VMI 2.21 Happy Go Lucky

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • There have been some rough episodes of Veronica Mars, but this has to be one of the roughest. Aaron fucking Echolls is found innocent on all charges!

  • And it’s somehow something to do with Veronica getting chlamydia? Fuck! Off!!

  • Woody Goodman is revealed to be a child abuser, and some of the kids in the bus crash were his victims.

  • As was Lucky the janitor, who starts firing a gun at the school, then is shot dead.

  • Terrence Cook is exonerated from the bus crash, but condemned to work at the casino for at least a decade.

  • Jackie LEAVES without even saying goodbye.

  • And then, after all that trauma, Veronica has to take finals! It’s too much!

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 21: Happy Go Lucky, delving into such mysteries as to whether Woody could have chosen a more disgusting password, what’s actually supposed to happen in court when someone shouts “Objection!” and why a load of physical evidence, witnesses and legal procedure <<< CHLAMYDIA. We have an XL edition of The LoDown to deal with all the legal bullshit in this episode.

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 2.10 One Angry Veronica

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • OMG, Meg gives birth to Duncan’s baby and then DIES.

  • And Wallace comes back from Chicago!

  • But that’s all in the last couple of minutes of the show!

  • Before that, we’ve got Veronica doing jury duty and ruining everyone else’s holidays in her pursuit of The Truth…

  • The sex tapes that implicate Aaron Echolls in Lilly Kane’s murder have been stolen from the evidence locker, and TWO of Veronica’s ex-boyfriends are involved…

  • And Lamb is shirtless and sweaty and loving himself, merrrry Christmas everyone.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 10: One Angry Veronica, and play judge and jury on such mysteries as the likelihood of Neptune being universally ridiculed as ‘Bozoville’, whether $50,000 is a high enough price for wrecking your whole career and a murder trial, why the Marses are so bad at not compromising evidence or tainting juries, and whether shirtless sweaty Lamb is hot or not.

VMI 2.06 Rat Saw God

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • Logan gets arrested for Felix’s murder, is put in a jail cell with his dad, and his house is burned down. Oof!

  • Abel Koontz turns up - he needs Veronica to find his daughter Amelia DeLongpre, so he can see her before he dies.

  • Amelia took her $3m of Kane fake confession payout, and spent it on international good times - then disappeared in the midst of a foam party in Ibiza.

  • Keith loses the sheriff race but keeps sniffing around the bus crash case - and finds a strange clue in the wreckage.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 6: Rat Saw God, and probe such mysteries as Clarence Wiedman’s computer setup, Clarence Wiedman’s dressalike assistant, Clarence Wiedman’s JOKE, Clarence and Veronica’s buddy road trip movie (well in our dreams)... We also wonder about the PCHers’ supposed Panty Club, dads vs dads, Cliff being the best worst lawyer, and Weevil’s tattoo of a dog in a hat.

VMI 1.17 Kanes and Abel's

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • Veronica tracks down Abel Koontz’s daughter and hides her in a motel.

  • Veronica also grudgingly takes on the case of uppity student Sabrina, who is being harrassed to the detriment of her midterms.

  • Jake and Celeste Kane did some covering up on the night of Lilly’s death, with the help of Clarence Wiedman.

  • Who is all over the place spooking everybody in this episode, keeping it subtle and undercover by wearing a very noticeable hat.

  • And! There’s another PI in town - Vinnie Van Lowe. He has a fake moustache and no morals. But he sure can sing Hall and Oates like a champ.
