Also, the video tape didn't totally implicate Ashely; Wilden looked pretty bad in it, too.
I hate to think Toby's dead--and don't believe he is. For one, it's unlikely he'd leave a smoking fire to go off on his motorcycle, and the reason to have a helmet on is when you're getting on or getting off the cycle. Still, I see why Spencer though it was he; it's unlikely she had fake tattoos on her mind then.
And Aria babysitting Malcolm: dumb. Not dumb that she offered to do it, since she was right there when the problem came up. But the kid is 7, so he shouldn't need to be watched every minute. So he was jumping on the bed when she turned to get juice boxes (and she didn't mention that to Ezra), but I don't think it's a given that a kid jumping off what looks like a double bed would fall off and need stitches in his chin (he could merely have had an abrasion). (I don't have kids, so I don't know for sure. Actually, it reminded me a bit of Kramer vs. Kramer.) And I be

Having been a social worker who had to, at times, assess the mental stability of ER patients, I don't think that Spencer would have ended up at Radley quite that fast. She was in shockâand for all they knew it could have been drugs (she certainly wasn't coherent), so they would likely wait until they had more information. Also, they didn't seem to find Spencer's car, which suggests that 1)the police in Rosewood are pretty oblivious or 2)Mona did something with it.
Hey,why wasn't Wren her ER doc and her Radley doc; he always seems to be lead doctor whatever medical issues arise!
Also, when the PLLs can't find Spencer, why don't they call the hospital to see if there are any Jane Does? While we don't know about Melissa's role in all this, losing her sister might upset their parents.
The whole car thing was weird. And pushing it in the lake was even weirder. Why? And along those lines, why had none of the police noticed that Wilden was missing, along with his car? Also, the vid

I don't think the body was Toby's, and I'm not even sure it's Wilden's, but my money is on that body being in the trunk of the car Hanna and Aria dumped in the lake. Now that Spence is in Radley, and Toby has access to there, he'll show up and Spencer will think she's seeing a ghost, the doctors will think she's going even crazier, etc. And as for Ezria, either make Ezra A-team already or stick a fork in the relationship and call it done! It's fricking BORING!!!

You should totally start watching The Lying Game. It's a great show!!

I thought Mona was not allowed to use a cellphone or have access to internet without supervision.. So how come she was using a cellphone in that scene where Spencer overheard her making some plans while stuffing that bucketload of money into her purse????? And would they really have killed such an important character in such an anti-climatic way?? I mean even Garrett's death had more intrigue

Has anyone thought of the possibility that in fact that dead's body isn't toby's or wilden's but Cece's?? No grown man would have a tattoo on the back near to the ass for god's sake! I think it's cece and spencer just lost it because she thought it was Toby.
I've read eight of the series books and I don't like how they twist the show everytime, it's beginning to be a little tiring, my guess is we will all have to wait for it to end in a couple of seasons, cos it sure will lose a lot audience with this nonsense episodes we have to put up with.

I'm sorry Tati, but you're giving these girls way too much credit. Their teenagers but they aren't 5 yr olds! They know the difference between right and wrong and by now they should no better than to commit a felony!! They should know that they won't get away with it. Don't excuse stupid behavoir.

This show went way beyond ridiculous a long time ago. Tonights events were laughable. So Spencer gets picked up by police and they just throw her in Radley...don't even take fingerprints to find out who she is or notify family members?!! What universe do these writers live in?!
And I'm sorry but Hanna and Aria deserve whatever is coming to them for dumping that car. Unbelievable!!
I just can't get over how stupid the writers make these girls.
One last thing...A is killing people and attacking the girls...and yet none of them even carry mace!!
I thought that Emily went a bit overboard with her disbelief. She just basically dismissed everything her best friend said and didn't believe her. I understand not being able to wrap her head around it, but come on!
What this show needs is new writers.

Frustrating ep to say the least but Im thinking NONE of you have ever babysat because someone elses kid getting hurt in your care is a big deal, and I dont know why everyone is so bent on ezra's kid changing the relationship or Aria's age...like it or not this happens alot. Like someone else said tho Im not missing Wilden but I do think its time the moms where let in especially spencers hers being an attorney. I dont wish Spencer dead I think she has a plan and last nites crazy act was part of it. I just hope someone soon offs Mona so the girls can win for once. As far as the stupid decisions they are kids but going places alone after all they been through that is beyond stupid.

Spencer touching the helmet...if that really is a dead body, and not someone posing for her benefit, then her fingerprints--which are already on file with the cops--are now all over that helmet.

Hanna said she couldn't turn off the video in the police car--it was probably not playing on that laptop, but being transmitted from another location (Mona's house?), which would mean that yea, someone does have a copy of it.
As to them all making bad decisions---they're kids, despite all the expensive clothes, and growing up includes making bad decisions--so you can learn from them. However, these girls don't learn (or we wouldn't have a show), and bad decision-making as a problem-solving method had to come from somewhere (I'm looking at their parents).
Aria is an outsider. She never should have been with Ezra, in the first place, no matter how much the show tried to convince us otherwise. Even if she was an adult, when there's a baby in the picture, and it's not YOURS and his, well, all bets are off. Having a baby does change everything...

I didn't think 4 a second the body was tobys the fact that we never saw his face makes it obvious its not him my moneys on wilden n to be honest I'm really not that bothered by his death
I don't know who's more stupid hanna for dumping the car or her mum for not calling the police and listening to her 17 year old daughter who landed herself in a whole load of trouble time and time again
The thing that annoyed me most about this episode was the over reaction wen Malcolm hurt himself kids get hurt its kinda their thing don't get me wrong I enjoyed the episode but like the reviewer said some of the points were ridiculously over dramatic
I hope we get some perspective on why toby joined the A team and when soon it feels like we've been waiting for ages

Also Hannah dumping the car. Stupid. She needs to think better. As for Spencer,I wish she would die. Its one thing to break down and be totally crushed by the fact that your boy friend is an evil bully but seriously. She is letting Mona win. Why does she want that? Snap out of it already!!

It seems all that they do is make stupid decisions. Aria and her poor baby sitting. Emily with not checking things through. For me I think it could def be Wilden. The Red Coat would never have gotten rid off Toby so quickly. Its all part of their plan.

That episode was awful. Even Emily, who I thought to be the rational one, acted in a ridiculous manner. I'm ok with suspension of disbelief on this show, but they took it too far. Every twist was predictable. The kid hurting himself( it looked small for god's sake). Hopefully next week will be better

Ok dumping the car in the lake was pretty stupid since when the police find it it will look like someone's covering something up since there's no body. I think the body with the helmet is Wilden not Toby. Can't wait till tr next episode.

Toby is not dead. I am convinced it was Wilden's body, spencer should have taken off the helmet. Stupid girl! Definitely Wilden, if the showin I the hand didn't prove that then we are all naive.

i thought it was more of a "meh" episode. i feel like they are just piling more and more story lines. It's really getting annoying now. I hate how we have to wait until a mid-season/season finale to find something interesting. i seriously doubt that Toby or officer Wilden is dead. I really think that girl on a red coat is Cece or Melissa (with a wig?).
Also, how creepy was that scene where Toby's "work friend" knew Emily's name.
