So I guess the rest of the season is gonna be a slow burn? Not that this was uneventful. But OMG this is happening on every show I watch! Writers are so lazy, but when they finally give me a ship I like, they screw it up.

I actually think Ali made some progress with Hanna. I took it as Hanna not really believing Ali is A, but just not wanting to take a chance.

And so Cyrus lured Ali out to kill her alibi. Maybe he killed Mona? That wouldn't account for betrayal, unless they were working together to frame Ali. At this point, I'm done theorizing about her "death" because it's fruitless.

I feel bad for Paily and Emison fans alike. I personally don't ship Paily, but Em did seem really sad. If for Paige it's "out of sight, out of mind," she doesn't really love Em.

As for the Spoby issues, I see where both are coming from. It seemed to me that Spencer wanted to honor Toby's wishes until Caleb got to her. She has every reason to not trust the RPD. But this is why Toby joined the force. To be the one guy on their side. Spencer should've had faith in him, though. And I now understand why Spencer didn't want him to join in the first place. Toby seems to be using his position to make decisions easier because he just can't handle the uncertainty and lack of moral compass anymore. I hope and pray the writers fix Spoby!

As for the knife itself. Toby's knife? Really writers? More pieces floating around, not fitting, like a 10,000 piece jigsaw puzzle! I'm gonna start losing my hair too, Aria!

Aria, I gotta say, good work facing Jackie. I may not like your character, but at least you stood up for yourself this time.

Hanna, the RV hillbillies, the bear full of chum. Well, yuck, obviously. And Holbrook told his dad about Ali, well so much for my theory that Ali was kissing someone else at the Ice Ball. I don't think his dad had anything to do with the bear thing because he seemed really nice. I think it was the kid. More effing puzzle pieces. A is for aaaaaaagh!

Why were 4 new characters introduced? The Johnny dude, Talia, Holbrook's dad, the teacher Aria met at the grand opening. I'm exhausted thinking about this epi. But I'll be up all night dissecting it.
