What is even happening?

We're supposed to hear this week, right?
I don't know. I've tried not to follow along too too closely, because worrying about the fate of the series was ruining my enjoyment of the show.

Art Crawl!!!

BTW, WTF with the promo from last week? Was there ANYTHING in it that pertained to this episode?

I don't think that there was even a smidgen of a scene from this week's episode in the promo.

Because books.

I don't think that there was even a smidgen of a scene from this week's episode in the promo.

Me, too.

I disremember the promo.

I just watched it. There was a snippet with Logan's friend, the desk clerk. I think the rest of the scenes were actually from previous episodes, except maybe one where Veronica asks Logan if something is wrong, and he answers, "Yeah." It was a relationship-based promo, more than strictly an episode promo. The announcer said something along the lines of, "Their relationship isn't broken but it's starting to crack." (not exact)

Right. And there really wasn't anything in the episode that related to it. And nothing in the promo about the cheating all around. (Accusations of, Wallace's recovery from, Harmony & Keith.)

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.

Of course it was the TA. Sigh.

That part actually worked for me. After Veronica showing him up constantly this year, it was nice to see that he actually has some brains and didn't get his position by accident. In a way, it was a test. If Veronica was able to figure it out, she'd clear her name and discover the professor's affair. If she failed, then she wasn't worthy of the praise the professor was giving her (in the TA's eyes) and a thorn in his (the TA) side is removed. It wasn't particularly nice, but it made perfect sense to me.

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

I agree, Kalshane. I loved that it was a big elaborate test and that, like you said, Veronica was either good enough to figure it out, or she wasn't.

Cindy! I loved this episode too! Let's stay together!

Lemme tell you since -- oh P-C -- since you made me watch it...
