My latest fear is that he won't, and we'll get a big fat "To be continued" season finale

He won't do that. He'll certainly wrap up the bus crash mystery, but I wouldn't be surprised if there are still some loose ends from other other *cough* spy pen *cough* plotlines hanging around.

You all enjoyed jascott's picspam before, so here's this week's.

I adore and completely agree with her "Exact Location of Pretty."

OK, I'm abandoning my "Beaver caused the bus crash" theory because Beav's being way too cute in this episode and there is no way RT is gonna do a 180 and go, "A-HA!" at Beaver in the next episode.

See, and like others, this is exactly why I'm worried about Beaver! Though I continue to believe he couldn't have done it.

It doesn't seem like they should be able to introduce that sort of information, but if they wanted to show that Veronica was somehow careless in her sex life, to back up their assertion that she was coming onto Aaron.

Maybe AARON is the chlamydia source! :)

I think Veronica/Keith are going to take the recording to Mac to see if she can do some computer-thingy to recover the edited-out portion. I think she does and realizes that it’s Beaver.

Ooh. Now I'm going to be kinda disappointed if that DOESN"T happen.

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.

Wow, now that would certainly be continuity. Damn.

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?

Why not? Though if it were Aaron, or Duncan, she'd be pretty upset too...:) I think it was TOTALLLY WALLACE, DUDE!

I think everybody here has pretty much decided Beaver is the third voice on the tape, but if anybody still thinks it's Lucky, well: we know he's over 21, and in fact was so a year ago (the keg Logan wanted delivered was for one of the beach parties from season 1, I'm guessing) which means at least 3-4 years older than the other known victims. Since little league teams don't span a 3-year age difference (I tihnk, 10-year-olds and 7-year-olds being WAY different in size/strength/etc), they couldn't have all been on the same team.

QED.

Only reason to post is to show off my (finally) new tag:

Nobody likes a blond in a hamsterball.

By far my favorite line (and so well delivered by KB) from this full-of-good-lines-and-other-good-things episode. I was expecting a bit more tension between Logan and Veronica post teary-elevator scene from last week but I suppose there aren't enough eps left to allow for it. And I enjoyed the moment where Lamb had to tell Keith he was right about Woody skipping town. The courtroom scenes took me out of the story because I thought they were wayyy too unrealistic (what does V's STD have to do with her testimony, et. al.) but the scene of Veronica giving up her scholarship to sit in the courtroom and hear the verdict was all about her friendship with Lily which I thought went nicely with the previous scene with Wallace. It struck me as very Buffy-esque though I'm not sure why, and I loved it.

BTW, I also got a Spanish version of VM. I had to download it again yesterday.

I think I've figured out the mystery. I'm so nearly sure, I'm not going to post it here, though. I'm thinking about putting it in lj.

So, you just came in here to taunt me?

Yes, because you must conform or die. Seriously, you can read my LJ, Narrator. You can even comment in it. I don't screen out anonymous (non-lj) posters, because of the off chance that someone like you, white wings, or newt will delurk.

I'm just getting started on the draft, so there's nothing yet. This is a lot like math. I know the answer, but I don't know why.

...

P-C, if you're around, how did you manage to black-out text in your LJ? You did it, probably to spoiler font information you learned at Marsathon, or something. However you coded it, you had a big, black bar over the sensitive text. If you have a second, could you let me know. I would like to use that code, if I can.
