VMI 1.13: Lord of the Bling
A LONG TIME AGO, ON VERONICA MARS:
Neptune’s own gangsta rap record boss, Bone Hamilton, needs Keith to find his daughter Yolanda, who is missing, presumed kidnapped.
A long time ago, Yolanda and Veronica used to be friends - but they haven’t talked lately at all. What went wrong?
What went wrong is LOGAN, but that’s nothing compared to what he’s having to deal with this episode.
And Wallace has a new hairstyle, don’t touch it Veronica, please.
Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 13: Lord of the Bling, and try to solve such mysteries as why you would dangle someone out of a window to get them to sign a contract when doing so voids a contract; how the Marses choose a bug from their vast collection; whether the world’s biggest blender counts as a blender when it does not contain blades; and why Logan is so well versed in Broadway hits of the 1890s.
Content note: Veronica Mars contains heavy themes, and this episode includes storylines concerning family abuse and suicide.
