VMI 2.14 Versatile Toppings
A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:
After a year and a half of being a one-line character, Corny finally gets his own plotline! One that involves him getting tased by a serial mugger of pizza deliverers.
Is the mugger also targeting Neptune High students who are gay and will pay blackmail money not to be outed?
And is the mugger also targeting students in interracial relationships?
Plus: Logan is dating Hannah to get at her father, the fake witness implicating him in Felix’s murder.
Hannah’s none too pleased to be used, but nor is she pleased to find her dad’s coke stash.
Keith meanwhile finds proof to exonerate Terrence Cook from the bus bombing…
...but then Veronica finds some explosive evidence.
Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 14: Versatile Toppings, and consider such mysteries as why you’d give Veronica a PRINTOUT of a supposedly very secret confidential website, whether Veronica ever uses the toilet, and whether it’s our brain or the plot of this episode that is a stupid mess.
Content note:Veronica Mars contains heavy themes, and this episode includes storylines concerning homophobia, transphobia, murder, gambling, and drugs.
