A LONG TIME AGO, ON VERONICA MARS:
-
Logan and Weevil are stuck in detention together - and honestly, that’s all we need for this episode.
-
But there is more - Veronica’s (beautiful) pregnant neighbour Jessica Chastain disappears.
-
And her (scraggly) boyfriend doesn’t seem upset about it…
-
Veronica discovers some shocking information about her mom.
-
And the school flagpole is back causing trouble.
Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 7: The Girl Next Door, and probe such mysteries as whether to book ourselves in for a stay at the motel that plays the Mars apartment, how many crimes it is to impale a teacher’s car on a flagpole, and why hot teens might be compelled to wear garments in a shade we can only describe as ‘light liver’.
