Some slightly disappointing news today, guys: Christian Kane will no longer be joining us at the Hub con. However the three lovely ladies of cult television and Michael Muhney are still attending, so go get your tickets! We'll be partying down even without Christian Kane. He doesn't know what he'll be missing :p

Anyway, that news will not deter me from the fourth and final Lambspam, the season 3 Lambspam. Sadly this is the season in which we say goodbye to our beloved Sheriff, but our fond memories remain, many of them in this picspam.


No Sheriff in the first episode of season 3, breaking tradition, but he does appear investigating a rape in the second episode. 'Tell me I'm here because of you. Not that I'm counting or anything, but isn't this wolf cry #2?' Ah, Lamb, always the charmer.


However, he is not there for Veronica, but for Parker, who was raped and had her head shaved. He tries to be sympathetic (kinda ruined by his response to finding out Parker doesn't remember anything, which is the lovely 'They always say that').


He does his mad face at Veronica, who walked in on the rape without realising it was a rape


and she's REALLY SORRY.


We don't get to see Lamb again until episode 5, sadly, but he does get great scenes. First, he busts up a robbery of an illegal on-campus gambling ring (where Veronica's necklace from Lilly is stolen)


and smacks down the campus rent-a-cops.


Then he pulls up on two of his favourite cell decorations: Logan and Weevil.


He whips out the cuffs


for Weevil on this occasion ('Whaddaya say we do your Miranda rights in harmony this time? I'll take lead, you take tenor?')


but calls back to Logan as he leaves 'Hey good-looking, we'll be back to pick you up later!' We don't get as much Lamb in season 3, but man, he has some great lines when we do get to see him.


It's not too long before Veronica shows up at the station, but Lamb is astounded to find that she thinks Weevil did it.


In fact, he is so astounded he flashes back to the 80's!


ROBOT DANCE!!!


'Does not compute.'


Hold onto your hats, because this episode continues to amaze. Lamb goes to search the home of the people who actually robbed the house


and (in spite of the way this cap looks) is weirdly sympathetic when he tells her he couldn't find the necklace, and has this kind of...team mentality. 'You see how well this works when you play by the rules, Veronica?)


We get one more Lamb scene which confuses Lamb more than us


wherein a suspected kidnap victim turns up and...says he just wandered off for a while. Or something. The guy is a BAD BAD MAN and Lamb should've just SHOT HIM THEN. Uh, I mean...


Lamb thinks it's a little ridiculous.


Now to episode 6, where Lamb finds 'some girl' in his office.


Veronica tells him of someone she suspects of the rapes


and again, scary sympathetic team-player Lamb shows up, informing Veronica that GHB was found on the guy. Mercer, for those playing at home.


A visit to the Sheriff's department yields more Lamb goodies in episode 7. The boyfriend of Veronica's new friend had turned up at the police station, apparently drunk


though he was actually concussed. Lamb, being the concerned official he is, was going to have Sachs take the kids to the hospital 'as soon as he comes back with my bear claw...'


Strangely sympathetic Lamb allows the girl to be reunited with her boyfriend, but 'no touching!' AND THEN HE LETS HER TAG ALONG WHEN THEY TAKE HIM TO HOSPITAL. Where has this new person come from?!


Episode 8 led some to believe that, now that Veronica was no longer a high school student, Lamb may have developed a thing for her, thanks to a look he shoots her while investigating a disappearance involving Dean O'Dell (who's 'met smarter sandwiches' than the Sheriff)


...which would look like that. Romance a-brewin'?


Veronica uses Lamb's lust for another character, 'the hottie from channel 9', to get information in this hilarious scene.


Lamb Googles the reporter before picking up the phone so he can look informed


and gets his flirt on


before Veronica's dad picks up the other line and ruins the charade. Poor, humiliated Lamb ♥


Here we finally get back to our comfortable, familiar dickhead Lamb, clicking at his deputy


to get him to hurry up with information.


He pulls over a suspect or...witness or something


then shows up at the kidnap victim & kidnapper's house.


He interviews the guy and that's his last scene in the episode.


I've lost episode 3.11 somehow, and my only note on this scene was 'aww, Keith smacking down Lamb!'


but I like this facial expression :D


Okay, 3.13, and Lamb interviewing a lying sonofabitch


who lies about a murder.


A season just wouldn't be complete without Lamb arresting a student right in front of their classmates


and at the end of this episode Veronica's the lucky would-be-but-isn't crim for aiding & abetting the escape of another would-be-but-isn't crim.


The investigation continues in 3.14, 'Mars, Bars', one of the most upsetting episode for Lamb fans (but also a heavily Lamb-centric episode.)


He tries interrogating Veronica but it proves largely unsuccessful.


They shoot him from some really great angles and with awesome, noir-like, flashback-to-season-1 lighting in this episode. < / film geek >


Moving on, Keith presents Lamb with evidence in another ongoing case, so that Lamb is just swamped with work.


This makes him thoughtful. Which is not a word I ever thought I'd use to describe Lamb.


He interviews a suspect in the other case


and the director continues to use lovely, hard angles, even when Lamb is being proven to be an idiot...as usual.


He knows he's being lied to but he just can't work out how.


Lamb interacts with Wallace in this scene, which is a nice change, it hasn't even happened since episode 1 of season 1 (FULL CIRCLE MOMENT!) He's letting Veronica out of her cell, and there's this brilliant interaction:
Lamb: 'Don't I know you?'
Wallace: 'Yeah, you told me to go see the wizard and ask him for some guts.'
Lamb: 'Well, did you?'
Wallace: 'Yeah, he said to let you know that you're the only sheriff in America who he considers a true friend of Dorothy.'
BURN. Ah, the memories.


Movin' right along. Keith and Veronica come by the station for a visit


and they provide clues to the ongoing murder investigation, but Sachs has some other clues that point Lamb in a different and all together more dangerous direction.


So Lamb does some interrogation (1. intimidation)


(2. funny faces) and doesn't entirely believe the answers he's given, which is new and different for us.


The interrogation continues with a lawyer present


and some pen-fiddling


but unfortunately for Lamb, he arrested his suspect outside Neptune jurisdiction


and therefore can't really get anything out of him. Bummer.


The suspect (who is the BAD MAN I mentioned earlier in the spam, by the by) is involved in breaking & entering, and Lamb decides to go in alone despite Keith's offer to help (nooo! Take the back-up!)


Lamb and Sachs arrive at the house


and Lamb heads inside to do some stealth sneaking


with GUNS! Mmm, Lamb with guns. Right, focus.


Lamb is spooked by his own reflection in the mirror


and shoots it, providing his only gunshot of the season AND Muhney's only injury - the explosion blew some glass into his face and he ended up in the hospital, poor thing.


He battled on for Lamb's final moments


before the BAD MAN hits him with a baseball bat and ends our love affair with the Sheriff of Neptune County. Lamb provides his last words - the insightful 'I smell bread' - before leaving our screens forever. WE MISS YOU, SHERIFF LAMB!

That's the end of the Lambspam, but not the end of Muhney Week! Tomorrow, I'll be spamming with homemade screencaps from the movie Michael made with Amber Benson, 'Lovers, Liars and Lunatics.' Stay tuned, and if you want the other parts of the Lambspam you can find them here:
Part 1 - season 1
Part 2 - the first half of season 2
Part 3 - the second half of season 2

By the way, every one of the caps used in this (somewhat extensive) spam was provided by <a href="http://www.vm-caps.com</a>VM-Caps.com</a> so go check them out if you have the time! <font color=green>Green Queen</font>
