She adds that the police will find out.The scene then cuts to Toby tackling Andrew in the woods, where the latter begs "Please don't, listen to me." Toby isn't interested in listening to anything Andrew has to say and punches him in the stomach. Another cop, Toby's partner Lorenzo, shows up at the scene. Toby asks him to walk away and give him and Andrew a few minutes alone, but the cop tells Toby to do his job and Andrew is arrested.

Ali says "Figure what out? That I am somehow related to someone named Charles DiLaurentis who really is Andrew Campbell? What do you think happened? Goblins snuck into the Campbell house and switched babies on them?" Spencer cruelly retorts "We both know that there are more conventional ways somebody can end up with more than two parents: that's how you and I got to share a brother", causing Ali to turn away from her and stay silent.

She says "he just played games with us" and, when Ashley asks "what kind of games?", Hanna says "Truth or dare, who do you love more: me or her?, who deserves water today: you or somebody else?

Ella and Aria visit the police station. A woman questions Aria, asking her if she actually saw Andrew’s face anytime she was in the dollhouse. Aria says that she did see him, but he wore a mask all the time. The lady informs Ella and Aria that although a police has a lot of evidence against Andrew, it's all circumstancial since no one actually saw his face and hence there is no eye witness. Aria then says "I did see his face", but it is clear that she is lying and nobody believes her.


6x02 223

Spencer and Toby have a picnic. Toby now seems doubtful that Andrew is A/Charles, since no one would hold on to such overwhelming evidence for the police to find instead of destroying it.

He replies that he doesn't know why, but he does know that she doesn't want anyone knowing.

Emily and Pam arrive back home and Pam is livid, asking how Emily could go back there when she specifically told Emily not to. Emily says "You said that I couldn't use Dad's gun, so I rented one". Pam tells Emily that you never bring anger to a shooting range, and Emily unconvincingly tells her mom that she's not. Pam yells "I saw you, Emily!", causing Emily to become sad and ask how long they were really down there. Pam said it was longer than three weeks, and Emily asked if her mom saw Sara's eyes because she did. Emily says that Sara was down there for years, and it showed, then asks what would have happened if it had been her down there for that long. Pam tries to console Emily, saying that the one who did this to them is behind bars, but Emily replies that this doesn't mean there are no more bad people in the world.

6x02 307

At The Brew, Alison runs into Lorenzo and apologizes to him for being ruse to him at church. She admits that she is embarrassed about people finding out that she goes to church.

Ella simply tells her that she is smart and wise, indirectly saying that she should think twice before throwing around accusations.

Later that night, Emily looks out the window in her room. She puts on her father's jacket and walks outside. She hears something in the distance and sees a figure, revealed to be Sara. Sara thinks that her mother liked the attention and sympathy she got when Sara was missing and that her coming home changed everything, so she ran away. She even says that she should have stayed in the hole, but Emily disagrees. Pam tells Sara that she can stay, but they have to call her mother, causing Sara to cryptically say "You can try".

Veronica suggests the two watch a movie on the couch until they fall asleep, causing Spencer to say "okay" and Veronica kisses her cheek. A four way phone call soon occurs with the Liars, although we don't hear what they say, and we see Andrew is being interrogated by the woman who earlier questioned Aria.
