At first, I thought that this episode of Pretty Little Liars was going to be mostly filler.
But then, some crazy stuff started happening! I’ll list them in order of importance/shock value:
I was unsure what the Queen of Hearts represented (seen in Mona’s hand at the very end of the episode as she sings “In The Eye Abides The Heart” — quite beautifully, I might add). I have a feeling that all of those card games she mentioned in her conversation with Caleb have some meaning, but I’m not sure what that is right now.
I have always felt bad for Spencer. Her family is nuts. And not only does nobody include her in any decisions or discussions, but it’s as if she’s invisible unless they need her for something. I get so frustrated every time I see her trying to have a conversation with her mother or her sister, who obviously confide in each other and not in Spencer. When did Melissa lose the baby, and how? And, more importantly, what did Garrett have to do with it? Is he actually the father?
The girls seemed pretty thrilled to catch Jenna in her lie. However, they did exchange that “look” indicating that they did find her story to be believable. Emily had been really drunk that night, and I think the girls realized that Jenna was trying to show a little humanity, the way that Hanna did when she pulled her out of the fire in Season 2.
One more thing I noticed tonight: this episode was completely free of texts from “A.” (Unless you count the “anonymous student” who told on Ella. But for the most part, the girls were left alone.)

The Queen of Hearts was in Jennas hand.

It was? When?
In the ending when “A” is drinking the alcohol (right after Mona’s sings) the background music is the same melody that Aria was playing in her duet with Jenna. This melody is the sped up version of “In The Eye Abides The Heart” – which would show some corralation between Jenna and Mona possibly?
When “A” was drinking the alcohol in the end what came on my mind was vodka water. Go back to season 1 when wren ordered that drink when he was at the grill with spencer Melissa and their father. Hmmmm?!

Jaimelyn and Rachell — good noticing/remembering! I thought that the song was the same for all three scenes, but I couldn’t be sure. And I totally forgot about that detail with Wren ordering the vodka water…it’s crazy how this show throws in such minute details that eventually mean a lot.
Ah! Nice Rachell!! This is all so baffling. Is it Tuesday yet!?!?
wait who is wren?? you guys are talking about in season ?
Wren is the British doctor who was once engaged to Spencer’s sister.
