TWoP 2.20 Look Who's Stalking recap Grand Misery p11 (5th act):
Veronica then finds a disheveled-looking Logan, and I don't blame him for ditching his jacket and loosening his tie, but the fact that his hair is standing up like first-season David Silver on 90210 suggests that maybe a quick touch-up in the bathroom is in order. Logan notes that Veronica's alone, and says he knows the feeling. Veronica doesn't cotton on to his desperation at first, although you'd think that's a setting of his with which she's pretty familiar. After a comment about how he can have his pick of the bimbos, they fall silent for a few moments, which is enough for the Squee-Meter to tick up to 9 and start spritzing itself. Veronica sits down on a desk and says she loves "really likes" the song that's playing, which is Mike Doughty's "I Hear The Bells." Logan, after taking a moment to try to pull himself together through his sadness and inebriation, straddles the desk facing her, and tells her he's surprised: "As a keen observer of the human condition, I thought you saw through people better than that." with lots of wristy gestures mmm. Logan tells her that he's not into bimbos anymore, which seems like a perfect time to point out that this behavior makes total sense from him at this point. Hannah represented his first happy time since Veronica, and was the only girl since Veronica whose opinion of Logan mattered to him. Hannah was taken from him; therefore, he seeks to recapture those feelings with Veronica. Anyway, Logan says that he's been into torture you know - tortured - ever since he got his heart broken. Veronica, getting to the point where she's being willfully blasé, notes that Hannah did really did do a number on Logan, but Logan corrects her that he's not talking about Hannah, and after the realization dawns on Veronica's face, Logan tells her that he thought their story was "epic." Somewhere, Lilly is all, "Epic? I'm the one who got her brains bashed in, HELLO!"yeah good point this crossed my mind also Logan drunkenly babbles you know, epic: spanning years, continents. bloodshed, lives ruined - EPIC. about bloodshed and lives being ruined and their romance spanning continents and years. Tell it to Dawn Ostroff, kid. heh. He takes an emotional beat, and then says that summer's almost there, and then they won't see each other anymore. Veronica goes through about a thousand different emotions, as the import of Logan's words starts to hit her, and he emotionally apologizes for the previous summer I'm sorry-- about last summer, and starts to imply that hey'd do it all over differently. Veronica tries to deflect him with an offhand comment about how relationships shouldn't be this hard, but he's undeterred No one writes songs about the ones that come easy, and keeps sliding closer to her. They look into each other's eyes, I love how she looks away and scared and breathes a sigh and Veronica reluctantly allows Logan to touch her face. When he moves in for a kiss, though, it's too much, and she's out the door, as Logan's eyes fill, and the Squee-Meter opts for an epic ending of its own by jumping out my window.
..p12..Amazing scene. I have no particular desire to see a romantic relationship between these two, if only because I don't think it brings their most interesting scenes, although it could also be because I still think Logan is a douchebag. But the actors' chemistry is undeniable, and that scene allowed them to show off some of their best work.
p13. Neptune Grand. Veronica gets to Logan's door, hesitates, and then knocks. A shirtless Logan answers the door, and for fans of this relationship, I'd suggest using the pause button to enjoy this moment while you can. Veronica apologizes for running out on him, saying that she needed time to collect her thoughts. Ignoring Logan's warning of "Veronica...," she tells him that she wants to make a point of seeing him over the summer. Logan manages to combine a blank stare with a heartbroken expression. Veronica, in the harsh light of day, realizes the meaning of his expression, and her face falls apart, too, as Logan explains that "last night was kind of a blur." Veronica, unable to hold back the tears, makes her escape over Logan's half-hearted attempt to apologize. As they wait for the elevator doors to close, they stare at each other for about a million years, although I doubt that's part of the epic Logan had mentally scripted.
