TEXT: EXT - HEARST COLLEGE - DAY. Under a grey sky, Veronica makes her way across the campus. A large banner is set up: "Rally Against Violence Towards Women - Take Back the Night - 4pm at Johnson Lawn - All are welcome to attend - Let's Stand United!" Veronica passes under it. VERONICA VOICEOVER: Here it is. First day of college. What do you say, Veronica? New school, fresh start. Veronica glances over at three girls, securing one end of the banner. VERONICA VOICEOVER: How 'bout you try not to piss anyone off this time around. Veronica heads for the entrance in the main building. DR. LANDRY: [offscreen] Welcome to college... INT - HEARST COLLEGE - DAY. On a screen at the front of a lecture theatre are the words "Intro to Criminology." A man walks forward from the lectern next to it. DR. LANDRY:...where it's okay to skip class. Just not mine. The students titter appreciatively. A girl sitting behind Veronica leans forward, gazing dreamily at the professor. CATHY: Skip class? I'm gonna staple myself to the floor. Veronica growls in agreement. DR. LANDRY: Before we dive in, I've been asked to plug the Criminology Department's mentoring program. We work with at risk kids here in Neptune. Our philosophy is that it's better to prevent crimes through intervention than be forced to solve them later. My teaching assistant... Landry extends his arm in the direction of a young man sitting at the front of the room, facing the students. The young man, the spitting image of Lucky from Season Two, but in a shaggy wig, stands. DR. LANDRY:...Timothy Foyle, will take the names of those who would like to volunteer. Timothy gives a small bow. Landry quickly moves on, pointing a remote over his shoulder at the screen behind him. DR. LANDRY:
SUMMARY:
The fall term at Hearst College starts and Veronica and Logan are dating. Veronica is still living at home, and Mac and Wallace each have roommates. Wallace's roommate Piz asks Veronica to recover his stolen possessions. Veronica sneaks into Parker and Mac's darkened room to retrieve an item, and successfully avoids disturbing what she thinks is consensual sex. Parker later awakens from her drugged stupor to find her head shaved, and Veronica is horrified to realize she unintentionally allowed Parker to be raped.
