Spencer's bed was crowded as the girls, minus Aria sat on it.

Hanna gasped, "Your sister's pregnant. How'd that happen?"

Spencer shrugged, "I figure pretty much the usual way."

"It's not really a "how" question, it's more of a "why" question", Avery mused.

"Well, I mean, I guess Melissa could have gone all maternal, but I doubt it."

"This is so creepy", Hanna huffed, "Where are they now?"

"Philadelphia. Shopping."

"What do you think this means?", Emily pondered out loud as she studied a bit of paper with some Braille on it.

"I don't know, but Toby wanted us to have it", Spencer looked up at Aria, who was sitting moodily on a chair near the window, "You want to see this, Aria?"

"No", Aria shook her head, "I can see just fine from here."

"Aria", Avery warned reprimandingly.

Spencer propped her laptop up on the bed, carefully cross-examining the paper in her hand and the letters displayed on the screen, "Okay. The first letter's a B, A-"

Emily interjected, "I think it's gonna tell us who A is."

"-D . B-A-D,"

"Bad?", Avery furrowed her eyebrows, "That's the whole message?"

"What's it supposed to mean?", Hanna frowned.

"It means you got punked", Aria snapped , "Toby doesn't trust us. I don't blame him." Avery shot a disapproving look at Aria.

"No, I don't think he'd mess with us like this", Emily shook her head.

Aria scoffed, "You'd be surprised what people are capable of." Avery rolled her eyes, fed up of Arias tantrums.

"You guys, we have to figure this out", Avery remarked, "This might be a joke, but it could be something real."

"Look, either way, Toby's not the enemy", Spencer pressed.

Aria got up from her place and huffed, "You know what, guys? I'm gonna go." She briskly walked out of the room, Avery trailing behind her, in an attempt to stop her.

"Aria, Avery shook her head, "You've been whining about how you want to make up with Hanna for the past three hours."

Aria ran her hand down her face, "I just feel so silly." Avery and Aria watched as Hanna gave Caleb something and walked towards their direction.

"Come on", Avery nudged Aria towards Hanna, "Go apologize ."

Aria slowly walked towards Hanna, her hands playing with the strap of her bag, "Hey."
