dangermousieSaw 2.02 Very well done.
OK, first off? Veronica and Duncan have sex? Pass me the lye. I need to scrub my eyes out. Please don't tell me that wouldn't bring up the pseudo-rape issue. Ugh. I am still recovering. No. Ugh, ugh, ugh.
But it was almost totally worth it to get that Logan/Veronica scene afterwards. Guuuh, all that bitterness and unfinished business? When he tells her that "if cuddling is the best part, than he just isn't doing it right," guuuuuuuuh. He is trying to be snarky, but it just doesn't work. He sounds more sad than anything. I must admit that my mind went just straight to the gutter where I guess Logan demonstrates the difference. :P No prizes for guessing who'd be better.
And I love how Veronica automatically tried to find out who was in the room with Logan. Because that's jealousy, pure and simple. They are not together any more, there's nothing illegal about him having sex in a hotel room etc etc, but she tries to find out right away.
OK, note to TPTB: Logan and Veronica have more chemistry in that one little scene than Duncan and Veronica with the sex. So do something about it. Give me more L/V scenes. They don't have to be making out, I just want some interaction.The making out comes later.
In other V/D news, Veronica continues her happy denial with Duncan but the cracks begin to show: his complete ability to ignore the bus crash really annoys her. Maybe she'll realize avoiding is not coping.
Veronica and Duncan together annoy me. Really really really. You know, how I liked Logan the more I saw of him? The more see of Duncan, the more I want something to fall on his head.
But I love Veronica by herself: she is certainly a lot more like V 2.0. Her edge is beginning to emerge.
The new girl who is clearly here only to be Wallace's love interest? *Yawn*
Daddy Mars is running for Sheriff! Yay!
I love Veronica getting some of her edge back, slamming that girl's locker, being back in the investigation room etc.
Logan? Still screwed up. I loved the scene at the shooting range, where Mr. Casablancas tries to tutor him about "life philosophy" and Logan says his Dad used to share it, only his Dad was a murderer. Heeee. Also loved the bit when Dick says they should have girls over to the house and Logan replies he lives by himself and Dick replies that only crazy girls want to go to the house of the murderer. I love Logan's reaction (hurt? rage? vulnerability? mix of all those?) which is so quick and he suppresses it but not entirely. It really must be hideous for him to stay in that house.
Kendall and Logan crack me up. There is no annoyance there probably because I am shallow shallow shallow and there is shirtless Logan. Also, Beaver finding out Stepmommy cheated? Yes. Because I foresee drama!
The bus driver thing is interesting. The plot thickens: the Veronica Mars written on the guy's hand? Creepy.
The promo killed me. I can't wait to see Veronica's reaction to who Kendall's boytoy is. Also, whoever caused the crash wanted to kill her? Please don't let it be Logan. Please, please, please.
