The Assaulter was an alias used to identify the previously unknown person responsible for sexually assaulting Tabby Haworthe and Imogen Adams. Imogen's sexual assault resulted in pregnancy. Through the investigative and deduction work of The Little Liars, he was revealed as Chip Langsberry.

Background[]

Tabby Haworthe[]

SS-206 SC (72)

Tabby's assault happened one night over the summer, when Tabby was working late at The Orpheum with Chip. This group of kids from school came in, led by Greg and Karen. He invites her to a bonfire party in the woods, behind the school. She wants to go so she asks an astonished Chip to cover for her. He's initially upset that she wants to party with a bunch of meat heads and their girlfriends. He ultimately caves and agrees to cover her shift. Tabby goes to the party and has a lot of fun at first. But things took a turn. She didn't think she had much to drink, but got dizzy, light-headed, and knew she had to get home. The next thing she remembers is being deeper in the woods, away from everyone else, and eventually, on the ground. He was on top of her, though she passes out before knowing anything else. Chip had followed her from The Orpheum and presumably drugged her drink, following her home until she was alone in the woods. When she was unconscious, he took advantage of the circumstances he created.[1]

Imogen Adams[]

SS-206 SC (73)

Imogen's story is like that too. It happened that same night as Karen's party in March. After she took Tyler's phone and handed Karen over to Kelly, she grabbed a bottle of vodka and went to the beach to drink it alone. That's all she remembers until she wakes up in pain with her underwear gone. She's sitting alone on the beach, crying, blood on her dress with a bottle of liquor by her side. That was the night she got pregnant.

Series[]

Imogen and Tabby have an idea to catch their attacker by using the DNA from Imogen's unborn baby to match the assaulter. They plan to use Millwood High's blood drive to get the samples, but need to ensure that every boy at the school attends. Noa's mom can hopefully help them figure out the DNA part. They can get real proof with it and make sure the police can't ignore them. Noa offers to talk with Shawn about it, too. Kelly is working in the nurse's office so they can help them get involved.

Identity[]

Tabby tells Imogen about her suspicion that Chip is the one who attacked both of them. She didn't want to say anything in front of the other girls. Imogen, crying, struggles to understand as he's one of Tabby's best friends while she and Chip have kissed. Tabby admits that it adds up as he was nearby on the night of both their assaults. Ever since she started thinking about it, she can't shake the feeling that it was him. It's all circumstantial, though Imogen thinks there could be some real evidence. When she woke up that morning on the beach after it happened, she didn't have her underwear. If it was Chip, he could have kept them as a souvenir. Chip is working late at The Orpheum so they can get into his house.

After the festivities, Imogen, Tabby, Sidney, and Corey sit down in the kitchen to discuss Chip and their sexual assault case. Chip is already back at home as his parents made bail to bring him home for the holidays. The girls have been talking and want to press charges. They want him to pay for what he did. It won't be easy, but Corey knows some great lawyers who will work pro-bono. She'll do everything she can to help. Sidney will do anything and everything to put the nightmare behind them.[2]

At the Langsberry home, someone rings the doorbell and Chip answers. A leaps forward, raising a butcher knife above his head.[3]
