So last night I caught up on two hours of “Pretty Little Liars.” Mona is back at Rosewood and causing major drama for the liars, while Toby still seems to be doing her bidding on the side. Jenna left town after Garret’s death on the “Ghost Train” as she feared she’d be next. Spencer meanwhile was worried for Jason, who was the last alive member of the NAT club. There is still no word on where Melissa is.

Mona returned to school and played everyone like a fiddle. She got everyone to somehow feel sorry for her and believe she had gotten better, while still plotting the whole time. She tried to get Hannah back on her side, but Hannah learned from Lucas that Mona was constantly breaking out of the hospital and was blackmailing him still. She even had Toby try and run him over, though they don’t know it was Toby.

Aria still hasn’t told Fitz about his kid, and -A is pressuring her too. She also learned more about her dad’s involvement with Allison. It seems Allison was blackmailing him over the whole Meredith affair. He couldn’t give her anymore money than he had without it being noticed. She didn’t like that and told him that he had till Labor Day Weekend when she’d be back in town to fork over the money. That’s the night that Allison was murdered. Byron apparently plastered his wife with wine that night, knowing she’d pass out, so he could sneak out to meet Allison. It’s definitely looking like he could have killed her, but I’m sure it’s a red herring.

Mona and Jason have been cozying up, which has worried Spencer. Near the end of the last episode we saw Mona tending to a wound on Jason’s side and trying to keep it hidden. It would appear that Jason is on the -A team, as Aria stabbed someone trying to push her off the ghost train with a screw driver. His wound definitely looked like it was caused from that. I feel bad for Spencer as both Toby and Jason are in cahoots with Mona, and she has no idea!

The last episode also had Aria and Meredith finding common ground over their concern about Byron. Meredith knew about the blackmail, and both she and Aria worry whether he killed Allison or not. Sometime tells me Aria shouldn’t trust Meredith. Meredith wanted to dispose of some incriminating pages from Allison’s diary that Aria got her hands on, but Aria insisted she had hidden them. If Meredith isn’t in on this with Byron, I think she’s on the -A team too. At the end of the episode after Byron left his office late at night and Mona then swooped in, calling someone saying that he just left . . . .
