'''Keith:''' She's not my old lady. She's my special lady friend!
** In the second season episode "The Quick and the Wed", Veronica confronts Vinnie at a bowling alley. When he offers her a beer, she replies, "Vinnie, this is not 'Nam, this is bowling. There are rules!"
** In the second season episode "I Am God", Veronica gets a call from Keith, who wants to know why she's not in class, to which she replies, "And a good day to you too, sir!"
** In the third season episode "Wichita Linebacker", when one of the characters thinks another person in the dorm stole his football playbook, he storms into the person's room, grabs him and throws him on the bed, and says, "Where's the playbook, Larry?", similar to Jackie Treehorn's thugs saying, "Where's the money, Lebowski?" He also adds, "You're entering a world of pain."
** In the third season episode "Charlie Don't Surf", when Logan surprises Veronica as she's walking on campus, she exclaims, "Careful, man, there's a beverage here!"
** In the third season episode "Lord of the Pi's", when Keith gets hired to find someone's missing wife, the scene is a shot-by-shot [[{{Homage}} homage]] to the scene where the Dude first meets Brandt and the real Mr. Lebowski.
** In the third season episode "Show Me the Monkey", when some students approach Veronica to find a lab monkey that's been stolen, one of them believes the culprits are "those [[FunWithAcronyms PHAT]] kids, which Veronica mishears as "fat", and she tells them, "And dude, 'girth-challenged' is the preferred nomenclature."
** In the third season episode "Un-American Graffiti", we learn Dick's My Space page includes the quote, "The Dude abides", and yes, he takes great comfort in that.
