- Aria to Mona

Synopsis
Spencer hasn't been herself lately, but has she had enough to just disappear? Could "A" have done something to her? These are all questions that Aria, Emily and Hanna are asking themselves when Spencer goes missing. But when it turns out even her family doesn't know where Spencer has gone to, the girls frantically search for answers hoping their worst fears aren't true. But where Spencer does turn up at, maybe she doesn't want to be found.

Meanwhile, Emily gets the surprise of a lifetime when she meets Olympic Gold Medalist Missy Franklin

Title

 * The circle could be a reference to the “A” team and the circle of lies that began three years ago? Could this have to do with Toby’s reveal, or something else? Will the “A” team come under scrutiny?
 * Or could the circle be a reference to a particular character or relationship? If that’s true, then take your pick. Every character and relationship has quite a bit of drama coming up … but will the circle be unbroken?
 * The title could also be a reference to the girls' circle of friends (Spencer, Aria, Hanna and Emily) and whether that circle will be broken by Spencer's disappearence.
 * This also could be a reference to the popular hymn and the flashback scene of Spencer and Ali in church.
