Pretty Little Liars (2010–2017): Season 1, Episode 11 - Moments Later - full transcript

Moments after Hanna is hit by a car, the girls' world is turned upside down. "A" is no longer content playing a game of cat and mouse; With Hanna in the hospital and armed with the information of who "A" is, the girls are backtracking to figure out how they got to this point.

Previously on Pretty Little Liars.

I want to finish what I started
to tell you at homecoming.

Is that Ian?

Does Melissa know he's back?

I don't know why she
ever broke up with him.

She didn't. He broke up with her.

Hanna, we have to
make some adjustments.

This is a one-paycheck family and we can no
longer live a two-paycheck life.

This is Noel Kahn.

I mean, he was your biggest crush all through
middle school, and now he's asking you out.

- Dad, this is my friend Maya.
- Really happy to meet you.



"Alison loves Ian"?

I was wrong.

Hanna!

Hanna!

There's been an accident!
Please hurry!

"She knew too much. 'A'."

Somebody! Help!

Mrs. Marin.

Oh, hello Barry.

- Is something wrong?
- I'm afraid so.

It just came over the radio.

I'm sorry, but your daughter's
been involved in an accident.

Is that Hanna?

We have to get to the hospital. Are you
guys okay to drive?



- Yeah, I guess so.
- Okay.

Pretty Little Liars 1x11 - Moments Later

Hanna's mom is with the doctor.

I'm okay.

They don't know who was
driving the car.

We were at Mona's party,
and Hanna got a text...

so we were going to the parking lot
to meet her, and that's when she got hit.

She was unconscious,
we couldn't talk to her.

That's why we want to wait. Maybe they'll
let us see her or something.

Uhm, let me call you back
when I know something. Bye, Alex.

Is she okay, Mrs. Marin?

She is going to be all right.
She, uh...

She has a broken leg and a
broken ankle, bruised ribs,

and they might have
to remove her spleen, and...

What happened?

Hanna was coming across the parking lot
and this... this car just came out of nowhere.

Well, the police found the car. They said
it was stolen from a campground lot.

- Did they catch the driver?
- No, not yet.

Well, the cops should be
looking for Toby Cavanaugh.

It wasn't Toby Cavanaugh. The
police picked him up last night.

What?

One of the officers told me
they found him hiding in town,

and they were bringing him in to the
station when they got the call about Hanna.

You girls should go home.

I will call you when
Hanna can have visitors.

- Just let Hanna know that we were here.
- I will... when she wakes up.

- Toby isn't 'A'.
- Well, Hanna knows who is.

That's why 'A' tried to kill her.

Do you think 'A' is just
trying to scare us?

Well, it worked.

This was never about
scaring us. That was just a bonus.

I mean, this started with murder. We were
crazy to think that it wouldn't end up like this.

- So should we tell the cops?
- Tell them what?

- Everything.
- We don't know everything.

So what do we do?

Well, we talk to Hanna
before we do anything.

Is Hanna safe here?

Yeah.

I mean, nothing will happen to
her while her mom is with her.

Mom said you called.

Are you all right?

- Yeah. Yeah, I'm okay.
- What happened?

A car hit Hanna.

A car?
Who was driving?

We don't know.

They didn't stop?

No. They just... they just
knocked her down and drove away.

God.

- Is she okay?
- She's just shaken up.

No, I mean Hanna.

Yeah. Yeah, her mom said
she was gonna be all right.

Good.

Head's up, Spence. I'm
canceling Monday's practice.

I'll be out in a minute, Ian.

Okay.

He stayed the night?

It's not like we're strangers.

We went out for two years,
and we had a lot to talk about.

Go upstairs. Get some sleep, okay?

Okay.

When they find the maniac
who did this to you, I will kill him.

After I kill him, I will sue him.

- Have you seen Aria, or Spencer, or Emily?
- Yeah, there were all here. I sent them home.

Sean was here too.

And a boy named Lucas.

Who is he exactly?

He works on the yearbook with me.

I need to call Spencer.

- They have to come back.
- Well, that can wait.

No. No mom, it can't.

I will call them. You relax.

I didn't see it till I
came down this morning.

Maybe somebody put it
there after you parked.

Aria, we both know when this
happened. This happened last night.

I don't know that. And neither do you.

"I see you"?

Not "wash me". Not "go sharks".
"I see you", that's very specific.

Maybe it's specific,
but it doesn't mean anything.

Aria, it means somebody
saw us last night.

It doesn't mean anything.

- I really don't want anything.
- You need to eat some breakfast.

I don't want you driving back to
the hospital if you're stressed out.

Give Ben a call,
see if he'll give you a lift.

I don't think that's a good idea.

Ben and I are sort of really over.

You know, everyone in this town feels
a lot safer with Toby Cavanaugh locked up.

What happened to innocent
until proven guilty?

Guilty or not, he's better with the police
than wandering around on his own.

There's always more to a
story than people think.

Not at the table.

It might be about Hanna.

It's all right.

Does it hurt?

Yeah, kind of.

Do you remember what happened?

Uh, yeah, I remember.

Uhm, mom, you've been
here the whole time too.

You wanna take a break?

Are you sure?

Yeah.

I'll be back in a couple of hours.

Noel Kahn is 'A'.

What? Are you serious?

Yeah, I saw him in the woods,
and he left an 'A' message.

You saw him leave a message?

He wrote something on the
back of a car window.

What car? What did he write?

"I see you".

Why do you know?

I was in the car.

Whose car was it?

Ezra Fitz.

Mr. Fitz?

Aria.

Hanna?

It was Mr. Fitz.

You and Mr. Fitz.

You met him there?

The call you got at the
party... That was from him?

I couldn't tell.

I couldn't tell anyone. I promised Ezra.

Ezra?
Whoa, hold it.

This is something
that's been going on?

- You and a teacher?
- I didn't just get into his car last night.

- Who do you think I am?
- How long have you been seeing him?

- Since right before school started.
- Oh my God, since labor day?!

Okay, so you don't have
a boyfriend in Iceland?

No, I did.

Yeah, but it's not like that.

Okay, 'nd you were seeing a teacher
when I fixed you up with Noel?

Oh, my God. I fixed you up with Noel.

And why did you get
in his car last night?

Well, he, uhm... called me and...

Oh, don't... look at me like that.

My head hurts just as
much as my leg now.

What exactly did you see?

Well, I saw Aria go into a parked car.

And then I saw someone
in a black hoodie...

write something on
the back of the car window.

And when he turned around... it was Noel.

- No, it can't be Noel.
- Aria, I saw what I saw.

- And 'A' tried to kill her for it.
- Okay, but...

I mean, none of us saw
who was driving the car.

If that's someone with
painkillers, just let them in.

Noel.

I just heard about
Hanna. Thought I'd try to visit.

Yeah, she just fell asleep,
we're getting ready to leave.

What happened?

Don't you know?

I heard it was a hit-and-run.

Who told you that?

Sean.
Is she gonna be okay?

Yeah, we hope so.

- This is insane.
- Yeah, you're right about that.

Well, I'll take this in for you.

- We need to talk.
- I know.

- You'll call me?
- Sure, yeah.

Noel.

Where were you last night?

Hanging with Sean. Why?

Uhm, no, I was just wondering.

He lied to me... about being
there. He... he said he was with Sean.

So... this isn't gonna clean itself.

- This house looks fine to me.
- No, the water heater's on its last leg.

I'll take care of it.

I'm sorry.

About what?

You come home, and all I do is rattle
off a list of things that are broken.

It's all right.

- It makes me feel needed.
- Oh, you're needed.

How long?

Not sure.

They want me to supervise
some training exercises,

but they haven't set a schedule yet.

- Where do you have to go?
- Texas.

It's only one time zone away.

It's just so much better when
you're here. For me and Emily, and...

It's just better for her with
the whole team, you know?

I know.

You're doing great, though.

Honey, so much has happened to her.

What do you mean, this business
about the Cavanaugh kid?

Well, yeah, that, and Alison, and...

She's just really confused right now.

Confused how?

Oh, honey, daughters don't talk to their
mothers the way they talk to their dads, you know.

You need her to tell you something,
you ask her. She'll tell you the truth.

I gotta finish.

Hanna!

- Oh, my God, Mona.
- I'm waving a white la perla.

That's like the international peace symbol.

Can I come in?

Yeah. Come in.

Oh, that cast! That's...

That's like... for a broken leg.

That won't keep you from
wearing heels, will it?

Just for a little bit.

If I hadn't uninvited you to
my party, then you wouldn't have felt

so desperate that you had to sneak
around the edges and get hit by that car.

I almost feel guilty.

Mona, you don't have
anything to feel guilty for.

Oh, good.

Can we go back to being friends?

The past is forgotten.

Friends forever.

What?

You just look sort of... vague.

Oh, uhm, I don't
have any makeup on.

I can fix that.

Well, I'm glad we're friends again.

I promise never to listen to
another rumor, unless I start it myself.

Do you remember that time you
threw up on the trampoline?

You did that back-flip,
and you barfed as you went over.

Trust me, I remember.

Well, the thing I remember,
was your dismount.

You knew everybody
was staring at you.

You got to the edge,
climbed down, and looked at us.

You wiped your mouth,
and then you took a bow.

I was in awe.

Of me hurling on the trampoline?

No, of that bow.

I mean, it was like this incredible life lesson.

That's when I knew I
wanted to be your friend.

- Wow, I never knew that.
- 'Cause I never told you.

Concealer... the true miracle drug.

Are you sure about what
you saw on that tree?

We both saw it, Aria.

Well, I know, but...

Do you think that maybe Ali just put
it up there to see what it might look like?

No. Ali may have done some psycho things,
but she would never do anything tacky.

Anyway, Ian was with Melissa
last night, so he couldn't be 'A'.

Which brings us back to Noel.

He had means. He had opportunity.

Those pictures of Emily and Maya
were stolen at Noel's party, right?

Yeah, I know.

And Hanna saw him write that
message on the back of Mr. Fitz's car.

Uh, no, just slow down.

You flipped over to Noel awful fast.

Just 12 hours ago, you were
so sure that it was Toby.

What happened to that theory?

'A' or not, you still need
to know what Noel saw.

And what he plans to do about it.

I'm sorry, visiting hours
were over two hours ago.

You can come in the morning.

Hey.

You all right?

Yeah. They adjusted my meds,
I'm just getting used to them.

Who sent the orchids?

Sean brought them this morning.

Very nice.

Mom, I don't have to be in a private room.

I can move. We can save a couple bucks.

You don't have to worry about it.

Well, I'm alone here all day
with a mummified leg.

Aside from wondering how I'm gonna
go to the bathroom, I do nothing but worry.

The bank and I have
reached an accommodation.

Are they gonna give you a loan?

Sort of a professional courtesy.

Something to help us get back on our feet.

It's very short term.

- So, we're gonna be okay?
- We're gonna be okay.

You concentrate on getting well, okay?

You didn't call.

Sorry.

It got late.

What's the word on Hanna?

She's better.

That's great.

- They catch the guy that did it?
- Not yet.

The police are talking to
everyone who was there, to see if...

You know, if anyone saw anything.

Did you see anything?

Who told you I was at the campground?

I saw you in the crowd when they
were putting Hanna in the ambulance.

I wasn't sure then,
but I'm sure now. It was you.

It was supposed to be a joke.

A joke?

Yeah, like a movie.

Bunch of girls in the woods, I went
out there to give you guys a scare...

I saw you going off, so I followed you.

- Followed you to his car.
- You wrote on the window.

- I should've thrown a rock.
- What did you see?

Enough to figure out why you
act so squirrely around him.

What did he promise you
to get you in that car?

- I'll go to the principal with you.
- The principal?

You can take this guy down
for what he made you do.

- Uh, Noel...
- They can put him in jail.

Noel, stop. It's not like that.

Then what is it like?

If you care about me at all, please
don't say anything to anyone.

Just let me handle it.
Promise me.

- I have to go.
- Noel, please. Promise me.

All right.

I promise.

Do you know when agent
Cooper will be back?

It's about Toby Cavanaugh.

I want to know if he's
allowed to have any visitors.

No, I'm not family. I'm a friend.

Just have her call me back, please.
Thank you.

He doesn't wanna see you.

And even if he did, I wouldn't let him.

He's been hurt, Emily. You should
be able to understand that.

- I didn't tell the police where he was.
- But look what you've done.

You've made him run away.

The police came to
our house because of you.

They found that sweater
because of you.

- Let me talk to him, please.
- No...

I'm not gonna let anyone
come between us again.

Somebody should have come
between you two a long time ago.

Maybe a social worker,
with a bucket of ice water.

I can't imagine why everyone
thinks you're the sweet one.

- Did you miss me?
- Ali.

They said you were dead.

Yeah, I heard that too.

But here I am.

What happened to you?

It's complicated, Hanna.

Really complicated. Worse than algebra.

What happened when you left the barn?

We all wanna know.

You already do.

The four of you combined.

You remember more about that
night than you think you do.

Where'd you go?

Did you meet a boy?

- Noel?
- Noel? Please.

Please, just tell me the truth.

It won't make any difference, darling.

How can you say that?

Because I know.

You think the truth is some big
shiny disco ball of purity?

Then go ahead and try it.

Be honest. See what it gets you.

Telling the truth to the wrong person at
the wrong time is how I ended up where I am.

Take it from me.

You're always better off
with a really good lie.

Gotta go.

Where?

I was so scared that you were gonna die.
That's why I came back.

I didn't care how dangerous
it was. I had to see you.

You know, I really should
do something about 'A'.

That bitch is genuinely
getting on my nerves.

I was gonna look for you.

I think we need to talk.

Yeah, uh, I'm sorry
about the car situation.

Common sense kicked in about third period.

You were right. Somebody probably just
doesn't like the way I park.

You are right about
there being other people.

- We have to be really careful.
- I've been careful.

Remember? Careful made you unhappy.

You don't make me unhappy.

You totally mess me up, and I feel miserable
sometimes, but you don't make me unhappy.

And... I wasn't unhappy the other night.

But?

But...

Would you go back if you could?

If you knew that it
would be this complicated,

would you have even talked to
me that first day in the bar?

I've thought about it.

If I had left before you walked in,
we'd have no problems.

You'd just be a pretty girl that sits
one row over from the windows,

and I'd be the new teacher.

All neat and tidy.

Is that what you want? To go back?

No.

Me neither, so... we don't go back.

We go forward... together.

Did you tell Mr. Fitz about Noel?

His name's Ezra.

Maybe you get to call
him Ezra. He's still Mr. Fitz to us.

- Did you tell him?
- No, I couldn't.

- Aria...
- Well, how could I?

What about you and Noel?

There isn't a "me and Noel". There
never really was.

Does he know that?

- I think he does.
- You think he does.

Yeah, I just, I don't know how hard to push
him. But I know that it's a one-way street,

so once I say something to
anybody, I can't take it back.

I know what you mean.

Pudding cup alooza.

Vanilla, tapioca, butterscotch.

Uh... tapioca. I like the little bumps.

Hey, that's starting to look like the
declaration of independence.

You know, Lucas, you don't have
to keep skipping school. I'm okay.

I told the office I was
doing community service.

- And they believed you?
- I have a very believable face.

I plan to use it in politics.

Well, you're a good friend.

Thanks.

You know, being friends with somebody...

That can be more important sometimes,
than getting to know them in a different way.

Yeah, uh, I have to ask you something.

They have me on all kinds
of drugs and things,

and sometimes things can
be a little, I don't know, uhm...

The medical term for what
you're looking for is "loopy".

Right, loopy.

I mean, I have like twilight zone moments,
funny dreams... just really unexpected stuff.

And it can be confusing.

"Did I just see that? Was that
person really here?

Did I imagine that whole
thing just happened?"

"Did Lucas actually kiss me
when he thought I was asleep?"

Yeah, things like that.

I thought you might have been awake.

And then I thought, "if she was awake and
she didn't scream, then that was a good sign".

- Well, I was too surprised to do anything.
- Really? You were that surprised?

Me wanting to kiss you was so
outside the realm of probability?

No. No, it's not that. It's just...

You know, I thought that we were friends.

Look, I like you Lucas.

I feel like you're breaking up with me,
but we were never really together.

Lucas, I am being honest with you.

And besides, I have a boyfriend.

And I think you deserve
a better boyfriend.

Well, that's between me and Sean.

Look, I like you way
too much to lie to you.

And that's something I
used to do all the time.

Couldn't you just keep lying,
just for old time's sake?

I'm sorry.

No, wait Lucas, you don't have to leave.

No, but if I stay you're gonna think
that I'm okay about this, and I'm not.

I'm sorry.

I'm just being honest.

I don't know Maya. I mean, with Hanna
in the hospital everything's on hold.

Yeah.

I miss you too.

Maybe tomorrow?

I gotta go.

Right, bye.

- Was that Hanna?
- No, Maya.

- Does mom need help with dinner?
- No, not yet.

Okay.

Do you remember Dennis Small?

Yeah.

He told me that he heard you've
been calling the station.

You're trying to visit this Toby Cavanaugh.

Do you wanna tell me why you're
trying to talk to this boy?

I want him to know that it wasn't me
who told the police where to find him.

Has he threatened you in any way?

No.

What is it?

Your mother thinks you're
keeping some kind of secret.

You've been jumpy since I got home.

At first, I thought it was 'cause I
hadn't been around, but that's not it.

Something's eating you.

It's like you said, I'm just a little jumpy.

Look, you tell me who's giving you
a hard time, and I will take care of it.

- It's not like that.
- If you need help, you ask for it.

- There's nothing to be ashamed about.
- Dad...

I'm gonna talk to Toby Cavanaugh
myself, and put an end to it.

I'm not afraid of Toby.

You're afraid of something, I can
see it in your eyes. Now, what is it?

- I'm afraid of you and mom.
- Why? Why are you afraid of us?

Because I'm not who you think I am.

You're Emily fields, my little girl.

I'd know you anywhere, I got a
picture of you in my wallet.

I'm eight years older than in that picture.

- That's a different girl.
- It's the same girl.

We just need a new picture.

It's not that simple.

Emy...

I'm gay.

I'm gay.

- Bar? You met him in a bar?
- It's not a bar, it's a pub.

And he hit on you?

Yeah, we were talking about writing.

- Yeah, read any good books lately?
- Hey, seriously.

Boy, I'll tell you, part of me thinks
this is really self-destructive behavior,

but most of me just thinks it's really hot.

Spence, don't tease, okay?

It's not funny. It's the opposite of funny.

I'm sorry.

It's just...

I don't know how I'm
supposed to react to all of this.

Yeah, neither do I.

Show me the stupid tree, okay?

Yeah, it's right over here.

- You're not gonna tell me that...
- No, this was it. It was right here.

Wait, are you sure that
you have the right spot?

I'm sure.
It's gone.

This isn't something she
came up with on her own.

It's that girl from California... Maya.

Before we start talking about
other people, let's just talk about Emily.

Why didn't she tell us?

She was afraid.

- Of me?
- Both of us.

She's not afraid of us. You wanna
know what she's afraid of?

This is what she's afraid of.

- Where'd you get these?
- Somebody mailed it to me.

Someone who wanted me to know.

- You had this and you didn't tell me?
- When was I supposed to tell you?

When you walked through the door
after being gone for eight months?

Is that how I'm supposed
to welcome you home?

How are we gonna fix this?

Fix it?

This is not like buying
her braces. It's... It's who she is.

That's not who she is. This is
what someone else is making her into.

- Maybe she's just experimenting.
- This is wrong.

This is completely wrong, and you know it.

Do you think I like this? I don't.

But when I went in there, I didn't
know what she was gonna tell me.

I thought... sweet God, what is this? Drugs?
This Toby kid get her pregnant?

Let's just keep this in perspective.

What is your perspective
on right and wrong?

She is struggling with this, I can see it.

- And I can't.
- No, that's not what I'm saying.

Well, then what are you saying?

Are you willing to just turn away from
everything we ever wanted for her?

Let her ruin her life
so she can experiment?

What happened to you? What
happened to your values?

Did you just leave them out
in the desert somewhere?

I told you I don't like this.

But she is alive and healthy.

And after everything I've seen, alive and
healthy counts for a lot, believe me.

We should call Em and Hanna.

We'll talk to them at the hospital.

A tree, Spence, an entire tree.

Well, I would've been fine
with just cranberry juice.

Oh! You found my stash.

Should be cold enough, right?
Yeah.

Well, you have great timing.

Grab some glasses. Melissa's
out in the barn.

I'd like to know what I'm
celebrating before I drink to it.

Well, I mean, you don't have to be
celebrating to drink champagne.

That's very old fashioned thinking.

You canceled practice today.

Yes, I did.

- To be with Melissa?
- Yes.

Why?

Uh, you know, why don't you come
out and talk to your sister?

No, I think I'd like
to hear this from you.

We're married.

You're what?

- We eloped.
- Yeah, it's incredible.

It's like last year never happened.

Congratulations.

Do mom and dad know?

Not yet.

Yeah, we expect they'll
be a little, uhm, surprised, but...

Surprised?

This is what I want. They'll understand.

You'll help me with them. I know
I can count on you.

All right, uh, bring
some glasses. We'll have a toast.

Spence, what just happened?

You told them?

Yeah.

How was that?

Rough.

Hey, it's gonna be okay.

I don't know what it's gonna be,
but, it's gonna be different.

I guess so.

So the whole tree?

Yeah. Lock, stock, and bird's nest.

Why?

I mean, why show something
like that and then just take it away?

Like 'A' had a split personality.

That's great. Homicidal and nuts.

We've been thinking maybe we're
dealing with more than one person.

'A' and Ali's killer are two separate people?

- Okay, you are freaking out the invalid.
- No, just think about it.

No, you think about it.

I mean, aren't we in enough trouble?

I know I am, just look at me.

Hann. Hann, who wrote this?

I don't know, people have been
in and out all day, and so have I.

- Oh, no.
- What?

What? What's on there?

"Sorry about losing my temper. My bad.
Love, 'A'."

- Who put that on my leg?
- Who wrote that?

Did somebody come in here
while you were asleep?

- I don't know, just get it off! Just wipe it off!
- Okay Han, easy, easy...

Get it off me!
