After Spencer's mega screw up, Mr. Fitz had gone to spend time with his illegitimate son, leaving Aria fretting over him not sending her any messages, using the other girls as interim advisers.
"Nothing?", Hanna stressed.
"Nothing since he left", Aria frowned, "Well, he sent an 'I got here' text."
"Well, that counts, I guess", Avery smiled awkwardly, "If you want it to."
"I mean, I know he's doing the right thing, it's just the idea that something's happening hundreds of miles away that's gonna change everything."
"This is cold", Spencer complained, getting up from her seat, and leaving, "I'm just gonna go get a refill."
"Do we you think Wilden read that notebook by now?", Emily bit her lip in anticipation.
"He must have", Hanna said.
"So he knows what we know", Avery huffed. She didn't trust him, not one bit.
"And what exactly do we know?", Aria shrugged, "It's just Cece's version of things."
"There was a picture of him in Cape May. I'm going back to the police station after school, take a snap of it on my phone."
"Hey how are things on the Ben front?", Aria posed the question to Avery, who shook her head desperately, "I still don't know who the hell that is. All I know is that the guy in both videos are the same. Don't know what I'm going to do with that. I don't think he's A."
"Hey, Jason", Emily called out, as she eyed Jason and Spencer walking upto their table.
Avery shot him a small smile, which Jason gladly returned, before clearing his throat, "I've got some news. We're keeping this kind of quiet, but they've released Ali's remains to my family. There's gonna be a re-interment."
"She's being buried again?", Hanna screeched.
"Not in the ground. In the mausoleum. There'll be a service, family only, but I've arranged for you guys to have some time after my parents leave."
"Thank you", the girls chirped in unison.
"There's something else. The things we put in the casket with Ali, they're still missing. The state police think whoever opened the grave is keeping them as some kind of sick souvenirs. The cops figure when they find those, they'll find the creeps who did this.", Jason paused to look at the girls who had gone white in the face, "Look, I just wanted you guys to hear it from me. I'll text you when I know the details about saying good-bye to Ali."
"Don't bother", Spencer sneered, "I've said all the good-byes I want to say."
"Spencer!", Aria exclaimed.
"What? She's Saint Ali now? Are her bones fully relics or something?"
"You need to dial it back", Avery warned Spencer, when she noticed the disconcert expression on Jason's face.
