Pretty Little Liars (2010–2017): Season 4, Episode 12 - Now You See Me, Now You Don't - full transcript

Previously on
Pretty Little Liars...

Mrs. Grunwald?

It was three summers ago.

She thought that
somebody was after her,

so maybe she was asking
for help or a place to stay.

I can't help you.

I thought we'd done a good job

of establishing
a sense of trust.

That was before I realized
where your loyalties were.

Who else knows about my mother?

Keeping this a secret has meant
that I've had to choose



between you and them.

And you chose them.

Jake. What can
I do for you?

You gotta let her move on.

Have you spoken to Ezra?

I can't, Emily.
I told you.

This isn't about Jake.
He's losing Malcolm.

Really rather not
drag you into it.

You're not leaving, Ezra.

I know you're mom's innocent.

Wait. You were
at the lake that night?

You heard the gunshots
after Mrs. Marin drove off?

She wasn't there
when he was killed.

That's Jenna's car.



Who is Jenna so afraid of?

Cece Drake.

An eye witness
has stepped forward

and unconfirmed inside sources
say this witness

Has detailed information
about the crime

and the parties involved.

So far,
the district attorneys...

I don't get it.

Why would the cops want my
mom to come in for a line up

if Travis told the truth?

Do you think that "A" found
a way to shut him up again?

Hanna, don't go there.

Travis made you a promise,

and he seems like
a stand-up guy.

Plus he's really cute.
And he's quite the dancer.

It's addressed to all of us.

"If she goes free,"

"you'll hear from me."

"Kisses"

"A"

so if my mom gets off...

Cece is coming for us.

I say, bring it.

Maybe then, she'll leave
our parents alone.

Or did she just declare
word war "A"?

Okay, Travis.

We need a positive ID of the
woman you saw leaving the scene

before the shots were fired.

Okay.

Take your time.

Number one, step forward.

Step back.

Number two, step forward.

Step back.

I'm not sure I can do this.

Now, I'm sure you all remember
the witches from MacBeth

and the fairies and forests
of a midsummer night's dream,

but beyond having a sorcerer
as a protagonist,

the tempest considers the magical
quality of love at first sight.

The love between Miranda
and ferdinand

is a force of nature.

A love that reunites
torn countries

and sets captive spirits free.

Make sure to read the
first act for next week.

Miss Montgomery, can I have
a minute of your time?

Thanks for coming
over last night.

I really needed you,
I just didn't know how to ask.

Yeah, of course. I'm glad that
I could be there for you.

As a friend.

Hey. Are we still
on for tonight?

Cool. There's this poetry
reading at the brew.

They're calling him a
contemporary poe.

Oh. Sure.

No. No, no, no.
It's, um...

It's cool. We can do dinner
and a movie or something.

Mm-hmm.

All right, bye.

Thank you.

No. Don't thank me yet.

They probably made
it yesterday.

Not for the coffee.

For the way you've
taken care of Hanna.

I don't worry about her
as much when she's with you.

Mrs. Marin, you didn't
deserve any of this.

But I've watched the way
that you've handled it.

Hanna never settles.

When she goes after
something, she's fearless.

Now I know where she gets that.

Well, I've had my moments,
I promise you.

Yeah, but you didn't break.

Caleb, after all
that we've been through,

you can call me Ashley.

I don't know what the
hell is taking so long.

I can't wait any longer.

Here they come.

Mrs. Marin, I'm Sidney Barnes,
the district attorney.

I just wanted to tell
you this myself.

We're dropping the charges
against you.

You're free to go.

I'm thrilled for
Hanna and her mom,

but I'm worried for you.

If "A" makes good
on her threat...

"A" is a terrorist.
That's what she wants.

To make us worry.
And we can't give into her.

I'd feel better if we
knew where Cece was.

'Cause right now, it feels
like she's everywhere.

Well, we know who
to look out for now.

We're so close to putting and end
to this game, Paige. I can feel it.

How about until we do,

you spend the nights
at my house.

I'll know you're safe
and we'll get to be together.

I need to know
that you're okay.

So, please just call
Emily or Caleb.

Just check in.

Please.

Mrs. Marin,
you look incredible.

Pastor Ted's jaw
is gonna hit the floor

when he sees you in that dress.
It's not too much?

- No!
- Mom, you look perfect.

And Ted may have
the patience of a Saint,

but he's still a man.

He's been waiting a while.

So go out and have fun.

I love you, honey.
Love you, too, mom.

Bye, girls.

Bye!

Where do we start?

Let's start at the ends, and I will
meet you in the middle for dessert.

She forgot her keys.

It's for all of us.

What happens if we
just don't open it?

We can't win the game
if we don't know what it is.

It's a kid's coffin, right?

It's Mona.

"Hanna wins, so Mona loses.

"Find her before the cops,
or...

or they'll
think you killed her. - A."

Breaking news in the
murder investigation

of Detective Darren Wilden.

Hanna.

She's on the phone with Radley.

...released a sketch of a
possible suspect in the case.

If you have any...

That's Cece.

Oh, my God.
She really did do it.

They haven't ID'd her yet, but
somebody's gonna recognize her.

Well then, we better
find Mona fast.

Okay. Thanks.

Mona is no longer
a patient at Bradley.

What?

Released or sent
to another hospital?

It's privileged information.

I'll go make a house call
to Dr. Wren. He's privileged.

Emily, can you circle
back to school?

It's French club Friday, so maybe
somebody's heard from her?

Yeah, I was supposed
to meet up with Paige,

but I'll just take her with me.

I was supposed to
cook dinner for Jake,

but I'll just cancel.
No!

You know what Cece's
capable of.

Keep jet li
as close as you can.

Where are you going?

To find Mona.

Hanna, slow down.

This could be your ex-bff
messing with us.

She's probably eating popcorn,

watching us play
desperately seeking Mona.

If Cece does have her, the
cops know she killed Wilden.

She has nothing to lose.

Come on, Wren. Be home.

You're Jackie, right?

You haven't heard
from Mona, have you?

Seriously?

Downloaded a French app
when I was in Haiti.

Wow, look at you.
Go ahead. Parlez vous.

Croissant?

No, thanks.

"Vous faites avoir

des nouvelles de Mona?"

Elle a appelé ce matin.
Elle apportait le cassoulet.

I think that means
Mona was bringing a casserole.

Okay, cut the crap, Jackie.
This is important.

Have you heard from her or not?

She called me this morning.

She was on her way home from
her court-appointed timeout.

She told me
she was coming tonight.

And she just didn't show up?

No, and I'm really surprised
because this was supposed to be

her welcome back party.

Hey, Spence, it's me.

We have to talk.

I wanted to believe
that my sister

pulled herself out of this mess

when she left town.

What is Shana's
connection to Wren?

I don't know, but it looks like your
ex-boyfriend is moving in with his ex-fiancée.

Why would they
keep that a secret?

Because he's your ex-boyfriend.

Tonight,
there will be showers...

I wanna talk to you
about what happened last night.

But if I do, are you
just gonna take off again?

I had some thinking to do.

That's not good enough.

Okay, you could've called.

You could've just
sent ma a text.

"Give me space."
I know.

Three words
and I would've been fine.

I know, okay? And I'm sorry.

You...

You can't just
disappear like that.

Not anymore.

Not after
what happened last time.

When I worry about "A"
getting a hold of you or...

or hurting you, or worse,

you know, I have a very real picture
of what that looks like in my mind.

I was in town, Spencer, okay?
I was right here.

Well, not for me, you weren't.

When I used to feel like
the walls were closing in,

I'd take off.

But this time, I stayed.

For you.

You were right.

Last night...

Trying to break in
to Dr. Palmer's car...

That's as close
as I wanna get to "a."

I don't want you
to stop looking.

You deserve to know
what happened to your mom.

I don't want
"A's" version of the truth.

It's not worth it.

I'd like a more detailed
description of this girl Lucy.

You needn't bother.

Take this. I'm hogging
the kettle corn.

No, seriously,
I I need an intervention.

Long day and a good meal.

It gets me every time.

Well, I could
make us some coffee.

No.

Honestly, I could use the rest.

We'll watch the rest later?

Yeah, sure.

Thanks.

I'll call you.

Okay.

Bye.

Bye.

Hanna, I swear I saw someone
in that upstairs window.

So you think Mona's just sitting
in her house, in the dark?

As twisted as she is,

I wouldn't put it past her.

Look, she stuck
her neck out for my mom.

I know after
everything she's done,

it may seem like
another one of her tricks,

but Mona would've never
confessed to killing Wilden

if I didn't put that idea
in her head in the first place.

Hanna, if Mona
is really in trouble,

it is not your fault.

You're safe here, em.

It's not me I'm worried about.

It's Mona.

Door!

- Sorry.
- Don't be.

Your parents would have
the same rule if I were a guy.

If you were a guy,
you wouldn't be here.

Maybe we should watch a movie
to take your mind off things.

I don't know if I could
sit still for that long.

I have to be honest.

I get worrying about Cece,
but not Mona.

She tried to kill you.

I know,
but we created the beast.

No, Ali did that.

Yeah, and we let her.

How was the reading?

Intense.

One of his poems
reminded me of the story

you wrote about the cat,
"found but lost."

I can't believe that
you remember that.

I always thought
it was about Ali.

Well, it was, I just didn't know
that when I was writing it.

Probably why it was so honest.

Hi. Um, can I get
a cappuccino?

Could I actually
get a refill, too?

That's always been
what's tough for me,

writing a good story before
I can think my way out of it.

I get it.

It's like
you wanna know the ending,

but you still
wanna be surprised.

Yeah. I remember
when I was little,

I'd always read
the last page before...

Can't stop thinking
about Mona.

We know "A"
likes to play with us...

But this time,
I don't know what the game is.

It's, "I'm going down
and I'm dragging you with me."

They know who
they're looking for now.

They're gonna find Cece.

"A" can't even give us one day.

I mean, I'm supposed to be
at home with my mom celebrating,

and all I can think about
is poor Mona.

I never, ever thought that
we'd be saying "poor Mona."

Guys, another one.

There's nothing in here.
It's just an empty box.

Or maybe not.

For once, I'm right
and you're wrong, Spencer.

How did you just do that?

Took home first prize for my magic
act at performing arts camp.

Of course you did.

"Watch me make
a girl disappear. Kisses, a"

it's magic.

What?

"Watch me make
a girl disappear."

"A" is not playing a game,
she's putting on a magic show.

Why would Cece do that?

People wanna go to magic shows
to be deceived.

They wanna believe in something
they know can't be true.

Wait, so if "A" is putting on a magic
show and we're the audience...

No, we're not the audience.

I think we're
a part of her act.

And she's gonna make
Mona disappear forever.

Was it all quiet here
last night?

Yeah, a little too quiet.

Hanna's convinced this is "A,"

but it smells like Mona to me.

If she was missing, don't you think
that her parents would call the police?

Or maybe they don't know. It
looks like they're out of town.

I swear, if I find out that this is her
jerking us around, I'm gonna kill her myself.

Did you get any sleep?

Dozed off for a few minutes
after Hanna left.

Well, go home.
I'll call you if she shows up.

Okay. Thanks.

I get the magic eight ball connection,
but I don't understand the saw.

Well, it's debatable,
but most people give credit

to Torrini for being the first
illusionist to saw a woman in two.

And when I saw Chriss Angel do it, the
top half of the woman crawled away.

It was totally twisted, but it turned
out that he just used this woman

with sacral agenesis,
which is this congenital...

okay, can you just
stop talking, please?

Yeah.

Okay.

Nope. Try again.

I don't know. I mean, is there a magic
shop in town that we don't know about?

Nothing.

No, no, no, click here.

"The great charlemagne."

He's putting on a show
in Ravenswood this afternoon.

Ravenswood?
That can't be a coincidence.

Spence, you're driving.

We're still heading east.

I'll stay on her tail.

Just be careful, okay?

I love you.

Toby says that Shana's
driving Jenna's car.

Is Mona with her?
No, nobody's with her.

So where's she going?

He thought that
they were coming here,

but they just passed the exit.

Guys...

It's this way. Over here.

Well, if "A" wanted us to watch him make
a girl disappear, we're right on time.

I think we're being watched.

Let's all stick together.

Wh... me? No way.

- You have to.
- You can't resist.

Aw.

Really, I just don't do boxes.

- Here, take her. She loves magic.
- What?

I don't think he's going away. I
know this trick. You'll be okay.

Good job! Whoo!

- Bye.
- Later.

Wait, where'd she go?

Just wait a second.

That was great!

Where's Emily?

"Lager Dee main"?

Lager Dee main.
"Slight of hand."

While we were watching you,
"A" took Emily.

Emily, are you there?

Aria?

Are you all right?

I don't know where I am!

Look around you.
What do you see?

Nothing! It's dark!

We're gonna find you,
I promise.

You just have to help us out.

I think I'm locked in a coffin!

It's a saw! I hear a saw!

Like a chainsaw?

No! It's big and loud!
It's cutting wood!

Like a saw mill?

It's getting louder! Closer!

Grunwald lived on
saw mill road.

Oh, my God. It's right here.

We're practically on top of it.

Hold on, em, we're coming!

Emily? Emily!

I'm here! I'm here!

Oh, my God!

Guys, I'm in here!
Emily!

It's locked! It's locked!
Go! Go get something! Hurry!

Oh, my God!

Hold on!
Get me out!

Hurry! Hurry! Hold on, em!

Guys, get me out!

Come on, hurry!
Oh, my God!

Oh, my God! Hurry up!

There we go!

There are two of them?

No! Just let me out!

Emily, it's okay. You're safe.
I'm getting you out.

Oh, God!

Give it up, Cece!

Help me! Help me!
Hold on!

Hold on, Cece! Hold on!
Aria!

Hold on!

Aria, help!

Is she...?

She fell.

You tried to save her.

Look, Aria,
this is not your fault.

Are you sure you're okay, Aria?
Did she hurt you?

We should just call the police.

She's gone.

God, that bitch has nine lives.

We need to get out of here. Now.

I have to show you something.
Come on.

Come on!

I think that the red coat that I
was chasing might have been Ali.

She waited for me at the door, at the corner.
She wanted me to follow her.

And this is what
Ali wanted us to see.

What is this place?

I think it's "A's" lair.

There's a timeline
for each of us.

All our secrets,
private moments...

he's documenting everything.

What is that?

That's how "A"
has been watching us.

"A" is monitoring the police, watching
the streets, our alarm systems.

That's how "A" is everywhere.

You sure she's okay with this?

She doesn't have a choice.

Have a seat.

Caleb, it's not working.

Did you hit shift-command
when you entered the numbers?

I did exactly what
you told me to do.

I don't like the idea
of you guys being there alone.

And I can't get into
that computer from here.

Well, I'm not gonna say
don't come.

I'm not waiting for Toby.
He's still at the hotel.

Mona might be safe, but that
doesn't mean she's not in on this.

So when will I see you?

I'll get on the next bus.

I think I just found
"A's" bank account.

All right, well, just call me
when you're on the road, okay?

Okay.
Bye.

It looks like "A"
formed a corporation.

Didn't Cece
study business at UPenn?

Yeah, but I don't think
this is hers.

It looks like she's
just on the payroll.

There are two payments
made to Cece Drake last week.

Maybe "A" paid her
to dress up as red coat.

Yeah, to lead us away from Ali.

I think "A" is a guy.

Have you guys seen these?

Wait, I was with Ali
when she bought that shirt.

She said she needed it for a date
that night with an older guy.

Maybe Ian?

Or Wren. He's been
hanging out with Shana,

and he's back with Melissa.

No, I don't think
that Wren's "a."

'Cause "A" has been
watching him. Look.

Well, I still think that all
roads lead back to board shorts.

I mean, the name
of the company is Higbee,

and that was Ali's
favorite beach in Cape May.

Do you think that board shorts is the
one who's taking these pictures?

Is that who Cece's working for?

Look, this is
a letter from Ali.

She met this boy in Rosewood.

And she lied about her age.
He thought that she was 18.

That trip to the shore
Mrs. D. told Hanna about...

Ali never planned on inviting us.
She was taking him there.

Guys...

"A" hasn't just
been watching us.

I think that he's
been following Ali, too.

He has her at the lodge
the night of the fire.

It looks like he's been following
her trail to Ravenswood.

If Ali's been alive
this whole time,

then whose funeral
did we go to?

Okay, that's creepy.

They're having
a celebration tonight.

Yeah, and board shorts thinks
that Ali is gonna be there.

Which means we have
to find her first.

It's a beautiful night for a party,
but it's for invited guests only.

How did you know that
we were going to...

I'm Mrs. Grunwald.

We have somewhere
we need to be.

I know.

But it's dangerous for you
to go chasing after her.

Are you talking about Alison?

The girl you said
you never met.

I'm sorry I lied to you.

But I did it to protect her.

From who?

She was calling me
that summer to find out.

In the sorority house.

It was you.

She was afraid.

And she was right to be.

What kind of help
could you give her?

I have a gift of insight.

I was using it to help Alison
see who was threatening her.

The night she went missing...

I felt something terrible.

I drove to Rosewood....

And I walked into her backyard.

And she was reaching for life.

Her head was bloody.

She was very confused.
She was in shock.

I put her in the car
and I drove her to the hospital.

I ran in to get help.

When I returned, she was gone.

So you're saying that
Ali's still alive?

Haven't you all felt it?

She was never really gone.

Have you seen her again?

Seen her? Not since that night.

Until she finds
who she can trust...

she can trust us.

She knows that.

I wouldn't be so sure.

Why didn't you
just go to the police?

She doesn't want to be found.

Why are you
telling us this now?

Because you need
to leave Ravenswood.

Why?

You're being watched.

He's hoping you'll
lead him to Alison.

He's here.

Maybe she's right.
Maybe we should just leave.

So we're supposed to pack it in just
because a soothsayer tells us to?

I mean, for all we know,
she could be on "A's" payroll.

She can't prove that
any of that story was true.

Ali was calling Grunwald because she
believed that she could help her.

Yeah, I believe her, too.

She was telling us
what we're thinking, right?

That Ali's still alive.

No, that's what
a good charlatan does.

She tells you
what you wanna believe.

Maybe Grunwald
doesn't want us to come tonight

because she knows
that Ali will be there.

And "A" is gonna be
looking for her.

We're crashing a party.
