Season Notes for 4B

 * Brenda, an academic overachiever, wants to help a scholastic pressured Spencer by giving her, her secret - but for a hefty price. Her secret? Let's say that Emily won't be the only one popping pills. Source
 * Sasha said "Other than trying to find out where Ali's been and what she's been up to and who she's afraid of, 4B is also about finding out who the hell is in that box." Source
 * Sasha also said "Almost all of it is dedicated to finding Alison and finding out who Board Shorts is. There are so many revelations in the second half of this season; it will blow your mind. The answers are right there in front of you and when all is revealed the fans will kick themselves for not thinking of it first." Source
 * Oliver said "CeCe will be seen again since she has an connection to all of this and what happened that night — Garrett and Wilden and Jenna — CeCe has a connection to it all, so you will be seeing her. She might be a master puppeteer in some ways. She’s very good at puppetry." Source She is known to be in A is for Answers. Source
 * On who Ali can't trust and on the season finale, Oliver said:   "I think that there’s more to be revealed. I think that night itself, which we explore in 4B…the finale opens up that night, cracks it like an egg, and you’ll see a lot of things, so I don’t know if the audience really does. You will know soon enough."  source

 * On the "twin theory":  "It's pretty much put to rest. There's still some wonderful mythology in the later books we want to incorporate, but as far as the core mythology, we kind of told people a long time away we were going to deviate from that." source
