1. Echolls Poker Game. we get to meet all the guys. had Duncan, Logan and Weevil, not to mention Veronica kicking their butts in poker.
2. Betty and Veronica. we get to meet students outside Neptune. Pan high seems very cool - so is that Richie.
3. Purity Test. introducing of new character Mac - good character soon becomes recurring one.
Bomb threat is not far behind. I thought Norris was a good character. (yeh, I know LoVe kiss. didn't forget (as a LoVe shipper), but shouldn't let bias overtake - Norris was cool.)
Wrath of Con would have to be the most boring one. though - PURE OWNAGE for all the computer geeks out there. lol. that was fun, and Veronica in an almost S4-Syd alias. even the boring episodes have some good in them.
