Veronica Mars 2x22

[timepiececlock]

Wow to the dream sequence. Interesting that Logan is now Veronica's dream sweetheart (and OMG, his HAIR! I love that Veronica dreams him up as having sexy-cute-sticking-up-hair. Like, "Logan, this is what your hair would look like if Veronica controlled the universe."), and did anyone notice that Duncan was more animated in Veronica's dream than he was for most of the last two seasons? But anyway... WALLACE! NO! BFF, dude! Honestly, Wallace was a better friend to Veronica than Lilly seems to have been, though I'm sure Veronica doesn't see it that way.

I'm getting all nostalgic watching the credits. There will be a third season, right? THERE MUST BE A THIRD SEASON! I need my crime-solving crack and class/racial tensions and gang warfare (GangVeronica wins, natch) and Wallace goodness on a weekly basis.

Mr. Underhill? BWAHAHAHA! Someone's an LOTR fan.


Jesus they have the TINIEST graduating class I've ever seen. I graduated with 400 people. That's like what, 60?

Oh no, Weevil! Noooo... I can't believe I actually want you to get away with assisting a murder.

Wallace is going to Paris? YAY WALLACE! Just come back okay? We need you third season.

Wow, Jackie's not in Paris. Poor Wallace.

Not Pictured: Cassidy Casablancas
I knew it! My flist was right, it seems. He was one of the kids. Hm... I don't think that means he necessarily crashed the bus, though. Although Veronica's right, he is dangerous. Still... I'd hate to see Mac do to him what Veronica did to Logan last season if he's NOT guilty.

"It's liquid, it's courage, it's liquid courage." Mac looks really pretty tonight. I love the neckline of her dress.

Oh god Veronica, don't interrupt their sex. What, you think Cassidy's going to kill her in bed or something? ...Oh, I guess he probably has Chlamydia, though. That must be what Veronica's worried about. Yeah, I'm all on the up on the brilliance this morning. ...I feel a bad/awkward scene coming on.

"He's the killer." Damn, HOW does she jump to that conclusion again? What motivation would he have for killing the kids on the bus? I'm lost. I know that was the theory tossed around, but I don't remember the explanations for that theory.

GUN! He's got a gun! And that is not a wrongfully accused face, oh noes.

Don't go up to the roof. You're not thinking. ...Okay, and AssFace taunting you in the elevator isn't going to clarify your thinking anymore.

They had to die because they were going to spill about it? I hope that's not the reason. Money would be a better reason.

OH MY GOD, HE RAPED HER! OMG!

NO NO KEITH NO! ...I'm sure he wasn't on the plane, but NOOOOOO!

No one can type that perfectly on a tiny keypad, while not looking at the screen and having a gun to their head. Come on. Not even a single type-o?

GO LOGAN, GO!

Cassidy is really breaking the Evil Overlord rules, with all the talking he's doing. And you know he read the list. He has no excuse, no excuse!

Wow. He jumped. Well... that certainly makes sense. Then again, I believe NOTHING until we see the body. ...God Logan is hot this episode.

ETA: It occurred to me later that Cassidy jumping was a mirror of Logan last season. Funny that Logan couldn't give him a reason not to jump, then.


Oh Mac. I knew she wasn't dead, but still... the actress is doing great with this scene. She really looks that horrible.

Kendall/Aaron sex. Ick. Is Kendall going to kill Aaron? That'd be cool.

HAHAHA! He's dead! And it wasn't Kendall, it was the Kanes' man. Guess we all forgot that the Kanes could do that sort of thing, huh? Forgot about them entirely. They must have had this contingency plan waiting in case he was acquitted.

Heh. Duncan got him killed. Niiiiiiice. Though someone ought to tell Duncan he has an STD.

That Logan/Veronica pose really weird. Looks like they committed joint suicide.

I knew he was alive! ...And Logan didn't tell her so that she could hear it with her own ears? I suppose that's kind, but only acceptable because there was almost no time delay before she found out.

Is Veronica still going to Stanford? I thought she blew off her final to go to the trial?

...Oh, she's going to New York. Right.

How sad. He's not going with her.



Hm. That was quite interesting. Not as explosive as last season, but better than last week. I loved the Keith/Veronica and Veronica/Logan stuff. I'm heartbroken for Mac. I'm kind of sad for Wallace, but not for Jackie. He really doesn't know her at all, and that's finally coming out. I'm glad Jackie didn't just blow him off and let him get on the plane, though.

Really kind of interested to see Dick's reaction to all this. And with Kendall around next season, Dick will be around too.

I have a theory I'd like to throw out there now. Stake my claim among the theorists, if you will, though I kind of already made the claim two episodes ago:

Veronica and Logan will break up the beginnin of next season, the be back together by the end of the season. Lather, rinse, repeat. Welcome to the ups and downs of epicdom.

Which, by the way, IS TOTALLY OKAY. LET'S HAVE THAT PLEASE.


Random back-jumpy thought: I love how Logan's like the rescuing knight, only not. He shows up at the right moment and manages to do the rescue for Veronica, but otherwise he's completely inept at being badass and mostly he just provides distraction. He may not be the glamorous knight on a white horse with a broadsword, but he's a great boyfriend-shaped backup.

I loved how he talked her down. I'm glad he did, for both of them. Logan's really grown a lot this season, I think. Logan of last season would have shot Cassidy, or let Veronica do it.

Ah, but don't you remember:

DUNCAN: C.W.?
WIEDMAN: Done deal.

[rashaka.livejournal.com]

Forgot about it. What episode was that? Or rather, when in the timeline?

[jaina.livejournal.com]

It was at the end of the episode, when Wiedman called to report that Aaron was v. dead.

[rashaka.livejournal.com]

I saw that:

Heh. Duncan got him killed. Niiiiiiice. Though someone ought to tell Duncan he has an STD.

I thought you were telling me it was decided in a previous episode. What does that have to do with a third season?

[jaina.livejournal.com]

No, no, no...that's the dialogue (roughly approximated) from when Wiedman calls Duncan to report in.

Remember the name of the UPN/WB fusion network that debuts next year? *g* Yay meta-speak.

[rashaka.livejournal.com]

It took me forever to clue in to what you were talking about. Did I mention I've had 5 hours sleep?

I get it. CW is a done deal. :D

[jaina.livejournal.com]

And theoretically VMars on CW is too. :D Yay for lack of sleep! I do that all the time!

I am all sorts of WTF about the episode, but BWAH.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Heh. My graduating class was only sixty kids, and my little brother graduated with something like forty kids. Ah, country high schools. (Of course, that makes me wonder about Neptune.)

[rashaka.livejournal.com]

I'd buy that in some other school, but Neptune is a public school in a beachside community in Southern California half populated by insanely rich people. Kinda doesn't make sense here. But that's TV for you.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

I'd buy it a hell of a lot better if these people knew the other students they went to high school with better than they do. When you have a graduating class that small and you've mostly known these people since kindergarten, you know everything about them, or at least more than these people seem to.

I think she forwarded Mac's Cassidy's message to her. But that may just be my fanwank.

I knew he was alive! ...And Logan didn't tell her so that she could hear it with her own ears?
I don't think Logan actually knew. Keith came in late, saw Logan sleeping on the couch and went to his bed to crash.

[mswyrr]

I don't think Logan actually knew. Keith came in late, saw Logan sleeping on the couch and went to his bed to crash.

Yes. That is the general consensus over on the TWoP boards, too.

YES. So perfectly said, and I absolutely agree. That's why this show is so amazing...And why we need it back next season, darn it!

[rashaka.livejournal.com]

Hey, I just noticed you're a mod for neptune_video! I'm actually making my own video community today for Avatar: The Last Airbender fandom. I'm quite blatantly stealing tidbits from your Rules list on the info page. ;) Thanks.

[rashaka.livejournal.com]

Oh, and YES. We need it back. We want it back.
