Episode Report Card Jacob Clifton: A+ | 2 USERS: A+ YOU GRADE IT Lana Turner We Love You Get Up
By Jacob Clifton | Season 2 | Episode 21 | Aired on 02.20.2012
Inside the building -- this part takes a while, because it is very suspenseful -- is a scary old squatter hobo, which causes them to scream some more and run away even as he's demanding their fingernails or whatever. They scatter, but Aria's able to grab an envelope from the house's mail slot before she falls off the porch in her ridiculous boots. (How ridiculous? The usual amount, although I'd be remiss at this point if I didn't point out the leopard-print tights completing what she must think of as a super-stealthy outfit.)
THE TAO OF SPENCER
Wren's gorgeous apartment, roaring fire, and Spencer being super drunk and super sensual all over the place, snagging more booze and talking shit about Melissa, and doing the most hilarious line of the episode:
Wren: "My family has issues, too..."
Spencer, with amazing accent: "Did somebody butta their bread wif a steak knoif?"
She does this kind of seductive/wobbly dance around Wren, they clink and drink, and she makes it very clear that they are going to be doing it in a minute, once they get real sexy about their mental issues.
Spencer: "I have an obsessive need to win at everything, even yoga."
Wren: "I have OCD, for my part."
Spencer: "Is that the reason your library is slightly out of order?"
Wren: Panic.
Spencer: "Just kidding. Let's make out."
They do. It is awesome. I prefer to ignore the fact that this is probably Toby-related fallout in addition to the other million things Spencer's got going on lately.
MARIN, POST-MISSION
The building was, once, the FWL Law Firm. Aria fusses at Hanna about how clearly A does not work at a law firm, both because she is a disembodied and vengeful spirit and also because people only work at law firms who are over thirty. And once again, Hanna just does the obviously correct thing and Googles it: It closed down a few months ago, they don't recognize any of the people on staff, and apparently we've hit a dead end so it's back to Ashley vs. Mona.
OH SPENCER
Spencer: "I remember the first time I saw you, I just thought, Damn. Just damn."
Things get way hot, but then Wren -- for the first time in Rosewood history -- decides that taking advantage of a drunk high schooler is not a good idea. A new precedent. I knew he was a keeper.
Spencer: "Oh, I'm pissed all right. Schnockered. Smashed. I thought you were really into me?"
Wren: "I am, which is why this isn't happening."
