mars vs mars

[schmerica]

Am now caught up on Veronica Mars through "Mars vs. Mars". Which episode, I have to say, Logan's mom's storyline is really boring. Logan, I love you so much more when you are being an asshole than when you are being weepy.

Also, Veronica, I love you, but I'm totally judging you for automatically going the "Trampy Slut Girl trying to ruin Fine Upstanding Teacher Man!" route from the beginning. Especially since teacher man was kind of creepy. (Although I did love the line about his daughter's megalomania and reactionary politics.)

And, oh, Duncan. Keraaaaaaazy. And not like a fox. More like a really crazy person.

Yes, its a leap. But TSG was obviously biased towards Duncan, and thought he was a great catch and a good guy, and thought that Veronica didn't deserve him and all that jazz. She seemed to be taking the position of "what did that bitch DO to him?" rather than, "wow, is that guy crazy." And since at that point in time Duncan was behaving non-crazily in school and also avoiding Veronica, TSG probably thought that a) he wasn't really crazy, he just freaked out at something Veronica did to him, and b) he's pissed at Veronica for something she did to him. Yes, bitchy and catty and theorizing-without-knowing-all-the-facts, but she was working off a solid base, not just making shit up.

Of course, I saw the episode a week ago, so I could be mis-remembering things, but thats the way I saw it, and Veronica seemed to see it that way, too, by the end of the episode. Didn't she even VO something like, "okay, maybe she isn't lying about everything" when she looked up the info on Duncan's medication?
