The internet based plagiarism detection service used to detect plagiarism at Hearst College is similar to TurnItIn.com, a plagiarism site universities and colleges around the world use to detect cheating on papers and reports. The site Max uses to search for Veronica's paper, www.universitysavior.com, is fictitious and the domain is owned by and redirects to Warner Bros.
When Mercer introduces himself to Parker, she doesn't reply with her name, and yet as she leaves, he says, "Nice meeting you, Parker."
When Piz throws the bowling ball the first time, you can see it's headed straight for the left gutter. It doesn't have a spin (nor does he seem the type who could put a spin on it), yet somehow it ends up in the middle of the lane to knock eight pins down.
Logan: Uh, darling, what size are those dainty feet that I love so much?
Veronica: Six.
Wallace: So, you figure out what was up with that plagiarism thing?
Veronica: As a matter of fact, a paper just like mine was posted online by roryfinch@hearstcollege.org. A Hearst email, but there's never been a student by that name. The address was set up three days ago from an IP address at... get this... the Neptune Grand.
Wallace: After you turned in your paper.
Veronica: Um-hm.
Wallace: So, you're off the hook. It's over.
Veronica: Ah, my innocent and naive Wallace. When I find out who did this, and I make them sing like the proverbial fat lady, that's when it's over.
Veronica: Just, Mac's had this project all week and Parker's all alone. I think we should invite her along.
Logan: Um, how very Emma of you.
Veronica: Did you just make a Jane Austen reference? It's official, the end of days are upon us.
Veronica: Parker thought you were cool. And also cute.
Piz: Oh, huh. Well... oh.
Veronica: Oh, what?
Piz: I mean, no, she's really nice, it's... but she's not really my type.
Veronica: Oh. You have a type.
Piz: Yeah, kinda. And it's not her.
Parker: Ya-hoo! That's two-thirds of a turkey, bitches! Ah, you're in a deep hole, Piznarski. We're going to totally humiliate you, but, you know, no pressure.
Logan: Refreshments?
Piz: Ten martinis.
Parker: I can't believe you invite me out for the first time since I was...raped on some cheesy, double date set-up with that Piz guy.
Veronica: It's not a set-up, I swear.
Parker: Size seven, but this is not fun.
Keith: He sounds like a hell of a guy.
Veronica: Not only is he smart, but he's the biggest gun in the department, so him offering to be my advisor, it's just...
Keith: Yeah, I'm not surprised. But I wish you would consult with me before you start phasing me out of your life.
Veronica: Dad.
Keith: He's smart, huh? Is he smarter than your old man?
Veronica: You know, actually, you two have a lot in common. You'd like him.
Keith: Can I take him in a fight? Be honest.
Professor Hank Landry: The whole of human knowledge, right there online, and these papers are thin. Am I crazy to expect better? And if you're confused as to what better is, let me direct you to the front where I've posted our only example of A-caliber work. Nice job, Miss Mars.
Veronica: (voiceover) Well, this should make me popular.
Jeff: I've worked here two years. You've seen me a hundred times, but you don't notice the little people, 'cause you're too busy lounging with Captain Moneybags, here.
Logan: That's Admiral Moneybags.
Jeff: I trust the steak's to your liking.
Logan: Always.
Jeff: Goodnight, then.
Logan: Well, that's my girl, spreading sunshine wherever she goes.
Veronica: That boy doesn't know it yet, but he's the living dead.
Veronica: No more fun. Too exhausting.
Logan: Yeah. Next time we'll get in some weight training before we bowl.
Veronica: Just the soap opera. Parker wants me to find out if Piz likes her. What do I do? Pass a note? Scribble it on his Trapper Keeper?
Veronica: Hey, do you want to go bowling tomorrow night?
Logan: Sure. Unless it's some critical analysis of bowling seminar, then I...
Winkler: Mr. Fennel. I was under the impression you dropped the class.
Wallace: I said I'd think about it.
Winkler: You sure this is a smart choice?
Wallace: Probably not. But you've seen my standardized test scores. I'm not a particularly smart guy, right?
(Knock knock knock…)
Veronica: Wallace?
Wallace: Not here.
Veronica: And you would be?
Wallace: Evil Wallace. And I know Veronica Mars doesn't hang with the evil and morally bankrupt.
Tim: You think it's me? You think I'm trying to get you out of Landry's class because I don't like you?
Veronica: Wait, you don't like me?
Veronica: You're going on a date with a married woman.
Keith: It's not a date. We saw a movie, had a drink, and talked.
Veronica: Which is a date.
Keith: When did crappy old shirts with stupid stuff on them become cool?
Veronica: I don't know why I ask you these things.
Keith: I don't either frankly.
Ryan Hansen (Dick), Tina Majorino (Mac) and Francis Capra (Weevil) don't appear in this episode despite being in the opening credits.
Music:
"Say About Me" by Starball
"Prince of Wands" by Douglas Armour
"I'm Not in Love" by 10cc
Veronica: Okay. You're Rocky. Mechanical engineering is Mr. T. "Eye of the Tiger" is playing.
Veronica uses the plot keys of the 1982 movie Rocky III to motivate Wallace on taking on his mechanical engineering studies. Mr. T was the title character's boxing opponent in this movie and Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger" accompanies 'Rocky' while training for their rematch after losing their first fight. Wallace doing a mechanical engineering comeback after his cheating, being a easy comparison to Sylvester Stallone's character in the third installment of the Rocky series.
Max: This must be a real Kafkaesque experience for you.
Reference to writer Franz Kafka (1883-07-03 – 1924-06-03). More specifically to the novel (and later movies) The Trial, in which the main character awakens one morning and, for reasons never revealed, is arrested and subjected to the judicial process for an unspecified crime.
Keith: It's great talking to someone for whom 'bogart' isn't a verb.
Humphrey Bogart is the actor playing private eye Sam Spade in the movie The Maltese Falcon (1941) that Keith and Harmony just saw.
The verb to bogart means to bully someone into doing something against their will, or to refuse sharing something.
When at the bowling alley, the banner above the lanes says "The Big Lebowlski," referring to the (often quoted) movie The Big Lebowski.
Episode Title: Hi, Infidelity
A play on REO Speedwagon's 1980 album Hi Infidelity (1980). It contained the hits "Take it on the Run" and "Keep on Loving You."
