Pretty Little Liars - I'm Your Puppet


With Spencer (Troian Bellisario) psychiatric's hold finally complete Aria (Lucy Hale), Hanna (Ashley Benson), and Emily (Shay Mitchell) head to Radley to talk with their friend for the first time since her meltdown in the woods. Despite delivering the news that the police found a body in the woods which isn't Toby (Keegan Allen), the Liars are unable to convince Spencer, who looks far too at home in the mental institution for their liking, that she might be mistaken about what she saw that night that earned her the one-way trip to the looney bin. While stuck in the asylum Spencer learns more about Alison (Sasha Pieterse) hiding her own secrets in the days leading up to her death while continuing to investigate and retrace Mona‘s (Janel Parrish) steps during her time in Radley.

Aria starts to have doubts about her relationship with Ezra (Ian Harding) given his new responsibilities and having to lie to her principal about the state of their relationship to improve his chances of getting a job as a substitute teacher. Hanna's doubts about Jamie (Bernard Curry) are heightened when Aria's mother (Holly Marie Combs) tells her about a mistake in the church renovation that costs them $8,000 when their bell is swapped out with one of far less quality. Telling Caleb (Tyler Blackburn) her suspicions about his father just stirs up old feelings and causes more pain between father and son.


The Liars sneak into the morgue to get a picture of the John Doe hoping that seeing it will knock some sense back into their friend but are unprepared for the sudden appearance of Red Coat or the weird message the girls find from A. Aria has her own troubles with A when someone using her name picks up Ezra's son from karate and takes him to the fair without anyone's knowledge. Spencer's snooping leads her to Mona's stash inside Radley and a heart-to-heart with Wren (Julian Morris) about how he bent the rules for Mona as well as shedding light on Cece's (Vanessa Ray) antagonistic relationship with Alison (who got Cece expelled from college).

Leading into next week's Spring finale, Hanna discovers A used her to split Caleb and his father apart, Aria realizes an enemy like A puts anyone around her in danger which is far too great a risk for young Malcolm, Emily's mother (Nia Peeples) informs her the police have discovered a second body in the woods which may indeed belong to the missing Toby, and an exhausted Spencer gives into to Mona and joins the A-Team meaning there's far more trouble coming the Liars way next week and beyond.
