Eps, 1.12-1.17
1.12
REBECCA: You know, you're never going to come to terms with Lilly's death if you keep all that pain bottled up inside you.
VERONICA: Wow. I have that exact same platitude-a-day calendar at home. It's how I know beauty comes from within.
VERONICA: I need to ask another favour.
WALLACE: This mission better involve me seducing the head cheerleader.
VERONICA: I need you to poke around and see if you can get me a fake ID. If you must seduce the head cheerleader in order to accomplish your mission, so be it.
WALLACE: No sweat. How do I do that?
VERONICA: Play on her insecurity.
WALLACE: I meant the fake ID part.
VERONICA: Okay. Let's pretend for a moment that this mythical head cheerleader of yours has just asked you out on a date. In exchange for seven minutes in heaven, you have to get her into the hottest nightclub in Neptune or at least buy her a pack of strawberry wine coolers. The stakes are high, Wallace Fennell. Think, now. How would you do it?
WALLACE: Hey, Veronica?
VERONICA: Yeah?
WALLACE: I need you to get me a fake ID so I can get some fake action from a fake cheerleader.
VERONICA: Hi, Dad. Their case is fuzzy and circumstantial.
KEITH: You know the odd thing? Those were also her very first words.
REBECCA: Why were you broken up?
LOGAN: Uh, we were supposed to go to this party. And, uh, Lilly was pissed at me for something, I can't even remember what, you know. And, uh…Lilly stands me up. I end up getting pretty hammered and…wind up kissing this other girl for like three seconds.
REBECCA: And Lilly saw you two?
LOGAN: Nope, someone else did. You must know her. Word is you're real close with her dad. You could do better.
REBECCA: You need to leave my personal life out of this, Logan.
LOGAN: Yeah, let's not get personal about this.
REBECCA: You know what, it sounds like you blame Veronica.
LOGAN: You know Veronica was my friend too. And if she hadn't ratted me out…then Lilly and I would have stayed together. And Lilly wouldn't have been alone that day. I would have been there. So, yeah, I blame Veronica. And I blame myself for being stupid and I blame Lilly for being a bitch that week.
REBECCA: You know there is another of looking at this, Logan. If you'd still been together, you might be dead too.
LOGAN: And what is so great about living?
VERONICA: Hi everybody! Say "repressed homosexuality."
1.13
VANESSA: Yolanda took riding lessons.
BONE: Like on a horse? First time I saw a horse, I was thirteen. Damn thing was on TV.
Talking about Lynn Echols' suicide:
WALLACE: Did she really leave a note on a Blackberry?
VERONICA: Yeah. Talk about post-modern.
LILLY: Glad to see you guys are equal opportunity oglers.
LOGAN: Hey, I judge not by the colour of the skin but by the content of their sweater.
LOGAN (to Aaron): If you really want flowers, dying seems to be the way to go. Here's your costume. You know, if it's not sad enough, I can order you a veil.
AARON: You remember that day we all went to the zoo on your tenth birthday. We told your mom that we were all gonna get dressed up in costume as our favourite animal. You remember her animal.
LOGAN: Yeah, it was a mermaid.
AARON: When she realised we played a trick on her, no one else had gotten dressed up…she wore that costume around for the rest of the day, anyway.
LOGAN: Yeah, I remember that day. On the way home I spilled a milkshake in the Beamer and you gave me a nosebleed.
AARON: You poured that milkshake out in the backseat because we didn't buy you a monkey then when I went to grab you, you smacked your head against a window.
LOGAN: I guess we just remember it differently, Dad.
AARON: Have you heard from your sister?
LOGAN: Yeah. She sent a telegram. Heartbroken. Stop. Can't make it back from Sydney. Stop. Underwater scene shoot tomorrow. Stop. Entire crew said prayer for Mom. Stop. Love you. Stop.
AARON: Logan.
LOGAN: Stop? Boy, there's no people like show people. She did send a wreath though. Gah, it's gorgeous. Tulips and hyacinth. Probably set you back hundreds.
AARON: Your mom loved tulips.
LOGAN: Yeah, it was an overwhelming gesture.
LILLY: It's not my fault. I can't help it, God made me fabulous.
LOGAN: You know what Mom would have wanted! She would have wanted you to not sleep with all her friends. She would have wanted you to care as much about her as her career. So okay, Dad, let's be honest. Maybe we both wished we'd been better. But she's only gone because of you.
LOGAN: Do you think next time we have one of these funeral things that ICM will let us use the boardroom. You know, so there's no travel, no trailer size negotiations. I don't know, it's just a thought. Can I get you anything? Mimosa? Finger sandwich? A tissue?
1.14
VERONICA: I heard she left a note.
LOGAN: Well, yeah, she wants people to think she's dead. But if she was going to really do the deed, it would be chardonnay and sleeping pills. You know, she wouldn't risk being found bug-eyed and bloated in some shrimp net.
VERONICA: Don't look to me for sympathy. Carrie has had a long and storied reign as the gossip queen of Neptune High.
WALLACE: You get a crown with that?
LOGAN: Well, I'll go with you.
VERONICA: Actually, despite popular opinion, you really can't beat the truth out of someone.
LOGAN: Listen, I'm going.
VERONICA: You're not.
LOGAN: 'Kay, what are you going to stop me with?
VERONICA: Force of will, strength of character, tenacity, karate chop...
KEITH: Carrie kept a very detailed diary of her affair with him. It's full of times and dates. She recorded the very date of a weekend she spent in a hotel with him when her parents were out of town. She writes about him taking her to a fancy restaurant in San Diego after she won the District Extemporaneous Speaking Competition.
VERONICA: So? That doesn't prove anything. I could write down that I met Kid Rock every weekend at the Hedonism Lodge for sensual massage and smoothies, but that doesn't make it true.
KEITH: I did a cross check of Rooks' credit card history. The charges match Carrie's diary.
VERONICA: She could have followed him.
KEITH: Sweetie, it's very specific. And I don't want you seeing Kid Rock.
LOGAN: There's a woman who saw my mom get out of her car and get in a van with a mysterious stranger.
VERONICA: There's also a jungle tribe that worships Donald Trump's hair. It's a tabloid.
LOGAN: What, so the girl with the pig arm can't really bowl?
VERONICA: I just don't want you to get your hopes up.
LOGAN: I'm not paying you to worry about my hopes. I'm paying you to follow leads.
VERONICA: I wasn't aware you were paying me.
LOGAN: This isn't a favour, it's a job, you know. I mean, we're not exchanging friendship bracelets.
VERONICA: I'll stop braiding.
WEEVIL: If you're looking for my trophy, it's back by auto shop.
VERONICA: A lube job? Or can you medal in stealing hubcaps?
WEEVIL: Is this 1970? Rims, baby.
VERONICA: So you got a trophy for a rim job?
WEEVIL: Forget it. Look, I got some information for you.
VERONICA: Finally, a Deep Throat to call my own.
WEEVIL: I'm not going to touch that one.
1.15
VERONICA: I mean, wouldn't it be cool to have glasses in the kitchen that didn't have the Hamburglar on them?
HOTEL RECEPTIONIST: I'm sorry. But the lobby's reserved for hotel guests only.
LOGAN: So book me a room, Jeeves. Bring me a room service menu while you're at it.
Oh, I love this scene. It's heart-breaking and witty and painful and so gooooood. Also, I love the fact that Logan tries to stop Trina before she mentions Aaron's "parenting" in front of Veronica.
TRINA: Did you just call me Mom? You okay, brother? You know Mom's gone, right?
LOGAN: Wow. You're supposed to be in Australia.
TRINA: Yeah, well that didn't work out. Veronica, hey!
VERONICA: Hello, Trina.
TRINA: So, is the whole brat pack here? What is this, like, like, prom night. You guys get a room here for some after-party. Oh, hey. Oh. I've been kinda outta the loop lately. Are you two-
LOGAN: Stop! You shut up. You're wearing Mom's clothes, you're wearing Mom's hat.
TRINA: She was your mom, my step-mom. The lady who liked to parade though the house in a string bikini, whenever I had a boy over.
LOGAN: Yeah, well to be fair when didn't you have a boy over.
TRINA: Oh, you…
LOGAN: Dad could've used you there.
TRINA: So now you're worried about Dad's welfare. Isn't he the big bad wolf? Cigarette burns and broken noses. Oh, the stories you used to tell.
LOGAN: Wow, we should get together and do this more often.
TRINA: Yeah, well, you're in luck. I'm heading home now. I guess some accountant finally cancelled Mom's cards.
LOGAN: But if you're coming home, who will play Dead Hooker Number Two on CSI this week. How will you get your attention fix?
TRINA: Maybe I can be the ring girl at one of your bum fights.
MEG: Well, what do you think?
VERONICA: I look like Manilla Whore Barbie.
1.16
CLEMMONS: And what do you normally charge for something like this?
VERONICA: A lot. Yeah, it's gonna set you back.
CLEMMONS: How far back?
VERONICA: Personal letter of recommendation. I'll write it, you'll sign it. My own parking space and... a different locker, preferably in the east hall.
CLEMMONS: The letter and the locker, fine. But you're not getting your own parking space.
VERONICA: Can you get me out of PE?
CLEMMONS: No.
VERONICA: How about a few excused absences?
CLEMMONS: How about one?
VERONICA: I'm thinking three.
CLEMMONS: Miss Mars...
VERONICA: You're the one with the missing bird.
CLEMMONS: Fine. Two.
VERONICA VOICEOVER: Pan High, the Un-Neptune. Just 15 miles away but when those miles are heading inland, there are no yacht clubs and no $5 million homes with coastal views. The parking lot is full of American-made cars from the nineties and the vending machines don't carry Orangina.
VERONICA: Guess you couldn't tell Dad you were in a hotel with your ex.
LIANNE: It wasn't like that.
VERONICA: I doesn't matter what it was like, Mom.
LIANNE: I just went there to talk to him.
VERONICA: On the one day all the Starbucks were closed
LEO: I hate to bribe you but I'm fairly certain that aiding and abetting qualifies me for a dinner date.
VERONICA: Actually, it qualifies you for dinner and a movie but you undershot, so…
LEO: Damn.
1.17
VERONICA: Hello? Yes, this is Miss Sabrina. Bad boy, well…Mr Greeley of Encinitas. Twenty grand on credit cards, two divorces and a repo'd Sebring. You have been a bad boy. Miss Sabrina commands you. Put your pants back on and get a job.
