- Aria Montgomery: Mona basically told you she was ready to kill Charlotte.
- Emily Fields: Yeah, but she didn't, because Charlotte never showed up.
- Spencer Hastings: Not guilty because the victim didn't show? That's setting the bar pretty low, Em.
- Aria Montgomery: Innocent, guilty, whatever. She admits to being the brunette on the phone. Let's, let's tell Tanner this so I can get off the suspect list.
- Emily Fields: Well, do you think she's lying?
- Spencer Hastings: Well, pick a topic.
- Emily Fields: About Charlotte not meeting her that night.
- Spencer Hastings: That's probably true. It's too easy to check.
- Aria Montgomery: While you two are discussing this, let's remember that I was the one in the lineup. All right? Really very unflattering lighting there.
- Spencer Hastings: So what? Do we wait?
- Emily Fields: For what? Whoever this is, wants us to hand over Charlotte's killer before election night. And they're getting impatient.
- Aria Montgomery: Yeah? Well, does anybody want to put some ointment on that impatience?
- [holds up her bandaged arm]
- Spencer Hastings: Look, a free-range Mona is more likely to lead us someplace, especially if she thinks we believe her.
- Emily Fields: So, we believe her?
- Spencer Hastings: We believe her enough.
- Emily Fields: [about Hanna and Caleb] And you're just gonna let the two of them run this?
- Spencer Hastings: It's their plan. What do you want me to do? Wedge myself in between them on the sofa?
- Lucas Gottesman: [in his loft apartment] So, do I get an invitation to the wedding?
- Hanna Marin: Of course you do.
- Lucas Gottesman: I was half expecting to meet Jordan when I got here.
- Hanna Marin: Yeah, well, he's a little phobic of small towns. He thinks they exist only to escape from.
- Lucas Gottesman: [snickers] Hmm-mm. I used to think that.
- Hanna Marin: What changed your mind?
- Lucas Gottesman: Big cities.
- [Hanna nods]
- Alison Rollins: [honeymoon couple emerging from bedroom] It's very late. We almost missed the breakfast part of 'bed-and-breakfast.' People will wonder what we were doing up here.
- Dr. Elliott Rollins: [smiling] People will know exactly what we were doing here.
- [she chuckles, they kiss]
- Dr. Elliott Rollins: What do you wanna do today?
- Alison Rollins: I was thinking that we could find a lake, or a river, and sit on the bank and read. Or not read.
- [smiles]
- Dr. Elliott Rollins: What is it?
- Alison Rollins: I was really, really happy... the moment before I tripped. And I wonder if that's why I fell. Maybe every good thing has to be paid for by a bad thing.
- Dr. Elliott Rollins: That's not how the universe works.
- Alison Rollins: Sometimes I feel like I'm being punished for surviving... still being alive.
- Dr. Elliott Rollins: Or... maybe... you just snagged your shoe on the carpet. The planets did not align to give you a bump on the head. It was an accident. That's all.
- [he kisses her]
- Spencer Hastings: [holds up cell-phone picture of hospitalized Ali] She says that it was an accident.
- Emily Fields: Do we believe that?
- Hanna Marin: As much as I believe Aria being seared was an accident.
- Aria Montgomery: What do you think, Spencer?
- Spencer Hastings: At two out of five in the ER, that's 40%. It"s 60% if you count what happened to Emily's eggs.
- Hanna Marin: Well, the odds aren't going to get any better the closer we get to election night.
- Emily Fields: Three days.
- Hanna Marin: Hey, so, Ali's hospital is an hour away. I think I'm gonna go check up on her.
- Aria Montgomery: She says she'll be back tomorrow.
- Emily Fields: Maybe she should think about going in the opposite direction.
- Spencer Hastings: Yeah, check on her, but don't freak her out. And it might be best if she stays away until after the election.
- Aria Montgomery: What do we do about Mona?
- Spencer Hastings: Keep a close eye on her.
- Hanna Marin: You guys, Mona did not kill Charlotte. She couldn't.
- Aria Montgomery: She's got as much motive as anybody, probably more.
- Emily Fields: She admits to getting Charlotte out of her house. I mean, she's telling the truth. Not all of it.
- Spencer Hastings: Mona's changed so many times, I doubt she even knows herself when she looks in the mirror.
- Hanna Marin: Okay, who around here hasn't tried to reinvent themselves a couple of times?
- [rises]
- Hanna Marin: I'll call you after I go see Ali.
- [leaves]
- Emily Fields: [re Hanna's plan to pretend she was the killer] Whole thing sounds crazy.
- Hanna Marin: It's not crazy. We're building a rat trap.
- Emily Fields: And you're the cheese!
- Spencer Hastings: Hanna has a plan and Caleb has the know-how, and if we don't back them up, they're just gonna do it by themselves.
- [last lines]
- Aria Montgomery: Are you sure you wanna do this?
- Hanna Marin: I wouldn't have thought of it if I wasn't ready to do it.
- Caleb Rivers: Look, guys, this isn't a democracy, okay? We're not taking votes. This is something that Hanna and I decided to do.
- [his hand goes to his ex's shoulder, and this upsets Spencer]
- Caleb Rivers: And the only thing you need to do is decide whether or not you're gonna help us.
- [whole group considers this uneasily]
- Spencer Hastings: Nobody here is gonna let you do this by yourself.
- Hanna Marin: All right. So let's get started.
- [starts typing text message, voicing it aloud:]
- Hanna Marin: Leave my friends alone. I killed Charlotte.
