Blond Leading the Blind

NARRATOR: Previously on Pretty Little Liars: ALISON: It's my turn to torture you.
ELLA: What's that? ARIA: It's a box of Ali's things.
Jason found it.
He gave it to me.
You're afraid we found something, something in this box.
Unh! Emily! [GIRLS SCREAMING.]
ARIA: That's A's cell phone.
Hanna, call Caleb.
- He's the best way we can get info-- - Leave him out of this.

For "We See All.
" Noel broke up with me and I don't even know why.
Maybe you went out with the wrong person tonight.
I saw the way you looked at him before the show.
When my mom gets here, can you not mention this? Long as you promise to do the same.
I know that you want answers, but it's just still not safe.
- Why did you come here? - Shutting you out is killing me.
The owner shut down the phone.
- You sure you want me to work on this? GIRLS: Yes.
CALEB: Hanna, are you all right with this? I passed your mom heading out.
Then it's go time.
Hanna? Hanna.
- How much did Caleb get? - I don't know.
He said he was up most the night.
It's not like we expected decrypting files from A's phone was gonna be easy.
- Is Caleb still asking whose phone it is? - Every chance he gets.
I'm lying to him.
We know it wasn't Lucas.
My money's on Garrett, in the greenhouse with the phone.
- Jenna broke up with Garrett.
- Yeah, after.
The point is Caleb is still asking about everything and it's not safe for him to know the answers.
We should just tell him to stop.
Let's just take a look first.
IAN [ON VIDEO.]
: Come closer.
ALISON: You know you wanna kiss me.
[ALISON LAUGHING.]
This-- This was all Caleb was able to get? Wait.
Look.
That's Alison's bedroom.
What's Ian doing there? What's he doing with that camera? Oh, my God.
He's hiding it.
He was recording this secretly.
Wait, recording what? Hey.
What are Jenna and Garrett doing in Alison's bedroom? N.
A.
T.
Club field trip? Ian and Garrett are the founding members.
- The one missing-- GARRETT: Where's Jason? IAN: He's passed out.
A six pack and weed'll do that to you.
So why the emergency call? I just left Alison.
Tried to get her to hand over our videos, she wasn't going for it.
JENNA: Is that the only thing she wasn't going for? - Look, shut up, Jenna.
- Hey.
This is your fault, Ian.
I knew you'd go too far on those videos.
That's why I bailed on this messed up club.
IAN: Oh, yeah? Well, welcome back.
Now help me find them before that bitch shows up.
So Caleb has seen this? He couldn't have gotten it without seeing it.
Now you know why I'm freaking out.
The closer we get to finding out what happened-- The closer Caleb gets to the top of A's hit list.
He, she, it has messed with our relationships.
- Toby, Ezra, Samara.
- Look.
GARRETT: Check this out.
- What is it? It's just an old box.
- That's weird.
ARIA: Wait, that's the box Jason gave me.
Caleb's done.
I'm telling him today.
So, what does this mean? Well, in case we had any doubts, the N.
A.
T.
Club, Jenna included was in Rosewood.
In Alison's bedroom.
The night Ali was murdered.
- When did you get this? - While you were downstairs.
EMILY: So Aria and Hanna haven't seen this.
[TRUCK APPROACHING.]
- Thought you were keeping your distance.
- I was, okay? I am.
It's just that I slipped up last week and I kissed him.
Now Toby thinks that we're back together and I can't even-- [PHONE RINGING.]
Talk to him.
- Well, what do you want me to say? - I don't know.
That I'm not here.
I'm in the shower.
- Don't make me lie to him, Spencer.
- Please.
- Hey.
TOBY: Hey.
Is Spencer around? Um She's unable to come to the phone right now.
I came by to pick up the rest of my tools.
- Spencer's dad-- - Yeah, I heard.
- How's Spencer? - Okay.
She misses you.
I miss her.
She's been kind of confusing lately.
The other day, she said she was close to telling me something.
To explaining what's been happening.
Things have changed since then.
- Can you tell me anything? - No.
I don't wanna get between you and Spencer.
I don't think this is about me and her.
- I think it's something else.
SPENCER [WHISPERS.]
: Emily.
Just, please-- Just-- Just get off.
Spencer's dad is here.
You should probably come back later.
When he's not here? Or when Spencer's not here? [SIGHS.]
ARIA: And he just drove away? - What else was he supposed to do? I totally shut him down.
No, you're protecting somebody that you love.
- It's kind of romantic.
- No.
It's the opposite of romantic.
It's safe.
That's what we all need to be.
Hey, well, at least Toby still wants to talk to you.
Because that was definitely not the case last time I saw Ezra.
Which makes me wonder was that the last time I'll ever see him? - No, Aria.
- Yeah, but how do I know that? - He won't see me, talk to me.
- You need to give him time.
I gave him time.
At the play, him sneaking out of the theater? That was time.
Now I just really want some answers.
- How? - Without your parents knowing? Without A knowing? Huh.
The beard.
- The what? - Holden.
Aria's beard.
It means he'll go out with her, but not really - because he's not really interested.
- I know what it means.
He's gay.
He's not.
I've known him since I was 5.
He might not have known when he was 5.
Look, has he ever tried to kiss you? No.
ALL: Gay.
Uh HOLDEN: Hi.
- Hi.
So how's the whole "reintegration into American society" thing going? Okay.
- You helped, actually.
- I did? How? It's probably better you don't know.
Okay.
But I owe you one.
How's that? Well, we're still on for tomorrow night, right? Well, I was counting on it.
Good.
Yeah, because that'll help me.
With your friend who walks out on plays? I think it's best that you don't know.
- Heh, heh.
I'll call you later.
- I'll answer.
Bye.
Holden-- [INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE.]
[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE.]
You're right.
Hey.
Forgot your keys.
Oh, man, I totally know what that's like.
You get so wrapped up in something, you forget where you are.
Two hours later, it's like, "Where did I park my car? Did I even drive here?" Thanks.
EMILY: On the video, Garrett looked in the box and saw something weird.
Wouldn't you like to know what it was? No.
Look, we've already seen what we needed to see.
All of our suspects in the same place at the same time in Alison's room, talking about how much they hated her.
Just hand the drive to the police.
We should be closing things, not opening-- - There's something in here.
- What is that? "It's my turn to torture you.
" Okay, that's creepy.
"Think you're safe on the outside, but you're not when I'm on the inside.
" "Scared yet? You should be, bitch.
" These notes are starting to sound familiar.
"Next time it'll be your face, not this pumpkin.
" - It looks like it was cut by something.
ARIA: It was.
Don't you guys remember? Halloween.
ARIA: I've never been this way before.
Back alleys and backyards have always been the best way to my house.
Your sister and Ian are so cute together.
- Do you think they'll get married? - I guess so.
They seem perfect for each other.
Yeah, perfectly bored.
HANNA: Ali, someone trashed your porch.
What the hell? ARIA: What does the note say? Who did this? Jason's beer buddies.
Real funny.
I'd better get going.
Yeah, me too.
What's the hurry? Let's make a night of it.
It's already been kind of a long night.
Look, I'm sorry about the prank.
I know I took it too far.
Let me make it up to you guys.
"Next time it'll be your face, not this pumpkin.
" That was the note that Ali got.
ARIA: This is an invitation from Noel Kahn's Halloween party.
As if my memories of that night could get any scarier.
Guys, this note is signed by A.
" A was after Alison too.
Before they were after us.
[SCHOOL BELL RINGING.]
[CHATTERING.]
- Have you talked to her yet? - Not yet.
Hey.
Heard about you and Noel.
People in China have heard about me and Noel.
Don't let it get to you, all right? The guy's a total tool.
- I thought we were friends.
- You and Noel? - He doesn't even know what a friend is.
- No.
You and me.
- I've been calling you for two days.
- Mona-- You can have this back.
I'm done with it.
Sorry, no returns, no exchanges.
Take it.
Maybe the next girl you decide to dump will like it better than I did.
- I am so sorry, Mona.
- Just leave me alone.
No.
You are the worst person for you to be around right now.
That didn't come out right.
Look, Noel's not worth it.
It's not like anyone with half a brain ever trusted him.
- Hanna.
- I'm just saying he's a bad guy and you deserve way better.
I never knew anyone who could lie like that.
And it was second nature with him.
It's those eyes.
You look into them, and you're just, like, hypnotized.
You're saying is he could be a really good villain.
[CHUCKLES.]
Look, I know what you need.
Me, you, Rive Gauche tonight.
We'll shut the place down.
[CHUCKLES.]
It's a date.
Ezra.
Hey.
I'm calling from Emily's phone for obvious reasons.
Listen, I really don't wanna think about us being over, but whether we are or we aren't it's something that we should discuss face to face.
So Meet me tonight at 8 in front of the clock by Rittenhouse Square.
If you come, it means that there's still a chance for us, and if not then-- [RECORDING BEEPS.]
[PHONE VIBRATING.]
[SCREAMS.]
[PHONE RINGS.]
No.
[EKG BEEPING.]
When I got the call, no one was sure how badly you'd been hurt, and-- I was lucky.
Your mom came home.
I'm so sorry about yesterday.
- Spencer-- - If you'd gotten your stuff then-- It wouldn't have made any difference.
What happened? I was taking down the scaffolding, and the anchors gave away and, uh You must be the carpenter.
I'm Dr.
Kingston.
Hello, Spencer.
- Hey.
- You two know each other? Yeah, um, Wren used to date Melissa.
Was engaged to her, actually, before something got in the way.
So the x-rays confirm the break, but it's clean, should heal well.
We'll put a cast on it.
You'll need to spend the night.
- Why? - It's routine when there's been a concussion, so don't worry.
[PHONE BEEPS.]
Next emergency.
I'll be back later.
Try and be more careful next time, huh? Spencer.
There something you wanna tell me? [PHONE BEEPS.]
Yeah.
Okay, bye.
- Toby's okay.
- Yeah, for now.
If Jenna is a part of this, do you think she'd hurt her own stepbrother? Okay, Jenna would kill and eat her own mother to get back at us.
- Maybe she's just trying to scare him.
- Or us.
Yeah, well, it's working.
But if Jenna and Garrett broke up, how could she do this to Toby? She must've found a replacement.
Jenna? Why'd you go back to that house? - What? I-- - You were never supposed to go back, Toby.
It is not safe with those girls, with Spencer-- Don't talk about her.
Don't mention her name.
You need to be stronger.
- I don't want any advice from you.
- Who else is there? Hmm? That knows you as well as I do.
That cares about you as much as I do.
Spencer.
You know you'll never be happy with her.
You'll never be at peace.
She's haunted, Toby.
I know a little bit about that.
- You shouldn't be here.
- I'm the only person who should be here.
We're family.
Whether you like it or not.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
- Hey.
- Hey, I've been worried about you.
Yeah, me too.
What the hell is this? - What do you mean? - I decoded another segment.
This is about Alison DiLaurentis' murder, isn't it? - It's complicated.
- Yeah, I can tell.
Hanna, why are you looking into a crime that somebody's already confessed to? Do you think somebody else killed her? In this video? - Caleb-- - Tell me what these videos are all about.
Look, whatever you imagine isn't as bad as it really is.
Hey, I can protect you.
- You just-- You gotta tell me.
- I can't tell you.
- Why? Because I can't handle it? - Because I can't handle it.
- I'm afraid.
- I told you I can protect you.
No, I'm afraid for you.
You just gotta stop working on these videos, all right? They're dangerous.
I get that.
Especially since the people that we're talking about are in this town watching me.
- What are you talking about? - I was working on this today at the café.
I looked up and Officer Garrett was sitting two tables away.
What are you--? Hey.
Hanna, Hanna.
What the hell? I spent hours on that.
I don't care.
You are out of the phone-tech business.
As of now.
How dare you come here? Emily? I'd ask the same of you thing.
- I'm Toby's friend.
- There was when you wanted to be more.
Good thing he didn't feel the same or things would be awfully confusing with Maya, wouldn't they? - You're lucky I don't take that stick-- - Ooh, careful, Emily.
- Misplaced anger can be dangerous.
EMILY: Misplaced? You should've left him alone.
You all should've.
You know how everyone close to you gets hurt.
Are you threatening me? Here? Today? I'm just stating a fact.
Excuse me.
Spencer.
Hey.
Is Spencer okay? I heard Toby Cavanaugh had a bad accident.
Yeah, she's fine, but he broke his arm.
Well, he's lucky.
Yeah.
It seems like it.
So are you, uh, still going on your date with Holden tonight? Mom? It's not a date.
We're just old friends catching up.
Is there a reason you have to go all the way to Philadelphia to catch up? Yeah, I mean, Holden's been, like, in the wilds of Portugal.
I figured his social skills could use a little shock treatment.
So where are you going? I think he said a place called Micelli's.
Oh, Micelli's.
We haven't been there in years.
Stopped there with Holden's family on the way back from the cabin - at Clear Lake.
- Oh, yeah.
I really liked that place.
How come we only went that one year? Well, your father hated that cabin.
He swore nothing could ever make him go back there.
- Really? - So we should leave around 7? Mom, really? You're still driving me? Come on.
I'm not 12.
Date or not, your father is insisting on closer supervision.
So am I.
Okay.
[EKG BEEPING.]
Jenna's right.
I'm putting Toby in danger, and I've always known it.
- We've always done everything we can.
- It's not enough.
It'll never be enough.
I need you to do me a favor.
- Anything.
- No.
Don't be so quick to agree.
If you do what I'm about to ask, you might hate me but this is the only thing I can think of to save Toby.
What do you want me to do? Hey.
Unh.
I told you, it's not that bad.
I'll be home tomorrow.
I've been wanting to talk.
Me too.
Emily, what's wrong? It's Spencer.
What? Is she okay? Before you and she got together, she was seeing someone else.
It wasn't right and she knew it.
But he's back now, and What? It's not right again.
I don't That's not possible.
Why are you telling me this? - Because I can't watch you get hurt.
- No.
Why are you telling me this? Spencer couldn't.
- She's been wanting to for a long time.
- Long time? I'm so sorry, Toby.
Tell me one thing.
Who is it? Okay, so I'll be back at 11.
You kids enjoy yourselves.
Okay.
We will.
Does it bother you? Lying to her? Of course.
But you do it anyway.
Look, in this case, what she doesn't know isn't gonna hurt her.
You trying to convince me we shouldn't do this? No.
Just making sure it's important to you.
- Why? What difference does that make? - Because this is important to me.
Oh, it is to me too.
What do your friends think you're doing with me? - Are you lying to them too? - No.
They know.
They are a little curious about you, though.
- Me? - Mm-hm.
You're a good-looking guy.
You're pretending to go out with me while you're sneaking off somewhere.
Not telling me or your parents who you're seeing - Oh.
So they think I'm gay.
- No.
- Yes.
- No.
Okay, yeah.
- Look, it's just - Aria.
I'm not.
Gay.
- Okay, well, then what are you? - Late.
See you at 11.
Bye.
[THUNDER CRASHING.]
I'm just saying I put a lot of effort into my story.
I'm not denying that.
You're a good writer.
Then why the B? I guess I found it a little unbelievable.
The guy leaves his fiancée to follow a woman he met five minutes ago.
He had to get to know her.
He was his rehearsal dinner.
He was getting married the next day.
Exactly.
- Exactly what? - True love saved him from making the biggest mistake of his life.
- Do you think that's realistic? - I think it's romantic.
Life isn't always romantic.
Sometimes it's realistic.
Sometimes things don't work out the way you want them to.
We are still talking about my story, right, Mr.
Fitz? Yes.
Sorry.
Um - I'll give it another look.
- Thank you.
I guess that's all I can ask for.
"Be bold and mighty forces will come to your aid.
" Excuse me? It's a quote.
I forgot who said it.
But that's what my story's about.
ARIA [ON RECORDING.]
: Listen, I really don't wanna think about us being over but you know, whether we are or we aren't it's something that we should discuss face to face.
So meet me tonight at 8 in front of the clock by Rittenhouse Square.
If you come, it means that there's still a chance for us.
And if not then- [RECORDING BEEPS.]
[BEEPS.]
- Hey there.
- Hey.
Hmm.
Did you and the blender have a fight today? - No, but Caleb and I did.
- Oh.
Okay.
- Want to talk about it? - Not really.
I do.
It's nothing.
Did you ever keep a secret from Dad? Well, apparently not as many as he kept from me.
- Yeah, I guess I kept a few.
- Like what? Remember that time he surprised me by painting our bedroom? Yeah, that weird green color that looked like puke? Yeah, well, he was so proud of the great job he did I didn't have the heart to tell him I hated it.
Anything bigger? Once Steve Anderson made a pass at me.
What? Mom, that's Dad's best friend.
Which is why I kept it a secret after telling Steve that I'd spill it if he ever tried it again.
But I knew your father well enough to know that if I told him, it would hurt him.
And if I didn't, it wouldn't.
What's the big secret you're keeping from Caleb? Did you lie to him? No.
Hanna.
It's nothing.
I have to go meet Mona.
MAN [ON PA.]
: Wheelchair needed in 1412.
You feeling all right? Something I can get you? - Just some answers.
- Yeah, sure.
What's on your mind? You and Spencer.
Oh.
Well, I kissed her.
I'm not gonna deny that.
- Big of you.
- I was under the impression - that you two were over.
- Did she tell you that? Yeah.
She did, actually.
- You should go now.
- Come on, mate.
I'm just saying, I may have broken my left arm, but my right arm's fine.
I can't wait to down a couple shots and flush Noel Kahn out of my system.
- I thought you lost your fake ID.
- I've got another one.
From an old friend.
Ha, ha.
What? Looks like somebody made a new friend.
Double rebound, I guess.
Don't take it so hard.
I'm the one that got dumped.
No, no, I get it.
I just I didn't expect to see those two hooking up.
[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE.]
- Come on.
Let's get out of here.
- Yeah.
Aria.
I didn't know if you'd come.
I didn't either.
- Aria, this is dangerous for both of us-- - I know.
But I'm only worried about you.
I want you to be safe.
To be happy.
And I want you to be sure that this-- That we are what you want.
There's only one place where I can be sure of that.
Where? With you.
- We're crazy.
You know that, right? - Ha, ha.
I know.
So how are we gonna do this? We can't spend the rest of our lives on sidewalks in the rain.
I have an idea.
What do you mean she destroyed the flash drive? She vaporized it.
Nothing left but smoke.
But why would she do that? That was the most important thing.
Obviously it was important, okay? That's why I kept a copy of the files.
- You did? - Yeah.
And I'll keep working them too.
If we keep it a secret from Hanna.
- Why? - Because I love her and I wanna protect her.
Finding what's on that phone is the best way to accomplish that.
No.
I don't wanna lie to Hanna, Caleb.
- And I don't wanna lie to you.
- Yeah, about that.
If I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna need something from you.
- What? - Answers.
Starting with, what is it that Hanna's so afraid of me finding? [CAR HORN HONKS.]
- Hey.
- Hey.
Where's Holden? Uh He Aria? Sorry.
Sorry.
Aria really wanted dessert but we didn't want to miss you, so I went myself.
You were off by a block, by the way.
Oh, heh.
My mistake.
You know me and my directions.
- Peanut butter and chocolate, right? - Uh-huh.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Coffee or vanilla? I went for the classics.
Thank you.
- So, what exactly did you tell him? SPENCER: As little as possible.
Jenna's trying to frame us for Alison's murder.
Garrett's helping her.
Despite what the police believe Ian's confession probably doesn't tell the whole story.
The rest was something all of us needed to talk about.
All of us, except Hanna.
I don't feel better about this than you, but we did the right thing.
Caleb knows what he has to know.
Maybe what he got won't be any good.
We won't have to use him anymore.
So we're hoping that nothing's on here? [COMPUTER BEEPS.]
Dance, you little bastards.
- That's weird.
- What? What's inside it? - Hey, shh.
Someone's here, someone's here.
- Alison.
GARRETT: You're going down.
IAN: No, no, no.
We're all going down.
What? You taped us doing this? What-? What is wrong with you? Now we know why he hid the camera.
IAN: Once you're a member of the club, you're always a member.
Just making sure you're in as deep as I am.
JENNA: She's coming upstairs.
That's Alison about to walk in and find them.
This could be the last few seconds of her life.
[STATIC NOISE.]
I'm not sure I want Caleb to get any more.
Yeah, but if he does? Maybe we really can give this to the police.
Maybe everything can finally be over.
"Over" over? [TRUCK DOOR CLOSES.]
I thought Toby was getting back from the hospital later today.
So did I.
Where'd he go? Why would he leave the keys? ARIA: Spence, what does it say? He's gone.
