Episode Report Card Jacob Clifton: A+ | 1 USERS: A+ YOU GRADE IT Taylor Doose Will Have His Revenge
By Jacob Clifton | Season 1 | Episode 21 | Aired on 03.14.2011
Emily cracks that shit open, and what do you know. Thanks, flashbacks. Next week they'll have a flashback like, "Hey, remember when we killed Alison as a group?"
OMG I totally forgot about that until you said.
Whatever, the fallout from the whole thing with Aria -- and by the way, I forgot but at some point she deletes the fake "website page" Hanna made for her because she is the Almighty Shusher and needs to have some kind of moral compass -- the resolution to Ezra having proposed ill-advised marriage to some girl on a Florence trip, or maybe he killed her and we'll find out next season that this happened, was that they both put on giant brown-paper grocery bags with faces markered on them and took a picture so they can have a picture together even if it's just their totally incriminating selves, clothes, and his apartment in the picture. So dumb, so very Aria, so very very whatever. /p>
Spencer gets a text from an anonymous number and, since that's never happened to her before on this show or even in this episode, assumes that it's legit. She heads into the legitimately fucking freaky Funhouse, and immediately gets locked inside one of those darkroom door-things from high school where the Lazy Susan goes all the way around you before you can go to the other side, and that's when A (presumably) jams a crowbar, literal, in the door.
At this point Spencer shits herself, for reasons unknown, and like starts doing '80s Dumb Girl shit like dropping her phone and completely losing her capabilities to do anything but scream for what -- even more bizarrely -- turns out to be like five minutes of the show. I will say, and I do give the show this much credit, it's entirely possible that she has some kind of claustrophobia -- heck, maybe even related to That Night -- which we'll see come into play next week. Every Superwoman has her Kryptonite, mine is Sagittariuses, maybe Spencer's is tight spaces. Meanwhile, the other Liars are all getting messages from Em about how they need to head to this one storage facility because luckily she has located the one clue that randomly appeared this episode five seconds after it came into existence.
The second Aria leaves, Cop Garrett shows up to ask Ezra some questions. I'm pretty sure he saw her, and I hope that he did, but what he sees inside the apartment is even more awesome: The paper-bag hostage masks, a rope tassel from 1992 curtains, and whatever. The little girl leaving his apartment with her hands looking held hardcore. "I'd like to talk to you about one of your students," he says, and Ezra swallows an entire Adam's apple, and honestly, it seems like such a cliffhanger that probably Garrett's going to be like, "So listen, on a scale of one to ten, how fucking creepy is Jenna Cavanaugh? Am I right and do you have a beer."
Where's Spencer: Being murdered by clowns, literally.
Who cares: Nobody.
