Quotes[]
- (Veronica is listening to a message Weevil left on her answering machine)
- Weevil: Veronica. Pick up, pick up, pick up, pick up. Where you at? I tried you on your cell but maybe you got it turned off or something. Uh, hey, lucky for me, your dad's a cool guy, 'cause he gave me another chance at this. Anyway, reason I'm calling is... (machine beeps) I need a bail bondsman and a private investigator and you need a 21st-century answering machine!
- Veronica: Weevil, you're wobbling.
- Weevil: Yeah, and I'm gonna take the fall unless you can help me.
Trivia[]
