It's been a year since Alison Dilaurentis mysteriously died, and since the girls got –A texts. Alison's birthday would have been a week away and the girls were really sad that they couldn't see her, she would have been six teen. After she died, Aria moved to Ireland because her parents thought it would have been better if they moved for her sake. Emily was in Dallas Texas because she spent some time with her dad who's in the military, and Spencer and Hanna stayed in Rosewood because their parents had jobs they wanted to keep. (Weeks later) The first day of school started and it was awkward seeing each other again! The girls haven't spoken to each other in a year but Hanna was the first to talk to one of the girl. She went and talked to Spencer and the first thing Spencer said was "Hi Hanna you look great! I see you lost some weight" she winked and Hanna laughed and responded "Yeah no more hefty Hanna" They laughed and Spencer smiled and walked away. The girls go into their class and all the four girls were in the same class and they looked at each other smiled then sat in their desks. When the bell rang the girls met up and talked in the hallway but suddenly all the girls phones ringed and the text was from –A saying "Awe haven't seen you girls in a while you're just making it easier for us to torture you pretty girls" xo –A. the girl then reunited again to find who texted them.
A couple days later Spencer got a 9-1-1 call saying they found some evidence to figure out who killed Alison, she started to cry and asked who might it be and the police said it could be Toby Cavanaugh. Spencer called her friends and asked them to come to her house. The girls arrived and Aria said "What's wrong?" Spencer looked at the girls and said "Toby Cavanaugh Emily's neighbor might of killed Alison, they have evidence". Emily denied it and was thinking how could he of done that he's always in his room taking care of his blind step-sister Jenna, then Emily remembered the night that Jenna got blind, she got blind because Alison put a stink bomb in her little garage but then a fire happened and she got blind. Hanna asked "what was the evidence"? Spencer said Toby's jacket was on her when she died and his blood was on it. The girls left and couldn't believe he did that, but Emily didn't believe it. When Emily went home she saw Toby on his front porch and she went and talked to him, she was a little scared but she still talked to him. She quietly walks up and says "Hi Toby" he looked at her and said "hello" she sat beside him and asked a couple questions "be honest Toby ... Did you kill her? He looked sad and yelled NO! I gave her my jacket because she came to see me and she was cold my blood was on it from my bike accident look at my bike" he points to his bike and she asked "why did she come to see you?" he said "I forget I think she got in a fight with someone" then she walked away and said thanks for the help.
The girls met up at school and Emily told the girls what happened when she talked to Toby, they denied it but they somehow believed Emily. When the bell rang Spencer was walking in the hallway and she saw an add to help Toby with Spanish lessons, she took the flyer because she needed answers. Once school was over Aria suggested that they should have a slumber party to become friends again, everybody was ok with it except Spencer because she had to help Toby but she lied and said she had a family dinner. During the slumber party Spencer drives to Toby's house, when she arrived he was crying when she got closer to him he looked at her and said "Spencer?" she didn't help him with his Spanish lessons because she wanted to know why he was crying. When she asked him what's wrong he said "people don't like me because they think I killed your little friend but I didn't" she looked in his pretty eyes and she kissed him she gasped and said "oh my god I'm so sorry I have to go" Toby got up and said "Spencer wait!" then she ran a block away sat down beside a tree and kept hitting her hand on her forehead and couldn't believe she kissed the possible killer her friend, and he ran to go find her he ran and ran and finally found her, he took a deep breath and sat down beside her and asked "why did you run away from me? I liked the kiss" she coughed and said "I ran away because it was a crazy thing to do because you killed my friend" he looked and said "I swear I didn't kill her ask me anything" then Spencer got a –A text saying "why are you with him? He's a nerd but he didn't kill me" –A she looked up and he kissed her and she let him kiss her. During the slumber party Hanna's phone ranged and it was a text from –A saying "that's cute having a sleepover aha but where's the brainy one? Well I'll tell you she was with Toby" –A. Hanna told the girls and they were so mad so they called her, then Spencer comes in Arias room. The girls asked Spencer why she was with him and she said she needed answers but he was so sad and his eyes were pretty.. So I kissed him and ran away then he kissed me and I let him. Then Spencer's phone rang and the text was from –A saying "don't lie you LOVE him"
