It's like he's got Mom issues instead of Joss' dad issues.
And, random note: if you were an employee somewhere and your boss started running through going "Shred everything!" what would you do? Because my first instinct would be to run away, not to start shredding anything. Unless I knew shit, at which point it might be to go meet the cops and offer to plea for a reduced sentence...
I would definitely not shred anything, let alone everything.
I wasn't watching last year, but, damn, is a lot happening fast.
Poor Beaver.
MY SHOW!!!! sorry for the asscaps, but this episode was definitely the episode to convince me that RT isn't going to disappoint me with Veronica-wannabe-version-1.0.
the confrontations between Logan/Duncan and Logan/Veronica is exactly what i've been waiting for. i think Logan may have broken me with his "i hate him too, you know" comment.
snarkfests that rival V/L? V and Sheriff Lamb. "it means you're an adult now, kiddo!" "well...that makes one of us." hahahaha...
Pride and Prejudice 600 pages? My Norton is 250!
ETA: I mean, great episode!
I really liked tonight's episode, but I don't think it was as good as the last two. Plus, I miss Weevil. They're definitely starting the season by giving more questions than answers.
I agree - my show! I didn't recognize it in either of the first 2 eps.
I hate Veronica's new hair, but hopefully it's symbolic - halfway between the long innocent Veronica1.0 do and the short, sharp 2.0.
I also hate Jackie, but I think I'm supposed to, which probably means she'll be good after all.
I think I love the Beav Cassidy.. he's just so clueless and cute. I want to pinch his little cheeks.
Speaking of, how funny was V. - "Wallace and his little puddin' cup" and "Girls just love unicorns!" - I was dying.
Logan/Veronica - good stuff. V almost sounds like she really hates him. But at least she's expressing some emotion towards him, whereas last week and in the premiere there was just nothing. As a LoVe* shipper, I take that as a good sign.
- - yes, I know how obnoxious that is. I find it amusing.
What an excellent episode -- loved it.
Really enjoyed the Duncan-Logan confrontation. That totally needed to happen.
And poor Cassidy.
You didn't think that what's his name went after Veronica because Echolls hired him to do so? I just never thought it was hero-worship gone too far.
I loved how nobody but Veronica disliked Jackie. It's like we're seeing her through Veronica's pov so we can't see what everyone else likes about her.
My show is back!
The end. More in LJ. Actually, transplanted from LJ:
This season is very different from the first season, except I think it's different in a completely awesome way. Because the Alicia thing didn't get resolved in this episode. There are multiple plotlines spanning multiple episodes ending in multiple cliffhangers. No, wait, just the one cliffhanger per episode. The point is, it's reminding me of the first season of Alias. I don't even understand how Rob is getting away with it, really, because he's no longer balancing stand-alone and arc. It's all arc now, which, personally, I love, and I'm loving even more that he's tying it into the arc of the first season.
One thing I love about this show is that you don't realize what's a setup and what's not until you hit the payoff. It all feels throwaway at first. I have a sneaking suspicion that Boatloads of Fun Corp., as some have posited, may turn out to be more important than it seemed at first, especially with all this talk of investing and fraud. Plus, notice that Curly took a picture with a famous baseball star (who was not Terrence Cook). I have a feeling Woody Goodman may end being involved in all this business by the end. We've also met the county assessor, a position I knew nothing about. Rob is going to great pains to show us the corruption of the inner workings of the Neptune civil government, and this will most certainly come into play during the county supervisor election, and when Keith actually joins that government (because, really, would we go through all this if Keith doesn't get to be sheriff?). I see all these pieces being laid out, but I don't even know what game we're playing. I get the feeling things we never expected to be tied together are going to end up being tied together, which is what was shown in the microcosm of this episode. You investigate one thing, and you discover something else. And it's never what you expect.
I love Cassidy. Which means horrible things are going to happen to the sweet boy.
Daddy's escape = funny.
Blah blah blah... Aww. Logan gets weepy! Liked the confrontations.
Uh-oh. Alicia with a dark past? Can't one decent mother figure on the show remain untainted?
Yeah. That. @@. (I love that the eyeroll is an AT-AT.)
I think the more Veronica hates Jackie, the more I like Jackie.
What Plei said, plus I really liked the Logan-Duncan exchange.
