    When a private website for Neptune High's gay students is hacked, and the members blackmailed, Veronica finds it difficult to track down the culprit when the victims want to remain anonymous. Meanwhile, Hannah finds out Logan's true intentions, and Keith believes he has found an alibi for Terrence.

    I thought the gay students portion of the episode was a little bit of a reach for an episodic episode. I remember something a little like this in season one with a small group being singled out - I just don't think it was the gay group. To tell you the truth I felt Veronica's portion of this episode was the weakest of the three portions.

    Logan is the character that you want to have his own storyline. Hannah being amazingly hot - challenging Kristin Bell hot - also doesn't hurt his cause. I've hated Logan's character ever since 2x02, but the acting job by his character is simply wonderful. Keith continues right where he left off at the end of the last episode (which I am a fan of) with helping Terrence. Veronica finding all of those explosives in the locker was a little bit of a stretch for me though. It's too early in the season for us to be handed the killer randomly like this and we just spent all episode trying to prove his not guilty...ness. We'll see where it goes.

    7.5 Good

    Kylie: I'm a lesbian...
    Veronica: That's cool.
    Kylie: Only when you're in college. hide show

    A season 1-esque episode. An episodic case that was not really related to the overall plot and small advancement in the bus crash investigation.

    Good, but you see, this was probably the weakest effort of the season thus far.But that's saying alot, because, well, this season has been stellar, and the worst episode earns a 7.5? Nice.

    Loved the Logan/Hanna scenes, Logan confronting the doctor was intense. Keith trying to prove Terrance's innocence was also good, and that twist in the end was definitely, well, odd, and contradicts just about everything about Terrance - but probabgly that's why its cool.

    Loved the Jackie / Veronica scenes they seem really nice together. No Weevil or Wallace this time, but it's okay(though the episodic case could've been better with them)

    I thought while the outcome of it(the case) was unpredictable, it was very average. Not bad, not good, just.. average. Mildly entertaining. Veronica's case: 6/10
    Logan's storyline: 9/10
    Terrance: 8/10
    Misc: 8/10

    Overall: 7.5

    Veronica and Jackie bonding, robbing of pizza delivery guys and blackmailing of Neptunes gay students. Intresting! hide show

    An idiot freshman (If I may say so) which hopes one day to become a PCH'er robs pizza delivery guys. One of them; a friend from an earlier episode, Marcos gay "whish he was my boyfriend" He had a list over members of a site, chat room for Neptunes gay students. It ends up with blackmailing.

    Veronica riding with Jackie to Wallaces big game make their friendship ( if you can call it that ) grow, but then Veronica finds explosives in Terrence Cooks locker. Not good. My heart cried a bit under this episode, when Logan and Hannah still is dating. But my heart just jump when they had a fight. I thought this was the end of it, but no

    When Veronica catches the idiot freshman she finds out that he is not the blackmailer. In the end it turnes out; the blackmailer is one of the gay students; Which just died to get out of the closet with her girlfriend. At the end scene when Hannah and Logan walks hand in hand down the hall and Veronica sees them, and understand Logans motives I almost fell of the chair of exitment; And then the end credits. Just canæt wait for next week!

  • When Veronica is talking to Carmen, they are referring to the episode "M.A.D." (1x20) in which Carmen's boyfriend threatens her to unveil a dirty video he made of her. []
  • This is the first time we get a closeup of one of the posters on the wall in Keith's office. It was created by Shepard Fairey. He is better known for his "Andre the Giant has a posse" sticker (Andre's face can be seen in the star at the center of the poster) and created the artwork for The Black Eyed Peas' CD Elephunk.

    The text of the poster is as follows:
    "In lesser gods we trust
    (two lines too small to read)
    OBEY FEDERAL RESERVE
    CASH FOR CHAOS
    PROP. MANUFACTURING
    SUPPLY AND DEMAND
    THIS IS YOUR GOD
    OBEY
    Capitalism without discretion is an ugly religion." []
  • In the first scene, Corny pulls up to the curb and gets out of his car wearing iPod-type headphones. It is illegal to wear headphones while driving in California. []
