"Okay, so your sister's pregnant? How'd that happen?" Hanna asked.
"I figure pretty much the usual way." Spencer said.
"I can't believe Melissa's pregnant, I'm so happy for them." Katherine said.
"It's not really a how question. It's more of a why question." Emily said.
"So she can start a family? I mean, they're married, it's not a big surprise that they want kids." Katherine said.
"Well, I mean, I guess Melissa could have gotten all maternal but I doubt it." Spencer said.
"This is so creepy." Hanna said.
"Where are they now?" Emily asked.
"Philadelphia. Shopping." Spencer said.
"What do you think this means?" Hanna asked, looking at the paper that Toby had given Spencer.
"I don't know, but Toby wanted us to have it." Spencer said, pulling up a translator. "There. It's in Braille."
"You wanna see this, Aria?" Emily asked.
"No. I can see just fine from here." Aria said.
Katherine got up and went to sit next to Aria.
"The first letter's a B." Spencer said.
"Hanna feels awful, Aria. Cut her some slack." Katherine whispered.
"If my mom had gotten there, Ezra could've been sent to jail." Aria whispered.
"Look, Hanna made sure that she didn't get there. You and Ezra are fine. Please forgive her. I haven't seen Hanna this upset since Alison started calling her Hefty Hanna." Katherine whispered.
"A, it's an A." Spencer said.
"I think it's gonna tell us who A is." Hanna said.
"D?" Spencer said, writing down the last letter.
"B-A-D." Emily said.
"Bad." Hanna said.
"Bad? Why the hell would she write that in code? She literally could've written bad and we'd still be confused." Katherine said.
"That's the whole message? Bad?" Spencer said.
"What's it supposed to mean?" Emily asked.
"It means you got punked. Toby doesn't trust us. I don't blame him." Aria said.
"No, I don't think he would mess with us like this." Emily said.
"You'd be surprised what people are capable of." Aria said. Katherine gave her a look and Aria tried to ignore it.
"You guys, we have to figure this out. This might be a joke, but it could be something real." Spencer said.
"Well, look, either way, Toby's not the enemy." Hanna said.
"You know what, guys? I'm gonna go." Aria said, picking up her stuff and heading towards the door.
"I'm gonna go with her. Tell me what you figure out." Katherine said, grabbing her things and rushing after Aria.
"What was that all about?" Spencer asked, when the two girls left.
"How should I know?" Hanna asked.
"Aria, wait up." Katherine said, following Aria to the car.
"Get in." Aria said.
Katherine got into the car and Aria started driving. She parked in front of an apartment complex, making Katherine confused.
