Parker’s return is a surprise but a welcome one. Back when Veronica Mars first aired, she became pretty disliked simply because she “stood in the way” of Veronica and Logan getting back together. However, upon a rewatch some of the fan outrage felt unwarranted and Parker herself isn’t too bad. She’s Mac’s bubbly roommate at Hearst who takes an immediate dislike to Veronica. You can’t exactly blame her, since Parker was raped, and Veronica who thought it was a consensual hook-up, did nothing to stop it. The two girls make up though when Veronica reveals that she too was a rape survivor and understands what it feels like.

In fact, if it wasn’t for Parker then Veronica may have been raped again or even murdered. She gave Veronica a rape whistle, which the latter doubted would be helpful, and when Mercer had her captured the noise from the whistle brought Parker’s attention. Ultimately, these two will probably always have a deep bond of comraderie even if they’re never the best of friends.
She dates Logan for a short period of time however it’s not meant to last. The two aren’t very compatible and it was clear that he still harbored feelings for Veronica. She ended things but sadly returned home to her controlling parents and that was the last we saw of her.
