Veronica Mars 1.9 FAQ
What’s it called?
“Drinking the Kool-Aid.”
What does TV Guide say?
“Veronica defies her dad when she helps him gather information as to why an ‘09er classmate (Jonathan Bennett) joined a cultlike group. Elsewhere the teen sleuth takes the next logical step following her meeting with Abel Koontz and tracks down the person who shot the photos she found in her safety-deposit box.”
Does Veronica learn who shot the creepy photos of her?
She does! So efficient is young Veronica that she determines before the opening titles roll that Clarence Widman was behind the camera.
Ah! Clarence Widman has been secretly photographing Veronica?
Precisely.
Who’s Clarence Widman?
Engage Invisotext! The shadowy Mr. Widman, Veronica learns, is Kane Software’s head of security.
What else is TV Guide not telling us?
At the end of last week’s episode, Koontz indicated that Jake Kane was Veronica’s real father! Which would mean Veronica used to date her own brother! And that Veronica’s murdered best friend was really Veronica’s sister! And that Veronica might be heir to zillions! This week, Veronica sends a sample of Keith Mars’ blood to a paternity-testing lab ...
Does Veronica get the paternity-test results back this week?
She does. They arrive in a thin manila envelope.
So do we learn that Keith Mars is not her dad?
That would be a major, major spoiler. Highlight the following Invisotext at your peril!! In the episode’s closing minutes, Veronica (rather uncharacteristically) shreds Keith Mars’ paternity-test results without reading them. “Jake Kane could be my father,” she explains in a voiceover, “but whether he is or isn’t, I’m not going to deny the man who raised me.” Huh. My own sense is Veronica is going to wind up getting back together with Duncan Kane at some point, so we’ll soon learn this “Veronica Kane” business is just more misdirection.
Any sign of the late Lilly Kane, the hot guidance counselor or Veronica’s mom this week?
Nope.
What’s good?
The conversation on the waterbed in general, and Santa’s “grave doubts about second-floor deployment” in particular.” The Jerry Springer runner. A younger Weevil’s unexpected taste in lyrical content.
What’s not so good?
The “ultimate cash crop” reveal is beneath this series. And I suspect the ending of this installment, which I’m guessing is the last new one we’ll see in a while, will frustrate a lot of fans.
How does it end, spoiler-boy?
“Beautiful day, huh?” asks Wallace. “Yeah, it is,” replies Ms. Mars.
