I look more rad than Lutheranism

Weevil had some right to it, but I don't think he had as much as Duncan had. Felix was his dear friend. He was not Weevil's actual brother.

But was there anyone else to stand up for Felix?

And AmyLiz says what I was going to. Duncan had Aaron killed because justice wasn't coming through any other channel. Weevil is in the exact same position. Justice for Felix's murder wasn't coming from the legal system, and apparently no one else (blood family or otherwise) was going to stand up for Felix, and Weevil loved him.

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.

Was I the only one who thought Logan was going to pull a Giles/Gunn, and follow up his "you're not a killer" with a "but I am" and shoot Cassidy?

Nope. I was there too. I was glad they didn't do it, though.

The Mannings offering a reward- made sense. Meg was the only person on the bus that had a family in the position to make such a reward offer.

Yeah. I was thinking about that this morning. She was the only 09er. All the other families involved were poor. Still, with all the other weirdness involving the Mannings this year, it naturally raised questions and probably could have been handled a little better to not make it seem like a clue of some kind.

Did no one else think Kendall just had a big ol case o' money?

I did for a second. But then I realized Keith would never abandon his daughter at the airport over money.

I also loved the principal's comments to Veronica at graduation. I'm so glad he wasn't eaten by a giant snake. I would have liked him to speak up and demand that Weevil be allowed to get his diploma but that's too much to hope for.

Yes. On both counts. I also loved that Veronica got cheered by her friends and didn't get booed by anyone else. It was as close to a Class Protector moment as was possible in this verse.

But the arguement being made is justice hadn't failed yet. Veronica was setting up the case against Thumper and had gotten Lamb to agree to arrest him, but Weevil jumped the gun and decided to punish Thumper himself.

But if it was LOTS of money, they could both just fly first class later in the day!

...

Okay, maybe I'm reaching because I was too stupid to get that they were setting up a big McGuffin for next season.

The evil is this way?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

He seems to be supremely confident that they'll be renewed.

Because books.

Wow. That answers a lot of questions.

What is even happening?

Generally speaking, it's wise to do it in such a way that leaves a slam-dunk suspect, or makes it look like a suicide. And not to do it when a potential witness just left the room.
Nutty, I'm pretty sure Kendall wasn't there out of Aaron Echolls lust. It was her job. And this time, her employer was CW.
Also, correct me if I'm misremembering, but "the clap" is gonorrhea, not chlamydia, right? Keith called it the clap.

You're right. And I've seen the same mistake all over the net, the last week or two. When I rewatched that scene, it did seem possible to me that Keith was listing both the clap, as well as two instances of chlamydia. Whether it was a factual fault in the writing or a fault of sloppy delivery, it wasn't clear.

And AmyLiz says what I was going to. Duncan had Aaron killed because justice wasn't coming through any other channel. Weevil is in the exact same position. Justice for Felix's murder wasn't coming from the legal system, and apparently no one else (blood family or otherwise) was going to stand up for Felix, and Weevil loved him.

But that's exactly my point, Teppy. No further legal justice was possible, where Aaron/Lilly was concerned. That was not the case with Thumper/Felix, which is why Weevil had less of a right than Duncan did. Not "no right" just less of one.

The law could no longer avenge Lilly Kane. That's just not true where Felix's death was concerned. Where Felix was concerned, the law was disinclined to work up a sweat over it, but not only was legal justice still a possibility, Veronica was still on the case, AND Weevil knew that.

That is true. I wasn't paying attention.

Don't read if you want to be completely pure. It answers a couple of the "cliffhangers" from last night and talks about casting for next season.
