Veronica Mars: The Wrath of Con

Veronica MarsIn an unusually slow week of voting, the Veronica Mars fans take over this Sunday’s DVD viewing slot, just like they take over every Tuesday. Let’s go way back to episode four of the first season. Come on, it’ll be fun. I promise.

Veronica and Troy are making out on the balcony outside her motel room home. That was eight full minutes of making out. They didn’t show it all. Now Veronica has a big smile on her face. It won’t be too long before that is wiped off her face. I was right! Thank you, memories of Veronica’s murdered best friend, Lilly Kane.

Veronica is helping out one of Wallace’s friends who was dumb enough to fall for a message 419.

Troy and Veronica are going to homecoming together. This leads to more flashbacks of happier times with Lilly and Duncan Kane.

Karl, the message 419 fellow, turns out to be an actor who thought he was part of some Punk’d reality show. Now Veronica must go undercover as a gamer geek at a cyber lounge. This seems awfully 90s to me. I love the 90s. Just kidding, that’s when middle school was. Middle school sucks.

Wallace and Veronica are both undercover at the scammer’s dorm for an Around the World party. Oddly, the crook’s dorm room had a security system. And it wasn’t just boxes of ramen stacked in front of the door.

These college nerds have been scamming people in order to raise capital to make their own video game. Wallace is keeping them distracted with a sneak peak of the Matrix Online game. Veronica stole their hard drives, ransomed them for the money they stole, and then Wallace got the kiss from the scammed girl he was waiting all episode for. A lot has been accomplished this episode.

This weekend I woke up early to go to the farmer’s market. That is like cleaning your house ten times and mowing the lawn. It takes more willpower than you think.

And the episode ends with Veronica stopping her homecoming limo, leaving everyone inside, and skinny dipping by herself. There was stuff leading up to it the whole episode, but it didn’t make for interesting commenting. So I am leaving you in the dark. Now you know how Ray Charles felt. He felt good.
