Wow!
I really, really loved the episode.
Great example of what the show can do when it's not tangled up in coma babies.
Veronica's mission: awesome! A bit cliched, but it's one of those things that just has to be done.
I loved her experience as a reporter too, trying to get the story and then getting it, and then, once again, being conflicted when the people she was trying to expose weren't actually that bad and the person she was working for exploited her.
I do like snarky Veronica, but she's only human and I love it when they take her down a peg.
Wallace & Logan: adorable!
I thought their little experiment was very cool. Something different.
The racist jew-hater guy was
intense. I kinda hope we don't see more of him.
It was both serious and fun, and I liked that.
Parker: Yeah, I think I like her.
That wig is inappropriately hilarious.
Now that she and Mac have hugged it out I hope they can be friends.
It's pretty clear that since she's been raped she's not going to be all dumb and slutty any more, and I'm glad.
No Piz! No Weevil!
The Keith thing was a bit confusing again. I'm glad that he's okay though. And I liked the parallel with Veronica's storyline.
The painting in the briefcase is cool with me.
Liam killing Cormac? Not unexpected. I did think that Keith set the trap, so...yay writers. You got me!
Lots of drama and intensity and gore with that storyline. It contrasted a lot with the sorority girls. I still don't think it's great for new viewers, but the show is all about keeping fans on their toes and since that part didn't take up too much of the episode I'm okay with it for now. I'd hate for them to dumb the show down [Alias style] for new viewers and have it backfire [Alias style].
Lamb!
He's such a jerk but that's the Lamb we all know and tolerate.
I like how they moved the rape mystery along a tiny bit, throwing out a few clues [?], so that it stays fresh in our minds but it doesn't tread all over everything else happening.
Veronica acting drunk was hilarious. Logan streaking was hilarious. Dick being Dick was hilarious.
There wasn't much LoVe interaction but I really liked it. They could still convert me to being a shipper, just not a rabid one.
I'm thinking 8/10.
