^That is true. However, as Spencer pointed out to Emily once, when Nate attacked her, Emily had to make the decision of whether she would defend herself or not. Ultimately she did. So the girls are in the same situation now...an unknown assailant who has been terrorizing then for quite some time is posing a threat to them, trying to murder them. They need to make the same decision Emily previously made.
