Trivia:

When Mac comes across Lauren Sinclair in the library, Lauren says she is reading "The Westing Game." This is a real young adult novel by Ellen Raskin, originally published by Dutton in 1978. The plot revolves around a teenage girl who solves a complicated murder mystery involving a large group of possible suspects--just as the main character of "Veronica Mars" (2004) does over the course of the first season.

Goofs:

Continuity: When the mother of the newest girl who is missing comes to make the complaint, Leo is the person at the front desk who takes the complaint. In the next scene Keith Mars goes to find Veronica who he finds is at Leo's band's practice. Leo is there, and has no idea that another girl is missing.

Quotes:

Jackson Douglas: I don't care what they say about you, Veronica Mars, you rock!
Veronica: Yes I do. I also take cash.
