You Veronica Mars fans out there might hate me for this but I have to say it; I found the episode very anti-climactic. I don’t know if it was only me, but the cult storyline could have been better handled. It felt as if it shouldn’t have been in the episode. There was no danger, there was no mystery. Veronica went in, did her thing, and came out. She learnt there was nothing wrong with the place and she left. That sort of pissed me off. I was not satisfied.

          The Mooncalf Collective cult were just good people. They loved each other. I’m all for this “love your neighbor” ideal because I wish real life was like that. However, I kept feeling disappointed. Hollie told Veronica to stay away from the barn. It turns out a horse lives inside. Then, they were building up this huge mystery revolving around the secret crops. They turn out to be poinsettias. The cultists are trying to have them grown by Christmas. It did remind me of Christmas and that’s a good thing. I don’t think I hated the actual cult; I think I hated the way they were presented. When the writers build something up, it should deliver.

          I loved the scene with the waterbed. Keith tries so hard to make Veronica happy. The poor guy found the waterbed at a yard sale for $10. He knew Veronica always wanted one so he got her one. He’s a great dad. It’s the little things that are big things. Personally, I get sick when I’m on one of those beds. I feel like I’m drowning. I’m weird. What do you want from me?

          What do you think? Is Keith Veronica’s dad? I say yes. Deep down inside, Veronica knows he’s her dad. She doesn’t care if Jake Kane’s her biological father, she wants her daddy. I keep thinking of Keith’s favorite line: “Who’s your daddy?” I crack up every time. When Veronica through the test results in the shredder, I knew her love was thicker than blood. Wow, I’m poetic. If Keith had suspicions, would he read the test results, or would he shred them away? This is an interesting topic. Is a father’s point of view different than a daughter’s? My head’s spinning by just thinking of this. This is for sure going to pop up again.

Some Final Notes

-          No Logan or Weevil.

-          Relax.

I was not crazy about this episode. It was good, but it wasn’t great. It was underwhelming. 2 out of 5 stars.
