It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

It took me 'till this morning to remember who the gir's father was, so of course I scurried here to confirm.

Also, WHEE continuity! The show remembers things I don't.

I found that teacher completely unbearable, in an "OMG we get it she's MEAN" way.

But Veronica's "And for my next trick!" bit was awesome.

Nora - nice tag! Hee.

Okay, the promo for next week is up at the UPN site.

Way to show that you've just been drinking heavily since the WB/UPN merger news came out, UPN dudes.

Well, a lot of jobs are going to be cut, and The WB is much better at creating promos than UPN.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

And it was especially stupid since the promo was all "To prove her innocence, Veronica will..." and we just watched the episode where Veronica was never really a suspect.

LOVED this episode. Was feeling kinda down on this season (all "man, the second season is never any good, what HAPPENED?") until last week and this week were both pretty good. I love the continuity! And the recurring characters! So much! Logan was so creepy, just spot-on, and the Veronica/Weevil bit at the end made me a tiny bit of a 'shipper. And Mac/Beav!! So adorable!

My only issue was as smonster said--the teacher was a little over the top. We GET it, she's MEAN. Calling Jackie trash to her face is bad enough, but doing it in front of a crowd of people crosses the line to "Um, did you take your CRAZY PILLS today, lady?"

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Finally got a chance to watch my recording. Chiming in with the love of the episode. And it's two episodes in a row where I actually liked Jackie, which I thought was impossible. Poor Keith. The man's going to have nothing left to believe in. The Logan storyline also had me wondering what he was up to until the end.

Great to see Mac again though I wish we saw more of her. Still not thrilled with the Beaver-relationship angle, though this episode made me much more receptive. Have no idea what the Sally thing he was talking about was, though. Maybe another time Dick managed to embarass himself. I loved that Logan was simply amused by the whole thing.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Mac and Beaver together are both cute and kind of scary. They're like the cuddley, slightly less evil version of Vamp!Willow&Xander. I wouldn't be scared to meet them in a dark alley, but I *would* most certainly fear getting on their bad side.

One Hot Burrito!

When I was watching the Logan thing, I wasn't even thinking about what he was up to. I just figured it for some shallow attempt to replace Veronica with a Veronica-surrogate. Given that he was so blatantly hitting on her at the beginning.

But at the end, totally a new level of what was going on. And I didn't even recognize the guy at first. Just a "Oh crap, that GUY!"

Right.

I had the same thoughts and I totally didn't recognize the guy but could tell that I was SUPPOSED TO.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

The reaction to Logan bits in the episode in the LJ land has been interesting to read. I was surprised that there were a lot of people who thought he was being genuinely charming and adorable toward Hannah, because Logan with Hannah felt *incredibly* off and to me right from the start, superficially charming but with the undercurrent of "arrrrghh! creepy!". So much so that when we got the reveal, it was a mixture of a surprise and a bit of relief, because his weird behavior finally made sense *and* was in character.

My absolute favorite moment in the Mac/Beaver plot was the lighter-waving when Dick stumbled out of the car. They are deathly adorable and yeah--agree with Plei that you wouldn't want to cross them.
