In "What Becomes of the Broken-Hearted", CeCe is at the Brew when Emily spots her and starts asking questions about "Beach Hottie", she would leave stating that she doesn't have time to answer questions since she has to get pictures for her website. She would call Aria, who would ask if she could bring an assistant, since the original photographer was a "dork" - taking pictures on his phone. CeCe would leave Aria and Wesley alone to go get some dinner and then later call and say that she got towed. While this happening, Jason and Emily find a picture of CeCe with Alison and Wilden after CeCe claimed not to know him.

In"I'm Your Puppet" Spencer finds out CeCe had a visitor pass to Radley signed by Wren, and she was visiting Mona while she was there. According to Wren he got into a lot of trouble for allowing her a pass at a time when Mona wasn't supposed to be seeing anyone. But he let Cece see Mona because she was desperate to do so as CeCe also was traumatized by Alison. Alison apparently got CeCe thrown out of school. CeCe wanted to act as a mentor for Mona.
