Keith returns to the sheriff's station and tells Sacks that he needs to see Lamb, but Sacks says he looks kind of busy. Keith: "Now that's something I gotta see." Who put a snarky nickel in Keith today? I like it.
Cut to Lamb's office: "So if I'm hearing you right, you're calling me a dumb-ass." Keith manages not to take that bait; he's just wowing me left and right here. He does try to impress upon Lamb that Dean Ed's death was a murder, and tells him what we knew (which is that the Dean was out of Xanax), and also what we didn't know, which is that the autopsy showed that Dean's blood had traces of Xanax in it, and that the Dean's prescription was picked up on the day in question by his wife. This actually gets through to Lamb, and he summons Sacks and tells him to call Hearst and see if they still have any of the Dean's stuff -- phone, computer, etc. -- that they can dust for prints. Also, he tells Sacks to bring Mindy in. Sacks scurries off as Keith and Lamb look at each other all, "Well, this is new." I hope it's not too much of a spoiler to tell you it's not going to last. Credits.
Keith goes to see Veronica again, and asks her if she bugged Landry's phone. She denies it, and realizes that Landry caught on to her question about the movie. Keith believes her, but neither of them thinks to ask the obvious question, which is, if not them, who? We'll come back to that later.
God, this set is getting a workout. On his way out, Keith runs into Logan, who greets him both warmly and respectfully. Perhaps confused by this, Keith looks at him for a long moment, then is all, "Down the hall on the right." Heh. Once inside, Logan notes that Veronica doesn't have any holiday decorations, and Veronica tells him that the whole reason she's in jail is to avoid Valentine's Day. I've heard worse ideas. Logan gives her an unabashed smile, and Veronica admits that she's glad to see him. He says that they're both adults, and that they can be civil. Looks like the Dean's not the only who needed prescription drugs, 'cause that's crazy talk! Logan asks if Veronica needs anything, and she tells him that if he's going back to campus, he should get her wireless card back from the deputy and bring it to Mac, since she needs it for a "thing" that night. Logan grins, and he and Veronica get a little misty and googly, and kids? You could just get back together, you know. I mean, I'm pretty sure the show's not budgeted to bring Amanda Noret back for any more disturbing dream sequences.
