Things that confuse me
Okay, so it's still Veronica Mars related, but LOST has really stumbled creatively lately and BSG doesn't start up again until late in the summer so I'm left with additional time to ruminate, in a non cow-like way of course. lol
Some questions left over from the finale. Please feel free to chime in you have thoughts/answers/explanations.
How did Aaron manage to find Veronica's car so easily? Is he that conversant with the automobile choices of Logan's circle of friends?
What was in that stupid spy pen?
And while we're in the epistle vein, what happened to the Logan's letter to Lilly?
Was poor little Marisol Reyes just a sad coincidence?
Will Celeste be booked on obstruction of justice as well? What about good old Clarence?
Is Veronica eligible for the reward money originally put up for information leading to the arrest of Lilly's murderer? Or would her signing the contract giving up any future claim on the Kane estate negate that?
Where is Backup? He was at the crime scene, but Keith and Veronica are taken to the hospital and I'm doubting the EMT's let him hitch a ride. Is the mystery person at the door really Aw Shucks Deputy Leo bringing the beast back?
What's on that third tape that Lilly stole from the pool house?
Did we ever know definitively (ie from a source other than Veronica's reconstruction of the crime) what the muder weapon actually was?
Has Wallace's little brother disappeared off the face of the earth?
I've seen lots of passionate defense of Veronica's decision to turn Logan in without confronting him because of the potential physical danger she was in. Yet, over the course of the season we've seen her seek out a personal confrontation with Jake, who her father thought was at least involved in the murder if not the actual murderer, and we've seen her alone on several occasions with Duncan, who Veronica also suspected. Why would Logan be considered any more dangerous than other potential suspects? Her interactions with Logan were in public places. That inequity disturbs me.
Finally, would you really want to revisit a relationship with a guy who's admitted that he had sex with you while he was under the impression that you were siblings?

I'm inclined to think that she was thrown in there as a red herring, and also as a little social commentary on the state of affairs in Neptune (and likely the real world, unfortunately).

I don't know about Clarence, but it's possible that Jake might take the fall for the family and say that Celeste and Duncan knew nothing about it (which in Duncan's case is true of course).
As for the Logan thing, I don't know if you'll consider this a good defense, but I would argue that as she was confronting Jake about something unrelated to the murder, and as she didn't intend to reveal to Duncan that she considered him a suspect, that those are different cases than with Logan. Even though Jake was a murder suspect in her eyes, he's probably not going to kill her for accusing him of something unrelated, though he might if he was a murderer and thought that she could prove it. And she didn't think that Duncan killed Lilly intentionally, or that he even knew if he had done it. It's maybe a little risky seeking out somebody who might be prone to violent episodes, but she didn't have any reason to think that merely talking to him would trigger it, and she didn't know when she went to talk to him that he was aware of her investigation. It wouldn't have been smart to tell Logan that she suspected him of murder, because if he really had done it then knowing that she suspected would have made her a direct target, which I don't think is the case in her confrontations with Jake and Duncan. I'm not saying that those confrontations were the best idea, but I do see them as being different. And if she really did think that Logan could be the killer, well she probably would have been safe enough hanging out with him if she didn't let on that she suspected him, but she wasn't exactly in the state of mind to be able to be around him and act like that nothing had happened.

Ew, no. I mean I like Duncan, but still. No. I do think that relationship will be explored at some point, though. But ew.

I can see your point regarding Jake, but I still find her decision to seek out Duncan as being inherently riskier than dealing with Logan. If you knew that someone has definitely had one violent outburst that they apparently don't remember and you suspect that they might have had another in which they killed their sibling, I would think that you'd limit stress-inducing contact.
It's interesting to note that Duncan is really the only character (besides Aaron) who has been physically agressive towards Veronica. (I don't really count Felix, because he can never quite get to her.) I'm hoping that they don't set up a big triangle with Veronica, Logan, and Duncan next year, but it would't surprise me if they do. I'm thinking that the expectation is that Veronica will need to get closure on her relationship with Duncan on her own terms. Although, as a viewer, I really can't get past the fact that he slept with her even though he believed she was his sister. Plus, he's still potentially violent. But, that doesn't seem to register with most of the episode reactions that I've read.
