VMI 2.07 Nobody Puts Baby In A Corner

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 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.
