For Season 3, Glen Murakami and Bruce Timm were considering doing an episode where Terry actually got to go on a date with Dana since she always got the short end of the stick when Terry went off to fight crime. This episode would have Terry breaking dates throughout the episode, but eventually succeeding at going on a date with Dana at the end of it. Glen pitched the idea to Alan Burnett, who tried to make it work as a story. Burnett made several changes that had Terry not only miss the date with Dana, but Dana then got so mad at Terry she dumped him. Terry then went to Max and poured his heart out to her and then Terry and Max ended up "making out". Timm and Murakami had the story faxed to them while they were in Japan and when Timm read it, he was furious and gave Burnett an angry phone call. Burnett said he had made the changes because 1) Dana was the nagging girlfriend and having Terry make out with someone else would be a surprise to the viewers and 2) to change the precedent of all those superhero TV series having the hero going through their life and the series with one steady girlfriend.
