WOW. Is it just me or was that episode of Pretty Little Liars super confusing? I have endured my fair share of head scratching in this show’s seven seasons, but my, that was a doozy.
The episode picks up right where the previous one left off—Elliott is dead blah blah blah. Time to bury the body.
Wait…do they just carry around shovels in case of an emergency like this?
Aria, Emily and Spencer start digging as Ali and Hanna sit nearby in complete shock. Finally, Hanna joins in the fun. She did kill Elliott, so she should partake in his burial, right?
Seeing as none of the Liars are medical professionals, I doubt they ever checked to make sure Elliott was really dead. So what if they are just burying him alive? Whatever, it’s not important.
As the girls plan to cover up Rollins’s death (because confessing the true circumstances to the police is NOT an option), lots of fast talking and nitty gritty details make it seem like they have the situation under control.
They decide to make it look like he skipped town before his true motives could be discovered—even though they are still not sure what his true motives were.
Caleb stops by to check on Spencer. He has no idea Hanna is standing on the other side of the door as he gushes about his deepest romantic feelings for Spence. And it is heartbreaking on EVERY level. The only thing that could make it worse is if Toby tagged along for this walk down memory lane.
Meanwhile, Aria and Ali break into Welby so it appears as if Alison never left. This means strapping her to a hospital bed and putting that awful mask over her face again to prove what an unethical doctor (and, might I remind you, husband) Rollins was.
Alison confesses to Aria— complete with flashblack if, by chance, you doubt her—that she did follow Charlotte to the church the night she was killed. But when she left Charlotte was still alive, so she’s probably 100 percent innocent. So much for all that torture she’s endured since the Liars turned her in as suspect number one. *~apologies~*
Spencer gets smashed at the Radley and meets a sexy guy who looks a lot like Marissa Cooper’s yard boy. They almost get it on in the elevator before Spence calls it off. We ~all~ know this guy is going to be revealed as Rosewood’s newest detective hire next week, right?
Hanna and Aria return to the woods to torch Lucas’s car. Surprise: it’s not there! Double surprise: Mona stole it to save the ladies from themselves and their very un-Mona-like plan.
The Liars plus wannabe BFF Mona head to brunch the next morning to drink mimosas and whisper about all the things they usually talk about at full volume.
A familiar clicking alerts them to the fact that blind Jenna is back in town “to celebrate Toby’s engagement.” NOT. Toby had no idea Jenna was in town.
Spencer goes looking for Caleb, only to find that he has skipped town. (Or did they accidentally murder him too?)
Emily and Aria head to Welby to visit Alison, where they find Toby and lots of other police officers.
Toby informs the group that Elliott Rollins is dead. No, Toby has not suddenly sprouted a brain and caught on to the girls’ lies this quickly. The real Elliott Rollins has been dead for 15 years, which gives the police a reason to go looking for the phony. Whoops.
As Hanna and Mona search for the bracelet she dropped in Elliott’s car (because she wore jewelry to a crime scene yet again), they hear a cell phone ring…from underneath a panel in the floorboard…with all the car doors closed. But that’s not even the shocking part.
Freaking Jenna is on the other end of the line, and she’s calling for some guy named Archer Dunhill. Wrong number, much? (JK, we fully understand the implication here.)
