Episode Report Card Jacob Clifton: A+ | 4 USERS: A+ YOU GRADE IT One Thing About Boys
By Jacob Clifton | Season 3 | Episode 12 | Aired on 08.28.2012
Aria: "Emily, first of all let me just reiterate that this is all about me..."
Emily: "Four."
Spencer: "You know we love you, right? In our greedy, grasping, suffocating way where we treat you like an infant?"
Emily: "Three."
Liars: "Garrett didn't kill Maya! Paige had an earring! Ipso facto!"
Emily: "You went through her purse the last time you dicked up a simple apology, and found an earring? Have you idiots not noticed that we find a piece of evidence in every single episode and it never means anything whatsoever and most of the time it was planted there by A just to mess with us? Or then Spencer burns it, so it still doesn't matter in the long run?"
Liars: "But an earring! She drowned you! She date-raped you! She bicycled!"
Emily: "Peace, assholes."
Liars: "...Well, we tried."
SCHOOL
Hanna: "Surprisingly enough, Emily didn't come to school today. I want to assume it's because of her girlfriend's highly publicized murder, but I also maybe feel like it's because we were being insensitive assholes."
Aria: "Hanna, Hanna, Hanna. Sweet, oblivious Hanna. This is clearly all about me."
Hanna: "Hell you figure, this time?"
Aria: "Easy. I went to Ezra's baby mama's school class under an assumed name. She bore his child, rather than terminating it as specified in the agreement she made with his mother. Therefore, this is about me."
Hanna: "I swear to God you're responding to something I was saying about Hanna, but I'll be damned if I can figure out..."
Aria, verbatim: "I just really feel like I'm about to rattle the cage of a sleeping giant."
Hanna: "Two things. First of all, why do you ever say shit like that. And secondly, I'm starting to think Alison was wrong. Secrets don't keep us close, they tear us apart."
LOCKER HALL
Spencer and Paige stare at each other for a million years until everybody in the entire school evacuates this wing of the school, because this could be it. The big one.
Spencer: "Fuckin' what? What are you lookin' at?"
Paige: "Um, Emily called me in tears because you guys ganged up on her this morning."
Spencer: "We didn't 'gang up,' it was an intervention..."
Paige: "-- Well, that's not really my problem what it was. See, she's my girlfriend, okay, and she was crying. Do you not get how this works? It's like my one valid reason to act out of control and I am not letting that slide."
