Veronica Mars Investigations

Posts tagged cigars

**A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:**

We have a new Duncan: Detective Duncan! Meg had written about a kid she babysat being psychologically abused, and he and Veronica set out to find who it is.
Veronica takes on all of Meg’s babysitting gigs, and let’s just say the toxic masculinity of Neptune is flourishing in the under-10s.
She also befriends Gia Goodman, which entails going to the sleepover of nightmares - if your nightmares include seeing a child punished, having your boobs mocked, and enduring some extremely basic-bore chat about pizza.
In all that free time Veronica has left over, she investigates the plastic surgeon who claims he witnessed Logan murdering Felix.
And the Casablancases deal with the repercussions of Richard’s scams and escape: the boys get trust funds, and Kendall gets nothing. And things aren’t looking good with her backup career of Logan. But… what about her backup backup Duncan?

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 7: Nobody Puts Baby In A Corner, and probe such mysteries as the French maid trope and the Milk Tray Man; which is more tedious at Gia’s sleepover, the boob insults and Pretty Woman chat or the pizza carbs chat; and why this episode would mention a bachelor auction fundraiser for the sheriff’s department but not actually show us the frantic bidding for a date with Lamb and Deputy Sacks. So cruel!!!

VMI 2.06 Rat Saw God

**A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:**

Logan gets arrested for Felix’s murder, is put in a jail cell with his dad, and his house is burned down. Oof!
Abel Koontz turns up - he needs Veronica to find his daughter Amelia DeLongpre, so he can see her before he dies.
Amelia took her $3m of Kane fake confession payout, and spent it on international good times - then disappeared in the midst of a foam party in Ibiza.
Keith loses the sheriff race but keeps sniffing around the bus crash case - and finds a strange clue in the wreckage.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 6: Rat Saw God, and probe such mysteries as Clarence Wiedman’s computer setup, Clarence Wiedman’s dressalike assistant, Clarence Wiedman’s JOKE, Clarence and Veronica’s buddy road trip movie (well in our dreams)... We also wonder about the PCHers’ supposed Panty Club, dads vs dads, Cliff being the best worst lawyer, and Weevil’s tattoo of a dog in a hat.

VMI 1.10: An Echolls Family Christmas

**A LONG TIME AGO, ON VERONICA MARS:**

It’s the most wonderful time of the year - you know, when you get stabbed at your own Christmas party.
It’s also poker night at Logan’s - but where is all the money?
We meet a new BroNiner, we think - but is everything as it seems?
And someone AT LAST calls out Logan’s racist jokes. Merry Christmas everyone.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 10: An Echolls Family Christmas, and get stuck into such mysteries as: what the heck is happening in this poker game? How much is a Fabergé egg these days? And how/why are Duncan and Logan wearing matching festive underwear??
