S01.E13: Lord of the Bling

[Lisin]

From IMDB:"After a wealthy music producer's daughter goes missing, Veronica almost bites off more than she can chew in her attempt to find her old friend. Meanwhile, Logan finds it difficult to show the proper emotions at his mother's wake."

Logan is just breaking my heart here.

Logan is just breaking my heart here.

God, does he. This is an episode that totally brought me over to the Logan dark-side. Part of me still hopes that Lynn Echolls shows up eventually, if not in the movie, then in the books or other future spinoffs.

Also enjoyed Anthony Anderson as the producer, pretending to be the big tough guy, while basically pretending to the thug's life.

Ugh I know! I'm still living with hope for Lynn Echolls! Even though her showing up would just break poor Logan all over again (as if he's fixed).

Anthony Anderson was GREAT! I always like him. Part of what makes this rewatch so much fun for me is seeing all the people who were on this show!

"We used to be friends. A long time ago."

Poor Yolanda. Seeing a dark side of the Lilly gang in flashback here, though it is kind of understandable on her part too.

Liked the utterly confused hotel employee when Veronica steps in as the customer experience manager or whatever.

It's 2005 alert: "She can see you. The pinhole at the tip of the screen is a camera."

I always appreciate the flashbacks showing us that the gang wasn't perfect, they were just as much the assholes we see today but our protagonist hadn't realized how awful they were because she was on the inside at the time, I also like the showing that they were dicks, but they were also friends, which on the one hand makes Logan worse, but on the other hand it makes him more understandable. His girlfriend was murdered and for better or worse Veronica's father made that pain hurt more for some of her friends and they're pissed she didn't take their side. Knowing what we know it's easy to see why she didn't, but from their perspective she sold them out to take her father's "wrong" side.

Yeah, definitely working on the Logan redemption here, and showing that Veronica wasn't always so nice herself.  Logan definitely needs some counseling.
