What is even happening?

Oh, sure, I assume that he was molested, but I just wondered if we'd actually been given confirmation of that, other than the possible oblique foot-bleaching chlamydia thing.

I think his wearing the catcher's mask, and sending all the weird e-mails to Woody are what we're going to get.

Our wings are not tired.

I finally had a chance to catch up on all the post finale posts.

Didn't even think for a moment that Keith had died. DH doesn't watch the show but he happened to be home. He looked over at me when the plane went boom and I told him killing Keith wasn't one of the options. KB did a hell of a job though. And indeed Cassidy broke me with his final words.

The briefcase. Don't know if it's Cliff's. It doesn't seem to me that Keith would stand up Veronica unless it was really important. Considering how fragile she is at the moment, really important would have to involve danger to Veronica or someone she loves. Nothing short of that would work.

I've not made up my mind if I'm in for next year. And if I do decide to watch I may wait and do the marathon thing just before the finale.

I adore so many of the characters and love the snappy dialogue. But really it's further along the bleak curve than I like. Ya know if I wanted rape and child abuse in my entertainment I'd watch SVU or something. Which brings me back to the holding off and doing a marathon viewing. That was the way I did S1 and it was more satisfying for me than S2.

I'll mull over the summer. And enjoy the speculation.

I got to rewatch this afternoon thanks to our UPN's Sundays at 4 p.m. reairing.

One thing I noticed was that Kendall tells Logan and Veronica she has a *business proposition* for Keith. Which could mean something, or she could have been simply covering for whatever her real purpose was.

With Keith, though, she's very clear -- she needs him to *do something for her*. It's *important* and it needs to be done *right now*.

Given her wording, I can't see it be something to do with Veronica's safety, or Keith's, since Kendall puts the focus on herself. (Shocker.) Still baffled about what it might be, though.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Laura, you may want to simply wait and see how the first few episodes turn out. It's possible Rob may reign in that bleakness in an attempt to get new viewers since the network's asked him to basically use the premiere as sort of a pilot.

Is anyone wondering about Kendall's involvement with Logan. I mean, the boy's hot. I'm not denying it. But since the Fitzhoodlums and the PCHers framed him for Felix's murder, I'm wondering how much of her selection had to do with his hotness, and how much had to do with keeping an eye on him. Also, if she was on CW's payroll, to make sure Aaron was in his suite at killing time, could she have been on CW's payroll for longer, and been keeping a contact with the Echolls in general, for things the Kanes wanted done?

If Keith so much as gets a hangnail working on her business proposition, I'llVeronica will kill her.

I think this is key. Kendall's in this for Kendall, no matter what the actual job is.

But who are suggesting paid her to do it? Not Aaron, surely. Unless you think the Fitzhoodlums (hee!) wanted her to.

I'm thinking the Fitzhoodlums wanted her to do him it. Maybe not a pay situation, but we don't know all that much about her connection with them, other than that she was working as the roper in long con with Cormac, and took the rap for him. (Wrap? Rap?)

Or...

Unrelated to the Fitzpatricks, maybe she has been on CW's payroll?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I have to say that I usually TIVO vm and watch 2 or 3 episodes in a row. The momentum feels , better,stronger. and the bleak seems to have a better place.

and although I know exactly what I mean... it seems clear as mud in that sentence.

The connection between Kendall and Cormac must be quite significant because taking the rap for him is above and beyond friendship or a long con.
