Talk:How the 'A' Stole Christmas/@comment-180.253.148.9-20140825144544

So.. This is my theory : (timeline on the night Ali dissappeared)

In A is For Answer, Ali told the girls that she and Spencer argued that night (with the shovel and Spencer's drug) but after that, Spencer went back to the barn and she's not the one who hit Ali.

After that, Ali stood in front of her house and got hit with a rock by Bethany, that's why Mrs. D were so shocked. And that's explained why Mrs. D was the one who buried Ali. She's trying to protect Bethany.

And we know Mrs. Grunwald helped Ali.

Then what if, Ali, ordered someone to make sure it looked like Ali still in the grave. So that person dug up the place where Ali was buried and hit Bethany Young. But that person didn't what their hands dirty so he/she made Bethany just lying next to the hole, waiting for someone took the bait and buried her instead.

And Melissa, who saw Spencer dragging the shovel, she suspected Spencer did something bad to Ali and viola! She saw Bethany lying next to the grave dressed and looked like Ali. She panicked and her big sister instinct took over, she buried Bethany without knowing who she was or whether she's still alive.

Melissa thought she did that to protect Spencer. But in the end, she realize Spencer didn't even do anything with the shovel and her action that night was pointless. She's just another A's victim. That's why she made that video and went to England, she's afraid that somebody will tip the police about that night and he/she made her as a suspect.
