- Spencer about Red Coat

Red Coat is the former leader and was formerly in charge of The A-Team. She joined Mona Vanderwaal for a partnership of A, and eventually overtook it from Mona. She is seen by the liars very briefly, and sneaks away before being caught. Its later learned Red Coat is working for Big A, who is presumbaly the current leader of the team. Big A's existence is unknown to the liars, and possibly to The A-Team members. Red Coat takes orders from him, and she orders the members, making everyone think Red Coat is the leader, when it is actually Big A.

She is discovered to be CeCe Drake, who wants revenge because she think the liars had something to do with the stunt Alison pulled at a frat party, resulting in her getting expelled from college. Aria kicks her mask off, revealing her identity. She then falls, to what seems her death, but escapes when the girls don't notice.

It is also Alison DiLaurentis in diguise to hide from the person who is trying to hurt her. Originally, it was believed that there was one Red Coat who was on The A-Team but it has been revealed that there are two Red Coat's. One is CeCe, aka "The Bad One," and the other is Ali, the presumably good one. Carla Grunwald revealed Alison is indeed alive, furthur suggesting she is Alison. She appears to be helping her old friends, and always saves the girls when there in trouble. It's not actually confirmed if Alison is the second Red Coat, but it will be confirmed in "Grave New World".

Red Coat  is shown to be a female in a red trench coat, black long sleeved shirt, black leggings, black gloves, and black high heels. She also sometimes is shown sporting red nail polish.

 Blood Is The New Black 

We see Red Coat once more wearing a red hoodie. She is seen buying black hoodies and gloves for her workers. The store owner says to Red Coat, "So, are you buying this for a team?"

The Lady Killer

It is revealed that Toby is the second "A," and is also part of the "A-Team." The dramatic irony is that the Liars don't seem to understand that both Mona, and the New A, are simply workers for Red Coat. In the same episode, we also see Mona, (most likely) talking to Red Coat on the phone since Mona learns from the other person that there is a "change of plans." Since Red Coat is usually the one planning out all of the "A" schemes, it seems as if the caller was Red Coat.

Misery Loves Company

When Hanna goes to the boutique, she sees in the window reflection a blond girl wearing a red coat (the same color as Vivian's jacket) across the street, watching her. When Hanna turns around, the girl has disappeared.

In the same episode, we see Mona and Toby talking in "A's" lair. Mona refers to someone by saying, "They need to understand she's in charge." Which means that Red Coat is a female.

Out of the Frying Pan, Into the Inferno

Red Coat is seen in A's Lair using a blowtorch to burn a doll representing Hanna. The girl was seen wearing a red jacket and red nail polish.

Dead to Me

Emily remembers more of what happened "That Night". She remembers seeing Red Coat while being attacked by a member of the "A-Team." She remembers that Red Coat had blonde hair. Emily says that she (Red Coat) is the one in charge.

Out of Sight, Out of Mind

I'm Your Puppet

Aria sees Red Coat while she, Hanna, and Emily are in the morgue posing as candy strippers. Aria follows her, almost catching her before she slips into an elevator and escapes.

A DAngerous GAme

It is revealed that Toby doesn't know Red Coat's identity. He tells Spencer that all he knows is that she's in charge. At The Thornhill Lodge, Mona is heard talking on the phone to Red Coat who is flying over them in a plane, while Spencer, Aria, Hanna, Emily and Toby are working on a plan to reveal her identity. After Toby and Spencer leave, the girls sneak in and corner Mona, but the cabin is suddenly on fire and Mona tells the girls it's Red Coat's doing. Locked inside, they urgently try to find a way out, and Mona reveals she does not know who Red Coat is. In the end, Red Coat drags the girls out and quickly escapes, but not before Hanna, Mona and Spencer catch glimpses of her, and it's Alison. Mona later tells The Liars that Red Coat wore an "Alison" Mask when she visited her in Radley and during "That Night." Emily and Aria are both unsure if the girls actually saw Alison, or if it was Red Coat wearing the mask. After learning there are two Red Coats, its presumed Alison saved the girls from the fire, and not CeCe since shes an A-Team member. However, its unknown if CeCe was in the plane, or whether it was Alison.

'A' is for A-l-i-v-e
 * -|Season 4=

Red Coat did not have a physical appearance in this episode, but her coat is seen (with no hood) in the rubble at the Lodge. At Darren Wilden's funeral, a woman (The Black Widow) was possibly spying on the Liars, and, later on, she was in "A's" Lair adding a Mona doll to "A's" dollhouse. She pulled back her veil and was shown wearing the Alison Mask, but it was burned on the side. Did she save the girls at the lodge fire? Could she be Red Coat?

Under The Gun

Emily is taken to the police station and questioned by Lt. Linda Tanner concerning a video that she received. The video featured someone wearing the red coat while wearing an "Emily" Mask, holding up a 'Guilty' sign. It is unknown if this was actually Red Coat or another "A-Team" member (as the person's hair is not blonde).

Crash and Burn, Girl!

It is revealed by Nigel Wright that CeCe Drake set up a fake private flight plan for Red Coat in "A DAngerous GAme". CeCe paid Nigel to cover her tracks. It is unknown if CeCe is Red Coat or if she's apart of the A-Team, or if this was a lie.
