Veronica Mars Season 3.12: "There’s Got to Be a Morning After Pill"

"There's Got to Be a Morning After Pill"
Airdate: February 6th, 2007

I don't blame Veronica for how badly this episode sucked. She did what she needed to do. She broke up with Logan and wouldn't even listen to his whiny poor-me-boo-hoo drunk dialing crap. And she took on another job to keep that tuition money flowing in. Nice job, sister, keep up the good work. I think she even managed some mention of studying.

But this week's mystery? Completely unbelievable. And in the end, she didn't even solve the mystery. She just happened to blurt out her incorrect hunch in the presence of the guilty. Does she still get paid for that?

First of all, I'm pretty sure Mifepristone doesn't work like that. It's a two-shot deal. One dose now, another a few days later. I guess the first dose could mess things up enough to trigger a miscarriage, or the culprit could have dosed twice. It's all pretty shaky. And what's with Bonnie's personality morph? She seemed rather normal and likeable in this episode, not like someone who would date either the cretinous Dick or the troll-like Tim.

And would Veronica really think that Dick would be smart enough to engineer an RU-486 theft? Instead of a wadded up Maxim magazine where his heart should be, he's got a Date Rape for Dummies book where his brain should be. Yes, Dick's dumbness is worth waiting for, but after the Nadia Komenich incident, I don't want to see Veronica overestimating him again.

One good thing happened this week -- a televangelist turned out to be a good guy. Thank you writers for not stooping to the obvious religious-freak culprit. How nice (if also a tad unbelievable) that a TV preacher is more concerned with love, life, and forgiveness than hateful vengeance and tear-soaked telethon dollars.

OK, now let's talk about Weevil. He gave a little lip to the lit professor with the overly smiley gratitude. It's about time he chafed a little at his position, jeez. But then he agrees to steal and crush Madison's car without a blink of his reformed-gang-leader eye? And Veronica had the cojones to ask him to risk his rehabbed rep for a little lovesick revenge? Come on, V, have a little more respect for your buddy Eli. If he gets caught he's going to jail while you'd barely get probation. This was all sorts of wrong. And then to back out when the sound of the bible thumping in your head got too loud. Sheesh.

I'd like to just forget most of this episode, but clues to the big mystery seeped out here and there. And this is, of course, important. Most important is the teeny bit of what I'm assuming was eggshell that Keith picked out of the Dean's windshield. That points suspicion in Mrs. Dean's direction, but then there's the broody teenage boy to consider. He's grumpy, he listens to bad teenager music, and the Dead Dean almost sent him to bad boy boarding school. That's called motive. And it's also called Red Herring #1.

Let's just put this behind us, people. Don't blame Veronica. She just works here.
