(Previously, on Tab in Transit, I started to live-blog reactions to PLL each week. It just felt right. Perks of being a mercilessly devoted fangirl of that caliber is that it has been 6 looooong months and I have convenient Sparknote versions of my thoughts on most of the beginning of season 7. So, now the show is back and obligated to justify becoming the vast time commitment that is being obsessed with theorizing this show. Let’s see how it holds up.)
- So Tab, just to confirm. You’re a grownasswoman who is actively avoiding social media and groupchats for fear of spoilers? No further questions, let’s begin.
- Wow, I feel actual anxiety about this.
- “What’s your mom’s name, Spencer?” IT’S NOT THAT SIMPLE, AMBULANCE MAN.
- “She probably walked into a closet.” No shame Hanna is my favorite Hanna.
- WHO CARES WHERE YVONNE IS AMIRITE
- This is moving way too fast I’m not happy
- No gunshot is gonna keep Spence from snooping
- This teeny pink leather jacket is too perfect
- “Welcome home.” Bye, heart
- Kay Ezra taking the bags Hanna pinching Caleb in bed all good things all good things
- Nothing kills the bedroom mood like “Grunwald is starting to rub off on me”
- Is it just the pantsuit or does Paige look sorta forty?
- Bitchy Ali is not the same as mean ali
- “All the things that happen in this town and those two get taken our by a DEER” um right? Like, can A control animals now orrrr…
- Is it weird to Ezra that his current boo can relate to his old boo about their post-abduction feels?
- This boardgame is a tad much.
- Is Hanna in a good place to give engagement advice
- “Too bad about Noel… Well, not really.” TRUTH
- Another gun… Would Mary shoot Spencer and then rush to her and pretend to and/or actually be her Mom?
- I don’t have problems like these because I’m actually the girl pretending to do yoga under the hand-dryer in the deodorant commercial irl
- I forgot Holden existed tbh. Coincedence that all of Aria’s flames have literary names?
- “We’re all adults now” OH OKAY RIGHT
- Aria really makes me feel like I need 8 leather jackets.
- This whole Mona-Hanna fashion talk is very season 1 and cute but where are we gonna get a design studio in 2 hours?
- Spencer’s desperate YOU WANNA GLASS OF WINE is all of us watching this show
- This whole town is some combination of Delaurentis/Hastings genes I guess
- COOL FREE BABY NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS PLAN
- Wait so Hanna literally makes these clothes in her notebook within a few hours?
- Apparently nobody saw any problem with Mona taking pictures of original designs
- Theeeeere’s high school Ali coming out. I know I wanted this, but I don’t know how I feel about it.
- Maybe the game is some sort of Jumanji portal to suck us straight into the heart of this twisted universe we allowed ourselves to get sucked into.
- She’s not dumb enough to do dare…?
- I’m about this Fitzgerald Spoby meetup though. I know I should be okay with exes who want good things for each other but I CAN’T
- Emily finally standing up to Ali yaaaas
- Yes Ali but all your memories being lies is suitable since you sit on a throne of lies
- Okay but like I could not care less about this fashion designer drama.
- And I’ve decided I’m all about this bizarrely premeditated game.
- Oh God that horrific Shadowhunters show is still around? That’s the only thing that I’m certain is worse than this.
- Paige’s unexpected wisdom tho
- *convenient plot tool to get the characters to physically say the word “endgame” since that’s the main PR buzzword*
- WAIT THERE SO MANY FLASHES IN THE PREVIEW AND THE RECORDING CUTS OFF
- IS WE GONNA GET ANSWERS OR NAH
*Note: I didn’t post this last Tuesday because I was feeling like I was going to be enormously disappointed, but after this week’s episode I couldn’t resist.
