Pretty Little Liars s02e20 Episode Script

CTRL:A

NARRATOR: Previously on Pretty Little Liars: That's what you got from Ali's claim ticket? ARIA: Check it out.
SPENCER: What is that? - A phone number.
- Call it.
MAN [OVER PHONE.]
: I don't wanna do this on a phone.
Will you meet me? HOLDEN: Are we still on for Saturday? I just don't know if I can handle it if you're hurting yourself.
- What do the DiLaurentises have on us? - It's complicated.
My dad, is he your father too? - Let's go home.
- What is home? That's a joke.
Stop working on these videos.
They're dangerous.
The people that we're talking about are in this town watching me.
GARRETT: Take this home and burn it.
Is it page five? There's nothing left that can link us to that night.
MAN [OVER PA.]
: Our championship Rosewood Sharks are running a little behind but they'll be here any minute.
I thought you couldn't get online in this cave.
I've got a hot spot in my pocket.
Yeah, I know, but what does that have to do with computers? I am the Wi-Fi.
Koo-koo-ca-choo.
[BOTH CHUCKLE.]
SPENCER: Where are they? I told my mom we'd be at the library - so that's covered.
- Good.
Are you sure you wanna do this tonight? Are you kidding? We have to find out what this guy knows about Ali.
And why his number was in Ali's-- Vivian's coat.
And we finally got this meeting set, so it's gotta be tonight.
We'll have your back the whole time.
I know.
So my mom talked to your mom.
I mean, it wasn't just one sleepover.
It's been a whole week.
My mom just wants to know why you're not going home.
I just-- I can't deal with my family right now.
Can I help? [EXCITED CHATTERING.]
[CROWD CHEERING AND APPLAUDING.]
- Yeah! - Yeah! EMILY: Here, take this.
- Okay.
Hey.
Hi.
[BOTH CHUCKLE.]
I know, the sign's kind of nerdy.
The sign's beautiful.
- Way to go, champ.
EMILY: Thank you.
Em, my mom said that we can have the team party at my house.
- That's great.
HANNA: Yeah.
Caleb Rivers? I've got a court order here to impound your laptop.
What for? Somebody's been hacking into school files.
I traced them back to your lP address.
You think if I did something like that, I'd leave a trail? We'll find out.
Come on, hand it over.
Any passwords we're gonna need? Court order says you can take the machine.
It doesn't say anything about what's in my head.
- What was that about? - Don't worry about it.
"Don't worry about it"? He took your computer.
They couldn't get into it with a can opener.
Be right back.
What just happened? Garrett took Caleb's computer.
Court order.
[CELL PHONES CHIMING AND RINGING.]
Why aren't you more freaked out? Because you're freaked out enough for both of us.
Hey, I didn't do what they think I did.
They're just fishing.
They made it up.
- There's nothing on my laptop.
- The information from the phone? I keep it on flash drives, I back it up online.
If there was shady stuff, it wouldn't matter.
Yes, it would.
It does.
No, they couldn't get through my firewall.
Not without my help.
Caleb, you know how I was worried about something bad happening to you if you kept decoding that stupid phone? - Yeah.
- Well, this is it.
Someone broke into your computer and put stolen files on your hard drive where you wouldn't find them.
And I think that someone might be Garrett.
How do you know that? I just do.
So can't you just go online and do that magic thing where you remotely hack into your computer and erase the bad stuff? It's a real thing, right? Yeah.
Yeah, I can do that.
Holden, I told you.
I can't cover for you unless I know what it is you're doing - and why it involves baggies full of-- - I do Tang Soo Do.
- What? - It's a martial art.
It's Korean.
I compete and my parents don't like it.
They forbid me to keep training.
Are we talking, like, basements, naked light bulbs, people missing their teeth? No, everyone's got teeth.
Holden, I'm serious.
Okay, that bruise was pretty intense.
All better.
And those pills were just some pain meds I never even used.
It's really not a big deal.
And there's a tournament coming up.
It's a big one and tomorrow night's the qualifiers.
I-- I can't miss it.
So please.
This is really important to me.
Okay.
All right.
It's a date.
All the letters are initials of cities in the order that I lived there.
So, Seattle, Wilmette, et cetera.
And I also alternate capital letters.
One-one-zero-five? What's that? Nothing.
Just a number.
It's good to use numbers in your password.
There was an exclamation point after it.
Yeah, well, it's good to use punctuation too.
Once I'm logged in, I can search and destroy all the files I want.
- Crap.
- What? What's wrong? I can't connect.
Well, don't you have your hot thing? Spot, yeah, but the problem is on the other end.
They haven't messed with my computer yet or they're smart enough to keep it offline.
- Why are you having drinks with Noreen? - Why do you think? - Aria needs a ride into the city.
- Holden? - Mm-hm.
- When did that happen? About 15 minutes ago.
Well, I hate Noreen.
I know.
That's why I didn't invite you.
That one goes to the book fair.
You know, if you were open to letting Aria take the train I wouldn't have to find ways to kill time in Philadelphia.
Or Aria and Holden could just do something right here in town.
Byron, when are we gonna loosen the leash a little? Hasn't she won back some of our trust? She stopped seeing Fitz.
She's dating a nice kid we've known since pre-school.
Second-guessing her every move is starting to feel extreme.
No, dating your English teacher is extreme.
All right? We are being parents.
- We're being-- - I'm sorry.
I'm just not ready yet, okay? I'll come back for the other box.
[GIRLS GIGGLING.]
Yeah.
Bye.
[JASON CLEARS THROAT.]
I've been looking for you.
Your office is closed.
Yeah, I only work a couple of hours a day.
Getting the place up and running again.
Did your father send you? No, I haven't talked to him.
You still don't believe it.
I believe it.
That's why I haven't talked to him.
I haven't talked to anybody about this.
Well, you better talk to your dad.
No, I'm talking to you.
I didn't come back here to get between you and your father.
- Well, it's a little late for that.
- I'm sorry.
I really am.
This was never about hurting you.
Well, what is it about? Please, Jason.
I mean, you left town the night that I was arrested.
So, what made you come back now? It was another one of those boxes Ali liked so much.
I found it under the floorboards of her room at my grandmother's.
"When I hide things, they stay hid.
" Something Ali used to say.
There were letters to my mom from your dad.
Love letters? Couple of those.
Then I'm born and he starts sounding like a lawyer: "In light of recent events Under the current situation" That's my dad.
There was something else in that box.
Fifteen thousand dollars in cash.
In envelopes.
Five thousand in each one.
Where would Ali have gotten that kind of money? Think about it.
[SCOFFS.]
She found those letters and figured out what they meant.
And then she blackmailed my father to keep from blowing up both families.
I know.
It's hard to believe when you say it out loud.
Yeah, but if anybody had the nerve to do something like that, it was Ali.
[OVER RADIO.]
Slow you down [BELL DINGS.]
I haven't let myself go yet 'Cause I am still trying To be me So you're a friend of Vivian's? Yeah.
How much money does she owe you? Vivian owes you money? JONAH: She owes me a lot more than money.
She owes me a job.
She almost owes me a girlfriend, thanks to you calling that number.
You said that she cost you a job.
What did she do? I worked at Allegheny Cellular, Human Resources.
Your friend came in asking for a job, but she didn't want a job.
She wanted information, said she'd pay for it.
What kind of information? I get it.
You're Alison.
Vivian told you about Alison? She said she had a friend named Alison who was getting texts from somebody.
The number was blocked and she wanted to know where they were coming from.
She'd pay to find out.
Did you find out? Yeah, I found out.
I made the mistake of telling your pal before I had the money in my hand.
She dropped off the map, I got fired for accessing restricted information.
What did you find out about the person that was sending those texts? Are you listening? I did not get paid.
I want what she owes me.
How much does she owe you? Two thousand.
Two thousand dollars? JONAH: That's the price today.
But it could go up depending on market conditions.
Don't ever use that number again.
If you wanna do business, call me here.
Oh, who do I ask for when I call? Tell them you wanna talk to Jonah.
He thought I was Ali.
He doesn't know she's dead.
If he finds out, won't be enough money to make him talk.
If this Jonah had real information, Ali might have known who A was.
And that's why she was killed.
We have to find out what he told her.
What are we supposed to do? Throw a bikini car wash? Even if we could talk Prudence Finn into a tube top we wouldn't raise enough money.
ARIA: Spencer? My account has been on lockdown since we were arrested.
So where are we gonna get the money from? Do you have any idea when I can get the thing back? Because I'm a high-school student.
I've got papers to write and homework to do.
Plus it cost a lot of money.
Plus it's mine.
Caleb, was that the cops? What did they say? - Said I could get my laptop back today.
- Really? - Yeah, if I cooperate.
- What are you gonna do? [SIGHS.]
So we're on for tonight.
I worked things out on my end.
Good, because we really gotta talk about that interview.
I need to get back to Shaffer tomorrow at the latest.
Yeah, we'll talk about it.
Look, I know this is a huge opportunity for you.
No, that's not what matters.
It's what your dad thinks if I don't take it.
Yeah, well, maybe he should just move to New Orleans.
[CHUCKLES.]
We should have this conversation face-to-face.
I don't really know where.
I do.
There's this tiny hole-in-the-wall vegan place that just opened up.
- Center City.
- Wait.
- A restaurant? - Lower your expectations.
It seats two.
- Oh, so it's bigger than your apartment.
- Heh.
- What's it called? - Chez Mirabelle Vegan Bistro.
French food? Wow, you must really like me.
Aria, it's French vegan food.
I must really love you.
[CHUCKLES.]
WILDEN: Tempting, isn't it? [CHUCKLES.]
The IT guys say not to open it.
Could connect to the wireless.
Your-- You guys having any luck getting in? Not yet.
Might have to send it to Pittsburgh.
I bet we could get the kid to talk.
So, Alison DiLaurentis' murder investigation turned up a new piece of evidence.
And it has to do with the missing page of the autopsy report.
Tell me what you think is going on in this photo.
[CAR ALARM CHIRPS.]
[JULES LARSON'S "FOOLISH LOVE" PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS.]
Can't we get him a lawyer or something? [PHONE RINGING.]
I know you wanna help, but Caleb's got a family now.
- If he needs legal help-- - He won't ask them.
He doesn't want them to know.
He barely talks to me about it.
Hello? Baby, use your head It's just a crack in the floor above - I come bearing fruit.
- Great.
Breathin' down my neck Something wrong? Um Can we talk? Sure.
And I can't pretend - I'll be down in a minute.
- Okay.
- Hey, Maya.
- Hey.
Put down the icing.
We've been invited to the police station.
- What do you mean, it was an old joint? - Old, as in pre-getting busted and packed off to Camp Straight and Narrow.
Where did your mom find it? We've been getting stuff out of storage.
Boxes from when we lived in the DiLaurentis house.
I even found a box of Ali's stuff.
It was in junk from my dresser.
Half an old dried-up joint.
You explained that it was from before? They don't believe me.
Em, my folks are gonna send me back to True North.
We'll talk to your parents.
We'll explain it.
They can't just ship you off again.
- Emily-- - No.
I'm not gonna say goodbye to you again.
Never.
- How you been, Ashley? - Fine.
It's been a while.
Doesn't feel that way to me.
I called you in to talk about Alison's murder investigation.
Copies of a particular page of her autopsy report have been stolen.
We've been looking into it and we found this.
This is from a security camera outside the morgue.
Anything you can tell me about that photo, Hanna? Okay, it's almost time for them to give me my own parking space.
And why weren't Emily and Spencer and their parents called in as well? Hey, you may not have to answer his questions but you're gonna answer mine.
What were you doing in those outfits? - We put them on as a joke.
- A joke? We dared Spencer to go into the morgue.
I didn't know there were files in there.
I already told you, I know when you're lying.
We did not take that page.
Mom said that Spencer just left.
- She go home? - No, to Hanna's.
Em's throwing a victory party for the swim team.
So where are you and Holden headed off to this time? Some new arcade.
They're supposed to have all these cool vintage games, "Ms.
Pac-Man," "Pinball.
" - Oh, that sounds fun.
- Yeah.
And what time is Mom taking you? - Oh, now-ish.
- And you'll be home? At 11, Dad.
You meeting any other friends there? Nope, it's just me and Holden.
And some nerdy gamers with very creative facial hair.
ELLA: Are you holding her up? No, she's all yours.
Um Maybe it's time you and Holden started hanging out a little closer to home.
Holden just likes going into the city.
There's a lot more to do there.
Museums and street fairs.
There's more than just one restaurant.
Yeah, but from the way his mom talks I'm surprised they're okay with him being that far away all the time.
Far away? It's an hour.
You know what I mean.
She's worried about him.
- And if something happens and he's-- - What? Mom, what would happen? Honey, he has a heart condition.
He's talked about that with you, hasn't he? Yeah.
No, yeah.
Yeah, of course he has.
Okay, well, you know, think about it.
[OVER SPEAKERS.]
All the other kids The cops called them down there? - Which cops? - I don't know.
There was a note on the counter when I came downstairs with Maya.
Better run, better run [SIGHS.]
I'm going upstairs, trusting you to keep an eye on everything.
Okay.
Hey, what's going on with Caleb? I don't know.
That's not why we were called down there.
Wilden's back.
He still thinks that we had something to do with Ali's murder.
There's a photo of us outside the coroner's office looking for page five.
A was following us? No, security cameras.
There's an investigation going on.
He said copies of that page are missing.
Copies? As in every copy? If the cops don't have it, then it had to have been an inside job.
- Garrett.
- Officer Two-Face will open that laptop.
I mean, what if Caleb goes to jail? It's gonna be all my fault.
It's not gonna happen.
What are you doing? Jonah knows something that could help us figure out what happened.
Wilden is just gonna keep on coming after us.
So we need to find out who killed Alison so we can prove it wasn't us.
Unless you found $2000 while I was out Where are you going? Home.
[SIREN WAILING.]
HOLDEN: There was some weird energy in that car.
Is your mom starting to wonder? No.
No, they're clueless.
I'm this way and I'm gonna be late.
- You know where you're going? - Yeah.
Holden? This tournament, is it dangerous? I get it.
You're still on that bruise.
Don't worry.
I got a rematch against the guy who gave it to me.
It's gonna be epic.
- Wish me luck.
- Bye.
[DOOR CLOSES.]
Spencer? I'm glad you came home.
PETER: Your mother and I were both getting our degrees.
She was in Boston.
Ken and Jessica had an apartment on Willoughby.
Then what happened? What happened is I made a series of very poor decisions.
You make it sound like a business deal.
This wasn't a bad investment.
You cheated and you got somebody else's wife pregnant.
That's what happened.
[SNIFFS.]
Yes.
And she kept the baby.
She kept the baby.
She lied to her husband.
They moved to Atlanta.
And I married your mother.
Just like nothing happened.
Then they moved back.
Yeah, right next door.
You were 5.
First time I saw Jason, he was in front of that house.
He was riding his bike.
And how did that make you feel? Why did they come back? I never asked.
I was afraid she might tell me.
Jason thinks that Alison knew about you long before he did.
- Guess that's possible.
I don't know.
- Really? You sure that you don't know? - What's that supposed to mean? - Jason found some money.
And letters from you.
So did Ali ever ask you for money? - For what? - To keep her quiet.
Spencer, wait.
Look, I know I don't have a lot of credibility with you right now but you have to listen to me.
I never gave money to anyone in that family for any reason.
Um Do you mind if I sit over there? Thanks.
[WOMAN SINGING IN FRENCH OVER SPEAKERS.]
Thank you.
[SIGHS.]
[BAND OF THIEVES' "IT'S ALRIGHT" PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS.]
Hope your mom got Paige coming off the platform.
- She was like a rocket.
- Em.
BOY 1: Amazing.
BOY 2: I know, man it's gonna be awesome.
- Hey, are you okay? - I guess I'm not in a party mood.
Oh? Can we go someplace? After the party? Sure.
[INHALES DEEPLY.]
GIRL: Em, you're missing it.
Go ahead.
I'm okay.
Go.
- What, and you believe him? - Yes, I do.
He must've been really convincing.
I think that he was telling me the truth.
If he didn't give Ali this money, then who did? [SCOFFS.]
- Well, where is it now? The money? - Does he want you to get it back? No, I already told you that he didn't give it to her.
You believe him.
Doesn't mean I have to.
- If Ali was blackmailing somebody-- - Not somebody, Spencer.
- It was your father.
- Well, what if it wasn't? - It has to be him.
- You don't want it to be somebody else.
You want it to be him so that you can keep on being angry.
Yeah, you were raised by lawyers.
[FIOR'S "I'LL WAIT FOR YOU" PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS.]
Maya? Hey, where are you? I thought you'd be here an hour ago.
Yeah, it actually might be a while.
- Well, where are you right now? - Police station.
What, you're gonna talk to them? I don't think I have any choice.
So you said Garrett knows how to get in anyway? I don't know.
I think so.
Hanna, listen to me.
I'm in a really hot spot right now.
- I know, Caleb- - Hanna, I need your help.
This way.
[PEOPLE CHATTERING.]
[PEOPLE GRUNTING.]
MAN 1: Right, left.
Come on.
Perfect.
MAN 2: Come on, get that leg up.
One straight, one-- Come on, yeah.
That's it.
Come on.
What are you doing here? What's wrong with your heart? Excuse me? My mom says you have some kind of condition.
What are you doing? Is this some death wish? Could you just keep your voice down? - What did your mom tell you? - Doesn't matter.
I wanna hear from you.
What am I supposed to say when you don't make it back because somebody kicked you in the chest? That's not gonna make my heart stop, Aria.
I have an abdominal aortic aneurism, okay? What--? Tell me what that means.
It means that I gotta live with it.
It could rupture whether I'm out doing what I love or I'm at home playing Apples to Apples with my parents.
I'm not gonna spend the rest of my life sitting in front of a TV.
Especially when there's a chance it's gonna be shorter than everyone else's.
But not telling your parents that you're doing this it's really, really messed up, Holden, okay? And I know I'm lying to mine too, but I'm not taking my life into my own hands.
Look, sometimes what people believe is best for you is not what is actually best for you.
MAN 3: This is competition night.
MAN 4: Gentlemen, line up.
Turn, face the table.
MAN 5: Come on, Holden.
MAN 6: And back.
MAN 4: To your positions.
Bow to each other.
Fighting stance.
WILDEN: We're glad we didn't have to contact any of your family in California.
I know that would have been hard on you, the way this sort of thing looks.
You don't have to call them.
I didn't do anything wrong.
You asked me to come in, here I am.
I wanna watch you log in.
And make sure there's no funny business.
Okay.
You sure you want me to show him what's on here? Start typing.
[DOOR HANDLE RATTLING.]
[KNOCK ON DOOR.]
- Hey.
- I got your SOS.
What's wrong? Tell me you know how to hack into computers.
No.
That's what Caleb was for.
Caleb is at the police station now, cooperating with this whole investigation.
Unless we hack into his hard drive and delete all the files A planted he's screwed.
Okay.
Do you know his password? [SIGHS.]
I did.
That wasn't an old joint your mother found.
It wasn't a new joint, it just wasn't that old.
Why would you lie to me? I'm a guest in this house and my teammates are in-- Oh, God, please, no more about the teammates.
- What's wrong with them? - Nothing, nothing.
They're perfect.
- Maya-- - You're better at fitting in than I am.
- I thought you didn't care about that.
- Yeah, well, I'm pretty convincing.
Listen, we can still talk to your parents.
- I won't go back to True North.
- We'll work it out.
No way I'm going back there.
I've got friends in San Francisco.
You can't just run away.
You could come with me.
[INGRID MICHAELSON'S "PARACHUTE" PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS.]
- I can't do that.
- Not even for me? No, I guess you couldn't.
Not with the team counting on you.
[CAR HORN HONKS.]
[CELL PHONE RINGS.]
Okay, it's the first initials of every city he's ever lived in.
Seattle, Wilmette, Salt Lake, Denver, Allentown, Rosewood.
- In that order? - Yes? Oh, and he alternates capital and lowercase letters.
This is almost as complicated as my password.
- Any punctuation? - Yes.
An exclamation point after the last four numbers.
Last four numbers? There are four more numbers? Okay, what are they? REFEREE: Ready? Hup! Judges' call, on this side.
Ready.
[COMPUTER CHIRPING.]
Stand over there.
Go.
[WILDEN CLEARS THROAT.]
SPENCER: What else could it be? We have one more try until we're locked out of the system.
- Just think, Hanna.
- I am thinking.
This is me thinking.
And molting.
You said one-one-something-five.
One-one-something-five.
One-one-- That is not helping.
Is it a code? Is it a date? Or a part of a phone number? Is it a birthday? Is it an anniversary or? - Oh, my God.
We're in.
We did it.
- Yeah.
- Hanna? - Yes? What do we do now? [GRUNTING.]
REFEREE: Break.
MAN: Break! REFEREE: Behind the line.
Judges' call, on this side.
Ready.
Hup! [GRUNTING.]
REFEREE: Back to your sides.
HANNA: There are a million files on here.
SPENCER: It's like looking inside of his brain.
Which one is it? SPENCER: It's gotta be Hefty.
That bitch.
This is it.
Social Security numbers, credit card information-- - Student records? - Spence, how much is on here? Somebody really wants Caleb out of their way.
[GRUNTING.]
Break.
Break! Break! I said, break.
All right? Judges' call, right hand.
- The folder's clean.
- Try the next one.
Be sure to check out my video selection.
SPENCER: We're taking too long.
Control-A.
- I'm going as fast as I can.
- Not fast enough.
Just control-A.
- Control A.
- I'm trying to! No, hit control-A.
On the keyboard! - Files are disappearing.
- What did you do? Nothing.
I just clicked on it.
You must have done something.
Typed in a code or-- I told you, I was hacked.
Probably got a virus or something.
[GRUNTING.]
REFEREE: Stop.
Time.
Back to the line.
Face the table.
Ready and bow.
Winner, red side.
MAN: Yeah! [CROWD CHEERING.]
[PEOPLE CHATTERING.]
HOLDEN: You stayed.
Didn't you have a date? We rescheduled.
I'm not used to having an audience.
It's nice.
Maybe you can come to the next-- No, thank you.
You were amazing.
I still think you're an idiot, though.
Look, I get not wanting to rot in front of a TV but this can't be what the doctor ordered.
No, he recommended gardening.
This is better.
[CELL PHONE RINGING.]
Dad, hey, what's up? Yeah, yeah, I'm just at the arcade with Holden.
Yeah, I know, sorry, it's kind of loud in here.
Um Sure.
He wants to talk to you.
Hi, Mr.
Montgomery.
Yeah, I'm sorry to bother you.
I-- Ella just thought she lost your mom's number, so Thanks, okay? Yeah, you too, Holden.
You did it.
- What? - One-one-zero-five? November 5th? You couldn't have just told me that it was the night that we? - You know.
- Hanna there's an exclamation point.
Let's get out of here.
No.
Let's throw it in his face a little longer.
[KNOCK ON DOOR.]
- He's not here.
- I know.
I checked for his car.
I wanted to talk to you.
- Ahem.
- Look.
If I screwed up before, I am sorry.
They don't have an etiquette book for how people in our situation are supposed to treat each other.
I'm the one who's sorry.
You are? Because you were right, Spencer.
I don't wanna find out Ali blackmailed someone else.
I want it to be him.
- Because? - Because that would make things so much easier.
But there's really nothing easy about this, is there? No, not so far.
You know why we act like this, don't you? Why the two of us always seem to be facing off? Because we're wired the same.
I think I know why Ali needed that money.
- At least a part of it.
- Why? She was looking for someone.
Someone that she was afraid of.
Who? I think that I can find that out, but I'm going to need you to trust me a lot.
A lot? Two thousand dollars worth.
[MACHINE BEEPS OVER PHONE.]
Maya, we have to fix this.
I feel sick about fighting with you.
Please, call.
Okay? Don't do anything until we talk.
I love you.
