I'm sorry, I made a confused reading of the pointiness issue, because you said (or I thought you did, I'm not sure now) that you didn't think we'd find out how her drink was spiked.

I think bon was saying it would have been pointless if someone hadn't put that hair there in order to have an opportunity to drug the drink.

I disagree because I think it could have been drugged before, but without her getting up to exchange the pasta, we'd know it had to have been done before she sat down.

I see now why you [eta: Cindy] would have thought that. What I think is the following: we were shown a possible way her drink could have been spiked. Even though it is unlikely under the circumstances, it is still the most likely scenario. Moreover, showing us any more information about how it happened would just make it look stupider, given the possibilities (someone spiked it in a crowd, or conspired with her server). So I think her drink was spiked when she was dealing with the hair, and that's all they wrote.

Who are Moe and Chip? I don't think I've been paying enough attention to minor characters' names.

Moe is the R.A., Chip is the frat boy we first met last year in "The Rapes of Graff".

If someone is stalking Veronica, it's just a matter of time until she accidentally gives them an opportunity. It's a college food service, so I'm somehow thinking that hair (and worse) in the food isn't all that out of the ordinary. So I vote Occam's Razor.

Were the Theta's the sorority that Veronica infiltrated?

Zeta Theta Beta.

I'm beginning to feel like I'm going to have to tag this: I really do like Veronica Mars but...

The mystery this week was lah-hame. Both really simplistic and really messy.

I thought the A plot was weak too, which is why I didn't think the episode, while good, wasn't as good as last week's.
