Pretty Little Liars (2010–2017): Season 2, Episode 24 - If These Dolls Could Talk - full transcript

The hunt for answers about what Ali knew leads Aria, Emily, Hanna and Spencer to a rundown doll hospital that holds more than just secrets.

Previously on
"Pretty Little Liars":

You need to give me
your phone.

Hanna!

It's really old,
like six months.

Have Maya's parents
heard from her?

I have.

Are you gonna tell her parents?
She asked me not to.

If your relationship
is in so much trouble,

why not just let it go?

Toby, you can not let Jenna
back into your life again.

I am not taking the job, and I don't want
you to have that kind of power over me.



Where do you get the nerve
to talk to me this way?

Toby said that you were the one
that dragged me out.

- Yeah.
- Why?

Did you guys get
that text from 'A'?

Yes, and now Melissa is
threatening to kill our parents.

My sister is not 'A.'

Spencer, I hired
a private investigator

to look into
her disappearance.

I was worried
about your sister.

Where is she?

"It's my turn to torture you."

Take this home
and burn it.

Is it page five?

Who's Vivian Darkbloom?



I'm pretending
to be someone else.

I've got some
of Alison's things.

We were looking
in the bag for clues

when we should've been looking
at the whole bag as a clue.

Don't.

Don't scream, please.

- I needed something from the bag.
- What?

You're really mad at me,
aren't you?

Not telling you about Jason.

- Alison... - Things would have been
so different if I'd spilled.

I mean,
Jason's your brother, too,

and that practically
makes us sisters, right?

You deserve
a decent sister.

Qu'est-ce que c'est?

Ooh, painkillers.

Mind if I take a couple
for the road?

What road? You're still
hiding out as Vivian?

Alison, Aria met Duncan,
he took her up in his plane,

and he told her that he flew you
back from Hilton Head that day.

He talks too much, but I'm glad
you guys haven't given up.

Maybe now that
you've got this...

Why? What's in there?
What should I be looking for?

Can't tell you.

But don't get
hung up on the details

and miss what's parked
right in front of you.

I miss you, Spence.

I miss that fierce look
you'd get in your eyes

when you had
to know the answer,

had to win the game.

But this
isn't yahtzee, sweetie.

This is some seriously
messed-up stuff.

But here's the good news--

you're getting warmer.

Spencer?

Spence?

Jeez, it's freezing down here.

Was that door open all night?

* takin' this one
to the grave *

* if I show you
then I know you *

* won't tell what I said *

* 'cause two can keep a secret
if one of them is dead *

Spencer,
you're overthinking this.

Then why was the door open?

You're taking
two different medications.

You probably got up
in the middle of the night--

She was in
my living room, Emily.

I could still smell her
creme rinse after she left.

You think I'm losing it,
don't you?

No, I don't.

I've been there.

After I got
locked in that barn,

I woke up and she
was leaning over me.

That conversation
felt more real

than you and me
talking in this car.

So, wait, what are you saying, that she
actually was in my house this morning?

I didn't say that.
I just think that Ali is like...

Holding all
of our brains hostage,

and we won't be able to sleep until
we find out what really happened to her.

I should go
talk to these people.

We'll be late for school.

_

- Where's Emily?
- She already left.

She had to go to her house
before school

to talk with the tenants
before they move out.

Have we heard anything more

about the fire
at the DiLaurentis house?

What do you mean?

Do they know how it started?

Do they think someone
set it intentionally?

I really don't know.

What was that?

What was what?

That.

Your purse is ringing.

Hello.

Hanna?

No, this is her mother.

I don't know what
you're calling her on, Caleb,

because Hanna doesn't
own a phone any more.

It's not my phone. It's Mona's.
She gave me her old one.

She needs to be able
to reach me at all times.

Why? You pulled one girl
out of a burning building.

It doesn't make you
Rosewood's new fire chief.

Mona's in a crisis.
I need to be there for her 24/7.

What's the crisis?

Okay, Hanna,
there is no more room

for secrets and lies
in this house.

It's already way too crowded.

Morning.

Thought you were gonna honk.

- Let's go.
- Mona...

If you need
round-the-clock counseling,

you're more than welcome
to stay here for a night or two.

But no using phones.
Is that clear?

Got it. So sorry.

Ooh, is that
an egg white omelet?

You are just amazing,
Mrs. M.

You make Martha Stewart
look like a slacker.

Mona, move.

*

- Hey.
- Hi.

What are you, uh...?

My dad's at a conference
in Vermont.

Just thought we'd celebrate.

You know, most people
celebrate getting a job offer,

not turning it down.

- Well, you're definitely
not most people. - Mm.

Plus, that wasn't
a real job offer.

That was my dad trying
to control our lives.

And you showed him
that he can't.

Did I?

You know, 'cause
ever since I got back,

it's been a bit chilly.

The Dean is not
pleased with me.

Look, we knew that
there'd be fallout.

But that's just the Dean.
Your dad's not even back yet.

Probably gonna get worse.

My dad is not that powerful.

It'll pass.

Come here.

He's three states away.
You can at least lean into it.

Jenna, what are you doing?

- I can't wait till after school.
- Let the doctors do that.

I couldn't even sleep last night, Toby.
I'm too excited.

But you shouldn't--
I'm fine.

You don't need a degree
to take off a bandage.

Would you rather be alone?

I want yours to be
the first face that I see.

Jenna?

I'm so sorry.

Guys, I figured it out.

Alison took out
a classified ad

asking 'A' to meet her in
Brookhaven, and 'A' responded.

This was going on
for like a month.

Look. "Dear 'A, ' what's it
gonna take to end this?"

You need to stop.
A.D."

"Hey,
desperately seeking silence,

who says I wanna end this?
'A.'"

- Let me see that.
- What's this one?

It's the last paper
before Labor Day weekend.

Alison was set to meet 'A'
at 235 Spruce Street.

Why do I know that street?

Because we walked on it.

The creepy doll hospital?

Guys.

She took off the bandage.

She's not using the stick.

Why is she still
wearing the shades?

Hanna, stop staring.

Are they all here?

Yes.

Thanks, Toby.
I'll meet you inside.

Sorry to interrupt.

Can you see or not?

Hanna.

Wait,
the surgery didn't...?

No, it didn't.

I went in knowing the odds,
so I can't be shocked.

The funny thing is, I woke up
this morning and, uh...

I could see clearly.

Just not with my eyes.

You could've left me in that
smoky room, Hanna, but you...

You didn't.

Instead, you...
You saved my life.

And it made me realize that...

That people can grow.

So now it's my turn,
and that's why I'm here.

I'm here to...
To apologize

and to let go of the anger
that's been holding me back.

So can we just please...
Move on?

What exactly are you
apologizing for, Jenna?

For holding a grudge
and, uh...

For hating you.

We've all done things
that we're not proud of.

I know what you think of me.

But you're wrong.

I've never been the person
you really need to fear.

*

Please don't tell me
you bought that.

I kinda did.

Guys, if that surgery
didnt work,

there's no way
she hates us less.

I still believe she had something
to do with that fire at Jason's.

So you think she set the fire
and then just walked into it?

Yeah, I've heard of cutting off your
nose to spite your face, but that's--

Cutting off your whole face.

Well, if Jenna isn't 'A, '

then who is she talking about?

Garrett?

Melissa.

Hanna,
Melissa openly admitted

to sending Ali
angry text messages.

If she was 'A,"
why would she do that?

I don't know.
I don't have the answer.

I think Vivian did.

I think she found out.

That's why she's
not sitting with us.

So what?
What do we do now?

We retrace Ali's steps,
go back to Brookhaven.

We're too close now to back off.

Guess who just
got "hext" again.

- What?
- "Break up Hanna and her hottie

"or you go back to being
a junior high nottie.

Don't test me.
'A.'"

'A' just sent you this?

Why are you confused?

This is typical
a-wipe behavior, right?

Pushing me
to break you guys up.

Did you get a text, too?

I'm phoneless, remember?

Damn, I forgot. Here.

Check and see if you were hit.

I haven't received
anything since the fire.

Then Jenna came in this morning
all sorry and Kumbaya.

Hold it. Jenna Marshall
is sending these?

God, I thought that blind
"beyotch" only stole boyfriends.

I didn't say that, all right?
Mona, I've gotta go.

Hanna, wait.
Who do you think is sending these?

Honestly, I have no idea, but maybe I'll
get more information after Brookhaven.

What's in Brookhaven?

- Hey.
- Hey.

Sorry about this morning.
Did you get in trouble?

I'm always in trouble.

So are we still on for tonight?

Yes, um...

Mona's sleeping over, though,
so maybe she can join us?

Oh, great.

Actually, I can't.
Got a paper due.

But we're still on
for our slumber party.

See ya.

Can you at least
pretend not to hate her?

I thought that I was.

_

_

He couldn't run Ezra out of town,
so now he's shipping me off.

What did Ezra say?

Well, he's not
really surprised.

My dad's
turning this into a war.

So what are you gonna do?

Look, can you just hurry up
and figure it out?

Because Vermont
is like Iceland the sequel.

Wait, there's no 235.

You guys, look.

Um, hi.

Hi. Um, sorry.
Excuse me.

We're not open.

Oh, well,
we've tried to call you,

your shop
a couple of times.

We just want to ask
a few questions.

You can ask, but it don't
mean I'll have the answers.

Um, we just wanted
to know if you keep a record

of all of the customers
who purchase your dolls.

We don't sell much.
It's mostly repairs.

Oh, um, well,
you do sell some dolls,

because a friend of ours might
have received that one as a gift.

We never sold those.
That was left here and never picked up.

Could you tell us
who might have left it?

I couldn't tell you
what I had for lunch.

Y'all better come inside.

Seth, baby, turn on the light,
would ya? We got guests.

My late sister did the books.

I've been trying
to sell the shop.

No takers.

Kids these days only like
things they can Google.

Which doll was it again?

So many faces in here,
they start to blur.

Uh, it was a small one,
kind of folksy and burlap-y.

- Terrifying.
- They mean the voodoo doll.

There was another girl came in
asking about the same one.

When was that?

Summer before last.

I can't make heads or tails
out of this.

Let me check
that stack over there.

This girl who came in...

What was she asking?

She wanted to know
who bought it.

Was this her?

That's her face,
but she had dark hair.

Lots of it, like that.

Um, did you
ever figure it out?

The person that
she was looking for?

No, but I told her
to stop looking.

Why?

There are people
who wanted to hurt her.

A man and a woman.

Seth, hold your tongue.

What is he talking about?

When did these people
come into the shop?

They didn't. That's something
he saw in his mind.

He sees things--

things that haven't
happened yet.

He's gifted.

This couple who was after her...

What did they look like?

Dark hair, like yours.

Um, was she wearing sunglasses?
Did she have a cane?

- Is she blind?
- Oh, no, she can see.

Seth, baby, why don't you take the
groceries up to the kitchen, hear?

Sorry about
what happened to her.

Must have been awful,
breathing dirt into your lungs.

I don't even like
sand in my mouth.

Seth, baby, go.
You said enough.

You think this will be
enough to split?

Guys, seriously,
he's nine years old,

he's never seen the sun, and he probably
lives in a cupboard with like 600 dolls.

Okay? So you don't need
to get all freaked out

over a newsflash
from Casper the friendly host.

Aria, he remembers Alison.

Okay? He warned her that
something bad was gonna happen.

Well, if it wasn't Jenna and Garrett,
who was the couple he saw in his head?

- Melissa and Ian.
- Can you let it go?

No, he said the girl
wasn't blind.

Yeah, well, that doesn't mean
that we have to go back there.

Yeah, we do.

My parents thought that Melissa
could've killed Alison.

Say that again.

They hired a detective
after Ali disappeared.

What did the detective find?

I don't know, but Melissa
tried to convince me

that my father
wanted to see Ali dead.

Wait. Melissa accused your father
of wanting Alison dead. Why?

Why would he want that?

Because Alison
knew that my dad...

My dad is Jason's father, too.

She would drop hints
and make weird jokes

about how close
our families were.

And then Jason figured it out
and he told me...

Recently.

So your father and...

Did Ali rub this
in Melissa's face, too?

All I know is that Melissa
hates Alison's guts.

She worked in the next town over

and she probably drove past
that creepy doll shop every day.

- Hey. - I'm gonna leave these
for you to put away.

Fine.

Was everything okay
at school today?

Yep.

Have you spoken to dad?

Yeah, he's enjoying
his conference.

Really?
He didn't miss too much of it?

You know, taking tours
of boarding schools.

What was the plan, mom?

Were you gonna haul me off kicking and
screaming in the middle of the night?

- We were just exploring options.
- Oh, what a relief.

Wow, you're only exploring
the idea of ruining my life.

- Aria, calm down.
- How am I supposed to feel?

One minute you're processing
the idea of me and Ezra,

and then the next
I'm being exiled to Siberia?

That is not why
I'm considering this.

There is something going on in your
life. I know you're being bullied.

The only people bullying me right
now in my life are you and dad.

I am just trying
to keep you safe!

Okay, you might be.
Dad's trying to punish me.

Okay, and that's really unfair because
I forgave him for what he did.

If I had wanted to hurt him, I
could've done something about it.

I still could.

And what do you think would
happen if the Dean found out

dad was having an affair
with one of his grad students?

Where do you think
they'd send him?

Oh, good, you're home.

I could use your help.

Um, with what?

Thank-you notes
from the baby shower.

Who sent me
something from Florida?

Oh, it must be
Aunt Joyce. Sweet.

I think they're still open,
but I'm too tired.

I'll go tomorrow.

Okay.

Whose bag is that
in your room?

Why were you in my room?

I needed
Lizzy Farren's address.

Why are you being so jumpy?

I just--I didn't sleep
very well last night.

Um, the bag is Alison's.

Jason gave me
some of her things.

Give them to charity.

It's morbid holding on
to that kind of stuff.

Melissa...

Hmm?

Can you explain this?

She's coming upstairs.

Where is she?

How do you even have this?

Did you steal it from Ian?

What were you doing in Alison's bedroom
the night of her disappearance?

- I thought we were beyond this.
- I'm concerned.

Mom and dad were, too.
That's why they hired somebody--

- Look, they suspected you.
- Of what?

I just wanna help you, Melissa,
because if you did something--

I didn't do anything.

I was in that house
looking for Ian.

Okay, so why didn't you tell anybody
that you saw Garrett and Jenna there?

Just because they wanted to see Ali
dead doesn't mean they killed her.

Half this town wanted
that girl to disappear.

I don't think that
I can hold on to this.

I think that the police
need to see it,

and I don't mean Garrett.

I'd be careful, Spence.

You turn that in, there are other
videos out there that might surface.

I've seen some stuff that makes you
and your friends look pretty bad.

Like what?

I never asked questions
about what I saw,

but I'm guessing
that the police will.

She's bluffing.

That's a pretty big hand
to play with no cards.

That's what happens
when you have nothing.

You play big and
you psyche everybody out.

Okay, but what if Melissa
is telling the truth?

What if there was a camera on us
the night of the Jenna thing?

You know what?
Enough is enough.

If we have to trick Melissa into sending
a text message to prove that she's 'A, '

then that's what we'll do.

You're kidding, right?

Is this some kind of test?

- Please?
- Okay.

Cracking the code
to a cell phone is one thing,

but now we are crossing over
to like Fear Factor territory.

You know how I feel about Mona.

I know, but I also know

there's someone out there
trying to split us up.

Did something happen since--

It's not about what
this person's already done.

It's about what
we can get them to do.

Now. Tonight.

Mom...

Did you make that call
to the Dean?

No.

Well, I talked
to your father,

and the boarding school idea
has been shelved for the moment.

- Oh, thank you.
- No, don't thank me.

Look, you have to understand, you
guys pushed me into a corner.

Your threat had nothing
to do with our decision.

Why would we send you
to another state

when you are already
a million miles away?

I don't even recognize the kid who
would turn on her own family.

You can't ask me
to turn on Ezra either, mom.

You know, when I found out
about you two,

I was angry
and I was confused.

But I have never been ashamed
of you... until yesterday.

If you could've heard the silence
on the other end of the phone

when I told your father
what you said...

I don't even know how to
get back to who we once were.

So should we put
the dome light on?

Or is that too weird?

I think we passed
weird about two blocks ago.

- What are you doing?
- Unbuckling.

- Why?
- The car stopped moving. We're parked.

Caleb, look,
I'm not an idiot, okay?

I know you'd like to see
my head on a stick.

You know what?
Let's just not go there.

We have to, okay?

'Cause we both love Hanna,
and that's why we're here.

After Alison disappeared,

me and Hanna
got really tight.

Junior high was hellacious.

We both needed
extreme makeovers,

and we got 'em.

Everything changed.

And then...

You.

You know, Hanna
found this great guy, and

I was like serial dating
the lacrosse team.

I admit...

I was jealous.

_

It's showtime.

Caleb, don't stop.

We're doing this for Hanna.

Are you sure
that Melissa went--

Positive.

Emily followed her there.

I don't know how
you got him to agree.

He loves me more than
he hates Mona, that's how.

Believe me,
I'm not digging this either.

Who's it from?

Hanna, let me see.

_

Do we need any more proof?
It's been Melissa all along.

"Spencer's sister's 'A."

I can't find my phone so we'll
have to phone through my laptop.

Wait, who?

The police.

Are you driving or me?

Hanna, this is my sister!

What am I gonna tell my parents?
They tried to protect her!

Yeah, so did you!
For way too long!

We should've turned her in the
second that we knew she texted Ali.

Mom?

Where have you been?

I drove Caleb home.
He told Mona he wanted to walk.

He doesn't get why we aren't
trapping Jenna and Garrett.

To him, that's the enemy.

Well, he's wrong.
We have proof now.

- No, we might need more.
- More?

I just forced my boyfriend to make out
with my best friend from junior high.

What's next?
Hiding in Melissa's closet?

Rubbing her belly
until the baby confesses?

- Hanna, Jenna and Garrett--
- No, Emily!

Stop confusing us!
We know who 'A' is now!

No, Hanna!
We're still just guessing!

What if we show that kid
the video from Alison's room?

- Let Seth tell us which couple--
- Have you lost your mind?

We are now going to ask
a nine-year-old sideshow

to tell us
who's been torturing us?

Hanna, he remembered Alison.

So what?
He reads the paper.

It doesn't mean that he can bend
a spoon just by staring at it.

He knew how she died.
That was never in the paper.

Hey there.

So did it work?

Did you guys get a text?

No. No, not yet.

What's in the bag?

Shower gel. I need to scrub
off ten layers of shame.

Well, um,
I'm gonna go shower.

See you before lights out.

You can't tell her everything.

Hey, this is Spencer's family.

Fine. We'll show
Seth baby the video.

That's the only stop we're making
before the police station.

Hey.

I thought you were
working late tonight.

Turns out
I didn't have to.

Oh.

Well, um,
I got some good news.

They're pulling the plug
on boarding school.

Do you know what
changed their minds?

Yeah, I had to dig up
some pretty ugly stuff

that I'd definitely
rather keep buried,

but, hey, you gotta fight
one battle at a time, right?

Right.

Well, we may have
just lost the war.

What are you talking about?

I got fired today.

Next Monday
will be my last class.

Hey.
There's dinner if you're--

No, I'm gonna
eat later. Thanks.

What's that about?

He just sits in his car now
and watches our house?

- Who?
- Garrett.

What does he want?

I don't know.

Close the curtains.

I'll be in my room
if you need me.

Actually, Toby, wait.

Can I show you something?

_

How do you have this?

Garrett asked me
to keep it safe for him.

He said it was important.

Do you know what this is?

No, I don't.
That's why I gave it to you.

It's a page
from an autopsy report.

What?

Jenna, why would
he give this to you?

I don't know.

But I think the police
should have it, Toby.

Will you take me there?

Do you think
it's too late?

Yes.

They could be downstairs.

Hello?

Hello?

Martha?

Are you down here?

Why's the light on?

Looks like somebody just left.

You guys, let's just go.

Wait. Look.

She said she didn't sell these.

She did.

Martha?

Um, I'm sorry.
We're down here.

Okay, let's just
come back when they're open.

That would be 1979.
Just find a light switch.

Let's not and just leave.

End up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

Follow me,
end up like me.

- Hanna!
- No, wait, my laptop!

Follow me,
end up like me.

End up like me. End up like me.
End up like me.

Basically, they said
they no longer offer my class.

But they'll probably
just re-name the course

and hire somebody who
your father likes to teach it.

I swear to you, if I knew
that my dad was gonna do this--

Aria, stop. You're not gonna break
up your family to keep us together.

That's not a choice.

What are you gonna do?

I'll...

Probably head up
to my folks' place for a while,

regroup, send out resumes,
make cold calls.

When will you be back?

Aria...

If I can't teach high school
in this town, or college,

what's left?

It's what I do...

And I need to find
a place where I can do it.

Look, wherever that is, they're
really lucky to have you.

Do you have any idea
how much I love you?

* No, I don't wanna
fall in love *

* this world is only
gonna break your heart *

* No, I don't wanna
fall in love *

* this world is only
gonna break your heart *

* with you *

* No, I... *

What all should we take?

Wait, put that
in the duffel bag.

We have
to give them everything.

What are you looking for?

I have no idea.

This feels really weird,
giving them all of Ali's stuff.

Well, maybe there's something
in here that the police can use.

Alison even said there was.

What? When?

Yesterday.

In a dream.

Okay, why am I just
hearing about this now?

You want this in the barn?
It's heavy.

No, it's not.
I'll be fine.

I don't want you carrying any
more than you already are.

Do you want a beer?

You're off duty.

Um, I'll just take
a soda if you got one.

Is someone else here?

I don't think so.

- Are you sure your sister
didn't... - Stop worrying.

I've been scaring her
since she was born.

There's no way she or her friends
are turning in that video.

Trust me.

Officer, hi.
Um, is something wrong?

Neil. Well, what, uh,
what's going on?

We're here
on official business.

Officer Reynolds, will you
please surrender your weapon?

What? What the hell is this?

Why are you doing this?
What has he done?

Garrett Reynolds,
you're under arrest.

For what?

The murder of
Alison DiLaurentis.

* My heart is jumpin' *

I know what our deal was,

but this is a lot more
than I bargained for.
