Wilden Conundrum

Episode Four

Alison wakes up to a damp rag on her forehead. "W-What happened?" She asks, her vision distorted by grogginess.

"Oh, nothing," her mother smiles, and a flashback shows Spencer being ran over by her car. "Just a little chaos."

Veronica sits beside her daughter's hospital bed and looks at the doctor on the other end of the stretcher.

"So, doc; is she going to survive past this?" She asks, flashing back on all the moments she supported her.

"At this moment, we do not know," the doctor explained, then pursed his lips in curiosity. "Did your... daughter have any enemies?" He adds.

"No, why?" Veronica responds, forehead crinkled, then she leans in to the bed, signifying her intrigue.

"M-Ma," Alison struggled, to which she nudged her back, placing yet another dampened cloth on her sweaty forehead. "M-Ma," she repeated, this time growing a little panicky. "I have something... I have something... I have something to tell you."

Her mother leans in to her daughter in an anticipatory manner then retracts her head in a manner so as to signify shock.

"It appears your daughter was ran over," the doctor explained, and Veronica looked at him expectantly. "Purposefully," he adds.

Veronica's expression turns from unsure to panicky in three seconds flat. "O-Oh," she gasps, and her daughter opens her eyes.

"I can't believe you didn't tell me this!" Jessica exclaimed, resisting fully the urge to punch her daughter in the face. "So that... that Gwen was no accident?"

"No, mom; she was looking for me," informed Ali. "That's why I told you, personally, not to do anything with her, but you didn't answer me."

"I wasn't the one wanting to help her!" Jessica flipped out, raising her voice higher than the ceiling.

Alison widened her eyes in panic and humiliation. "Please, ma. I know I made my mistakes. But I didn't ever want to help her."

"Yes, Ali, you did, but I'm going to let you sleep." Jessica raised the cover right below her head then kissed her on the forehead and left the room.

Someone is shown entering Rosewood in a green car with a disgruntled expression on her face. "Oh, so this is where she lives," exclaimed the individual.

"I don't know if she confessed to murdering anyone, but she sure did tell me something unexpected - so can you please help me?"

Jessica, satisfied with the response, hangs up the phone and enters the room where Alison was - only to see her daughter's bed vacant.

Veronica exits the hospital room and takes out her phone and dials 911. "I think I know who attempted to murder Spencer Hastings."

"Really? Who?" asked the dispatcher on the other end of the transceiver.

She smiles, then says "I know you want to know, but please promise me what I say will be held in the utmost of confidentiality, ma'am."

Jenna is shown dialing 911.

"Um, hello. My name is Jenna Marshall. Oh, yes," she smiles then says "I would like to report a suspected homicide" and turns around and looks at Shana with an expression of trust on her face.

The vacant burnt down house is shown being scoured by a man named Toby. Someone is shown spying on him. That person, too, adorns a red coat.
