Probably cryptic foreshadowing. There hasn’t been any Sally on the show that I remember, and I checked a few other message boards with some VM traffic and no one else knew what it was about either.

I thought the bitchy teacher was way over-the-top bitchy, and I’m glad to see she got nailed and wouldn’t be around to be bitchy all the time.

Hannah looked really young to be paired up with Logan. Like she was an _actual_ teenager, or something.

What intrigued me most with this episode, though, was the principal’s poker face. I mean, by now this guy knows better than to think that Veronica Mars would have stolen the money and left an obvious trail back to herself. He knows somebody’s tried to burn her, and whoever it was will pay. That understanding, by the way, alluded the bitchy teacher, who clearly did not know with whom she was fucking. The principal is not on Veronica’s side, but aside from the pragmatic angle that he knew she’d be useful for clearing up this mess, I figured he also enjoyed watching a trademark Veronica Mars payback unfold. Maybe I’m projecting.

Yeah hi, I’ve never met you and you have no reasonable expectation of safety, but would you meet someone other than me (who by the way is a minor) in a high school parking lot for purposes of springing your cock on him so that he’s humiliated in front of his friends?

Well, yeah. Apart from the odd transvestite hooker who’s just in it for laughs, most people in that profession are in it as an occupation. And if you offer people enough money, I’ll bet they’d agree to be in on the joke. I in no way expect this to be something that s/he got only her standard rate for…

Yep, lots o’ money floating around Neptune. The he/she has probably done worse for a few bucks.

I still think the spitting is indicative.

You may have more experience with trannie hookers than I do, but my admittedly small knowledge base tells me that they tend to value their safety just enough that the setup _as it’s presented in the ep_ is so potentially unsafe that they wouldn’t participate. In a hotel room or private home, sure, she’d go along with the joke. But the scenario as presented has so much potential danger that I doubt she’d do it.

Just how dumb do you think Dick is? Maybe he’s self-confessed “uncomplicated” but I don’t seem him accidentally giving a blow job. He’s spitting because he “kissed a dude”.
