The more I think about it, the more I like the way one mystery led into the next. There are a lot of possible suspects for the dean's murder, and some of them could be connected to the Greek system chaos from the first arc.

Also forgot to mention how much I loved Logan's lines about being around if Veronica needed him, but how she never does. Heartbreaking. Logan = total woobie. Veronica's crying in the shower bit was very in character, too.

Logan breaks my heart. When I saw him with the bat and looking at the deputy's I knew what he was up to.

Except that she basically blew him off at the end of last week's ep, so why was she crying?

I think last week she may have been acting out of little residual pissiness about him hiring the bodyguard. Veronica definitely has a tendency to go incommunicado when she's hurt or angry -- look at her (in that same episode? the one before?) when she was angry with both Logan and Keith. She actually took herself out of Keith's presence by moving into the dorm, and hadn't been answering Logan's calls. For someone who relies so often on instant communication -- the cell phone, the text message -- when she's in trouble, and knows how to track anyone down when she wants to talk to them, it's interesting to me that one of her defenses is to shut herself away from people when she's upset, rather than lashing out.

In tonight's episode I think she realized that she really hurt Logan, and that their issues have as much to do with her as with him. I think she was genuinely taken by surprise that he broke up with her, because I think she really believes, most of the time, that she's in control. Either that or she wants to believe it.

Dude, I could not love Logan more than I do right now.

I'm a simple girl, and vengeance makes me *very* happy.

this. so very much this. that scene alone was enough to make me giddy about this episode.

knew the shoes from the trailer/cold open belonged to Moe. so was not surprised when he was in on the rapes. i was telling V to stop drinking the tea immediately and then screaming at her to CALL LOGAN OMG!!! when the drug started taking effect.

also? Mercer was one creepy bastard and if V didn't love unicorns before now, she'd have a good reason.

last, but not least. i love Mac. her shirt at the party was classic!!

I have to say, that when Veronica was meeting with her gang and giving out tasks I was surprised that she trusted Moe. (Possibly because so many of us have suspected him.)

Loved the end -- one mystery nicely dovetailing into the other. Although the lack of promos has me worried that we're onto the winter hiatus.

Um, are we?

we are, indeed. january will be the next time we see some action.

She's totally Buffy, y'all.

Except that she basically blew him off at the end of last week's ep, so why was she crying?

She keeps people at a distance -- not because she doesn't care about them, but because her past has laid the pattern where the people she cares about the most, the people she's closest to, are the ones who have hurt her beyond repair.

She pushes away the people she cares about the most. That's what she'd been doing with Logan, but it doesn't mean that she didn't care about him. Quite the opposite, I'd say.

I'll say it again -- she's Buffy.

Yeah, she pushes the people she cares about away AND I also think her response to being in danger is to prove that she doesn't need help. So, it was a doubly doomed relationship.
