Overall, Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe is almost comedically uninterested in the fates of the rest of the supporting cast. However, it's a shame that Daria couldn't play a larger role in the film. It's a brief cameo for the character, but one that makes sense given her history with the characters. As Beavis and Butt-Head reached its original ending in 1997, Daria was given her own spin-off series - simply titled Daria - that became a critically-acclaimed hit and wound up running for five seasons (with two feature-length specials sprinkled throughout).
A quiet and clever young woman whose perpetual stoic nature contrasted against the loud idiocy of the show's title characters, Daria quickly became a fan favorite part of the show. This is actually a pretty solid reference to Daria's history with Beavis and Butt-Head as the character was originally conceived as a recurring character in the duo's show before becoming a breakout star in her own right. Among the group can be spotted Daria - who flashes a smile at their pending punishment and appears just as disappointed as the rest of the group when the pair are instead sent to Space Camp as their "punishment." This overjoys some of the audience in the courthouse, including frequent antagonists from the original series Coach Buzzcut and Principal McVicker.
This quickly gets them arrested and set before a judge, who seemingly is set to give them an incredibly harsh punishment. In doing so - turning a robotic leg set to kick a football into an easy way to send Beavis flying through the air from a particularly brutal shot to the groin - the duo cause massive damage to the building and destroy almost all of the other experiments.
In the film, Beavis and Butt-Head quickly disrupt a science fair that promises to take the winners to NASA Space Camp.
