the melody lingers on

Yah, Mike’s in Harrisburg! And even the liars are happy about that. It was by far the best part of the episode. So let’s discuss the rest of the episode.

Ali’s trail has begun and it is the centerpiece of the episode. We have only seen the prosecution at work, first on opening statements and then examining Jason as a witness. In the opening remarks the prosecution states that Ali’s kidnaping story is just that a story and that Mona knew so Ali killed her. This freaks out the liars. In questioning Jason since he changed his view that Ali is no longer the murder the prosecution turns on him and exposes his affair with Ashley and portrays it that she had him change his mind to protect Hanna.

Still locked up in jail there is nothing Hanna can do. She does find out from Ali that the ads and the number in them are real, she thinks it was Mona because they stopped after she disappeared. Tim sticks with Ashley even after his congregants won’t stop calling him. And Caleb is the best boyfriend (even Spencer thinks so) for staying with Hanna even after she tells him to leave.

Spencer’s mom tells the liars to stay away from the trail. The others go and at first Spencer follows her mother’s orders. However by the second day spencer is there as well. They also get a call from the number from the ad/pizza receipt; it’s just a song Mona would play. They decide to search Mona’s room for evidence and after finding it ransacked and a note from A telling them there is nothing left, Spencer finds a cryptic note card behind a mirror. She only has one episode left to figure out what it means and save her friends. Spencer also has some conversations with Jason.

As mentioned earlier Aria goes to the trial and searches Mona’s room (Emily did the same). In addition she talked to Andrew. As opposed to previous episodes where he is a nice, caring guy, out to help her, this episode makes you think he may be A or the murderer. He starts off talking about how Mona was not the saint she was made out to be and latter explains that he did not mean “that she got what she deserved”. We also see him outside Mona’s house when the liars are leaving and there is an ice pick through the window. With all this evidence against him it could mean only one thing, he is defiantly not A.

Besides the events that I already mentioned Emily being involved with she also got a call from Ali and listened to the secrete machine and it played Mona’s song. Not much going on for Emily.

·        Only one episode left

·        Without a body it’s very difficult to prove murder

·        Hanna’s blood not Ali’s was found on Mona’s clothes, another reasonable doubt

·        I agree with Hanna if I did not see these events unfold first hand I would not believe it either

·        They still don’t know who killed Ali’s mom

·        I guess they all skip school for the trial

·        They should do an episode in Harrisburg

 

Well that is all I have to say about that
