VMI 2.16 The Rapes of Graff

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS: • It’s the return of two of our season 1 least faves: sex crimes, and TROY. • Veronica’s not pleased to see him either, but does agree to help him when he’s accused of raping a Hearst College student and shaving her head. • This entails infiltrating a frat house, which seems like the worst place in the world? • Meanwhile Cliff has been handcuffed to a bed by a sex worker and had his briefcase stolen, full of evidence about Logan’s murder case. • And Sheriff Lamb and Madison Sinclair are hooking up?? Two wrongs do make a... wrong! Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars season 2 episode 16: The Rapes of Graff, and consider such mysteries as why you would drunkenly puke into Helen’s mother’s boots, how does Veronica print out photos in the brief moment between scenes, and would you rather: Sheriff Lamb or Dick Casablancas? OK fine, you don’t have to make that satanic choice, unlike Madison Sinclair. Content note: Veronica Mars contains heavy themes, and this episode includes storylines concerning drug- and alcohol-assisted rape.
