1
00:00:01,193 --> 00:00:02,820
Previously on "Veronica Mars"...
2
00:00:02,903 --> 00:00:04,071
Why does she hate me?
3
00:00:04,154 --> 00:00:06,990
She'd hate anyone she thought
Duncan might love as much as her.
4
00:00:07,074 --> 00:00:10,077
Friendly advice? Watch her.
She'll break the two of you up if she can.
5
00:00:10,202 --> 00:00:12,621
Duncan Kane.
He used to be my boyfriend.
6
00:00:12,704 --> 00:00:15,207
It's been a year since my best friend,
Lilly Kane, was murdered.
7
00:00:15,249 --> 00:00:17,501
That's my girlfriend.
Your friend. Duncan's sister.
8
00:00:17,626 --> 00:00:19,586
I think we could be more patient, Jake.
9
00:00:19,670 --> 00:00:21,463
We all lost Lilly and we all miss her.
10
00:00:21,588 --> 00:00:23,882
But that doesn't mean
we stop living our lives.
11
00:00:23,966 --> 00:00:26,176
The truth is gonna come out.
It doesn't add up.
12
00:00:26,301 --> 00:00:27,678
You know that deep down inside.
13
00:00:27,761 --> 00:00:29,138
- Flat?
- Just as God made me.
14
00:00:29,221 --> 00:00:31,431
- You need some help? I'm Troy.
- I'm Veronica.
15
00:00:40,482 --> 00:00:42,818
Okay. I'm...
16
00:00:43,652 --> 00:00:45,779
- I'm really leaving now.
- Okay.
17
00:00:47,030 --> 00:00:49,283
- Seriously.
- See you.
18
00:00:50,742 --> 00:00:53,036
Okay. Good night, all right? No more.
19
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:54,371
Good night.
20
00:00:56,373 --> 00:01:01,086
You know, if we were the type of people
who attended school functions...
21
00:01:02,171 --> 00:01:05,340
...this would probably be the time
I'd ask you to homecoming dance.
22
00:01:12,890 --> 00:01:14,141
Boy.
23
00:01:18,604 --> 00:01:20,939
So, what did you think of him?
24
00:01:22,191 --> 00:01:23,650
Oh, hey. You're home early.
25
00:01:23,817 --> 00:01:27,112
Hey. Did you run his license plate
or did you get fingerprints?
26
00:01:27,237 --> 00:01:30,073
- I'm sorry, honey, what?
- You know you're not fooling me.
27
00:01:30,949 --> 00:01:32,284
Okay.
28
00:01:34,786 --> 00:01:37,247
Veronica, I have no idea
what you're talking about.
29
00:01:41,043 --> 00:01:43,295
Oh, hey. I forgot to tell you.
30
00:01:43,754 --> 00:01:46,757
If he's gonna be kissing my daughter
for eight and a half minutes,
31
00:01:46,882 --> 00:01:48,091
I'll need to meet him.
32
00:01:48,217 --> 00:01:49,635
Sweet dreams, honey.
33
00:01:50,594 --> 00:01:51,970
Is that really necessary?
34
00:01:52,095 --> 00:01:54,473
He's taking up a lot
of daddy-daughter time.
35
00:01:54,598 --> 00:01:56,016
I hardly get to see you.
36
00:01:56,141 --> 00:01:58,143
- I see you constantly.
- Oh, sure.
37
00:01:58,310 --> 00:02:00,979
You see me, but we don't do anything.
38
00:02:22,459 --> 00:02:24,920
You bought your homecoming dress
without me?
39
00:02:25,087 --> 00:02:26,213
What?
40
00:02:26,338 --> 00:02:30,300
Why do you insist on suppressing
your hotness?
41
00:02:30,425 --> 00:02:33,679
The world is ready for you, Veronica Mars.
You don't have to blend in.
42
00:02:33,804 --> 00:02:35,305
I'm not trying to blend in.
43
00:02:35,430 --> 00:02:39,059
I mean, none of this
reflects your personality at all.
44
00:02:39,434 --> 00:02:44,273
Why do you even have this?
You are not a yellow cotton dress.
45
00:02:44,439 --> 00:02:45,774
What am I?
46
00:02:45,899 --> 00:02:49,861
You're like... You're... You're red satin.
47
00:02:49,987 --> 00:02:53,240
You are strapless red satin.
Look at this.
48
00:02:53,490 --> 00:02:56,660
But there's no time for red satin, Lilly.
The dance is tomorrow.
49
00:02:56,785 --> 00:03:01,373
Oh, God. Wait a minute. You know that
we're really not going to the dance, right?
50
00:03:01,498 --> 00:03:03,083
Wait, what are you talking about?
51
00:03:03,250 --> 00:03:07,504
The dance is just a lame excuse
for a new dress and a limo party.
52
00:03:07,629 --> 00:03:10,966
Logan has got all the refreshments
taken care of, so it's gonna be amazing.
53
00:03:11,133 --> 00:03:12,509
No, I can't do that.
54
00:03:12,634 --> 00:03:15,637
You know my dad.
He will find out, and I'll get crushed.
55
00:03:15,887 --> 00:03:18,557
- You'll get grounded.
- Severely.
56
00:03:18,682 --> 00:03:20,726
Whoop-dee-freaking-doo, Veronica.
57
00:03:20,892 --> 00:03:23,353
I mean, grounding lasts, what, a week?
58
00:03:23,478 --> 00:03:28,233
You are gonna remember this fun we have
for the rest of your life.
59
00:03:28,358 --> 00:03:30,068
Trust me.
60
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:38,493
Let me help you with that.
61
00:03:38,619 --> 00:03:40,871
You have to let me
do something, Wallace.
62
00:03:44,708 --> 00:03:48,003
Okay, that was the pile you just got
finished alphabetizing, wasn't it?
63
00:03:48,128 --> 00:03:49,796
Actually, it was two piles.
64
00:03:49,921 --> 00:03:53,050
Could I be a bigger spaz? Seriously.
65
00:03:53,300 --> 00:03:56,136
Yes, you could have
knocked over three piles.
66
00:03:56,261 --> 00:03:57,846
I'm so sorry.
67
00:03:57,929 --> 00:04:00,932
You would've been out of here
two hours ago if it wasn't for me.
68
00:04:01,266 --> 00:04:04,186
- Really not a problem.
- Okay, you can stop being nice.
69
00:04:04,269 --> 00:04:06,813
- I know I ruined your whole night.
- Georgia.
70
00:04:07,230 --> 00:04:10,150
Trust me. You haven't.
71
00:04:14,863 --> 00:04:17,199
I think I did something really stupid.
72
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:23,872
See, I got this e-mail.
73
00:04:24,164 --> 00:04:27,417
This guy, Karl, is super rich,
a trust-fund kid.
74
00:04:27,542 --> 00:04:30,128
I guess he has a gambling problem
and got into trouble...
75
00:04:30,253 --> 00:04:33,215
...so he sent the e-mail
to a friend asking for help.
76
00:04:33,924 --> 00:04:36,259
Overflowing toilets.
Use the faculty restroom.
77
00:04:38,929 --> 00:04:41,807
Okay, first of all, a trust-fund kid
doesn't send a message...
78
00:04:41,932 --> 00:04:44,851
...from grrrantastic-tech.com domain.
79
00:04:44,976 --> 00:04:46,436
That's pure nerd.
80
00:04:46,561 --> 00:04:50,065
"Hey, I know we've not been in contact
for a while, but I'm hoping you can help."
81
00:04:50,190 --> 00:04:52,317
He was offering a 200-percent interest.
82
00:04:52,442 --> 00:04:54,653
I only had to loan him the money
for two weeks...
83
00:04:54,778 --> 00:04:57,239
...until his 21st birthday,
when he gets his trust fund.
84
00:04:57,364 --> 00:04:59,408
So you told him
you'd front him the cash.
85
00:04:59,491 --> 00:05:03,161
Yeah, and everything would've been fine
if he paid me two weeks ago.
86
00:05:03,537 --> 00:05:05,831
Everything's going to be fine.
Okay, Georgia?
87
00:05:06,164 --> 00:05:08,583
- We'll get him.
- Will we, now?
88
00:05:11,795 --> 00:05:13,797
Hi, Karl, it's Amber.
89
00:05:13,922 --> 00:05:16,508
I got an e-mail from you,
I guess by mistake...
90
00:05:16,633 --> 00:05:21,221
...but I think I can help you.
Give me a call. 555-0196.
91
00:05:22,222 --> 00:05:24,933
And I'm late for Bio again.
92
00:05:25,892 --> 00:05:27,936
Ten percent of whatever I recover.
93
00:05:30,397 --> 00:05:32,816
Hi, you've reached Amber.
Leave me a message.
94
00:05:33,150 --> 00:05:34,651
Thank you.
95
00:05:38,238 --> 00:05:39,865
Did I tell you?
96
00:06:14,775 --> 00:06:16,943
Last day to buy
homecoming tickets.
97
00:06:17,068 --> 00:06:20,572
No homecoming tickets for the dance
will be sold after that time.
98
00:06:20,947 --> 00:06:22,908
Kicking off the homecoming festivities:
99
00:06:23,033 --> 00:06:26,286
The dedication of the Lilly Kane
Memorial Fountain.
100
00:06:26,453 --> 00:06:29,456
The Kane family would like to invite
all students and faculty...
101
00:06:29,581 --> 00:06:31,917
...to attend the tribute
and celebrate the memory...
102
00:06:32,042 --> 00:06:34,878
...of one of Neptune High's
most beloved students.
103
00:06:35,462 --> 00:06:37,172
And in other news...
104
00:06:39,341 --> 00:06:43,303
You and me, Thursday night.
I'm thinking mini golf.
105
00:06:43,512 --> 00:06:45,138
It's what all the kids are doing.
106
00:06:46,973 --> 00:06:49,643
But you don't golf.
107
00:06:49,976 --> 00:06:51,811
My dad wants to meet you.
108
00:06:51,937 --> 00:06:54,022
That's cool. I'll pick you up at the door.
109
00:06:54,147 --> 00:06:56,691
I can't do the "beep and wave,"
but that's no problem.
110
00:06:56,775 --> 00:06:58,985
My dad's a little intense.
111
00:06:59,069 --> 00:07:01,780
Don't worry. I give good parent.
112
00:07:04,199 --> 00:07:07,118
And just so I can make
the appropriate arrangements...
113
00:07:08,912 --> 00:07:10,831
...homecoming is a go, right?
114
00:07:10,956 --> 00:07:12,749
This should make me happy...
115
00:07:13,083 --> 00:07:15,752
Yeah. Yeah. It'll be fun.
116
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:24,219
The big dance being a staple
of every high school girl's fantasy.
117
00:07:25,178 --> 00:07:27,055
I've already lived the dream.
118
00:07:27,222 --> 00:07:29,891
Everything else seems like
a cheap reminder.
119
00:07:30,016 --> 00:07:33,228
Lilly, dear, everyone is waiting.
120
00:07:33,812 --> 00:07:36,565
What is she doing?
How long does it take to put on a dress?
121
00:07:36,690 --> 00:07:40,527
Honey, you know your sister.
It's not an entrance if she's on time.
122
00:07:40,777 --> 00:07:42,612
Maybe you should go and help her.
123
00:07:44,281 --> 00:07:46,283
I think she's got it covered.
124
00:07:51,413 --> 00:07:54,958
I believe Keanu Reeves said it best
when he said:
125
00:07:55,429 --> 00:07:57,085
Whoa!
126
00:07:57,919 --> 00:08:02,215
All right, let's make with the pictures
before the glitter rubs off.
127
00:08:02,299 --> 00:08:03,883
Okay.
128
00:08:04,884 --> 00:08:07,554
- Would you...? Please?
- Oh, yeah, of course.
129
00:08:07,679 --> 00:08:10,599
- Okay.
- You all look very nice.
130
00:08:10,724 --> 00:08:12,100
Lilly, could you...?
131
00:08:13,727 --> 00:08:14,853
All right.
132
00:08:14,978 --> 00:08:18,315
I'm only young once.
How many braless years do I have left?
133
00:08:31,244 --> 00:08:33,538
All right. Let's go.
134
00:08:33,663 --> 00:08:35,665
- Be careful.
- Be safe out there.
135
00:08:38,084 --> 00:08:40,378
Ladies and gentlemen, Veronica Mars.
136
00:08:40,754 --> 00:08:44,758
I've talked to that girl more today than
I have in the past four months combined.
137
00:08:44,883 --> 00:08:48,136
- Her pain is your pleasure?
- Hey, hey, I'm the cavalry.
138
00:08:48,261 --> 00:08:50,388
I get to save the day.
139
00:08:51,222 --> 00:08:53,892
We are gonna save the day, right?
140
00:08:55,310 --> 00:08:56,645
Hello?
141
00:08:57,062 --> 00:08:58,855
Oh, yeah, this is Amber.
142
00:08:59,105 --> 00:09:00,649
Oh, my God, hi.
143
00:09:00,774 --> 00:09:03,234
Of course I can meet you today.
What time?
144
00:09:04,861 --> 00:09:06,321
What are you doing?
145
00:09:08,198 --> 00:09:12,160
My mother thought it'd be nice to have
a video tribute of Lilly for the dedication.
146
00:09:12,327 --> 00:09:14,746
- What, she wanted you to do it?
- No, my dad did.
147
00:09:15,872 --> 00:09:17,624
He wanted someone who knew her.
148
00:09:20,210 --> 00:09:21,836
You want me to do it, man?
149
00:09:22,587 --> 00:09:25,965
You know I'm awesome at that stuff.
Come on, let me do it. I wanna do it.
150
00:09:27,592 --> 00:09:29,302
- Thanks, man.
- Yeah.
151
00:09:34,015 --> 00:09:35,475
Is that him?
152
00:09:36,351 --> 00:09:38,019
I don't think so.
153
00:09:43,608 --> 00:09:45,819
- Amber?
- Karl?
154
00:09:46,111 --> 00:09:47,570
That's me.
155
00:09:47,779 --> 00:09:51,908
You must think I'm the biggest loser, sending
my friends e-mails begging for money.
156
00:09:52,075 --> 00:09:55,745
- I don't know when this became my life.
- Well, gambling is an addiction.
157
00:09:55,870 --> 00:10:00,125
You know, it is, Amber.
Thank you for understanding.
158
00:10:00,208 --> 00:10:02,711
You're saving my life, literally.
159
00:10:04,629 --> 00:10:06,214
That's not him.
160
00:10:06,798 --> 00:10:09,300
But I think Karl had on the same outfit.
161
00:10:09,759 --> 00:10:11,970
He even had the same ugly backpack.
162
00:10:12,470 --> 00:10:15,306
- Stay right here.
- Be careful, Wallace.
163
00:10:23,022 --> 00:10:24,649
So just so that we're clear...
164
00:10:24,774 --> 00:10:29,154
...the deal is, I give you $3000 this week,
and you give me $6000 next week?
165
00:10:29,279 --> 00:10:32,699
On my 21st birthday.
That's the day my trust fund is unlocked.
166
00:10:32,782 --> 00:10:34,909
So who do I make the check out to?
167
00:10:35,410 --> 00:10:37,954
I'm sorry. Didn't I tell you
it had to be in cash?
168
00:10:38,204 --> 00:10:40,081
- Did you?
- Remember?
169
00:10:40,165 --> 00:10:43,501
I can't deposit anything at the bank
because all my accounts are frozen...
170
00:10:43,710 --> 00:10:46,671
- ...until my birthday.
- Okay, I'll...
171
00:10:46,796 --> 00:10:49,215
It must be the hair. Blond.
172
00:10:50,967 --> 00:10:52,552
Should we meet
back here tomorrow?
173
00:10:52,677 --> 00:10:55,513
- Tomorrow. Same time?
- Perfect.
174
00:10:57,766 --> 00:10:59,100
Karl...
175
00:10:59,392 --> 00:11:01,019
...I can trust you, right?
176
00:11:01,102 --> 00:11:04,606
You can trust me, Amber.
Hand to God.
177
00:11:27,045 --> 00:11:30,256
And where do con men go
when they're done conning for the day?
178
00:11:30,423 --> 00:11:32,258
To a funky bohemian theater...
179
00:11:32,383 --> 00:11:36,012
...for an avant-garde staging
of a Beckett play, naturally.
180
00:11:54,113 --> 00:11:56,032
You've gotta be kidding me.
181
00:11:59,744 --> 00:12:01,955
- Hey, Tino.
- Mikey. Thank you.
182
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,707
Hey, Jimmy, you were great.
183
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:07,544
- Hi.
- How are you?
184
00:12:07,669 --> 00:12:09,003
Good, how are you?
185
00:12:09,212 --> 00:12:10,880
Listen. I'll catch you guys later.
186
00:12:11,005 --> 00:12:13,049
- Hey, man, nice job.
- Hey. Thanks, man.
187
00:12:16,803 --> 00:12:18,179
What are you doing here?
188
00:12:18,304 --> 00:12:20,223
I'm a huge Beckett fan.
189
00:12:22,225 --> 00:12:24,936
- Hand to God.
- Wait a minute.
190
00:12:25,228 --> 00:12:26,729
This is part of the show, right?
191
00:12:26,855 --> 00:12:30,275
You're not gonna get me like that.
T! Liam!
192
00:12:30,441 --> 00:12:32,986
You guys can come out.
I ain't buying it.
193
00:12:33,778 --> 00:12:37,115
So is this part of the same episode,
or am I getting paid again?
194
00:12:37,740 --> 00:12:40,285
- What are you talking about?
- Duped.
195
00:12:41,578 --> 00:12:44,998
- You're telling me that Duped is a show?
- I thought you were a part of this.
196
00:12:45,123 --> 00:12:48,710
It's a reality show where people get
duped into doing things...
197
00:12:48,835 --> 00:12:51,629
- ...like giving a stranger their car or money.
- There were no cameras.
198
00:12:51,754 --> 00:12:55,091
You're not supposed to see them.
That's the whole point, right?
199
00:12:55,216 --> 00:12:57,427
There's no show, Jimmy.
200
00:12:57,969 --> 00:13:01,097
What are you talking about,
"There's no show"? I auditioned. I got cast.
201
00:13:01,222 --> 00:13:04,726
It's a scam. My friend Georgia
was duped about two weeks ago...
202
00:13:04,851 --> 00:13:07,770
...out of $6000
by some other trust-fund Karl.
203
00:13:08,855 --> 00:13:10,398
No.
204
00:13:11,608 --> 00:13:13,902
How did you find out about this?
205
00:13:14,402 --> 00:13:16,571
There was an ad in Back Stage West.
206
00:13:16,696 --> 00:13:19,782
Open call, but, you know,
I'm between agents right now.
207
00:13:19,908 --> 00:13:21,868
They just called to tell me I got the job.
208
00:13:21,993 --> 00:13:23,995
Do you still have the number
on your cell phone?
209
00:13:24,204 --> 00:13:28,791
Wait. You're telling me there's no show?
For real? This isn't a dupe?
210
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:37,258
There it is.
211
00:13:38,801 --> 00:13:40,887
Hey! What about my SAG points?
212
00:13:41,012 --> 00:13:44,474
A payphone that doesn't accept
incoming calls. Shocker.
213
00:13:44,724 --> 00:13:48,561
From a place called Gameland? I guess
it's a cybercafé, but I'll check it out.
214
00:13:48,686 --> 00:13:51,272
No, it's not a cybercafé.
It's a gaming club.
215
00:13:51,397 --> 00:13:54,525
It's, like, a bunch of computer nerds
trying to blow each other up.
216
00:13:54,651 --> 00:13:57,111
Only girls they see in there
are Japanimated.
217
00:13:57,278 --> 00:13:59,822
So you're not gonna really blend.
218
00:14:01,115 --> 00:14:02,825
So I won't blend.
219
00:14:26,891 --> 00:14:28,309
Thanks.
220
00:14:46,411 --> 00:14:50,248
- I have one word: Ownage.
- Like I care.
221
00:14:51,457 --> 00:14:53,334
I just fragged you.
222
00:14:54,877 --> 00:14:58,172
And I just fragged you again.
223
00:15:05,388 --> 00:15:07,140
Can you watch my stuff?
224
00:15:08,141 --> 00:15:09,559
Yeah.
225
00:15:24,741 --> 00:15:29,162
Grrrantula, a gamer?
E-mail from Grrrantastic-tech.
226
00:15:29,746 --> 00:15:32,248
A coincidence? I think not.
227
00:15:32,373 --> 00:15:34,208
Gamegirl.
228
00:15:52,643 --> 00:15:56,064
Now let's see if I can't get
Grrrantula's attention.
229
00:16:08,993 --> 00:16:10,995
Stop killing your own team.
230
00:16:12,872 --> 00:16:14,707
Hey, cut the crap.
231
00:16:19,796 --> 00:16:22,006
Come on, loser, show yourself.
232
00:16:22,131 --> 00:16:24,550
Hey, I'm on your team, lamer.
233
00:16:28,304 --> 00:16:30,473
Wow, I'm really bad at this.
234
00:16:33,392 --> 00:16:34,769
Ownage!
235
00:16:35,269 --> 00:16:38,022
Hey, it's not ownage!
I'm on your team!
236
00:16:45,154 --> 00:16:46,614
Devlin.
237
00:16:48,866 --> 00:16:51,911
- What was the first name?
- Here, it'll be faster.
238
00:16:59,836 --> 00:17:02,130
It was hiding under the Qs.
239
00:17:03,381 --> 00:17:08,803
Grant's ID indicated he was living in
Lannigan Hall at San Diego State...
240
00:17:09,053 --> 00:17:13,099
...a university known for liberal arts,
its picturesque campus...
241
00:17:13,474 --> 00:17:15,226
...and its parties.
242
00:17:18,062 --> 00:17:20,022
It's not going to work.
243
00:17:22,316 --> 00:17:24,402
You can't take the cool out of me.
244
00:17:24,694 --> 00:17:27,655
Look, pocket protector,
and I'm still full of pimp juice.
245
00:17:27,780 --> 00:17:31,200
Shouldn't you be a little bit more somber
for your poor scammed girlfriend?
246
00:17:31,284 --> 00:17:34,745
You know she's not my girlfriend,
so why are you trying to play it like that?
247
00:17:34,871 --> 00:17:37,707
- Like what?
- Like you wanna have this conversation...
248
00:17:37,832 --> 00:17:40,293
...about whether I like her or whatever...
249
00:17:40,418 --> 00:17:43,713
...like we just got out of cheerleading
practice. Guys don't do that.
250
00:17:43,838 --> 00:17:45,214
Okay.
251
00:17:47,884 --> 00:17:50,011
If a guy likes someone,
he just likes them.
252
00:17:50,136 --> 00:17:53,389
He doesn't need to have
a five-hour talk about it.
253
00:17:53,556 --> 00:17:56,184
So you like her,
we're just not talking about it?
254
00:17:56,309 --> 00:17:57,643
Yes.
255
00:17:58,436 --> 00:18:01,063
- Do you like her a lot?
- Yes, I like her a lot.
256
00:18:01,189 --> 00:18:04,859
Yes, I go two floors out of my way
between classes so I can see her.
257
00:18:04,984 --> 00:18:09,989
Yes, I volunteered to reorganize
an entire filing system of attendance crap...
258
00:18:10,114 --> 00:18:12,241
...just so I could be
in the same room with her.
259
00:18:12,533 --> 00:18:14,619
- You happy?
- I still think you're a badass.
260
00:18:14,744 --> 00:18:16,204
And I am.
261
00:18:16,496 --> 00:18:18,915
And nobody's gonna buy me as a nerd.
262
00:18:19,332 --> 00:18:21,542
You've been bought.
I called the resident advisor...
263
00:18:21,667 --> 00:18:24,003
...and told him you were
a prospective freshman.
264
00:18:24,170 --> 00:18:25,713
And they believed you because...?
265
00:18:25,838 --> 00:18:29,091
Because I do a surprisingly convincing
admissions assistant.
266
00:18:29,258 --> 00:18:32,803
But tonight, you lucky boy,
I'm all nerd hag.
267
00:18:32,929 --> 00:18:37,850
Okay, let's get this party started,
because I am hungry for gratitude.
268
00:18:53,157 --> 00:18:56,118
Okay, it's my turn. Logan.
269
00:18:56,244 --> 00:18:57,578
Truth.
270
00:18:57,954 --> 00:19:00,414
What did you think of Veronica
the first time you saw her?
271
00:19:00,540 --> 00:19:01,999
I don't know. I thought she was hot.
272
00:19:02,708 --> 00:19:04,502
I was 12 when you moved here.
273
00:19:04,669 --> 00:19:07,338
Like you weren't working it
in your shorts and knee socks.
274
00:19:07,463 --> 00:19:09,090
That was my soccer uniform!
275
00:19:09,215 --> 00:19:11,467
Whatever! It totally worked!
276
00:19:12,593 --> 00:19:14,262
Okay, Lilly.
277
00:19:14,428 --> 00:19:16,305
- Dare.
- Shocker.
278
00:19:16,430 --> 00:19:18,849
Okay, kiss someone in this limo.
279
00:19:19,475 --> 00:19:21,018
Come on, man.
280
00:19:22,645 --> 00:19:24,063
Come on.
281
00:19:26,107 --> 00:19:27,608
Here we go.
282
00:19:33,447 --> 00:19:36,534
- Oh, no.
- A little girl-on-girl action!
283
00:19:36,659 --> 00:19:39,287
Dude, that's my sister and my girlfriend.
284
00:19:39,412 --> 00:19:42,248
Yeah, dude, like that one's
not in the rotation.
285
00:19:44,458 --> 00:19:46,460
Dude, this is my dad's tux.
286
00:19:46,586 --> 00:19:49,046
I didn't know, man. Here!
287
00:19:49,130 --> 00:19:51,591
- You're so dead!
- I got you, baby!
288
00:19:51,716 --> 00:19:54,093
- Come on, baby!
- I got you. Oh, my God!
289
00:19:56,429 --> 00:19:59,599
- Our boyfriends are all class.
- Yeah.
290
00:20:00,016 --> 00:20:04,020
Tick, tock. Very cute girl in need
of our help right now.
291
00:20:15,781 --> 00:20:19,243
Yeah, so we're pretty chill around here.
292
00:20:19,535 --> 00:20:22,663
I mean, there's rules and stuff,
but it's mostly like...
293
00:20:22,788 --> 00:20:26,375
..."Don't light stuff on fire,
don't get caught with drugs," you know.
294
00:20:26,542 --> 00:20:27,793
Cool.
295
00:20:27,918 --> 00:20:30,087
Hey, I think I know that guy.
296
00:20:30,546 --> 00:20:34,091
Grant? Yeah, he's pretty famous
around here.
297
00:20:34,216 --> 00:20:36,385
He's, like, a genius or something.
298
00:20:36,510 --> 00:20:39,722
Him and that bouncer-looking dude
over there.
299
00:20:41,307 --> 00:20:44,727
They call them the Silicon Mafia.
300
00:20:45,102 --> 00:20:48,522
Basically, around here,
these guys are legend.
301
00:20:49,940 --> 00:20:52,360
This dude got caught looking
at Grant's laptop screen.
302
00:20:52,485 --> 00:20:54,904
The next day he was put on
academic probation...
303
00:20:55,029 --> 00:20:58,324
...because his GPA dropped
from a 3.8 to a 1.5.
304
00:20:58,449 --> 00:21:00,576
Overnight on the university
computer system.
305
00:21:00,701 --> 00:21:03,954
And they have a security system.
Like, with laser beams.
306
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:05,873
I think they're building robots
or something.
307
00:21:05,998 --> 00:21:09,627
I felt the wall in the dorm next to theirs,
and it was way hot.
308
00:21:09,794 --> 00:21:12,546
Do you know how many grow lights
they probably have?
309
00:21:12,672 --> 00:21:15,883
The walls are so hot because
of a million-dollar bank of computers.
310
00:21:16,008 --> 00:21:18,469
That they bought
with their weed money.
311
00:21:21,263 --> 00:21:24,433
Is it okay for people to be shooting
Roman candles down the stairways?
312
00:21:24,558 --> 00:21:27,269
Man. You know?
313
00:21:36,362 --> 00:21:39,073
- So, what do you plan on majoring in?
- Math?
314
00:21:39,198 --> 00:21:40,741
Math? Wow.
315
00:21:41,117 --> 00:21:42,535
So, what are you into?
316
00:21:42,660 --> 00:21:45,287
Chaos theory, PDEs, adjoint methods?
What's your thing?
317
00:21:45,454 --> 00:21:49,542
I'm pretty interested
in adjoint methods. Right now.
318
00:21:49,667 --> 00:21:51,502
For error estimation or duality?
319
00:21:51,961 --> 00:21:56,090
I know this is gonna sound kind of weird,
but I'm interested in both.
320
00:21:56,716 --> 00:21:58,634
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
321
00:22:20,531 --> 00:22:22,950
Poincaré Conjecture
or Fermat's Last Theorem.
322
00:22:23,075 --> 00:22:26,036
Which better defines geometry
of three-dimensional space?
323
00:22:33,335 --> 00:22:35,421
What the hell are you doing?
324
00:22:38,883 --> 00:22:41,802
They told me this was Sri Lanka.
I wanted a coconut toddy.
325
00:22:41,927 --> 00:22:44,263
- What the hell's going on?
- We had an intruder.
326
00:22:44,388 --> 00:22:45,931
How'd you open the door?
327
00:22:46,390 --> 00:22:49,769
- I don't know. I just opened it.
- That's impossible. It's always locked.
328
00:22:50,144 --> 00:22:51,312
Grant?
329
00:22:51,437 --> 00:22:56,275
And the real way the Silicon Mafia
finances their empire becomes clear.
330
00:22:57,067 --> 00:23:00,404
- Hey.
- I don't feel so good, Papa Bear.
331
00:23:10,289 --> 00:23:13,042
- "Papa Bear"?
- Never happened.
332
00:23:16,295 --> 00:23:18,214
My first college party.
333
00:23:18,430 --> 00:23:21,675
Drinking pina coladas with a dude
and talking about math.
334
00:23:21,801 --> 00:23:24,094
They've gotta be hiding something big
in that dorm room...
335
00:23:24,220 --> 00:23:26,013
...to have that much security.
336
00:23:26,305 --> 00:23:28,474
An alarm that sends
a message to your cell phone?
337
00:23:28,599 --> 00:23:30,476
What's wrong with a dead bolt?
338
00:23:34,980 --> 00:23:38,025
Wow, you've got it bad.
339
00:23:38,609 --> 00:23:40,903
Nothing bad about this, my friend.
340
00:23:48,911 --> 00:23:52,456
Mom, if you don't put that camera down,
I won't go out there.
341
00:24:12,810 --> 00:24:15,479
What part of my ignoring you
makes you think you're welcome?
342
00:24:15,604 --> 00:24:17,189
What are you doing?
343
00:24:17,982 --> 00:24:22,486
Assembling the world's
most boring memorial video.
344
00:24:24,655 --> 00:24:26,115
Ballet...
345
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,159
...choir recital, debutante crap...
346
00:24:29,493 --> 00:24:31,203
...Girl Scouts.
347
00:24:32,079 --> 00:24:34,874
Memories both misty and watercolored.
348
00:24:39,628 --> 00:24:42,006
It's Lilly as a long-distance commercial.
349
00:24:42,256 --> 00:24:44,258
Well, it isn't really about Lilly, is it?
350
00:24:46,218 --> 00:24:48,178
God, this would piss her off.
351
00:24:48,554 --> 00:24:52,182
Come on, Veronica, it's your turn.
Do not lame out.
352
00:24:52,308 --> 00:24:54,310
Okay, okay, okay.
353
00:24:54,894 --> 00:24:56,562
I've never...
354
00:24:58,188 --> 00:25:01,066
- ...gone skinny-dipping.
- What?
355
00:25:01,442 --> 00:25:03,235
That is just unacceptable.
356
00:25:03,360 --> 00:25:06,280
We're gonna have to do something
about that, Veronica Mars.
357
00:25:06,447 --> 00:25:08,365
Okay. All right.
358
00:25:08,449 --> 00:25:11,869
I've never taken matters
into my own hand...
359
00:25:11,994 --> 00:25:15,456
...in the boys' locker room
after watching cheerleader tryouts.
360
00:25:16,415 --> 00:25:18,042
Dude, you are so dead.
361
00:25:18,167 --> 00:25:20,085
Very pervy, Duncan.
362
00:25:20,210 --> 00:25:22,463
- I'm a little impressed.
- You must drink, comrade.
363
00:25:22,546 --> 00:25:25,049
Tell me that was before
we started dating.
364
00:25:25,925 --> 00:25:28,510
Of course. I've never...
365
00:25:28,928 --> 00:25:33,515
I've never seen my parents having sex.
366
00:25:35,643 --> 00:25:38,187
- No way. No way.
- Yeah, I went into their room...
367
00:25:38,312 --> 00:25:39,939
- ...to borrow Mom's sweater.
- Shut up.
368
00:25:40,105 --> 00:25:42,441
- Mom was on top of Dad. Hold on!
- I don't wanna see!
369
00:25:42,566 --> 00:25:44,818
She was like this. Watch.
She was like this, she was:
370
00:25:51,617 --> 00:25:53,369
Lilly, that is so wrong.
371
00:25:53,494 --> 00:25:56,330
I think Dad probably thought so too.
372
00:25:56,455 --> 00:25:58,666
I've got one. I...
373
00:25:59,625 --> 00:26:03,295
I have never not had sex.
374
00:26:04,964 --> 00:26:09,093
- Wait. What does that even mean?
- That means drink if you are a virgin.
375
00:26:15,557 --> 00:26:17,184
What the hell.
376
00:26:17,810 --> 00:26:21,772
- Wow, Duncan. I'm shocked.
- You are so cool.
377
00:26:21,897 --> 00:26:25,234
- Oh, so cool.
- Sweet.
378
00:26:26,652 --> 00:26:29,279
"I love you. I love you."
379
00:26:29,697 --> 00:26:31,031
Oh, yeah.
380
00:26:32,157 --> 00:26:33,826
You're my girlfriend.
381
00:26:47,423 --> 00:26:50,426
I don't think this really constitutes
quality time.
382
00:26:50,551 --> 00:26:52,428
I've never loved you more.
383
00:26:53,429 --> 00:26:56,348
It's a good cause.
These guys ripped off a friend at school.
384
00:26:56,682 --> 00:26:59,810
And there's a World's Greatest Dad
trophy in your future.
385
00:27:02,104 --> 00:27:04,273
We were flying over with
heat-seeking scanners...
386
00:27:04,398 --> 00:27:07,067
...came across some high-intensity
discharge lamps.
387
00:27:07,484 --> 00:27:10,404
Looks like someone's cultivating
a little Mary J.
388
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:14,783
Mind if I come in?
389
00:27:18,078 --> 00:27:20,247
- What's going on?
- What's your name, son?
390
00:27:20,789 --> 00:27:22,166
Grant...
391
00:27:23,125 --> 00:27:24,418
...Winters.
392
00:27:24,543 --> 00:27:27,588
- Any drugs on the premises, Mr. Winters?
- Caffeine.
393
00:27:29,465 --> 00:27:31,967
- No, sir.
- You sure about that?
394
00:27:32,342 --> 00:27:34,636
Plants, seeds...
395
00:27:34,887 --> 00:27:37,848
- ...any cannabis seedlings of any kind?
- No.
396
00:27:38,390 --> 00:27:40,559
Look, we don't have any drugs, okay?
397
00:27:40,684 --> 00:27:43,270
And don't you need, like,
a warrant or something?
398
00:27:43,854 --> 00:27:46,648
What do I need a warrant for?
There's nothing here.
399
00:27:46,774 --> 00:27:48,233
Come on.
400
00:27:54,031 --> 00:27:56,617
- Why did you let him in?
- You're the one who let him in!
401
00:27:56,784 --> 00:27:59,912
Wasn't the alarm on? It's supposed
to be on even when we're here.
402
00:28:01,644 --> 00:28:04,416
- I'm heading to the snack bar.
- Set the alarm.
403
00:28:29,316 --> 00:28:30,776
Yeah?
404
00:28:32,194 --> 00:28:33,737
Oh, my God.
405
00:28:34,071 --> 00:28:35,697
I'll be right there.
406
00:28:37,616 --> 00:28:41,078
So Veronica tells me...
407
00:28:41,787 --> 00:28:44,206
Well, actually, she hasn't
told me anything about you.
408
00:28:44,331 --> 00:28:47,584
- I don't know if that's a good or bad thing.
- Neither do I.
409
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,590
If you have questions or you want
a list of references or anything...
410
00:28:53,924 --> 00:28:56,556
- You're going to the homecoming dance?
- Yes, sir, if that's okay.
411
00:28:56,627 --> 00:28:59,471
Of course. And after the dance?
412
00:28:59,763 --> 00:29:03,100
Well, I think that Veronica said
that she had to be right home after.
413
00:29:03,225 --> 00:29:06,186
Yeah, good. And you're gonna
stay for the whole dance.
414
00:29:06,311 --> 00:29:09,064
You're not gonna leave early
and go to a party or a hotel...
415
00:29:09,189 --> 00:29:11,024
...and still make it back by curfew?
416
00:29:11,233 --> 00:29:13,193
No. I mean...
417
00:29:13,694 --> 00:29:15,654
...the whole point
of going to the dance...
418
00:29:16,029 --> 00:29:17,656
...is to go to the dance.
419
00:29:17,781 --> 00:29:19,616
Good. Good.
420
00:29:19,741 --> 00:29:23,537
So you won't mind, then, that I canceled
your reservation at the Four Seasons?
421
00:29:26,123 --> 00:29:27,708
I'm here, I'm here.
422
00:29:29,251 --> 00:29:30,836
So...
423
00:29:31,295 --> 00:29:33,297
...who's ready for mini golf?
424
00:29:43,515 --> 00:29:45,392
- Hello?
- Hi. Grant Winters.
425
00:29:45,517 --> 00:29:47,144
This is Admissions calling.
426
00:29:47,269 --> 00:29:51,023
Grant, someone from Admissions
wants to talk to you.
427
00:29:54,359 --> 00:29:56,320
- Grant Winters.
- Bill Smith, Admissions.
428
00:29:56,445 --> 00:29:59,865
- Are you free Thursday night?
- Sorry, we're really not interested...
429
00:29:59,990 --> 00:30:02,951
- ...in showing some pro fro around campus.
- Oh, that's a shame.
430
00:30:03,076 --> 00:30:06,914
We wanted to land this student
before MIT snatched him up.
431
00:30:07,039 --> 00:30:09,124
And he asked for you
and your crew specifically.
432
00:30:09,249 --> 00:30:10,584
Crew?
433
00:30:11,001 --> 00:30:12,878
Yeah, I'm sure he did. Sorry, but...
434
00:30:13,003 --> 00:30:17,007
We're providing three tickets to Game Lord
for a private screening of a new game.
435
00:30:17,048 --> 00:30:18,719
- Maybe you've heard of it.
- "The Matrix."
436
00:30:18,759 --> 00:30:20,636
It's the "Matrix Online" game.
437
00:30:22,054 --> 00:30:23,430
Really?
438
00:30:26,725 --> 00:30:28,310
How's it going?
439
00:30:29,645 --> 00:30:31,605
It's very Wonder Years.
440
00:30:31,897 --> 00:30:33,607
Celeste will love it.
441
00:30:34,858 --> 00:30:36,652
So...
442
00:30:36,818 --> 00:30:40,530
...I was going through some
of my stuff, and I found this.
443
00:30:42,157 --> 00:30:44,743
- What is it?
- It's not a violin recital.
444
00:30:51,875 --> 00:30:53,669
I got a lot of work to do.
445
00:30:54,378 --> 00:30:56,421
Yeah. No, me too.
446
00:31:01,426 --> 00:31:04,554
We're gonna see the new "Matrix Online"
game. We're gonna see it!
447
00:31:04,638 --> 00:31:07,349
Did you see the video posted
with the rag-doll effects?
448
00:31:07,474 --> 00:31:09,434
The physics engine is killer.
449
00:31:09,935 --> 00:31:12,604
- What are you doing?
- Just text-messaging my girlfriend.
450
00:31:12,729 --> 00:31:14,940
Tell her how psyched I am.
451
00:31:26,493 --> 00:31:30,414
In the past 24 hours of surveillance,
this is what I've learned.
452
00:31:31,456 --> 00:31:34,293
The so-called Silicon Mafia
has developed a game...
453
00:31:34,376 --> 00:31:37,254
...that will make "Quake"
look like "Asteroids."
454
00:31:37,713 --> 00:31:39,506
They've raised their start-up capital...
455
00:31:39,631 --> 00:31:42,718
...by swindling needy and greedy
college and high school students...
456
00:31:42,843 --> 00:31:45,095
...using a variation
of the Nigerian scam.
457
00:31:45,178 --> 00:31:48,557
With no investors,
they stand to make millions.
458
00:31:50,100 --> 00:31:53,895
Unless, somehow, someone
trips them up along the way.
459
00:32:54,081 --> 00:32:56,625
I really hate these guys.
460
00:33:22,401 --> 00:33:24,027
What the hell?
461
00:33:25,779 --> 00:33:28,240
I can't believe there's no party.
462
00:33:28,782 --> 00:33:31,535
I feel so duped.
463
00:33:37,207 --> 00:33:40,460
- What the hell?
- It's the alarm on the backup drives.
464
00:33:45,173 --> 00:33:47,092
- I set the room alarm.
- Why didn't it go off?
465
00:33:47,217 --> 00:33:49,302
You can't get to the backups
without getting in.
466
00:33:49,469 --> 00:33:50,971
The backups are fine.
467
00:33:53,223 --> 00:33:55,100
What the hell?
468
00:33:56,351 --> 00:33:58,687
Oh, my God.
469
00:34:01,690 --> 00:34:03,400
The backup drives.
470
00:34:28,383 --> 00:34:32,304
"Hey, buddy, I was hoping
you could help me.
471
00:34:33,013 --> 00:34:37,350
"I'm coming into my trust fund next week,
and if you give me $7600 tomorrow night...
472
00:34:37,476 --> 00:34:39,186
"...I'll give you
your hard drives back."
473
00:34:39,311 --> 00:34:41,813
Hello, boys. Let me guess
what you're thinking.
474
00:34:41,938 --> 00:34:43,899
"Paybacks are a bitch."
475
00:34:44,566 --> 00:34:46,568
Yeah, something like that.
476
00:34:47,277 --> 00:34:49,362
Well, here, you're the math whiz.
477
00:34:50,363 --> 00:34:52,491
- It's all there.
- Like we trust you.
478
00:34:53,783 --> 00:34:55,285
Yeah, I think that's all of it.
479
00:34:55,452 --> 00:34:58,038
- Our commission's included?
- Yup.
480
00:34:58,246 --> 00:35:00,916
- Ownage.
- Can we have our backup drives now?
481
00:35:01,082 --> 00:35:05,504
You need to lay off the caffeine, Grant,
because you're downright testy.
482
00:35:06,254 --> 00:35:09,007
Your backups are in the garbage can
next to the bench.
483
00:35:09,132 --> 00:35:11,259
Yeah, you might have to dig a little.
484
00:35:13,595 --> 00:35:15,514
It just doesn't seem fair.
485
00:35:15,889 --> 00:35:19,184
I keep thinking about
all the people they scammed...
486
00:35:19,309 --> 00:35:21,853
...and how they don't have
kick-ass friends.
487
00:35:21,978 --> 00:35:25,440
Did you know there's a whole
anti-fraud agency in the FBI?
488
00:35:25,565 --> 00:35:26,983
I guess it's a big deal.
489
00:35:27,108 --> 00:35:29,361
And I was shocked to see
how interested they were...
490
00:35:29,486 --> 00:35:31,655
...in the information I had
on Liam and Grant.
491
00:35:32,489 --> 00:35:34,157
Game over.
492
00:35:42,958 --> 00:35:45,752
- I got one. I got one.
- You got one?
493
00:36:06,856 --> 00:36:09,693
Oh, my God. They called the cops.
494
00:36:13,363 --> 00:36:15,073
They called my dad.
495
00:36:15,198 --> 00:36:19,578
This is, like, the best dance ever!
496
00:36:31,923 --> 00:36:34,134
What seems to be the problem, officer?
497
00:36:34,676 --> 00:36:36,136
Lilly.
498
00:36:39,264 --> 00:36:42,934
- Are you drunk?
- Not so much anymore.
499
00:36:43,226 --> 00:36:47,314
You are absolutely unbelievable.
Why do you insist on humiliating me?
500
00:36:48,023 --> 00:36:51,776
Two kids both out all night
and one getting screamed at?
501
00:36:51,943 --> 00:36:53,820
Because I know you, Lilly.
502
00:36:54,070 --> 00:36:56,573
Any trouble this family has had,
you've been at the root.
503
00:36:56,698 --> 00:37:00,035
Mom, it's my fault. It was my idea.
504
00:37:00,493 --> 00:37:03,580
Listen, both of you.
Inside the house. Come on.
505
00:37:18,803 --> 00:37:21,306
- Sorry, Dad.
- We'll talk at home.
506
00:37:22,432 --> 00:37:25,310
Jake, Celeste, thanks for the coffee.
507
00:38:01,304 --> 00:38:04,224
Thank you to
the Neptune High Orchestra.
508
00:38:04,349 --> 00:38:06,184
I know if Lilly were here...
509
00:38:06,476 --> 00:38:08,978
...she would have been moved
by that rendition.
510
00:38:10,438 --> 00:38:12,732
Lilly really loved this place.
511
00:38:13,108 --> 00:38:14,776
So it's only fitting...
512
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:19,989
...that as long as this fountain remains here,
a part of Lilly will always be here.
513
00:38:20,240 --> 00:38:24,077
And you, her peers,
will always be reminded...
514
00:38:24,619 --> 00:38:29,374
...what a generous, kind,
sweet girl she was...
515
00:38:29,999 --> 00:38:35,338
...and how she embodied Pirate pride
and the school motto:
516
00:38:35,505 --> 00:38:40,135
"Service, loyalty, honor."
517
00:39:50,413 --> 00:39:53,625
Hello, America. You wanted Lilly?
You got her.
518
00:39:53,708 --> 00:39:56,044
Now sit back and enjoy the ride.
519
00:40:08,848 --> 00:40:10,350
Yeah!
520
00:40:29,577 --> 00:40:31,412
You love me, don't you?
521
00:40:51,349 --> 00:40:53,059
Hey, Weev, let's hit it.
522
00:40:53,434 --> 00:40:54,727
Weevil.
523
00:40:56,104 --> 00:41:00,108
Yeah, yeah. That's right, man.
Let's go. The night's young.
524
00:41:10,827 --> 00:41:12,829
Do you mind if we make a stop?
525
00:41:14,664 --> 00:41:18,084
- There's something I need to do.
- I don't think that that's a good idea.
526
00:41:18,209 --> 00:41:21,254
We should probably go right to the dance.
I told your Dad.
527
00:41:30,263 --> 00:41:32,015
You have to stay here.
528
00:41:38,187 --> 00:41:42,025
Don't ask me, man. I stopped
trying to figure her out day one.
