Veronica Mars · Season 1
Another big Friday night. You got plans?
I don't know. I might take Backup for a run or rent a movie, maybe.
Hey, congratulations. You are officially Neptune High's most boring person.
Did I mention the movie might be PG-13?
Oh, jump back, wild child!
What about you, Wallace? Your life still a non-stop Nelly video?
Hey, at least I want my life to be a non-stop Nelly video.
I gotta run. The counselor wants to see me before class.
About what?
Uh, my schedule and my attitude, not necessarily in that order. Her words.
Can I help you with something?
Uh, yeah. The counselor stuck me in here. [Ms. Dent walks over to take informational papers from her] She says I'm disconnected and passionless.
Ms. Dent?
Caitlin?
I'm gonna go down to the gym to talk to people for the student poll.
Be back by the end of the period. And remember that we're a multicultural school with a diverse population of students from a wide range of socio-economic backgrounds.
Meaning?
Meaning don't just interview your friends.
I printed out the entire browser history from Logan Echolls's computer in his fourth period computer lab class.
So is he guilty?
Well, of wanting desperately to see pictures of Alyssa Milano naked, yes.
Flat?
Just as God made me.
Are you always this persnickety?
Sometimes I'm even persnicketier.
[voiceover] They gave me a choice. I could stand by my dad, or stand by Duncan and my dead best friend's family. I chose Dad. It's a decision I live with every day. And you want to know the kicker? I don't even know what's true anymore. Maybe everyone else is right. Maybe Dad screwed up the investigation. Maybe I gave up my circle of friends - my life - over an error in Dad's judgment.
Well a wise man once said that a 'No' is like a 'Yes' except with different letters and arranged in a different order and spoken out loud but, you know, it disappears on the wind.
Guess what I'm doing this weekend.
I'm guessing it involves autoeroticism.
Have you been playing nice with the other children?
You know Dad, I'm old school, an eye for an eye.
I think that's actually Old Testament.
Hi, sir. Wallace Fennel.
[proudly] Wallace is a friend of mine. [Veronica performs a martial arts gesture with her hands.] Take that, high school guidance counselor.
So how did she rope you into this?
She promised me all the answer keys to... Just promised to be my friend.
I'd have held out for a better offer.
You called your geometry teacher a jackass?
That's totally taken out of context. Let me see it.
Let me see your phone.
What are you doing?
[He adds his phone number to her phone.]
It is now booty-call enabled.
It's just that I never want you to think your mom's the villain in all this.
Isn't she?
No, it's not that simple.
Yeah, it is. The hero is the one that stays and the villain is the one that splits.
I don't think that's a healthy perspective.
It's healthier than me pining away everyday, praying she'll come home.
[voiceover] Tragedy blows through your life like a tornado, uprooting everything, creating chaos. You wait for the dust to settle, and then you choose. You can live in the wreckage and pretend it's still the mansion you remember. Or you can crawl from the rubble and slowly rebuild. Because after disaster strikes, the important thing is that you move on. But if you're like me, you just keep chasing the storm. (pause) The problem with chasing the storm is that it wears you down, breaks your spirit. Even the experts agree, a girl needs closure.
