especially when we haven't been introduced to one true good guy yet except Wallace, who's been neatly put into 'friend' category. Yep, Wallace is the good Xander-ish friend guy. But at least he's already gotten some happy life stuff. He's not getting taped to flag poles anymore and he's got potential girlfriend Georgia. Now we just gotta wait for the "looks like he's bad boy dangerous guy but really he's the one you can count on". Oh wait, we've got a truck-load of possibilities there. ;D **cough, Weevil, cough, Logan, cough** Lola

Veronica had the long hair, but were the pics taken before or after Lilly's death? Why would Veronica be threatened before Lilly's death and the sheriff's involvement. She said her mother tried to get her to leave school and then disappeared three days later. Clearly there was some (moderately extended) period of time after the death (investigation, Mars kicked out of office, family financial slide downhill, mom starts to drink) but before mom left. I'm guessing both the photos (implied threats) and the disappearance have to do with Lilly's murder. Ms. Mars knows something. Now, is Jake Kent paying her off (which is way easier than threatening Veronica) or is he trying to buy information from her? Has Veronica ever said, "my mom disappeared xxx months ago?" I remember nine months being mentioned but not sure if its 9 months since her mom left or since the murder.

I'm gonna have to go too. Watching Jon Stewart together is hubby bonding time. But I have to say---I'm loving having this thread! I can come back tomorrow and reply to whatever else you discuss. (And, okay I'm weird, I love having the pages 1,2,3,4,5 pile up on the front page.) I suspect the LOST thread will fill up really fast! I like this too. Night Sue...

I was going to say that I think she used some of the money she got from the 10% commission on last week's caper with Georgia.

Well, Duncan may not be bad--just confused and medicated and in pain. Logan--hmm. Yeah, he's pretty gray--knew there were drugs and didn't give a rip. But, at least he's honest with Veronica--he's not over the past and he's not going to pretend that he is. Eetah on both! Duncan is just so screwed up right now, but I think he is a good guy still underneath. He dropped Veronica when he saw it as a loyalty to family thing - heck, she did the same, really, in sticking by her dad. I do like that honest aspect to Logan. It's what made him want to do right by Lily with the video. And what made him see Weevil's point of view earlier in the ep a few weeks back with his cousin. Lola

I thought the same thing... about access to money. It was my first thought because she had like 7 or 8 phones she was sending out. I was looking at them spread out on her floor wondering just how much those all cost her. Not much...disposable prepay phones... come with some time.. 7-8 phones.. a couple hundred dollars at most 3...adn didn't Veronica make some fundage with her case last week? From the girl that was taken by the computer con guys? She got a percentage from the several grand she recovered for the girl. Vlad

No sign of Georgia, but the teacher showed up again, so there's some hope - that some of these are continuing characters. I am liking the newpaper / journalism teacher. Liked how she called Veronica on her cruelty to the girl who was snotty to her about Troy. Because that was pretty cruel. And I think her speech about how people sometimes hide the truth from themselves was really important to what happened in this ep, and for future ones, too. Lola And I should really go to bed now.

me too...that was really sweet and sad. Nice acting by both of them in that scene. Very nice acting. Kind of still awkward, yet you can tell that they were really starting to care about each other. He's sorry to be doing it, but you know he's gotta put his daughter first and so he's just trying to be very calm. And how can she argue with that? Just that little bit of stiffness as she pulled away and slightly crying. Her line about "just pull the bandaid off" - very nice bit of writing. Lola Really really going to bed now.

First episode and maybe second, it is stated that VM's mom left about a month after the murder, which happened 9 months prior to the pilot and is probably about 11 months now. There was a time frame reference in ep 3 I believe that made it like a month between that and hte pilot.And we have had two eps since then. Vlad

The credit card ep (#2?). Beach party at the beginning. Troy is in Duncan's car. Duncan takes him to introduce around. Paris Hilton recognizes him from hanging out at the yacht club. Troy's dad is an architect and they move around for his jobs. (But they seem to have a home locally so he's been in town before and now again.) Ah, thanks, Sue! I also haven't been taping this. (Which I'm realizing has been a mistake. There's plenty of stuff that I wish I could rewind and watch over. All I can hope for is re-runs. Try to catch it from the start again.) Lola That's it. I'm turning the computer off and going to bed right now, missy!
