What is even happening?

I think too much happens off-screen on this show, anyhow -- be it mystery elements or serial drama elements. That's ny number 1 beef with the series. It might be my only beef. I understand being presses for time and that the writers don't want to tip their hands, but I often feel a little dissatisfied with the resolutions, because of it.

If the acting weren't so strong, I rthink I would have given up the show. This cast manages to make me care about the characters, though. Darn them.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

But to be fair to the viewer, you have to show the scene at some point. All it would've taken was a quick scene where Landry had Tim confiscate the class's cells before a test, or somesuch. I have no problem with him having access to Landry's phone, because he was Landry's gofer.

Or a quick scene where Tim's says his phone is dead and he asked to use Veronica's cellphone, and then Veronica was distracted for a few seconds. I think they could have easily put something like that in one of the convenience store scenes. It didn't have to be super obvious if there were other things to distract the audience.

Right. Well, it would only have to happen prior to Keith and Veronica having the actual phone call.

Well, if it's not out there already, I probably shouldn't.

Alright. I suppose we'll find out soon enough.
