I liked this episode much more than last week. Much more subtle, and Teddy Dunn actually did a smashing job. If this show lasts, perhaps he'll get the DB award for Most Improved.
I still like Jackie.
I am a large, semi-muscular man. I can take it. Don't hide behind Mal 'cause you know he'll shoot it down for you. Tell me.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I was shocked to realize that when Veronica/Duncan suffers its sudden yet inevitable demise, I will be sad.

Kickass episode, I say.

No. I'm pretty sure he burned a recording of the crash message, since that's what he was talking to Lamb about. I can't imagine Keith just handing evidence of Lamb blackmailing someone back to them.
I meant, like Bon Bon said, that Keith unintentionally gave him the wrong recording. Didn't Veronica just play the crash message directly from her cell phone? If so, there wouldn't even be a CD. I thought that Keith got all mixed up.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Was it the girl's cellphone that Veronica played for her dad, or did she forward the message to hers? If you can forward between different phones, you could also be able to forward to an email account, and then you should have an MPEG or an OGG or whatever that could be burned....

I just rewatched. Veronica definitely forwarded the girl's message to her own cell when she first heard it. Then, in the last act, she plays it for her dad from her own cell. Immediately after that, Duncan shows up. There's no way Keith could have gotten a CD of the recording. Now, why he would give the sheriff a CD marked "Homecoming Request" I do not know. Maybe he wasn't paying attention to what Veronica played for him?

She plays it from the house phone in the kitchen--it's a cordless handset in it's recharging base--using the base speaker.
I think it could go either way. If the message was forwarded to the house account voicemail, Keith would have had access to it, and could burn it to CD. If the message was on Veronica's cellphone voicemail, then she dialed it up and played it for Keith using the house phone, and he wouldn't have access to it.
Unless Keith knows Veronica's voicemail PIN, which is possible.

Yeah, I'm not sure how he got the message onto a CD, because I can't believe that Keith thought the CD Veronica planned to have played at Homecoming was of the people in the bus crash falling to their deaths. Even Veronica's not that psychotic.

how he got the message onto a CD
Holding the phone up to a computer's mic. and recording from there would be the simplest way. Crude, and there would be some loss of quality, but it would work.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
how he got the message onto a CD
Run a patch cord from the phone's earphone jack to the line-in jack on the computer. Really not that difficult. I've done the same thing to rip tracks off of vinyl or cassette.
