By Amber GarrettMar. 26 2020, Updated 3:Eleven p.m. ET
The non-public life of Veronica Mars is absolute best described with one word: Messy. While the personal detective is brilliant as hell at solving murders and wielding a stun gun, her romantic relationships through the years were rocky. That's no longer solely her fault. Trauma after trauma, from being deserted via her mother to the loss of her best possible friend, left her a bit of bruised.
Despite the percentages, she did appear to in finding one truly epic love — "spanning years and continents, lives ruined, blood shed. Epic." But Logan Echolls was no longer the one guy in her lifestyles. Here's a breakdown on every one of Veronica Mars' relationships over the years, together with a pair exes you will have forgotten.
But beware, there are some primary spoilers right here, especially when you've no longer but watched all of Season 4. Consider your self warned.
Veronica Mars' first dating: Duncan Kane
At the beginning of the series, Veronica is trying to get over the double-whammy of her easiest pal Lilly's murder a 12 months prior and the abrupt end to her romance with Lilly's brother, Duncan. As Season 1 unfolds, we be told Duncan broke up with V shortly before Lilly died as a result of he suspected Veronica was his part sister.
His father, tech rich person Jake Kane, and Veronica's mother, Leanne, had a lengthy affair, which known as Veronica's paternity into query. Thankfully, a DNA test unearths Keith (aka the most productive dad in the history of TV) is one hundred p.c Veronica's father.
Duncan and Veronica re-ignite their romance in Season 2 after Veronica breaks up with Logan for the first time. But Duncan and Veronica's love story will get a wrench thrown into it with the surprising death of Duncan's ex, Meg Manning. The two dated for some time when Veronica and Duncan had been apart, and Meg turned into pregnant.
Meg have been in a coma as the only surviving passenger in the bus crash that had claimed the lives of the driver and the opposite seven riders. However, a blood clot brought about Meg to go away impulsively, and while she does not live to tell the tale, her baby does.
Veronica's deficient, unfortunate rebound: Leo D'Amato
Despite his love for Veronica, Duncan runs off to Mexico along with his daughter so as to spare her the same abusive and controlling childhood Meg experienced by the hands of her very religious parents.
If you wish to have proof Veronica is some way better PI than a girlfriend, just talk to Deputy Leo. Poor man were given this type of raw deal. First, he was the constant target of Veronica's manipulation for police intel and then, when their relationship went respectable, she cheated on him with Logan.
Veronica's epic love: Logan Echolls (Part 1)
To her credit, she ends things with Leo and fully owns up to being a jerk, but her shame isn't enough to stay her from involving Leo in her schemes. Ultimately, this will get Leo fired from the Neptune Sheriff's Department, even though when Keith resumes his position as county sheriff, he rehires his deputy. Nowadays he's a detective for the San Diego PD and still has an absolute center of gold.
Logan actually wasn't kidding with that complete "years and continents" speech in Season 2. Their dating began rather contemptuously originally of the collection as the rich son of two actors dealt along with his grief over Lilly, who used to be his on-again, off-again female friend in addition to V's perfect friend.
Along with Duncan, the 4 of them were best possible friends, however after Keith accused Jake of killing his daughter, Logan took exception to Veronica siding together with her dad, and grew to become basically all of the school towards her. He also took exception to V telling Lilly about his infidelity, main to their breakup not lengthy prior to she used to be killed.
Despite their very, very rocky origins, Logan and Veronica develop shut as he grapples together with his mom's suicide and they ultimately get started dating, first in secret, and then brazenly. Their courting continues to develop but, as soon as Logan learns his father were napping with Lilly and murdered her to keep her quiet, his consuming and violent conduct leads Veronica to break up with him.
They re-light their romance after a season spent courting other people — Veronica gets back with Duncan and Logan dates Hannah — however it is clear they are not done with each and every different and reconcile at the end of Season 2. But as they transfer on to Heart College in Season 3, Logan grows pissed off with Veronica's stubborn independence and the dumpee becomes the dumper.
Veronica's safe guess: Stosh "Piz" Piznarsky
A heartbroken Veronica ultimately moves on, and while it is almost definitely the healthiest courting she'll ever have, let's be real, V was never going to be glad with a healthy relationship.
Look, I'm going to put myself at the mercy of maximum other Marshmallows and all LoVe shippers and say that whilst I agree Veronica and Logan's passion is swoon-worthy, it isn't precisely the healthiest relationship. But she did appear to have a excellent thing going with Piz. I mean, they will have to have, given that their relationship continues beyond faculty (and beyond Veronica Mars' cancellation). When the Veronica Mars movie picks up 9 years later, Veronica is a attorney in New York and dwelling with Piz.
LoVe Forever: Logan Echolls (Part 2)
But identical to Michael Corleone in The Godfather, just when Veronica thinks she's out, they pull her back in. She returns to Neptune for a 10-year highschool reunion and a homicide case, and when it becomes transparent the return to her outdated existence is not going to be transient, Piz makes a spoil for it.
At the end of the Veronica Mars movie, Logan, who has joined the U.S. Navy, returns to active accountability. But he alludes to his "years and continents" speech and it is clear the epic romance is on the breaking point of renewing. Sure sufficient, with the reboot of the show on Hulu, Logan and Veronica are very much a couple, although they have got different ideas about how much commitment they would like.
Logan, now a military intelligence officer, has been going to remedy to deal with his trauma and is in a in point of fact great place. He wants to calm down, however Veronica has now not moderately dealt with all her scars, and after seeing what happened to each their parents' marriages, she resists getting married and forestalls Logan from proposing. However, she in the end concurs, and they have got a small courthouse marriage.
But of path, Veronica Mars can never be allowed to be at liberty for too lengthy. Logan is killed by a automotive bomb planted in Veronica's car within the finale episode of the season, leaving the newlywed detective a widow. She begins seeing his therapist and in the end leaves Neptune to clear up circumstances at the road.
Fans are very divided on how creator Rob Thomas selected to finish this love tale, but he argues, for the display to transfer ahead and feature long term seasons, Veronica can't have a happy finishing.
