Pretty Little Liars Recap: Party Foul 

I’ve been thinking… if this whole ‘local terrorist’ thing doesn’t pan out, Charles DiLaurentis could forge a pretty sweet fallback career as a party planner.

First Look: The Girls Are Dressed to Kill (Charles?) at Prom

Alison’s presumed-dead brother threw himself a hell of a birthday bash on Tuesday’s 

, complete with killer arcade games, an accidental drugging and a sting operation that had the girls waving their hands in the air like they just didn’t care. (Editor’s note: I suspect the girls did, in fact, care.)

Of course, the party might not have sucked so much if Ali hadn’t given Charles’ name to the Rosewood PD. Charlie had been very specific about coming alone — it was mentioned on the invitation, right next to “bring your own black hoodie” — and the brothers 

to be making a genuine, albeit shadowy, connection before the fuzz busted in. (I mean, at least Charles didn’t push Jason down an elevator shaft this time, right? That’s progress.)

OFFICER DOWN | But how could I possibly talk about Charles’ big day without highlighting the best part: Toby gobbling down one of Spencer’s brownies and getting stoned in the middle of the stand-off! I wasn’t sure where the writers were going with this at first; when Toby took the special snack from Spencer, I assumed he was going to confront her about her problem. But what transpired was 

more entertaining, even if it’s probably going to lead to yet another Spencer-Toby breakup. Verdict: Worth it.

OH, EMILY… | We got some good news and some bad news on the Sara front this week. First, the good: I applaud Sara’s decision to move out of Emily’s house and stay with her weird friend in whatever town she’s from. I say the more distance between them, the better. And that’s where the bad news comes in: Sara’s only moving out so she and Emily can start a real relationship — but unless I’m crazy, having a mutual kidnapper in common isn’t enough of a reason for two people to get together. Do I trust Sara? Yes: ___ No: _X_

WHAT THE FREDDIE? | The episode ended with Jason and Alison watching an old home video of themselves attending a second cousin’s birthday party — or at least they 

it was for a second cousin. It turns out “Freddie,” the birthday boy in question, was actually Charles, which explains why Jason and Ali remember not being allowed to tell their

dad about it. That’s right, folks, we’ve got 

at the same time is messing with my sense of the universe. Should we just assume he’s evil on 

* Congrats to Aria on making it to the finals in that photo competition. Girl, you deserve it.

Time for your take on this week’s (surprisingly hectic) episode: Are you glad Emily and Sara are staying together? Did you enjoy stoned Toby as much as I did? Drop all of your comments below.

Whomever Charles is, he must be male (I doubt he had a sex change…) and 15 months older than Jason. So, in a show with a large female cast list, that shouldn’t be too hard to nail down. Who are the only/most likely suspects?

Wren, Caleb, Ezra? Except Ezra would have to have a thing for his sister not just teenage girls. Caleb’s supposed to be younger, but he also moved to the school district when he was older.

Or maybe an undead Wilden or Ian since Charles should be a blonde per the movie.

Can’t say I’m sorry to see Sara move out.

They wouldn’t turn the main villain of this show into the protagonist of a spin off, so not Caleb. Ezra has his own family, which has been well chronicled and he’s already been a red herring once. Wren — who? I had to Wikia that name, heh. Seems like the least likely, doesn’t it?

Sorry, Michael, but Wren is actually my number one suspect. No one else would even make sense

Caleb would depend on if the writers had other plans if the spin off was successful. I don’t think Ezra is likely. I guess it couldn’t be Wilden or Ian as Allison had a relationship with both.

That would be like the lamest thing ever. Surely it must be an established character/member of the cast.

It would but then again the whole Charles thing is lame so make most sense. And the Charles character isn’t even fully established (he was only revealed last season) so doesn’t matter if they just cast someone new.

It sort of does. Plus, per PLL Wikia, it says that the actor who is Charles has been informed of that, meaning that it has to be someone from the established cast, as opposed to someone cast specifically to play the role.

“As of June 4th, 2015, the actor/actress that will be revealed to be Charles DiLaurentis has already been told by Marlene herself. Source”

@Michael Sacal (Can’t reply to yours) I really don’t know who it can be if it is someone from the “main” cast. Can’t be Wren, Lucas, Noel, Toby, Caleb, Ezra, Andrew, it can’t be any of the 4 girls, Mona, Paige, Maya, Sarah, Lesli. A few others I am sure to have missed but you get where I am going, all the established characters they have make no sense to become Charles. Even CeCe (I thought she was A for a long time) but she dated Jason and I don’t think PLL would go all Game of Thrones with incest.

Charles killed Jason and took his place. That’s why the role was played by two different actors :P

I still don’t think Charles is A. Maybe he’s working with A who I think is still Aria.

This show has grown so outlandish, I don’t believe for a second we’ll come “face to face with “A”” in three weeks.

I think we will, but based on the ending of this episode with the present Charles got and the note saying “Your friend and ally” – I am predicting this season Charles will get caught and sent to prison, the time jump will happen and that said ally will then start harassing the girls again. Which will lead to a Charles prison break (this seasons cliffhanger?) and it will come full circle with 7 more seasons of unanswered, drawn out and really outlandish storylines.

OH I was thinking it said your friend and ally like Allison… I was all sorts of confused.

I am yet to see how this is the “summer of answers” but am glad it is only 2 episodes till the Charles reveal. It’s been 6 years too long.

Also, I was surprised Ali was the smart one to tell the police about Charles. And how careless are the police paroling the girls to NOT notice ALL four of the girls leaving? Must be eating donuts or something.

Everybody and their brother who isn’t a deranged killer named Charles has an opinion on whom Emily should be with: Paige, Allison, yada-yada-yada!

Here’s a novel idea: Just go with the flow!

I mean… Where was Ezra during all this excitement tonight??

He’s busy picking out coordinating capris for his blouse from the last episode.

Apparently busy with Caleb who was also m.i.a.

We know that A has always been related to the DiLaurentis clan since both Ali and her mother were targets and Mother D was trying cover for him. The only question is which cast member we’ve seen before is actually that family member.

The girls are looking damn fine at prom! <3

Is nobody going to talk about how manipulative and selfish Emily is? I mean, she was finally making a connection with someone other than her, and she had to step in and stop it like a selfish pig. Not to mention that creepy pillow-sniffing at the end…

and Alison’s Arother Brother is Jason Ezra and Aria Have Relationship Together Emliy and Tila Hava Relationship Spencer and Toby Have Relationship Too

I always loved Emily with Paige. But if she’s not going to be with Paige then I actually gladly settle for Sara. Unpopular opinion, I know, but I like her.

We’ve been told Hannah’s scholarship comes from the Carissmi Group – and that is somehow connected to Radley and the Di Laurentis family. What does that mean about Aria being accepted to the Cardillo Arts Fellowship? Because honestly with a show focused on the letter A I’m thinking two girls’ futures funded by groups with the letter C is a red flag to me. Randomly the definition of cardillo is ITALIAN meaning “goldfinch” “possibly applied as a nickname for someone with a good singing voice or who wore colorful clothing”. Or could it be a nickname for a blond person – maybe someone called Allison Cardillo growing up? Especially if Carissimi in Latin means beloved – another nickname. We know A has access to tons of cash – is A funding Hannah and Aria’s futures?

Plus the Italian definition of Carissmi is the masculine version of “Dear” – a nickname or term of endearment.

OK…if Jason is a Hastings and Charles and Jason played together and they didn’t move there until after Charles was put in Radley then how did Mr Hastings and Mrs DiLaurentis meet and produce Jason???

Dat episode was mind blowing at d end i wanted to give jason n toby a hug!!

Could Jessica have been saying Wrenny not Freddie?

So, Sara is not Bethany. Her friend recognised her and they talked about old memories. There go all those theories.

Charles is probably Wren, eventhough it would be a huge dissapointment, he’s the only one who makes sence. I believe Mona knows it’s him but keeps playing dumb until she has proofe.

Charles hit Alison “that night” and the only question left is who hit Bethany and why Charles hates the 4 liars so much.

Back in Jan in an interview, Keegan Allen (Toby) said that “when everyone knows who it is … everyone will freak out … it’s so clear in every episode … when revealed, you could go back to season 1 and be like oh wow … whoa … brilliant.” So that says that it has to be a regular cast member.
