I'd prefer that the S2 arc not be solving the murder of an important Neptunite or someone close to Veronica, because that's too close to Lilly and might feel kind of been-there...
What else could go on? A major theft? A kidnapping? Someone burns down the school? Some scary X-Files-like conspiracy among the powers that be? It would be cool to see something highlighting the town's social bifurcation well another smart call (predictive of what the writers did go on to do) -- like a big company has buried toxic waste in the poor part of town, and people are getting sick, like A Civil Action. It'd be a nice way to get Weevil more involved. And a lot of PI work is done on behalf of lawyers needing evidence for trials.
Of course, it would also be nice to have it be something going on at the school, since they only have one more year left in high school, and then that won't be a plot option anymore. yes and with the bus crash they used the high school setting.

also p4, giving me a flashback to Bethesda outside a toy store Lo~~? where there was a concert maybe by Barbie & the Rockers. by some young girl toy themed group. and ~ a basketball player came up and I made a thing out of how he was so tall I'd thought he was already up on the stage. and someone I was with made an impression on me by stealing wet wipes, or something, opening up a sliding window ~

There was a Jem TV show? Wow. I had a couple Jem dolls, but they disappeared after being shunned by the Barbie Rockers.

Going in the totally opposite direction, I actually don't think she was raped at all. I've thought all along that a date rape drug, like La Anah posted, doesn't knock you out, it makes you more willing or pliable, and you don't remember what happened. If someone gives you a roofie and then has sex with you, yes, you've been raped. But if Logan roofied her because he was drunk and he's an asshole and he didn't really realize the consequences of what he was doing (or didn't care), and then Duncan comes along, also drunk/stoned/etc., and he and Veronica have sex, and she's more or less willing at that point, then she really wasn't raped. And this would explain some of those moments when Duncan acts like he really wants to talk to Veronica about something but then changes his mind.

another good call, V suspecting Logan of killing Lily. search p5 ["despoilered post re why I think Logan replaced Duncan as Rob's intended femme fatale.]
Logan Echolls: Soft Underbelly...Or Rock Hard? » Jump to Post
This is not to say that I think Logan killed Lilly, but I won't be surprised if he becomes a real suspect at some point for Veronica. I don’t know what Logan’s alibi was for the day Lilly was killed, but since the time of death is off, it seems most of the alibis are invalidated, although the only ones that are mentioned specifically are the Kanes’. As I’ve said ad nauseum in another thread, I’m not convinced that either parent could have killed Lilly, at least not intentionally (and I don’t think Rob is going to go for an accidental death here). A parent murdering a teenaged child is a very rare thing, whereas when a women is murdered, her boyfriend or husband is always the prime suspect. Lilly dumped Logan just days before her death, and we know from her own words that Logan was “insanely jealous.” We also know that Logan is prone to impulsive acts of violence, which is something that no other suspect has demonstrated.
I think it could be cool if at the climax of this story, when it all comes to a head in the last episode, Veronica suspects Logan of killing Lilly, and this is the wedge that drives them apart...

I have no idea if Lynn is alive or not, but I'd be hesitant to draw any conclusions based on the confusion about why Trina left Australia and how she ended up with Lynn's clothes and credit cards. This was simply an unavoidable continuity fuck-up in what was orignally a well thought-out storyline: Trina came home for Lynn's funeral; she took the clothes and credit cards and pretended to go back to Australia but instead holed up in LA because she a) is a selfish bitch; and/or b) didn't want Haaron to know that she got fired from the Australia gig.
ok that all does make sense.
But after the storyline was plotted, Alyson Hannigan turned out to be unavailable for the funeral episode, and they chose to write Trina out of it rather than re-cast the role. So it ends up being pretty much impossible to explain how or when Trina got the credit cards. The clothes, on the other hand, she could've stolen months ago, and as for why she would want them, Lynn would have a lot of stylish stuff and designer labels that Trina couldn't afford, since Trina clearly has money issues (hence stealing the credit cards) due to her failed career.
