Veronica Mars season 3 episode 3, "Wichita Linebacker" (a.k.a "Friday Night Sleights"), takes place after the events of the previous episode where Veronica learned that Keith is running for sheriff, and she has taken a job at the office of a private investigator named Vinnie. Meanwhile, Veronica's college friend, Peggy (played by Amanda Seyfried), has come to Neptune to seek out Veronica's help. Peggy believes that her boyfriend is cheating on her, and she wants Veronica to investigate the matter for her.

Veronica investigates the case and discovers that Peggy's boyfriend is involved in a big scam that is being run by a group of college students. The scam involves using a football player, the Wichita Linebacker, to lift cars and tow them away. The scammer then charges an exorbitant fee to retrieve the car, leaving the owners with no choice but to pay up. The Wichita Linebacker is unaware of the scam and is just being used for his strength.

As Veronica looks deeper into the case, she uncovers a web of deceit and corruption. The scam is being run by a wealthy college student named Chip Diller, who is the son of a powerful congressman. Chip is using his father's influence to keep the police at bay and continue the scam. Veronica is determined to bring Chip to justice and expose the scam for what it is.

Meanwhile, Veronica's relationship with Logan is on shaky ground. Logan has been keeping secrets from Veronica, and she is unsure if she can trust him. Logan is also struggling with his own demons and is finding it hard to stay on the straight and narrow. Veronica is trying to balance her investigation with her personal life, and the two seem to be at odds.

As the episode progresses, Veronica's investigation takes a dangerous turn, and she finds herself in a life-threatening situation. She must use all her skills and ingenuity to extricate herself from the danger and bring the scam to light. In the end, Veronica manages to solve the case and bring the perpetrators to justice. However, the fallout from the case leaves her questioning everything she knows about justice and morality.

In "Wichita Linebacker" (a.k.a "Friday Night Sleights"), Veronica Mars faces one of her toughest cases yet. The episode showcases Kristen Bell's range as an actress, as she is able to seamlessly switch between the wit and humor of the character to the intensity and danger of the case. The episode also features a standout performance by Amanda Seyfried as Peggy, who brings an emotional depth to the episode.

Overall, "Wichita Linebacker" (a.k.a "Friday Night Sleights") is a must-watch episode for fans of Veronica Mars.
