All through this episode we saw the clues that Wendy isn’t really who she claims, and she’s really the one-dimensional thief that you’d expect her to be, but when her and Max didn’t work because of their own differences, it hurt a lot more than if she flat out cheated him. Now Max has to try a lot harder to hate her; how can he hate someone who really did love him? I'm not sure if Max was originally intended to be re-orientated into the series late on this season, but he's really likable here.
It was obvious that Veronica and Logan’s reunion was a flat out failure, too. Not just because of Madison’s involvement with him, but you could tell that all of the problems that lead to their break-up in the first place were still there. The most prominent fault being Veronica’s complete distrust of Logan. Even though she knew that the truth can’t always be what she wants it to be, she has to keep digging anyway. After all, it’s part of who she is.
Dean O’Dell’s murder investigation still remains firmly under Keith’s control and, to be honest, I kind of like it that way. Let’s give him a chance to come out and play. And if that opportunity to take the spotlight away from Ronnie means more Keith/Lamb banter, then I’m all for it.
Despite the fact that this episode felt like another shipper-dedicated shrine at times, it worked a lot better than it had any right to.
8/10
