Pretty Little Liars 3x20 Promo Breakdown

Okay, the promo for the next episode is SUPER EXCITING. I can't wait. We're actually getting close to the end of the season, which is really weird. I don't want it to end. Then I'll have to wait ALL SUMMER for Season 4 to start. At least I'll have bogus-season-four-crappy-community. :(

Anyways, here's my breakdown for the promo:

1-5 seconds: Aria says to Spencer "I know that you don't need a friend right now, but that doesn't mean your friends don't need you."
We've seen this part in a sneak peak, in which Spencer hides in the bathroom to avoid talking to Aria. Aria sees, follows, and the following conversation ensues:

6-7 seconds: Hanna and her Mom get out of their car behind a police car on a dark street at night, horrified/worried looks on their faces. Possibly in reaction to Emily getting hit by a car (seen later in the promo, I think.) 

Police Car: *is a police car

Hanna: Woa, Mom, is that a police car? With ambulances and crap in front of it?

Hanna's Mom: Let's go INVESTIGATE!

*gets out of car

Hanna: OMG, is that -?

Emily: *is in a coma

Hanna: NOOOOOOOOO!!!

Either that or they are acting all worried/horrified because Aria or Spencer or someone called them and was like "HOLY CRAP EMILY BEEN HIT BY CAR." and then Hanna was like "HOLY CRAP MOM WE NEED TO SEE EMILY!"

8 seconds: Emily's peaking through a door in the Halloween costume shop. She might be breaking in to go through all the security camera records since Shana was all like "I can't give out that information." Later in the promo, Emily goes through some sort of files on a computer, which I think might be her breaking into all the security camera files.

8.5 seconds: The four girls look up nervously from a table (at the coffee shop, I think). Narrator guy tells us that some secrets are used to divide. DUM DUM DUMMM.

9 seconds: Goes from a black transition to Spencer closing her eyes and leaning against a brick pillar thing in the school lunch-courtyard place.

10 seconds: Hanna and Emily are in the same courtyard. Emily's like "Why would she lie about knowing him?", probably referring to Cece Drake denying having heard of Wilden on the boat in Cape May. Then Emily found a picture of Wilden, Ali, and Cece on a boat together (the picture was lost in Jason's elevator accident) so Cece was lying.

11 seconds: "A" (Toby/Mona?) chops the flower parts off a bunch of roses with this huge knife. The cutting board is in front of the doll house with the dolls of the four girls. I'm assuming this is for the hoodie scene at the end of the episode, because I don't see how cutting up a bunch of flowers could progress the plot in any way, and it seems like one of those creepy-weird-random things that Hoodie person would do.

12-13 seconds: Little Red Riding Hood in all of her mysterious shadowy blonde-with-red-cloak glory turns away on a shadowy, dark street. Emily turns around (I'm not sure about the context for that) and...

EMILY GETS HIT BY A FREAKING CAR.

I'm pretty sure it's Emily. It looks enough like Emily and enough not like anyone else to convince me. 

There are several possible explanations for why Emily might have been hit (although why Emily was on that street in the first place and who, if anyone, was with her, I have no way of knowing.)

The first one that I thought of was that it was punishment for Spencer ratting out Toby to the other three girls. When Spencer got the threat "Or I'll take down one of your three", I thought it meant "I'll show the police a bunch of pictures of one of them at Ali's dug-up grave that night, but it could also potentially mean "I'll mow over them with a car."

Spencer: Call Hanna and Emily. I know who's helping Mona.

Aria: Okay. *calls friends

Hanna and Emily: Sup

Spencer: Toby is A.

All three girls: WUT NO WAY

Spencer: Boo hoo.

Aria: Oh, poor Spencer.

Spencer: Life sucks.

Girls: Well Spencer, we better go home now.

Spencer: K, buy.

Emily: Tralalalala *walks down street

Toby: I AM INSANE VEHICLE MAN

Emily: :O

*Toby smashes into Emily

Emily: Oh no, I is in coma!

Police guy: HOLY CRAP A COMA PERSON

Ambulances: *blare sirens and show up

Spencer, Aria, and Hanna: Oh look, a text!

Text: Hey guys, looks like there's some real trAffic on such and such street... Mwahahaha! Bitches! ~A

Spencer, Aria, and Hanna: OMG that must mean something bad.

*drive to such and such street

Emily: *is still in coma

Spencer, Aria, and Hanna: HOLY CRAP! EMILY! NOOOO!

Spencer's phone: *ding

Spencer: Ooh, a text. Ominous.

Text: Hope you're proud of yourself, Spencer.

Spencer: NOOOOOOO! MONAAAA! I WILL DEVOUR YOU WHOLE!!!

*wolf howl

*morphs into silver wolf

Aria: *turns into Artemis *turns towards Spencer and mounts

Artemis: RIDE FORTH, MY NOBLE BAT-EATING STEED.

Hanna: HOLY CRAP! ARTEMIS!

Spencer: HAWOOOOOOOO!

*leaps away into the night

Hanna: HOLY CRAP

Emily: BLEH I AM DYING AND CRAP.

The second possibility is that Emily found out something new by herself, that the other three girls didn't know yet. Like when Hanna found out that Mona was A and then got hit by a car. My theory for this is that when Emily broke into the Halloween store and hacked the security cameras and records and stuff, she figured out a new A and then A was like CRAP and Mona or Toby or someone else hit her with a car to stop her from telling people.

The third possibility is that Emily was about to tell authorities something that the girls already knew. This probably wouldn't even be related to A. It might be about Wilden getting Ali pregnant, or Cece being on the boat and possibly with Ali the night she died or something else like that. Then Wilden (or Cece) would be like CRAP and hit her with the car.

The fourth possibility is that Emily would see Blonde Red Cloak person and have a flashback to reveal everything that happened to her the night Ali's grave was dug up. Then Blonde Red Cloak person ordered her to be killed! The thing is, I don't know how A would find out that she'd had the flashback. She wouldn't just be like "OMG! I JUST HAD A FLASHBACK ABOUT THE NIGHT ALI'S GRAVE WAS DUG UP AND I REMEMBER EVERYTHING NOW!!!"

14-15 seconds: "Some secrets are used to hurt!" says narrator dude. Spencer is being gassed in her shower. Or something. I don't really understand what is going on here. How do you gas someone in the shower? Especially just at your house? It looks like there's more than a shower going on. The whole shower chamber is filled with thick steam stuff. Maybe the water suddenly shot out boiling hot and burned Spencer? She screams and pounds at the door, collapsing.

There's a shot of steam stuff spurting out of this jet thing between knobs, so I guess something is happening... I just don't understand how it's possible.

The other, lame explanation for this, which seems pretty unlikely, is as follows:

Spencer: Sigh... Here I am, taking a shower and thinking about how Toby never loved me and life sucks and stuff.

*showers

Spencer: Hmm, I guess I should get out of the shower now... even though life sucks. Sigh.

*pulls handle

*handle is a little stuck.

Spencer: GAAAH LIFE HATES ME WHY IS LIFE SO HORRIBLE AAAAAH!!!!

*collapses

Anyways, I'm looking forwards to that scene. Seems dramatic!

16 seconds: Aria is in Ezra's apartment. With Ezra, because we know that he's back now.

16.5-17 seconds: Emily is sneaking into the costume shop's computer records, whether or not that was the time we see her coming through the door earlier in the promo. If you pause it, you can see that the screen has a list of stock, and then next to it are these buttons that read:

- Transactions

- Storage

- Stock Items 

- Sale Items

- Returns

- Customers

- Shipping

- Online

Really makes it seem likely that she finds something on A that's being hit-by-car worthy. Would A hit her if she just found out that heart-costume was Toby? I mean, Spencer already knew that, and they didn't hit her with the car. So if this is the reason, it's something besides Toby, which means that the heart costume person was somebody besides Toby and Mona. I really thought it was Toby in the hearts costume though, so maybe this isn't the cause.

17.5 seconds: Glimpse of Hanna at her computer with headphones, listening to music or something. Then there are the four girls standing somewhere all looking at someone. I don't know where they are exactly - maybe Aria's house? Or a coffee shop? Oh it is the coffee shop, because that clip must be from this scene, revealed in a teaser. Wilden comes into the coffee shop and Emily's like "We're closed" and he's like "You're here" and she's like "I have the keys." Here:

18 seconds: Spencer looks depressed. Aria bursts through a doorway, possibly to Spencer's bedroom (looks like it, I think), possibly to save Spencer from the Death Shower.

NOW, SOME SECRETS ARE BEING USED TO FIGHT BACK

19 seconds: Spencer, clammy and wet (possibly a result of Death Shower) is facing away from Aria in her kitchen.

Spencer: Can you call Hanna and Emily?
Aria: *looks shocked

Spencer: *turns around* I know who's been helping Mona.

DUN DUN DUUUUUUN

I am so glad that Spencer is telling the others now. It's about time.

Then it goes to the title thing and it's all "PRETTY LITTLE LIARS" and stuff.

So. Looking forwards to that. Here are the other teaser promo things:

- Emily follows Caleb to a cafe. He sits at a table, waiting for someone. Before Emily can see who, Hanna texts her about A and wants her to come.

- As Emily walks away, we see that he was about to meet with Paige. Paige says that she keeps wondering when the next bad thing will happen, but she realized that she's not afraid for her, she's afraid for Emily. She thinks Emily is too numb to the danger. Caleb shares her concern - they want to take A down.

- Toby shows up at Spencer's house to give her anniversary flowers. He sees the A key, and Spencer lies that it's a key to a storage unit at Melissa's work. She puts it in a drawer. Toby leaves.

- They find Aria unconscious at the bottom of the stairs. They try to shake her awake.

- Toby-as-A breaks into Spencer's house and tries to look for the A-key. Spencer confronts him, having figured out that he was evil when she saw his fake license as a doctor at the Radley Hospital where Mona had been kept.

- Spencer slaps Toby. Her mom calls, distracting her, and Toby runs away. Spencer cries.

- Hanna, Emily, and Aria are in Aria's basement. Aria's dad pulls up in the driveway, earlier than he was supposed to be home. Was he in on it, or had Meredith just called him?

- Meredith tells Byron that Aria and her friends have proof of the blackmail. Byron knocks on the basement door. Hanna and Emily pick up pokers as potential weapons.

What January Holds

I thought of making a post where I list all the things that I'm looking forwards too this coming January, since in shallow Teensplop world, there are quite a lot of them. Here they are!


I AM ANTICIPATING:

- SNSD's I Got a Boy Korean comeback!!! 
     This is their first Korean comeback since The Boys, which was released October 19, 2011. That is over a year ago, so it's about time! Not that they haven't been busy, of course. Since then, they've been busy with a subgroup as well as at least three Japanese singles and they've each had their individual acting careers and endorsements.
     The album and MV will be released January 1st (tomorrow). There will be a dance version and a story version to the title track. As you know, the album will be released in ten different infuriating versions. Here's how I would prioritize them, if I were in a position to buy any at all:

- Group Edition

- Tiffany

- Seohyun

- Taeyeon

- Yuri

- Jessica

    I actually kind of want Yuri's and Jessica's more than Taeyeon's, just because they are better suited to this concept, I think. But I will remain loyal! It's weird though, because I have a feeling that Jessica's will turn out as one of the bests picture-wise. I definitely don't want Sunny's because it would have that horrible picture of her on the front. Blech.
     Anyways, it's gonna be SO AMAZINGLY AMAZING!!!

- SNSD's I Got a Boy comeback show
       There's a teaser for this show on allkpop, which they've already filmed, and will air on January 3rd. It seems like a work of rather epic proportions, probably including all sorts of non-album solo acts (possibly in English???) I can't wait to watch.

                OMG.... Seohyun.... you've got a GUITAR!!!

- Pretty Little Liars Third Season resumes with episode 14

                After three unbearable months of Not-Pretty Little Liars, PLL is back! Mona is being released from the asylum and the girls are freaked out and everyone thinks she's psycho, etc., plus Toby is an evil creepy maniac and Spencer doesn't know, as demonstrated in the creepy hot tub sneak peak.

                                   

                  Plus Garett is dead, after telling Spencer that Aria's dad was with Ali the night she died - as far as we know, the last person to talk to her. Nate is still dead, which is probably troubling. Lucas is still disturbed. Mona, as we know, is still a CRAZY PSYCHO PERSON!!! Airing January 8th.

- Ali's Pretty Little Lies shall be published

                  The same day the television series is revived, Sara Shepard returns to the tabel (only a month after the release of Burned) with Ali's Little Lies, the first book from Ali's point of view, as well as the only current one with ALI ON THE FREAKING FRONT COVER!!!

                  AAAAAAAAH!!!

                  I seriously cannot express with words how freaking exciting this Ali doll is to me, but I shall try to sum it up with THE ALI DOLL IS PRETTY FREAKING EXCITING.

OMG, this is like the perfect Ali doll.

                 I don't know who will be modeling on the back cover, but I'm really hoping it will be Sasha Pieterse. For those of you who don't know (ha), Sasha plays Ali on the TV show. Honestly, I think it would be totally awesome. Sasha is a pretty good Ali appearance-wise, and it would just be so cool.

                 I haven't really been that pleased with the models for the other books. Emily is okay-ish... unless it turns out that the Spencer person is supposed to be Emily, in which case NO. Aria is a pretty good match, except she has this deep scowl all the time, which is a bit silly.

                 Anyways, please please pleas be Sasha. Or someone else, if you want to. Just look like Ali!

                OMG, what if there's more pictures or inside stuff on Amazon? Only eight days before??? I MUST GO CHECK!!! Sigh, no. Well, I'm really looking forwards to that. It's unlikely that I'll get it when it only comes out four days before my birthday... maybe I could ask for it from Clarissa or someone. Friends are generally pretty last minute anyways.

                So yeah.

- My Birthday

                   Fun. Unless I have a party. Then not as fun. But still. Fun. Yummy food. Cake, or something. Presents. Yay. Lookin' forwards to THAT. :)

             
 That's all that I know the dates for, but there are a lot of comebacks that are supposed to happen at the beginning of the year. T-ara's comeback promoting new Dani, Sistar19's return, a bunch of other groups that I don't especially care about... but I'll let you know!

Anyways, that's it for now.  Happy New Year, self-audience! Have fun in Mexico! Get lots of sleep tonight!
