Toby Cavanaugh

Toby Cavanaugh is Jenna's older step-brother. She forced him to have sex with her by blackmailing him with threats of lying to their parents and saying that Toby tried to take advantage of her. Jenna is still seemingly interested in Toby, who wants nothing to do with her. Alison and her friends believed that Toby used to spy from his tree house window into Alison's window. One time, Alison and her friends tried to get revenge at Toby, but ended up blinding his stepsister, Jenna Marshall. The girls refer to the incident as "The Jenna Thing." Toby maintains his innocence in Alison's murder, and Spencer even dates Toby. Toby has a tattoo commemorating September 1, the day he ended his relationship with Jenna. In earlier episodes, Toby had been one of the suspects to be "A."

Season 1
In "To Kill a Mocking Girl," Toby reappears at Rosewood High after a yearlong absence – leaving the girls to wonder whether he had anything to do with Alison’s disappearance, or if he is "A."

After swim practice, Ben sneaks up on Emily in the girls locker room and tries to assault her. She tries to push him off nicely, but he gets aggressive, almost violent. Just then, Toby barges in and wordlessly pushes Ben off of Emily. He pounds Ben into the locker until he bleeds, while Emily screams for him to stop. When Ben asks if Toby is the reason she's not into him as much, she tells him to get over himself; it's over.

Later, Emily passes the Cavanaugh House, where she spots Toby sitting on his porch steps alone. She sees him fiddling with motorcycle parts and approaches him. Not quite sure how to state it, she thanks him for saving her in the locker room from Ben. Toby smiles back silently. Then, Jenna's voice is heard from the corner of the porch; Emily hadn't seen her at all. She roughly asks why Emily had thanked Toby twice, but he answers vaguely, leaving Jenna completely dissatisfied.

In the next episode, Toby becomes Emily's lab partner, much to Emily's dismay. Toby notices when Emily slams her lab book shut, though he doesn't know that it is because of the photos planted there.

That night, Toby catches sight of Emily and strikes up a conversation. Emily asks Toby if he saw the pictures in her lab book. It seems that he has, but Toby says he's cool with her not wanting people to know. Toby uses it as a teaching moment to speak to Emily about not being the person people want you to be, but being the person you want to be.

Eventually, Emily and Toby start becoming friends. Their surprising friendship grows even stronger when Toby decides to make Emily a mix tape, complete with a comic book-like sketch of Emily, much to the dismay of a suspicious Jenna.

Emily and Toby schedule to meet, but when Emily arrives at the café, she sees Spencer and Hanna. Too embarrassed to socialize with Toby in front of them, she reluctantly blows him off. Later, the waitress hands Emily the mixed CD Toby has left for her, leaving Hanna to believe Maya made it for her and encourages Emily not to bullied by pursuing a non-conventional relationship. However, Emily takes the hint regarding Toby.

Later the next day, an upset Toby tries to ignore Emily when she comes to sit with him, but gives in when she presents him with a mixed CD of her own. She apologizes for blowing him off, and he accepts.

In "There's No Place Like Homecoming," Toby surprises Emily with tickets to homecoming. She’s nervous to accept because of what her friends may think, but is starting to like him.

Later, the girls discover Toby’s tattoo – "9/01 Free at Last," presumably memorializing the date Alison disappeared. Making them believe he may have something big to do with her disappearance.

At the dance, Toby and Emily arrive at the door. Emily calms Toby who is nervous about making an appearance; when they finally do, the other PLLs, not to mention Maya, are not thrilled.

Later, Toby whisks Emily away to the Chem Lab to confide in her privately about his big secret, which the girls have just uncovered in what turns out to be Toby's file that Hanna retrieved from the psychiatrist. The girls realize what Alison had blackmailed Toby with in order to force him to take the blame for "The Jenna Thing" - she knew about Toby's sexual relationship with his step-sister.

Assuming that this was Toby's motive for murder, they send Emily a text message claiming that Toby killed Alison, making her more and more unsettled. As Toby tries to explain, she pushes him into the cabinet of beakers, injuring him badly before hurting herself as she runs away and trips on the train of her dress, hitting the hard floor and falling unconscious.

Later, Toby drives an unconscious Emily to the hospital and drops her off at the emergency room.

When Emily gets back from the hospital, Aria, Hanna and Spencer mistake Emily’s wounds for an attack by Toby, and quickly inform her of his sordid past with stepsister Jenna to keep her from contacting him again. Later, Jenna visits Emily asking her to bring her Toby's file. The girls, sans Emily, head toward the shed to hide Toby’s file that Hanna stole, but in a panic, Aria decides to throw it in the river instead, and it seems "A" picks it up later.

A day later, Emily discovers cops in front of the Cavanaugh house, with a shaken Jenna in tears – just as she receives a text from "A": "Thanks for getting Toby out of my way." She sees a smashed up motorcycle, but is too afraid to ask if Toby is alive.

In "Keep Your Friends Close," a new piece of evidence (a bloody sweater in Toby's possession that Alison was wearing in the video of the night she got killed) leads the police to officially announce that Toby is wanted for the murder of Alison DiLaurentis, though Emily, Spencer, Aria and Hanna have their doubts that they’ve nabbed the right suspect.

Just as Emily arrives in her car to Mona’s party, Toby pops his head up from the backseat and tells a freaked out Emily he needs to finish telling her what he started at homecoming. With the two alone in the woods, he professes his innocence and claims that he met Alison the night of her death and gave her his sweater when she got cold. Then, apparently, she joined another guy in a car, who Toby did not recognize, and the last time Toby remembers seeing Alison, she was alive. He also explains that the tattoo commemorating September 1 was celebrating his freedom from Jenna, not Alison. He asks Emily to meet him later and not tell anyone she has seen him.

Later, Toby is discovered by the police and arrested when they find him hanging around the church.

In "Salt Meets Wound," Toby is released from jail due to insufficient evidence, but with one caveat: an ankle monitor, keeping him all too close to step-sister, Jenna, who confesses that she turned him into the cops, not the girls.

In "Know Your Frenemies," Spencer sees Toby across the street and crouches down next to a car to watch the townsfolk be mean and judge him. After some little kids run away from him, truly frightened, he runs into an alley to cry, and Spencer seems to pity him for once.

At school. Toby gathers his books from his locker, on which someone has scrawled "KILLER," and is escorted through school by security and/or police. Everyone gives him weird looks and one student calls him a murderer to his face.

In "Je Suis Une Amie," Spencer takes a sudden interest in tutoring Toby, who is still under house arrest. She goes to Toby's home, who is surprised to see her standing on his porch. Spencer gives Toby a French translation of "Catcher in the Rye," having seen him reading the book once before. She explains that the best way to learn another language is to read a book you have already read, but in that other language. She has even devised a schedule for him to catch up. He questions Spencer's motives in helping him, seeing her behavior as a complete reversal. Spencer confides that she thinks that he was framed and now believes that she is being framed too. They commiserate together, and Spencer properly apologizes for suspecting him. They start discussing the evidence from the day Alison disappeared. Suddenly, Toby hears someone (Jenna) shut a window and whispers to Spencer that he isn't supposed to be talking about this. He gives her the slip, thanking her for the book.

However, when Spencer comes by for their session with Toby as scheduled, asks her to leave. Spencer says that she thought they could help each other but he isn't interested and returns the book. Spencer takes the book and Toby goes back in his house. Later, while Spencer is at home, she looks at the book and finds a note from Toby inside, written in Braille.

In "The New Normal," Spencer stops by Toby's house and wants to know if the message was a joke because the whole message just read BAD. He says that it wasn't a joke but he can't talk right now because he has to go see his dad. He tells her to come back on Saturday when Jenna isn't home so they can talk in private.

On Saturday, Spencer visits Toby's home again, but finds the door open when she knocks. She goes snooping into Jenna’s room while she's not home before Toby warns her not to; Jenna remembers exactly where she places things and will know if things are touched. Toby had been on the phone with the District Attorney and therefore couldn't speak up right away as soon as Spencer arrived. He lets her know that the charges are being dropped, as the blood evidence they collected was corrupted, and they can’t go to trial with it. Thus, Toby is no longer under house arrest for the murder of Alison DiLaurentis. He can have his tracking anklet removed as soon as he goes to the Rosewood Police Department. Spencer offers Toby a ride to the station, and he accepts, leaving Jenna rebuffed when he turns down her ride in a taxi with him.

After he gets his bracelet off, he meets Spencer in the woods overlooking Rosewood. She tells him about 214 and wants to know if it means anything to him. He doesn't know but he tells her that he overheard Jenna talking to someone on the phone about her. He says that they better figure out what 214 means for both their sakes.

In "The Badass Seed," Toby is sitting on his porch working on his motorcycle. Emily comes to drop off his French book. He lets Emily know that Jenna was the one who turned him in, putting Emily's fears to rest that Toby think she violated his trust. She asks him to go out sometime, and Toby is cautious, thinking she means in a romantic way, but Emily assures him that she means it only as friends, and the two plan a breakfast date.

Later that night, Toby and Spencer talk at her house to discuss Jenna's and Ian's meeting in school that day. Spencer demands that Toby steal Jenna's phone so that they can uncover what he's hiding. She convinces him that if he doesn't, he is liable to be framed for murder again.

The next morning, Toby goes to Spencer's house. In her kitchen, Spencer makes Toby breakfast, and he hands her Jenna's phone, which he stole the night before; he is afraid of Jenna's reaction. Spencer uses the opportunity to ask Toby why Alison had been so sure that Toby was the one spying on them. Toby is firm that he never spied on anyone; the only thing he can make of Alison's assumptions is that she had something on him.

In "A Person of Interest," Spencer and Toby form an unlikely alliance as the two grow increasingly suspicious of Jenna and her ties to a mysterious room at a local motel. Toby is staying at the motel to escape Jenna's wrath, who knows he took her cell phone and touched her snow globe (actually Spencer's doing). While dropping Toby off, Spencer hears flute music coming from room 214 - the braille numbers. When she peeks through the window into the room, she sees a bag from "Neufelds," the same exact bag Ian mysteriously gave Jenna.

After school, Spencer goes to keep Toby company in his hotel room, not too keen on returning home to her own accusing parents. When Spencer sees a housekeeper pass by in the hallway, she gets an idea and offers her $20 to let them into Room 214. There they find Jenna's glasses on the floor, and the shopping bag in the closet, unfortunately empty.

Sure that Jenna's staying in the motel, Toby and Spencer stake the room out from the room next door. Spencer is hopped up on caffeine, and brings board games to keep them entertained, and also shows Toby an app on her phone which will enable them to listen through the walls. Toby joyfully beats Spencer at Scrabble, and since Spencer's staying overnight was not planned, Toby gives her his shirt to sleep in, keeping the trousers for himself. As he changes in the bathroom, Spencer sees him through the broken door and admires his abs. Later that night, after Toby has fallen asleep, Spencer changes, then gingerly curls up next to him.

Meanwhile, in the motel room, Spencer wakes up first, finding herself wrapped around Toby. She disengages herself and leaves the bed before Toby wakes up, leaving him thinking that they slept far apart from each other. They hear noise from the ice machine outside then flute music coming from 214, but when they open the door, they see it was only an audio recording, and they soon realize it‘s just another set-up by the nefarious "A." The notorious Neufeld's shopping bag is filled with ice, with a note from A telling them they're ice cold on the chase. It may be a set up, but it definitely brings these two closer.

Spencer and Toby part in the parking lot of the motel. Toby is planning to stay another night, and invites Spencer to come back. The two share an unexpected first kiss.

In "Someone to Watch Over Me," After Spencer becomes a person of interest in Alison’s murder, she continues an unlikely relationship with Toby, who is all too familiar with the feeling of being wrongly accused and suspected by the police. He coaches Spencer accordingly, urging her to serve the cops coffee in a bold move acknowledging their presence, yet not being afraid. He says it is crazy that they police think that she hurt Ali, and Spencer is thankful that she has someone on her side, other than her friends.

Later, Toby and Spencer spend comforting time alone, sitting alone in his house discussing running away and what that feels like. Spencer recounts a story from her childhood. When she was 7, she and Melissa got into a huge fight and their parents sided with Melissa. Spencer was so upset, she mad herself a tuna-salad sandwich and ran away... to the movies, where she watched an animated princess film. She returned home when she got lonely only to find that no one even noticed she was missing. Toby asks her to call him first if she ever gets the urge to runaway again. She agrees and they hold hands.

In "Monsters in the End," Toby is working on his motorcycle, when Spencer comes by. Toby knows that Spencer is innocent, but when he sees a cop car pull up closely, he suggests that she leave and offers to visit her in her home later. He picks up on the fact that her parents would rather he not come around, though. So, they agree to meet up at the festival at 7 PM instead. Jenna comes out of the house, then, and calls Toby to drive her to school. It is unclear whether she overheard their date plans.

At the festival, Spencer gets locked in fun house due to a fake text from A. She is released by Ian and then joined by the rest of the family, who are worried about her. She is shaken, but unharmed. Her family leads her home, but Spencer stops following when she catches sight of Toby. Despite her mother’s wishes to come along, she runs straight into Toby’s arms and kisses him

In "For Whom the Bells Tolls," Toby is at Spencer's house, reading a book while she is doing her homework. Spencer says she likes having him here with her. Toby opens a window and turns her coach around. He calls her over and she sits on his lap while he puts his arm around her, enjoying that they have each other.

After a while, Spencer gets a text from her sister, saying that she needs a ride home from the church. Toby tells Spencer that he'll keep Jenna busy like she wants him to, but he wishes he was going with her. She tells him that he's helping her by finding out if Jenna's involved in all of the bad stuff, or not. She then tells him that he is her safe place to land, and that she wants him to stay safe, and they kiss again.

Season 2
In "It's Alive," Spencer's father keeps Toby from seeing Spencer, but Toby later returns at her house at night,scaring Spencer by not knocking on the door to the point of her brandishing a buthcher's knife, but Toby had only been trying to avoid alerting the rest of her family to his presence.

When Spencer gets out from seeing Dr.Sullivan, she sees Toby leaning against his car. They both smile at each other and Toby begins to walk toward her but Jenna comes out from where she was and Toby opens the door for her.

Toby and Spencer plan a serect meeting with the help of Emily. Toby is in Emily's room waiting for her as she tells him about her moving to Teaxs. After Spencer texts her saying she cant make it, Emily says she is sorry and Toby says its okay. Emily also says she is sorry for believing he killed Ali, and the two rekindle their friendship because Emily says she feels like she is leaving four friends, meaning Spencer, Hanna, Toby and Aria.

Spencer hears something outside and grabs a knife while hiding. Toby comes in and she runs up to him and they hug. He says he had to see her, while Spencer calms down. He stays, and the two talk for a while. When he leaves he tells Spencer to lock the doors, and Spencer watches him leave.

In "The Goodbye Look," Toby shows up at school and tells Spencer he is going to get a GED and that he has a job at a construction company. Spencer sits in her car and watches what appears to be Toby being let go. He walks over and says the homeowner saw him and told them they'd fire the company if he wasn't removed. The construction boss did pay Toby the week's salary anyway.

That night, Toby comes to Spencer's house asking to hang out. They drive to the Hills overlooking Rosewood. Spencer tells him about Ian text Melissa and he wished she told him about it. They sit on a rock looking at Rosewood. Spencer asks if she wants him to go to the police, but he says they don't do either of them any good. He pulls her in and she calms down on his shoulder.

In "My Name Is Trouble," Toby comes to the school to drop off his GED paperwork and he tells Spencer he has another construction job with Jason. Spencer doesn't really like that, and makes him promise he won't go inside Jason's house because she doesn't trust Jason. He promises and kisses her.

Spencer comes to visit Toby at work and tries to get him to quit when Jason goes in the house to get a drink, but he tells her he needs the money. He would get a job out of town if he had transportation, but he can't afford it. Spencer buys Toby the used truck he had his eye on. They confess their love to each other and kiss.

In "Never Letting Go," Toby walks Spencer home. The two can't keep their hands off each other. The two even make out in the Hastings doorway. They kiss again, then say goodnight.

Later, at the fashion show, Spencer goes backstage to talk to Toby while he builds the makeup tables. She expresses her frustration with Mona and how she wants to grab her ponytail and yank it really hard. Toby clams her down by saying that Mona had stepped up with she had delt with so things in her life and that they couldnt control them. He says that those things are over now and they can both take a breath. This does calm Spencer down and they kiss.

Later on, while Spencer is giving out swag bags, Toby comes talk to her and compliment her. She thanks him and kisses him on the cheek.Out of nowhere, in walks Mona, who starts barking orders at Spencer. Spencer begins to say something but Toby talks her down and Spencer takes a breath.

In "Surface Tension," Spencer's dad hires Toby to build the nursery for Melissa's baby. Spencer finds him working and begins to flirt with him until her dad comes. Toby shows him some plans he had came up with and Peter seems to like them. Spencer smiles at this because her parents are starting to like Toby. After her dad leaves, Spencer and Toby kiss.

While working in the yard, Toby makes a major find in Spencer's backyard - a broken field hockey stick. When Peter comes by he sees the stick. Toby asks him why it was burried but Mr.Hastings doesnt say anything and leaves.

After he tells Spencer about finding it and the wayher father reacts to it, Spencer thinks that the hockey stick may have been what killed Alison. Toby comforts Spencer when they meet on the outskirts of Rosewood, and she says that her father believes the possible murder weapon was a prop set up by her much like Ian's trophy in "The Badass Seed."

Toby comes back again in "Touched by an 'A'-ngel" to help Spencer go through Ian's things. He discovers thatIan was part of the N.A.T Club. Spencer, who never heard of the club looks through the yearbook to find that Jason and Garrett were part of the same club. Later, Toby and Spencer see Aria and Jason at The Grille. Toby suggests she go inside to talk to Aria, but Spencer knows Aria won't want to listen to what she has to say.

In "I Must Confess," Toby drops Spencer off at school, where she is nervous that Jenna has joined the N.A.T Club. Toby says he can try to find information about it from Jenna, but Spencer says he shouldn't and that it would give Jenna an even stronger motive to break the two up. Toby assures her that it would never happen.

Later in the episode, the two are making out in Toby's truck, when Toby sees a shadow in Jason's house, thus killing the mood. Spencer is fed up, and storms up to the door, but is in shock when her dad comes out of Jason's house. When her dad says that he doesn't have to answer to her, Toby steps in an says that he owes Spencer answers. Spencer acts as a barrier between the two when her dad goes at Toby, and she runs away, making her dad charge at Toby's truck.

In "Over My Dead Body," Toby is at Spencer's house. Apparently, his truck wound up at the mechanic after the brakes stopped working, which alarms Spencer, considering he treats it like his baby. He says that the brake line was cut, and that it probably happened at work. Spencer then gets annoyed when she sees Jason peering through Alison's window, taking the newspaper down from the windows and looking at them, and pulls her curtains together.Toby then asks Spencer if her dad gave her an answer to why he was there that day. She says that he wouldn't tell her, and that she left it at that. Toby then says that she's not the type of person who would easily leave things alone, which leads her to say that he doesn't know her father as well, and to give it a rest.

Later, the two are sitting in Toby's truck, and Spencer admits she lied earlier. He says that he thought they trusted each other. Spencer then says that she can never tell him everything that really happened, which pushes her to tears, as she says that he deserves someone who can be completely honest with him. Before he can say anything, she runs away.

Then, when the Liars are at the police station, Toby, while being restrained by police officers, shouts "I love you" multiple times to a passing Spencer, who has a look of sadness on her face, on the verge of crying again.

In "The First Secret," Emily spots Toby unloading a moving van on her way home. Emily approaches him and notes his subdued mood as he fingers a snow globe. He's bummed that his dad has remarried and that the new wife is moving in with her daughter. Emily asks what the daughter is like, and he responds eerily that she gets whatever she wants.

In the winter premiere, "Through Many Dangers, Toils, and Snares," Toby tries to gift Spencer with a chair that he made. After saying it is beautiful, Spencer tells him that she can't take it. Without completely revealing "A,"Spencer says, "I don't want to look over my shoulder and find you there. What I want is for you to forget about me. If you really want to worry about someone, why don't you worry about your sister and that cop boyfriend of hers?" Toby then leaves, visibly upset.

At the Rosewood-Rollins swim meet, Toby tries to get from Emily why Spencer is acting so strangely, but knowing that "A" is probably watching her, Emily tells him that they are still not speaking. Toby tells her that she doesn't want this to ruin their friendship, and Emily tells him it's not a good time for anyone. After the meet, Toby watches the fight between Spencer, Aria, and Hanna and Emily.

Later at Spencer's house, Toby tells her that even if they don't get back together, he doesn't want to see Emily and Spencer fight considering he cares about them both. Spencer then tries to walk away, saying, "What do I have to do to get you to leave me alone?" Toby then startles her by saying that she's starting to act like Alison did when she was still alive. Spencer says she can't give him answers now, but things will be different by tomorrow.

In "A Hot Piece of A," Spencer comes over Toby's house to talk to him. Toby still seems sullen, but allows Spencer to talk to him anyway. After Spencer says that shutting him out is killingher, Toby asks, "So you came here to tell me that you can't be here?" They exchange a smile and Toby pulls Spencer in for a kiss.

A few scenes later, they take a break from their make-out session when Garrett is arguing on the phone with Jenna.Spencer, clearly more alarmed than Toby, asks why he seems so upset. Toby tells her that their arguing started the night before, that it was supposedly because of her eye surgery, and that Jenna even slammed the door in Garrett's face. What Garrett is saying seems to allude to "A's" activity, however. When Garrett looks over into Toby's car, Spencer quickly ducks, but Toby remains there, making direct eye contact, showing he is not afraid.

Later in the episode, Garrett comes over to the Cavanaughs' house, and Toby is standing there watching him. Garrett asks if anyone was with Jenna when she left, but Toby gives him a somewhat ambiguous answer, only shrugging. As he is questioned further by Garrett, Toby seems to know a lot more about Jenna than Garrett actually does, as Toby knows that she tends to turn on people once she has no use for them anymore. Toby also shows how he still resents Jenna, saying that "maybe she likes [it better in Rosewood], settling scores," which may be an allusion to Jenna taunting the Liars continuously, especially Spencer, most likely due to her relationship with Toby. Garrett seems especially annoyed by this, saying that Jenna is a strong person, and Toby responds by saying, "I never questioned her strength. Only how she uses it."

In "The Blond Leading the Blind," Toby returns, but he believes that he and Spencer are currently together. Spencer, scared by what "A" may do, tells Emily to talk to Toby when he calls Spencer. Emily tries her best not to lie without telling Toby about "A" or how he might be in danger. Toby thinks that Spencer is lying when she saysthat her father is home, and leaves. The next day, he goes to the Hastings' house to pick up some things that he had left. The scaffolding gives away and Toby falls, breaking his arm. Off-screen, Mrs. Hastings finds him and gets him to the hospital.

At the hospital, Wren introduces himself as Toby's doctor. Still unaware that Wren and Spencer had a relationship, Toby suspects that something strange is happening between the two of them. Later on, Jennacomes to visit Toby. He's clearly uspet that she actually came, but Jenna says that she should be the only person to visit him, as she remarks, "No one cares about you as much as I do." When Toby argues that Spencer cares more, Jenna says he should stay away from her, as she's "haunted." Toby says he'd prefer not to take any advice from her, and Jenna leaves.

Spencer is convinced that there's only one way for Toby to stay safe, and sheasks Emily to tell Toby about Wren. Emily ambiguously tells Toby that Spencer was seeing someone else before him, and although it wasn't right, the person was now back and things weren't right again. Before Emily leaves, Toby requests a name of the person.

Wren checks up on Toby later, and asks if he can get Toby anything. Toby asks for some answers. Wren, clearly stunned when Toby brings up Spencer, says that when he kissed Spencer, he thought they were over. After Wren says that, Toby says, "I'm just saying, I may have broken my left arm, but my right arm's fine."

Later, as Toby is getting ready to go home, he looks back and sees Wren, upset about what happened between him and Spencer. At the very end of the episode, Aria, Spencer, and Emily see Toby in the Hastings'driveway. They all go outside. Emily goes inside his truck, and finds the keys inside and a note to Spencer. Spencer says, "He's gone." The actual meaning is unclear, but may imply that Toby has left Rosewood because of his belief that Spencer was cheating with Wren. He had previously said [in "The Goodbye Look"] that Spencer was his only reason for staying in Rosewood; now that he's lost her, he doesn't have a reason to stay.

Toby comes back in "Eye of the Beholder" with a new haircut and a brand new attitude. Spencer is with Hanna, Emily and Aria when she sees Jenna get out of the car. Spencer also sees Toby walk Jenna somewhere. Spencer stands up and she smiles because she is happy to see him, but he meets her with a glare because he still thinks she cheated on him.

Spencer sees him in school and they have a very awkward conversation about Jenna. When Spencer says that he is back to guiding her around he defends Jenna and tells her she better get used to things being this way. When Spencer brings up their relationship he says that it is too late. Jenna comes out and her and Toby leave.

That day, Spencer, Emily, Hanna and Aria see Toby talking to the police and fire department. The girls, especially Spencer who realizes she did a good job at screwing him up, think that seeing how Toby is back to hating all of them again, that he is telling that about The Jenna Thing.

At the hospital, Toby sees Wren and doesn't look to happy. Wren and Toby talk about his broken arm and how he was out of town and saw another doctor. After Wren leaves, Toby still looks angry and Jenna makes a comment about how he is Spencer's personal physician.

Hanna wants to talk to Toby because she knows that Spencer has been upset for a while about losing him and talks to Mona about it. So Mona texts Toby and says she wants to buy his truck for her cousin just as Hanna walks in. Hanna tells Toby that he can't let Jenna back into his life again. Toby tells her to shut up and assures her that she doesn't know what he is doing or why.

After the fire, Toby is with Jenna when she wakes up and he tells her that Hanna had pulled her out of the fire. Toby then goes and finds Spencer and tell her that Jenna wants to talk to all of them. He then asks her if she is okay which proves that he still cares about her.

In "If These Dolls Could Talk", Toby checks on Jenna when she is taking off her bandages. He wants her to wait for the doctors but she takes them off anyway. When Jenna begins to cry because she supposedly can't see, Toby says he is sorry.

Toby then takes Jenna to school where she wants to talk to Spencer, Hanna, Emily and Aria. He drops Jenna off while glaring at Spencer.

The next night, Toby goes in Jenna's room wanting to know why Garrett is stalking their house. Jenna gives Toby page 5 of Ali's autopsy report and says that Garrett gave it to her. Off-screen, Toby gives the page to the police and Garrett is later arrested for Ali's murder at the end of the episode.

In "UnmAsked", Spencer sees Toby doing yard work in Jason's house. She tries talking to him about Jenna but he is still giving her the cold shoulder. When she asks if he'll ever be able to forgive her he says he has work. As Spencer leaves she begins to cry and says he has a righ to be mad at her, but also that he doesn't have to be that guy who shuts everyone out. After Spencer gets back in her car, Toby gets a call from Dr.Sullivan.

After Spencer and her friends find out who A is and they leave the place where Mona is, Dr. Sullivan says that their friend helped her come back to Rosewood. Dr. Sullivan tells them that their friend helped her push throughher fears, like she often does with her own patients. After Spencer inquires what friend she's talking about, she sees Toby waiting near his truck. Realizing he is the "friend," they walk up to each other and Toby says that "Pretending not to love you was the hardest thing I've ever had to do." She goes to slap him, because she truly believed he hated her, but he grabs her and pulls her in for a kiss. They starting kissing with the Liars and Dr. Sullivan onlooking.

Season 3
In "It Happened That Night", over the summer, Toby moved out of his house and got a loft above a coffee shop. The water is down so he takes showers at Spencer's house. After his shower, he goes into Spencer's room shirtless as she is making her bed. He is drying himself off with the towel while Spencer checks him out. He walks over to her and asks if her parents are still out and she says yes. He also notices that she is wearing his shirt from "A Person of Interest" and Spencer tells him that he'll never get it back, but he doesn't want it back. They begin to make out and Spencer says that she knows it was her idea to wait but she has no idea why, and continues to make out with him. Toby catches on that he is half-naked and respects Spencer's descion to wait, so he says that she'll remember after he puts some clothes on. He brings up that he was glad the girls went to her lakehouse because of Ali's body disappering. Spencer doesnt want to talk about it and Toby understands that. He goes over and promises to call her later while giving her a kiss.

Toby meets Emily at a new coffee shop. Toby hugs Emily and tells her that she looks good. Emily than tells him that he looks happy and he says he is because he is back with Spencer. She says she is sorry if she took him away from Spencer, but Toby tells her that she was studying. Emilys asks him how he likes the new loft above the coffee shop. He tells her that he started the re-model a few weeks ago. Toby tells her that it feels really good to be on his own, and this makes Emily ask him how Jenna is.

Spencer even claims that he is her safe place to land in the season finale, "For Whom the Bell Tolls," and that she wants him to stay safe. As Season 2 progresses, the two seem to be growing closer. In "Over My Dead Body," Spencer feels forced to end the relationship due to A's message to "keep Toby safe." She believes A is capable of murder based on the lack of hesitation when Ian was pushed and the kidnapping of Dr. Sullivan. She reluctantly breaks up with him in the same episode and ignores him when he calls out "I love you!" at the police station.

In "Through Many Dangers, Toils, and Snares", Toby is having none of Spencer avoiding him. He shows up at Spencer's house with a chair that he made for her.

Later in the episode, Toby storms into Spencer's house just as she is going to meet the other girls at the greenhouse. They get into a huge argument, with Toby even saying that "Jenna always believed you [Spencer] were trying to become Ali, but I [Toby] never believed it until the fight you had with Emily." Spencer tries to escape, but Toby doesn't let her. She finally says that she can give him some answers the following day. In "A Hot Piece of A", Spencer talks to Toby, but this meeting goes better, as they even kiss inside of his truck, until Garrett shows up at the Cavanaughs' house. Whether or not Spencer and Toby are back together is unknown, but may not be a couple due to A's threat and Spencer wanting to keep Toby safe. Although, they both love each other, but Spencer doesn't want him to get hurt. In The Blond Leading the Blind, Spencer is really worried about Toby's safety after he falls of a work site. A sends her texts about how he almost got him and next time he wont be so lucky. This REALLY worries her so she knows she has to end it. She asks Emily to tell Toby that Spencer cheated on him with someone (which Emily later reveals to him as Wren), even though she never did. After Emily tells Toby, she goes to check on Spencer, who is in her room crying and he thinks that she betrayed him even though she never did. Toby comes back in Eye of the Beholder and is cold toward Spencer because he still thinks she cheated on him. But he still cares about Spencer because he asked her if she was okay after her cut her hand. Spencer and Toby brought it in unmAsked because he told her that he was only pretending not to love her and then pulls her in and they kiss passionately with smiles on their faces.
