Pretty Little Liars Recap: Emily's Mom Is in Danger!

Taleb arrive at Howell Acres Flight Center to try and find out who rented the plane that "A" used. After giving the desk clerk a financial bribe, all they learn is that the last flight plan was the night of the fire, the plane was destined for Delaware, and under the fake name John Smith. With no leads, Taleb leaves and desk clerk gets on his phone. Obviously, to call "A":

Look, I'm only going to say this once to everyone on PLL: All the folks you question know "A", so stop thinking that they are giving you legit info, please!

Aria tells Spence that she thinks that "A" took a bat to Connor's car. Then Em runs in the room and tells them they gotta go break in Wilden's apt. Girl! I didn't really want you to take the key:

Anyway, the Liars sneak into his crib and put on gloves so they don't leave prints:

Seriously, after four seasons, they've gotten better at sleuthing...until we see that "A" is watching them. For real? Y'all can't close blinds?

Toby doesn't get how the desk clerk knew it was foggy the night of the cabin fire. He shows Caleb the lighter that he found during the fire and asks him to take a look at it. The letters "NW" are on it, and they figure out that they belong to the the desk clerk, who is some guy named Nigel Wright and started the fire. Huh?

WHO THE HELL IS NIGEL WRIGHT?

The Liars see an unopened steak box and open it up. Inside it is spoiled steak and a note from "A":

Hanna is preparing MM's clothes for her hearing, while Aria is sitting outside Hackett's office as Byron, Mike, Connor, and Connor's dad are inside. Ezra sees her and says that he understands that he can't comfort her, but it kills him that he can't help. I get it, but at the same time, I'm like:

Seriously, the show is much better when Aria's love life is not a focal point.

Em goes back to the station and finds everyone looking at MF because she can't find Wilden's key. Turns out Em still has it:

Taleb goes back to the flight place and confronts Nigel. Nig says he wasn't there the night of the fire and just faked a flight plan because CeCe paid him to:

Then Nigel pushes Taleb and runs away, but all is not lost b/c Caleb managed to steal Nig's phone during the scuffle.

Ezra asks to have a word with Vice Principal Hackett. They talk and I'm like:

Spence and Toby look at Nigel's phone, and it's bunch of calls to the same number. They decide to find out if the number belongs to CeCe and think that she might be "A" and the blond girl that Dr. Palmer said watch out for. You guys, my brain:

Mike tells Aria that Ezra stopped him from being expelled. Mike says that he kind of wishes he had trashed Connor's car and that if something like this happens again, he wants to be ready. Hey, Mike:
