VMVO wonders what one wears to meet the governor. Cut to her sporting a cater waiter's uniform, and a black wig and glasses that make her look like Janeane Garafolo with a perm given by a drunken stylist. And speaking of, Veronica takes a swig out of a water bottle in the refrigerator and spits it out, the implication being that the liquid's proof is a positive number. It's probably vodka, with the lack of an odor and all. She asks information for "the Hazelwood facility in SoCal." I'm guessing the person who handles refunds is not going to be available for her.
Party. Veronica walks around with a tray as someone opines that "the crab puffs are fantastic." That line sounds like it was looped in from Austria, if you take my meaning. Hee. I would have like them to follow up with a shot at Maria Shriver, though. Veronica looks around as she heads for an unpopulated area. I should note that this scheme does seem elaborate, since she could just have told Duncan the situation and he probably would have helped her. But she probably would have had to wait until after the party, so maybe this was the most expeditious way. Also, she's got to have at least some doubt about Logan's guilt if she's going to this much trouble.
Cut to Veronica putting her tray down on a table. It falls off, though, making a loud clatter.
Cut to Veronica entering Lilly's room, turning on the light, and getting on a chair to attend to the grate. She sees that one of the screws is partially undone. Hmm. She continues to work, though, and behind her, the door slowly swings ajar. We get a DUN DUN DUN-cam view before we go to commercial.
When we're back, Duncan enters the room and tackles Veronica off the stepladder. Her wig comes off, and she tells him to stop, and that she's looking for something. He asks if she shouldn't be looking in his room, since that's where all the clues would be. He gets kind of creepy as he keeps grabbing Veronica and telling her to find everything out: "Maybe I left a confession on my Etch-A-Sketch!" Well, I hope there's no confession of the events of the Pomroy party on there. It is a children's toy, after all. Veronica tells Duncan to calm down, and that she doesn't think Duncan killed Lilly -- she thinks Logan did. Duncan hesitantly demurs, but Veronica informs him that Logan was in Neptune the day of the murder, and he found out Lilly was seeing someone -- Weevil, she thinks. A shot from the closet suggests there might be another party to this conversation. And here's another place they could have thrown in Maria Shriver. Come on, you know she's the nosy type. Veronica tells Duncan about Lilly's habit of hiding things in her air vent, and after considering that, Duncan suggests that they see what's in there. So he's not exactly convinced that Logan couldn't have done it, either. Veronica finds three digital videotapes inside, and Duncan tells her he has a camera they can play them on. Well, of course he does. They leave, and we get another shot of the closet. Given how many people are in the closet on this show, I'm surprised they managed to stay quiet.
