dangermousieThe VM last night was a solid ep, though not as good as last week's
THE GOOD:
So, Woody is a child molester? Not surprising. Still icky though.
Wallace and Jackie and all that stuff. Sorry, still not caring.
Loved Beav and Mac cuteness. Nothing is cuter than geeks in love. Please get back together, kids. The tutoring is awwwwwww. Especially Mac's "if I help you get an A, will you shiv him?"
Weevil passed but is now going to be arrested for murder. Hmmmm. Though Lamb is actually being useful in this ep and listening to Keith. Lamb is slowly mellowing. I wonder why.
Loved Keith (best dad ever) going for the lawyer's throat. Loved the utter devastation on Veronica and Logan's faces as the verdict is read (and how in character for V to blow off her uber-important tests to see the verdict).
Logan's testimony? OMG. Painful. I ended up watching through my fingers. Having to describe to a courtroom full of people the details of sex between your father and your gf? Oh. God. Poor Logan is emotionally beyond a mess: he is barely holding together not just during his testimony, but during his scene with Aaron and while watching Aaron testify or V's testimony.
Aaron. Even slimeball. And more of him. Yay.
THE BAD:
Are we to believe that nobody but Logan and Veronica saw the tapes? Not the prosecutor, not Lamb not anyone else? Come ON. They would have them authenticated and with a chain of custody REALLY quick.
The chlamydia thing? For one thing, medical records are confidential and thus can't be used. For another, it's not probative. And it's character evidence, can't be used in these circs. No way would this ever be admitted into evidence. Gets me pissed off.
Boo-hoo, V can't go to Stanford because of no scholarship? Yes, indeed. Except for the fact that Stanford is need-blind, so if they accepted her, they would arrange for loans/grants so she could go. Not to mention that with her grades, she would have no problems getting grants and loans. How much disbelief can I suspend?
So, Logan and Veronica didn't talk since alterna-prom? I find this a bit hard to believe.
