| “ | When I first got here I kept thinking: How did this happen? What did I do to deserve this? I honestly thought that I was helping you guys...telling you what to wear, how to act, who to like. Being here no one listens to me. I'm told everything. I never realized how bad that felt - to be on the other side of that. So, I'm sorry. | ” |
Hanison is the friendship pairing between Alison DiLaurentis and Hanna Marin.
Relationship[]
Alison gave Hanna the name "Hefty Hanna" mocking her weight, Despite being the sweetest of the bunch, Hanna was often cruelly mocked and teased by Alison. This is seen in "Know Your Frenemies" as well as in "Never Letting Go" and other episodes. In "Know Your Frenemies" we also find that Alison even convinces Hanna to throw up to lose weight.
She also convinces Hanna not to eat in "Pilot" saying she is being a friend. She often left Hanna feeling bad about herself. Hanna also has the most hallucinations about Alison such as in the hospital and with her therapist. This could be because she never had the guts to stand up to Alison and has bad feelings about this or it is possible that Hanna had these hallucinations because she is missing Alison a lot and she actually cared a lot for Alison.
After Alison's disappearance, Hanna (with the help of Mona Vanderwaal) loses weight, changes her hair and clothes and takes Alison's place as "Queen Bee" at Rosewood High for a while. In Season 5, Hanna realizes that Alison has had such an effect on her life, that she's never had her own identity because she modeled herself after Alison. Hanna becomes embittered and untrusting of Alison as a result.
However, Hanna quickly started to regret her decision and still cares for Alison deeply and Alison has been shown to start treating Hanna like a real friend.

Alison was afraid that he was going to expose their set-up and so went to meet him. She waited for hours but he never showed. Alison realized too late that it was all A’s plan to frame her. She couldn’t admit this to the police because then her kidnapping story would fall apart.

She asks Hanna if they can start over and Hanna says they can try – but only if Alison is honest with them about everything. Hanna demands to know who Varjak is.
Alison meets with her lawyer, Rebecca. Rebecca warns her that if the case goes to trial, her chances of getting acquitted are low since the prosecution has substantial evidence against her. If found guilty, she could go to prison for life without chance for parole. Rebecca tells her that there is another option: the D.A. is offering her a plea bargain. If Alison pleads guilty and names an accomplice, Alison gets sentenced 15 years and can get out in 10 years with good behavior. Rebecca also informs her that the police are already building a case against her accomplice who they think is Hanna. At the end of the episode, Hanna is arrested as Alison's accomplice in Mona's murder. Hanna is booked and led to her cell. As she passes Alison’s cell, she glares at her. Alison meets with her lawyer, who tells her that the judge is ready to move her to a minimum security prison and that she has to meet with the D.A. that afternoon to name her accomplice.
