i have major issues with Veronica not cutting Weevil down from the flagpole. haven't they sort of reached a truce? or is she mad at him again for burning Logan's house down? i just really don't think she would have left him there. yes, i know it's possible she cut him down off camera, but why not give us a SO to season one and how much things have changed since then?

meh.

Kendall coming on to Donut in the hotel reminded me so much of Cordelia from seasons 2/3 of Buffy. i can hear Cordy saying every one of those lines.

the Trina/Kendall smackdown? loved every second of it, but that could be the Buffy lover in me. i wonder how non-Buffy fans felt about it. i love the look on Logan's face when Trina is asking Kendall if she's sleeping with her little brother. see?



so cute and he does look young there. also? i'm loving Logan's sweaters this season. i almost have more love for them than the jackets from last season.

i love how when Keith and Veronica are discussing whether or not Lianne was a "cool" person and V dumped the fake!baby on the counter facedown, he very subtlely turns the baby over so it stops crying. he's even a good daddy to a plastic baby!!

Charsima is so damn pretty.



Cassidy finds value in her desperation. i find jealousy in her extreme hottness.

is it just me or is Teddy Dunn less attractive this season? last season he was at least moderately hot. this season they're dressing him crappily and just generally making him look less than stellar. i wonder if that's a concious decision. i know RT asked why fans weren't drooling over TD coming out of the shower like we did for JD, but come on! surely he can see the difference...

i loved the Veronica/Celeste face-off too. i still wish they had made her the killer last season. maybe i found Duncan semi-hot last season because he was angsty. if his mommy had killed his sister, i think we'd have angsty Donut right now.

"you don't mind your dirty laundry mixing with your clean laundry, do you?" woo boy, Donut! V's already been pissed off once about being kept a secret. now she knows you've been keeping her a secret from the parentals.

the Logan/teacher scene was odd, wasn't it? why does he "always ask to go to the bathroom" that period? seems like a throw-away line, but maybe not.

Logan/Weevil fight? awesome. very real and reminded me of the Keith/Aaron fight from the finale because of the realness of it. also love that as Clemmons and security are hauling them out the bathroom, a girl has out her cameraphone to capture the moment on film.



not really a whole lot more to say about this ep except i'm glad Meg is finally coming to. oh and Clemmons is totally an evil genius and that little smirk as he's changing his nameplate is awesome. however, the MoTW only really stands up on the original viewing and is pretty boring on rewatch. definitely not one of the best eps of the season.

oh there was one other thing, that scene of Trina and V walking and talking about the Echolls and Mary? i was distracted the whole time by how much smaller Kristen Bell was. having met Alyson Hannigan i know how small she is. i mean, i know(from reading marsinvestigations.net interviews) that KB is 5'1'', but seeing those two together really put it in perspective.
