Previously on "Pretty Little Liars -
The Perfectionists"

Somebody left me a
box of cupcakes last night.

They used Nolan's ID card
to access my apartment.

- How would you know that?
- I stole Taylor's RV.

I wanted you to know
what I was using it for

so you know you could trust me.

When people wanna know who you are

if you're honest there
are no wrong answers.

I convinced myself that
I came here with a clean slate.

I think you moved on

you just never said it out loud.

I'm not the one who paired us..

- Forced.
- Together.

Since Nolan's death
I've been distracted.

There must be something
you'd do to relax.

- Music is the art of math.
- Well said, Amadeus.

If Professor James finds
out that I can't play

it could jeopardize my scholarship

It's a problem that I'm trying to fix.

I told you I don't wanna
be a part of your shortcut.

I worked on this all night.

You didn't have to include
my name on it, though.

Well, I wouldn't have solved
the puzzle without you.

- Chess is the art of math.
- Wait..

- You're Bad Bishop.
- You're 4Moves.

I did something really
bad that could get me

kicked out of the
school and Dana knows it.

You were right about Dana Booker.

She left me those cupcakes.

She's playing your game.

Then I'll win.

Let's take this bitch down.

So now that we know Dana is our A

we have to find out as
much about her as possible.

You wanna profile her.

I did a report on criminal
psychology last year

and in order to catch a psychopath

you wanna identify their personality

behavioral traits so you can
know what kind of psychopath

you're dealing with.

Thank you, Spencer.

- I'm Caitlin.
- Yeah, I know.

And we caught a break because

it's Staff and Faculty Appreciation Day.

Yeah, which is all about celebrating

and getting to know your
fellow staff members.

And you plan to get to know Dana.

Now, Dana has full
access to Beacon Guard

so keep all confidential conversations

out of public restrooms.

They're spying on us in the bathrooms?

How do you know that?

When you spend enough
time watching people

you know when you're being watched.

When they realized I figured it out

they brought me in and told
me to keep my mouth shut.

Until now, that's what I did.

The cameras are there to protect us

but let's not give Dana
anything to use against us.

She already has something on me.

I might've screwed up.

- You definitely screwed up.
- Definitely.

I submitted the cello piece
as my own to Professor James

and I think Dana knows about it.

- Oh, she knows about it.
- Definitely.

Why did you cheat?

That can't keep being
the answer for you, Dylan.

I know it was stupid, alright?
But I felt backed into a corner.

You just handed Dana another
huge chunk of leverage.

I know, but I-I physically
could not play. Okay?

We have a plan.

I'm gonna use Caitlin's
new friend Jeremy's computer

'cause it won't be
traceable back to BHU.

So, I'll hack into the portal
and I'll delete the file

before Professor James can see it.

You can do that?

- Yeah, of course.
- Nice.

Alright, well, you take care of that

and I will find out as much

about Dana as humanly possible.

It's not all bad news.

We have another player on our side.

Taylor.

So, now you think we can trust her?

I grew up with Taylor.

She loved her brother
more than anything.

And she's back because
she wants to find out

who killed Nolan.

We all do.

You know the drill.

Act normal, bitches

until we get what we
need to bring Dana down.

Are you done yet?

You know, asking me if I'm done

every 60 seconds is
actually slowing me down.

Slowing you down, as in,
like, it's not going to work?

Or it will eventually work?

- Or what's...
- Make him stop.

So, Dylan, if Ava deletes your upload

you're still getting an incomplete.

- "If?"
- When.

I will take an incomplete, I don't care

about an incomplete,
I'll double up on a class

next semester.

This is better than being expelled.

Hey, how well do you know
your new friend Jeremy?

Uh, why?

Well, I can access his browser

to remove the upload

but some of the files

on this hard drive are,
like, mega-encrypted.

Super lock-down.

It's pretty unusual
for a personal computer.

Maybe he was doing some
Hotchkiss work at home.

Well, if that was the
case he'd be required

to use Hotchkiss' encryption.

But this is like some next level

military grade security.

Do you know how to use it?

Enough to help you.

Because your file has officially been..

Un-uploaded.

Thank you so much.

I'd really love to know what
your friend does at Hotchkiss.

Yeah, me too.

Welcome to Faculty Appreciation Day.

Have fun getting to
know your colleagues.

Hi.

Did you miss me?

It has been quiet.

So welcome to my unofficial
I'm not dead party.

I've been in your shoes.

It's best to get all the
stares over with all at once.

How's it been with your mom?

She's been trying really hard.

She wants to take care
of me almost to a fault.

Claire won't leave my side.

That's why I haven't
been able to help you.

Have you been able to
find out anything else

about the investigation?
About Dana Booker?

My mother thinks I'm far too fragile

to talk about Nolan or Dana.

Dana is playing a dangerous game

that we all know too well.

But Mona has a plan.

She's gonna use this
afternoon's speed round game

to get inside Dana's head.

Speed round?

It's a Q and A

for faculty and staff.

Like, speed dating.

Mona's crafted a series of questions

that are designed to get a
baseline psych profile on Dana.

It'll start easy and get more personal.

You know, like the FBI does.

I get it, you cannot
defeat your enemies until...

Until you know who they
are. Anthony Horowitz.

I'm Mona. I stole your RV.

Allie told me.

I wasn't expecting
you to be so, so short.

You guys are gonna play nice, right?

Because we're on the same team now.

Nice to meet you.

Ms. DiLaurentis?

I'll be back.

You may be in the circle

but you'll never be in the circle.

_

_

- Hi.
- Hey.

Who killed your kitten?

I don't have a cat.

I found out a pairing got a 100 percent

on the puzzle project.

They set the curve so high,
the entire class is furious.

It was probably the twins.

I swear, they used mind tricks

to finish each other's sentences.

It's really unfair they were even

paired together to begin with.

Ava.

- It was us.
- Us?

- As in you and me us?
- We did it.

And I hear the twins are totally

at each other's throats about it.

Oh, my God.

Zava for the win.

- Zava?
- Yeah.

Like, hashtag Zava.

Like, when Brangelina
was a thing. Oh, my God!

I can't even tell you how
much that break up shook me.

I was so not prepared for that.

Huh. I would not have
pegged you as a cat person.

Don't tell me you hate cats.

If you hate cats, this
is gonna be a problem.

And we're gonna have to start
this thing all over again.

I don't wanna start back
at square one with you.

So, I'm just gonna lie

and say that I like cats.

But how do you really feel?

I like cats.

Nice laugh, Jalali.

You know, when they warned
me you'd be the only person

here over winter break,
they were not kidding.

Thank you for staying with me.

I know you gave up a
weekend in the Alps.

Ava, I didn't give anything up.

I'm exactly where I wanna be.

I am too.

Well... I know you
wanted a white Christmas.

I'm sorry I couldn't
make that happen for you.

It's okay.

I'm not really celebrating
this year, remember?

I'm not sure if I can return
the partridges in a pear tree

or the two turtle dogs.

Uh, wait.

Did you just say, "Two turtle dogs?"

Yeah. Why?

Wow.

What?

I love your laugh, Jalali.

Ava.

Ava.

We should head to class, yeah?

Hashtag Zava.

Actually there's something that I forgot

that I should, I should
probably do, so, um

you can just go ahead and
I'll-I'll just catch up.

Oh, okay.

I'll see you there then, yeah?

Mr. Walker? So glad you stopped by.

- You are?
- Your submission..

You got my submission.

I can't stop listening to it.

I'm submitting you to the
Davis Concerto competition.

The winner's work always goes viral.

By this time next year,
you could be world famous.

Uh, I-I don't know what to say.

Don't say anything.

Just keep playing.

You seem busier than usual.

Uh, how's the rocket scientist business?

You know what I do is boring.

I educate employees

on how to use proprietary software.

Not sending people to Mars.

Must be a lot of secrets on that thing.

No, not at all. That's
my personal computer.

- Don't really use it.
- So why do you need it?

Cait. What's going on?

Why the sudden interest
in my job and my laptop?

No reason.

Just gonna take this outside.

Professor Zangulary? Is-is that right?

Zan-Zangulary?

You're from Pennsylvania?
I'm from Rosewood.

That's so funny.

Professor Wagner, psychology.

Yeah, no, it's pronounced Vanderwaal.

Yeah. The second A is silent.

Oh, wow, I didn't know that

pocket squares were so intricate.

Nine children.

Hola. Alison DiLaurentis.

Gabriel Evaristo.

Professor of language studies.

On loan from the
University of Buenos Aires.

Um..

_

I'm learning Spanish on an app.

How did I do?

I think you need to try another app.

What did I say?

What do you think you said?

I know an Argentine baker

who bakes without preservatives.

Ah, I get it now.

I don't think I wanna know what I said.

I think you need a tutor

not an app.

Maybe I do.

Why are you playing?

I'm here, and I'm a Hotchkiss.

- Here, take my phone.
- I have a phone.

It's loaded with a built-in
voice stress analyzer.

Dana's not gonna lie to me.

I'm asking her simple
non-threatening questions today.

I get it, but if we can prove
when she's telling the truth

then we can also prove when
she's lying. Down the line.

Because sometimes the truth
is more telling than a lie.

A truth detector?

Who's in the circle now?

The games begin.

- What's your favorite color?
- Blue.

Why did you bring
Alison to Beacon Heights?

I didn't. Mrs. Hotchkiss did.

If you could meet one historical
figure who would it be?

Why do you care?

You can't answer a
question with a question.

Didn't you hear the rules?

Amelia Earhart, after she went missing.

- Of course.
- Where's your safe place?

If I told you it
wouldn't be safe anymore.

Why'd you go into law enforcement?

My younger sister was
bullied in high school

she killed herself

bullies got away with it.

Bullies.

Isn't it funny how sometimes

we become the thing that we hate?

Did we get what we need?

It's a start.

Hey.

You never showed up to
class. What happened?

You okay?

Earlier you seemed happy. What changed?

Well, you reminded me of someone I lost.

Drink?

Why do have Nolan's shirt?

Because I didn't have
anything else to wear

the first time I stayed over.

Oh.

I thought he and Caitlin were a thing.

It's complicated.

Even more than I thought.

You wanna talk about it?

I can't.

Sorry for your loss.

Nice view.

I let myself in. I hope you don't mind.

Kidding. I actually
don't care if you mind.

- What do you want?
- I know about your injury.

And that you can't play right now

but congrats on your original recording.

Being submitted to the
Davis Concerto competition.

- How did you, uh...
- Campus doctor.

Beacon Guard, full access, remember?

You're drowning.

And I'm here to offer you a lifeline.

Why should I trust you?

'Cause you don't have a choice.

I just need you to do one
thing and this all goes away.

Tell me where Alison,
Ava and Caitlin were

the night Nolan was killed.

And why don't you
think it was me anymore?

'Cause I've been watching you.

You could never stand up to Nolan.

You don't fight back.

You haven't got it in you.

So when you say that this all goes away.

I wipe the slate clean.

I'll take care of Professor James.

He'll never know that
wasn't your recording.

You won't be expelled.

And because you're
the one I actually like

I'll throw in an iron clad alibi.

And I'll make sure your
friends never know it was you

who ratted them out.

Think it over.

- Here you go. Yeah.
- Thank you.

- Dylan?
- No.

He still hasn't responded to my texts.

Why did you wanna see us?

I sobered up for you.

Why were you drinking again?

You first.

My new friend Jeremy.

He's not my new friend.

We've been seeing each
other for almost a year.

- You and the British guy?
- Yeah.

We started dating when you and
Nolan started seeing each other.

A year?

How did you swing that?

We've had a lot of car dates.

But you couldn't breakup with Nolan

because he was blackmailing you.

One of my moms is having an affair

and Nolan had pictures.

Wow.

Well, I'm sorry I looked the other way.

I didn't know Nolan
was such a jerk to you.

You probably wonder why I loved him.

There was a time when Nolan
actually cared about me.

I know what that side of him looks like.

He made me forget that I was alone.

You got the best of him.

Your turn.

This guy made me laugh today.

Like Nolan used to make me laugh.

And that's bad?

It just kinda snuck up on me.

And it felt awful.

- Like I was betraying Nolan.
- Okay, so you like this guy.

I don't know. Maybe.

Nolan would want you to be happy.

- You have to know that.
- Thank you.

You know, I really am enjoying
this warm and fuzzy truth talk.

But why tell me about Jeremy now?

Because I need somebody to talk to.

And you were so right
about Jeremy's computer.

He says he hardly uses it.

So why lock it up like Fort Knox?

Did you ask him?

He would not give me a straight answer

which is so not like Jeremy.

He's keeping something from me.

- Like what?
- I don't know.

But I need to find out.

- Dylan?
- Yeah.

He says to meet at the quad.

I know it's fast, but don't worry.

I got enough this
morning to pull this off.

Remember, we have to act normal-ish.

Hi.

Hey.

So we're doing this?
For real? In person?

For real. Game on.

Gracias.

How did you land such a nice place?

My apartment looks like a dorm.

I'm sure it's not that bad.

Trust me, it is.

So how is it being a TA

while you're getting your masters?

It's a lot.

You know, especially at BHU.

I understand.

I worked all the way
through college too.

What'd you do?

If I tell you, you'll laugh.

I mean, I've already
offended you in Spanish

so go for it.

I taught ball room dancing.

See, I told you.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to laugh.

I just didn't expect that.

My ex-wife and I took
some ball room classes,

but... it's more scary than fun

'cause our teacher was so mean.

That's terrible.

Dancing should be fun.

What're you doing?

Giving you a free lesson.

Oh, no, that's okay. It's been a while.

I'm a really good teacher.

See? Fun.

My alarm.

I have to get ready for the mixer.

We can be late. Or ditch it.

I'm a TA. It's mandatory.

- I'll see you there?
- Yeah.

Gabriel.

Thank you for the dance.

Alright then.

What?

Nothing. It's a good move.

We can't do this.

We're just playing chess.

No, we're not.

- Hey, Dylan.
- Do not "Hey, Dylan" me.

I thought we were friends.

Look, I asked you a million
times if it would work

and you promised that it would.

- You said that you got...
- I deleted it.

Well, then, how did
my professor hear it?

It must've been Dana, she
found a way to send it to him.

How're you blaming me for this?

You're the one who made the mistake.

Dylan, come on, this is so not fair.

I'm about to get kicked out of here.

- Is that fair?
- I'm sorry.

What am I supposed to do about it?

I don't know what this is about

but this isn't the time

or the place.

Celebrating our faculty and staff

here at BHU is an annual tradition.

But recent events have
forced me to take a hard look

at our mission statement.

We've always strived for
perfection here at BHU

and I'm responsible for that.

But with responsibility
comes repercussions.

In light of understanding
how our culture here at BHU

breeds competition and pressure

I've decided it's time for a change.

Success at BHU will no longer

be strictly about academic performance.

We will move forward with
a more balanced approach

and curriculum.

Thank you.

Did you know about
this? It's kind of huge.

First time I'm hearing the Claire 2.0.

You okay?

What does okay even mean anymore?

Hi, we haven't met.

I'm Gabriel. And welcome home.

- Thank you.
- Shall we get some drinks?

I'm good.

Have you tried the mojitos?

It's my mother's recipe.

How can you say no to that?

Shall we?

Oh, hey. I didn't know you'd be here.

Have you been messing with my computer?

Uh, no.

Where are you going? It's late.

- Work.
- Do you want me to drive you?

We could stop for dinner on the way.

No, I've really gotta go.

Cait, I love you.

I love you too.

What you lookin' at?

Am I gonna have to put
a bell around your neck?

That's almost funny.

Thank you for your phone

but I'm gonna need to
keep it for a while.

Fine, but hurry up.

Dana is a distraction.

I need to find out
who killed my brother.

Well, I have to be honest.

My daughter Taylor inspired

all the soul searching.

Taylor's struggles really forced me

to re-examine our
philosophy here at BHU.

As one of the most respected
universities in the country

it is my hope that BHU
will become a leader

in a broader movement of change.

And that our students
will be much more balanced

and safer because of it. Thank you.

I know what you're going to say.

That I'm using your situation
to promote the school.

But I really do want
this place to change.

Because of you and for you.

I believe you.

But this is typical, mom.

I snap and you end up
smelling like a rose

just like last time.

You made the right decision.

Let's just get this over with.

This is in front of your dorm

Time stamped at the exact moment

Nolan was thrown from Thorne Hall.

That proves you weren't
there when it happened.

I wasn't at my dorm. I was at...

Shh, shh, shh..

It's real if I say it's real.

Now, tell me the truth
about where your friends were

the night Nolan was killed
and this becomes your truth.

Just like that?

You'd do that, you'd
manufacture evidence for me?

If it gets me what I need.

And they'd never find out
that I was the one who told?

No. After what I saw today,
I'm surprised you care.

I want this to be over.

This is a really hard
thing for me to do.

Take some time. Pull yourself together.

Then come by my office.

She's gone.

Did we get it?

Just like that, you'd do that

you'd manufacture evidence for me?

If it gets me what I need.

We got everything.
The fake fight worked.

Once I match this recording to
the baseline I got this morning

we'll have proof that
Dana was telling the truth.

That she was willing to commit
a felony to frame you guys.

She can't lie her way
out of it this time.

This is almost over.

Bitch is goin' down.

_

Now that is perfect Spanish.

You're a good teacher.

I, uh, just like dancing.

I'm a little out of practice.

Uh, I'm sorry, um..

There's a lot going on
tonight. I need to check that.

_

I'm sorry for all the
calls and messages.

I'm not usually this
attached to my phone.

I understand what it's like to
be attached to your students.

It drives my wife crazy and
she's always calling me out...

Whoa! Back up!

You're married?

I thought you knew.

How would I have known?

You're not even wearing a wedding ring.

I teach an elective in romance languages

and modern relationships.

I'm honest in the class
about why an open relationship

works for my wife and me.

I haven't taken your class.

And I'm really trying to avoid drama

in my life right now.

It's more dynamic than
dramatic, but I get it.

Our lifestyle isn't for
everyone, and I never push.

And I'm, I'm not judging.

I didn't think you were.

I hope we can still be friends?

I don't know a lot of
adults in Beacon Heights

so... I'd like that.

I'll treat you to a coffee

for another Spanish lesson.

It's a date.

I mean, not a date, but a date.

- Hey.
- It worked.

Dylan actually got Dana to bait him

with the fake alibi.

You know, when you say
actually it makes it sound like

you didn't think that
I could pull it off.

It worked, Cait. We got her.

Now we can prove to
Claire that Dana's corrupt.

Cait! Hello.

Uh, hey, I gotta call you back, okay.

I'll be.. Sorry.

That's weird.

She said, she's calling us back.

I guess it's time to
start packin' up. Huh?

Dylan, I'm sorry.

I got so excited about
bringing Dana down

I forgot what this
actually means for you.

Who do you think I should tell first?

Andrew or... Professor James.

When the school finds out
what Dana was doing to us

the pressure she's been putting on us..

Maybe the ethics committee
will give you a second chance.

Maybe they won't expel you.

We did delete the email.

It was Dana who sent
the recording to James.

You know what really surprises me..

If I do get kicked out..

I think I can live with it.

After how hard you worked to get here?

We've spent this whole semester
running on a hamster wheel.

I've made the same
mistakes over and over.

I cheated to get ahead. That's not..

- That's not who I am.
- Well, you made a mistake.

But you belong at BHU.

And she's actually kinda right.

Okay, let's get back to
work. Let's finish up.

No, I-I meant about the fun part.

I know. I kinda like
hanging out with you guys.

Well, it brought us together.

- For Caitlin.
- For Caitlin.

So I guess that's our silver lining.

Are we... together?

Don't give up.

Don't get me wrong, I'm gonna
fight like hell to stay here.

No matter how it turns
out, I'll be okay.

I'll be happy for you and for Caitlin.

- Nolan?
- Ho! Ho! Ho!

Have you been a good girl, Ava Jalali?

I don't know, Santa. You tell me.

Have I been naughty?

- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.

I didn't know we were doing presents.

I didn't get you anything.

You have already given me
the best gift I ever got.

- And what's that?
- You.

Now, open the presents

because nothing makes me happier

than to see you happy.

Nothing makes me
happier than to see you happy.

I'm using this morning's
baseline recording

of her truths to match
against her offer to Dylan.

That way when we take it to Claire

Dana will not be able to argue
that she was bullshitting.

She had every
intention of giving Dylan a fake alibi.

Then we can prove that Dana
was willing to break the law

to get what she wants.

I don't think Claire 2.0 will want that

from her head of security.

_

Uh, yeah, I'll, um..

I'll let you know when we
have the analysis confirmation.

And we'll take it to Claire.

And then you can finally start living

your best Beacon Heights life.

_

I would never do anything that
would get you into trouble.

But you need to know..

I can't stop thinkin' about you.

Do what you want with that.

But I had to tell you.

I'm surprised your
mom let you out alone.

Oh, I'm not alone. There are
two guards on your front porch.

I know I should've called first.

But I didn't wanna talk
about this over the phone.

What is it?

I want to be the person to give my mom

the evidence about Dana.

I need it to come from me so she
understands how valuable I am.

It's the only way she'll give
me full access to Beacon Guard

and everything she knows
about who killed Nolan.

Mona still doesn't trust you.

But you do.

You shouldn't have followed me.

Why?

Jeremy, what's going on?

Get in the car.
