But her confession just sends Peter and Sam down a rabbit hole involving “Brooke Wheeler” (a catfishing account using stolen pictures and videos from Oregon State student Abby Samuels), expelled student Grayson (the blackmailing mastermind of it all), DeMarcus, poor Diapey Drew (or, if you prefer, flexible Diapey Drew) and the computer science teacher. That Jenna seems to be revealed as the Turd Burglar is a surprise, if only because this comes with an episode and a half to go. There’s no question this time of whodunnit, but it plays out a bit like Murder on the Orient Express, by revealing that all the suspects kinda did it. Season Two, in addition to leaning into the melancholy side of the series, takes a different approach to resolving its mystery. It’s not really an ambiguous ending, but it leaves just enough wiggle room for the audience to have fun arguing (I have a friend who still insists, at least half-seriously, that Ming did it). All the clues in the first finale point to Christa being the dick-drawer (with help from her boyfriend), yet she denies it and the boys have only a pile of circumstantial evidence against her. One of the bolder choices Vandal Season One made was to clearly tell you who drew the dicks, while maintaining the tiniest shred of deniability about it. Spoilers for all of American Vandal Season Two coming up just as soon as I buy seven more hats and a snow globe…
