grrrrargh
Well, *that* was a bad idea. There I was watching VM on the edge of my seat and I got to the part where Veronica and Duncan start watching Lilly's tapes and the boss arrives.
*Dammit*
I have to wait until lunch now.
*Dammit*
I knew I shouldn't have started watching.
ETA: A few hours later...
Seen it all now!
Ohhhhh, so that's who was in the poolhouse. Heh. This is going to be very jumbled.
And I guess we all know how much I love Backup but he truly did rock in this ep. He *knew* Logan was the good guy (with the no ripping-out-of-throats thing) and then the suprise!Backup in the car? Yay! My puppy's a hero! I cheered out loud then.
Logan. *Sims!Sigh* I don't think many actors could pull off this character nearly as well. And I think I've discovered why I had the initial attraction because when he looks down and crinkles his brow in *just* the right way, Logan looks like MR in Zoe, Duncan, Jack & Jane. No, seriously. But I love him as Logan now, and I *knew* he didn't do it.
But he's not gonna jump right? I mean, Weevil's gonna talk him down. I bet you Weevil has Logan's letter to Lilly ('cause the vent screws were loose already and we know Weevil had been in the room earlier - I just don't know why he didn't take the tapes). So now Weevil will know that Logan loved Lilly just like he did and he'll understand. And maybe they'll have sex. Ahem. Actually, he'll probably just yank Logan down onto the ground, throw the letter at him, and ride off. But I like the sex idea very much all the same.
Wallace. Yeah, where was Wallace? He better be standing outside Veronica's door at the end, or I'm gonna get cranky. I know next season will probably be all about the Duncan/Logan angst, but a girl needs her best friend at a time like that, and since her dead one just left her, Wallace is it.
Unless it's Leo. That'd be okay with me. I'm still pretty much a LoVe shipper, but I don't want it to be Logan. Couldn't tell you why.
Duncan really is growing on me, though. I had a horrible feeling that they were going to pull something out at the end which proved that Aaron didn't do it, and maybe they might next season, you never know. It'd be kinda fun (in that bamboo shoots under the fingernails kind of way) to reveal it actually was Duncan at some point.
The thing I love about Veronica as opposed to the girl she's most often compared to - a certain little vampire slayer - is that she's a 17 year old girl. A real one. Sure, she's stronger than most because she has to be but there are some things that she really has trouble handling. Like cases that are personal (the rape, Lilly, her mom) and I *liked* that she didn't really question Lianne being home at first because she had her family back. Kind of.
And, the Craven-esque-ness of that sequence aside, I liked that she was scared of Aaron. Because she *should* be. She's a tiny girl, albiet smarter than most, and she's *seen* Aaron beat a guy to a pulp already. There's no way you could be calm in that situation so the crying and screaming? Completely justified IMO.
But the *best* part about this episode, and the entire series, was Keith and Veronica. The Mars family (Backup included, Lianne excluded) are the best on television right now and I'm so glad he's her real dad, though I would have preferred that they didn't ever check (like Veronica signing the contract without hesitation). Of course, they're detectives, so I get it.
Lianne? Are we going to focus on her next season? 'Cause they're going to have to work hard to get me to ever care about her at this point. There's still blackmail stuff to tidy up though, right?
And I do like that there are still things that need tidying up, and maybe not everything we think we know at this point is set in stone anyway. I was worried about what they were going to do next season but I think there's enough to start with after this, and I'm glad they're not doing a Lost and dragging the mysteries on for too long.
