VMI 2.04 Green-Eyed Monster

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • Veronica’s latest client, Julie, is rich pretending to be not rich and hires Veronica to investigate her boyfriend, who she fears is not-rich pretending to be rich - keep up!

  • Keith is reluctantly investigating Alicia, who’s lying about a man from her past.

  • And Weevil’s earrings are more than very shiny: they’re important to the plot.

  • Meg is still in a coma, but nonetheless coming between Veronica and Duncan, who has been visiting her every day.

  • But before Veronica can get into that, she needs to get into Meg’s secret laptop before her controlling parents get wind of it.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 4: Green-Eyed Monster, and delve into such mysteries as how, if you’re on potential engagement/converting to Judaism terms with your beloved, would you not know whose home they live in; why ‘dim sum and then some’ is so very unappetising despite dim sum being on offer; how the hauntedness of a haunted house is measured; how to make an American Girl Doll’s cardigan fit an adult human; and why magical time-travelling shit is always happening in Scotland.

VMI 2.01 Normal Is The Watchword

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • Keith’s got a book deal!

  • Veronica’s got a new job!

  • We’ve got a new Duncan - happy Duncan??!!

  • Wallace has got a problem with his urine…

  • Logan’s got a murder charge, a broken heart and no friends, but the Casablancases’ hot stepmom is there to cheer him up.

  • There are a whole load of new characters, and a new big tragedy for Neptune: a school bus crashes off a cliff.

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 1 Normal is the Watchword, and try to crack such mysteries/pissteries as how Keith Mars got a book published so fast, where smart sassy Veronica disappeared to, whether pantsing takes down both under- and over-pants, and whether the Neptune Onlyplace is REALLY a cafe/restaurant/bar/karaoke joint, or merely an abandoned warehouse full of unusual light fixtures and decorative twigs.

Veronica Mars Investigations Investigations season 1

Here is a bonus episode investigating unsolved mysteries from Veronica Mars season 1, such as the prudence of hiding stuff in air vents, how long Lilly and Aaron had been involved and whether Lynn know about it, the appropriateness of having the hots for someone as often awful as Logan, whether Veronica speak Spanish well or not at all, when ARE Veronica and Leo’s birthdays, and whether the sanitary vending machine in Veronica’s toilet office actually vends.

VMI 1.15 Ruskie Business

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS:

  • A Russian mail order bride wants Veronica to find her lost love, an actor named Tom Cruz. (Note: NOT Tom Cruise.)

  • Meg Manning wants Veronica to find the identity of her secret admirer - which rich white boy of Neptune could it be??

  • Logan’s on hotel stakeout in the hopes of finding his mom.

  • Keith is being tailed by two guys in terrible suits.

  • And could one of them lend Logan some pants?

Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 15: Ruskie Business, and probe such mysteries as why Wallace is STILL unable to resist doing favours for Veronica when said favours earn him a reputation as a jockstrap-sniffer, whether Veronica just has a stack of bridezilla props ready to go, and whether we’d rather go to prom with “some kid with that high school kid look” or a trashcan with boobs.
