Vomit? Me? Well, sorta.
So, I watched it.
Okay, well, I've not seen 12 Angry Men, so I won't comment on the parallels between the movie and the episode. Homage Schmomage. I would have liked it if Veronica had actually been, uh, angry. About something. For more than three seconds.
Duncan and Veronica:
Okay, look. Here's what I had the biggest problem with and where I vomited the most. Her boyfriend has known his ex was preggers for awhile. He probably had a sheet-twisting tryst with Kendall. He has the personality of a styrofoam cup. And yet, Veronica is all, "Oh, this has nothing to do with us, boo hoo hoo, but hey, I'm so awesome and loving and forgiving that I'll help you get in to see your ex who is preggers with your love child." Like, no. No, no. No. Excuse me, but if my boyfriend who has the personality, again, of a STYROFOAM CUP, who probably is lackluster in bed, who has a host of crazy issues and problems, who DIDN'T EVEN TELL HIS PARENTS WE WERE BACK TOGETHER, is all "Yeah, I knew she was pregnant from this letter that I manipulated you into helping me steal," then I'd first hit him, hard, and then I'd proceed to tell him all the reasons he made me want to vomit all over his FACE.
I guess I'm angry for Veronica. Since when did she become such a doormat in need of love and acceptance so badly that she's willing to sacrifice her personal integrity? Grow some balls, Veronica, dump Duncan. This isn't a pro Veronica/Logan thing, it's about the fact that she's just some shadow when she's with that stupid idiot. Agg. It really makes me very angry.
Vomit point #7558984: "I know, I'm amazing."
Yeah, Veronica, amazingly stupid.
If I thought I couldn't get any more upset, we then have to be subjected to hospital promises. Veronica, dude, yet again-- wake up-- this child is not your responsibility. If she ends up taking up house with Donut and naming the baby Lilly, I will just, well-- for lack of a better thing to do-- vomit.
Enough of the vomiting. Let's move on:
Keith's investigation-- wow, this is what kept me going. I heart Keith, and while the mayor creeps me out (he reminds me of the mayor from Buffy. I keep waiting for him to start eating nasty bugs to prepare for his transformation into pure evil)--I loved his scenes. It helped to make the neverending trial more bearable. Logan and Keith-- even better!
Logan and the tapes and the tears-- God, I love Logan. I love him to the very core of my being. The tears-- well, they made me cry. They were real, and believable, and I understand why he took the tapes and erased them. Some things are too painful, you know? And when I think about them being played at the trial and how much more devestating that would have been to Logan, to have an audience see the tapes-- an audience of strangers-- I can't help but condone the tape stealage.
What I don't get is why not having the tapes will result in Aaron not being convicted? Don't we have enough evidence-- esp. with Veronica's testimony-- to convict? I didn't get that. If Aaron is released from the big house then I guess that will bring even more drama to Neptune, but that storyline could get really dark...and it makes me think of the gun/bomb theory -- you don't show the gun unless you eventually plan to use it, you know what I'm sprayin-- and the only person I can see Logan using that gun on is his dad, and I can't handle Logan becoming a murderer. For real.
While they are other things to talk about (Leo, for one) I'll move right on to the return of the BFF. Yay! I'm glad Wallace is back, I've missed him. Maybe he can show Veronica what an idiot she's being/has been/still is
That's all for now. I'm glad that Donut disappeared for the rest of the ep. I wish he'd just go.away.
And take the baby with him, damnit.
In other news, I'm going to see Jason Mraz tonight! Rock!
