Spencer, Hanna, Emily, and Ava walked into the classroom with Ava closing the door behind them. "How many gold stick variations are there" Hanna asked.

"Thirty-two" Ava said. "They'll never miss us" Spencer said.

"Aria still isn't answering" Emily said after trying to call her only for her to not pick up.

"What are you gonna say if we get her isn't it funny how your old boyfriend turned out to be a stalking whack job" Hanna asked.

"Well, I'd like to know a lot more before I talk to her" Emily said. "And hopefully she won't think we're insane nut jobs" Ava said. "You and Ava take that side of the desk" Spencer told Emily.

"You take the file cabinet" Spencer told Hanna. "And what are we looking for" Ava asked.

"Evidence we're gonna need a lot more of it if we're going to prove to Aria that Ezra's" Spencer said and stuttered.

"Not who he says he is" Spencer said. "That he's A" Emily said. "How are we going to convince Aria if we can't even say it out loud" Hanna asked as they continued to look for evidence.

"If I was a teacher and my students only got me coffee mugs, I would so start flunking people" Hanna said.

"I so see that" Ava told Hanna who smiled at her. "Tell me that's not what it looks like" Emily said seeing Spencer pull out a journal from a package.

"Ali's journal" Hanna said as she, Emily, and Ava made their way to Spencer. "We better get out of here" Ava said and they left the classroom. "So that was Ezra at the cabin" Emily asked.

"We always knew there were two of them" Spencer said. "Ezra and Shana" Hanna said.

"Ezra and somebody" Spencer said. Suddenly they heard a noise and Spencer motioned to hide which they did.

"Mona" Ava whispered confused seeing her walk in the classroom. "What is Mina doing here" Emily asked. "I don't know" Spencer said. "Is she looking for the book" Hanna asked.

"How would we know" Ava asked Hanna. "Quiet" Spencer told them.

Mona walked out of the classroom having a handful of files and closed the door. "Wait why is Mona stealing papers from Ezra" Hanna asked.

"Maybe she's not stealing them" Ava said. "Maybe she's delivering them" Emily said.

"Shouldn't we do this in your room" Hanna asked Spencer. "My parents are out of town being lawyers" Spencer said.

"Sounds romantic" Emily said. "Yeah, one's in Chicago the other. one's in Boston" Spencer said. "I don't think there are any pages missing" Spencer said referring to the journal.

"Are you getting sick maybe a cold" Ava asked Spencer worried. "Allergies" Spencer told her.

"What about the phone number and email addresses I found with the money" Emily asked.

"Well, I have a reverse directory for that phone number, and we can send emails to those addresses, but I think we should do it from someplace that can't be traced" Spencer said.

"What do we know about Shana" Spencer asked. "That she's missing" Emily said. "No, I mean really what do we know" Spencer asked.

"She was with Paige" Hanna said. "Okay maybe we shouldn't go there" Ava said and Emily gave her a grateful smile.

"I'm just saying we don't have a lot of details about that" Hanna said and Emily gave her a look. "Not those, kind of details I mean" Hanna said.

"Did Shana ever mention anything about Georgia something that connects with where Ali's hiding" Hanna asked.

"I thought you didn't want us looking for Ali" Emily said.

"I think A changed the rules on that" Spencer said. "Well, I'm in the same place Emily is I mean I'm more, angry than I am scared" Hanna said.

"Well, I'm more scared" Ava said. "So, what do you want me to do interrogate my girlfriend about her summer fling" Emily asked. "Basically" Hanna said.

"Isn't there some sort of Mona - Fitz connection we should be worrying about" Emily asked.

"I cannot worry about anything else my brain is full" Hanna said. "So is mine" Spencer said.

"Diddo" Ava said. "We'll tag up on this later Aria should be back by then" Spencer said and they went to leave but stopped as Ava saw the look on Emily's face.

"Em what is it" Ava asked. "Did it ever occur to you guys that we found that book awfully easy" Emily asked.

"What are you thinking" Spencer asked. "I'm thinking what if it wasn't A who put that book in the desk" Emily said. "Em get real this is all about the A ness of things yeah" Hanna said.

"A ness of things" Ava questioned Hanna. "I would have not said it like that, but Hanna's right" Spencer said.

"I love when you say that" Hanna said. "Anybody, want food" Ava asked leaving as they followed her.

>>>

"You think Aria is still seeing Mr. Fitz" Mike said to Ava who was buttoning her shirt. "Look I know it sounds crazy but she's just I don't know acting different" Ava said.

"So, you think she has a secret boyfriend" Mike asked. "Wouldn't be the first time" Ava said.

"Besides the first time we had sex was in secret can never be too sure" Ava said.

"Okay you got me there" Mike said as Ava laughed and kissed her cheek before leaving the room.

"We were supposed to find it" Spencer said after she met back up with Ava, Emily, and Hanna.

"But why give the book back after going through all that trouble to steal it" Emily asked. "Because now it's a Trojan horse look" Spencer said and shown them. "There are changes" Spencer said.

"What changes" Ava asked. "Little changes that have to add up like here it says I can't stop thinking of Ambrose Pierson but in the picture, I took in the car it says I can't stop thinking of Ambrose Pavilion" Spencer said.

"What's Ambrose Pavilion" Hanna asked. "I'd like to know too" Ava said.

"I don't know but it was a big enough clue that whoever stole this book wanted to make sure we never saw it in fact that we saw something else" Spencer said.

"Are all the changes like that" Hanna asked. "Yeah, so far January becomes March a cute girl becomes a cute guy" Spencer said.

"And A thinks we won't notice because we'll think we're so smart for getting it back" Emily said.

"But A doesn't know Spence has the original pages on her phone" Ava said. "So, we have our edge back" Spencer said.

"Wait so you're saying that Ezra left that book for us to find" Hanna asked. "Which means he knows we know" Emily said.

"We have to tell Aria" Ava said. "She's still not answering" Emily said. "Well then we'll sit on her porch till she comes back from Albany" Hanna said leaving.

"Syracuse" Spencer said following Hanna with Emily. "If she's even there" Ava mumbled following them. "Wait" Emily said stopping Hanna.

"Just let me try calling her one more time before we wake up the whole house" Emily said.

"I could just call Mike too" Ava said. "Guys" Hanna said looking inside the window.

Emily hung up the phone going to Hanna with Ava and Spencer, and they all saw Aria with Ezra. Suddenly they saw Aria kiss Ezra. "I knew it" Ava said.
