It just went straight off the cliff. Veronica freaks out in Duncan's suite in 203 "Cheatty Cheatty Bang Bang." VERONICA: The bus crash, it was meant for me. At home, Veronica plays Keith the message Rhonda left for Michelle that she discovered in 205 "Blast from the Past." VERONICA: It's a voice mail from one of the students who died in the crash. She called just as the bus went over. RHONDA: Hey, about next weekend... VERONICA: The bus was sabotaged. KEITH: If that sound is an explosion, not only were those kids murdered, but the guilty party is still at large. End previouslies. DREAM: INT - BUS.
