"Mars vs. Mars" is the 14th episode of season one of the television show Veronica Mars.
Plot
When Carrie Bishop, the gossip queen of the '09ers, accuses Mr. Rooks, Veronica's favorite teacher, of having an affair with her, Veronica sets out to prove her wrong and Mr. Rooks innocent. It's not that simple, however, since her father has been hired to prove he's guilty.
Veronica finds out that Mr. Rooks did have an affair, not with Carrie, but her friend. She was pregnant and didn't want to press charges against him, so Carrie took matters into her own hands.
