Veronica's got her garlic ready as she's talking to Leon, who's psyched that his professor has such a high opinion of him. He then goes to get his research files, only to discover that they've been stolen. If Veronica's not wondering how a cryptology expert was so easy to steal from, maybe she should be. Then again, many academics are applied morons.

3. "Say hi to Shauna for me -- she sounds like a keeper." This was Veronica at her most invincible -- taking on a worthy foe and soundly defeating him. Who wasn't like "Hell YEAH!" during that VO?

Radio showdown. Piz asks Keith about his recent crackdown on underage drinking, and Keith says that he plans to continue enforcing the legal age. Vinnie says that he's going to enforce the important laws, "like murder and terrorism." Even the Fitzpatricks at home are like, "Nice phraseology, ASS." Vinnie says that maybe once he takes care of the big problems, he'll have time to drop in on campus-area bars -- "for a cold one." The crowd goes wild! Piz then takes a caller, who has a two-part question for Keith: "First, why do you suck? And the second part: what's it like to suck so hard?" Keith looks balefully at Vinnie, but dude, you totally brought this on yourself. There's no way that kid would be harassing you at 8 AM if he were good and hung over like he should be.

In the library, Wallace notices his stalker, so he gets up from his desk. As soon as he's gone, the kid goes over to snoop around his stuff, but Wallace surreptitiously sneaks back and returns the favor. He finds a little Trapper Keeper-shrine to himself, complete with pictures, game stats, and notes on his activities. When he looks up, the kid is in his face, and asks if he's familiar with "The Castle." Wallace has, in fact, heard of it, and the guy says he's been "authorized to inform" him that he's been "tapped" for admission; however, if he tells anyone, his invitation will be rescinded and there will be consequences. So all this cloak-and-dagger stuff was just to give him an invite to the Stonecutters or Tritons or whatever? I can't believe it was necessary to tail him for this long before offering him the invite, so I'm forced to conclude that if offered, the kid wouldn't turn down those cutoff shorts after all. We cut out before we hear if Wallace accepts the offer.
