VMI 2.22 Not Pictured

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • Everyone graduates high school! Except for Weevil, who is arrested for Thumper’s murder.

  • Keith tracks down Woody to a hunting lodge and gets him arrested for child abuse!

  • While he’s doing that, Veronica identifies Woody’s third victim: Cassidy Casablancas…

  • Who, after stealing Mac’s clothes, gets ready to kill Veronica on the Neptune Grand roof…

  • But Logan saves Veronica, Veronica saves Logan, but nobody can saves Cassidy.

  • Elsewhere in the building, Aaron Echolls enjoys a post-coital cigar until Clarence Wiedman shoots him in the head.

  • Oh and Jackie’s not in Paris, she’s in New York City, waitressing and reuniting with the two-year-old son she’s apparently had this whole time.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs, Helen Zaltzman and Special Agent Alanna Bennett to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 22: Not Pictured, and probe such mysteries as Wallace’s glasses-wearing, whether Veronica would really be into Broadway and modern art, what Corny ends up doing in life, and what to use for a dramatic reveal if you don’t have a briefcase. Tote? Trash bag?

VMI 2.17 Plan B

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • Logan wins Woody Goodman’s essay contest! And the prize is a really boring-looking job at the mayor’s office, spotting Woody in the gym and sorting the mail…

  • ...But then he finds creepy secret video taken from within Woody’s house!

  • He also gets to plunge the detonator to explode Shark Field…

  • …With Thumper inside, chained to a urinal by some angry Fitzpatricks after, at long last, something goes Weevil’s way.

  • And it’s the school Sadie Hawkins dance, and what are school dances for if nobody kisses someone they weren’t supposed to be kissing, WALLACE?!?

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 17: Plan B, and consider such mysteries as how many different ways can you pronounce ‘urinal’, where to buy chloroform, and why this show insists on making Jenny watch Lamb and Woody doing reps but not anyone she wants to see doing reps doing reps.

VMI 2.12 Rashard and Wallace Go To White Castle

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • That hit and run that sent Wallace back to Neptune is being pinned on our favourite pure-hearted boy! And he has just five days to clear his name!

  • Veronica is on the case, and it involves a limo kidnapping scheme, infiltrating a frat party, and phone theft.

  • Oh and she also plants a camera in a church confessional booth, to find out which PCHer is working for the Fitzpatricks’ drug business and therefore killed Felix.

  • And it’s.…..Thumper! Who also seems to be the leader of the PCHers now, leaving Weevil powerless, beaten and bikeless.

  • Keith, meanwhile, is cooking hotdogs and listening to witness interviews about the bus crash.

  • And it’s karaoke night, again, so cover your ears and assume the brace position, you know the drill.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 12: Rashard and Wallace Go To White Castle, and probe such mysteries as why anyone would get into a limo they didn’t order, why there are so many hollowed-out books in this town, what Weevil would sing at karaoke, and being hit in the dick.

VMI 2.04 Green-Eyed Monster

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • Veronica’s latest client, Julie, is rich pretending to be not rich and hires Veronica to investigate her boyfriend, who she fears is not-rich pretending to be rich - keep up!

  • Keith is reluctantly investigating Alicia, who’s lying about a man from her past.

  • And Weevil’s earrings are more than very shiny: they’re important to the plot.

  • Meg is still in a coma, but nonetheless coming between Veronica and Duncan, who has been visiting her every day.

  • But before Veronica can get into that, she needs to get into Meg’s secret laptop before her controlling parents get wind of it.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 4: Green-Eyed Monster, and delve into such mysteries as how, if you’re on potential engagement/converting to Judaism terms with your beloved, would you not know whose home they live in; why ‘dim sum and then some’ is so very unappetising despite dim sum being on offer; how the hauntedness of a haunted house is measured; how to make an American Girl Doll’s cardigan fit an adult human; and why magical time-travelling shit is always happening in Scotland.

VMI 2.03 Cheatty Cheatty Bang Bang

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • Cassidy Casablancas hired Veronica to investigate whether his stepmother Kendall is violating her prenup by cheating on his father.

  • Shock discovery 1: Kendall IS cheating with...Logan! Well, we all knew already, but they didn’t.

  • Shock discovery 2: Richard Casablancas’s property fortune is a great big scam!

  • Jackie’s into Wallace, possibly also into some other dude, but not into Pride and Prejudice and not even Colin Firth can bring her round.

  • Keith and Alicia go on a romantic minibreak to see some jazz, eat some beef, and collide with someone from Alicia’s past…

  • And there’s another karaoke scene, so adopt the brace position, you know the drill by now.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 3: Cheatty Cheatty Bang Bang, and consider such mysteries as whether you could really get away with taking long lens photos in a small gym, what sexpeople have being doing to/with the lamps, and whether Veronica and Jackie are competing in a tiny-jacket-off (don't try to say this aloud).

VMI 2.02 Driver Ed

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • Veronica’s BUSY: serving coffee, investigating whether the driver crashed the bus deliberately, and ruining post-coital moments with Duncan.

  • So Detective Wallace handles a case all by himself, and guess what, it’s all in the hope of winning over the gorgeous but hostile Jackie - played by Tessa Thompson!

  • Logan fires guns with Mr Casablancas, and has sex with Mrs Casablancas - not at the same time.

  • Sheriff Lamb sucks SO much that Keith Mars decides to run for sheriff.

  • Kevin Smith shows up, as an opportunistic convenience store clerk selling bus crash souvenirs.

  • And a dead body washes up on the beach, on his palm is written VERONICA MARS - drink!

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 2: Driver Ed, and to probe such mysteries as whether it’s legal for journalists to pose as high school students, whether it’s wise to go to a shooting range with someone if you’re sleeping with their spouse, how many styles they can make Jackie wear at once, and why Duncan would offer to put Veronica on a ‘strict Nelly diet’ because she’s been listening to Radiohead.
