VMI 1.17 Kanes and Abel's
A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:
Veronica tracks down Abel Koontz’s daughter and hides her in a motel.
Veronica also grudgingly takes on the case of uppity student Sabrina, who is being harrassed to the detriment of her midterms.
Jake and Celeste Kane did some covering up on the night of Lilly’s death, with the help of Clarence Wiedman.
Who is all over the place spooking everybody in this episode, keeping it subtle and undercover by wearing a very noticeable hat.
And! There’s another PI in town - Vinnie Van Lowe. He has a fake moustache and no morals. But he sure can sing Hall and Oates like a champ.
Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 17 Kanes and Abel’s, and probe such mysteries as how the hell dinner at the Kanes’ house always manages to be soul-destroying, why if you’re supposed to be acting stealthily you’d go around wearing an outfit you stole from a 1940s gumshoe, and why you’d have such primped hair when you’re in hiding.
Content note: Veronica Mars contains heavy themes, and this episode includes storylines concerning violence, murder and mental health.
