[edit] Plot

When Veronica is arrested for selling fake IDs, she has to figure out who set her up and whether it was a secret society in Neptune High. Veronica bugs the guidance office to listen in on the grief counseling sessions for the people closest to Lilly. Aaron Echolls also hires Keith to find out who is giving him bad publicity.

[edit] Arc significance

  • During Ms. James' grief counselling sessions, Logan confesses that he and Lilly were broken up when she died and it was because Veronica saw him kissing someone else.
  • Weevil also confesses, during a grief counselling session, that he had secretly dated Lilly, but she had gone back to Logan.
  • During Duncan's session, he says that he blacked out for three days after Lilly's murder and can't remember anything about it. He mentions his medication leading Veronica to wonder about what is wrong with him.
  • After Aaron finds out his wife, Lynn, was the one giving him bad press, he threatens her with divorce. Later, her car shows up on a bridge and it is implied that she committed suicide.

Veronica: Play on her insecurity.

Veronica: Hi, Dad. Their case is fuzzy and circumstantial.
Keith: [to Cliff McCormack] You know the odd thing? Those were also her first words.
