Aria. Aria. Aria. What have you done? I mean, I could begrudgingly overlook the dirty dreams you were having about Jason DiLaurentis—it was your subconscious' fault, after all—but then you had to go and kiss him?! I bet you wouldn't have locked lips if you'd known he was stalking you with a telephoto lens. WHILE YOU SLEPT. Can I get a collective shudder?
But this being "Pretty Little Liars," Jason's weird photographic proclivities were just a fraction of the creepiness during last night's episode. Once again, the girls—done up in candystriper outfits—haunted the morgue, looking for the mysterious missing fifth page of Alison's autopsy report. With the same unfruitful results. But! For some inexplicable reason, a hospital attendant pranced Jenna through the basement (I thought the only thing down there was the morgue...) where the liars overheard the two discussing a surgery that could possible bring back Jenna's vision. We all know what that means: "Jenna can aim a gun once she sees." Double shudder.
Back at Casa Marin, Em's sort-of-girlfriend Samara stopped by to drop off some treats for her sweet and break the bad news that they wouldn't be able to hang out at friend Zooey's house that night because her mom was sick. No matter, said Mama Marin! Emily was more than welcome to have friends over to the house and be herself (if you get her drift...), albeit she had to follow the same no-bedroom rules as Hanna. Fast-forward to a lively poker party where Em excelled at cards and winning over Samara's friends. Until A dealt a dud hand: She/he told Em that she had to secure Zooey's digits or else the HGH-heavy lab results would become public info. After a little hand-wringing, Emily gave her number to Zooey, only to have Samara's other friend Quinn see the deed and squeal on her. Was I the only one thinking that she should have given Zooey a piece of paper with something totally benign on it, like a cupcake recipe or something? Poor form, Em. You need to think more deceptively! Samara was none to pleased either and ended things. Is this the last we'll see of the cute couple? I hope not.
Spencer continued her one-woman investigation of Jason, coming to the conclusion that he was hiding something in his shed. She returned under the cover of darkness with Emily as her accomplice, finding a photographic dark room in the space, which explained the darkened windows. Not so easy to explain were the surveillance equipment and the extreme close-up shots of Aria sleeping. Triple shudder. The girls fled the shed just as Jason returned, but dropped a flashlight in the process, cluing Jason to the fact that someone had been snooping around. The girls tried calling Aria and Hanna to warn them, but neither answered the phone. Because Aria was too busy KISSING JASON. I can't decide if Jason has genuine feelings for Aria or is just using her. Either way, this doesn't bode well for Ezria or the other liars.
For her part, Hanna ignored Spencer's call because she was in the middle of quite an emotionally wrought moment with Caleb. After discovering the supposed cop who was tailing him was really a private investigator hired by his birth mom, Caleb called his MIA mama, and she invited him to California. That night. Caleb and Hanna shared a tearful farewell, exchanging "I love yous" and promising to call each other. Here's hoping Caleb returns quickly to Rosewood because Hanna isn't the only one who will miss him.
With no one answering their phones, Spencer decided the best course of action was to break into Jason's shed again and steal one of the Aria images as proof of Jason's creepiness. Except, when she and Emily returned, all that was in the shed was their forgotten flashlight. Quadruple shudder.
What did you think of last night's "Pretty Little Liars"? What are Jason's motives? Is Ezria doomed? Are you sad to see Caleb disappear again? And how does Jenna fit into this complex puzzle? Sound off in the comments and on Twitter!
