1
00:00:33,650 --> 00:00:34,914
Logan, what are you doing here?

2
00:00:37,281 --> 00:00:38,709
I want you to find my mother.

3
00:00:41,202 --> 00:00:43,619
Relax, I'm not asking you to drag the lake.

4
00:00:45,072 --> 00:00:46,906
My mother didn't really kill herself.

5
00:00:47,448 --> 00:00:48,605
Come inside, okay?

6
00:00:54,337 --> 00:00:55,942
Veronica, she's not dead.

7
00:00:57,905 --> 00:01:00,448
What makes you think she's still alive?

8
00:01:00,571 --> 00:01:02,558
Why does everyone assume that she's not?

9
00:01:03,172 --> 00:01:04,468
I mean, there's no body.

10
00:01:05,878 --> 00:01:09,173
What about the woman who saw her jump? It's been on every channel.

11
00:01:09,262 --> 00:01:12,090
If she's on the tv, she must be telling the truth.

12
00:01:12,514 --> 00:01:14,205
But her credit cards were missing.

13
00:01:14,402 --> 00:01:18,136
Doesn't that seem like... I don't know, a clue?

14
00:01:19,117 --> 00:01:21,621
You don't jump off a bridge with your platinum card.

15
00:01:21,734 --> 00:01:23,591
- Logan, I--
- I know my mother!

16
00:01:24,529 --> 00:01:25,383
Okay...

17
00:01:27,318 --> 00:01:29,106
I heard she left a note.

18
00:01:29,316 --> 00:01:31,621
Well, yeah, she wants people to think she's dead.

19
00:01:32,797 --> 00:01:36,929
But if she was going to really do the deed, it would be chardonnay and sleeping pills.

20
00:01:37,524 --> 00:01:41,722
You know, she wouldn't risk being found bug-eyed and bloated in some shrimp net.

21
00:01:42,997 --> 00:01:44,538
I'll see what I can find out.

22
00:01:45,941 --> 00:01:46,929
You know what...

23
00:01:49,352 --> 00:01:52,341
I just need to know she's okay.

24
00:01:57,025 --> 00:01:59,505
Scholars! Thinkers!

25
00:02:00,269 --> 00:02:01,706
Learned charges!

26
00:02:03,436 --> 00:02:04,685
You asked for it.

27
00:02:05,099 --> 00:02:05,909
You got it.

28
00:02:06,620 --> 00:02:10,133
World history review, roundup and death match.

29
00:02:11,223 --> 00:02:12,662
Who will reign supreme?

30
00:02:13,093 --> 00:02:17,766
Will it be the age of enlightenment rock stars?!

31
00:02:19,174 --> 00:02:24,454
Or will it be the children of the industrial revolution?!

32
00:02:26,769 --> 00:02:29,051
Blood is in the air.

33
00:02:29,585 --> 00:02:32,175
Blood! Round one!

34
00:02:32,661 --> 00:02:34,541
Let's take a look at the board!

35
00:02:36,517 --> 00:02:42,308
The question is: what are five leading causes of the fall of the roman empire?

36
00:02:42,629 --> 00:02:45,297
Team captain Corazon Soliman, your answer?

37
00:02:45,379 --> 00:02:47,658
The huns kicked their ass.

38
00:02:49,021 --> 00:02:52,620
The correct answer was invading germanic hordes.

39
00:02:53,612 --> 00:02:54,652
Judges?

40
00:02:55,723 --> 00:02:59,204
Judges award the point! Children of the industrial revolution,

41
00:02:59,286 --> 00:03:01,430
you control the board!

42
00:03:03,484 --> 00:03:04,795
You know the rules.

43
00:03:05,527 --> 00:03:07,984
I can call on any team member.

44
00:03:08,926 --> 00:03:12,638
Who will be the weakest link?

45
00:03:14,789 --> 00:03:17,836
Wallace Fennel, show me what you got.

46
00:03:18,087 --> 00:03:19,473
All right, Mr. Rooks.

47
00:03:19,822 --> 00:03:22,039
They relied too much on slave labor.

48
00:03:22,223 --> 00:03:24,871
Can I see "slave labor"?!

49
00:03:28,767 --> 00:03:29,991
Two more answers.

50
00:03:31,563 --> 00:03:37,784
Uh-oh. I see someone hiding back there, trying to disappear completely.

51
00:03:38,428 --> 00:03:40,092
Carrie bishop...

52
00:03:40,318 --> 00:03:42,545
sock it to me, baby!

53
00:03:43,807 --> 00:03:46,150
The answer is, I'm not pregnant.

54
00:03:46,218 --> 00:03:50,072
So you can quit dodging my calls, and you can keep your money to "take care of it."

55
00:03:50,236 --> 00:03:53,226
And while we're at it, here's your key back.

56
00:03:53,318 --> 00:03:55,059
I won't be needing it anymore.

57
00:04:33,970 --> 00:04:34,938
Are you okay?

58
00:04:35,715 --> 00:04:37,518
Oh, been better.

59
00:04:42,269 --> 00:04:43,857
She's making it up, you know.

60
00:04:44,768 --> 00:04:49,760
I never touched that girl. I've never seen her outside of class.

61
00:04:49,903 --> 00:04:50,753
I know.

62
00:04:51,372 --> 00:04:52,970
Yeah, but it's not going to matter.

63
00:04:53,686 --> 00:04:58,197
Class has been out less than a minute and I would guess that...

64
00:04:58,552 --> 00:05:01,121
everyone in this school has heard by now.

65
00:05:02,815 --> 00:05:04,582
That's probably a good guess.

66
00:05:04,972 --> 00:05:06,917
This is all I ever wanted to do.

67
00:05:09,645 --> 00:05:12,867
- And it's over.
- Not if I can help it.

68
00:05:21,468 --> 00:05:27,925
Young teacher, the subject of schoolgirl fantasy.

69
00:05:28,069 --> 00:05:34,376
She wants him so badly knows what she wants to be.

70
00:05:34,533 --> 00:05:37,837
Temptation, frustration,

71
00:05:37,944 --> 00:05:41,410
so bad it makes him cry.

72
00:05:41,483 --> 00:05:44,616
Her bus stop, she's waiting;

73
00:05:44,769 --> 00:05:47,604
his car is warm and dry...

74
00:05:47,741 --> 00:05:49,239
That's rough, man.

75
00:05:50,374 --> 00:05:52,265
Don't look to me for sympathy.

76
00:05:52,834 --> 00:05:57,860
Carrie has had a long and storied reign as the gossip queen of Neptune High.

77
00:05:58,286 --> 00:05:59,480
You get a crown with that?

78
00:06:00,898 --> 00:06:02,270
Do something for me?

79
00:06:02,971 --> 00:06:03,888
Let me guess:

80
00:06:04,425 --> 00:06:06,059
borrow her permanent file?

81
00:06:06,182 --> 00:06:09,023
I remember when you were new and eager to please.

82
00:06:09,310 --> 00:06:10,332
Good times.

83
00:06:11,875 --> 00:06:12,541
Hey!

84
00:06:15,013 --> 00:06:16,824
Can I ask you kind of a weird favor?

85
00:06:17,184 --> 00:06:18,301
Depends how weird.

86
00:06:18,887 --> 00:06:22,801
Our family physician just retired to Death Valley... literally.

87
00:06:22,872 --> 00:06:24,819
I know it sounds like a metaphor, but it's not.

88
00:06:25,156 --> 00:06:27,921
Anyway, we need a new general practitioner.

89
00:06:28,254 --> 00:06:32,140
- Can I get the name of yours?
- Sure. Dr. Al Levine. He's in the book.

90
00:06:32,222 --> 00:06:33,742
-  Thanks.
- Yeah, no problem.

91
00:06:33,810 --> 00:06:35,949
He's kind of expensive, though.

92
00:06:36,041 --> 00:06:37,285
We've got insurance.

93
00:06:41,500 --> 00:06:43,071
Al Levine -- got it.

94
00:06:43,214 --> 00:06:46,636
It's time to find out what this mystery illness is you're suffering from.

95
00:06:52,684 --> 00:06:53,681
Carrie's file.

96
00:06:54,479 --> 00:06:58,846
If you are caught with this, I will disavow any knowledge of you or your mission.

97
00:06:59,221 --> 00:07:00,269
You'll be on your own.

98
00:07:00,356 --> 00:07:01,141
Don't worry.

99
00:07:01,371 --> 00:07:03,777
I've got a cyanide capsule in a false tooth.

100
00:07:04,074 --> 00:07:06,085
If  I'm caught, I'll do the honorable thing.

101
00:07:09,001 --> 00:07:10,931
It's been a privilege knowing you, Mars.

102
00:07:17,668 --> 00:07:20,817
Well, well, well, Carrie. I'm not sure this is the--

103
00:07:20,883 --> 00:07:21,829
It's a good read?

104
00:07:24,959 --> 00:07:25,864
Any news?

105
00:07:26,454 --> 00:07:29,581
I put notices on your mom's credit cards and on her ATM card.

106
00:07:29,648 --> 00:07:30,364
Meaning what?

107
00:07:30,443 --> 00:07:33,283
Meaning a friend of my father's who works at your family bank

108
00:07:33,336 --> 00:07:35,992
will text-message me if any of the cards are used.

109
00:07:36,193 --> 00:07:39,464
And you know that eyewitness that's been clogging up the airwaves?

110
00:07:39,555 --> 00:07:41,415
Yeah.  Opportunistic hag.

111
00:07:41,485 --> 00:07:42,663
That's the one.

112
00:07:42,901 --> 00:07:45,813
Well, she's giving a statement at the Sheriff's Department tomorrow.

113
00:07:46,038 --> 00:07:48,137
I'll drop by, see if she's up for a chat.

114
00:07:48,234 --> 00:07:49,212
Well, I'll go with you.

115
00:07:49,566 --> 00:07:54,517
Actually, despite popular opinion, you really can't *beat* the truth out of someone.

116
00:07:58,107 --> 00:07:59,155
Listen, I'm going.

117
00:07:59,544 --> 00:08:00,302
You're not.

118
00:08:01,819 --> 00:08:03,246
What are you going to stop me with?

119
00:08:03,922 --> 00:08:07,496
Force of will, strength of character, tenacity, karate chop...

120
00:08:07,572 --> 00:08:10,998
I  will know if she's lying, okay. You won't.

121
00:08:12,704 --> 00:08:14,367
Fine. I've got a plan.

122
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:15,878
Yeah, I'm sure you do.

123
00:08:16,355 --> 00:08:18,229
Hey, Carrie, wait up!

124
00:08:18,479 --> 00:08:21,734
Why? Did you want the chance to tell me how much you admired me for my brave stand?

125
00:08:21,821 --> 00:08:24,857
I want to give you a chance to recant before I prove you're lying.

126
00:08:24,976 --> 00:08:26,348
Why do you even care?

127
00:08:26,450 --> 00:08:29,401
There aren't many great teachers. Mr. Rooks is one of them.

128
00:08:29,462 --> 00:08:32,903
Yeah, if you can get past the part where he seduces his students.

129
00:08:32,980 --> 00:08:36,646
Hey, Carrie, this is me: Veronica. I know you.

130
00:08:37,059 --> 00:08:38,451
You're so naive.

131
00:08:39,379 --> 00:08:41,386
Yeah, that's me... naive.

132
00:08:41,726 --> 00:08:45,391
Mr. Rooks called your parents in for a parent-teacher conference last September.

133
00:08:45,702 --> 00:08:48,975
Hardly seems like something an illicit boyfriend would do.

134
00:08:49,149 --> 00:08:50,234
Believe what you want.

135
00:08:50,387 --> 00:08:53,547
Never cared what you thought of me before, no reason to start now.

136
00:09:02,297 --> 00:09:03,116
Hey, sweetie.

137
00:09:03,443 --> 00:09:04,072
Hey.

138
00:09:04,196 --> 00:09:07,299
Hey, you know a teacher named Chuck Rooks? Teaches history?

139
00:09:07,452 --> 00:09:08,809
Yeah, I'm in his class.

140
00:09:08,921 --> 00:09:12,394
Oh, good, good. I want you to find out whatever you can about him.

141
00:09:12,481 --> 00:09:13,172
Why?

142
00:09:13,341 --> 00:09:16,990
Well, the parents of a girl named Carrie Bishop just hired us to investigate.

143
00:09:17,068 --> 00:09:20,560
Apparently,  Carrie filed a sexual-harassment claim against him this afternoon.

144
00:09:20,632 --> 00:09:21,690
They want him fired.

145
00:09:23,884 --> 00:09:24,745
What's wrong?

146
00:09:34,612 --> 00:09:36,556
Calm down. What are you so upset about?

147
00:09:36,645 --> 00:09:41,130
Mr. Rooks is an amazing teacher; one of the few good teachers at Neptune High.

148
00:09:41,201 --> 00:09:43,783
And you're just going to join the witch-hunt to get him fired?

149
00:09:43,858 --> 00:09:48,002
I'm just running a background check. I'm not organizing a stoning in the town square.

150
00:09:48,064 --> 00:09:51,770
For the record, I can't help you. I've already volunteered to work with him.

151
00:09:51,835 --> 00:09:54,767
You know how I dread going to that school every day?

152
00:09:54,841 --> 00:09:57,704
His class is one of the few things that I look forward to.

153
00:09:57,785 --> 00:09:59,823
Well, I'm sorry. This is my business, honey.

154
00:10:00,150 --> 00:10:03,079
It's what I do. Besides, the girl deserves to be heard.

155
00:10:03,141 --> 00:10:04,595
No,  actually, she doesn't.

156
00:10:04,661 --> 00:10:07,002
She's a liar and a gossip and a manipulator.

157
00:10:07,068 --> 00:10:09,137
- What makes you think that?
- I just do.

158
00:10:10,207 --> 00:10:13,110
Well, I can't drop a case based on a feeling you have. I'm sorry.

159
00:10:14,328 --> 00:10:15,151
Fine.

160
00:10:15,685 --> 00:10:17,507
You can answer your own phone.

161
00:10:21,101 --> 00:10:23,949
- I'm surprised I lasted as long as I did.
- I know.

162
00:10:24,062 --> 00:10:27,865
I mean, of all of the girls in the school Duncan could have gone out with... Veronica Mars?

163
00:10:28,530 --> 00:10:30,452
I mean, how insane is that?

164
00:10:30,568 --> 00:10:32,908
- He's out of his mind.
- That's for sure.

165
00:10:33,365 --> 00:10:35,587
She really got her claws into him.

166
00:10:35,680 --> 00:10:37,467
You know, I actually sort of feel sorry for the guy.

167
00:10:37,573 --> 00:10:39,786
You know all she's after is his money.

168
00:10:39,862 --> 00:10:42,745
No, I mean, he's literally crazy. Like looney-bin crazy.

169
00:10:42,817 --> 00:10:43,860
What are you talking about?

170
00:10:43,942 --> 00:10:46,816
You know how Brian's brother is a resident at the hospital?

171
00:10:46,954 --> 00:10:51,239
Brian told Ashley that last week, Duncan was brought in kicking and screaming,

172
00:10:51,291 --> 00:10:53,861
foaming at the mouth, calling out Veronica's name.

173
00:10:53,942 --> 00:10:56,354
It took like three orderlies to get him in a straight jacket.

174
00:10:56,549 --> 00:10:57,471
Come on!

175
00:10:57,675 --> 00:10:58,797
That's what I heard.

176
00:11:05,528 --> 00:11:09,149
Carrie Bishop and Susan Knight. Go figure.

177
00:11:17,506 --> 00:11:18,882
We should do this more often.

178
00:11:21,044 --> 00:11:22,185
Thank you, detective.

179
00:11:24,963 --> 00:11:25,973
That's her.

180
00:11:28,072 --> 00:11:30,991
Down, boy. Relax, I've got it covered.

181
00:11:32,488 --> 00:11:33,756
White trash walking.

182
00:11:36,250 --> 00:11:37,862
I know, gadgets and all.

183
00:11:40,894 --> 00:11:43,966
Ms. Stanton. Cliff McCormack from "Weekly World News."

184
00:11:44,017 --> 00:11:46,490
My boss is very interested in your story.

185
00:11:46,562 --> 00:11:49,665
Are we talking an exclusive, or what? 'Cause I'm getting lots of offers.

186
00:11:49,741 --> 00:11:51,266
Definitely an exclusive.

187
00:11:51,364 --> 00:11:52,491
Well, what's the offer?

188
00:11:52,582 --> 00:11:58,210
It depends on what you've got. Did she look intoxicated, drugged up, bruised?

189
00:11:58,357 --> 00:12:00,083
If you'd like, sure.

190
00:12:00,236 --> 00:12:04,573
So, what?! You couldn't get on "Springer" this week, so you make lies up about my mom?

191
00:12:04,655 --> 00:12:08,148
You know, I am sure the trailer payments must be high.

192
00:12:08,233 --> 00:12:12,284
- And what with the high price of spam these days--
- Okay, enough.

193
00:12:14,276 --> 00:12:16,611
Thanks, Cliff. You're the best.

194
00:12:16,719 --> 00:12:19,765
If by "best" you mean "willing." You owe me one, kid.

195
00:12:24,517 --> 00:12:25,320
Hey.

196
00:12:26,579 --> 00:12:27,215
Hi.

197
00:12:29,468 --> 00:12:33,666
I have to take care of something. I'll be like two seconds. Stay calm.

198
00:12:33,994 --> 00:12:36,835
Finding out what that woman is about is good news.

199
00:12:41,914 --> 00:12:42,816
Deputy...

200
00:12:43,681 --> 00:12:44,760
What do you want, Veronica?

201
00:12:44,833 --> 00:12:46,062
A chance to explain.

202
00:12:46,368 --> 00:12:48,242
What's to explain? You used me. I get it.

203
00:12:48,621 --> 00:12:50,480
Lilly Kane was my best friend.

204
00:12:51,078 --> 00:12:53,648
Listen, I know all about your dad and the murder investigation--

205
00:12:53,736 --> 00:12:56,787
No, you don't. You know the story that everyone else knows.

206
00:12:56,864 --> 00:12:58,462
A guy confessed. He said he did it.

207
00:13:00,347 --> 00:13:03,992
Did you know that the head of security at Kane Software was the one

208
00:13:04,027 --> 00:13:06,224
that made the tip call that got Abel Koontz arrested?

209
00:13:06,678 --> 00:13:10,699
Did you know that your own crime-scene photos make it impossible for Abel

210
00:13:10,761 --> 00:13:14,724
to have left the Kane house with a pair of Lilly's shoes that they found on his houseboat?

211
00:13:14,806 --> 00:13:18,732
Did you know there's a traffic ticket that proves that Lilly's time of death is three hours off?

212
00:13:18,819 --> 00:13:20,060
How do you know all this?

213
00:13:20,155 --> 00:13:24,707
I know all of this because I have done everything I could to get to the truth...

214
00:13:25,127 --> 00:13:29,019
including using you. And I'm really sorry about that.

215
00:13:29,085 --> 00:13:32,422
But I used you, then fell for you, not the other way around.

216
00:13:33,438 --> 00:13:34,513
You fell for me?

217
00:13:48,047 --> 00:13:48,936
Hello?

218
00:13:55,674 --> 00:13:57,348
Hey, Veronica...

219
00:13:58,894 --> 00:14:02,141
Uh, come on in. Meet my daughter, Olivia.

220
00:14:09,638 --> 00:14:10,870
Hi, Olivia.

221
00:14:11,977 --> 00:14:14,274
I'm one of your dad's students, Veronica.

222
00:14:14,869 --> 00:14:16,758
She must be going through a shy phase.

223
00:14:16,864 --> 00:14:19,211
No, not really. She's usually pretty gregarious.

224
00:14:19,313 --> 00:14:21,325
She must really dislike you.

225
00:14:21,888 --> 00:14:23,199
There's a club she can join.

226
00:14:23,388 --> 00:14:28,315
Sweetie, why don't you go finish your coloring. I'll come in and join you, okay?

227
00:14:33,242 --> 00:14:34,100
There you go.

228
00:14:37,464 --> 00:14:38,508
She's adorable.

229
00:14:38,657 --> 00:14:42,174
Well, if you get past her megalomania and reactionary politics...

230
00:14:43,034 --> 00:14:46,408
I get her on the weekends. My ex-wife has her during the week.

231
00:14:46,895 --> 00:14:48,703
I'm sorry to intrude on your weekend.

232
00:14:48,809 --> 00:14:50,534
Oh, no problem. What's on your mind?

233
00:14:51,185 --> 00:14:55,465
A few months ago, you called a parent-teacher conference with Carrie's parents?

234
00:14:55,666 --> 00:14:58,174
- How would you know that?
- I can't reveal my sources.

235
00:14:58,251 --> 00:15:03,724
Uh... Veronica, I appreciate your offer of help. It's very generous.

236
00:15:03,796 --> 00:15:06,090
But I really think this is an adult matter.

237
00:15:06,182 --> 00:15:10,237
Right now, Carrie's parents have a private investigator running a background check on you.

238
00:15:10,304 --> 00:15:11,577
There's going to be a hearing.

239
00:15:11,661 --> 00:15:15,321
If the school board believes Carrie's allegations, you'll never teach again.

240
00:15:15,403 --> 00:15:19,376
Her parents came to see me about her grades. I gave her a "C" on her midterm paper.

241
00:15:19,812 --> 00:15:24,583
She thought it was unfair that the black mark on her transcript would keep her out of Cornell.

242
00:15:24,645 --> 00:15:28,060
Do you suppose that's why she's after you -- spoiling her Ivy League dreams?

243
00:15:28,121 --> 00:15:29,345
Honestly, I couldn't tell you.

244
00:15:29,458 --> 00:15:31,798
Do you have anyone representing you at the school board hearing?

245
00:15:31,956 --> 00:15:33,415
Mmm,  faculty union rep.

246
00:15:33,552 --> 00:15:34,429
Who's that?

247
00:15:35,136 --> 00:15:36,482
You're looking at him.

248
00:15:43,735 --> 00:15:44,823
Any messages?

249
00:15:51,557 --> 00:15:54,704
Veronica... I know you admire this guy,

250
00:15:54,782 --> 00:15:58,124
and I encourage you to stand up for your convictions when you think you're right.

251
00:15:58,524 --> 00:16:02,206
But Rooks is a bad egg and I don't want you getting hurt when the whole story comes out.

252
00:16:02,293 --> 00:16:03,792
I'm sorry. I believe him.

253
00:16:03,998 --> 00:16:06,717
Carrie kept a very detailed diary of her affair with him.

254
00:16:06,798 --> 00:16:08,545
It's full of times and dates.

255
00:16:08,723 --> 00:16:13,266
She recorded the very date of a weekend she spent in a hotel with him when her parents were out of town.

256
00:16:14,206 --> 00:16:17,397
She writes about him taking her to a fancy restaurant in San Diego

257
00:16:17,452 --> 00:16:21,206
after  she won the District Extemporaneous Speaking Competition.

258
00:16:21,288 --> 00:16:23,659
So? That doesn't prove anything.

259
00:16:23,802 --> 00:16:27,678
I could write down that I met Kid Rock every weekend at the Hedonism Lodge

260
00:16:27,755 --> 00:16:30,873
for sensual massage and smoothies, but that doesn't make it true!

261
00:16:30,935 --> 00:16:34,123
I did a cross check of Rooks' credit card history.

262
00:16:36,019 --> 00:16:38,312
The charges match Carrie's diary.

263
00:16:39,076 --> 00:16:40,377
She could have followed him.

264
00:16:40,468 --> 00:16:42,163
Sweetie, it's very specific.

265
00:16:44,251 --> 00:16:46,054
And I don't want you seeing Kid Rock.

266
00:16:54,808 --> 00:16:55,901
Dr. Levine's office.

267
00:16:56,091 --> 00:17:00,729
Hi, this is Veronica Mars. I was wondering if I could get in to see the doctor sometime this week?

268
00:17:01,368 --> 00:17:02,937
End of the day would be best.

269
00:17:03,106 --> 00:17:05,262
I have band practice after school.

270
00:17:05,368 --> 00:17:08,923
- How's 5:00?
- 5:00 is great. Thanks.

271
00:17:10,919 --> 00:17:15,466
I'm no doctor,but I'm pretty sure Penicillin will clear that problem right up.

272
00:17:15,547 --> 00:17:17,206
Can't say I was expecting you.

273
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,023
Yeah.  Yeah, I usually avoid buildings with stained glass.

274
00:17:22,552 --> 00:17:24,906
That's  why you haven't come to visit.

275
00:17:26,766 --> 00:17:31,665
There's a woman who saw my mom get out of her car and get in a van with a mysterious stranger.

276
00:17:31,758 --> 00:17:36,985
There's also a jungle tribe that worships Donald Trump's hair. It's a tabloid.

277
00:17:37,056 --> 00:17:39,924
So the girl with the pig arm can't really bowl?

278
00:17:41,111 --> 00:17:43,012
I just don't want you to get your hopes up.

279
00:17:43,113 --> 00:17:45,192
I'm not paying you to worry about my hopes.

280
00:17:45,408 --> 00:17:47,292
I'm paying you to follow leads.

281
00:17:47,402 --> 00:17:48,938
I wasn't aware you were paying me.

282
00:17:49,018 --> 00:17:53,066
This isn't a favor, it's a job, you know. I mean, we're not exchanging friendship bracelets.

283
00:17:53,157 --> 00:17:54,270
I'll stop braiding.

284
00:17:54,358 --> 00:17:58,826
The woman said my mom was laughing and having fun.

285
00:18:00,301 --> 00:18:02,821
And so do whatever it is you do and track her down.

286
00:18:03,001 --> 00:18:05,534
Sondra Bolan of Sunset Springs.

287
00:18:05,864 --> 00:18:07,840
How am I going to find her?

288
00:18:12,349 --> 00:18:16,270
In Sunset Springs. Sondra Bolan.

289
00:18:16,982 --> 00:18:18,359
I'll put it on your bill.

290
00:18:19,625 --> 00:18:23,356
Hi, Sondra. This is Veronica of "The National Instigator."

291
00:18:23,449 --> 00:18:26,844
I had a few follow-up questions on your Lynn Echolls story.

292
00:18:27,996 --> 00:18:30,387
Actually, in person is a lot better.

293
00:18:31,539 --> 00:18:35,132
No, Tuesday night's no good -- newspaper work night.

294
00:18:35,215 --> 00:18:36,091
What are you doing?

295
00:18:36,249 --> 00:18:38,472
Any chance you're available right now?

296
00:18:40,961 --> 00:18:44,601
So I'm not sure how much you were paid for the last interview, but--

297
00:18:44,687 --> 00:18:48,317
Oh, I wasn't paid. I thought people should know the truth

298
00:18:48,522 --> 00:18:51,906
with that woman lying on every talk show.

299
00:18:52,531 --> 00:18:54,559
So is there anything else you remember?

300
00:18:54,871 --> 00:18:58,654
The model of the van? Maybe a piece of the license plate?

301
00:18:58,757 --> 00:19:01,664
Honestly, I was just so excited to see Lynn.

302
00:19:01,778 --> 00:19:04,128
I thought they were filming a movie or something.

303
00:19:06,305 --> 00:19:08,291
Have you ever seen Lynn Echolls before?

304
00:19:08,435 --> 00:19:11,618
Once. The premiere of "Delta Blue Bombers."

305
00:19:11,768 --> 00:19:13,882
She was on the red carpet with Aaron.

306
00:19:14,144 --> 00:19:16,446
I must have seen that movie a hundred times.

307
00:19:16,596 --> 00:19:17,886
A hundred times?

308
00:19:17,984 --> 00:19:19,063
I can check if you want.

309
00:19:24,731 --> 00:19:27,594
So the van... in the interview, you said the van was blue?

310
00:19:27,686 --> 00:19:31,919
It was the van from "The Pursuit of Happiness." The exact van.

311
00:19:32,002 --> 00:19:33,221
You mean the exact model?

312
00:19:33,302 --> 00:19:36,129
No, the actual van from the movie.

313
00:19:36,642 --> 00:19:39,955
Lynn and Aaron met on the set of "The Pursuit of Happiness," you know.

314
00:19:40,311 --> 00:19:41,970
They were so young then.

315
00:19:42,779 --> 00:19:46,834
I don't know why anyone could ever think she'd kill herself.

316
00:19:47,274 --> 00:19:49,603
She is the luckiest woman in the world.

317
00:19:49,718 --> 00:19:50,551
Excuse me.

318
00:19:56,905 --> 00:19:58,615
I would have done the same thing.

319
00:19:58,821 --> 00:19:59,624
Done what?

320
00:19:59,869 --> 00:20:03,981
If it was my mother, I would have let myself believe that story.

321
00:20:07,644 --> 00:20:09,337
Hey, manners, Opie!

322
00:20:10,387 --> 00:20:11,984
What, did he lose a puka shell?

323
00:20:12,444 --> 00:20:13,192
No...

324
00:20:14,785 --> 00:20:18,425
just the last ounce of hope that his mother was still alive.

325
00:20:27,032 --> 00:20:29,315
Is that lasagna I smell?

326
00:20:29,489 --> 00:20:31,205
Keith  Mars' secret recipe.

327
00:20:31,845 --> 00:20:34,205
You  double the cheese. Your secret is out.

328
00:20:35,798 --> 00:20:37,139
You're making salad?

329
00:20:38,854 --> 00:20:40,805
I know pity cooking when I see it.

330
00:20:41,707 --> 00:20:43,267
There must be more bad news.

331
00:20:44,829 --> 00:20:47,262
Maybe we should wait 'til after dinner, huh?

332
00:20:47,562 --> 00:20:50,861
Spill it. I promise I won't let it ruin my appetite.

333
00:20:51,994 --> 00:20:55,529
Rooks was fired from his last job at a private school.

334
00:20:56,601 --> 00:21:01,004
His file is sealed, but the complaint came from the parents of two girls.

335
00:21:04,890 --> 00:21:07,904
- I want to see Carrie's journal.
- You know I can't let you.

336
00:21:11,857 --> 00:21:13,302
There better be dessert.

337
00:21:15,015 --> 00:21:19,902
If I'm going to save Mr. Rooks' job, I have to get my hands on this supposed diary.

338
00:21:27,398 --> 00:21:30,480
Unfortunately, dad's changed the combination.

339
00:21:30,900 --> 00:21:35,031
It's the rare individual who chooses meaningless numbers as a combination.

340
00:21:35,113 --> 00:21:36,184
He taught me that.

341
00:21:38,278 --> 00:21:42,101
Nine times out of ten, an individual will select numbers that mean something --

342
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,702
birthdays, anniversaries, addresses.

343
00:21:46,608 --> 00:21:49,091
Of course, dad is smarter than that.

344
00:21:49,982 --> 00:21:54,196
You wouldn't believe the number of people who keep the combination written down on a post-it,

345
00:21:54,354 --> 00:21:59,834
or tacked to a bulletin board, or scribbled on a birthday page of their page-a-day calendar.

346
00:22:00,141 --> 00:22:02,639
Somehow, I doubt dad's that careless.

347
00:22:05,726 --> 00:22:09,925
Then again, he'll be glad to know how much I've soaked up listening to him.

348
00:22:17,153 --> 00:22:18,987
And what do we have here?

349
00:22:35,815 --> 00:22:39,120
I suspect there's also a lesson to be learned here.

350
00:22:45,904 --> 00:22:48,340
Hey, honey. What have you been up to?

351
00:22:49,877 --> 00:22:52,580
Tell me where to put your "Father of the Year" trophy.

352
00:22:52,661 --> 00:22:54,465
'Cause there's some place I'd like to put it.

353
00:22:54,587 --> 00:22:57,193
Wow. Good thing I didn't go with a bear trap.

354
00:22:58,763 --> 00:23:00,270
This is not funny.

355
00:23:00,491 --> 00:23:03,502
I need to see that diary. She's lying. I know it.

356
00:23:03,573 --> 00:23:06,016
I can feel it with every fiber of my being.

357
00:23:06,076 --> 00:23:08,018
Honey, you don't have to get all blue in the face.

358
00:23:08,079 --> 00:23:09,257
You're patronizing me?

359
00:23:09,343 --> 00:23:11,489
To be fair, I am your patron.

360
00:23:11,591 --> 00:23:14,877
The Bishops are going to use your credit card research and that diary

361
00:23:14,939 --> 00:23:16,905
to prove the two of them were together.

362
00:23:17,074 --> 00:23:20,428
Just give me the dates and times -- I don't have to read the diary.

363
00:23:20,494 --> 00:23:23,040
Do you want to be responsible for taking a good man down?

364
00:23:23,126 --> 00:23:25,076
Destroying his reputation?

365
00:23:25,421 --> 00:23:27,167
Can you possibly relate?

366
00:23:29,041 --> 00:23:30,985
Dates and times -- that's it.

367
00:23:41,908 --> 00:23:44,896
If you're looking for my trophy, it's back by auto shop.

368
00:23:45,378 --> 00:23:48,670
Lube job? Or can you medal in stealing hubcaps?

369
00:23:48,782 --> 00:23:51,548
Is this 1970? Rims, baby.

370
00:23:51,631 --> 00:23:53,267
So you got a trophy for a rim job?

371
00:23:54,082 --> 00:23:56,744
Forget it. I got some information for you.

372
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,011
Finally, a Deep Throat to call my own.

373
00:24:00,118 --> 00:24:03,902
I'm not going to touch that one. Uh, I hear this freshman kid's been shooting his mouth off

374
00:24:03,969 --> 00:24:07,440
that he's got proof that Lynn Echolls jumped and he's gonna make millions.

375
00:24:07,548 --> 00:24:08,331
Who's the kid?

376
00:24:08,525 --> 00:24:09,745
Do you want me to find out?

377
00:24:09,866 --> 00:24:11,193
Do you even have to ask?

378
00:24:13,861 --> 00:24:15,898
- Can I ask you something?
- Shoot.

379
00:24:16,890 --> 00:24:19,011
Why were you fired from your last job?

380
00:24:19,758 --> 00:24:22,053
- How on earth do you know--
- I just do.

381
00:24:22,232 --> 00:24:26,787
Wow. Maybe I should give more credence to the teacher's lounge gossip.

382
00:24:27,380 --> 00:24:28,661
Colleagues said you were...

383
00:24:30,544 --> 00:24:32,051
unique...

384
00:24:33,506 --> 00:24:34,423
gifted...

385
00:24:37,404 --> 00:24:38,244
unsettling.

386
00:24:38,352 --> 00:24:41,409
I was hoping for delightful, but what can you do.

387
00:24:43,541 --> 00:24:44,432
So...

388
00:24:45,508 --> 00:24:47,269
My firing... yeah.

389
00:24:48,691 --> 00:24:51,395
It was an all-girls school on the conservative side.

390
00:24:52,060 --> 00:24:57,708
I had the temerity to suggest U.S. Imperialism wasn't necessarily a good thing.

391
00:24:58,267 --> 00:25:04,088
They thought I was trying to turn their daughters into little berét-wearing, clove-smoking Bolsheviks.

392
00:25:04,247 --> 00:25:05,865
- Were you?
- Nyet!

393
00:25:06,764 --> 00:25:07,509
That's it?

394
00:25:07,672 --> 00:25:13,439
Well, that, and I was driving an '89 Harley. Didn't really endear me to the administration.

395
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:17,196
Thanks, Mr. Rooks.

396
00:25:18,015 --> 00:25:20,191
Do svidaniya, Veronica.

397
00:25:23,828 --> 00:25:27,759
I'm giving you another chance. Drop the complaint against Mr. Rooks.

398
00:25:27,863 --> 00:25:30,492
Yeah. I remember when I was in love with him, too.

399
00:25:30,995 --> 00:25:34,108
Did you ever consider that I just really dislike you?

400
00:25:34,179 --> 00:25:37,205
Wow, does that mean you won't be signing my yearbook?

401
00:25:37,298 --> 00:25:40,300
You're still in Mr. Rooks' class. You must not be too shook up.

402
00:25:40,444 --> 00:25:42,771
I need his class to graduate.

403
00:25:42,923 --> 00:25:45,172
And he'll be the one leaving... soon.

404
00:25:45,343 --> 00:25:48,624
All this because he gave you a "C" on your paper? You'd destroy him?

405
00:25:48,721 --> 00:25:49,530
Destroy him?

406
00:25:49,887 --> 00:25:54,306
From where I stand, he's become more popular than ever. I'm the bitch that everyone hates.

407
00:25:54,474 --> 00:25:56,646
Are you interested in details, Veronica?

408
00:25:56,779 --> 00:25:58,745
Can I help enrich your fantasy life?

409
00:25:58,990 --> 00:26:01,177
He says "baby" a lot when he touches you.

410
00:26:01,346 --> 00:26:03,291
His sheets are black, silk.

411
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,578
His mood music is side two of the Rolling Stones' "Tattoo You."

412
00:26:06,861 --> 00:26:10,127
He'll tear up as he tells you the story of his ex-wife leaving him.

413
00:26:10,388 --> 00:26:12,026
You'll turn to jelly.

414
00:26:12,369 --> 00:26:15,452
Yeah, I have that same "Sweet Valley High" book.

415
00:26:15,641 --> 00:26:19,308
You said you spent the night in a hotel with Mr. Rooks on April 23,

416
00:26:19,364 --> 00:26:21,247
but there's a problem with that story, isn't there?

417
00:26:21,335 --> 00:26:23,859
Why don't you tell me? It's obvious you're dying to.

418
00:26:24,976 --> 00:26:31,292
All right. The problem with that story is that you were at an overnight track meet in Sacramento that weekend.

419
00:26:31,615 --> 00:26:34,519
You were part of the winning 1,600-meter relay.

420
00:26:36,345 --> 00:26:38,155
People say you're fast.

421
00:26:48,454 --> 00:26:51,977
Sorry to keep you waiting. I'm always busy at the end of the day.

422
00:26:52,063 --> 00:26:56,325
Those sniffles -- probably just light allergies, not uncommon.

423
00:26:56,421 --> 00:26:57,846
So I can put my shirt back on?

424
00:26:57,966 --> 00:26:59,663
Uh, sure. Yes, of course.

425
00:27:04,116 --> 00:27:08,684
One problem with doctors, besides their fetish for making you wait half-naked in cold rooms,

426
00:27:08,761 --> 00:27:12,909
is they won't just let you ransack their files, even if you ask real nice.

427
00:27:13,573 --> 00:27:19,052
So someone like me has to resort to methods the insurance companies would probably not support.

428
00:27:21,279 --> 00:27:22,524
- Good night, Nancy.
- Good night.

429
00:28:00,015 --> 00:28:03,905
Okay, yes, I am petite, and it does come in handy every now and then.

430
00:28:32,411 --> 00:28:34,249
I'm generally pretty cool with coincidence,

431
00:28:34,499 --> 00:28:37,837
but when Abel Koontz turns out to share a doctor with the Kanes,

432
00:28:38,187 --> 00:28:42,176
that's too much for me to ignore, even if it means getting caught.

433
00:28:42,898 --> 00:28:43,727
Wha--?

434
00:28:44,433 --> 00:28:48,341
Is the doctor here? 'Cause I've been sitting for like an hour.

435
00:28:50,158 --> 00:28:53,199
This experience has ruined me.

436
00:28:55,063 --> 00:28:56,691
I mean, the stories in the newspaper.

437
00:28:56,881 --> 00:29:03,014
My peers in the faculty lounge stop talking when I enter.

438
00:29:03,163 --> 00:29:08,236
Mr. Rooks, do you have any guess why Miss Bishop would file this grievance?

439
00:29:10,889 --> 00:29:15,160
Carrie is a solid "B" student in my class.

440
00:29:15,804 --> 00:29:18,202
She made it very clear she needed an "A"...

441
00:29:21,984 --> 00:29:25,056
but the work just didn't merit it.

442
00:29:26,188 --> 00:29:28,210
My dad left my mom last year,

443
00:29:28,496 --> 00:29:31,585
and I was pretty lost.

444
00:29:33,115 --> 00:29:36,310
Mr. Rooks started giving me rides home from our mock U.N. Meetings,

445
00:29:36,956 --> 00:29:39,613
and we'd just talk. He said that we had a lot in common,

446
00:29:39,684 --> 00:29:43,878
that we'd both been abandoned by people we thought loved us because of his wife.

447
00:29:45,646 --> 00:29:47,989
At first we just kissed,

448
00:29:48,895 --> 00:29:51,869
but... it went beyond that.

449
00:29:52,776 --> 00:29:55,546
When I told him I thought I might be pregnant, he just blew me off.

450
00:29:55,914 --> 00:29:59,095
When I saw him flirting with other girls, I just decided,

451
00:29:59,903 --> 00:30:01,567
"I guess this is what he does."

452
00:30:02,443 --> 00:30:04,563
And I couldn't let him get away with it again.

453
00:30:04,725 --> 00:30:06,990
These are very serious charges, Carrie.

454
00:30:07,799 --> 00:30:11,168
Is there any proof you can offer beyond your testimony?

455
00:30:15,268 --> 00:30:17,116
He sent me text messages all the time.

456
00:30:17,875 --> 00:30:21,735
April 9th: "Let's meet for tutoring. Clothing optional."

457
00:30:22,867 --> 00:30:26,318
April 14th: "I miss your scent. Call me."

458
00:30:27,690 --> 00:30:32,283
April 29th: "come to school without your underwear. You'll be rewarded."

459
00:30:41,427 --> 00:30:43,178
They're addressed to "S.K."

460
00:30:45,021 --> 00:30:46,844
He used to call me "Sweet Knees."

461
00:30:47,058 --> 00:30:49,106
He always wanted me to wear knee socks.

462
00:30:49,179 --> 00:30:53,966
I'm not sure we have proof that Mr. Rooks actually sent you these messages.

463
00:30:54,048 --> 00:30:55,543
Hit the call-back button there.

464
00:31:09,519 --> 00:31:12,148
Mr. Clemmons, can I borrow your cell for a minute?

465
00:31:12,601 --> 00:31:14,528
My car broke down in the parking lot.

466
00:31:26,868 --> 00:31:32,746
Mr. Clemmons, what can you tell us about your interaction with Mr. Rooks that might be relevant?

467
00:31:33,339 --> 00:31:35,367
Well, he's a very popular teacher.

468
00:31:35,465 --> 00:31:39,544
The student body has voted him "best teacher" three of the four years he's been with us.

469
00:31:39,616 --> 00:31:40,692
Thank you, Mr. Clemmons.

470
00:31:42,167 --> 00:31:45,080
Um, Mrs. Fuller, if I may?

471
00:31:49,545 --> 00:31:55,325
Could I ask you to get out your own cell phone and, uh, check the messages?

472
00:32:02,300 --> 00:32:05,559
Now check and see if you have messages.

473
00:32:05,653 --> 00:32:07,588
I have three new messages.

474
00:32:07,741 --> 00:32:09,271
Can you read them out loud?

475
00:32:09,666 --> 00:32:13,623
The first one says, "true pirates share their booty."

476
00:32:14,822 --> 00:32:17,873
The second, "I'll be your little spoon."

477
00:32:19,564 --> 00:32:23,397
And finally, "vice principals make the best lovers."

478
00:32:25,287 --> 00:32:27,053
Mind hitting redial?

479
00:32:35,988 --> 00:32:40,494
I think we have to conclude that either the two of you are having an affair...

480
00:32:42,490 --> 00:32:47,774
or that it's extremely easy to create false text messages on someone's cellphone.

481
00:32:57,687 --> 00:33:03,734
In a situation like we have here today, the burden of proof is on the accuser.

482
00:33:04,087 --> 00:33:10,344
We find no conclusive evidence to substantiate the claim that these alleged encounters ever happened.

483
00:33:11,685 --> 00:33:15,858
Mr. Rooks will continue on as a teacher at this school.

484
00:33:25,068 --> 00:33:27,034
You didn't have to come all the way over here.

485
00:33:27,117 --> 00:33:30,122
I know, but I felt really stupid getting out of there with your phone.

486
00:33:30,936 --> 00:33:31,524
Sorry.

487
00:33:31,618 --> 00:33:34,746
Well, I appreciate you hooking me up with password protection.

488
00:33:35,380 --> 00:33:36,409
That's what I do.

489
00:33:36,503 --> 00:33:39,503
Hey, you want some pizza? It just got delivered.

490
00:33:39,573 --> 00:33:42,406
They had a two-for-one deal. I'm swimming in it.

491
00:33:42,508 --> 00:33:47,295
Um... one slice. I have this newspaper work night thing.

492
00:33:51,206 --> 00:33:54,162
Nice. You must have a gay friend.

493
00:33:54,406 --> 00:33:59,287
No, I literally duplicated a page from the "Z Gallery" catalog.

494
00:33:59,398 --> 00:34:00,281
Something to drink?

495
00:34:00,510 --> 00:34:01,877
Whatever you're having.

496
00:34:02,265 --> 00:34:03,648
Diet anything is good.

497
00:34:03,926 --> 00:34:06,091
- Can I use your bathroom?
- Sure, down the hall.

498
00:34:21,706 --> 00:34:23,175
Is that Mick Jagger?

499
00:34:28,311 --> 00:34:33,262
I have to get back to the journalism room. Rain check on the pizza?

500
00:34:33,349 --> 00:34:34,266
Absolutely.

501
00:34:34,783 --> 00:34:35,581
See you tomorrow.

502
00:34:36,854 --> 00:34:42,488
Best way to stop wondering if your favorite teacher was trying to lure you between his black silk sheets?

503
00:34:42,554 --> 00:34:45,530
Research the mystery condition that's causing your ex-boyfriend

504
00:34:45,618 --> 00:34:48,864
and possible half brother to take Oxcarbazepine.

505
00:34:49,386 --> 00:34:53,477
Hmm... it's a drug used to treat type 4 epilepsy.

506
00:34:53,579 --> 00:34:57,951
Symptoms include hysterical, violent, emotional fits that can't be controlled

507
00:34:58,018 --> 00:35:01,828
and are often are accompanied by complete blackouts and loss of memory.

508
00:35:01,951 --> 00:35:02,764
Whatcha doing?

509
00:35:03,993 --> 00:35:05,616
Google-ing myself.

510
00:35:06,902 --> 00:35:08,365
Like I'm the first.

511
00:35:09,282 --> 00:35:11,273
Find out anything interesting?

512
00:35:11,674 --> 00:35:15,384
There's a Veronica Mars in Vermont who sells pinecone porcupines.

513
00:35:22,696 --> 00:35:24,755
Do you know where we keep last year's newspapers?

514
00:35:24,853 --> 00:35:27,033
In the supply cabinet. Why?

515
00:35:27,167 --> 00:35:31,344
I want to see who won last year's District Extemporaneous Speaking Competition.

516
00:35:32,875 --> 00:35:34,069
Okay...

517
00:35:35,596 --> 00:35:36,629
Why?

518
00:35:37,012 --> 00:35:39,435
I want to know if the winner had sweet knees.

519
00:35:42,777 --> 00:35:43,752
I give up.

520
00:35:53,609 --> 00:35:55,188
- What city?
- Neptune.

521
00:35:55,363 --> 00:35:57,621
I need a listing for the Knight family.

522
00:35:57,821 --> 00:35:59,596
- Ninth street?
- Is there more than one?

523
00:35:59,689 --> 00:36:00,733
No.

524
00:36:01,154 --> 00:36:02,495
Then that would be it.

525
00:36:02,586 --> 00:36:03,852
Please hold for your number.

526
00:36:17,305 --> 00:36:18,438
Veronica Mars?

527
00:36:18,825 --> 00:36:22,846
Carrie's story is true, isn't it? It just didn't happen to her.

528
00:36:23,718 --> 00:36:28,035
She copied your diary, and it was your cellphone she showed in court.

529
00:36:28,706 --> 00:36:32,904
You got together with Rooks the night you won the Extemporaneous Speaking Competition?

530
00:36:33,020 --> 00:36:35,249
S.K. was you, Susan Knight.

531
00:36:38,136 --> 00:36:39,574
My parents disowned me.

532
00:36:41,311 --> 00:36:43,160
I wouldn't tell them who the father is

533
00:36:43,932 --> 00:36:49,068
because I knew if I did, they would press charges for statutory rape, and I don't want that.

534
00:36:49,143 --> 00:36:52,308
There's something I'm not getting. Why would Carrie tell your story?

535
00:36:52,381 --> 00:36:54,342
Because she thought what he did was wrong.

536
00:36:55,099 --> 00:36:56,850
Do you know when I told Mr. Rooks I was pregnant,

537
00:36:56,911 --> 00:37:00,034
he gave me $500 and told me I should go take care of it?

538
00:37:00,107 --> 00:37:02,595
It made her crazy there were no consequences for what he did.

539
00:37:02,667 --> 00:37:05,032
Meanwhile, I had to run out of town in shame?

540
00:37:05,682 --> 00:37:07,525
Look, it made me crazy too, but...

541
00:37:09,507 --> 00:37:11,016
I can't come forward.

542
00:37:13,215 --> 00:37:14,883
I'm just not that brave.

543
00:37:14,986 --> 00:37:20,689
You have no idea. People have put her through hell, and she just took it.

544
00:37:20,827 --> 00:37:22,743
She said most people were supportive of her.

545
00:37:22,767 --> 00:37:23,896
They weren't.

546
00:37:25,032 --> 00:37:27,012
We weren't.

547
00:37:29,588 --> 00:37:31,743
Carrie just went to the mat for you.

548
00:37:32,292 --> 00:37:35,030
One phone call, and you can make it all worth it.

549
00:37:36,484 --> 00:37:40,677
I just happen to have the school board president's cellphone number.

550
00:37:51,614 --> 00:37:53,180
I went to see Susan.

551
00:37:54,937 --> 00:37:56,022
I'm sorry.

552
00:37:56,775 --> 00:37:58,470
A lot of good that does me now.

553
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,350
Yo, V. You might want to talk to this freshman.

554
00:38:02,453 --> 00:38:05,423
He's the one who's been shooting his mouth off about Logan's mom.

555
00:38:05,786 --> 00:38:08,433
Hope you don't mind telling that story one more time.

556
00:38:09,022 --> 00:38:11,838
Hey... you paged?

557
00:38:13,441 --> 00:38:16,457
It seems Hart here has something to show us.

558
00:38:18,490 --> 00:38:19,529
Spill.

559
00:38:20,661 --> 00:38:22,519
Me and my friends were filming out by the bay.

560
00:38:22,595 --> 00:38:24,501
We were making this war movie, "Storm on the Beach."

561
00:38:24,583 --> 00:38:26,206
It's just on high def, but it's pretty cool.

562
00:38:26,327 --> 00:38:28,576
- It's these two brothers who get sent to war and--
- Don't care.

563
00:38:28,663 --> 00:38:29,507
Point?

564
00:38:30,684 --> 00:38:33,675
We were editing it together, and we noticed something.

565
00:38:40,633 --> 00:38:41,733
Over there! Over there!

566
00:38:41,831 --> 00:38:42,600
I see him!

567
00:38:47,098 --> 00:38:49,922
- Did you see it?
- Yeah, it sucks, and...?

568
00:38:50,746 --> 00:38:52,870
Rewind it. Play it frame by frame.

569
00:38:56,546 --> 00:38:58,451
There! Check out the right side of the bridge.

570
00:39:00,663 --> 00:39:01,990
Holy...

571
00:39:04,165 --> 00:39:08,211
The video's time-stamped 4:37 P.M. Exactly the time when...

572
00:39:09,054 --> 00:39:11,031
she supposedly jumped.

573
00:39:13,309 --> 00:39:16,386
This footage better never make it out into public consumption.

574
00:39:16,453 --> 00:39:18,153
Don't worry about my boy, Hart.

575
00:39:18,282 --> 00:39:21,609
He knows if that happens his last movie will be a snuff film.

576
00:39:21,778 --> 00:39:23,718
And he'll star in it, right?

577
00:39:25,202 --> 00:39:26,094
Come on.

578
00:39:32,366 --> 00:39:33,354
I'm sorry.

579
00:39:35,424 --> 00:39:36,482
So am I.

580
00:39:53,082 --> 00:39:53,978
Logan!

581
00:39:54,782 --> 00:39:55,529
Logan.

582
00:39:57,270 --> 00:40:02,022
Logan, your mom's missing credit card was just used.

583
00:40:08,242 --> 00:40:09,179
Quiet down.

584
00:40:10,368 --> 00:40:12,702
Quiet down, please. I have an announcement to make.

585
00:40:13,240 --> 00:40:17,862
I regret to inform you that Mr. Rooks tendered his resignation this morning.

586
00:40:18,635 --> 00:40:21,226
I will be taking over the teaching duties in this class

587
00:40:21,289 --> 00:40:25,226
until a replacement can be found by the administrat--

588
00:41:03,534 --> 00:41:05,182
Mr. Rooks resigned today.

589
00:41:05,381 --> 00:41:09,729
Honey, if I were in trouble, I'd want you on my side.

590
00:41:09,898 --> 00:41:11,234
Well, that's where I'd be.

591
00:41:12,186 --> 00:41:14,757
I'll be home for dinner. Your messages are on your desk.

592
00:41:29,682 --> 00:41:37,700
So... what would you like to know now, Veronica Mars, intrepid girl reporter?

593
00:41:38,048 --> 00:41:38,982
Nothing.

594
00:41:39,159 --> 00:41:41,550
This time I just want you to know what I know.

595
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:46,193
You're dying, Abel.

596
00:41:46,951 --> 00:41:49,464
You knew you were dying when you confessed.

597
00:41:49,819 --> 00:41:51,560
You didn't kill Lilly Kane.

598
00:41:52,908 --> 00:41:55,092
You're just somebody's patsy.

599
00:41:58,155 --> 00:41:59,009
Guard?
