From the last thread....

Well, it was a crazy one. I still hate Ezra a lot and it was so disturbing how that wimpy moron was in the face of a woman in a car screaming at her like an out of control prick. He makes me sick.

Aria dumps Jake, who is a decent, caring normal guy for that pile of crap named Ezra. Jake even saw Ezra screaming at that woman and even after Aria broke up with Jake, he still tries to warn her about Ezra. At least Aria had the sense to question Ezra on why he lied to her and who was the woman he was yelling at. You can see in a subtle way Aria is starting to question her now exclusive teacher boyfriend. I can't believe I even have to write that. He also seems responsible for putting sharp stuff in the exercise equipment that cut Jake.

Spencer got dumped on twice, once by Toby and then Emily. Not that I totally blamed either Toby or Emily for telling her to stop. Still, I felt badly for Spencer. I also don't trust her father in the least bit. He's hiding something and now we find out Mrs. D is affiliated with Radley too. He completely manipulated Toby to sign on the dotted line. I'm not buying that Jason is having issues either. I think that's part of some sort of cover up but I don't know what it is precisely. I speculated way back in the day that the key to Toby's mothers' death is tied directly into the main mystery and I still maintain that.

I absolutely LOVED the Ashley/Hanna scenes in this episode. One of the best mother/daughter pairings I've ever seen on TV. I love them!

Is Ali manipulating Emily again and trying to divide them? I am not sure. I don't know what to believe at this point. However, I DO buy that she's scared, no terrified. I buy it. I just don't know if she told Emily she cannot be sure she can trust the others because it's the reality or she's trying to divide them. I mean, maybe she told Emily that because she knows Aria's next to creeper, Ezra? It's possible. Or she really does want to divide them. I can't be sure. I just know that she looked terrified last night. I also remember an interview with Sasha and she made it seem like Alison has changed. That is my interpretation though and it could be wrong. I have to see more of this storyline to know what Alison is up to precisely. Some people say she's a sociopath and sociopaths do not change. I just don't know what I think though, even with my psychology knowledge. Has she exhibited sociopathic behavior in the past? Yes, she has, but do the writer's believe she has? In addition, is she showing extreme remorse in her apology to Emily and does she seem legitimately afraid? Yes. Sociopaths can also be convincing and play it up, certainly. Still, I just don't know what to believe. Spencer IS usually right though so I am keeping that in mind.

At any rate, good episode. Still, so many questions unanswered as the mystery continues on and on.

Pretty Little Liars

It's more than obvious that Ezra is -A and he had something going on with Ali. But that's about it. I'm thinking he is the board shorts guy. I just hate how they are leading up the girls finding out. Them thinking Toby was -A is bad enough. They thought he was guilty of killing Alison when the show began, so it wasn't too far fetched. But finding out Ezra's involvement, it's gonna destroy them. I keep thinking it's gonna be that next episode, but hasn't happened yet. So I'm hoping it's next week.

I really like Travis, I guess I just don't trust anyone since I see everyone as -A when they get close to one of the girls But I like that Hanna is seeing someone new and not moping herself around Caleb not being around.

Nice to see Ashley and Hanna doing something fun. Who knew there was a plate throwing place where you can just smash plates all night. I wanna know where that kind of place is. I love Ashley getting more involved in Hanna's life, especially at such a vulnerable place with Caleb leaving and figuring out how to relive again. Ashley is just the most awesome mom!

About the Radley thing, I see it being this big conspiracy involving the Dilaurentis family and Jessica herself. I like that Peter is investigating it, but I wonder what secrets that place really has.

I actually saw the promo of this show the other day and it was quite moving. I really do have to check this show out!




It really sucks. I don't know why Hallmark went there. It's lame. Like I mentioned, I was shocked over the four episodes nightly. That is not the way to allow ratings to happen. It just made zero sense. I don't know what the network was thinking.



I can't imagine how Aria is going to react. Hanna is taking the break up with Caleb terribly. I don't think her heartbreak is going to come close to what Aria is going to feel. She is going to be shattered into tiny pieces. I don't know how she handles it without psychiatric help, even. We know her uncle and brother have a history of mental illness. I can see Aria needing help mentally after finding out. She is going to collapse, she really is.



Agreed.



I love her!

I want to also find that place where you can smash plates. That was so cool. LOL



I think there's endless secrets.

I want Mona back on the screen again soon. Through Mona we always find some stuff out. In fact, I bet Mona has almost 95% of this mystery already solved.

I just wonder what anyone was thinking. They had so much promotion for the show and then they just pull it without any notice and put on random programming. I think The Waltons is airing now in that time slot and that show aired thirty some years ago. No idea what happened there. Unless CBS had some contract issue making Hallmark pull the plug



Aria's entire world is Ezra. She has fought everyone on saying her relationship with Ezra has no valid place in anyone's world given he's a teacher and she's his student. Everything Aria has done in the past two years has been for her relationship. She tried to move on, found a great guy, and ultimately went back to Ezra. And then I can't imagine her reaction to the question I hope Ezra has to answer "why". Because that's ultimately going to be the most earth shattering. Why he was doing all of this and how he could make Aria believe he's this great man when he's making these girls lives hell on a daily basis.



Mona has definitely figured out Ezra has involvement in -A, not sure if she realizes if Ezra is -A. That's still debatable. Mona is always quick to tell the girls when she finds this amazing clue before they do. I wonder what Mona is waiting for in revealing the big secret.

I know. It is really going to be heartbreaking. I almost don't even want to see it because it's going to be painful. I even had to watch the scene when Aria found out Ezra never went out of town in this past episode with my eyes half closed practically. There's something about Aria that's so fragile and sensitive. I can't really explain it. She is starting the process of figuring it out, too. I was amazed that she took what Jake told her and followed up by asking Ezra about it in a slightly accusatory way. Deep down, Aria knows something is off already and it's only going to continue. She's going to be temporarily destroyed, she really is.



I know! She's calculated so there has to be a reason why she's waiting on this. I also want to know who Mona is working for or with.
