- Spencer is determined that it is finally time to tell Aria about what she has found out about Ezra, but Emily and Hanna are worried about what it could do to her.
- We open with Spencer waking up in a classroom, her face resting on Alison's journal. Ezra walks in and asks if she's okay. He wants them to "address the issue" and she runs out when the bell rings.
Emily and Hanna see Spencer in the bathroom wearing shorts and flip-flops. She says they need to tell Aria about Ezra sooner rather than later. For some reason Hanna and Emily want to wait.
Ezra stops Aria in the hallway. He asks if she's spoken with Spencer and says things are "piling up" with her. He thinks Spencer is on drugs and shows her Spencer's file.
Toby shows up to meet Spencer outside of school. She confirms she's disappointed he took the money.
Emily and Hanna talks about avoiding Aria. She then sits down and asks about Spencer. She tells them Spencer is "strung out" and shows them evidence that two years ago her parents had to ask the school for help.
Toby asks Spencer to come over for some takeout. She passes, saying she's too tired.
The girls come over to Spencer's place and mention the drug stuff and her history. They show her the file and Aria says it came from Ezra, who is "worried about you." Spencer responds by blurting out that Ezra is A. She starts crying and sounding borderline crazy. She picks up her purse to leave and a stolen prescription pad of Wren's falls out. Spencer says she's never seen it before.
Mona and Mike sit together at a restaurant. He clearly has strong feelings for her and brings up love. Ezra walks in and Mona excuses herself to speak with him. She says she can't help him anymore but he tells her it's too late to back out.
Emily tells Hanna she thinks there's still a chance Ezra's not the real A. Spencer walks in and gives them the last of her pills. She says she wants a chance to prove to them that Ezra is A. She pulls out the journal and they go over the changes. She wants to convince A they are meeting A to give her money.
Spencer need to go to dinner with her mother and calls Toby to say she might drop by later.
Aria tells Ezra about Spencer becoming aggressive when confronted about the drugs. She doesn't tell him about Spencer charging him with being A. He thinks they should tell Spencer's parents what is going on. Aria eventually agrees, but is confused when Ezra has seemingly too much information about Spencer at Radley. It gets awkward.
Emily intentionally drops a plate of dishes at work within earshot of Ezra. At the same moment she gets a call and proceeds to reference Alison needing money and a dangerous rendezvous. Ezra notices.
A sweaty Spencer is trying to track down pills.
Aria goes the cabin and finds Ezra has installed a security system. She guesses his password after a few tries.
A doctor Spencer called pretending to be her mother returns the call to Veronica.
Emily and Hanna arrive at the fake Alison meeting location an hour before the zoo closes.
Inside Ezra's cabin Aria finds the trap door to his basement headquarters. But the basement is empty. She looks inside his grilling book and finds the manuscript about Alisonhidden inside.
The girls think they see Spencer arrive at the zoo and make their drop.
While Aria reads Ezra pulls up in front. He gets a text that there has been a security alert. Aria grabs the papers and rushes out. But she leaves her keys behind and Ezra spots them, as well as the empty grilling book. Aria runs through the woods. Ezra calls her phone, which helps him get close to her. She hides behind a tree and Ezra moves away without spotting her.
Spencer shows up and the girls realize the person they'd seen earlier wasn't her.
Ezra catches Aria and the two get on a ski lift together.
The girls briefly end up locked into the zoo room, and are startled by a guard. Hanna looks down and sees a wig.
Aria yells at Ezra that "nothing you say will change anything." He swears he never hurt Alison, all he was doing was writing a true crime about her. This means Aria started as research. He swears he never lied about how he felt about her. Aria tells him she's going to read the book, but he accidentally knocks it out of her hands onto the ground below.
Mike and Mona arrive home from a date. A stunned-looking Aria walks in and goes to her room without saying anything.
Spencer comes home to find Toby waiting for her. Veronica called him because she was worried. Veronica comes downstairs and Toby leaves, placing a jewelry box on the table. Veronica confronts her daughter. She says she "can't go through this with you again." She walks away and Spencer sees that Toby bought her a necklace.
We see somebody pick up the pages of Ezra's book.
