Episode Report Card Couch Baron: B+ | 1 USERS: B+ YOU GRADE IT Mac's Daddy...
By Couch Baron | Season 1 | Episode 11 | Aired on 01.03.2005
Interrogation room. Keith shows some dude, who was bartending at the last place the latest victim was seen, a picture of her. They guy claims that all the sorority girls start to look the same, and that the night in question was particularly bad, since it was 2-for-1 shots for women. Veronica appears at the window with Keith's dinner. Aw. The guy sees her, and conveys the sentiment that...well, as a bartender, he taps a lot of things, but her ass would be high on his list. Keith tells him that's his daughter. Bartender: "Wouldn't mind havin' her call me daddy." Keith flies into a rage and knocks the guy off his chair, because he's got dibs on using the word "daddy" inappropriately with Veronica. Also, the writers are clearly trying to cast someone in as unctuous a light as Trufflehunter, to give us more than one prime suspect. And I have to say, it's working. Fuckface watches this all impassively. Don't tell anyone, but he's just the tiniest bit amusing this episode.
Veronica greets the cute boy who was in the briefing earlier. She introduces herself to the guy, whose name is Leo. They make with the flirting, which normally wouldn't be a bad thing. However, I just now noticed that his delivery and mannerisms are weirdly Eric Balfour-esque, and that can only end in tragedy. He's liable to die of a drug overdose or be turned into a vampire. Or worse yet, roam L.A. for years without latching onto a new show that lasts more than a few episodes. Anyway, Leo goes to put the lunch in the mini-fridge, affording Veronica the opportunity to take a look for the tape, although it doesn't look like she finds it. Leo returns and tells Veronica that it's going to be really tough not to eat that dinner himself, but that he'll refrain if Veronica will come back and visit him sometime. Oh, Leo. When the fly invites the spider into his home, it's just not even sporting. Veronica sunnily agrees and heads out. VMVO: "Oh, Deputy Leo. You might as well leave me a key and a map." And it'll be easy for her to get into the sheriff's office, too. Hi-yoooo!
Interrogation room. Keith and Fuckface are asking questions. The bartender is more tractable now that the insolence has been flipped out of him. He tells them that they should talk to "the Worm," who apparently videotapes girls in the bar, then sells them to something called Girls Gone Bad. Not clear at this point whether that's a magazine or a website, not that it really matters. I just hope Keith doesn't find a Photoshopped Veronica in there. Because the most likely suspect for submitting that would be Logan, and then the forum posters would lose their fey-vorite character.
