Pretty Little Liars - "Oh, What Hard Luck Stories They All Hand Me" (5x18)
Back at Mona’s house, Lesli thinks that Hanna shouldn’t have told Aria about Mike. But Hanna tells her that Mike is a good guy and he’ll be fine. Lesli leaves to help Leona and Hanna has another flashback. She and Mona are lying in bed. Hanna asks Mona that if she used the stopwatch, she’d get older faster than the others but Mona tells her she’d fix it so that she’d stay young while others got old and if someone noticed it, it would be their problem. She asks Mona if Alison came back after a long time, in disguise, would they be able to recognize her. Mona snaps that even if Alison does come back, no one would recognize her or care about her so Alison would go crazy and wind up in Radley forever. Back in the present, Hanna picks up Mona’s book to put it back, but hears a sound. She realizes that there is something in the book and pulls on the binding and a cassette tape falls out. Hanna rushes to her car and takes the tape with her, but someone is following her.
Aria, Emily, Hanna and Spencer have been burned before by newcomers to Rosewood, so it’s no surprise they are wary when someone new crosses their path. Spencer lets down her guard a bit as she spends more time with Jonny, and Emily continues to try and figure out Talia as she keeps getting mixed signals from her co-workers. When Mona’s friend Lesli shows up in town, Hanna is tasked with finding out her back story to determine if Lesli is really who she says she is. Are the girls wise to keep an eye on everyone, or can they allow a bit of comfort room without worrying about an “A” trap? Meanwhile, Aria becomes concerned about Mike’s recent behavior and Holbrook returns to town. #PLL #PrettyLittleLiars
