Rewatch: The Wrath of Con!

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

1x04 "The Wrath of Con" is one of my favorite, favorite episodes. I can't decide what I love more: Veronica in full nerd-chick gear, incredibly revealing and well-acted flashback scenes, tons and tons of Wallace, an amazing showdown with the culprits behind the Mystery of the Week, Veronica's Amber voice, KEITH MEETING TROY ... I just could go on. And on. And on. But nothing I say will ever top the greatness of the episode itself, so you might as well just rewatch it. TONIGHT!!!! :D

I know.... I love it when Keith meets Troy. Too funny!

:DDD I'm glad someone else fangirls that scene like I do. "I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing." "Neither do I. HAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Oh, Keith. <3

I lurve this episode! It's so Alias-esque! I like that the actor is also starring as Hamm in "Endgame".

Although after seeing how pretty Amanda Seyfried can be with her hair down, I wish they hadn't pulled Lilly's hair up for her prom. But that's just me being shallow.

Alias-esque ... I never thought about it that way before. I love Alias, but VM occupies a far vaster space in my heart. Anyway. :P

Was "Endgame" the Beckett play? CLEARLY I am uncultured and uneducated.

Hee, I think we're all shallow when it comes to Lilly. <3 I loved her in that dress. But you're right that she looks great with her hair down ... I love the double-braids, personally.

I can't remember what happens in this episode!! (I remember the prom part, but not the present-day storyline.) So I guess I'll enjoy it. :)

[ninamazing.livejournal.com]

Both storylines are kickass. So, yes. :)

The second Wallace's girlfriend showed up I remembered the plot! I love the episode! I can't believe that Veronica has a father who helps her be a super detective. :)

I KNOW! KEITH IS SO MY FAVORITE PERSON EVER! (Who has a DEA jacket just lying around? Keith, apparently. :P )

Georgia (Wallace's girlfriend) is so sweet. I was so sad when he started dating other people. AND THEY NEVER EXPLAIN IT! If there's one problem with this show, it's Not Enough Wallace.

I know! UPN had an issue with wanting more diversity on VM, and then they wouldn't pay to have Wallace in every episode! (I can't find a link to back this up, but I remember reading it online back when I got into the show during the summer of 2005.)
