Penises Can Sometimes Be Distracting - 
by J-Unit
Before we start off with this week's recap, I just wanted to remind everybody that Veronica Mars is switching to Tuesdays at 9PM, starting April 11th. Our poor girl got trounced by idol and barely kept the ANTM audience so it's on (hopefully) to greener pastures. For a show that always has some speculation floating around that it is going to get cancelled, this is not great news, but that still doesn't take away from the here and now. I have been telling anybody who will listen, whether it be at a bar or a dinner party, that Veronica Mars is the best show on television. While that might make me the least interesting person in the room, at least my conscience is clean. Last week, Veronica found some explosives and detonators in the Terrence Cook's hangar. You remember; it's the one where he keeps all of his fine cars.That's not to say that that Terrence Cook is guilty of homicide, but it will make Keith's job a lot harder.
I have never seen a Veronica Mars episode with so many flashbacks at the beginning of the episode before. That's probably because it has been off the air for so long. I will try to fill people in on some of the details as I go along, but remember you can always check the archives for something that you missed, and please leave a comment if you think there is something important that I missed. As we race towards the season finale, we all have to keep on our toes.
Like I said, Veronica found explosives and detonators in Terrence Cook's hangar, but as we know, it really isn't Terrence Cook's hangar. It actually belongs to Woody Goodman, but oddly enough, it seems as if the people investigation haven't really picked up on that little part of the case, which seems strange because you would think that Veronica or her dad would pick up on this. Whatever the case may be, it really causes a conflict of interest for Keith, who is obviously working for Terrence, but is too good of a man not to report evidence that would help solve the investigation. Keith reports the incident to Sheriff Lamb, who loves seeing Keith come back asking for Lamb to investigate days after Keith came into that same office asking him to stop the investigation.
Now even though Terrence may have killed those kids on the bus, it is still only the second most scandalous murder involving a celebrity in this crazy town of Neptune. That title goes to Aaron Echolls, who is being featured on the latest "Tinseltown Diaries", the Veronica Mars equivalent of the E! True Hollywood Story, narrated I believe by Harry Hamelin (the actor who plays Aaron Echolls) for extra comedic effect. I have to say, I actually felt sorry for Logan at the beginning of this episode. Say what you will about Duncan Kane, he was somebody that was there for Logan more often than not, even when you consider their histories with Veronica. Logan's best friend is now Dick Casablancas who is too busy enjoying himself making jokes about how Logan’s dad got lean off of all of those tossed salads to take a moment to think about what his friend is going through.
Veronica is watching Aaron defending himself on television during a shift at Java the Hutt, but she does have a job to do. Wallace's new girlfriend, Jane, is there with her sister, who is on stage singing Karaoke. Usually when somebody horrible is on stage, the producers like to follow it up with a ringer who is actually a singer in real life, but not this time. Jane's sister Heidi is having her bachelorette party, and before you say who would be lame enough to have a bachelorette party at a coffee house, Java the Hutt was only the first portion of an all-night bacchanalia that the girls had planned that night. They were going to do a whole scavenger hunt thing, including the time-honored tradition of talking a man out of his underwear. Let's hope that the guys they ask have better hygiene than Scott Long. Personally, I tend to avoid these sorts of gatherings like the plague. Then again, maybe I wouldn’t if more of them included number eight, which wasn't explained to us, but which Veronica thought should have some mouthwash at the end.
After soaking in the way Keith cam groveling back to him, Lamb eventually went to the hangar where Terrence kept his cars. As Keith was getting there, he saw the bomb squad removing something, but Lamb made him wait until the press conference before giving him any more information, even though there weren't exactly throngs of people breaking down the barricades for a word with the Sheriff. At the press conference, Lamb announced that there was now a warrant for Terrence Cook's arrest, but nobody knows where he is.
