Veronica: Dad... look at this. I guess Dr. Landry asked Dean O'Dell to write me a recommendation letter for the internship at the FBI.
Keith: "Dear Sir, in my twenty-five years working in academia, I have not come across a young person with more initiative, intelligence, and character than Veronica Mars. I enthusiastically recommend her and would be happy to discuss this remarkable young woman in greater detail. Sincerely, Cyrus O'Dell, Dean of Students, Hearst College."
Veronica: I would have settled for, "I find her nosiness charming."
Keith: Man had good taste. Let's honor him by putting his killer behind bars.
Veronica: Agreed. edit »
(Veronica and Jeff join Logan and Heather for an elevator ride.)
Jeff: Getting in?
Veronica: Hi.
Logan: Hey.
Veronica: Is that my shirt?
Logan: Yeah, she was out of clothes.
Veronica: Oh.
Heather: It's her. It's her!
Logan: No.
Heather: It's her, isn't it? Oh, my God! Tell her!
Logan: Shh.
Heather: Tell her how you feel.
Logan: Shut up.
Heather: Excuse me, Miss Veronica? Yeah, were you listening to super hits 98? 'Cause there was just this dedication.
Veronica: Yeah, I, um, heard it.
Heather: Well, it's true. Logan's sorry, and he misses you. And he wants you back. And you two should get back together because he totally loves-
Logan: This is our floor.
Jeff: Trouble in paradise? edit »
Josh: I told the sheriff. He didn't care. No one believes me. You believe me, don't you?
Veronica: At Mars Investigations, believing our clients is just one of the many services we offer. Is there anything I can get you?
Josh: I don't know. Something to read, cookies, peanut butter if possible, a hacksaw.
Veronica: I can do reading materials, but the sheriff personally inspects all the food, and it rarely makes it back to the intended inmate. edit »
Wallace: You doing okay? With the Logan situation, I mean?
Veronica: I've been trying really hard not to think about it, so... thanks for bringing it up. edit »
Dick: Hey, buddy. Got a question for you. You know a good lawyer?
Logan (refering to Cliff): I know a lawyer. edit »

Dick: People walk in, they don't think 'This little clean area is Dick's, and the hidden bottles of urine are Logan's.' They think 'Silence of the Lamb's basement.'
This allusion references both millionaire turned recluse Howard Hughes and serial killer Buffalo Bill (Silence of the Lambs). edit »
The book containing the peanut butter cookies that Veronica gave the murder guy's son in prison was "The Count Of Monte Cristo". This book is about a man sent to prison for a murder his so-called friend committed. When the Count finds out about this he breaks out of jail and sets out to get revenge. edit »

The Bottom Line: "Series classic"
This is how Veronica Mars should look like - a murder, which she investigates. Less romantic plots (finally) and more intense... Great job actually. ;) ...Continue »
