Season 3 / Episode 14: - Mars, Bars

Keith: [Veronica is in jail] Please tell me you didn't help an accused murderer escape jail.
Veronica: Yo Pops, check it out. This girl ain't gonna be nobody's bitch. You better recognize.
Keith: [re: a fake tattoo] What's that on your arm?
Veronica: I've had some free time. And, no, I didn't help Josh escape - not intentionally. Turns out he's allergic to peanuts. His plan was to take advantage of my kindness.
Keith: That's gotta be the first time that's worked for anybody.
Veronica: [Cliff McCormack walks in] Clifford, something wrong?
Cliff McCormack: I've just remembered I need to return "Caged Heat" to the video store. You folks wanna hear the good news or the bad news first?
Keith: I'm gonna say the good news.
Cliff McCormack: Josh's cellmate and key witness to the Cookie Incident ate the evidence and, icing on the cake, blew a .21 on the breathalizer when they booked him. No way Lamb can get a conviction and he knows it.
Keith: That sounds like great news.
Cliff McCormack: But, he's gonna hold Veronica as long as he possibly can.
Keith: Can I get you anything, honey?
Veronica: Uh, couple cartons of smokes. [Keith gives her a look] What, Dad, it's currency on the inside.
Keith: Any guess where I might find Josh?
Veronica: Mexico?
Keith: So you think he did it?
Veronica: I don't know. If he didn't, he sure panicked quickly.
Keith: That's what I thought too.
Cliff McCormack: Anyone wanna know what I think? [silence] Fine, I'll keep it to myself. I'm just saying, my entire day is spent going through my clients' lives. This kid, he's on the up and up.
Keith: Okay, I've got an appointment with Dean O'Dell's old assistant. I can't just put his murder case on hold. [gives Veronica a look]
Veronica: What?
Keith: Just, I thought this sight would be more traumatic for me, but... [shrugs]

MISTAKES/GOOFS

FAKE: (At 09:50) Logan takes a picture of Veronica behind bars. When the camera shoots from Logan's point of view, we can see Veronica clearly on his cell phone, but when the camera changes angles we can see that his index finger blocking the camera, so all that the picture could offer is a blurry image of a finger.
CREW: As Keith walks toward Veronica with an envelope at 15:33, the camera tilts up to track him and there is a moment when you can see over the top of the set above his head.

TRIVIA

As Sherrif Lamb lies injured with a massive head wound to the back of his head, he says "I smell bread".This is a reference to an episode of "M*A*S*H,"in which a soldier utters that non-profound sentence as he is dying.
