Eye of the Beholder - Part 1 of 2 - The Beauties and the Normals

We learn a lot of secrets in this episode and a LOT of craziness occurs, but I am still dumbfounded that this new Duncan character actually happens to show up near that creepy doll hospital at the same time Aria dons Vivian's infamous red trench. However, lucky for us, Duncan is a cutie AND a pilot apparently. Back in Rosewood, Toby returns with a one-eye-operated-on Jenna. He is completely rude to Spencer which totally means he's trying to get on Jenna's good side to find out her secrets. Jason brings the PLLs a bag that belonged to Alison--containing clues! Emily hears from Maya. And Hanna is a hero. A real one. Like, she legit rescued someone. 

Braids are abounding in Rosewood lately! And I love it. I actually replicated this hair-do (well, tried to do) and my version, at least, turned out pretty awesome! Thanks for the inspiration Aria! 

Although I don't think I will drawing inspiration from this skull and leather look. On second thought, each component of this wack-a-doodle outfit is pretty awesome. Skull t-shirt = badass. Pleated leather mini = divine. Leather jacket = a little over-the-top BUT I will overlook because she has hardcore brass-knuckle-imitating rings on. 

Can this woman really do no wrong in the fashion department? Always put together, always tailored, gorgeous pieces of clothing. She's like the Reese Witherspoon on the Red Carpet of TV Moms. 

I find that this is typical Spencer. Preppy with a twist. Yes, that is a sheer turtleneck. With some ass-kicking lace-up boots. 

Take note: this is not the first sheer item of clothing that wonders Rosewood High's halls this week. 

No one else can wear high-waisted pants like Spencer Hastings. And no one should dare try. 

And her top? Just the perfect amount of tucked in and billowy. 

Emily must have gotten into a fight with a bear, as her shirt has clearly been mauled. Does she purposefully take all her t-shirts out into the woods to be torn apart by animals?

At least this shirt is not ripped. A little on the lumberjack side, especially with those combat-esque boots. We'll just blame it on her loss of Maya, shall we? 

I always thought Chad was the very unfortunate of the Lowe brothers. However, as they age, they are looking more and more alike. This is the most uncanny resemblance to Rob I have seen yet. 

Eye of the Beholder - Part 2 of 2 - The Wacky and the Hotties

In addition to some crazy-filled storylines, there were some crazy, wacky, weird, I-can't-believe-they-wear-that-to-school outfits thrown in there good measure. 

Take, for instance, Hanna. At first you're thinking, "Wow, great jacket. Love the pink and black combo." Then you realize it's a maxi dress that's SHEER. Who wears this to high school??

However, she does look pretty glam just standing around the kitchen... 

Then you have Mona who we know usually takes the crazy train to classes but this is certified music video costume. It's a little hard to see but I'm pretty sure her tights or leggings (or whatever she's calling those bottoms) are ripped/slashed all the way up to her macaron. Once again, I must ask...who wears this kind of outfit on a normal school day??

 

Jenna just has perfect hair (like the rest of the PLLs). And it amazes me how she gets it that perfect when CAN'T SEE. Do you think Toby helps her?

But for the love of god, please buy a new pair of sunnies!!!

Now for your viewing pleasure: The Hotties of Rosewood (minus Top Hottie--Caleb...unfortunately we did not get to see his pretty face this week)

Meet Duncan. Ali's secret boyfriend. A.K.A Ali's secret boy who flies her around in his plane...

Nice to see a different kind of boy-style on this show. How cute is his little cardi??

Now that Toby and Spence are broken up, I'm finding him less and less cute. Why is he so serious all the time? Cheer up, emo kid!

I swear Jason wears the exact same clothes every episode. But at least he's got really nice hair...like almost Caleb nice. 

Leave it to Ezra to bring back the corduroy vest. Although I'm thinking he should have left it at the thrift store he found it at. 

Oh Wren. Would you please be my doctor? This man has officially become my new crush. 

CREEPIEST MOMENT EVER. I think that bandage over her eye makes it just that much more creepy. 

And now the fire. This was pretty dramatic, but the girls definitely know how to pull off a rescue in style. 

We're that much closer to unlocking A's identity, my PLL worshippers! Only two more episodes to go! 

Mini Recap: Eye of the Beholder

OH. EM. GEE. Does PLL know how to put on a show or what? Ali's secret boy toy shows up and doesn't even know she died. Then Aria goes flying. in. a plane. with him. Ella and Byron confront Ezra, who finally grows some ballz and shuts Byron down. Boom. Emily gets secret emails from Maya (although I'm thinking they're not really from her). Toby returns and is seemingly BFF or FWB with Jenna again. And then...the rescue. Yes, there's a rescue scene involving a blind girl and fire. Does it get better than that?!

Drama-rama du jour
Really everything is uber drama-filled this week.   

Gratuitous Male Shirtlessness
I swear we better see something before this season ends! 

Best Outfit
Who can wear a skull-printed tee with a pleated leather skirt, leather jacket and cute boho braids in her hair? You guess Aria? Of course it is! For a pretty bizarre outift, I kinda loved it. But don't get me started on her Finding Nemo dress  at the end...

Best 'A' Message
"Where there's smoke, there's payback."  

Current 'A' Suspect
Ok, so I'm pretty sure A can't be Jenna anymore, and maybe not Garrett, either. Melissa gets my vote again this week.

Kate (me!) is recapping the skull goodness. Look for it Thursday!
