elizalavelleVeronica Mars: Nobody Puts Baby In a Corner, TWoP highlights
The math of Veronica goes like this: about 60% awkward-interrupted makeout, 20% happy to see Logan because he's awesome, and 10% confused as to whether this has anything to with her
my math goes like this 70% happy to see the V/D action stop, 30%LOGAN!
"My codeword will be...'endurance.'" He says this to Veronica, basically, which makes this the first time he's addressed her, by the way, which is hella tight. He then gives a little spirit-fingers wave and heads back to endure him some Kendall. Duncan is...jealous? Annoyed? Happy to see Logan gone? Insecure?
Oh Duncan, I don't know if he's supposed to act like a ZOmbie or can't act... so confused.
Woody Goodenberg is golfing and laughing creepily as Keith approaches to once more check on Lamb's coverage of the bus crash, because that's like his whole deal, especially now that he's finally been informed that it was an assassination attempt on his daughter. Woody glad-hands him that they have a shared "vision" for Neptune, and that his newest scheme is to make it an actual city, like Carmel and La Jolla, rather than a county seat.
because this way next year they can feasably have a univesity there and keep the show dynamic working ;)
Duncan explains that the boy's parents "make him write these admonishments over and over, hundreds of times." Stuff like "I was bad, I deserve to be punished," but I'm more interested in how Duncan managed to learn the word "admonishment."
LMAO
Mr. Fuller escorts her out: "We'll definitely call you again. We have a standing dinner date with friends on Fridays...Saturdays, of course, I'm on my boat by myself if you ever wanna come by, smoke a J, fool around...We usually do a day trip about once a month with my boss, if you don't mind working on a Sunday." Veronica's kind of stuck on the whole "fool around" part, although Meg just got a lot cooler for me personally, and Mr. Fuller is very friendly and not creepy as he passes her a drawing Edwin did for her and says goodnight. The picture is of Veronica, with her head flying through the air and blood spurting all over. Wow. This Neptune place.
first of all these babysitting things were great and OMG someone on their staff babysat a lot because I've had so many of these experiences (no I'm not telling you which ones lol) and the families were spot on.
Gia answers her door all flipping out and weird. I don't know if she's supposed to seem unglued, or if the actress is still making choices, but generally Gia makes me really uncomfortable and skeeved out. Some of her lines are funny, and I thought she was especially excellent after the crash, when she was neither obnoxious nor self-conscious but managed to sell a pretty difficult line, but...I don't know. I wouldn't want to hang out with Gia in real life, because she would make me nervous, and that would make me tired.
I am still undecided about the character, but her hair needs restyling
Duncan has the disproportionately developed pectoralis majors of a former fat kid. I call this the Jeff Corwin syndrome -- hot, but with history. Kendall disrobes and asks Duncan to scratch her back, offering her very finely manicured nails for a return of the favor. What? When you talk all weird and "I've got an itch" like that, it makes it creepier than if you'd just said, "I'm a little low on cash and I'd like to do it with you in exchange for money. Whaddaya say?" Duncan's...intrigued? Scandalized? Into it?
They totally slept together. Duncan is creepy and also now dirty. At least we know he sucks in bed so Kendall can't have enjoyed working for her money.
Logan's flipping around on the TV when Kendall comes out of Duncan's room, making sure to wipe her mouth where Logan can see. You have no idea how close I came to titling this recap "A Six-Month Follow-Up Trip To The Dentist." I don't actually think they did anything, because it's Duncan, and the only interesting things he's ever done were (a) kill his sister; (b) sleep with his other sister; and (c) go off his meds, become a Ghost Whisperer, and learn to fly. None of which stuck.
While I think they did something this quote is freaking hilarious!
Veronica says that she prefers, altogether, private investigating to babysitting, and mentions that it's a "sad state of affairs" when you can't actually tell "which kid's being locked in the closet," even after several hours of observation, because "all the families are equally cuckoo." And you know she says "cuckoo" in the cutest way imaginable.
you seriously NEVER know what's going on in families until you work for them......... then it's all creepy.
None of the three stolen homework assignments matches the notebook -- and then Veronica notices that the admonishments are in the handwriting of a little girl, and not a boy at all. Duncan -- like he's never once seen Veronica intuit like a champ before -- protests that Meg was talking about a little boy. She's smarter than you, dude. Let it ride. Hell, she's smarter than anybody.
"Veronica Mars is smarter than me" -- "oh stop"
fucking great episode, watch it :)
