Whirly Girlie
With Alison home and Jessica nowhere to be found, Kenneth DiLaurentis asks Ashley Marin to look into Jessica's emails to see if there is any indication of where she is. When Hanna looks she finds an unsent email from Jessica to an unknown recipient saying "I can't protect you anymore". The Liars theorise that Jessica decided to go deliver this message to the recipient in person and whoever it was killed her to protect themselves.

Later on, Pepe starts barking at something in the Hastings' back yard. The Liars and Jason go out to find Jessica's hand sticking out of the ground. The police are called and Jessica's body is dug up and taken away.

Thrown From The Ride
Alison texts The Liars and tells them that an initial autopsy could not determine Jessica's cause of death and that instead a toxicology report was going to be done.

Spencer goes to see Alison, who informs Spencer that the toxicology report came back showing traces of Losartan in Jessica's system. Jessica had low blood pressure and took medication for it, whereas Losartan is for the opposite problem. This means that Jessica's heart stopped working.

Run, Ali, Run
At school, Alison receives a message from 'A' saying "I buried your mom the same way I watched her bury you", with an attached video of Jessica being buried. This suggests that whoever hit Alison with the rock that night is the same person who killed Jessica and the current 'A'.
