Season two, episodes 21-22 (“Happy Go Lucky” and “Not Pictured”) are also key to the story. Rewatch: All of season one, but especially episodes one (“Pilot”), six (“Return of the Kane”), 12 (“Clash of the Tritons”), 17 (“Kanes and Abel’s”) and 20-22 (“M.A.D.,” “A Trip to the Dentist” and “Leave It to Beaver”). Of course, they all live in a world where the outcome of the case in court was very different than what viewers know really went down. The case is also a subject of fascination for Penn Epner (Patton Oswalt), who’s also connected to the bombings, and a group of true-crime aficionados with whom he investigates cold cases. Thus, when she wonders aloud about the case in front of Veronica and Keith, it’s a jarring moment. She was, at most, a toddler in the show’s timeline when Veronica’s best friend (Amanda Seyfried) was murdered, setting the series in motion. The Lily Kane murder: The new episodes feature a teenage girl, Matty Ross (Izabela Vidovic), who’s connected to the central case: a series of bombings in Neptune during spring break. 'Veronica Mars': All There Is to Know About Season 4 on Hulu With a new, eight-episode season arriving July 26 on Hulu, The Hollywood Reporter - with some help from Veronica Mars creator Rob Thomas - zeroes in on a few characters and story arcs from the show’s history, including a pair of novels that are also part of the show’s canon, that will help prepare viewers for the new episodes. The show’s season-long mysteries featured numerous red herrings and plot twists, and it filled in the world around Veronica, her dad Keith (Enrico Colantoni) and her close group of friends with a wide array of characters (more than 60 actors have appeared in at least a half-dozen episodes). Veronica Mars had a deceptively simple premise - “teenage girl private eye” - that it used to build a complicated and densely populated world around Kristen Bell’s title character.
