Spencer and Lily looked at each other nervously but they knew what they had to do

So Spencer first climbed out of the hall and began to climb down the ladder, and Lily followed after her. It took them down to some large creepy room, where luckily their friend was standing alive

She had her phone torch on and was shining it at something "Look at this."

Their eyes went to what she was looking at. A table with four levers on it

Five years ago

"Choose one"

"No please!" Lily sobbed "Stop!"

"Choose one"

"I can't" She cried

"3"

"Stop please"

"2"

"No don't do this"

"1"

"Please don't"

"0"

"NO!" 

Present

It appeared Spencer and Aria were having similar memories based on the haunted looks on their faces "Now I know where Charlotte learned all those special little skills she had."

They turned their torches onto the rest of the dusty, dreary room and Spencer walked over to door in the corner "All this dust and the doorknob's clean." She whispered

They opened the door and it revealed a long bricked hallway "Stay close." Aria whispered as they began to walk down it "Why is this hallway so narrow?" 

"Cause it's not a real hallway." Spencer said "It's been walled off. And this whole section of the sanitarium sealed like something in a Poe story." 

"So what, you-you think they put the wall up when they turned this place into a hotel?" Aria asked 

"Well, the sanitarium must have done it." Lily asked 

"Why?" She asked 

"Well, to avoid having to explain things like that little motivational experiment back there." Spencer suggested "Buildings can have secrets, too, just like people." 

"So the hotel doesn't know this exists?" Aria asked

"I bet it's not on any of the blueprints." Lily nodded 

"But Sara knew." She said 

"Yeah. How do you suppose that happened?" Spencer asked sarcastically 

"Long, quiet chats with Charlotte?" Aria replied and she nodded

Then they reached the end of the hallway where there was just a file cabinet "Come on. Let's go back the way we came." Spencer said

"Spencer, the file cabinet." Aria said

"What about it?" She asked 

"No dust." 

They pushed the file cabinet out of the way and it revealed even more hallway behind it which they followed, and then up some stairs to a door which took them outside "Are we still in Pennsylvania?" Aria asked 

"Yeah, we're behind the Radley someplace." Spencer nodded

"Well, this explains how Sara got in and out of her hotel room to mess with us." Lily said
