[edit] Plot
Veronica investigates a hit-and-run involving a green Barracuda that killed a classmate's dog.
[edit] Arc significance
- Keith discovers that, if Beaver and Dick die simultaneously, Kendall stands to receive more than eight figures.
- Veronica confronts Weevil about his possible involvement in the bus crash. She suggests that he intended to blow up the limo, but the bomb accidentally ended up on the bus instead. Weevil was close enough to the limo to know when it was approaching the cliff, and that he could have detonated the bomb with his phone without her knowing.
- Kendall was with Logan on the day of the crash, but kicked him out "before the sheets were dry," meaning she could have made the call that set off the bomb.
- Someone in a green Barracuda owned by Liam's maternal grandmother mooned Gia in the limo just minutes before the bus crash.
- Woody called Gia minutes before the bus crash to make sure she'd be able to pick up her brother, Rodney, from his piano lesson.
- Kendall is not who she claims to be. Actually named Priscilla Banks, she killed the real Kendall Shiflett and two others in a car crash. She also owns her own house in Neptune.
- Liam's brother, Cormac, was Kendall's partner-in-crime — they were con artists, and Kendall took the rap for him, serving six months for wire fraud. The Fitzpatricks owe Kendall.
- Weevil helps the P.C.H.ers get out from underneath the Fitzpatricks' thumb by threatening to publicize the license plate numbers from Thumper's paddle.
- Construction workers find one of Aaron Echolls' Oscar statues buried on Kane property — covered with Lily's blood and Duncan's hair.

- "Dame Esa Cosa (Give Me That Thing)" - Rene Brizuela
