VMI 1.01: Pilot

Veronica Mars and her long long lens

Veronica Mars and her long long lens

A Long Time Ago on Veronica Mars:

  • Wallace got duct taped to the school flagpole by Weevil

  • Keith inquired about the identity of your daddy

  • Logan smashed Veronica’s headlights with a crowbar

  • Veronica tried to cram three episodes-worth of backstory about her murdered best friend, her missing mom and her social ostracism into forty minutes - in between staking out the Camelot Motel, framing Logan for having a bong on school grounds, colluding with the fire chief to swap out police evidence, and cutting Wallace down from that flagpole. She’s a busy kid.

  • Also, Duncan… existed. Barely.  

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman as they investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 1: Pilot, and ponder such mysteries as how to get duct tape off your bathing suit region, what happened to the original Backup dog, and how long it would really take to get a bespoke ceramic bong made.
