* JerkassToOne: He'll bully just about anyone below a certain popularity level, but Danny seems to be his favorite target. While Sam and Tucker do get some flack from him, it's usually collateral damage from him picking on Danny.

One episode even opens with Danny commenting that Dash's default response to a bad grade is to target him.
