"Betty and Veronica" is episode 16 of season 1 of the television show Veronica Mars.
Plot
When someone steals Neptune High's mascot, Polly the Parrot, Veronica goes undercover at rival school Pan High as "Betty." In retaliation, Wallace and the Neptune High basketball team steal the Pan High goat. When a video surfaces over the Neptune High news channel showing Polly's kidnapper demanding that Wallace, the best player, not play at that night's game, Veronica is able to deduce who it is: a Neptune High player who has bet heavily against his own school. Veronica also checks her mother into rehab, but not before getting a lot of information.
