In part, I'm wondering what Kendall is up to, in general.

Once Kendall made it plain she wanted a Sugar Daddy, and Logan called her on it, and made it plain he wasn't interested in playing Sugar Daddy, she seemed to lose complete interest in him, unless it suited her (non-sexual) needs. The only times I can remember her turning her shine back on him since then is when she wanted to sell something (like Big Dick's Mazzarati) to get money, or when she wanted to get in the apartment, so she could retrieve Duncan's hair from the drain.

The more I know about Kendall, the less I think she's ever been interested enough in this teenager, hot though he may be, to respond to a late night booty call because it suits him, at least without some other, ulterior motive. It seems to me she's the one who would do the summoning, not be summoned.

Okay, so, basic question: Who was the bomb on the bus targeting?

Can we discount Veronica as a target? Is the gay kid who was going to out someone (possibly Woody?) the most likely/plausible theory at the moment? Another question though - if Woody and Meg's parents are involved in some twisted sex pervert ring, wouldn't Woody have made sure that Meg wasn't on the bus, like he did with Gia?

I have a horrible feeling that the bus crash is going to end up being an accident, or the real target wasn't on it or something, because tv likes to hurt my brain.

cereal...

Almost everyone thinks Kendall is, as Logan said, incapable of making herself cereal without a staff. Veronica knows that's not the case, and Kendall tried to make it clear to Beaver that it isn't the case, but most people think she's nothing but a cheerleader bimbo who was lucky enough to marry into money.

Kendall is a con-artist. What's the con, other than getting Big Dick to marry her, in the first place?

Has there been any connection between Woody and the Fitzpatricks so far? I misremember.

And whatever the original con was, she's definitely in on the con with Beaver now, seeing as how she made the deal with Aaron. Of course, that doesn't mean she can't have her finger in more than one pie.

I think so. Last week, I would have said, "Yes," whole-heartedly, but since Logan identified that sketch Keith was having Veronica mail out, as Aaron's cellmate, I can't be certain, any more. I still think it is way too obvious for Aaron to be behind the crash though, although he could be tangentially involved.

Is the gay kid who was going to out someone (possibly Woody?) the most likely/plausible theory at the moment?

I think so. And Woody's not the only character with the potential to be outed. Cassidy is, as well. I still think Cassidy is a sex abuse survivor, but that's more based on gut than fact.

Another question though - if Woody and Meg's parents are involved in some twisted sex pervert ring, wouldn't Woody have made sure that Meg wasn't on the bus, like he did with Gia?

I doubt they are involved all together. I think it's almost an either/or situation, or a look-at-all-the-unrelated-creeps situation. Whatever is up with the Mannings is probably separate from whatever is up with Woody, because it was made plain to us that the Mannings are pretty much only involved with their church. Although I've been wondering about Mrs. Woodman. Is her psycho-neat freak weirdo mean-mom persona weird enough to indicate she could be falling in with the Mannings' cult? Could she have done so in reaction to finding out Woody's either a molestor and/or an adulterer (with adult partners, that is)?

Accident how? Like the bomb should have been in the limo, or what?

We know there was an explosion before the bus went off the cliff. It seems likely it was timed for when the bus was at that point on the PCH.

It seems at least possible and probably likely that it was in the Sharks' Premium Package that Pete won (which would have gotten it on the bus), threw away (which would have meant nobody died), but then Dick picked up and gave (I say unknowingly) to Betina, which got it back on the bus.

BTW, I have a sneaking suspicion that Wallace or Jackie will have chlamydia soon. There had to be a reason to show us the after-prom scene.

This is pretty much what I think. I just worry that because it's the most obvious explanation of the events, it's not going to turn out to be the right one.

ETA -

And Woody's not the only character with the potential to be outed. Cassidy is, as well.

But would outing him count as 'the outing to end all outings' that he was posting about?

---

I don't know. I didn't give much thought to my mayor, when I was in high school (who was not a child molestor as far as I know, but was gay). It would have generated more high school buzz if the richest kid in town had been outed.

In one recent episode -- the one before the Blow Up Thumper episode, I think -- Woody was on the phone with the Fitzpatrick priest, talking about some land issue, when Keith showed up at his (Woody's) office.

Do transcripts exist? I could find it faster that way.

Also, Liam works for the Mayor's construction company.
