Last we saw the girls, Spencer had nearly died from a rogue steam shower (or more likely, the member of the A team controlling it); and Hanna had just learned her mom ran down and possibly killed Detective Wilden I Know What You Did Last Summer style. In other words, business is as usual in Rosewood, PA.
Caution: Spoilers ahead!

Not long after Spencer’s not-so-relaxing steam, Emily has joined Aria and Spencer at the Hastings' house, with Spencer ready to reveal to the girls who has been helping Mona. Unbeknownst to them, Hanna is off trying to cover up the possible murder of a police officer, so it’s probably better that they just start without her. Explaining to the Liars that she had been warned not to tell them, Spencer makes the big reveal, telling them that “Toby is A,” and Emily makes a face like she is trying to figure out what the square root of pi is.
Meanwhile, my favorite criminal duo, Hanna and Ashley, return to their house and try to figure out what to do about Wilden’s abandoned cop car and missing body. Hanna convinces her mom not to call the police or lawyers until they have a better idea of what the situation is like, and mother of the year agrees, adding “not a word about this to your friends.” Sure, that’s likely to happen.
Back at Spencer’s, Emily and Aria are trying to do what Spencer has been doing for weeks: figure out what Toby’s motivation could be for helping Mona. Emily, ever the optimist, continues to believe that there’s another explanation, but Spencer’s not having it. She laughs at Emily and the two have it out, before Spencer finally uses logic, which hasn’t been Spencer’s forte as of late. With Mona at the academic decathlon competition, she explains that Toby is the only one who could have locked her into the steam room, adding a caveat to Emily. “The quicker you wrap your mind about this, the better,” she says.
The next day at the Brew, Emily is clearly upset about Toby and is still not convinced he could be part of the A team. She calls Toby and leaves a message asking him to talk, and then takes the key to his loft out of a glass jar that she keeps at her place of work. Someone needs to get this girl a keychain.
Aria is walking into Ezra’s apartment with extra vim and nonchalance, and that usually means something surprising is going on inside his apartment. Sure enough, she finds her “hi babe” greeting falls on a seven-year-old. Ezra is at home with his son, Malcolm, who like the actor who played Jason earlier in the series, has been Changeling-ed. While I try and figure out if the age difference is greater between Aria and Malcolm or Aria and Fitz, Fitz explains that Maggie and Malcolm are moving to Rosewood and will be hanging out at his apartment until they can find a place to live. Though hesitant, Aria (AKA the world’s youngest step mom) stays to play trains with the boys.
