Episode Quotes

Cindy 'Mac' Mackenzie: Wow... this is one trashed lab. All it's missing is a big hole in the wall shaped like the Hulk.

Dick Casablancas: So what... You're just going to mope around like the guy in... What's that book when the guy's mom dies and he comes back to Jersey? And he's got that motorcycle sidecar?
Logan Echolls: Garden State was never a book.
Dick Casablancas: It wasn't? Oops... So much for that paper. But, if this were a book, the theme of my essay would be the symbolism of how your character had his man parts ripped off by the Veronica Mars character.
Logan Echolls: My man parts are intact.
Dick Casablancas: Show me.
Logan Echolls: You're going to have to take my word for it.
Dick Casablancas: I mean symbolically. We're young, single men in our sexual prime. And the only reason we're not out there going hog wild is because of your feelings? What are we on The View? Am I Rosie O'Donnell?

Professor McGregor: The only way to conclusively prove test results is through an autopsy.
Veronica Mars: So that monkey good life includes a blindfold and a last smoke?
