Love Hurts...and Burns Too - 
by J-Unit
Veronica searched the registration of all of the kids at school, but none of the had a red pickup. As soon as I saw that none of the kids at school had a pickup, I immediately thought of that kid Lucky. They mentioned that he was always trying to relive his glory days in high school by buying beer, and nothing says I've outgrown my glory days than wearing your letterman jacket years after you have graduated. Originally, I thought that Lucky was involved in this episode in another way. Keith had a bunch of mug shots of the person who paid the hooker to take Cliff's briefcase a few weeks back and wanted Veronica to help out with the mailings. I saw the gross soul patch he had going on and thought it had to be Lucky, but taking a look at it, the guy in the mug shot was way too thick to be him. Later, the story got stranger. Veronica was folding the pictures and putting them into envelopes during study hall, when Logan noticed and said that he recognized that dude. It was his dad's cellmate. Hmm, it looks like Aaron Echolls was using somebody else besides Kendall to help his case along.
Keith and Veronica are watching news of the ballot measure when Veronica asks him for a little help. Her father is glad to be of any assistance unless it requires that he possess knowledge of math, physics, chemistry, English, or, well, anything other than P.E. Sort of hard to think that Veronica got all her brains from her mom, and she surely didn't get her looks from her dad, so maybe we can thank him for giving her all of that spunk and sass. Veronica has a question about the Gia Goodman case, and so she pops in a DVD. Keith hears DVD, sees creepy stalking type recording, and hears that the Goodman's are involved, and right away ties it together with the other DVD Woody received. He knows that this is going to be more than a case of some obsessed school kid, so he tells Veronica that she should just stay away from the case.
Veronica decides that she will stay away from the case, but still thinks she needs to warn Gia. She sticks around after school hoping to catch Ms. Goodman leaving after she finishes writing her human interest story on the lunch lady who tap dances or whatever, but Gia wants to avoid Veronica even more. Besides, the alterna-prom is that evening and Veronica decides she might want to go. However, leaving the school, she notices the red truck. It is parked in the space labeled "maintenance", meaning it belongs to a janitor, meaning it is Lucky that was stalking Gia.
Her dad told her to stay away, so Veronica calls him first, but after fifteen minutes she decides that her taser is enough to protect her. She hears voices in the school and sees that Lucky is talking to Gia. Veronica desperately tries to get Gia's attention, but she is preoccupied with Lucky and all of the scars from combat his is showing her. When Veronica does get her attention, stupid Gia isn't very discreet, and soon Veronica is the janitor's closet with Gia, Lucky, and a huge knife. Just when you think there aren't enough psychopaths in this town, we find another one.
I don't usually freak out about television shows, but I really started to worry when Lucky pulled his knife out. Veronica is not going to die, or else there isn't much point to the show, but that doesn't mean I can't be worried about her safety. Just as I am about to wonder when Veronica is going to pull out her taser, Keith Mars comes flying through the door, and takes out Lucky. He is strapping the handcuffs on him just as Sheriff Lamb and his boys are walking in. This is unfortunate because Keith still wanted answers to why Lucky was stalking Woody. When Lamb tells Keith to stop the questioning, Keith cuffs himself to Lucky, and then throws away the key.
Whenever Lucky is on screen, I can only think Slingblade
I know that was probably enough excitement for most of you, but we still had the Alterna-Prom to deal with. Think about how Logan and Dick would envision the perfect party, and that's basically what you have. Corny was there, sans brownies, but he was wearing one of those t-shirts with a tuxedo graphic on the front that I have always wanted to buy. Mac was there and looked very cute, even though Butters looked like he had bought his tux at Zorro Outfitters. I mean seriously, did that thing say "The Gay Blade" or what? We of course had Dick, who was drinking straight from the party keg on his shoulder, although I prefer to call it a pony keg because it sounds funnier. And there was Logan, and I should have guessed that he would be the douchebag that wore the white tuxedo jacket.
