They had got Caleb to come over when they got home so he got help them unlock the phone, but before he had been able to download many files, A had stopped the phone, meaning that they couldn't get anymore. He promised that he would tried to look into the files, but they were probably corrupted, so he wasn't that hopeful.
"Lucas! Hey, Lucas!" Kara shouted as she saw Lucas walk past her the next day.
"Have you gone deaf overnight or something?" Kara questioned, as she ran up to him.
"Oh, I-I didn't see you…" Lucas trailed off.
"Sure you didn't…so are you going to the surprise party that Hanna's throwing for Caleb's birthday?" Kara inquired.
"Yep" Lucas replied, bluntly.
"You're acting kind of weird, is something wrong?" Kara asked.
"No, everything's fine" Lucas said, a little too quickly.
"Hey Kara, what's up?" Mona questioned, walking up to them both.
"Um nothing much, so you're coming right?" Kara asked Lucas, who was already backing away.
"Yeah" He stated.
"I guess I'll see you there then" Kara suggested.
"Sure" Lucas told her, and quickly walked the other way.
"Is he going to what?" Mona questioned.
"Oh, Hanna's throwing Caleb a surprise party for his birthday" Kara told her.
"Why haven't I been invited?" Mona said, obviously upset.
"You haven't? Hanna's probably been stressed and forgot to tell you" Kara exclaimed.
"I guess…" Mona trailed off.
"Well if she doesn't invite you, you can be my plus one" Kara grinned.
"Thanks" Mona replied, with a small smile.
Later, Caleb informed them that he had been able to get one of the files from the phone. It was a picture of 5 dolls in a room. They knew that Caleb was becoming suspicious so they quickly left so Hanna would be able to explain things to him. Hanna had later texted Kara to ask for help with Caleb's birthday presents, which Kara happily accepted.
"Hanna...This is more important than a perfect bow" Spencer stated.
Emily and Spencer had come rushing into Hanna's bedroom where she and Kara were wrapping up Caleb's presents and told them that they found out that Lucas was A's helper.
"Just listen to us. We both heard the voice. It was definitely Lucas on the other end" Spencer continued.
"No, you both heard what you wanted to hear" Hanna exclaimed.
"Hanna's right guys, it's not Lucas" Kara insisted.
"Lucas may be able to get his hands on illegal firecrackers, but that doesn't mean he's "A's" evil elf" Hanna explained.
"Hanna, you don't know that, okay? Lucas hated Alison just as much as Jenna did. She could have easily recruited him" Emily informed them.
"It wouldn't take a whole lot of persuasion" Spencer stated.
"No. He has been an incredible friend to me. He brought Caleb back to town. He's now helping me throw this party" Hanna told them.
"So he can play you. So he can gain your trust. I mean, for all we know, he still sees Alison whenever he looks at us" Spencer announced.
"No, he's over that" Hanna retorted.
"And besides I was his friend before all this, I backed him up when Alison would have a go at him" Kara explained.
"Okay, well, maybe "A" is pressuring Lucas just like "A" did with us. I mean, if "A" has something on him-" Emily was cut off by Hanna.
"Did you record this conversation? Do you have any other proof?" Hanna questioned.
"No, of course not" Emily mumbled.
"Well, then, drop it" Hanna stated.
"Hanna! It was Lucas that was in the greenhouse. That's who dropped the phone. That's who you hit with your car" Spencer insisted.
"Really? Did you see bruises through the telephone too? Lucas has had my back for a long time, okay? He may have had an axe to grind with Alison, but which one of us didn't?" Hanna announced.
"Hanna…" Emily trailed off.
"No. Just leave it alone. He's too easy of a target" Hanna told them.
"Yeah, and I'm getting really sick of you guys accusing all my friends of helping A" Kara exclaimed angrily, walking out the room.
Later at the party, Spencer was still insisting that Lucas was helping A, much to Kara's annoyance.
"Ugh, Spencer would you just drop it?" Kara sighed, as Emily arrived.
"Finally! You're here! You have to come up to the attic with me" Spencer told her.
"Wait. I think I just made things worse with Lucas. I think he knows that I knew it was him on the phone" Emily explained.
"Okay, we've got to get him out of here. Will you please speak to Hanna? She's not listening to me" Spencer told her.
"Where is she? Kara?" Emily asked.
"I don't know" Kara replied.
"Mona. Hey. Have you seen Hanna? Do you know where she is?" Spencer inquired.
"Yeah, she and Lucas just went to set up the fireworks" Mona informed them, making Kara frown.
"What? Where?" Emily questioned.
"At the pier across the lake. They took the boat. Did they need permission?" Mona asked, as they ran to look out the window.
"Hold on a sec, how did you know that? You were over there with Noel the whole time?" Kara inquired.
"They told me earlier" Mona replied.
"But I was-" Kara was quickly cut off by Emily and Spencer.
"Kara, c'mon we've got to follow them!" Emily exclaimed.
"I can't see anything. Can you see anything?" Emily asked, as they ran to the lakeside.
"No, I can hear things, and that's enough. Hanna! Answer us!" Spencer retorted.
"But he can't…" Kara trailed off.
"Lucas is working for A, Kara! Just accept it!" Spencer exclaimed.
"Let's get in the car. They're probably at the pier" Emily suggested.
"No, Emily, it's a winding road. By the time that we get around-" Spencer was quickly cut off by Emily.
"Well, we have to do something, okay?" Emily told her.
"Hanna!" Emily screamed.
"Hanna, answer us!" Spencer insisted.
"I'm calling the police" Emily announced, getting her phone out.
"Go inside. Go!" Spencer informed her.
"Hanna! Hanna!" Spencer cried out.
"Hanna, please answer us" Kara shouted.
It was a little while later and a group had formed around Spencer and Kara, when Hanna finally showed, swimming towards them.
"Oh, my God! Han, what happened?" Spencer asked.
"I've got you" Kara said, as she helped Hanna out of the water.
"Hanna, come here. Are you okay? Where's Lucas?" Spencer inquired.
"Is he okay?" Kara insisted.
"Somebody get a blanket! Hurry!" Spencer called out.
"Is she okay?" Emily asked, as she ran over to them.
"She swam back!" Spencer replied.
"What's going on? Why is everybody out here?" Mona questioned, her and Noel were soaking wet.
"Where were you?" Spencer asked.
"We took a dip" Mona stated.
"What?" Emily asked.
"Nice night for it" Noel shrugged, as the pair walked away.
Kara frowned at that, it was strange that Mona would walk away when her best friend had just gone through something like that, and that she hadn't even asked if Hanna was okay.
"Hanna. What's going on?" Caleb inquired, coming into view.
"Surprise" Hanna mumbled, as the overturned boat came into view.
