"That's what you got from Ali's claim ticket" Emily asked seeing a red coat. "A red coat" Ava asked. "That's what they gave me" Spencer said.

"So basically, you picked up her dry cleaning" Emily said. "I just can't ever picture Alison wearing this" Aria said. "Well picture Vivian Darkbloom" Spencer said.

"So now we're saying this Vivian dark person had her own wardrobe too" Emily asked. "Well, it makes sense if you don't want anyone catching on who you really are" Ava said.

"This is so weird" Emily said. "Can I touch it" Aria asked. "What do you think it's going to do snap at you" Ava asked.

"Yeah, it's a raincoat Aria it's not a mummy" Spencer said. "Where's Hanna" Spencer asked.

"She and her mom had to meet with Tamborelli before school" Emily said and Aria picked up the coat. "That's today poor Han" Ava said.

"Yeah, Kate's mom printed off that naked picture and she's threatening to sue she wants blood" Aria said.

"Hanna's" Emily said. "Yeah, probably mine too I'm the one who told her Kate used to be called boil n' baggies" Spencer said. "Who told A" Emily asked.

"Who tells A anything" Spencer asked. "That plan was probably in motion the moment Kate walked into school" Spencer said.

"Guys check it out" Aria said. "What is that" Spencer asked as they saw Aria with a piece of paper.

"It's a phone number" Aria said. "Whose" Spencer asked. "Uh there's no name" Aria said.

"Let's call it" Spencer said. "Okay stop now I feel like we're in a bad place" Emily said. "Em it's all gonna be okay" Ava said. "We're in my living room Emily we are holding a coat" Spencer said.

"Yeah, that belongs to someone who's no longer alive" Emily said. "Em how can we not call this" Aria asked.

"Okay whoever this is may have some answers" Aria said. "Like why on earth did Alison need to be the Vivian person" Aria asked. "Yeah, and who was Vivian meeting and why" Spencer asked.

"Em they have a point it could bring us closer to figuring out who killed her" Ava said.

"You think we're gonna find that out from a number in a pocket" Emily asked.

"Yeah, it's probably easier than hiring the fat lady with the tube top at the farmer's market who's gonna tell you your fortune but if you're too scared" Spencer said.

"I'm not scared" Emily said and dialed the number before putting it to her ear.

"Yeah, I don't know about our fortunes but that lady with the tube top makes really good apple butter" Aria said.

"Hello kay what if we know this person, what am I supposed to say" Emily asked. "It went to voicemail" Emily said. "Man or woman" Spencer asked.

"It's a computer" Emily said. "Give it to me" Aria said putting the coat down. "What are you gonna say" Ava asked.

"You can't just out and say hey we found your number in our dead best friend's coat" Ava said.

Aria took the phone from Emily before putting it to her ear.

"Hi um this is a friend of Vivian's can you just give me a call back on this number today it's really important thanks" Aria said before hanging up. "Now we just wait" Ava said.

Ava was at her locker when Mike saw her and went to her. "Hey Avs" Mike said before kissing her cheek.

"Hey" Ava said to him. "I got you something" Mike said. "What you didn't have to get me anything" Ava said.

"I know but I wanted to" Mike said and gave her a bouquet of roses. "Roses my favorite" Ava said and Mike smiled. "I love them" Ava said and put them in her locker.

Ava quickly gave Mike a kiss on the cheek. "I thought you'd like them" Mike said.

"Well thanks" Ava said. "And there's more where that come from cause while I'm your boyfriend I'm never going to stop spoiling you" Mike said and Ava smiled.

"You don't have to" Ava said. "I just told you I wanted to okay I'm doing this because I love you and you deserve to be spoiled" Mike said.

"I love you too and in that case thanks" Ava said and gave him a kiss.

"I have to find the girls before class I'll catch up with you later" Ava said and left.

"Wait they still think you sent that picture" Aria asked. "Yep" Hanna said. "At least you weren't suspended Han this is gonna blow over" Spencer said.

"Still would've been nice if they believed her" Ava said and Hanna smiled at her before going back to Spencer and Aria.

"Yeah, until A gets hungry again and takes a bite out of my behind" Hanna said.

"Hanna" Aria said. "No, we thought we had all the power because we had A's phone well guess what now A's using our phones against us" Hanna said and left.

Ava saw everyone staring at her and couldn't take it anymore.

"Hey losers I know she's amazing but quit staring and take a picture it will last longer, or do I need to send some of y'all to the emergency room" Ava asked and everyone quit staring.

"Thank you" Ava said sighing leaving with Aria Emily and Spencer. "Guess it could have been a lot worse right" Aria said.

"Tamborelli's a jerk hit the wall with him last week" Emily said. "Wait is he the one who's keeping you off the swim team" Spencer asked.

"Totally he's got some major sponsor on the hook and doesn't want anyone in the pool who might tarnish the team's image" Emily said. "What" Aria said. "Well, that's lame" Ava told Emily.

"God talk about bullies" Aria said. "And I thought middle school was bad" Ava said.

"How much longer are we gonna have to pay for picking up that stupid shovel" Emily asked, and the girls went their separate ways.

Ava was walking in the hall when she saw Jason. Jason saw Ava and went to him. "Ava hey" Jason said. "Hey what are you doing here" Ava asked.

"Can't a guy see his daughter" Jason asked. "You know what I mean" Ava said.  "I dropped off some old forms kids that I counseled after school" Jason said.

"Oh, right that" Ava said. "Did you do okay at the house while I was in Georgia" Jason asked.

"Yeah of course you don't have to worry about me" Ava said. "Of course, I do I'm your dad I'm going to worry no matter what you say" Jason said and Ava smiled.

"Okay" Ava told him. "Why we're you in Georgia anyways" Ava asked.

"We're still trying to fix up my grandmother's house your great grandmother" Jason said before he noticed Spencer.

"Hey, I need to talk to Spencer, but I'll see you at home" Jason said and left.

>>>

Mona saw Ava and went to her. "Hey, did I see Jason earlier" Mona asked. "Yeah, he had to drop off some old  forms from kids that he counseled after school" Ava said.

"Oh" Mona said. "We still on for tomorrow night" Mona asked. "Of course," Ava told her. "I'll be over as soon as I can" Ava said.

"Great see you then" Mona said. "See you" Ava said and Mona left. Ava smiled at her grabbed her books and headed off to class.

Spencer went over to Emily, Ava, Hanna and Aria. "You guys Tamborelli's telling kids to turn off their cell phones otherwise he's gonna have to confiscate them" Spencer said.

"They can't do that can they" Emily asked. "Those are the rules turn off the digital spigot or they will" Spencer said.

"Geez relax mom we're doing it" Ava said and Spencer glared at Ava. "Wait what's a spigot" Hanna asked. "its" Spencer said going to explain when Hanna stopped her.

"Never mind I really don't care" Hanna said. "Are there any messages from that number in Ali's coat" Spencer asked.

"No" Emily said. "We're still waiting" Ava added. "People please pick a line any line and it does not matter which one you will be given your ground assignments, and they will tell you where to go but please just pick a line" Ella said.

Aria and Ava walked into the classroom and saw Jenna. "Hey, did you know she was gonna be in this group" Caleb asked.

"No if I did, I would have given myself a fever this morning" Aria said. "I don't even live in the same house anymore not that she would have told me anyways" Ava said. 

Caleb, Ava, and Aria took their seats sitting next to each other.

Veronica and Jason walked in the classroom and Jason smiled at Ava before sitting down. "You've got to be kidding me" Aria said.

"What you know that guy" Caleb asked. "Yeah, it's Alison's brother" Aria said. "Also, my biological dad" Ava added. "I can't do this" Aria said getting up.

"I don't think you've got a choice" Caleb told her and Aria sat back down.

"Besides with everybody spilling their guts today some of us might have a lot to say I know I do" Caleb said. Aria's phone went off and everyone looked at her.

"Sorry I forgot to turn it off" Aria said and looked at the message.

Ava looked over and saw the message. "Truth hurts sweetie may hurt your new pal more than you" the message said.

>>>

"Feel free to write down anything you want it's anonymous" Veronica said handing out pens.

"Jenna if you need help I can" Veronica said. "No thank you I'll pass" Jenna said.

"Well, I'm sorry but that's not really an option if you'd prefer Jason he'll be back in a few minutes with the flashlights or if there's someone else you trust" Veronica said.

"I don't trust anyone around here" Jenna said. "Okay, well keep in mind that this day is about opening up to new possibilities and you'll be expected to" Veronica said.

"To what to forgive all the classmates who've mistreated me" Jenna asked.

"I'm not big on group hugs Mrs. Hastings I don't need a special flashlight to know what people around here are hiding the school's filled with phonies and liars they're everywhere" Jenna said. 

"In what way have you been mistreated" Veronica asked. "How much time have you got oh should I, should I start with the day that I was cornered in the girl's bathroom and smacked" Jenna asked. 

"Is she talking about Hanna" Caleb asked. "Who else would she be talking about" Ava asked.

"Did you ever report this" Veronica asked. "Well, she couldn't" Caleb said. "Wait Caleb" Aria said.

"No because if she had she would have to admit that she threw the first punch isn't that right Jenna" Caleb said.

"So just to clarify we are telling the whole truth today right not just the part we want to remember" Caleb asked.

"By the way this is Caleb speaking in case you were confused" Caleb told Jenna.

>>>

"Caleb went after her" Emily asked while they were with Aria at her locker.  "What did Jenna do" Emily asked and Aria closed her locker.

"Nothing yet" Aria told her and they started walking together. "Caleb thinks he knows who he's dealing with and if Hanna was worried about him before" Aria said.

"She should be even more worried now" Ava said. "Where is Hanna" Emily asked. "I don't know" Aria said. "No one called back" Emily said.

"What" Aria said. "The number from Ali's coat" Emily said and gone in the bathroom. "Oh that" Ava said and followed Emily along with Aria.

"Well, we should have said we were Vivian not her friend that message would have been returned" Aria said. "If I remember correctly, you're the one who said that you were a friend" Ava said.

"Call back say you're Vivian" Emily said offering the phone to Aria. "Well, I can't do it he knows my voice you do it" Aria said.

"Yeah, don't look at me it was your idea" Ava told Emily. "Me I don't even know what a Vivian sounds like" Emily said.

"A lot like Alison you know what give it to me I'll do it" Aria said and Emily gave her the phone.

Aria dialed the number before putting the phone to her ear. "Hello" a female voice said, and Aria looked at Emily and Ava.

"Hello" she said again, and Emily and Ava went over to Aria trying to listen as much as possible to what the female voice was saying.

"Uh hi, hi um I, I left a message yesterday I'm a friend of Vivian's" Aria said.

"Yeah, who gave you this number" the female voice asked. "No one here knows anyone named Vivian don't call here again" the female voice said and hung up.

"Oh, she totally got our message" Aria said. "Sounded a little mad if you ask me" Ava said.

"Or she's just tired of a stranger clogging up her voicemail maybe it is what it is just a number in a pocket" Emily said.

"Attention please will Emily Fields please report immediately to the vice principal's office" the PA system said. "What's going on" Aria asked. "Em what happened" Ava asked.

"Long story, catch up with you later" Emily said and left. Emily and Ava went to leave when Ava saw Holdon.

"I'll let you two talk" Ava said. Aria was confused but looked and saw Holden and nodded while Ava left.

Ava was with Emily and Aria eating when they say Hanna come over. "Hey, we tried texting you" Aria said. "Caleb has my phone" Hanna said.

"Are those salted" Hanna asked. "Please say yes" Hanna said and Emily have them to her. "Hanna just don't pay attention to her" Ava said seeing Hanna looking at Kate.

"Come on let's go somewhere else" Aria said. "No, I'm fine" Hanna said. "If you say so" Ava said.

"Your attention please after the dinner break all students must attend the film being screened in room 109 again room 109 at seven pm thank you" the PA system said.

"A film ugh it feels like middle school all over again" Ava said. "Wait why did Tamborelli call you down" Aria asked Emily.

"She has a birthmark" Hanna whispered to Ava, Aria, and Emily. "Okay" Aria said. "Em do you still have it that photo from the locker room" Hanna asked. "Yeah, I think so" Emily said.

"Why" Emily asked her. Hanna reached her hand out for her phone and Emily gave it to her.

"Han what's going on" Aria asked. "Why are you acting weird" Ava asked. "There wasn't a birthmark in that photo" Hanna said.

"Where is it" Hanna asked. "What" Emily said. "Look, look there's no birthmark" Hanna said showing them the photo. "It was photoshopped" Hanna said.

"You think she stuck her head on somebody else's body" Emily asked.

"Yes" Hanna said. "Why would A go through all that trouble to photoshop her body if she was trying to embarrass her why would she improve her" Aria asked.

"Yeah, it just doesn't make sense" Ava said. "What if it wasn't A who took that photo and sent it from my phone" Hanna asked.  "Well, who did" Emily asked and they all looked at Kate.

>>>

"If this is about an apology the damage has already been done" Kate said walking into the bathroom with Hanna.

"I didn't snap that picture of you Kate but i think I know who did" Hanna said. "Who" Kate asked.

"Let's just say I'm no stranger to the magic of photoshop I mean I spent all of ninth grade trimming my thighs" Hanna said. "Mm, and I care because" Kate asked.

"Because you know I'm starting to think that someone put your head on a much better body" Hanna said.

"Excuse me" Kate said. "Well for one your chest was definitely enhanced" Hanna said.

"Guess again Hanna some of us don't have to work as hard as you do" Kate said. "So, you didn't enhance you just erased the birthmark above your waist" Hanna said.

"I don't know what you're talking about" Kate said. "Yes, you do you know next time I'd be a little bit more careful when you're taking a sweater off in public" Hanna said.

"Why would you do that Kate why would you take a photo" Hanna asked.

"What was I supposed to do wait for your stuck up bff to download hideous pictures of me from riding camp" Kate asked.

"Like I couldn't see that coming" Kate said. "You know maybe it's time I really take a picture of you Kate" Hanna said.

"Aria, can I borrow your phone" Hanna asked and Emily, Aria, and Ava came out. "Yeah, in a minute I'm using it though to record this conversation" Aria said.

>>>

"My mom has got to hear this" Hanna said with Aria, Emily, and Ava following her. "Just when you thought Kate couldn't get worse, she does" Ava said.

"I can't believe Kate would send that out herself i mean that's psycho" Emily said.

"No, it's genius the first week of school she takes down Hanna and makes every girl pity her and makes every guy wanna pounce on her" Aria said.

"Okay not every guy Caleb wants to strangle her you need to tell him to stop" Hanna said.

"Oh, come on let him I'll join" Ava said. "Stop him from what" Emily asked. "From trying to crack my phone he still thinks Jenna did it you have to tell him to quit" Hanna said.

"But why me" Aria asked. "Because I won't" Ava said and Hanna glared at Ava.

"Because you're in the same group now go check the music room" Hanna said. "What if he's not in there" Aria asked.

"Well then check the rooftop look I don't want Jenna sniffing out what he's doing she's got eyes everywhere now go I have to find my mom" Hanna said.

Spencer went to Jason who had his earbuds in, and his eyes closed. She bent down to him, and Jason opened his eyes and saw Spencer. "Jason" Spencer said, and Jason took out his earbuds.

"I have to ask you something just hear me out please" Spencer said.

"Did you, are you back because, my dad is he your father too" Spencer asked. "Who told you" Jason asked.

"Ali a long time ago I just I didn't hear it until tonight" Spencer said. "Wait if you're my brother then that means Ava's my niece" Spencer said realizing.

"Wait one last question whose Ava's mother" Spencer asked.

"Someone I went to school with who gave her up the second I was out of sight we had Ava while we were still in high school" Jason said.

"So instead of giving her to you she gave Ava up for adoption" Spencer asked and Jason nodded. 

"She didn't even give me a chance just said she wanted rid of the disappointment as soon as possible a baby who means absolutely nothing to her a kid who would only make her life miserable well at least that's what it said in the note I found" Jason said.

"Spence" Emily said waking up. "What time is it" Emily asked and Spencer looked down.

Emily went to look when she saw she had 6 missed calls. "Oh my god I got like six missed calls from that number" Emily said.

"What are you talking about" Ava asked waking up. "What's going on what number" Aria asked waking up. ""Where am I" Hanna asked waking up. "The number in Ali's raincoat" Emily said.

"Who's calling now" Aria asked sitting up. "The same number" Emily said, and Hanna and Ava sat up.

"Do I answer it" Emily asked. "Yes, answer it" Aria said and the girls surrounded Emily.

"Hurry before they hang up" Ava said. "Hello" Emily said. "Is this Vivian's friend" a male voice asked. "Yes, yes, it is" Emily said. "What do you want" the male voice asked.

I was calling because we um I had a few questions" Emily said.

"Yeah, I have a few myself but I don't want to do this on the phone" the male voice said. "Will you meet me" he asked. "Yes, I will" Emily said after a moment.
