What is even happening?

And I also thought the first mention of Veronica getting an STD was last week when the doctor told her.
Last week was the first mention of anyone having chlamydia on the show Nora, but it wasn't the first mention of chlamydia in the season. It was set up before Christmas.

Okay, so it's not that Veronica was worried that she had chlamydia but that Gia had made that remark. (So, possibly suggesting that at some point in her life she'd overheard something that Woody said and misunderstood?)

Because books.

And Gia says something like she's sure it's a flower and that they "have it growing on a trellis at their beach house," so I think it's really likely that was a clue wrapped in a joke, and Woody is the original source.

Okay, I remember it got talked about in health now, but at this point in the season, to find out only last week that Veronica has it still seems...dumb. Because with everything else to cover, where are they going to go with that next week? And it still works as shock value for the trial.

Gotcha.

No. I think it was the writers being sly back at the time of NPBiaC. By then they should have known they'd have Woody be a molesting monster. They'd know chlamydia was going to be part of the evidence trail. They planted a mention of it in a joke (Gia was probably thinking of Clematis [link] as a throw away clue.

Okay, I remember it got talked about in health now, but at this point in the season, to find out only last week that Veronica has it still seems...dumb.

I doubt they originally intended to use it in the trial. I think it's a clue to the molestation trail, and a link that connects the bus crash to Woody and/or his victims, AND then they said, why not humiliate Veronica with it at trial too, because Aaron totally would do that. Look at how he uses his own son.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

one thing that no one's brought up yet. in the preview when V is confronting the bus crash suspect with the gun she's really upset. do we really think she'd be that upset if it were Beav? of course, that confrontation could be V jumping to the wrong conclusion(again), but yeah. that, among other things, is really preventing me from jumping on the Beav is a psycho killer.

Who would upset her more than someone she considers a friend or at least an occasional ally? Unless you think it's Logan or Weevil (or Wallace or Keith).

Or Duncan.

I was thinking that, too, but it's so hard to know without context. She could be crying because her life is in danger, or someone else's is, and the "You're the one" revelation could simply be coincidental.

I think it's a clue to the molestation trail, and a link that connects the bus crash to Woody and/or his victims

But that's my point. What trail? Aside from the one we're creating? We still don't know definitively that Meg ever slept with Lucky. We don't know that Duncan *didn't* have sex with Kendall.

I know, I know, I'm being picky, but it seems like a big fat wriggling red herring, and it's making me cranky.
