After Take: PRETTY LITTLE LIARS “Welcome to the Dollhouse”

So CK had a day to reflect on the finale and what all went down – check out what she has to say about it:

TROIAN BELLISARIO, LUCY HALE, ASHLEY BENSON, SHAY MITCHELL

Guys, I’m at a loss. I’ve watched this episode 4 times now and I’m not getting any clearer.

SPOILERSSo all The Liars are now arrested…but wait! Now they’re kidnapped and being held in their own rooms…but wait! They aren’t in their own rooms, they are in replications of their own rooms and all together in a weird and wacky dollhouse containing…Mona dressed/pretending to be Ali.

Mona being alive isn’t a shock. Well, I guess it is because she did look pretty dead in that trunk. But nope! She’s a blonde now and has been held in that location long enough to know what each number of chimes means. When Mona got up and went to the game room because “4 chimes means Game Time” my skin nearly crawled off my body.

Luckily, because Mona has been there long enough to know how it all works; she’s also still Mona and has figured out the design flaws in A’s house. Not that it’s helped her much, but now that the other four Liars are bunked up there with her, she definitely has more of a chance to escape.

CAN WE ALL HAVE A MOMENT FOR WHEN THE HASTING PARENTS FINALLY ARE AWARE OF ALL THIS “A” NONSENSE??? WELCOME ABOARD PARENTS! It’s about time.

Here’s a problem I’m having. With the Hastings Parents confronting Alison; we are now supposed to take in that all the A stuff in the first and second season was Mona, but after that it’s someone new??? Ohhhh come on! I’m getting really irritated at this show introducing new characters as red herrings. And now we’ve got an “evil twin”? I just…I don’t know how much more I can take. Don’t think I missed when cutie-pie Andrew tapped into the cell phone call of Mama Hastings and Melissa…combine that with the “old Campbell Farm” connection and my disappointment at Aria’s dude choices are solidified. That girl just picks the wrong dudes. All the time.

I will say this, I loved Caleb being all “I’m getting to the bottom of this and you’re going to listen to me, Cop-Lady”.

And I loved the Prom Plot being hatched right in front of A’s watchful eye. It was a brilliant plan! And the resulting Spencer break in to the SanctuAry discovery of A/Charles being a DiLaurentis…and if it’s true that he’s Jason’s twin brother, then that means he’s Spencer’s half brother too!

It still begs the question: WHO THE FRICK IS CHARLES???
