Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I think the teenage boy is the Dean's son from a previous marriage. The younger boy, the one who needed the bone marrow, is his stepson.

Because books.

This is what I thought.

I think part of my problem is, I don't really care who killed the dean. I actually don't think Veronica does either.

Neither do I, AmyLiz. It feels like more of a side project, a passing fancy, for her. Which is sad, because I was looking forward to this murder mystery. I'm glad Keith cares, though.

I think Keith is intrigued, but then he is getting paid for it. And since we haven't seen him working on other, more interesting cases, I'm looking at it like he's bored.

I'm sad. I love Veronica and Keith, but everything feels off. Where's Wallace? Where's Mac?

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

they have sorely underused Wallace this season. SORELY. i don't care about freaking actor contracts. i shouldn't be wondering where Veronica's BEST FRIEND is in every episode. i just shouldn't.

I'm getting a bit nervous about the final block of episodes this season, since they're going to be all stand-alone mysteries. I'm afraid that means more of the Logan/Veronica angsty emo hamsterwheel, which has been bugging me for a while.

Yes, I know that relationship stuff is important to character development, but why does it have to be all romantic/sexual relationships? I'm much more interested in seeing Veronica interact with Mac, or Wallace or Keith than with any love interest at this point.

Art Crawl!!!

Well, I'm very interested in seeing next week's episode. I saw the opening scene AND the Director's Cut and it looks good.

I miss Wallace.

That is all.

Also, I just went to the CW website to look at the opening scene/director's cut, and looked at the name of last week's ep, which was "There's Got to be a Morning After Pill" which definitely indicates it's more than marketing fucking THAT "Plan B v. RU-486" situation up.

And, jiminy! There's a lot of stuff going on there. Between the preview, the opening scene, AND the director's cut, you've got your A, B, and C plots there, and potentially another thread, if (wf) none of those three have anything to do with the Dean O'Dell mystery, which it didn't look like they did, but could work out to do.

The writers did know the difference, but they liked the pun, so.
