Pretty Little Liars (2010–2017): Season 1, Episode 12 - Salt Meets Wound - full transcript

Previously on Pretty Little Liars.

I saw him in the
woods. He left an 'A' message.

- What did you see?
- Enough.

Noel Kahn is 'A'.

Don't say anything to anyone. Promise me.

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

I'm gay.

- Why didn't she tell us?
- She was afraid.

This is what she's afraid of.

Lucas, I am being honest
with you. I have a boyfriend.

And I think you deserve
a better boyfriend.



Somebody decided to pay
a visit to Alison's memorial.

Mom, this is Alex Santiago.

- Good serve.
- From the club?

I'm the last Potter. When I go,
that's the end of the line.

- We're married.
- Spence, what just happened?

Who wrote that?

What? What's on there?
Get it off! Just wipe it off!

- Okay Han, easy, easy.
- Get it off me!

Why are you taking that off?

I'm not. I'm trying to keep it on.

Believe me, I don't want to see
the autograph that's under it.

We can get you another sticker.

Yeah, this time why don't you try
something mellower, like "save the planet"?

Hey, there were not a lot of choices, okay?



It was either "humpty dumpty" or
"Jesus is coming. Look busy."

Oh, God, it's still there.

Hanna. Hanna, don't, okay?
Don't look at that.

Just look around you.

'Cause you're safe,
you're home, and you're alive.

Yeah, well, I thought I was
safe in my hospital room too.

What's going on with Noel Kahn?

- Is he 'A'? Have you talked to him?
- No, I avoid him. I keep telling him I'm busy.

Busy freaking out every time I look at him.

Yeah, well, try being run over by him.

Who got you this panda? Sean?

- Lucas.
- Oh, sweet.

Anyone else starving or is it just me?

Your mom said she left a special
dinner for you in the fridge.

Uh... Pass. I want a pop-tart.

What? I've been on
hospital food for three weeks.

I want to eat something that doesn't
look like it's already been chewed.

Okay, well, why don't you eat while we
go get the rest of your stuff. Okay?

Hanna?

Hey, so... if you're gonna
stay down here tonight, we...

Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Down here's good.

- What happened?
- Nothin', just knocked a few boxes down.

- Well, do you mind if...
- No, no, no, no, you don't have to clean.

Uh, you can go. Seriously,
my mom's gonna be here soon, so...

Wait, so now you want us to leave?

You don't have to put on a brave
face for us, okay? We get it.

If being alone is freaking you out,
we can absolutely stay...

No, no, no. I'm just... I'm fuzzy, and
I think it's from this pain medication.

- Yeah, I need a nap.
- Okay, can we help you to the couch?

No, you've done
enough. Seriously, you guys, go.

Okay, call me?

- Yeah.
- Yeah. Me too, any time.

You know you have
to boil that first, right?

Yeah.

Pretty Little Liars 1x12 -
Salt Meets Wound

So, do you like? I could go back and
get the one with a built-in heating pad.

Okay, what happened to
the "no spending" zone?

Honey, you are gonna be on the couch
a lot. You should at least be comfortable.

Last month we could barely afford basic
cable and bubble bath, and now you're...

I told you, things are better now. The
bank loan came through.

In a lasagna box?

So, I see you've had time to
go exploring while I was out.

Mom, there are thousands
of dollars in there.

Hanna...

We were days away from a foreclosure.

- Where'd it come from?
- The bank.

It is a loan.

Unauthorized.

- Yeah, but what does that mean?
- It means just what I said, I borrowed it.

From a customer who will
never know it was borrowed,

because it's all gonna be
replaced by the end of the year.

- So you stole it?
- Listen to me.

This is our lifeline. I was able to
get our mortgage current,

and what's left in this box is our cushion.

- And I will pay it all back. All of it.
- How?

Mom?

I never intended for you to know
about it. That's why I hid it.

I figured in a box of carbs that's been
sitting up there untouched for 10 years

was a safer bet than my
old makeup bag. My mistake.

This is my problem, you just need
to worry about getting better, okay?

Okay.
I'm gonna take a shower.

I like these sausages. What
are they, chicken?

No, they're turkey.

So, does your friend have any allergies?

What?

Is there anything I should
know about what Maya eats?

No. She eats everything.

Dad, I know I asked for it, but if
mom can't handle this dinner tonight,

- I'll just tell Maya...
- We're looking forward to it.

Your mother was up all last
night preparing the menu.

You don't think she'll
try and poison her, do you?

Your mother? That's not her style.

She'd kill her with kindness.

- Get in.
- I can't.

My mom will be out any second.

And she's not gonna believe that you
came all this way just for coffee.

Well, I didn't. I came for the kiss.

Let's do this later.

- Yeah.
- Okay.

But ho... no, honey,
leave the boxes there for now.

Do not call her, it's their honeymoon.

- Okay. Bye.
- What's going on?

Ian had all his boxes delivered
this morning from his storage unit.

- It couldn't wait till they got back?
- No.

I'm guessing he and Melissa probably
want to get a jump start on settling in.

- Why are you so shocked?
- Because you're not.

You and dad are acting as if you're totally
okay with this whole elopement thing.

- You don't think this was rushed?
- Of course it's rushed. It's outrageous.

I'm not dancing a jig over it,
but what's done is done.

And besides, a long engagement doesn't
guarantee wedded bliss either.

Oh, honey, would you
hold this? I'm buzzing.

Oh, speak of the devil.

- Ian?
- Nn, Melissa.

Another picture.

- The honeymooners.
- Where are they?

Looks like that mall near dad's office.

Well, I guess when you're in
love you can be anywhere.

You don't think it's weird...

Melissa trading in her princess gown and
pink champagne for a food court slurpee?

Spencer, you were a big part
of your sister's rough year.

Maybe you could just be happy for her.

- Why is he out of jail?
- He's out on bail.

He's probably meeting with his attorney.

Honey, you'll be late, and staring
at him won't make him disappear.

Come on, let's go.

Maybe we should just
give her one book at a time.

Hanna doesn't really do well with stacks.

Unless they're catalogues.

- Hi, Maya.
- Hey there.

- Are you still coming for dinner tonight?
- Sure, if your folks still want me to.

- What should I wear?
- Anything. Doesn't matter.

- A dress.
- A dress? Seriously?

Is this some sort of formal thingy, or are
you just worried my jeans are too butch?

Don't say things like that, please. Okay?

They're not... they won't laugh.

Well, I'll see you guys later, so...
have fun tonight.

But, fyi, if you decide
to wear jeans, iron them.

Emily?

- Are you still into this dinner?
- Of course. I just...

My parents have been acting
strange since I told them about me.

- Us.
- Define "strange".

Whispering, closing doors, changing
the channel when Ellen comes on...

Got it. I will wear
the girliest dress I own.

I'll tell them I sewed it myself.

Maya, this isn't a joke. My mom
isn't your mom, okay?

Gatsby was more than just a pretty face.

He was ambitious, ruthless, charming.

And the themes of change and loss
are central to both novels.

Did everybody get their papers back?

Perfect. See you Wednesday.

Oh... chapters one and
four. No study guides, please.

Read the man, not the blogger.

You guys go ahead. I'll get Hanna's
assignment and meet up with you.

I know who wrote
that message on your car.

It was Noel Kahn.

But he admitted it was stupid. He
was just angry and jealous.

Yeah, I get why he did it.

- Who else knows?
- Nobody. Nobody else knows.

Look, and he's not gonna tell anyone.

How do you know that?

Because I think he may have known
about us for a while now,

but if he was trying to hurt us he would
have said something a long time ago.

Okay? He promised he'd
just forget what he saw.

Look, let's not talk about this here.

Can I come to your place later?

- I'm just not sure I want to be there.
- It'll be fine.

Just... make sure Maya
doesn't do all the talking.

You know, If she starts going
over a cliff, you grab the wheel.

Spencer, Emily, wait up.

I just found out that Hanna's mom's
got some bank thingy in Scranton

and won't be home till really late, so...
I want to do a surprise party.

You know, "Welcome home Hanna. We
love you with or without your spleen".

I've checked with Mr. Hanna,
and Sean is totally down with it.

They didn't take out her spleen.

Really?

- Then I'll just change the theme.
- Mona.

I'm really not sure Hanna's up to
hosting a bunch of people at a party.

Oh, please. She's been socializing
with I.V. bags and bedpans. She'll love it.

If you guys don't want to come
I'm sure she'll understand.

Mr. Fitz?

- Got a second?
- Uh, sure. What's up, Noel?

Wanted to talk to you about something.

These comments on my paper.

- Pretty harsh.
- Oh, I wasn't trying to be.

I worked really hard on this.

I'm sure you did, but you clearly
hadn't read all of the material.

I think I know enough to
get a better grade than this.

What are you asking me to do, Noel?

Change the grade?

'Cause that's not gonna happen.

Mr. Fitz, you don't want me to
bring the principal into this, do you?

Take another read. You
may have second thoughts.

I think it deserves this.

Hey there.

Turns out there's this surprise
party for Hanna, so I'm thinking, uhm...

- I'll just go there first and then come by.
- You're not coming over.

Why? What happened?

I had a visit from your friend Noel.

Turns out he's not too
good at keeping promises.

In fact, he's not at
all who you think he is.

Did he say something to you?

Ezra.

Hey.

Tell me what... what
happened, maybe I can fix it.

Mr. Fitz?

What can I do for you, Jenna?

Mr. Mazarra said you need
to sign my absence card.

Sure, let me get a pen.

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

Sorry to interrupt.

Hey!

- Hey!
- Hey, I'm sorry, practice ran late.

What's this?

Member of the club gave it
to me. It's a tennis clinic in Sweden.

Sweden? Why did he give it to you?

He wants me to apply. A lot of the people who
go to it end up playing in the Swedish open.

God, Alex, that's amazing!
You have to do it!

Maybe I could get an internship over
there, like in Stockholm or something.

- Slow down. I'm not going.
- Why?

If this guy recommended you,
he must think you're up to it.

I think you're up to it. You are fantastic.

I can't go, I told my uncle I'd
work for him. He needs the bodies.

Your uncle can find other bodies
to help him rip down buildings.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

I don't want to go.

So you'd rather spend the rest of your
summer tossing broken plaster in a dumpster?

- That's insane.
- Maybe to you.

I'm not interested in playing pro. I'd
rather be here, working. I'm saving for college.

Okay, I get that, and that's good, but...

how can you turn this down?

Like this.

So, you ready?

- So, where in Texas will you be stationed?
- Fort Hood. But I'm not leaving just yet.

Oh, uhm... no, thank
you. I don't eat seafood.

It's not a moral thing. I get hives.

Oh, I'm sorry, Emily said that
you could eat anything, so...

I forgot. Sorry.

It's okay. Uhm...

- I'm really sorry.
- It's all right. It's fine.

- Are both your folks from California, Maya?
- Yeah. They, uh...

They met in Berkley at a "No Nukes" rally.

After my brother and I came along they
got married, and we moved to San Jose.

So, you were already here
when your parents got married?

I was the flower girl.

Oh, uhm, I guess they wanted to make
sure it was real before they tied the knot.

Two children wasn't real enough?

Uhm... tell the story of
how your dad asked your mom.

So, my dad's this raging, crazy romantic.

He proposed to my mom with a sharpie.

Oh, he didn't have a ring, so he drew
one on her finger with a felt pen.

- That's a very clever placeholder.
- No, that's the only one she's ever had.

Once the ink wore off, she
retraced it with a tattoo.

Wow. See, now why didn't I think of that?

Excuse me while I check on the roast.

And honey be careful, our
anniversary is coming up.

I'm gonna invest
in some felt-tip markers.

- So, where are you going after this?
- What are you talking about?

Well, when my mom told me you were
gonna give up your Friday night

- to help me study math...
- I never said math.

I said I would get you up to speed.
So, can we discuss Claudia Rice?

- I don't know who that is.
- Yes, you do.

Skinny, skinny jeans... won't wear
anything unless it's tight enough

to make blood come out of her ears.

- Whoa, what was that?
- What was what?

I just saw a shadow at your door.

No, wait Mona, don't open the door.
Call the police!

- Oh, hush, baby Jane.
- Mona, don't!

- Surprise!
- Surprise!

Uh, Noel, what... what are you doing?

No, please don't open that.

Jackpot.

That's it, Noel. We're over!

What?

Happy now?

What happened?

- I just put Noel Kahn back on the market.
- How? You broke them up?

We broke them up.

Aren't you still crushing on him, Aria?

- What did "we" do, Alison?
- What's with the 'tude, guys?

I did it for Aria.

I only kill when we need food.

And when I'm bored.

Buona sera.

Hey, Lucas, long time no
talk. How are you?

Thirsty.

You can have your own cup.

- So... were you surprised?
- Yeah, I still am.

- Did you get my e-mails?
- Yeah, I got 'em.

Well, you know I'm behind in every class,
so, if you want to study together...

I'm kind of off studying at the moment.

Been there, done that.

This semester I plan to go
from honor roll to toilet roll.

- What is this?
- Yeah, I would slow down on that.

- Mona made that, so it may be a little...
- I'm fine, mom.

I'm not driving, and this isn't
my first time playing Margaritaville.

- Want some?
- Hanna-banana...

Where is that photo
of you and me at the lake?

You know, the one where
we won the chicken fight.

- Yeah, I don't remember Sean.
- Sure you do.

It's you and Sean.

- Me Tarzan, you Jane Austen.
- You got a problem?

No. Just amusing myself.

Did I embarrass you?

Sorry... about the shrimp thing.

- Had I eaten that, I would have blown up.
- Stop. They really liked you.

Dad was definitely hooked,
and mom liked the dress.

Wait till she sees
the crease in my jeans.

Do you want to change
before we go to Hanna's?

Would it be okay if I bailed on that?
I'm exhausted. I didn't sleep last night.

- I was way too nervous.
- About dinner? Because when I saw you

- at school you were totally all right.
- One of us had to hold it together.

You were one buckle
short of a straitjacket.

I didn't mean to interrupt.

I just wanted to make sure and give
Maya something to take to her folks.

- Oh, that's so sweet. Thank you.
- You're welcome.

- Enjoy.
- Thank you.

- Here you go.
- Thanks.

So, uhm, I was thinking...

My parents have this little
place up in Bucks County.

What if we, uh, could sneak
away up there next weekend?

Please just don't say no until
I at least show you a picture.

You had me at "I was thinking".

What just happened?

Nothing. I just...

- Just a little bit busy here.
- Well, let's go outside.

Okay, I'll meet you out there.

I'm just gonna go upstairs
and use the bathroom.

Okay.

There you are! Where you been?!

Sean got this amazing picture of
Hanna's face when we surprised her.

She might have
peed herself. It was classic.

You broke your promise.

You promised me you'd forget
what you saw in Mr. Fitz's car,

- but you're not letting it go.
- Back up. What are we talking about?

You know exactly what
I'm talking about, okay?

- And you can't just blackmail him.
- Blackmail?! Is that what he said?

- You never demanded a better grade?
- I didn't demand anything.

I asked him to take a second
look at my essay, I mean,

haven't you ever worked hard,

and thought you deserved something
better than what you got?

Wow. If that's the
story he put out there,

then you've really got
to wonder who this guy is.

Noel... is there something
else going on here?

Is there some old grudge you've
got against me and my friends?

Noel, come check this out. Pritzker's got
this video of the barracuda game.

It's your shining moment, dude.

Did Jenna tell you I tried to reach you?

When you were still in jail.

No.

Well, I did.

I wanted you to know
that I wasn't the one.

I never told the police where you were.

I gotta go.

Where?

There's a party at Hanna's.

Lucky you.

I can barely leave my porch.

But that's okay.

I don't get many invitations.

Just death threats.

Do you believe me?

That's what I asked you,
before the cops picked me up.

I never got an answer either.

Hey, hold still.

Look, would you be cool
if I left a little early? ... Now?

Where are you going? Hot faculty party?

- It was a joke.
- Was it?

- Aria...
- No, it bothers you.

Me and Ezra. I can...

I can tell by the way
you're looking at me.

I mean, come on, it's not like
things aren't different now.

- Parties like this must feel like you're babysitting.
- What?

I don't feel like that at all.

I never should have told you guys.

No, you should have told us a
long time ago, when it started.

I mean, this whole time I thought
I was helping you get over

this viking boy in Iceland who,
turns out, doesn't exist.

I mean, I thought we were close,
we tell each other everything.

I couldn't, okay? I swore to
Ezra that he could trust me.

We trusted you too.

Right.

And now I've blown it with everyone.

It took forever to get into that bathroom.

Mona was spending quality
time with her eyebrows.

Hey, what's wrong?

- I'm gonna take off.
- Why? Where are we going?

I don't know what you're
doing, but I'm going home.

Couldn't resist, could you?

What am I looking at?

An e-mailed confirmation of my
application to that tennis clinic.

- Okay.
- Which was sent in electronically.

- You think I did that?
- You're the only person I told.

- Yeah, but I didn't.
- Spencer, get real, okay?

You and I want different things.

And you say that you're okay with that,
but you're not, and you never will be.

I did not send that in, but I
apologize if I made you feel like...

Don't apologize for who
you are and what you want.

I'm not going to.

...and she's all, like. And so now, Hanna's
on top of the bunny hill, but I had to, like...

hypnotize her to get her
to grab on to the tow rope.

- Okay, I was freezing.
- You were freaked.

No, Sean, my eyelashes
were cracking off.

She says to me "Sean, can
you carry me down, please?"

And I'm like, "babe, I'm right
next to you. You'll be fine."

Oh, her trusty St. Bernard.

You can snowplow the whole
way down I tell her.

"And if you fall, I'll drag
you back to the bus

and get you drunk so
I can lick your face."

- What did you say?
- I mean...

so what if they're lousy guard dogs?

They're big and they're goofy, and
you can get past buckets of drool.

I think Hermie the Hermaphrodite
needs a jumbo coffee.

I mean, who does not want
a big, slobbering beast

who can catch a ball in the end zone?

- That's it.
- Sean!

- Fight, fight, fight.
- Sean, don't hit him!

Sean, Sean, stop!

It's like fighting a kid
that needs a telethon!

Lucas, can I please talk to you outside?!

What's his deal?

Lucas, did you come here to welcome me
home, or to pick a fight with Sean?

Hey, it's not my fault some people are trapped
between Neanderthal and Cro-magnon.

'Kay, he is not the one
that you're angry at.

- You came here to get back at me.
- Breaking news princess,

- not everything is about you.
- Well, then why did you cut me off?

I wasn't the one who did
the cutting, remember?

I want to be your
friend Lucas, but I just...

No! You people just think
you can push me around

like some kind of mop!
And you're no different!

You're no different from the
rest of Alison's anointed!

- What?
- You just...

You let her march around and act
like some 17th-century torture squad,

and considering what that bitch did to me,
I should have done way worse to her!

What are you talking about?

What did you do to Alison?!

Dying doesn't make you a saint.

Not when you spent all of
junior high being a monster.

Do you know what it's like to walk
through this town every single day...

and look at some shrine to her?

That was you who destroyed the memorial?

You can call the cops.

Tell them to meet me in my driveway,
it will take me 11 minutes to walk home.

Lucas, I'm not gonna call the cops.

I think that we can keep this between us.

- You've already been through enough already.
- Don't. Stop.

Please.

Don't make me like you.

It's too hard.

Is he gone?

You shouldn't be alone with him,
that kid is cracked.

- Yeah, well, anyone can surprise you.
- Who are we talking about?

You and Noel are best buds, right?

- How well do you really know him?
- Oh, I get it.

Your friend's a certified loony tune,
so now you want to pick on mine?

Sean, everyone's got a life
that no one else knows about.

And who is Noel
when he's not with you?

Hanna, you're freaking me out.

Why don't you just come inside
and try to have some fun.

- You know, people are asking all about...
- You know what? Just tell them to go home.

Okay?

I just want everyone to go home.

You need to call Alex.

And tell him what?

I can't undo this without
telling him about 'A'.

Unless you think I
should go into the kitchen

and ask 'A' to put down the piece
of pizza and call Alex himself.

Stop.

We don't know that Noel is that person.

And besides, I'm not even sure
what 'A' wants anymore. Are you?

You know what happens when you stick four
lobsters in a tank and cut off their food supply?

They start to eat each other.

Can I get to the bathroom?

Is there a magic password?

Okay, if we find out that
he is who we think he is...

what are we prepared to do about it?

- You hungry?
- No.

You never told me that
Emily tried to talk to me.

Why would I? What can she say
now that's gonna make it better?

She wasn't the one that turned me in.

I know that.

How?

Because I did.

Look Toby, if you're running around
like you're some kind of fugitive,

how are you gonna prove
that you're innocent?

You need to be home.

Where you're safe.

You could chain me to this porch, and I'd
still never touch you like that again.

Who do you think you're talking to?

Hello?

Is someone there?

Hello?

Is someone upstairs?

Damn it!

Oh, God!

What happened in here?

I thought that someone was in here.

Yeah. Looks like a lot more than
someone. You had a party?

Mona invited people over, I had no idea.

- Hi.
- How was the party?

Uh, just okay. Hanna wasn't
really in the party mode.

Well, can you blame her?

That girl doesn't need any more surprises
for at least a couple of years, right?

Is dad sleeping?

You know what? After you
left, he got a phone call.

The commander wants him in
Texas by the end of the month.

This month? Why? He just got home.

I know, Emily. It's not his decision.

There's just a bigger picture.

Tonight meant a lot to me.

Thank you.

Maya had a great time.

Your father thinks she's very sweet.

She is.

And I'm glad you're okay with it.

I'm not okay with it.

The whole thing makes me sick.

Sick to my stomach.

- Hey, dad.
- Hey, Spence.

Didn't know you were here.

I would have watched the
game downstairs with you.

Your mother makes me watch it on mute.

Just got home.

He's got a lot of stuff, Ian.

Yeah, suddenly he's, uh,
everywhere, isn't he?

Well, maybe it'll inspire your sister
to finish that condo so they can move in.

Dad...
They might never move out of here.

- Melissa loves the barn.
- Yeah, well...

Melissa's always needed a little
nudge every once in a while.

That's why your mother
thinks Ian is so good for her.

He's impulsive and, uh, passionate.

You don't agree?

I have a few other choice
words I would reserve for Ian.

But if I start listing them,
I'll never fall asleep.

Oh, uh...

I spoke to a friend of mine
on the police force tonight.

The bloodstain they found on that sweater
at Toby Cavanaugh's was a positive match.

I don't think that kid's gonna be
around much longer to scare you.

It's Alison's blood?

Does that mean it's done?

They're not going to
investigate anyone else?

I thought you'd be relieved.

Don't stay up too late, okay?

- Oh my God, I missed you guys so much!
- Why are you so tan?

How did you get so sun-kissed
sitting in your grandma's apartment?

I thought she was, like,
bedridden in a cave.

Doesn't mean I was.

- So, are we still on for tonight, ladies?
- Totally.

Spencer's mom said that
we could use their barn.

Yeah, but there might be a major
storm tonight, so I don't know if...

It's the last blowout before school
starts, Han. Don't bring me down.

Hey, can one of you guys
get those? My arms are really sore.

Yeah.

Why? Did you have to, like, lift
your grandma and bathe her?

- Yeah, it was really disgusting.
- Did you go to Hilton Head?

Oh, yeah, Nana had a day out,
and she's really into golf. Don't ask.

- So, who's in charge for refreshments?
- Oh, Hanna stole a bottle of Tequila.

Genius. Good job, Han.

- Hold onto those baggy sweaters.
- Isn't Hilton Head in South Carolina?

- I thought your grandma lived in Georgia.
- It's still the South, Spence.

Why so many questions? Guys, we've
got a long night ahead of us.

I can't spill every detail
the minute I hit the curb.

Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it.

Spence, don't forget to turn
off the yard lights, okay?

Maybe I should call Sean.

- You know, maybe he saw somebody...
- Don't... talk anymore.

Please.

- Will any of those help you sleep?
- Pink one.

Will any of 'em help me sleep?

Thank you.

- I'll get your bed ready.
- Mom...

Take your medicine, Hanna,
tomorrow's another day.
