Talk:A Dark Ali/@comment-71.178.131.39-20140815082502

Okay real talk time about Alison.

Has Ali been a huge bitch this season by putting the liars at risk with all of her lying to the cops and secret deals? Yes of course.

But let's be real, what does it mean when this show goes out of its way to make someone super shady? Usually that means they aren't the bad guy. The exceptions being Shana and Wilden who were just generally shifty from the start. But think about it - Byron, Melissa, Jenna, Peter, Noel Kahn, Toby, Ezra, CeCe etc. They never end up being the real bad guys. Sure they've all done bad things; but not on A level.

The show is so obviously doing the same thing with Ali. Making her all suspicious just so they can clear her next spring. Why bring her back only to reveal her as the bad guy so soon? They totally could have waited until the final season for that. I'm not saying she isn't doing bad stuff to desperately try to defeat A. But it's so obvious that there will be some grand revelation about a bunch of inside stuff she knows about A and can't trust the girls with. And lets be real, the liars are sometimes so dumb I wouldn't trust them with info either. Because they'd all tell their significant others, Hanna will talk as soon as she is drunk etc.

Alison is being manipulative. But thats probably only because she knows so much that she can't tell the liars. Not trying to defend her as I think she kind of owes it to them to tell the truth. But just saying that she is likely not the bad guy the writers are trying to make us believe she is.

If they were going to make Ali truely bad, she's be all nice and sweet all season and then in the finale she'd turn around with an A hoodie or something.
