VMI 2.09 My Mother, The Fiend

A LONG TIME AGO ON VERONICA MARS: ● After 1½ seasons about daddies, we get an episode about mothers! ● Veronica investigates whether her own mom, Lianne, was the high school mean girl. ● She also investigates whether, 25 years ago, mean girl for life Celeste Kane gave birth on prom night and dumped the baby in the school bathroom. ● And all this leads to Trina Echolls, Logan’s adopted sister, discovering who her biological mom is.  ● Veronica herself has to practice being a mother, as a school assignment forces her to take care of a robot baby… ● But brewing up a real, actual, non-robot baby is...Meg!??! And she’s waking from her coma???!!!!!
