What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

In the beginning, when the psychic tells Jackie her card has been denied, was that a mislead? Like Jackie gave her another one, and had the idea to "get" Veronica?

Someone else posited that the plan started before then. That she deliberately maxed out her credit card on the psychic's stuff in order to leave the paper trail that would lead Veronica there.

Dunno if that was there before; this was the first time I noticed.

It's been there since the beginning, and people had been speculating about its significance.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

It doesn't make more sense that way. If Jackie wants to suggest that the psychic stole the card, it shouldn't have been maxed out there. An earlier purchase should be established (psychic steals it then) and then it should be maxed out anywhere else (to make it seem like either the psychic or her friend maxed it out). As for the candles, since they were likely purchased somewhere else (they have a brand name), it could be that Jackie duplicated the purchase she noticed there or bought candles and brought them to the psychic.

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

Is Wallace 18? Would BioDad be worried about kidnapping charges?

after/between Wallace's serenade to his bio-dad he mentioned that he'd had "almost 18 years" to find him. so i'm thinking he's not quite of age.

the whole credit card thing is the issue i had. it's murky.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

He and Wallace are the people I'd most want to hang with, on the show.

The actors are roommates (or were last spring).

Hey. New board.

That's true! I remember hearing that at the symposium thing in L.A. where the screened the Polly episode.

That was awesome.

My favorite bit was how they showed a random scene from "Welcome to the Hellmouth" before it started. It was just fun. Well, okay, the interviews were actually better, but whatever.

Yeah, they're not living together anymore (no drama, just...they're not).

Teddy probably got his own place. Before they were living in Percy's house with Percy's older brother and some other guy.

Strawberry disappointment.

What I thought was good was that when Veronica phoned Wallace at the end, she apologised, but then she said that she didn't want to lose another friend. So once again it was about her. Which, of course, it so often is. I liked that she never played the CD though.

Duncan remains dull to me.

Wallace rocks.

Is Weevil on holiday?

A bug. Ha!

All is well that ends in pizza.

then she said that she didn't want to lose another friend. So once again it was about her

Yeah, but then she wouldn't be Veronica...

Would a simple "I don't want to lose your friendship" be a more neutral way? Or is that too much "I"?

Because books.

she said that she didn't want to lose another friend. So once again it was about her

Yeah, but...points for honesty. In a friendship, that's valuable. At least she's admitting she'll have to take some responsibility if it's lost.

the whole credit card thing is the issue i had. it's murky.

At least I wasn't the only one!
