A-gain (Pretty Little Liars 3x01 It Happened That Night Episode Review)


The four infamous girls of Rosewood are back... together with their respective mothers and boyfriends. And of course, last season's admitted-psycho-bitch-slash-stalker A. 

The third season of ABC Family's teen thriller drama Pretty Little Liars is back for more drama, more make out sessions, more scheming, more lying, and more talking-in-the-dark shenanigan.  On the season two finale a few months back, it was revealed that Hannah's bff - Mona - is A. However, we also found out that Mona is not alone in the whole A-plan. There's an A Team and they are willing to ruin the lives of Spencer, Aria, Hanna and Emily. The finale ended with a shocking death - Emily's girlfriend, Maya, was found dead in her house. Was she murdered? or did she commit suicide? 



The premier episode basically informed the viewers where the characters are 5 months after the whole Mona incident. The girls seems okay, but the truth is, they are still haunted by what happened before. Emily, on the other hand, is the most depressed out of all of them. She's still grieving for Maya and she feels that she let down her friends/family. 

Despite all of these, the girls are still in touch and happy with their boyfriends (well, except Emily of course). Ezra, Toby, and Caleb are the pillars of strength of Arya, Spencer, and Hanna, respectively. 

As when the girls thought that their horrible experience with A is over, they received another conundrum. Emily was "hypnotized" and found herself in front of Allison's dug out grave. Her friends helped Emily recover from this and tried to escape this mystery without telling anything to the cops. The entire episode built up to a goosebumps-y scene: the girls received another text message from A informing them that this is not yet over.

Although the episode felt uneven, especially with the unnecessary make out scenes and the out-of-the-place humor, "It Happened That Night" never failed me to glue my face on my screen. It was still fun and exciting to watch.  The episode felt more like a normal episode rather than a season premiere. 

Here are some other hilights from the episode:
  • Mona is still in the asylum/clinic for the insane. Nonetheless, she still get some visits from her ex-best friend Hanna.
  • Garret knows who dug out the grave of Allison. But he wasn't able to tell it to Spencer since the cops took him inside prison.
  • Hanna's boobs
  • Emily's such a party-pooper
  • Hanna's boobs
  • Arya's hair
  • Hanna's boobs

Now that PLL is back once again, let's expect an exciting and surprising season 3!
