We're back with an exciting couple of episodes and Brenton is still trying to cope with the revelations. We discuss shifting character motivations, Nate's giant red flags and unadvised trips to a cabin, poor poor Paige, Caleb buying a gun, having fun in computer lab, Aria getting way too involved with Maggie and the expansion of the A Team.
Episode 31 content warnings: bullying, stalking, violence, homophobia

We get big time reveals this week! We cheer for the intricate plan laid out here and the rare plot focus on Mike. We also try to parse what exactly is going on with Talia, Toby's continued policing, church gossip and the show pulling Andrew off the bench.

We're really only two episodes away from the end of the season? It seems fairly mystery light so far so we'll see what happens. There is still other things to discuss like Fitz definitely not writing a book about Aria, Ashley living in the past, Mike being the least favorite child, and heavy topics around Spoby's past, Mona working for a republican campaign, and why it's right to leak info and attack a pro life candidate.
Episode 86 content warnings: abortion, pro life ideology, misogyny, murder, abuse, gaslighting, disability

Bad dads all around and toxic masculinity abound (except you Keith). We discuss how poorly this episode's depiction of black people has aged, the Romeo & Juliet of the rap industry, High School Musical, and why we love (and are in love) with Logan. Also Yolanda, you can't just go around kissing other people's boyfriends.

This episode covers chapters 17-end of the book.
We've finished the first book and find ourselves surprised by how interesting Emily is compared to the adaptation. We discuss each of the characters arcs and how some of them are underserved. We run through the open ending and minimal plot of the first book and our expectations for the next one.
Next reading: Chapters 1-18.

In an extremely exciting week an Neptune, we're left scratching our head at the Logan - Parker scenario. Why didn't Mac step in? And how did Logan know Veronica was in jail? We also bid farewell to a longstanding character and wonder why their exit wasn't more impactful.

Ravenswood continues to increasingly focus on shipping Miranda and Caleb much to our chagrin. Why do that when you have Olivanda right there! We discuss how the existence of PLL makes this romance irritating, Luke being an even worse boyfriend, and creepy children hauntings. We do find some positives in the attack scarecrow, lucid dreaming and getting the boys together to do some magick.
