This one is interesting. There are quite a few huge flaws in it. It's too choppy, too awkward, strange cuts that clearly throw much exposition and character development out the window, the cop-out conclusion to the 'rape' mystery. Yet for all that is wrong with A Trip to the Dentist, it still remains an incredibly strong episode. There is the writing, the brilliant acting, the Rashomon-style of storytelling. As well, viewers are sent on a dizzying tailspin as the second of the season-long mystery arcs comes to an end and the main mystery picks up a steam train-load of propulsion. These incredible strengths can simply not be overlooked. However, at the end of the day, the high grade for this episode is due to the better technical aspects presented as opposed to the almost distasteful feeling that the conclusion of Veronica's rape storyline brings.

Lowlights
Teddy Dunn (Duncan Kane) - In what should be a heartbreaking scene -- a young love tainted forever by drugs and cruelty leading to rape -- Kristen Bell delivers beautifully as Veronica confronts the first boy she loved. Alas, the same can not be said for Dunn. Glancing away, squeezing tears out of his eyes, clenching his fists and tightening his mouth, his Duncan looks more like he's suffering from a bad case of constipation. The only sign that he's actually going through a devastating situation is his raised voice, but every word comes out rehearsed and stilted. Even his falling down as Veronica walks away smacks more of a bad actor's conceit in delivering a "moment" as opposed to genuine emotion.

Just a note, the LoVe scenes in this episode actually work much, much better as a whole if you watch them straight-through with none of the other scenes in between. If you've seen the whole episode, you know what happens, so that is there to fill in the holes and you can just concentrate on the Logan/Veronica aspect of the story. Which, seriously, makes the awkward cuts and "whu?" (for the most) part go bye-bye.
Scene One: See Veronica Run
And here we see the key issue in the Logan/Veronica relationship play out. I had remarked in the "Principles of Democracy" section of the Hot Dogs episode breakdown --
I think that in the romantic stage of her relationship with Logan, he overwhelms her. I remember Wallace's line in An Echolls Family Christmas:
So when potential badness comes knocking on her door, she runs as a way to sidestep that pain. By running, I think that she figures that that is the only way in which she can stop, regroup and figure out how to deal. Because of all of the crap that Logan has (admittedly) pulled and because she has built up these walls (admittedly much because of Logan), it does make sense that she isn't going to trust her instinct to, well, trust him. And so she runs.
Scene Two: Bad, Veronica, Bad!
Sigh, this scene is just so painful. Out of every Logan/Veronica scene, this one probably comes in second in terms of sheer misery to watch as a LoVe shipper -- if you've watched the entire season, you, no doubt, are well aware of the scene that gets the blue ribbon. And, for me, this is actually the one scene that, no matter how many times I watch it, I am pissed off at Veronica. In that aforementioned first place scene as well as other not-so pleasant ones, I'm on Veronica's side even if I don't always like or agree with her words and/or actions. In this scene, I don't side with her and I definitely do not agree with either her words or actions.
Why? Because I honestly believe that she was completely in the wrong in her treatment of Logan here. I understand that she's hurt; I understand that she feels betrayed, but this guy has spent the last two weeks practically worshipping the ground she walks on and in that time frame, she has clearly not led him to believe that she is anything but happy with him. And then all of a sudden, she stands him up, leaves him hanging for several days and then when he comes to her begging to right what he (understandably) has no clue is wrong, she is a complete and utter bitchface to him.
Again, I understand her anger, her frustration, etc., however, to not even give him one fucking iota benefit of the doubt is just wrong. She basically accuses him of raping her, not even stopping to think that if he wasn't responsible, news that she was raped would be a difficult thing for him to learn. Then she essentially threatens him and tells him that he makes her sick and slams the door in his face. And she does all of this with a nasty sneer and loathing in her eyes. Veronica simply does not appear to even remotely, truly allow the possibility that, you know, maybe the guy she's been in bliss with for the last couple of weeks and has clearly been happier than he's been in just as long DIDN'T DO IT!
And Logan just looks so heartbroken. She has completely -- and when I say completely, I mean COMPLETELY -- treated him like shit and he stands there, heart on his sleeve, eyes all a puppy-dogging away, desperate pleading in his voice, determined to do, say whatever he needs to make it right for her. Not for him, but for her and she just slams the door in his face.
Again, this is the one scene where I truly dislike Veronica as a character. Now, I'm not saying I don't understand why she acted that way or that it's out of character, just that I really disliked her in this scene and there is no other in the entire series where I feel this way. All of my tea and sympathy goes to Logan. (And no, it has nothing to do with the fact that, hot DAMN!, Jason Dohring looks go-ood! in this scene.)
Scene Three: Just Beautiful
Here's where the weirdness starts. We go directly from a Keith/Cheyenne scene to Veronica and Logan sitting on the couch in her apartment with Veronica apologizing profusely. 'Tis a strange, awkward, quick cut and part of the reason it is best to watch the LoVe scenes straight through. Your mind fills in the details automatically and you expect the jump, but your brain actually fills it out more smoothly. Odd, but there it is.
About the scene itself. First off, shallow thoughts (and prepare to be shocked, it's not about Logan!): Oh my! I totally adored Veronica's cute little pig-style ponytails, just so, so adorable. My favorite hairstyle hands-down. Okay, yeah, and Logan looked hot. Ahem. Moving on.
While I did like the sincerity of Veronica's apology (and felt that it was very, very much deserved, see Scene Two), I would be remiss if I didn't point out the irony of us hearing Veronica apologize to Logan as opposed to the other way around. I mean, really, after all of the shit he pulled, we never heard an apology from him? Come on. Still, it was a deserved apology from her and Logan seemed to realize that despite how shitty she treated him earlier, she really was the one who deserved an overall apology and not he. Thus, his pretty constant refrain of "It's alright" and then finally, re-aligning the cosmos, offering his own apology to her.
Of course, after their last scene together, we know exactly where that specific apology comes from, but before that knowledge arrives, it was still nice to hear Logan apologize to Veronica. What was also really nice was seeing Logan be, quite frankly, just like the most awesome boyfriend ever! Watching him simply trying to be the best boyfriend he could be was just so, excuse the sappiness of the term, but it's true, beautiful.
After all of the snark, all of the nastiness, all of the bad that we know from comments here and there isn't the real Logan, to see him in his purest, most honest form with her and it was just overflowing with love was beautiful. He said he just wanted to be there for her and nothing in what he said or did in that scene indicated he meant anything other than that. If she wanted to tell him what happened, he was okay with that. If she didn't want to tell him, that was fine too. What she wanted is what mattered to him. And when she did decide to tell him, well, he just sat there and he listened. He was truly there for her. Again, it was just beautiful.
Scene Four: Surprise!
So, why exactly is Logan bringing Veronica to his house with his father whom he despises? Ah, plot contrivance, I see. [sarcasm] Lovely. [/sarcasm] I do like the kissing and spinning into the house, not quite sure why Logan feels the need to constantly enter rooms this way with Veronica, but okay. Really, there isn't much to say about this little snippet here because all of the meat happens after the commercial break.
Nice kissy-face, though. I just wish this (like so many of their kisses) wasn't in the dark.
Scene Five: My Hero!
If this scene were from the silent film era, in between scene captions would contain (at least three times!):

because, really, Logan is pretty much every girl's hero in this one. He shows not a hint of remorse or embarrassment; he stares down a room full of most of Veronica's worst critics. He threatens to cut off anyone who dares to disrespect his girlfriend, even close friends, commanding the room in general with the force of his charisma to respect his girlfriend -- and no, I never get tired of typing that ... why do you ask?
So, ahem, that's Logan. Knight in shining puka shell necklace. Veronica? Not so much the pig-tailed damsel in distress. Yes, yes, we get the "My hero!" vibe, but we also get a very tense Veronica. Taking all that happened earlier, heck the whole last year and a half, it makes sense that when Dick starts in about the reality show My Skank, she doesn't expect defense, she seems to be steeling herself for repudiation. Isn't it just so lovely that the opposite happens?
Sigh.

One interesting note about this scene. We've been speculating back and forth as to who is the "King of the 09er's." Well, I think this answers it. Logan tells the room to get lost if they have a problem with his girlfriend (sigh! See caption above!) because if they do, they are dead to him; the only person who takes off is Duncan. And no one follows his lead.
Thus, King of the 09ers = Logan Echolls. Clearly movie-star glamour beats out software genius in Neptune.
Scene Six: This is How It Should Be ... Well Except for the V Goes Bye-Bye Part
As with many of their scenes, dialogue is just such not an important part of the equation and so when we get scenes (or sections of scenes) that feature no dialogue, it's always fun because it sometimes feels as if we're actually given more to work with because we don't have the dialogue specifically telling us what to expect from the scene. And Dohring and Bell are such excellent actors that they give such a wealth of emotions for us to work with.
Such was the case in the first fifteen seconds of this scene (although, we did get a little laugh from Veronica when Logan picked her up and swung her from the steps, cute): Logan, obviously looking for his "girlfriend" (wow, two whole scenes worth!), came upon Veronica and without a word, he just took her hands in his, while she looked at him gratefully. Without words, they left the party hand-in-hand, walking outside, past the pool, Logan swinging her from the afore-mentioned steps with a twirl, followed by his adorable hop. It wasn't long, but it was sweet and a nice fifteen seconds to just enjoy seeing them together and in sync with one another. Quite lovely.
Then we get the poolhouse, the making out, the confessions, the air vent, the key-breakage, the camera discovery and Veronica going bye-bye. I admit that the first time I watched this I, like many, was a little thrown by the macking on each other, especially as done by Veronica after everything that had happened that day. However, after watching their scenes once more and back to back it made sense. When Logan and Veronica spun, kissing into that room, he made the comment about "this is how it should be." He then continued by basically saying it should just be them, no other people. They were both just giddy. And I think that was it, why they acted that way (prior to his confession): They were giddy with relief.
They've been having this secret relationship for a couple of weeks now. The secret is out now. They didn't know how Duncan would react. They know now, it's not good, but they know and clearly they are still fine with each other. Veronica didn't know how Logan would react when/if the 09ers started on her again -- recall her expression when Dick insulted her as if steeling herself. Well, she saw how he reacted -- unlike the last guy she had major feelings for (Donut), this one defended her when some jackass (we'll just ignore that this one was the jackass in the first scenario) insulted her. Recall her expression as she looked at Logan after he defended her. Now add to all of the relationship stuff, the fact that Veronica knows now that it wasn't rape as she thought it was and that pressure is gone; Logan knows that she knows he didn't rape her. That pressure is gone. Finally and back to the relationship stuff once more: They've just survived a pretty huge hurdle in their relationship and are still with one another. That pressure is gone.
So taking all of that in, it makes sense that they would both be practically giddy in their "we're still together! despite all of the last 72 hours and then some of pain!" joy. And then it makes sense that Logan would confess at that moment because if he didn't there would still be this huge lie (of omission) between them, just when they were just at that place of joy. And then it makes sense that Veronica forgave him so quickly because she just went through 72 hours and then some of pain, had a sense of peace about this enormous thing that had happened to her that while still pretty awful, thankfully, turned out to not be the horrible atrocity she'd believed that it was. And she's gonna wanna keep that sense of peace longer than a nanosecond and if that meant forgiving this guy that she does clearly care a whole heckuva lot for because he was yet another domino (albeit one of the biggies) in what led to the events of that night, I can understand.
Which brings us to one last thing that was a big huh? the first time I watched this scene: The "I need a refreshment!" Right before he said that, he let out this huge exhalation of relief -- like, THANK GOD, that's off of my chest! It was like because of his confession and her forgiveness, they were both finally at a completely clean slate for the first time in forever with one another. I equate it to some major event happening, it all gets hashed out, cleared up and then there is just this moment, where "damn, I need a drink!" This was such a moment for Logan.
And naturally, it didn't last long. Sigh. We can only imagine his reaction when he returned to find Veronica gone. Which brings us to the heartbreaking closer of the scene. Veronica, Veronica, Veronica ... I admit that I do understand her reaction, her jumping to conclusions that Logan had something to do with it. Considering all that had happened, considering all that she had learned, I do understand her assuming the worst. Unless it's one of four people (Keith, Wallace, Duncan or Meg -- go figure), that's what Veronica does when confronted with a situation: She assumes the worst of whatever individual is involved and Logan has a long-time record of being her favorite whipping boy, despite the fact that she just told him moments before that she trusted him.
Sigh. Clearly she doesn't.
And I hate it and it's depressing and terrible to take as a LoVe fan, but damnit, sigh, I DO understand where she is coming from. Logan did a lot of terrible things in the past and he just hasn't (clearly) earned any true trust back. I get that and I get where she's coming from --even if I believe that she handled it pretty damn badly. And that's where my frustration comes in play. I just want to smack her upside the head for not just sticking around and at least TALKING to the guy.
Sigh. And yet another episode ends on ... Poor Logan.

- Alicia has found out about the bugged plant that Veronica had Wallace deliver to Wiedman in Betty and Veronica. She tells Keith that she could lose her job and thinks that he is not taking the situation seriously. Veronica tries to explain, but Keith sends her to her room. As she leaves, Veronica insists that Wiedman bugged her first.
At school the next day, Veronica apologizes to Wallace for getting him into trouble, but he shrugs it off saying he knew that it was more than a simple delivery and he was okay with that. However, he does ask why Logan used the absence slips her got for her in M.A.D. and Veronica repays Wallace's kindness and loyalty by lying to him and saying that she and Logan were working on his mother's case. Bad Veronica! Later, Veronica and Alicia make peace and Alicia confides that she is afraid that she may have ruined things between her and Keith. Veronica assures her that Keith cares
about her and that they are fine.
- The Kanes apparently have a private jet at their disposal. It lands at Jet Stream Executive Charter.
- Dick has a new surfboard (briefly).
- There were about one hundred people at Shelly's party.
- Meg and Veronica have Mrs. Murphy's English class together. They are currently reading Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises.
- Dick and Madison were dating in October of 2003 when the party occurred. At that time Madison was on the Atkins diet.
- Luke doesn't seem that fond of Madison.
- Dick thinks that Veronica is hot and cute, when she's quiet.
- Veronica is going to keep her walkie-talkies in her car from now on.
- Logan left Shelly's party early with a freshman named Cindy (not Cindy Mackenzie, aka Mac, from all information available) who was supposed to be Beaver's sure thing.
- Veronica is obsessively cleaning everything she can find to try to get some control over her life.
- Veronica likes crme brule.
- Logan is allergic to shellfish, which Aaron did not know. Aaron also doesn't know when Logans birthday is (even though it is apparently not in February). Aaron grabs Logan, but releases him after a moment and does seem to be trying to be less abusive. He says that he is trying and that Logan will see that. Logan points out that when he turns eighteen, he will be out of there.

- Keith finds Duncan at a caf in Havana, Cuba. Duncan is surprised, but seems resigned that Keith is going to bring him back. He asks if Keith thinks he murdered Lilly and Keith replies that he doesn't know. Duncan is certain that he did not kill his sister.
They land back in Neptune and are greeted by Celeste and Clarence Wiedman. Keith and Clarence trade witticisms ... You know:
Keith asks Veronica about the deal she made with Celeste, but insists that the Kanes will end up paying eventually and that she shouldnt worry. He suggests that she look for a more normal job, but Veronica says that is not necessary and that she is healthy and happy thanks to Keith.
- The entertainment lawyer that Keith has been looking for has been found in Vegas. He goes there and calls an escort, Cheyenne, and arranges an appointment. She shows up and tries to overcome what she sees as Keiths married man qualms. She is not happy when he knows her real name and wants to talk about Abel Koontz. Apparently, Koontz had a standing phone sex appointment with her at the time of the murder. Cheyenne has been running since Koontz confessed to try to avoid having to provide an alibi and revealing her true occupation to her five-year-old son.
- Logan sees Veronica at school and even though she is trying to ignore him, he follows her through the parking lot. Weevil intercepts Logan, allowing Veronica to get away and royally pissing off Logan. Things quickly spiral out of control as Weevil implies that Duncan hurt Lilly and they start to shove each other until a teacher interrupts them.
Later, Veronica comes out of her shower to hear Backup barking and to find Logan on the doorstep. He refuses to go away so Veronica finally confronts him about having the GHB the night of Shellys party. Logan is stunned that she was raped and wants to know what happened, but Veronica shuts him down. Logan realizes that she thinks he was her rapist and explains that he bought the drugs in TJ and brought them to Shellys to party. Veronica assures him that she is going to find out who raped her and make them pay, even if it was him.
Veronica begins her investigation with Meg, commenting that she is one of the few 09ers who will willingly help her. She confirms that Meg was at the party and then asks what happened. Meg, who goes in to instant evasion mode, says that she barely saw Veronica as she was leaving with Cole and Veronica having no memory of that night might be a good thing. Meg saw Logan put salt on Veronica and a lime in her mouth for someone to do body shots off her. Meg thinks they should help Veronica, but Cole points out that someone is and they leave. Meg did not see who lifted Veronica off the chaise lounge and to the present day thinks that was the extent of the evenings entertainment. Maybe cartoon birds do braid her hair after all.
Her next stop is Luke. After reminding him that she saved him in after the Tijuanua trip You Think You Know Somebody), she asks him about the GHB he and Logan bought in TJ. He confirms that he, Sean and Logan did buy it, but says that he doesn't have any left. What he had he gave to Dick Casablancas.
He tells her that at the party he, Sean, Dick and Casey were doing shots when Dick started complaining that Beaver (who was getting friendly with a girl) was getting more action than he was due to Madison not being as much of a, um, performance artist as he would like. Sean says that he is saving his drugs for something special. Dick coerces Luke to pass over his two doses after Madison comes over and complains that Veronica is there and makes it clear that Dick will not be getting anywhere with her that evening unless extreme measures are taken. Luke thought that Dick was going to take one dose and ask Madison to take the other. However, later he saw Madison, with shoe polish, writing something on Veronicas car. Since GHB is supposed to make you nicer, he is pretty sure she never took the drugs.
Veronica tracks down Madison, who is not wearing the awful flashback blonde wig, thank God. She fesses up to writing slut on Veronica's car because whore had too many letters. (Maybe she didn't think of ho? Even she could have spelled that one.) She claims that it was in retaliation for Veronica kissing Dick at the party. Her memories of that night have Veronica dancing and making out with Dick and then laying on Caseys lap and kissing him. I sincerely hope that Veronicas shots are up to date if Madisons memories are even half true because Dick, ugh! Veronica tells Madison that she was drugged and for a second it seems that the Ice Princess will show some humanity, but to no one's surprise Madison doesn't believe her and leaves.
Casey is Veronica's next witness. After beginning to blow her off he finally gives Veronica his attention after she reminds him of the events of Drinking the Kool-aid. He tells her that she did not hit on him at the party but confirms that things did get ugly. Caseys version of the story has Veronica out of it and Dick instigating things. When Dick sees that Madison is watching he shoves her onto Casey's lap. Later, Dick and Sean feed Veronica shots and arranged to have Shelly make out with her while everyone watched.
Definitely moving downward on the evolution scale, Veronica talks to Sean next. When Veronica asks him if he is up for watching some girl on girl action with her and Shelly, Sean starts getting twitchy. He insists that he was a perfect gentleman and throws Dick under the bus. Veronica is not happy to discover that Dick carried her to the spare bedroom with Sean and Beaver in tow. Dick encouraged Beaver to have sex with Veronica, seemingly totally unconcerned with her practically unconscious state. Beaver goes along with Dick to get him to leave the room, which he does after leaving behind his stash of condoms. With the amount of protection Dick was toting, either he was expecting a lot of action, or Madison insists that he is triple wrapped before she will touch him.
And further down the evolutionary process we go until we end up at Dick. Veronica has the LeBaron strategically poised over Dick's new surfboard. As she revs the engine to get his attention, he unwillingly answers her questions. He tells her that he did not give her the GHB, swearing on his life (like that's anything she'd miss). He insists that he innocently stumbled upon Veronica making a pass at Beaver in the guest room and had nothing to do with her getting there. Finally tired of his lies, Veronica drives over the board.
Next up? Beaver. He swears that nothing happened in the guest room between him and Veronica. Dick was actively egging him on, but Beaver had to throw up just a few minutes after the other boys left, which he did on Carrie (from Mars vs. Mars) Bishop's shoes. Beaver seems only guilty of leaving Veronica alone in her state and ruining Carries footwear. However, his version of the story has Sean leaving the condoms. Either way, someone had a lot of protection that night.
Carrie confirms that she saw Veronica in the guest room having sex with Duncan. Since she is working in a coffee shop, we can assume she also confirmed Beaver's story and still regrets the loss of her party shoes since she has to now work for a living.
Veronica, stricken by the news (over Duncan, not the loss of the shoes) goes to the Kane manor and demands some answers from a still hirsute Duncan. She tells Duncan what Carrie saw and breaks down as she exclaims that he was the one who raped her. Duncan cops to the sex, but claims that it was consensual and that they had an unspoken pact not to talk about it again. Let us all take a moment to consider just how stupid of a man he is. Okay, moving on.
In his version of events, Duncan found Veronica sleeping in the guest room and that they made love. All that seems missing is the violins and strewn rose petals. Veronica seems under impressed with his telling of the story and demands to know why he left her there alone looking for her underwear if it was so romantic a night. Duncan, goaded into (finally) telling the truth, admits that he left because he felt guilty having just slept with his sister. Apparently to break them up, Celeste told Duncan that they were related and even knowing this Duncan slept with Veronica. Shattered, Veronica turns to see Celeste standing in the driveway and goes to Wallaces where she finds a friendly shoulder to cry on. While she is there she shares the entire Lilly murder file with him.
Later, Veronica apologizes to Logan and tells him what she discovered. He seems shocked that she had sex with Duncan and wasn't raped. At his surprise birthday party she discovers that Dick gave Madison the soda with the GHB. Since it wasn't diet Madison didn't drink it and when she saw Veronica she spit in it and handed it to her anonymously.
- A few days after the scene with Aaron, Veronica and Logan come into the Echolls' family room from the pool, expecting dinner, and instead are greeted by a surprise party and the 09ers en masse. Unfortunately as the lights come on, they are wrapped in each other's arms, and their secret relationship is a secret no longer. It is really hard to know who is more surprised, Logan and Veronica or all the guests. Aaron, on the other hand, seems totally unfazed. Logan holds out his hand to Veronica, and she takes it as they face the stares united. LoVe fans everywhere swoon.
Dick, ever the gentleman, calls Veronica a skank to her face and Logan kicks him out. He then extends an invitation to anyone who has a problem with his "girlfriend" to leave. The only person who takes him up on his offer? Duncan. Logan tries, unsuccessfully, to talk to him, but Duncan ignores him. Meanwhile, Madison, who had called Veronica a whore to her face just a few days before, hands Veronica a drink and makes small talk about Aarons movie career. Meg warns Veronica that Madison likes to spit in drinks and give them to people she doesnt like, calling it a trip to the dentist. The penny drops for Veronica and she discovers that Madison did the same thing the night of Shellys party.
Outside, Duncan realizes that he doesn't have his car keys and totally loses it. He takes a shovel to his car, smashing the driver's side window and probably not doing much for the paint job. Meg comes upon him and realizes that Duncan still has feelings for Veronica.
A little later, Logan finds Veronica alone at the party and takes her outside. They go to the pool house where they indulge in some heavy-duty make out time. Logan interrupts their snogging to make a confession. He tells her about the body shots he was orchestrating using her body as a shot glass. She tells him that she already knew, but there is more.
When Duncan came to stop the salt lick, Logan dropped a dose of GHB into his drink and Duncan drank it. Logan feels responsible for what happened to Veronica, but she forgives his actions (a little too readily, if you ask me) and gets back to the kissing. Veronica insists that she trusts Logan (as anvils start to fall from the ceiling) and he picks this moment to want a drink; badly enough to get up from the bed and move away from a very willing and forgiving Veronica.
He takes a screwdriver from a drawer and removes the cover to the air vent. Inside is a key to the liquor cabinet. Veronica is reminded that Lilly used to use the same hiding spot for her treasures. As he is trying to open the cabinet, the key snaps and he kisses Veronica and makes for the big house for refreshment. Veronica lies on the bed, looking at the ceiling fan, and notices that there are cables running along the ceiling (not anvils, sorry, honest mistake) to a bookcase. She is able to push open the bookcase and finds monitors behind for two video cameras that are trained on the bed. She looks horrified and then we cut to her hopping on the back of Weevils bike. He asks her if she is okay and she thanks him for getting her. When she gets home her mother is waiting for her.

All flashbacks are of Shelly Pomroy's party.

- Madison witnesses Veronica flirting and hanging all over Dick and Casey in disgust. (Madison's version of events.)
- A similar flashback to the one above, this time, Veronica is interacting with only Dick, but she's clearly out of it, while Casey watches on. (Casey's version of events.)

- Dick claims to see Veronica making a pass at Beaver in the guestroom. (Dick's version of events.)
- Beaver stands innocently by while Dick and Sean bring Veronica to the guestroom, egging Beaver on to have his way with her. In this version, Sean leaves the condoms. Once the older boys leave, Beaver is unable to perform and runs outside and throws up on Carrie Bishop's shoes. (Beaver's version of events.)
- Carrie walks by the guestroom and sees Veronican and Duncan making out and snipes that they should shut the door. (Carrie's version of events.)
- Duncan comes upon Veronica sweetly sleeping and wakes up to see him and in a tender blaze of teenage love they gently make love. (Riiiight!) (Duncan's version of events.)
- Madison spits in Veronicas drink at Shelly's.
- Logan is arranging body shots off of Veronica for a parade of 09ers when Duncan comes up and plays hero. Logan snarks a bit at him, but backs off. (Logan's version of events.)
- Duncan turns away (with a barely conscious Veronica hanging on him) and Logan slips some GHB into a drink and gets Duncan's attention. Logan apologizes with a sweet smile and hands the spiked drink as a peace offering. (Logan's version of events.)

"Creation" " (Atash)
Scene: Duncan ain't no Ingrid Bergman, but I can buy Papa Mars as Humphrey Bogart, sure.
"Kingdom of Chemicals" (Sean Dailey)
Scene: 09er Party Game #1 - Find a practically comatose victim, apply condiment, fruit and booze to the scenario.
"The Other Side" (The BoDeans)
Scene: Mommy knows best -- except when she's pretty much mentally force-feeding drugs into her beloved boy's system, or you know, if her name is Celeste Kane.
"This Is Not a Game" (B.A.S.K.O.)
Scene: It's not my party, but I'll bitch if I want to ... about the guest list, so says Madison Sinclair as snotty as ever because Veronica Mars brought her cooties to the cool party.
"I Touch Myself" (Saucy Monky)
Scene(s): Remember in Clash of the Tritons when Veronica sang really well? Yeah, well, we don't get a repeat when she drunkenly sings this saucy tune at the party. Oh, and it gets better when Dick attempts to sing the same ditty ... well, 'attempt' truly is the key word here.
"I Like That" (Houston with Chingy and Nate Dogg)
Scene: 09er Party Game #2 - A variation on #1, in addition to the condiment, fruit and booze trick, add a hot brunette macking on nearly comatose victim and you're good to go!
"Cemetary Party" (Air)
Scene: That's right, Donut! Veronica's "rape" is all about you! Your pain, your suffering, your memory loss. The fact that she's been worrying her silly little mind about such a thing happening to her doesn't matter in the larger context of your problems, Duncan. The Kane heir would no doubt be surprised that Wallace actually offers Veronica some sympathy over the situation. Silly Wallace, it's all about the Donut.
"Give You More" (Taxi Doll)
Scene: Ah Madison, such a lovely, well-raised girl. I wonder which etiquette lesson featured 'spitting in beverage before passing on to innocent bystander.'
"Kingdom of Chemicals" (Sean Dailey)

LoVe Lines
Veronica: It's kind of a bad time.
Logan: Okay. So I should come back when, never? That work for you?
Veronica: I'm so sorry. I know now it wasn't you and I'm sorry I accused you.
Logan: It's fine. You okay?
Veronica: It's not fine. I'm really sorry.
Logan: Veronica. All I care about is you. Okay?
Logan: (Whispering.) I'm sorry.
Veronica: I'm just glad you're here.
Dick: Dude, what the hell are you doing? Please tell me this is like, some new reality show called "My Skank."
Logan: Goodbye, Dick.
Dick: What?
Logan: Get out of my house. You have a problem with Veronica, you leave. Actually, you have a problem with Veronica, you're pretty much dead to me, so just, like, evaporate or something, I dunno. (A pause and then to the room of 09ers in general.) That's kind of a general invitation. If you don't like my girlfriend, then just start heading toward the rectangle with the knob.
Logan: (He and Veronica entering the room, while turning/kissing.) Now, see, why can't it just be like this? (Kissing Veronica.) Why do there have to be all those other people in this world? (Kissing her again, he leads her towards the bed.)
Veronica: What are you doing? (Logan, sitting down, pulls her with him.)
Logan: You're too short. (Veronica comfortably straddles him.) I need to level the playing field. (Logan kisses her again, while slipping her jacket off of her shoulders.)
Veronica: (With a smile in her voice.) Is this where you take all your conquests?
Logan: (Still holding her jacket, he laughs and throws his arms over his head. Releasing the jacket, he crosses his hands underneath his head.) Nope, only the short ones.
Veronica: (To Logan who is avoiding her kisses to confess.) I'm sorry, we're past the confessional portion of this program. We're on to the make out.
Logan: I'm the one who's responsible for what happened to you. And I can't take that I hurt you like that. I can't take that I hurt you when all I want to do is protect you. I want you to trust me.
Veronica: (Veronica pushes Logan down with a kiss.) I do.
In Memory
Dick: Look at that. Beaver's getting all the lovin'; Dick's flapping out in the breeze.
Luke: Please, you have like the hottest girlfriend ever.
Dick: Much like fake boobs, you know. Great to look at but they don't do as much as you'd like them to.
Quotable Quotes
Keith: (In Havana, Cuba after tracking down Duncan.) Buenos dias. (Duncan looks surprised.) I know. Of all the countries under military dictatorship in all the world ...
Duncan: So did they give you the jet to take me back home? Or am I supposed to click my heels?
Dick: (Showing off his surfboard.) Randy just finished shaping it for me. Double concave bottom with the sweetest little rocker through the tail.
Logan: Ooh and you dinged it your first time out?
Dick: What?! Dude, so not laughing. This is my child.
Logan: Okay, dude, the thought of you breeding ...
Logan: Look, you do not want to start with me today, Paco.
Weevil: Are you sure? It was in my day planner under goals.
Veronica Mars Voiceover: As a rule, people that hate you aren't that helpful. There were about a hundred people at Shelly's party. Ninety-eight of them would walk over my corpse for free gum. My 09er resources are limited but I do have a few people I can count on.
Meg: Um, can we skip English today? I have some sort of Hemingway-related narcolepsy. You start talking about The Sun Also Rises and I start falling asleep.
Veronica: Don't blame Papa. Blame Mrs. Murphy's monotone.
Clarence: Well done. Maybe your daughter has a future in travel planning.
Keith: And if she gets a discount and I travel the world, I'll be sure to send you a postcard. You can hang it in your cell.
Veronica: Remember when I saved you from drug dealers and I said I may call upon you for a favor someday?
Luke: You didn't say that.
Veronica: It was implied.
Veronica: Uh, I heard you went to TJ with Sean and Logan and scored some GHB.
Luke: Wow, that was like, ah, that was like a year ago. I don't have any now.
Veronica: (Feigns disappointment.) I was gonna spike your juice box and have my way with you.
Veronica: (About shoe-polishing Veronica's car.) Why would Madison do that?
Luke: Uh, I don't know. 'Cause she's a horrible human being?
Veronica: (As Madison looks in mirror.) You can keep asking, but you're not the fairest, trust me.
Madison: I can tell you who the pastiest is. What's the deal, can't buy bronzer with food stamps?
Veronica: You wrote 'slut' on my car last year at Shelly's party. Why?
Madison: Because 'whore' had too many letters.
Veronica: I made out with Dick and Casey?
Madison: Please. You made out with the garage door.
Alicia: She's seventeen!
Keith: She's not your average seventeen-year-old.
Alicia: Well, how can she be when you treat her like she forty.
Keith: Veronica.
Veronica: Just let me explain.
Keith: No, you just give us a minute.
Veronica: Dad, if I could just explain.
Keith: Veronica, go to your room, now.
Veronica: Fine. But he bugged me first. (She leaves the room.)
Alicia: He bugged her first?
Keith: I just can't help think that ... your life would be better if you weren't working for me.
Veronica: Are you kidding me? You're the best father in the world. I mean, come on, look at me. I'm healthy, happy, good grades, all my own teeth (She gnashes her teeth, then shows off her shoes.), fancy shoes. (Sincerely.) I never would have gotten through this past year if it wasn't for you.
Keith: If it wasn't for me you wouldn't have to.
Veronica: Ugh. This is why I need to keep my walkie-talkies in my car. Muck.
Wallace: Really? The dirt? See, I find I hardly need my walkie-talkies at school at all. But that's me.
Sean: (As Veronica pulls a chair up and stares at him.) What?
Veronica: I'm just thinking of all the ways I can destroy you.
Sean: Well you sitting there grinning is kind of torturous.
Veronica: So Shelly Pomroy and I were thinking of getting together later for a little girl-on-girl, you wanna come with? (Pausing as she takes in Sean's reaction.) Wow. You know, when you're about to soil yourself, you get a little twitch right in your eye.
Sean: Your issue's with Dick and Beaver, not me. They were horrible to you.
Veronica: Well, I'm just sorry you had to witness it. That must have been awful for you.
Dick: (As Veronica threatens to run over his surfboard.) You're frickin' nuts, you know that?
Veronica: Insulting me right now seems like a good plan, how?
Veronica: Beaver. Damn, you don't look happy to see me.
Veronica Mars Voiceover: The whole ritual cleaning thing is textbook for a reason. For a couple of minutes, you're in control and everything's the way it should be, at least on the surface.
Keith: You see another special on dust mites?
Veronica: They're disgusting, they're everywhere, and they must be destroyed.
Keith: I have any messages, or did you boil them?
Veronica: Apparently that package you've been waiting for is in Vegas. Is it a white Bengal tiger?
Keith: I'm gonna have to leave as soon as possible. Maybe you want to stay with a friend or something?
Veronica: And miss an opportunity to have the apartment to myself so that I can raid the liquor cabinet and watch Skinemax? No, wait, I'm a girl. I'm gonna do my homework, secure all the locks, brush, floss, and crawl into bed with an overly protective pit bull. You don't have to worry about me.
Aaron: (In French accent.) Ah! Especially for you tonight, I am making what will be known from now on as "Aaron's Extra Special Crab Cakes." Ha ha!
Logan: I'm sure I'll thoroughly enjoy them. Right up until my esophagus closes up, cuts off my air supply, and I shuffle off this mortal coil. (Aaron looks confused.) Perhaps my last words will be "Great crab, Papa." (Aaron is still confused.) I'm allergic to shellfish.
Aaron: Of course. I forgot.
Logan: You didn't forget. You never knew.
Aaron: I did, I -- I-- I just got you confused with Trina, that's all.
Logan: I'm the one allergic to shellfish. Trina's the one allergic to work.
Wallace: (To Veronica who's sitting in her car outside his house.) I was about to call the police on you, stalker.
Veronica: This is so not an "I told you so," but do you see why I kinda keep things to myself? I think I can go home now.
Wallace: Maybe you should just stay here.
Veronica: No, I feel better. Of course, you feel worse.
Wallace: No, I don't care about me. I just wish I could do something. Or say something.
Veronica: You don't have to say anything. That's kind of the good part.
Logan: So is this party nine months early or three months late?
Aaron: I got a lot of lost years I gotta make up for. This is my way of getting started.
Logan: (Insincerely.) It's a good call.
Meg: You don't want to drink that.
Veronica: Why?
Meg: I'm betting Madison gave you a trip to the dentist. It's her thing. She does it to people who she doesn't like. She spits in the cocktail and calls it a trip to the dentist, 'cause we're in eighth grade.
Veronica: You have no idea what you did to me.
Madison: Oh my God! I spit in your drink. You are like so scarred for life.
Veronica: (Walking in to her apartment.) Honey, I'm home.
Lianne: So am I, honey, so am I.

Havana, Cuba (Referenced as Duncan's location when Keith finds him.)
Havana (Spanish in full: San Cristbal de La Habana, usually shortened to just La Habana;) is the capital of Cuba. It is the largest city with a population of more than 2.2 million. Located roughly ninety miles south-southwest of Key West, Florida, it is one of the fourteen provinces of Cuba.

Founded in 1515 by a Spanish Conquistador, Diego Velzquez de Cullar, on the southern coast of Cuba, near the present town of Surgidero de Bataban. Havana moved to its current location on what was then called Carenas Bay in 1519. Originally, a trading port, the city suffered regular attacks by buccaneer pirates and French corsairs. In 1607, the city became the capital of the Spanish colony of Cuba, and the main port of the Spanish colonies in the New World.
Havana was officially designated as "Key of the New World and antemural -- Def: An outwork of a strong, high wall, with turrets, in front of the gateway (as of an old castle), for defending the entrance. In other words, a defensive barricade into the Spanish colonies. -- of the West Indies" by the Spanish crown. Goods traded in Havana included gold and silver, alpaca (!) wool from the Andes, emeralds from Colombia, mahoganies from Cuba and Guatemala, leather from the Guajira, spices, sticks of dye from Campeche, corn, manioc and cocoa. Shipments were received from large convoys of sailing ships guarded by Spanish military ships during the summer months.
In the middle of the 18th century, Havana, which by now had more than seventy thousand inhabitants, was seized by the British navy. The British seized the city as part of the Seven Years' War, opening it to free trade and bringing thousands of enslaved Africans to the island. In the middle of 1763, only a year after invading, the British returned Havana to the Spanish in exchange for Florida.
As trade between Caribbean and North American states increased in the early 19th century, Havana became a flourishing and fashionable city. Havana's theatres received the most distinguished actors of the age, and prosperity amongst the burgeoning middle-class led to new expensive classical mansions being erected. During this period Havana became known as the Paris of the Antilles.
At the end of the 19th century Havana saw the last moments of the Spanish colonization in America, which ended definitively when the United States warship Maine was sunk in its port, giving that country the pretext to invade the island. The 20th century began with Havana, and therefore Cuba, under occupation by the United States. Under American influence, the city grew and prospered with numerous buildings in the 1930s, when sumptuous hotels, casinos and splendid night clubs were constructed. Today, the city still has a glamour of magnificence handed down from the centuries.
Casablanca ... (Referenced when Keith found Duncan in Cuba: "I know. Of all the countries under military dictatorship in all the world.")
This 1940 film classic stars Humphrey Bogart as nightclub owner and cynical American expatriate Rick Blaine and Ingrid Bergman as his onetime love, Ilsa. It is set in World War II French-occupied Morocco. Rick struggles with both his love for Ilsa and his bitterness towards her for ditching him in Paris, and his quandary is further complicated when Ilsa asks him to help her resistance leader husband evade German capture.
Casablanca was an immediate hit and consistently ranks on best and most popular movie lists world-wide. The film won Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay in 1944. Casablanca is often remembered for its many legendary quotes, such as Rick's musing, "Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine," as well as "Here's looking at you, kid" and the oft-misquoted "Play it again, Sam." (Actual quote: "You played it for her, you can play it for me. Play it!")
The Wizard of Oz (Clicking my heels) ... (Referenced when Keith catches up with Duncan in Havana.)
The Wizard of Oz is a popular children's book written by Lyman Frank Baum. Baum was born in New York in 1856 to wealthy parents. He held many jobs but finally was encouraged to write down the stories he had been telling for years and achieved great success as an author. Over the years, until his death in 1919, he would write 40 books exploring the Wonderful World of Oz. MGM filmed The Wizard of Oz in 1939 resulting in an enduring classic starring Judy Garland featuring the song "Over the Rainbow."
GHB (Referenced by Veronica as she informs Logan that she knows he had GHB at the party, the night she was raped.)
Acronym for Gamma hydroxy butyrate or Gamma hydroxybutyric acid, Sodium Oxybate. Trace amounts are found naturally in the human body. However, the main ingredients in synthetic GHB are basically degreasing solvent or floor stripper mixed with drain cleaner. The common nicknames are Gamma-OH, Liquid Ecstasy, Fantasy, Easy Lay and Cherry Meth. It is usually found in a clear liquid, which looks just like water and is packaged in a 30ml clear plastic bottle. It is also found infrequently as a white powder.
The common effects from use are intoxication, increased energy, happiness, desire to socialize, feeling affectionate and playful, mild disinhibition, enhanced sexual experience and loss of gag reflex. Many people have bad reactions including nausea, headaches, drowsiness and amnesia. The effects of large doses include sedation, desire to sleep, rambling incoherent speech, difficulty thinking, passing out and, in extreme cases, death.
Tijuana (Referenced by Logan as he tells Veronica where he bought the G.H.B.)
Tijuana is the largest city in the Mexican state of Baja California. The current mayor is Jorge Hank Rhon of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI). The city stands on the U.S. Mexico border, adjacent to San Diego, California to the north. The city's motto is "Aqui empieza la patria", which translates to "The homeland starts here." It is sometimes referred to as the "Most visited city in the world" due to its proximity to the world's busiest border crossing. The city is commonly called TJ in Southern California. The most popular tourist attraction is Avenida Revolucion. Many foreigners visit the strip to drink, buy prescription drugs, bootleg brand-name clothing and accessories, and Mexican curiosities. There are also plenty of nightclubs in Plaza Fiesta, across from the Plaza Rio Mall that are mainly frequented by the locals. The Revolucion strip is also famous for its nearby red-light district La Coahuila, which boast numerous street prostitutes and various strip clubs.
Papa (Ernest Hemingway) ... (Referenced when Veronica and Meg were talking at the lockers.)
Ernest Hemingway was born in 1899 near Chicago, Illinois. He published his first work at the age of seventeen and went on to be considered one of America's greatest authors. In 1918 he volunteered to be an ambulance driver for the American Red Cross and was able to write about the war from first hand experience in the novel A Farewell to Arms.
Traveling the world, Hemingway made a name for himself as a prominent member of the expatriate community living in Paris, later chronicled in The Sun Also Rises. By 1926 the novel had propelled him to critical and financial success. He returned to the United States to settle in Florida, which would figure as a backdrop in The Old Man and the Sea. After it was published he was awarded the Pulitzer Award for Literature.
His private life did not mirror the success of his publishing career. Papa, as he was lovingly called by generations of readers, was married four times. He suffered from depression and paranoia and committed suicide in 1961.
Cavalry (Referenced by Logan when Duncan helps Veronica.)
Known as rescuers and shining beacons of heroic charge, the cavalry are soldiers or warriors who fought mounted on horseback. From earliest times, cavalry had the advantage of improved mobility, an "instrument which multiplied the fighting value of even the smallest forces, allowing them to outflank and avoid, to surprise and overpower, to retreat and escape according to the requirements of the moment." A man fighting from horseback also had the advantage of height, speed and weight over an opponent on foot.
The Atkins Diet ... (Referenced during Luke's flashback by Dick about Madison being on this popular diet.)
Somewhat controversial, the Atkins Diet (named after it's programmer, Dr. Robert Atkins) is a low-carb diet based on the theory that overweight people eat too many carbohydrates. Our bodies burn both fat and carbohydrates for energy, but carbs are used first. By drastically reducing carbs and eating more protein and fat, our bodies naturally lose weight by burning stored body fat more efficiently. Recent studies seem to show that those on the plan lose weight at a greater rate than traditional diets without serious effects on health. However, the Atkins restrictions (eliminating potatoes, pasta and sweets from their diets on a permanent basis) can be very difficult for some people.
Snow White ... (Referenced when Veronica approaches Madison in the bathroom, "You can keep asking, but you're not the fairest ")
A 1937 Walt Disney animated film based on a Brothers Grimm tale of the same name. Beautiful Snow White finds herself the target of her vain and very proud stepmother's jealousy. The evil Queen routinely inquires of her magic wall mirror, "Who is the fairest of them all," only to be informed one day, that her beauty is far surpassed by that of her stepdaughter. The Evil Queen, determined to be considered the fairest in the land -- a decree bestowed only by her often harangued mirror -- schemes to rid the kingdom of Snow White.
A woodsman hired by the Queen to kill Snow White helps to fake her death and run away. Snow White hides in the forest with the assistance and shelter of woodland creatures and seven dwarfs, but falls prey to the Queen in disguise and consumes a poisoned apple. The Prince, who has fallen in love with Snow White, happens upon the beauty in her dwarf-made glass coffin and awakens her from the wicked Queen's coma-inducing spell with "love's first kiss."
S'mores ... (Referenced when Casey and Veronica are discussing his experience with the collective from Drinking the Kool-Aid.)
Considered a customary campfire dessert because of its ease, S'mores consist of marshmallow, chocolate and graham crackers. Apparently named as a contraction of "some more," S'mores are created when marshmallows are held above a campfire until golden brown, removed carefully from the roasting implement and placed with a piece of chocolate between two graham crackers. The first published recipe for S'mores appeared in the 1940 Girl Scout handbook, but it is widely believed that the tasty treat was first created sometime following the development of the commercial marshmallow in the late 1800's.
Las Vegas (Referenced by Veronica as she tells Keith he's received a fax telling him the entertainment lawyer he's been tracking is there.)
Las Vegas is the largest city in the state of Nevada, with a population of 545,147 people. The Las Vegas Valley was originally part of Mexico, but American explorer John C. Frmont's sojourn to the area led to its annexation to the United States on May 10, 1855. Vegas officially became an American city in 1911.
Vegas has a couple well-known monikers, the first being The Entertainment Capital of the World. It is a popular vacation and entertainment destination, with theatres, concert halls and comedy clubs. But Vegas is most known for its gambling, which explains the city's other nickname: Sin City. Gambling was legalized here on March 19, 1931. The Las Vegas Strip is home to a number of hotel and casino resorts (e.g. the Bellagio and Monte Carlo), most of which are themed (e.g. the MGM Grand and Caesars Palace) to add to the Vegas experience. Vegas is also considered a "sinful" city because alcoholic beverages are available most everywhere and the adult entertainment industry is quite active. But this image also makes Las Vegas a popular setting for movies and television shows -- even Veronica Mars.

(Screencap from when Keith goes to Vegas.)
Cinemax (Skinemax) (Referenced by Veronica as she tells Keith about the naughty things she won't be up to while he's out of town.)
Cinemax is a cable television network that provides movies, special features, erotica programming for adults -- thus the infamous nickname, Skinemax, and other services to consumers via subscriptions. Cinemax is owned by the Home Box Office Group (which is a subsidiary of Time Warner Incorporated), and broadcasts from San Francisco, California.
Seattle (Referenced by Keith as he tells Cheyenne the places she'd been living since leaving Neptune.)
Seattle, Washington, founded in the 1850s and named after Chief Seattle (a leader of the Suquamish and Duwamish Native American tribes; he was a prominent figure among his people who became a Roman Catholic convert and pursued a path of accommodation to white settlers), is the largest city in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States.
Its official nickname is the Emerald City because of the lush evergreen trees in the surrounding area; it is also referred to as the Rainy City, the Gateway to Alaska, Queen City, and Jet City, due to the local influence of Boeing. Seattle residents are known as Seattleites. The city is known as the birthplace of grunge music, and it has a reputation for heavy coffee consumption (Starbucks is a locally founded coffee company).
Seattle's climate is mild, with the temperature moderated by the sea and protected from winds and storms by the mountains. Despite being partially in the rain shadow for the Olympic Mountains, the city of Seattle has a reputation for raining frequently. In actuality, the "rainy city" receives an unremarkable 38 inches of precipitation a year, less than most major Eastern Seaboard cities, such as New York City which averages 47.3 inches. Seattle's worldwide reputation for rain derives from the fact that it is cloudy an average of 226 days per year (versus 132 in New York City) and that most of its precipitation falls as drizzle or light rain. In other words, while it rains regularly, it usually doesn't rain very hard.
San Francisco (Referenced by Keith as he tells Cheyenne the places she'd been living since leaving Neptune.)
The City and County of San Francisco is the fourth-largest city in California and the fourteenth-largest in the United States, with a 2005 population of 739,426. It is located on the tip of the San Francisco Peninsula and is the focal point of the San Francisco Bay Area, whose population is seven million. San Francisco is the second most densely populated major American city, after New York.
The Spanish were the first Europeans to settle in San Francisco in 1776 and they named the settlement for St. Francis. When the gold rush hit in 1848, the city experienced rapid growth. Even the devastating earthquake of 1906 (one of the worst natural disasters in United States history) could not stop the San Francisco explosion. The city was quickly rebuilt and is today one of the most recognizable cities in the United States. Famous hallmarks and landmarks include the San Francisco cable cars, the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz Island.
Aspen ... (Referenced by Keith as he tells Cheyenne the places she'd been living since leaving Neptune.)
Founded as a mining camp during the Colorado Silver Boom, it's now known as a celebrity-rich ski resort. Names after the corncucopia of aspen trees in the area, it is the the largest city (and county seat) in Pitkin County, Colorado. Skiing became the thing following World War II when Walter Paepcke founded the Aspen Skiin Company. Paepcke was a Chicago industrialist who wanted to create a utopian community for the mind and body. (Yes, apparently skiing provides this mental and physical rejuvenation!)
Famous denizens of Aspen are John Denver (who lived most of his adult life in Aspen), Famous journalist and author, Hunter S. Thompson, lived in the Aspen area, where he was involved in land use regulation and once ran for Pitkin County Sheriff. Kevin Costner, Goldie Hawn, Don Henley, Jack Nicholason and many other celebrities maintain full-time or part-time residence in the Aspen area.

- In the previously ons Veronica's car now has "ABEL IT Should've BEEN HER" written on it.
- The whole episode seems heavily inspired by Akira Kurosawa's Rashomon.
- Shelly is a different actress than in the Pilot.
- Logan cradles his arm slightly after his confrontation with Aaron.
- Keith is cutely awkward in the beginning with Cheyenne.
- The faces of the entire Echolls family (Aaron and Lynn on the more visible left ones, and Logan and Trina on the right) are on the curtains in the pool house.
- How skillfully Rob Thomas brought back so many people from previous episodes and weaved them into the story. Bravo.
- Veronica has a Cuba poster in her bedroom.
- Veronica totally shoving the guy out of the way so that she can talk to Sean.
- Beaver's very cute "Wow."
- When Veronica first looks at the video monitor the shelf only has a few things on the far right hand side. The next time she looks at it there are vases and other things on it.

- In his haste to get to his avoidance-heavy lady love, Logan's skips with excitement, no doubt trying to endear Veronica with his adorable (albeit fey) adorableness.
- And now that he has her by his side as they make their way to the poolhouse, the excitement is now shimmering with joy and the boy can't contain himself as he does a little side hop.

- How did Keith know that Duncan would be at that caf? Assuming he knew where he was due to the passport, its still rather a big town.
- Did Duncan think that the beard gave him that rugged, 'on the lam' look? I hate to break it to him, but it just looks like he forgot to pack a razor.
- Why does Duncan care if Keith thinks hes guilty? Or was he really asking if Veronica still thought he was guilty? How does Duncan now know that he didnt kill Lilly?
- Did Veronica confide in Weevil? Or could he just tell that Veronica didnt want to speak to Logan and saw this as an opportunity to screw with Logan?
- What did Weevil think that Logan did to Lilly? "Lay your hand on Veronica " Does he think that Logan killed Lilly, or just hurt her physically?
- I know I have asked this before, but what was Weevil and Lilly's relationship like? Was it just sex for Lilly, or was there more to it for her?
- Why does Veronica have her makeup on when she was supposed to have just gotten out of the shower?
- Why didn't Logan ask Veronica what was going on before school on presumably Monday? Didn't he try to get in touch with her Friday when she missed their date in M.A.D.? Does anyone else feel that the night confrontation scene and the schoolyard scene with Weevil should have been reversed?
- Logan seriously needs some parental supervision, what with the drugs and the drinking and the cutting school. Of course without these things he wouldnt be our beloved woobie.
- So Cole and Meg were dating for over a year by the time Like a Virgin was set and they never got to second base?! That seems, odd.
- How guilty does Meg feel for leaving Veronica at the party? And if she thought the salt lick was the only thing that happened, did she ever wonder where Veronicas bad reputation came from?
- Did Veronica wear the same dress to Shelly's that she wore to the spring formal in The Wrath of Con?
- Where did the jet land? It looked like a private airstrip. Boy, the Kanes have everything, don't they?
- Why didn't Veronica tell Keith about her conversation with Celeste? I know she didn't think they would get stiffed, but he might have found the information useful.
- Why was Wiedman at the airstrip? Was Celeste expecting trouble from Keith?
- What were the pills Celeste gave Duncan? Why didnt he take his meds with him? If it was for his epilepsy, wouldnt that be dangerous?
- What has happened in the last few weeks to freak Celeste out? Was she referring to Weevil in Lillys room, or is there something else going on?
- So was the buying of the GHB an isolated incident? It seemed from the conversation that Veronica had with Luke as if he had not bought drugs in Tijuana in over a year (except for You Think You Know Somebody, of course).
- How did Sean afford the GHB in the first place? Did he really still have it, or did he sell it?
- Does Madison even like Dick? Because I really have my doubts.
- Madison is wearing jeans for the writing on the car scene but a skirt at the party. Why did she change clothes?
- Was Madison really concerned that Dick would rather be with Veronica or was she just looking for an excuse to be a bitch?
- Could Keith afford for Veronica to get another job? He seems to rely on her at the agency pretty heavily. Another assistant would probably get paid more and strain their resources even more.
- How much trouble did Wallace get into for delivering the plant?
- Will Alicia lose her job?
- Casey knew how out of it Veronica was, why didn't he intervene?
- Feeding Veronica shots and encouraging his brother to rape her; Dick is just a prince among men, isn't he?
- What made Wallace suspicious enough of Veronica to check up on the absence slips? Why did Veronica lie to him?
- How long has Dick been dating Madison at the party? Did he know about her spitting trick? Also, when it was obvious that Shelly had not drunk the soda, who did he think had?
- Who did Keith think Veronica could stay with? Alicia is mad at her and she doesn't have any other friends beside Wallace. Nice detective skills Mr. Mars!
- Why is Keith still lying to Veronica about who the entertainment lawyer really is?
- When is Logan's birthday?
- Why did Aaron seem so bothered by the idea of Logan leaving on his 18th birthday? Or is it just the idea of a self-sufficient Logan that he doesn't like?
- Why is Carrie working? I thought she was an 09er?
- Even with the drugs and the sibling issues, Duncan thought it was okay for Veronica to wake up alone without even a note? Niiice!
- If Veronica was as out of it as Beaver described, how was she even able to participate in the act with Duncan? Was Duncan still a virgin that night too?
- How did Veronica refrain from not hitting Duncan when he snottily commented that not being able to remember is a bad feeling?
- How much did Celeste hear of Veronica and Duncan's conversation? Will Duncan ever forgive her when he finds out that she lied to him on purpose?
- Did Veronica tell Wallace everything?
- What exactly does a double duty escort do?
- Where are Logan and Veronica when she apologized?
- If there was a phone record that proved Abel was not murdering Lilly, how did he get convicted?
- Does the cut to Veronica's apology seem really abrupt to anyone else?
- How did Aaron get all the 09ers to the party on such short notice? How did he even know whom to invite? Also, where are all the cars? How did Logan not suspect there were forty people in the house?
- Aaron had to know after M.A.D. that Logan and Veronica were keeping their relationship a secret. Is he really that unaware, or did he know that he was outing them and was just making the best of the situation?
- Why would Veronica take a poured glass of anything from any of the people at the party? Did she learn nothing at Shelly's party?
- How does Meg know about Madison's predilections for spitting in drinks?
- Is that really the best time to discuss Duncan's feelings for Veronica, Meg?
- Was Duncan's outburst due to his epilepsy or his poor impulse control?
- Why was Veronica so willing to blow off Logan's involvement in the salt lick? For that matter, how could she do the same for the drugging of Duncan?
- Please tell me that isn't Casey in the salt lick flashback because it looks like his shirt.
- Logan knew that Duncan was playing white knight for Veronica; what did he think was going to happen when he gave him that laced drink at that particular moment?
- Why did Logan break things off at that moment for a drink in the pool house? It seemed weird.
- In An Echolls Family Christmas, there are liquor bottles on the counter in the room where Logan held the poker game. Why are they locked up here?
- Veronica doesn't have her bag. How did she call Weevil? Why did she call Weevil? Why didn't she just ask Logan if he knew about the cameras? What did Logan think when he came back to find her gone?
- Was Liannes treatment over? Or did she leave the rehab facility?
- Whose cameras are in the pool house?
- Where did Lilly hide the secret pen that Weevil stole back in Hot Dogs? Is that something she would have left on her desk, expecting the secret message to remain secret, or would she have put it into the vent in her room? If it was in the vent, did Weevil see the video tapes?
- Where is the shelf that Veronica sees on the monitor? When she was in the bed it looked like a window behind her.

- In regards to Weevil's reference to Lilly's bruises in relation to Logan, originally Rob Thomas planned that it would be revealed in flashbacks that it was Duncan causing the bruises on Lilly when he had seizures. Alas, due to time constraints that issue was never cleared up and we now have an assault accusation that's never been contradicted.
- During the flashbacks, we see Veronica walk past a car that has 'slut' written on the window along with 'Abel it should have been her' on the back. Though it's deemed a previously on Veronica Mars, it never aired during The Pilot. Rob Thomas must have succeeded in his attempt to talk the Network into it even though they balked when he originally tried to air it in The Pilot.

- Veronica's finding of the video set-up in the pool-house was almost identical to Lilly's finding.
- Logan mentioning that it was from him that Lilly learned how to hide stuff in the air vent.

This one is interesting. There are quite a few huge flaws in it. It's too choppy, too awkward, strange cuts that clearly throw much exposition and character development out the window, the cop-out conclusion to the 'rape' mystery. Yet for all that is wrong with A Trip to the Dentist, it still remains an incredibly strong episode. There is the writing, the brilliant acting, the Rashomon-style of storytelling. As well, viewers are sent on a dizzying tailspin as the second of the season-long mystery arcs comes to an end and the main mystery picks up a steam train-load of propulsion. These incredible strengths can simply not be overlooked. However, at the end of the day, the high grade for this episode is due to the better technical aspects presented as opposed to the almost distasteful feeling that the conclusion of Veronica's rape storyline brings.

Lowlights
Teddy Dunn (Duncan Kane) - In what should be a heartbreaking scene -- a young love tainted forever by drugs and cruelty leading to rape -- Kristen Bell delivers beautifully as Veronica confronts the first boy she loved. Alas, the same can not be said for Dunn. Glancing away, squeezing tears out of his eyes, clenching his fists and tightening his mouth, his Duncan looks more like he's suffering from a bad case of constipation. The only sign that he's actually going through a devastating situation is his raised voice, but every word comes out rehearsed and stilted. Even his falling down as Veronica walks away smacks more of a bad actor's conceit in delivering a "moment" as opposed to genuine emotion.

Just a note, the LoVe scenes in this episode actually work much, much better as a whole if you watch them straight-through with none of the other scenes in between. If you've seen the whole episode, you know what happens, so that is there to fill in the holes and you can just concentrate on the Logan/Veronica aspect of the story. Which, seriously, makes the awkward cuts and "whu?" (for the most) part go bye-bye.
Scene One: See Veronica Run
And here we see the key issue in the Logan/Veronica relationship play out. I had remarked in the "Principles of Democracy" section of the Hot Dogs episode breakdown --
Quote:And we are definitely seeing the proof of this. Clearly instead of talking to Logan or even confronting him about the GHB reveal, Veronica has left him hanging for three days now. (They were supposed to meet Friday morning and now they are at school again on a different day, so one can presume it's likely Monday.) Avoidance. Why does she do this? I have a theory.
The scene featuring Logan and Veronica's second kiss is, more or less, the beginning of them as a couple and we get a fairly large clue as to exactly how they will deal with any issues. They won't. They kiss, Veronica stops, asks what they are doing, he says he doesn't know and instead of stopping to at least attempt to figure out what is going on, they simply kiss again. ... Avoidance is (unfortunately) key in this relationship and in the onset, it's very clearly revealed as such.
I think that in the romantic stage of her relationship with Logan, he overwhelms her. I remember Wallace's line in An Echolls Family Christmas:
- Wallace: Like that mind ever takes a break.
So when potential badness comes knocking on her door, she runs as a way to sidestep that pain. By running, I think that she figures that that is the only way in which she can stop, regroup and figure out how to deal. Because of all of the crap that Logan has (admittedly) pulled and because she has built up these walls (admittedly much because of Logan), it does make sense that she isn't going to trust her instinct to, well, trust him. And so she runs.
Scene Two: Bad, Veronica, Bad!
Sigh, this scene is just so painful. Out of every Logan/Veronica scene, this one probably comes in second in terms of sheer misery to watch as a LoVe shipper -- if you've watched the entire season, you, no doubt, are well aware of the scene that gets the blue ribbon. And, for me, this is actually the one scene that, no matter how many times I watch it, I am pissed off at Veronica. In that aforementioned first place scene as well as other not-so pleasant ones, I'm on Veronica's side even if I don't always like or agree with her words and/or actions. In this scene, I don't side with her and I definitely do not agree with either her words or actions.
Why? Because I honestly believe that she was completely in the wrong in her treatment of Logan here. I understand that she's hurt; I understand that she feels betrayed, but this guy has spent the last two weeks practically worshipping the ground she walks on and in that time frame, she has clearly not led him to believe that she is anything but happy with him. And then all of a sudden, she stands him up, leaves him hanging for several days and then when he comes to her begging to right what he (understandably) has no clue is wrong, she is a complete and utter bitchface to him.
Again, I understand her anger, her frustration, etc., however, to not even give him one fucking iota benefit of the doubt is just wrong. She basically accuses him of raping her, not even stopping to think that if he wasn't responsible, news that she was raped would be a difficult thing for him to learn. Then she essentially threatens him and tells him that he makes her sick and slams the door in his face. And she does all of this with a nasty sneer and loathing in her eyes. Veronica simply does not appear to even remotely, truly allow the possibility that, you know, maybe the guy she's been in bliss with for the last couple of weeks and has clearly been happier than he's been in just as long DIDN'T DO IT!
And Logan just looks so heartbroken. She has completely -- and when I say completely, I mean COMPLETELY -- treated him like shit and he stands there, heart on his sleeve, eyes all a puppy-dogging away, desperate pleading in his voice, determined to do, say whatever he needs to make it right for her. Not for him, but for her and she just slams the door in his face.
Again, this is the one scene where I truly dislike Veronica as a character. Now, I'm not saying I don't understand why she acted that way or that it's out of character, just that I really disliked her in this scene and there is no other in the entire series where I feel this way. All of my tea and sympathy goes to Logan. (And no, it has nothing to do with the fact that, hot DAMN!, Jason Dohring looks go-ood! in this scene.)
Scene Three: Just Beautiful
Here's where the weirdness starts. We go directly from a Keith/Cheyenne scene to Veronica and Logan sitting on the couch in her apartment with Veronica apologizing profusely. 'Tis a strange, awkward, quick cut and part of the reason it is best to watch the LoVe scenes straight through. Your mind fills in the details automatically and you expect the jump, but your brain actually fills it out more smoothly. Odd, but there it is.
About the scene itself. First off, shallow thoughts (and prepare to be shocked, it's not about Logan!): Oh my! I totally adored Veronica's cute little pig-style ponytails, just so, so adorable. My favorite hairstyle hands-down. Okay, yeah, and Logan looked hot. Ahem. Moving on.
While I did like the sincerity of Veronica's apology (and felt that it was very, very much deserved, see Scene Two), I would be remiss if I didn't point out the irony of us hearing Veronica apologize to Logan as opposed to the other way around. I mean, really, after all of the shit he pulled, we never heard an apology from him? Come on. Still, it was a deserved apology from her and Logan seemed to realize that despite how shitty she treated him earlier, she really was the one who deserved an overall apology and not he. Thus, his pretty constant refrain of "It's alright" and then finally, re-aligning the cosmos, offering his own apology to her.
Of course, after their last scene together, we know exactly where that specific apology comes from, but before that knowledge arrives, it was still nice to hear Logan apologize to Veronica. What was also really nice was seeing Logan be, quite frankly, just like the most awesome boyfriend ever! Watching him simply trying to be the best boyfriend he could be was just so, excuse the sappiness of the term, but it's true, beautiful.
After all of the snark, all of the nastiness, all of the bad that we know from comments here and there isn't the real Logan, to see him in his purest, most honest form with her and it was just overflowing with love was beautiful. He said he just wanted to be there for her and nothing in what he said or did in that scene indicated he meant anything other than that. If she wanted to tell him what happened, he was okay with that. If she didn't want to tell him, that was fine too. What she wanted is what mattered to him. And when she did decide to tell him, well, he just sat there and he listened. He was truly there for her. Again, it was just beautiful.
Scene Four: Surprise!
So, why exactly is Logan bringing Veronica to his house with his father whom he despises? Ah, plot contrivance, I see. [sarcasm] Lovely. [/sarcasm] I do like the kissing and spinning into the house, not quite sure why Logan feels the need to constantly enter rooms this way with Veronica, but okay. Really, there isn't much to say about this little snippet here because all of the meat happens after the commercial break.
Nice kissy-face, though. I just wish this (like so many of their kisses) wasn't in the dark.
Scene Five: My Hero!
If this scene were from the silent film era, in between scene captions would contain (at least three times!):

because, really, Logan is pretty much every girl's hero in this one. He shows not a hint of remorse or embarrassment; he stares down a room full of most of Veronica's worst critics. He threatens to cut off anyone who dares to disrespect his girlfriend, even close friends, commanding the room in general with the force of his charisma to respect his girlfriend -- and no, I never get tired of typing that ... why do you ask?
So, ahem, that's Logan. Knight in shining puka shell necklace. Veronica? Not so much the pig-tailed damsel in distress. Yes, yes, we get the "My hero!" vibe, but we also get a very tense Veronica. Taking all that happened earlier, heck the whole last year and a half, it makes sense that when Dick starts in about the reality show My Skank, she doesn't expect defense, she seems to be steeling herself for repudiation. Isn't it just so lovely that the opposite happens?
Sigh.

One interesting note about this scene. We've been speculating back and forth as to who is the "King of the 09er's." Well, I think this answers it. Logan tells the room to get lost if they have a problem with his girlfriend (sigh! See caption above!) because if they do, they are dead to him; the only person who takes off is Duncan. And no one follows his lead.
Thus, King of the 09ers = Logan Echolls. Clearly movie-star glamour beats out software genius in Neptune.
Scene Six: This is How It Should Be ... Well Except for the V Goes Bye-Bye Part
As with many of their scenes, dialogue is just such not an important part of the equation and so when we get scenes (or sections of scenes) that feature no dialogue, it's always fun because it sometimes feels as if we're actually given more to work with because we don't have the dialogue specifically telling us what to expect from the scene. And Dohring and Bell are such excellent actors that they give such a wealth of emotions for us to work with.
Such was the case in the first fifteen seconds of this scene (although, we did get a little laugh from Veronica when Logan picked her up and swung her from the steps, cute): Logan, obviously looking for his "girlfriend" (wow, two whole scenes worth!), came upon Veronica and without a word, he just took her hands in his, while she looked at him gratefully. Without words, they left the party hand-in-hand, walking outside, past the pool, Logan swinging her from the afore-mentioned steps with a twirl, followed by his adorable hop. It wasn't long, but it was sweet and a nice fifteen seconds to just enjoy seeing them together and in sync with one another. Quite lovely.
Then we get the poolhouse, the making out, the confessions, the air vent, the key-breakage, the camera discovery and Veronica going bye-bye. I admit that the first time I watched this I, like many, was a little thrown by the macking on each other, especially as done by Veronica after everything that had happened that day. However, after watching their scenes once more and back to back it made sense. When Logan and Veronica spun, kissing into that room, he made the comment about "this is how it should be." He then continued by basically saying it should just be them, no other people. They were both just giddy. And I think that was it, why they acted that way (prior to his confession): They were giddy with relief.
They've been having this secret relationship for a couple of weeks now. The secret is out now. They didn't know how Duncan would react. They know now, it's not good, but they know and clearly they are still fine with each other. Veronica didn't know how Logan would react when/if the 09ers started on her again -- recall her expression when Dick insulted her as if steeling herself. Well, she saw how he reacted -- unlike the last guy she had major feelings for (Donut), this one defended her when some jackass (we'll just ignore that this one was the jackass in the first scenario) insulted her. Recall her expression as she looked at Logan after he defended her. Now add to all of the relationship stuff, the fact that Veronica knows now that it wasn't rape as she thought it was and that pressure is gone; Logan knows that she knows he didn't rape her. That pressure is gone. Finally and back to the relationship stuff once more: They've just survived a pretty huge hurdle in their relationship and are still with one another. That pressure is gone.
So taking all of that in, it makes sense that they would both be practically giddy in their "we're still together! despite all of the last 72 hours and then some of pain!" joy. And then it makes sense that Logan would confess at that moment because if he didn't there would still be this huge lie (of omission) between them, just when they were just at that place of joy. And then it makes sense that Veronica forgave him so quickly because she just went through 72 hours and then some of pain, had a sense of peace about this enormous thing that had happened to her that while still pretty awful, thankfully, turned out to not be the horrible atrocity she'd believed that it was. And she's gonna wanna keep that sense of peace longer than a nanosecond and if that meant forgiving this guy that she does clearly care a whole heckuva lot for because he was yet another domino (albeit one of the biggies) in what led to the events of that night, I can understand.
Which brings us to one last thing that was a big huh? the first time I watched this scene: The "I need a refreshment!" Right before he said that, he let out this huge exhalation of relief -- like, THANK GOD, that's off of my chest! It was like because of his confession and her forgiveness, they were both finally at a completely clean slate for the first time in forever with one another. I equate it to some major event happening, it all gets hashed out, cleared up and then there is just this moment, where "damn, I need a drink!" This was such a moment for Logan.
And naturally, it didn't last long. Sigh. We can only imagine his reaction when he returned to find Veronica gone. Which brings us to the heartbreaking closer of the scene. Veronica, Veronica, Veronica ... I admit that I do understand her reaction, her jumping to conclusions that Logan had something to do with it. Considering all that had happened, considering all that she had learned, I do understand her assuming the worst. Unless it's one of four people (Keith, Wallace, Duncan or Meg -- go figure), that's what Veronica does when confronted with a situation: She assumes the worst of whatever individual is involved and Logan has a long-time record of being her favorite whipping boy, despite the fact that she just told him moments before that she trusted him.
Sigh. Clearly she doesn't.
And I hate it and it's depressing and terrible to take as a LoVe fan, but damnit, sigh, I DO understand where she is coming from. Logan did a lot of terrible things in the past and he just hasn't (clearly) earned any true trust back. I get that and I get where she's coming from --even if I believe that she handled it pretty damn badly. And that's where my frustration comes in play. I just want to smack her upside the head for not just sticking around and at least TALKING to the guy.
Sigh. And yet another episode ends on ... Poor Logan.

- Alicia has found out about the bugged plant that Veronica had Wallace deliver to Wiedman in Betty and Veronica. She tells Keith that she could lose her job and thinks that he is not taking the situation seriously. Veronica tries to explain, but Keith sends her to her room. As she leaves, Veronica insists that Wiedman bugged her first.
At school the next day, Veronica apologizes to Wallace for getting him into trouble, but he shrugs it off saying he knew that it was more than a simple delivery and he was okay with that. However, he does ask why Logan used the absence slips her got for her in M.A.D. and Veronica repays Wallace's kindness and loyalty by lying to him and saying that she and Logan were working on his mother's case. Bad Veronica! Later, Veronica and Alicia make peace and Alicia confides that she is afraid that she may have ruined things between her and Keith. Veronica assures her that Keith cares
about her and that they are fine.
- The Kanes apparently have a private jet at their disposal. It lands at Jet Stream Executive Charter.
- Dick has a new surfboard (briefly).
- There were about one hundred people at Shelly's party.
- Meg and Veronica have Mrs. Murphy's English class together. They are currently reading Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises.
- Dick and Madison were dating in October of 2003 when the party occurred. At that time Madison was on the Atkins diet.
- Luke doesn't seem that fond of Madison.
- Dick thinks that Veronica is hot and cute, when she's quiet.
- Veronica is going to keep her walkie-talkies in her car from now on.
- Logan left Shelly's party early with a freshman named Cindy (not Cindy Mackenzie, aka Mac, from all information available) who was supposed to be Beaver's sure thing.
- Veronica is obsessively cleaning everything she can find to try to get some control over her life.
- Veronica likes crme brule.
- Logan is allergic to shellfish, which Aaron did not know. Aaron also doesn't know when Logans birthday is (even though it is apparently not in February). Aaron grabs Logan, but releases him after a moment and does seem to be trying to be less abusive. He says that he is trying and that Logan will see that. Logan points out that when he turns eighteen, he will be out of there.

- Keith finds Duncan at a caf in Havana, Cuba. Duncan is surprised, but seems resigned that Keith is going to bring him back. He asks if Keith thinks he murdered Lilly and Keith replies that he doesn't know. Duncan is certain that he did not kill his sister.
They land back in Neptune and are greeted by Celeste and Clarence Wiedman. Keith and Clarence trade witticisms ... You know:
- Wiedman: Maybe your daughter has a future in travel planning.
Keith: And if she gets a discount and I travel the world, I'll be sure to send you a postcard. You can hang it in your cell.
Keith asks Veronica about the deal she made with Celeste, but insists that the Kanes will end up paying eventually and that she shouldnt worry. He suggests that she look for a more normal job, but Veronica says that is not necessary and that she is healthy and happy thanks to Keith.
- The entertainment lawyer that Keith has been looking for has been found in Vegas. He goes there and calls an escort, Cheyenne, and arranges an appointment. She shows up and tries to overcome what she sees as Keiths married man qualms. She is not happy when he knows her real name and wants to talk about Abel Koontz. Apparently, Koontz had a standing phone sex appointment with her at the time of the murder. Cheyenne has been running since Koontz confessed to try to avoid having to provide an alibi and revealing her true occupation to her five-year-old son.
- Logan sees Veronica at school and even though she is trying to ignore him, he follows her through the parking lot. Weevil intercepts Logan, allowing Veronica to get away and royally pissing off Logan. Things quickly spiral out of control as Weevil implies that Duncan hurt Lilly and they start to shove each other until a teacher interrupts them.
Later, Veronica comes out of her shower to hear Backup barking and to find Logan on the doorstep. He refuses to go away so Veronica finally confronts him about having the GHB the night of Shellys party. Logan is stunned that she was raped and wants to know what happened, but Veronica shuts him down. Logan realizes that she thinks he was her rapist and explains that he bought the drugs in TJ and brought them to Shellys to party. Veronica assures him that she is going to find out who raped her and make them pay, even if it was him.
Veronica begins her investigation with Meg, commenting that she is one of the few 09ers who will willingly help her. She confirms that Meg was at the party and then asks what happened. Meg, who goes in to instant evasion mode, says that she barely saw Veronica as she was leaving with Cole and Veronica having no memory of that night might be a good thing. Meg saw Logan put salt on Veronica and a lime in her mouth for someone to do body shots off her. Meg thinks they should help Veronica, but Cole points out that someone is and they leave. Meg did not see who lifted Veronica off the chaise lounge and to the present day thinks that was the extent of the evenings entertainment. Maybe cartoon birds do braid her hair after all.
Her next stop is Luke. After reminding him that she saved him in after the Tijuanua trip You Think You Know Somebody), she asks him about the GHB he and Logan bought in TJ. He confirms that he, Sean and Logan did buy it, but says that he doesn't have any left. What he had he gave to Dick Casablancas.
He tells her that at the party he, Sean, Dick and Casey were doing shots when Dick started complaining that Beaver (who was getting friendly with a girl) was getting more action than he was due to Madison not being as much of a, um, performance artist as he would like. Sean says that he is saving his drugs for something special. Dick coerces Luke to pass over his two doses after Madison comes over and complains that Veronica is there and makes it clear that Dick will not be getting anywhere with her that evening unless extreme measures are taken. Luke thought that Dick was going to take one dose and ask Madison to take the other. However, later he saw Madison, with shoe polish, writing something on Veronicas car. Since GHB is supposed to make you nicer, he is pretty sure she never took the drugs.
Veronica tracks down Madison, who is not wearing the awful flashback blonde wig, thank God. She fesses up to writing slut on Veronica's car because whore had too many letters. (Maybe she didn't think of ho? Even she could have spelled that one.) She claims that it was in retaliation for Veronica kissing Dick at the party. Her memories of that night have Veronica dancing and making out with Dick and then laying on Caseys lap and kissing him. I sincerely hope that Veronicas shots are up to date if Madisons memories are even half true because Dick, ugh! Veronica tells Madison that she was drugged and for a second it seems that the Ice Princess will show some humanity, but to no one's surprise Madison doesn't believe her and leaves.
Casey is Veronica's next witness. After beginning to blow her off he finally gives Veronica his attention after she reminds him of the events of Drinking the Kool-aid. He tells her that she did not hit on him at the party but confirms that things did get ugly. Caseys version of the story has Veronica out of it and Dick instigating things. When Dick sees that Madison is watching he shoves her onto Casey's lap. Later, Dick and Sean feed Veronica shots and arranged to have Shelly make out with her while everyone watched.
Definitely moving downward on the evolution scale, Veronica talks to Sean next. When Veronica asks him if he is up for watching some girl on girl action with her and Shelly, Sean starts getting twitchy. He insists that he was a perfect gentleman and throws Dick under the bus. Veronica is not happy to discover that Dick carried her to the spare bedroom with Sean and Beaver in tow. Dick encouraged Beaver to have sex with Veronica, seemingly totally unconcerned with her practically unconscious state. Beaver goes along with Dick to get him to leave the room, which he does after leaving behind his stash of condoms. With the amount of protection Dick was toting, either he was expecting a lot of action, or Madison insists that he is triple wrapped before she will touch him.
And further down the evolutionary process we go until we end up at Dick. Veronica has the LeBaron strategically poised over Dick's new surfboard. As she revs the engine to get his attention, he unwillingly answers her questions. He tells her that he did not give her the GHB, swearing on his life (like that's anything she'd miss). He insists that he innocently stumbled upon Veronica making a pass at Beaver in the guest room and had nothing to do with her getting there. Finally tired of his lies, Veronica drives over the board.
Next up? Beaver. He swears that nothing happened in the guest room between him and Veronica. Dick was actively egging him on, but Beaver had to throw up just a few minutes after the other boys left, which he did on Carrie (from Mars vs. Mars) Bishop's shoes. Beaver seems only guilty of leaving Veronica alone in her state and ruining Carries footwear. However, his version of the story has Sean leaving the condoms. Either way, someone had a lot of protection that night.
Carrie confirms that she saw Veronica in the guest room having sex with Duncan. Since she is working in a coffee shop, we can assume she also confirmed Beaver's story and still regrets the loss of her party shoes since she has to now work for a living.
Veronica, stricken by the news (over Duncan, not the loss of the shoes) goes to the Kane manor and demands some answers from a still hirsute Duncan. She tells Duncan what Carrie saw and breaks down as she exclaims that he was the one who raped her. Duncan cops to the sex, but claims that it was consensual and that they had an unspoken pact not to talk about it again. Let us all take a moment to consider just how stupid of a man he is. Okay, moving on.
In his version of events, Duncan found Veronica sleeping in the guest room and that they made love. All that seems missing is the violins and strewn rose petals. Veronica seems under impressed with his telling of the story and demands to know why he left her there alone looking for her underwear if it was so romantic a night. Duncan, goaded into (finally) telling the truth, admits that he left because he felt guilty having just slept with his sister. Apparently to break them up, Celeste told Duncan that they were related and even knowing this Duncan slept with Veronica. Shattered, Veronica turns to see Celeste standing in the driveway and goes to Wallaces where she finds a friendly shoulder to cry on. While she is there she shares the entire Lilly murder file with him.
Later, Veronica apologizes to Logan and tells him what she discovered. He seems shocked that she had sex with Duncan and wasn't raped. At his surprise birthday party she discovers that Dick gave Madison the soda with the GHB. Since it wasn't diet Madison didn't drink it and when she saw Veronica she spit in it and handed it to her anonymously.
- A few days after the scene with Aaron, Veronica and Logan come into the Echolls' family room from the pool, expecting dinner, and instead are greeted by a surprise party and the 09ers en masse. Unfortunately as the lights come on, they are wrapped in each other's arms, and their secret relationship is a secret no longer. It is really hard to know who is more surprised, Logan and Veronica or all the guests. Aaron, on the other hand, seems totally unfazed. Logan holds out his hand to Veronica, and she takes it as they face the stares united. LoVe fans everywhere swoon.
Dick, ever the gentleman, calls Veronica a skank to her face and Logan kicks him out. He then extends an invitation to anyone who has a problem with his "girlfriend" to leave. The only person who takes him up on his offer? Duncan. Logan tries, unsuccessfully, to talk to him, but Duncan ignores him. Meanwhile, Madison, who had called Veronica a whore to her face just a few days before, hands Veronica a drink and makes small talk about Aarons movie career. Meg warns Veronica that Madison likes to spit in drinks and give them to people she doesnt like, calling it a trip to the dentist. The penny drops for Veronica and she discovers that Madison did the same thing the night of Shellys party.
Outside, Duncan realizes that he doesn't have his car keys and totally loses it. He takes a shovel to his car, smashing the driver's side window and probably not doing much for the paint job. Meg comes upon him and realizes that Duncan still has feelings for Veronica.
A little later, Logan finds Veronica alone at the party and takes her outside. They go to the pool house where they indulge in some heavy-duty make out time. Logan interrupts their snogging to make a confession. He tells her about the body shots he was orchestrating using her body as a shot glass. She tells him that she already knew, but there is more.
When Duncan came to stop the salt lick, Logan dropped a dose of GHB into his drink and Duncan drank it. Logan feels responsible for what happened to Veronica, but she forgives his actions (a little too readily, if you ask me) and gets back to the kissing. Veronica insists that she trusts Logan (as anvils start to fall from the ceiling) and he picks this moment to want a drink; badly enough to get up from the bed and move away from a very willing and forgiving Veronica.
He takes a screwdriver from a drawer and removes the cover to the air vent. Inside is a key to the liquor cabinet. Veronica is reminded that Lilly used to use the same hiding spot for her treasures. As he is trying to open the cabinet, the key snaps and he kisses Veronica and makes for the big house for refreshment. Veronica lies on the bed, looking at the ceiling fan, and notices that there are cables running along the ceiling (not anvils, sorry, honest mistake) to a bookcase. She is able to push open the bookcase and finds monitors behind for two video cameras that are trained on the bed. She looks horrified and then we cut to her hopping on the back of Weevils bike. He asks her if she is okay and she thanks him for getting her. When she gets home her mother is waiting for her.

All flashbacks are of Shelly Pomroy's party.
- Meg, about to leave the party, tries to get her boyfriend, Cole, to intervene on behalf of Veronica as the body shots are administered to her. Cole begs off and the two leave the party. (Meg's version of events.)
- Luke, Sean, Dick and Casey standing around while Dick complains about his lack of action with Madison; Dick persuades Luke to hand over his GHB stash. (Luke's version of events.)
- Luke sees Madison write "SLUT" on Veronica's car with shoe polish. (Luke's version of events.)
- Madison witnesses Veronica flirting and hanging all over Dick and Casey in disgust. (Madison's version of events.)
- A similar flashback to the one above, this time, Veronica is interacting with only Dick, but she's clearly out of it, while Casey watches on. (Casey's version of events.)
- Dick and Sean feed Veronica's shots and arrange a make-out session with Shelly Pomroy. (Casey's version of events.)
- Dick and Sean carry Veronica to a guest room with Beaver tagging along. Dick encourages Beaver to have his way with Veronica, leaving condoms for Beav to use. (Sean's version of events.)
- Dick claims to see Veronica making a pass at Beaver in the guestroom. (Dick's version of events.)
- Beaver stands innocently by while Dick and Sean bring Veronica to the guestroom, egging Beaver on to have his way with her. In this version, Sean leaves the condoms. Once the older boys leave, Beaver is unable to perform and runs outside and throws up on Carrie Bishop's shoes. (Beaver's version of events.)
- Carrie walks by the guestroom and sees Veronican and Duncan making out and snipes that they should shut the door. (Carrie's version of events.)
- Duncan comes upon Veronica sweetly sleeping and wakes up to see him and in a tender blaze of teenage love they gently make love. (Riiiight!) (Duncan's version of events.)
- Madison spits in Veronicas drink at Shelly's.
- Logan is arranging body shots off of Veronica for a parade of 09ers when Duncan comes up and plays hero. Logan snarks a bit at him, but backs off. (Logan's version of events.)
- Duncan turns away (with a barely conscious Veronica hanging on him) and Logan slips some GHB into a drink and gets Duncan's attention. Logan apologizes with a sweet smile and hands the spiked drink as a peace offering. (Logan's version of events.)

"This Is Not a Game" (B.A.S.K.O.)

"I Touch Myself" (Saucy Monky)
Scene(s): Remember in Clash of the Tritons when Veronica sang really well? Yeah, well, we don't get a repeat when she drunkenly sings this saucy tune at the party. Oh, and it gets better when Dick attempts to sing the same ditty ... well, 'attempt' truly is the key word here.
"I Like That" (Houston with Chingy and Nate Dogg)

The fact that she's been worrying her silly little mind about such a thing happening to her doesn't matter in the larger context of your problems, Duncan. The Kane heir would no doubt be surprised that Wallace actually offers Veronica some sympathy over the situation. Silly Wallace, it's all about the Donut.

LoVe Lines
Veronica: It's kind of a bad time.
Logan: Okay. So I should come back when, never? That work for you?
Veronica: I'm so sorry. I know now it wasn't you and I'm sorry I accused you.
Logan: It's fine. You okay?
Veronica: It's not fine. I'm really sorry.
Logan: Veronica. All I care about is you. Okay?
Logan: (Whispering.) I'm sorry.
Veronica: I'm just glad you're here.
Dick: Dude, what the hell are you doing? Please tell me this is like, some new reality show called "My Skank."
Logan: Goodbye, Dick.
Dick: What?
Logan: Get out of my house. You have a problem with Veronica, you leave. Actually, you have a problem with Veronica, you're pretty much dead to me, so just, like, evaporate or something, I dunno. (A pause and then to the room of 09ers in general.) That's kind of a general invitation. If you don't like my girlfriend, then just start heading toward the rectangle with the knob.
Logan: (He and Veronica entering the room, while turning/kissing.) Now, see, why can't it just be like this? (Kissing Veronica.) Why do there have to be all those other people in this world? (Kissing her again, he leads her towards the bed.)
Veronica: What are you doing? (Logan, sitting down, pulls her with him.)
Logan: You're too short. (Veronica comfortably straddles him.) I need to level the playing field. (Logan kisses her again, while slipping her jacket off of her shoulders.)
Veronica: (With a smile in her voice.) Is this where you take all your conquests?
Logan: (Still holding her jacket, he laughs and throws his arms over his head. Releasing the jacket, he crosses his hands underneath his head.) Nope, only the short ones.
Veronica: (To Logan who is avoiding her kisses to confess.) I'm sorry, we're past the confessional portion of this program. We're on to the make out.
Logan: I'm the one who's responsible for what happened to you. And I can't take that I hurt you like that. I can't take that I hurt you when all I want to do is protect you. I want you to trust me.
Veronica: (Veronica pushes Logan down with a kiss.) I do.
In Memory
Dick: Look at that. Beaver's getting all the lovin'; Dick's flapping out in the breeze.
Luke: Please, you have like the hottest girlfriend ever.
Dick: Much like fake boobs, you know. Great to look at but they don't do as much as you'd like them to.
Quotable Quotes
Keith: (In Havana, Cuba after tracking down Duncan.) Buenos dias. (Duncan looks surprised.) I know. Of all the countries under military dictatorship in all the world ...
Duncan: So did they give you the jet to take me back home? Or am I supposed to click my heels?
Dick: (Showing off his surfboard.) Randy just finished shaping it for me. Double concave bottom with the sweetest little rocker through the tail.
Logan: Ooh and you dinged it your first time out?
Dick: What?! Dude, so not laughing. This is my child.
Logan: Okay, dude, the thought of you breeding ...
Logan: Look, you do not want to start with me today, Paco.
Weevil: Are you sure? It was in my day planner under goals.
Veronica Mars Voiceover: As a rule, people that hate you aren't that helpful. There were about a hundred people at Shelly's party. Ninety-eight of them would walk over my corpse for free gum. My 09er resources are limited but I do have a few people I can count on.
Meg: Um, can we skip English today? I have some sort of Hemingway-related narcolepsy. You start talking about The Sun Also Rises and I start falling asleep.
Veronica: Don't blame Papa. Blame Mrs. Murphy's monotone.
Clarence: Well done. Maybe your daughter has a future in travel planning.
Keith: And if she gets a discount and I travel the world, I'll be sure to send you a postcard. You can hang it in your cell.
Veronica: Remember when I saved you from drug dealers and I said I may call upon you for a favor someday?
Luke: You didn't say that.
Veronica: It was implied.
Veronica: Uh, I heard you went to TJ with Sean and Logan and scored some GHB.
Luke: Wow, that was like, ah, that was like a year ago. I don't have any now.
Veronica: (Feigns disappointment.) I was gonna spike your juice box and have my way with you.
Veronica: (About shoe-polishing Veronica's car.) Why would Madison do that?
Luke: Uh, I don't know. 'Cause she's a horrible human being?
Veronica: (As Madison looks in mirror.) You can keep asking, but you're not the fairest, trust me.
Madison: I can tell you who the pastiest is. What's the deal, can't buy bronzer with food stamps?
Veronica: You wrote 'slut' on my car last year at Shelly's party. Why?
Madison: Because 'whore' had too many letters.
Veronica: I made out with Dick and Casey?
Madison: Please. You made out with the garage door.
Alicia: She's seventeen!
Keith: She's not your average seventeen-year-old.
Alicia: Well, how can she be when you treat her like she forty.
Keith: Veronica.
Veronica: Just let me explain.
Keith: No, you just give us a minute.
Veronica: Dad, if I could just explain.
Keith: Veronica, go to your room, now.
Veronica: Fine. But he bugged me first. (She leaves the room.)
Alicia: He bugged her first?
Keith: I just can't help think that ... your life would be better if you weren't working for me.
Veronica: Are you kidding me? You're the best father in the world. I mean, come on, look at me. I'm healthy, happy, good grades, all my own teeth (She gnashes her teeth, then shows off her shoes.), fancy shoes. (Sincerely.) I never would have gotten through this past year if it wasn't for you.
Keith: If it wasn't for me you wouldn't have to.
Veronica: Ugh. This is why I need to keep my walkie-talkies in my car. Muck.
Wallace: Really? The dirt? See, I find I hardly need my walkie-talkies at school at all. But that's me.
Sean: (As Veronica pulls a chair up and stares at him.) What?
Veronica: I'm just thinking of all the ways I can destroy you.
Sean: Well you sitting there grinning is kind of torturous.
Veronica: So Shelly Pomroy and I were thinking of getting together later for a little girl-on-girl, you wanna come with? (Pausing as she takes in Sean's reaction.) Wow. You know, when you're about to soil yourself, you get a little twitch right in your eye.
Sean: Your issue's with Dick and Beaver, not me. They were horrible to you.
Veronica: Well, I'm just sorry you had to witness it. That must have been awful for you.
Dick: (As Veronica threatens to run over his surfboard.) You're frickin' nuts, you know that?
Veronica: Insulting me right now seems like a good plan, how?
Veronica: Beaver. Damn, you don't look happy to see me.
Veronica Mars Voiceover: The whole ritual cleaning thing is textbook for a reason. For a couple of minutes, you're in control and everything's the way it should be, at least on the surface.
Keith: You see another special on dust mites?
Veronica: They're disgusting, they're everywhere, and they must be destroyed.
Keith: I have any messages, or did you boil them?
Veronica: Apparently that package you've been waiting for is in Vegas. Is it a white Bengal tiger?
Keith: I'm gonna have to leave as soon as possible. Maybe you want to stay with a friend or something?
Veronica: And miss an opportunity to have the apartment to myself so that I can raid the liquor cabinet and watch Skinemax? No, wait, I'm a girl. I'm gonna do my homework, secure all the locks, brush, floss, and crawl into bed with an overly protective pit bull. You don't have to worry about me.
Aaron: (In French accent.) Ah! Especially for you tonight, I am making what will be known from now on as "Aaron's Extra Special Crab Cakes." Ha ha!
Logan: I'm sure I'll thoroughly enjoy them. Right up until my esophagus closes up, cuts off my air supply, and I shuffle off this mortal coil. (Aaron looks confused.) Perhaps my last words will be "Great crab, Papa." (Aaron is still confused.) I'm allergic to shellfish.
Aaron: Of course. I forgot.
Logan: You didn't forget. You never knew.
Aaron: I did, I -- I-- I just got you confused with Trina, that's all.
Logan: I'm the one allergic to shellfish. Trina's the one allergic to work.
Wallace: (To Veronica who's sitting in her car outside his house.) I was about to call the police on you, stalker.
Veronica: This is so not an "I told you so," but do you see why I kinda keep things to myself? I think I can go home now.
Wallace: Maybe you should just stay here.
Veronica: No, I feel better. Of course, you feel worse.
Wallace: No, I don't care about me. I just wish I could do something. Or say something.
Veronica: You don't have to say anything. That's kind of the good part.
Logan: So is this party nine months early or three months late?
Aaron: I got a lot of lost years I gotta make up for. This is my way of getting started.
Logan: (Insincerely.) It's a good call.
Meg: You don't want to drink that.
Veronica: Why?
Meg: I'm betting Madison gave you a trip to the dentist. It's her thing. She does it to people who she doesn't like. She spits in the cocktail and calls it a trip to the dentist, 'cause we're in eighth grade.
Veronica: You have no idea what you did to me.
Madison: Oh my God! I spit in your drink. You are like so scarred for life.
Veronica: (Walking in to her apartment.) Honey, I'm home.
Lianne: So am I, honey, so am I.

Havana, Cuba (Referenced as Duncan's location when Keith finds him.)
Havana (Spanish in full: San Cristbal de La Habana, usually shortened to just La Habana;) is the capital of Cuba. It is the largest city with a population of more than 2.2 million. Located roughly ninety miles south-southwest of Key West, Florida, it is one of the fourteen provinces of Cuba.

Founded in 1515 by a Spanish Conquistador, Diego Velzquez de Cullar, on the southern coast of Cuba, near the present town of Surgidero de Bataban. Havana moved to its current location on what was then called Carenas Bay in 1519. Originally, a trading port, the city suffered regular attacks by buccaneer pirates and French corsairs. In 1607, the city became the capital of the Spanish colony of Cuba, and the main port of the Spanish colonies in the New World.
Havana was officially designated as "Key of the New World and antemural -- Def: An outwork of a strong, high wall, with turrets, in front of the gateway (as of an old castle), for defending the entrance. In other words, a defensive barricade into the Spanish colonies. -- of the West Indies" by the Spanish crown. Goods traded in Havana included gold and silver, alpaca (!) wool from the Andes, emeralds from Colombia, mahoganies from Cuba and Guatemala, leather from the Guajira, spices, sticks of dye from Campeche, corn, manioc and cocoa. Shipments were received from large convoys of sailing ships guarded by Spanish military ships during the summer months.
In the middle of the 18th century, Havana, which by now had more than seventy thousand inhabitants, was seized by the British navy. The British seized the city as part of the Seven Years' War, opening it to free trade and bringing thousands of enslaved Africans to the island. In the middle of 1763, only a year after invading, the British returned Havana to the Spanish in exchange for Florida.
As trade between Caribbean and North American states increased in the early 19th century, Havana became a flourishing and fashionable city. Havana's theatres received the most distinguished actors of the age, and prosperity amongst the burgeoning middle-class led to new expensive classical mansions being erected. During this period Havana became known as the Paris of the Antilles.
At the end of the 19th century Havana saw the last moments of the Spanish colonization in America, which ended definitively when the United States warship Maine was sunk in its port, giving that country the pretext to invade the island. The 20th century began with Havana, and therefore Cuba, under occupation by the United States. Under American influence, the city grew and prospered with numerous buildings in the 1930s, when sumptuous hotels, casinos and splendid night clubs were constructed. Today, the city still has a glamour of magnificence handed down from the centuries.
Casablanca ... (Referenced when Keith found Duncan in Cuba: "I know. Of all the countries under military dictatorship in all the world.")
This 1940 film classic stars Humphrey Bogart as nightclub owner and cynical American expatriate Rick Blaine and Ingrid Bergman as his onetime love, Ilsa. It is set in World War II French-occupied Morocco. Rick struggles with both his love for Ilsa and his bitterness towards her for ditching him in Paris, and his quandary is further complicated when Ilsa asks him to help her resistance leader husband evade German capture.
Casablanca was an immediate hit and consistently ranks on best and most popular movie lists world-wide. The film won Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay in 1944. Casablanca is often remembered for its many legendary quotes, such as Rick's musing, "Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine," as well as "Here's looking at you, kid" and the oft-misquoted "Play it again, Sam." (Actual quote: "You played it for her, you can play it for me. Play it!")
The Wizard of Oz (Clicking my heels) ... (Referenced when Keith catches up with Duncan in Havana.)
The Wizard of Oz is a popular children's book written by Lyman Frank Baum. Baum was born in New York in 1856 to wealthy parents. He held many jobs but finally was encouraged to write down the stories he had been telling for years and achieved great success as an author. Over the years, until his death in 1919, he would write 40 books exploring the Wonderful World of Oz. MGM filmed The Wizard of Oz in 1939 resulting in an enduring classic starring Judy Garland featuring the song "Over the Rainbow."
GHB (Referenced by Veronica as she informs Logan that she knows he had GHB at the party, the night she was raped.)
Acronym for Gamma hydroxy butyrate or Gamma hydroxybutyric acid, Sodium Oxybate. Trace amounts are found naturally in the human body. However, the main ingredients in synthetic GHB are basically degreasing solvent or floor stripper mixed with drain cleaner. The common nicknames are Gamma-OH, Liquid Ecstasy, Fantasy, Easy Lay and Cherry Meth. It is usually found in a clear liquid, which looks just like water and is packaged in a 30ml clear plastic bottle. It is also found infrequently as a white powder.
The common effects from use are intoxication, increased energy, happiness, desire to socialize, feeling affectionate and playful, mild disinhibition, enhanced sexual experience and loss of gag reflex. Many people have bad reactions including nausea, headaches, drowsiness and amnesia. The effects of large doses include sedation, desire to sleep, rambling incoherent speech, difficulty thinking, passing out and, in extreme cases, death.
Tijuana (Referenced by Logan as he tells Veronica where he bought the G.H.B.)
Tijuana is the largest city in the Mexican state of Baja California. The current mayor is Jorge Hank Rhon of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI). The city stands on the U.S. Mexico border, adjacent to San Diego, California to the north. The city's motto is "Aqui empieza la patria", which translates to "The homeland starts here." It is sometimes referred to as the "Most visited city in the world" due to its proximity to the world's busiest border crossing. The city is commonly called TJ in Southern California. The most popular tourist attraction is Avenida Revolucion. Many foreigners visit the strip to drink, buy prescription drugs, bootleg brand-name clothing and accessories, and Mexican curiosities. There are also plenty of nightclubs in Plaza Fiesta, across from the Plaza Rio Mall that are mainly frequented by the locals. The Revolucion strip is also famous for its nearby red-light district La Coahuila, which boast numerous street prostitutes and various strip clubs.
Papa (Ernest Hemingway) ... (Referenced when Veronica and Meg were talking at the lockers.)
Ernest Hemingway was born in 1899 near Chicago, Illinois. He published his first work at the age of seventeen and went on to be considered one of America's greatest authors. In 1918 he volunteered to be an ambulance driver for the American Red Cross and was able to write about the war from first hand experience in the novel A Farewell to Arms.
Traveling the world, Hemingway made a name for himself as a prominent member of the expatriate community living in Paris, later chronicled in The Sun Also Rises. By 1926 the novel had propelled him to critical and financial success. He returned to the United States to settle in Florida, which would figure as a backdrop in The Old Man and the Sea. After it was published he was awarded the Pulitzer Award for Literature.
His private life did not mirror the success of his publishing career. Papa, as he was lovingly called by generations of readers, was married four times. He suffered from depression and paranoia and committed suicide in 1961.
Cavalry (Referenced by Logan when Duncan helps Veronica.)
Known as rescuers and shining beacons of heroic charge, the cavalry are soldiers or warriors who fought mounted on horseback. From earliest times, cavalry had the advantage of improved mobility, an "instrument which multiplied the fighting value of even the smallest forces, allowing them to outflank and avoid, to surprise and overpower, to retreat and escape according to the requirements of the moment." A man fighting from horseback also had the advantage of height, speed and weight over an opponent on foot.
The Atkins Diet ... (Referenced during Luke's flashback by Dick about Madison being on this popular diet.)
Somewhat controversial, the Atkins Diet (named after it's programmer, Dr. Robert Atkins) is a low-carb diet based on the theory that overweight people eat too many carbohydrates. Our bodies burn both fat and carbohydrates for energy, but carbs are used first. By drastically reducing carbs and eating more protein and fat, our bodies naturally lose weight by burning stored body fat more efficiently. Recent studies seem to show that those on the plan lose weight at a greater rate than traditional diets without serious effects on health. However, the Atkins restrictions (eliminating potatoes, pasta and sweets from their diets on a permanent basis) can be very difficult for some people.
Snow White ... (Referenced when Veronica approaches Madison in the bathroom, "You can keep asking, but you're not the fairest ")
A 1937 Walt Disney animated film based on a Brothers Grimm tale of the same name. Beautiful Snow White finds herself the target of her vain and very proud stepmother's jealousy. The evil Queen routinely inquires of her magic wall mirror, "Who is the fairest of them all," only to be informed one day, that her beauty is far surpassed by that of her stepdaughter. The Evil Queen, determined to be considered the fairest in the land -- a decree bestowed only by her often harangued mirror -- schemes to rid the kingdom of Snow White.
A woodsman hired by the Queen to kill Snow White helps to fake her death and run away. Snow White hides in the forest with the assistance and shelter of woodland creatures and seven dwarfs, but falls prey to the Queen in disguise and consumes a poisoned apple. The Prince, who has fallen in love with Snow White, happens upon the beauty in her dwarf-made glass coffin and awakens her from the wicked Queen's coma-inducing spell with "love's first kiss."
S'mores ... (Referenced when Casey and Veronica are discussing his experience with the collective from Drinking the Kool-Aid.)
Considered a customary campfire dessert because of its ease, S'mores consist of marshmallow, chocolate and graham crackers. Apparently named as a contraction of "some more," S'mores are created when marshmallows are held above a campfire until golden brown, removed carefully from the roasting implement and placed with a piece of chocolate between two graham crackers. The first published recipe for S'mores appeared in the 1940 Girl Scout handbook, but it is widely believed that the tasty treat was first created sometime following the development of the commercial marshmallow in the late 1800's.
Las Vegas (Referenced by Veronica as she tells Keith he's received a fax telling him the entertainment lawyer he's been tracking is there.)
Las Vegas is the largest city in the state of Nevada, with a population of 545,147 people. The Las Vegas Valley was originally part of Mexico, but American explorer John C. Frmont's sojourn to the area led to its annexation to the United States on May 10, 1855. Vegas officially became an American city in 1911.
Vegas has a couple well-known monikers, the first being The Entertainment Capital of the World. It is a popular vacation and entertainment destination, with theatres, concert halls and comedy clubs. But Vegas is most known for its gambling, which explains the city's other nickname: Sin City. Gambling was legalized here on March 19, 1931. The Las Vegas Strip is home to a number of hotel and casino resorts (e.g. the Bellagio and Monte Carlo), most of which are themed (e.g. the MGM Grand and Caesars Palace) to add to the Vegas experience. Vegas is also considered a "sinful" city because alcoholic beverages are available most everywhere and the adult entertainment industry is quite active. But this image also makes Las Vegas a popular setting for movies and television shows -- even Veronica Mars.

(Screencap from when Keith goes to Vegas.)
Cinemax (Skinemax) (Referenced by Veronica as she tells Keith about the naughty things she won't be up to while he's out of town.)
Cinemax is a cable television network that provides movies, special features, erotica programming for adults -- thus the infamous nickname, Skinemax, and other services to consumers via subscriptions. Cinemax is owned by the Home Box Office Group (which is a subsidiary of Time Warner Incorporated), and broadcasts from San Francisco, California.
Seattle (Referenced by Keith as he tells Cheyenne the places she'd been living since leaving Neptune.)
Seattle, Washington, founded in the 1850s and named after Chief Seattle (a leader of the Suquamish and Duwamish Native American tribes; he was a prominent figure among his people who became a Roman Catholic convert and pursued a path of accommodation to white settlers), is the largest city in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States.
Its official nickname is the Emerald City because of the lush evergreen trees in the surrounding area; it is also referred to as the Rainy City, the Gateway to Alaska, Queen City, and Jet City, due to the local influence of Boeing. Seattle residents are known as Seattleites. The city is known as the birthplace of grunge music, and it has a reputation for heavy coffee consumption (Starbucks is a locally founded coffee company).
Seattle's climate is mild, with the temperature moderated by the sea and protected from winds and storms by the mountains. Despite being partially in the rain shadow for the Olympic Mountains, the city of Seattle has a reputation for raining frequently. In actuality, the "rainy city" receives an unremarkable 38 inches of precipitation a year, less than most major Eastern Seaboard cities, such as New York City which averages 47.3 inches. Seattle's worldwide reputation for rain derives from the fact that it is cloudy an average of 226 days per year (versus 132 in New York City) and that most of its precipitation falls as drizzle or light rain. In other words, while it rains regularly, it usually doesn't rain very hard.
San Francisco (Referenced by Keith as he tells Cheyenne the places she'd been living since leaving Neptune.)
The City and County of San Francisco is the fourth-largest city in California and the fourteenth-largest in the United States, with a 2005 population of 739,426. It is located on the tip of the San Francisco Peninsula and is the focal point of the San Francisco Bay Area, whose population is seven million. San Francisco is the second most densely populated major American city, after New York.
The Spanish were the first Europeans to settle in San Francisco in 1776 and they named the settlement for St. Francis. When the gold rush hit in 1848, the city experienced rapid growth. Even the devastating earthquake of 1906 (one of the worst natural disasters in United States history) could not stop the San Francisco explosion. The city was quickly rebuilt and is today one of the most recognizable cities in the United States. Famous hallmarks and landmarks include the San Francisco cable cars, the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz Island.
Aspen ... (Referenced by Keith as he tells Cheyenne the places she'd been living since leaving Neptune.)
Founded as a mining camp during the Colorado Silver Boom, it's now known as a celebrity-rich ski resort. Names after the corncucopia of aspen trees in the area, it is the the largest city (and county seat) in Pitkin County, Colorado. Skiing became the thing following World War II when Walter Paepcke founded the Aspen Skiin Company. Paepcke was a Chicago industrialist who wanted to create a utopian community for the mind and body. (Yes, apparently skiing provides this mental and physical rejuvenation!)

- In the previously ons Veronica's car now has "ABEL IT Should've BEEN HER" written on it.
- The whole episode seems heavily inspired by Akira Kurosawa's Rashomon.
- Shelly is a different actress than in the Pilot.
- Logan cradles his arm slightly after his confrontation with Aaron.
- Keith is cutely awkward in the beginning with Cheyenne.
- The faces of the entire Echolls family (Aaron and Lynn on the more visible left ones, and Logan and Trina on the right) are on the curtains in the pool house.
- How skillfully Rob Thomas brought back so many people from previous episodes and weaved them into the story. Bravo.
- Veronica has a Cuba poster in her bedroom.
- Veronica totally shoving the guy out of the way so that she can talk to Sean.
- Beaver's very cute "Wow."
- When Veronica first looks at the video monitor the shelf only has a few things on the far right hand side. The next time she looks at it there are vases and other things on it.

- In his haste to get to his avoidance-heavy lady love, Logan's skips with excitement, no doubt trying to endear Veronica with his adorable (albeit fey) adorableness.
- And now that he has her by his side as they make their way to the poolhouse, the excitement is now shimmering with joy and the boy can't contain himself as he does a little side hop.

- How did Keith know that Duncan would be at that caf? Assuming he knew where he was due to the passport, its still rather a big town.
- Did Duncan think that the beard gave him that rugged, 'on the lam' look? I hate to break it to him, but it just looks like he forgot to pack a razor.
- Why does Duncan care if Keith thinks hes guilty? Or was he really asking if Veronica still thought he was guilty? How does Duncan now know that he didnt kill Lilly?
- Did Veronica confide in Weevil? Or could he just tell that Veronica didnt want to speak to Logan and saw this as an opportunity to screw with Logan?
- What did Weevil think that Logan did to Lilly? "Lay your hand on Veronica " Does he think that Logan killed Lilly, or just hurt her physically?
- I know I have asked this before, but what was Weevil and Lilly's relationship like? Was it just sex for Lilly, or was there more to it for her?
- Why does Veronica have her makeup on when she was supposed to have just gotten out of the shower?
- Why didn't Logan ask Veronica what was going on before school on presumably Monday? Didn't he try to get in touch with her Friday when she missed their date in M.A.D.? Does anyone else feel that the night confrontation scene and the schoolyard scene with Weevil should have been reversed?
- Logan seriously needs some parental supervision, what with the drugs and the drinking and the cutting school. Of course without these things he wouldnt be our beloved woobie.
- So Cole and Meg were dating for over a year by the time Like a Virgin was set and they never got to second base?! That seems, odd.
- How guilty does Meg feel for leaving Veronica at the party? And if she thought the salt lick was the only thing that happened, did she ever wonder where Veronicas bad reputation came from?
- Did Veronica wear the same dress to Shelly's that she wore to the spring formal in The Wrath of Con?
- Where did the jet land? It looked like a private airstrip. Boy, the Kanes have everything, don't they?
- Why didn't Veronica tell Keith about her conversation with Celeste? I know she didn't think they would get stiffed, but he might have found the information useful.
- Why was Wiedman at the airstrip? Was Celeste expecting trouble from Keith?
- What were the pills Celeste gave Duncan? Why didnt he take his meds with him? If it was for his epilepsy, wouldnt that be dangerous?
- What has happened in the last few weeks to freak Celeste out? Was she referring to Weevil in Lillys room, or is there something else going on?
- So was the buying of the GHB an isolated incident? It seemed from the conversation that Veronica had with Luke as if he had not bought drugs in Tijuana in over a year (except for You Think You Know Somebody, of course).
- How did Sean afford the GHB in the first place? Did he really still have it, or did he sell it?
- Does Madison even like Dick? Because I really have my doubts.
- Madison is wearing jeans for the writing on the car scene but a skirt at the party. Why did she change clothes?
- Was Madison really concerned that Dick would rather be with Veronica or was she just looking for an excuse to be a bitch?
- Could Keith afford for Veronica to get another job? He seems to rely on her at the agency pretty heavily. Another assistant would probably get paid more and strain their resources even more.
- How much trouble did Wallace get into for delivering the plant?
- Will Alicia lose her job?
- Casey knew how out of it Veronica was, why didn't he intervene?
- Feeding Veronica shots and encouraging his brother to rape her; Dick is just a prince among men, isn't he?
- What made Wallace suspicious enough of Veronica to check up on the absence slips? Why did Veronica lie to him?
- How long has Dick been dating Madison at the party? Did he know about her spitting trick? Also, when it was obvious that Shelly had not drunk the soda, who did he think had?
- Who did Keith think Veronica could stay with? Alicia is mad at her and she doesn't have any other friends beside Wallace. Nice detective skills Mr. Mars!
- Why is Keith still lying to Veronica about who the entertainment lawyer really is?
- When is Logan's birthday?
- Why did Aaron seem so bothered by the idea of Logan leaving on his 18th birthday? Or is it just the idea of a self-sufficient Logan that he doesn't like?
- Why is Carrie working? I thought she was an 09er?
- Even with the drugs and the sibling issues, Duncan thought it was okay for Veronica to wake up alone without even a note? Niiice!
- If Veronica was as out of it as Beaver described, how was she even able to participate in the act with Duncan? Was Duncan still a virgin that night too?
- How did Veronica refrain from not hitting Duncan when he snottily commented that not being able to remember is a bad feeling?
- How much did Celeste hear of Veronica and Duncan's conversation? Will Duncan ever forgive her when he finds out that she lied to him on purpose?
- Did Veronica tell Wallace everything?
- What exactly does a double duty escort do?
- Where are Logan and Veronica when she apologized?
- If there was a phone record that proved Abel was not murdering Lilly, how did he get convicted?
- Does the cut to Veronica's apology seem really abrupt to anyone else?
- How did Aaron get all the 09ers to the party on such short notice? How did he even know whom to invite? Also, where are all the cars? How did Logan not suspect there were forty people in the house?
- Aaron had to know after M.A.D. that Logan and Veronica were keeping their relationship a secret. Is he really that unaware, or did he know that he was outing them and was just making the best of the situation?
- Why would Veronica take a poured glass of anything from any of the people at the party? Did she learn nothing at Shelly's party?
- How does Meg know about Madison's predilections for spitting in drinks?
- Is that really the best time to discuss Duncan's feelings for Veronica, Meg?
- Was Duncan's outburst due to his epilepsy or his poor impulse control?
- Why was Veronica so willing to blow off Logan's involvement in the salt lick? For that matter, how could she do the same for the drugging of Duncan?
- Please tell me that isn't Casey in the salt lick flashback because it looks like his shirt.
- Logan knew that Duncan was playing white knight for Veronica; what did he think was going to happen when he gave him that laced drink at that particular moment?
- Why did Logan break things off at that moment for a drink in the pool house? It seemed weird.
- In An Echolls Family Christmas, there are liquor bottles on the counter in the room where Logan held the poker game. Why are they locked up here?
- Veronica doesn't have her bag. How did she call Weevil? Why did she call Weevil? Why didn't she just ask Logan if he knew about the cameras? What did Logan think when he came back to find her gone?
- Was Liannes treatment over? Or did she leave the rehab facility?
- Whose cameras are in the pool house?
- Where did Lilly hide the secret pen that Weevil stole back in Hot Dogs? Is that something she would have left on her desk, expecting the secret message to remain secret, or would she have put it into the vent in her room? If it was in the vent, did Weevil see the video tapes?
- Where is the shelf that Veronica sees on the monitor? When she was in the bed it looked like a window behind her.

- In regards to Weevil's reference to Lilly's bruises in relation to Logan, originally Rob Thomas planned that it would be revealed in flashbacks that it was Duncan causing the bruises on Lilly when he had seizures. Alas, due to time constraints that issue was never cleared up and we now have an assault accusation that's never been contradicted.
- During the flashbacks, we see Veronica walk past a car that has 'slut' written on the window along with 'Abel it should have been her' on the back. Though it's deemed a previously on Veronica Mars, it never aired during The Pilot. Rob Thomas must have succeeded in his attempt to talk the Network into it even though they balked when he originally tried to air it in The Pilot.

- Veronica's finding of the video set-up in the pool-house was almost identical to Lilly's finding.
- Logan mentioning that it was from him that Lilly learned how to hide stuff in the air vent.
