The girls were sitting in the living room of the Hasting's manor, Aria and Valerie were slumped on the couch, rereading the letter A sent to their mom.
"A sent this letter to our mom." Aria mumbled, looking over the letter in one hand and holding a cup of coffee in the other.
"You know it's not your fault, right?" Emily reassured the sisters, "It's your dads mistake, totally."
"No, it is my fault." Valerie sighed, running her fingers through her hair.
"You did not hook up with her and then ask your kid to cover for you." Spencer told her.
"Ali said, we should've told our mom right after it happened." Aria said.
"Ali?" Emily questioned, "Alison knew?"
"Yeah, she was with us." Valerie told them.
"So, Alison saw this Meredith person?" Spencer asked.
"Meredith?" Hanna asked enthusiastically, "Her name's Meredith? Ew, that's not even a cute girl name. I'm seeing big pores and mousy roots." Valerie smiled slightly at her remark.
"Han," Spencer said, "I think it's a little too soon to joke." Spencer told her, sending the girls sympathetic looks.
"I'm sorry, but if you're gonna cheat you might as well do it with someone who deep-conditions her hair occasionally." Hanna remarked.
"Here," Spencer said, handing Hanna a bagel, "Put something in your mouth besides your foot."
Hanna turned to the girls, "I'm sorry. Okay?" She apologized, "Look, all I'm saying is that when my dad left, laughing sometimes helped, so did crying." Hanna explained.
"Our father hasn't left guys." Aria said frantically, "I mean this happened over a year ago."
The rest of the girls didn't say anything, "You really think he's gonna leave?" Valerie asked.
"Look, whatever happens, we're here for you guys." Emily assured them.
Valerie sighed and fiddled with her hands, "Thank you guys for staying here," Spencer said, changing the subject, "I couldn't of been here alone."
"When's your family getting back?" Hanna asked sympathetically.
"This afternoon." Spencer replied.
"Weren't you gonna clean off the mirror before they get here?" Aria asked.
Spencer looked around nervously, "Want me to come with you?" Valerie offered. Spencer nodded her head.
"We should all go," Aria said.
"Uh, yeah, you know what? It doesn't take all five of us to clean a mirror, so..." Hanna said, not wanting to go back up there.
"Why don't you four go and I'll just wait here." Hanna suggested.
"Fine, okay," Valerie said, "You just stay down here... alone. But make sure you lock the door." Valerie teased.
"Great, you spray, I'll wipe." Hanna said.
The girls all got up to go upstairs when Hanna's phone dinged, "Well, the creatures back," Hanna said, "We should've never unblocked our phones."
"EVER WONDER WHAT'S GOING ON WHEN YOUR BACK IS TURNED?" -A

"Open the attachment," Emily said. The video played out, it was the girls rushing up to Spencer's room looking at the message written on the mirror.
