1.15: Ruskie Business

A LONG TIME AGO, ON VERONICA MARS: A Russian mail order bride wants Veronica to find her lost love, an actor named Tom Cruz. (Note: NOT Tom Cruise.) Meg Manning wants Veronica to find the identity of her secret admirer - which rich white boy of Neptune could it be?? Logan’s on hotel stakeout in the hopes of finding his mom. Keith is being tailed by two guys in terrible suits. And could one of them lend Logan some pants? Join Jenny Owen Youngs and Helen Zaltzman to investigate Veronica Mars Season 1 Episode 15: Ruskie Business, and probe such mysteries as why Wallace is STILL unable to resist doing favours for Veronica when said favours earn him a reputation as a jockstrap-sniffer, whether Veronica just has a stack of bridezilla props ready to go, and whether we’d rather go to prom with “some kid with that high school kid look” or a trashcan with boobs.
