PLL Commentary - s01e13 “Know Your Frenemies”
01/03/2021 Duración: 49minCheck out our commentary track for Pretty Little Liars s01e13 “Know Your Frenemies.” Aria can’t complain, because A saved her relationship. Maya gets shipped off to “juvie camp” because nosy Pam found a joint and some roach clips, so the other liars coordinate an evening of lovemaking for Emily, lending her Spencer’s bed. That’s a sentence. Hanna bears the brunt of A’s attentions, being forced to eat cupcakes and recall the time Ali tried to give her an eating disorder. And of course, Spencer has her hands full suspecting Ian of murder, and spying on Toby to watch him cry.
