Pretty Little Liars 4X12 thoughts

                       Hanna: "So if my mom gets off"

                       Aria: "Cece's coming for us"

                       Emily: "I say bring it! Maybe then she'll leave our parents alone"

                       Spencer: "Or Did she just declare World War A"

Wow OMG holy s@#t my jaw is still on the floor. I can't believe what I just saw.

The show starts off with the girls at Spencer's house when a package is delivered to the doorstep. It is a box of 4 magic 8 balls and each Liar has their own ball. When shaken each ball has a different message in it but all together it reads out.

"If she goes free, you'll hear from me. Kisses - A"

So after Travis picks Ashley out from a line up at the police station. Ashley is in the clear and all of her troubles are finally over.

Not long after that the girls get another package from 'A' and this time it’s a coffin with the Mona doll inside, then all of a sudden they get a text from 'A'

"Hanna won, so Mona loses. Find her before the cops or they'll think you killed her. -A"

Caleb is now with the girls and an artist's sketch of Cece appears on the TV in relation the Wilden murder. But the girls are worried about Mona. Hanna is on the phone to Radley and they say that Mona is no longer a patient there.
Spencer brings up Wren because he has privileges there. So Spence goes to Wren's house but he is not there but Jenna's car is outside. But we see Shana looking through the window at Spencer. (Why is Shana staying at Wren’s?)

Later Toby after looking at a box of his memories with his mum leaves his apartment and goes downstairs but before he gets all the way down he sees Shana and when she gets up to leave she drops a piece f paper with Wren's London address n it. He meets with Spencer and it looks like that Wren and Melissa are moving in together. Say what!? But while there they take the time to sort out their issues. So now Spoby are all happy again.

At school Mr Fitz thanks Aria for just listening and being there for him. Fast forward to her date with Jake and he falls asleep during movie, I can see why he wanted to just a dinner and a movie instead of going to a poetry thing. But I have to admit Ezra is looking pretty good right now.

Paige being worried about Emily wants her to stay at her house while this Mona thing is happening. So Ems does but before they do they go to French club because that's where Mona likes to go. But she isn't there; she was supposed to bring a casserole. Who misses their own welcome back party? A French one no less.

So after Jake leaves Aria goes to the poetry thing but she arrives too late but Ezra is still there. Now they start to bond about Aria's old poem that she wrote which was about Ali but she didn't know it at the time. Soon after Aria kisses Ezra and redcoat saw.

Hanna is with Caleb staking out Mona's house but she falls asleep in his arms. Who falls asleep during a stakeout?

Next morning the girls get another package from A. (A has been busy this episode) with a hand saw and a message.

 

                         "Watch me make a girl disappear. Kisses - A"

Toby replaces Caleb in the stakeout but it doesn't look like anyone is home.

So the girls are heading to Ravenswood for 'The Great Sharlamane's Magic Show.' Because after a web search that is the nearest magic show to them.

Ravenswood is still looking gloomy as ever and once arriving the Liars heads straight to the magic show. Sharlamane wants a volunteer and he has eyes only for Aria. Not Spencer just Aria. But while the magic show is going on Emily disappears. Then they once again get a text from 'A'.

"Leger De Main. Kisses bitches -A."

So thanks to the all knowing Spencer Leger De Main means Slight of Hand.

Uh Oh looks like 'A' has Em.

Emily calls Aria freaking out and she thinks that she is trapped in a coffin. Aria puts her on speaker and Em then hears a saw which means the girls better find her fast. The girls manage to track her down but they can't open the wooden box that she is in. Things start to look worse for Em because the box is getting closer to the saw. But to everyone's surprise Redcoat stops the saw and saves Emily's life.

Now things start to get confusing. Turns out that there are two Redcoats so Spencer and Aria split following a different one while Hanna stays to help get Emily out of the box. Spencer follows the first Redcoat who she thinks is Ali to an apartment while Aria is doing battle with the other on the rafters, and I do mean battle. Aria and Redcoat get physical but Aria manages to kick Redcoats sorry A thanks to Jake and his Martial Arts training. We then learn that Aria was fighting Cece. So Cece is one Redcoat but when she tries to flee she manages to fall to her death. Ok not death but the girls think that she is dead until her body disappears. This prompts Hanna to say my fave line from the episode.

"God that bitch has nine lives."

Spencer then leads the others to the apartment that Redcoat led her to and turns out that it is 'A's lair. DUN DUN DUN but wait there's more. While the girls are in there, someone is watching them. Hmmm me thinks Redcoat Ali or possibly 'A'. The reason why 'A' is everywhere is because 'A' IS everywhere. 'A' has a computer network that seems to be monitoring the whole of Rosewood. 'A' knows all of their secrets and has a timeline of everything that has happened. While looking around Hanna takes something off of 'A's desk and she thinks that 'A' is a guy because she finds men’s clothes. So could 'Board shorts' be 'A'.'A' also thinks that Ali is alive and that she is Redcoat and that she will appear at some party at 11pm to celebrate Ravenswood's history. As if the place wasn't creepy enough now we get to hear about it's creepy history too.

Meanwhile Toby followed Shana and found an interesting figure. That figure being Mona. So she is safe and sound but why were they meeting? Are they on the same team? And who was Shana talking about when she said "she has no choice" could it be Jenna?

After leaving the lair Mrs. Grunwald seems to be waiting for them and she tells them her history with Alison. She was the one that pulled Ali from the ground after being buried alive. But when she went to get help from the hospital Ali was gone. So this pretty much confirms that Alison is ALIVE. She warns them not to go to the party but they stay wanting answers. Also Caleb gets on a bus thinking it was heading to Rosewood but Uh oh it's heading for Ravenswood instead.

'A' then returns to their lair and then we learn that Ezra is 'A'!!! Yep Mr. Fitz himself WTH WTF but then something hit me. He has his family's money to set up an operation like this. So did he try to kill Emily? And Aria? And Mona? How does he know about Toby's mum? Is he 'board shorts?' has he killed anyone? So much for Ezria, sorry Ezria fans.

In the last scene we see 'A's costume for the party and it is some kind of costume with a creepy gas mask.

So everyone what was your thoughts on this episode?
Has your mind exploded as well?
Are you glad Mona is safe?
What is Shana doing with Mona?
Are you still rooting for Ezria?

Well so much is going through my mind. I don't think I will be able to process it all by Halloween.
