Veronica goes undercover during a sorority rush for her first assignment at the college newspaper. She is hoping to follow some leads the newspaper has gotten to close in on the campus rapist. In true Veronica style while she is trying to get into the sorority to get a closer look she finds a few enemies and answers in places she didn't expect. Logan and Wallace are put to the test when they volunteer for a class project that if they succeed at, will get them out of the term paper due at the end of the class. To test the effects of torture half of the project volunteers are guards trying to extract information to where a fake bomb is from the other half of the students who are posing as prisoners. The guards have 48 hours and any means possible to try and get the information from the prisoners, while the prisoners have to put up with the guards without giving up the info to "win".

Episode Quotes
 
Veronica: Oh my god, what are you doing here?
Dick: Fulfilling my destiny. It's a sorority party, it's why I left the womb.
 
(looking at a group picture of the Zeta Theta Beta sorority)
Nish: What do you think?
Veronica: I think it's the gateway to hell and I don't want to keep looking directly at it.
 
(talking about a story assignment Nish hopes Veronica will agree to take)
Nish: According to reliable sources, four of them, the Theta Betas get pledges all liquored up, take them to a secret room and have them undress while the guys from their brother fraternity watch the show through a two-way mirror. Now if this Parker girl was there-
Veronica: You had me at "secret room."
 
 
Cultural References
 
Bizarro Dick
Comic book hero Superman has many enemies, but perhaps none stranger than Bizarro. Bizarro is essentially a flawed copy of Superman who does everything backwards. Where Superman is smart, Bizarro is dumb. He's... well... bizarre! Dick Casablancas uses the term "bizarro" in reference to an imagined version of himself that behaves completely differently than he would.
 
Chip Diller
The character named Chip Diller likely refers to the name of Kevin Bacon's character from the 1978 film Animal House, about an hilariously out of control fraternity called Delta House. It's a sly reference to the Greek system and suggestive of what Veronica believed true about the sorority she investigated.
 
The experiment that Logan and Wallace sign up for is reminiscent of the infamous Stanford Prison Experiment. The experiment, which was headed up by Dr. Philip Zimbardo of Stanford University in 1971, was originally intended to test the human response to captivity, but soon spiraled out of control.

 
The episode title is a play on the title of the movie "My Big Fat Greek Wedding".
