Hanna takes her career as a superhero to the next level, stepping in to get Toby off the Kool-Aid and back into Spencer's arms when he arrives in town as Jenna's squire like the last two seasons never happened. Mona -- who provides Hanna with a phone and antibacterial lotion while doing sixteen other things and slowly taking over everybody's life -- even gets in on the action. But alas, Toby's just as invested in Wrencer as any right-thinking individual may be, and plays his cards close to his giant chest.

But it's the sudden turning point mid-episode where Hanna really gets shit done: A frames Garrett by inviting Jenna to Jason's house for a secret meeting, only to knock her out and blow the place up. And who's there to save her? Hanna and Spencer, of course! It is one of the most awesome things of the entire season, and one we've waited long enough to see. Still on the road to eyeball recovery, Jenna's grateful -- although confused, as usual, by the concept of kindness.

In other news, Ella inspires Ezra to blow off Byron's job offer as a sort of moral Hail Mary, which finally in turn forces Ella and Byron to discuss their daughter's love life in a fashion less passive-aggressive, and more outright aggressive. Also, Maya emails and texts Emily to say she's fine and not to contact her parents, so Emily immediately contacts her parents.

Licensed Teen Pilot Duncan Albert, as it turns out, was the one friend of Vivian/Alison's who got to see behind her masks: He would take her up in his airplane and she'd feel free of all her various attackers. Once again putting Aria into the position of becoming Vivian, Duncan gives her the wheel and then interrogates her about her own feelings and actions toward Alison, finally coming to trust her and giving us the next clue: Alison was back in Rosewood from Hilton Head a good seven hours before the Liars thought, and probably up to no good, during her last day on earth.

A bag of Alison's garbage -- left behind by the St. Germains -- provides several more plotpoints and clues, as it sets up not only Hanna's dramatic Jenna-rescue but also a parlay of sorts between Veronica and her husband's bastard, Jason. It also helps the Liars with a more precise location as to Alison's whereabouts that day: A music festival or something, where she was more than likely meeting either an A lead or A herself...

Whom we'll be meeting in what, an episode from now? Shit, this show has been so good lately I can't even stand it.
