Welcome to Planet Alison.

This week's episode focuses on the reintegration of our favorite blonde bombshell into the town of Rosewood. After some persuading from the liars, Alison decides that it's best if she comes home, but first she has to confess to the cops all her dirty little secrets.

The girls make their way to the police station while walking in a very Abbey Road-esque style. Did any of the fans out there catch that moment?

Once at the police station, viewers think that the liars will finally be able to put all the drama from the last few years behind them, but right when they think they are on the same page as Alison, she pulls the rug right out from under their feet.

Of course she's not going to tell the cops what really happens.

Ali ends up doing what she does best, and decides to lie to the police officers, retelling her story as if she had been kidnapped and held captive for the last two years.

Please excuse us while we throw something at our TV.

The reason she decides not to tell the whole truth is because she doesn't think that 'A' is really gone. She reveals this theory later to the girls, when she shows them a mysterious text message from an unknown number.

However, this whole new story that she invented not only confuses us as the viewers but also the police officer that is questioning her. The interrogation is cut short when Ali is reunited with her father, thank gosh because it was a little awkward to watch, if we do say so.

All the girls share in little exchanges with their families, who are all curious to know about Alison's return.

The girls get frustrated with all the fourth degree from their parents and try not to get themselves caught in a lie, but don't know what to say since Alison changed the whole story on them.

Ali reveals that text message that she got to Spencer and Emily. "The trust will bury you in a New York minute." Could the text messages to the girls be starting up again?

The girls all have restless night sleeps. While some wonder who could have sent the text, Aria's conscious weighs on her after having killed Shana during last week's episode. Dealing with the aftermath of the incident, Aria starts to spiral out of control feeling that she can't seem to trust anyone.

Something isn't sitting right with us about where Jayson has been and his whole involvement in Alison's disappearance and what his connection is to Mrs. D death. The liars become suspicious about Jayson as well, even going through his trash and discovering that he had been in New York at the same time that Alison and them were.

Emily puts two and two together and comes up with a theory that Jayson has been trailing Alison for the past two years, and might have been doing so at the request of Mrs. D.

The quest for Mrs. DiLaurentes continues, as now Hanna's mom is involved, even going as far as to look through old emails sent from her email address. Only one suspicious message stands out, a draft to an unknown recipient that was never sent, saying something along of the lines of "I can't protect you anymore."

While the other liars are either holed up in their rooms overcome with anxiety or trying to solve some mysteries, Spencer decides that she'd rather spend the majority of the episode tangled up in the sheets with Toby, good plan Spence... NOT.

Alison, somehow finds an unsupervised moment to go to a mausoleum and pay her respects to... well to herself. But what would a funeral be without a little company?

As Ali turns around she realizes she has been followed by Mona, and decides that now would be the perfect time to make amends with her former enemy.

It seems that Mona's not buying the crocodile tears and she instead fesses up to being the person who sent the "New York minute" text earlier.

While we think it's always courteous to sign your name at the end of a text, Mona doesn't. She tells Ali that she is going to make her wish she never came back to Rosewood.

While Aria's freak-out continues, Emily persuades her not to go to the police or do anything rash until all the girls decide upon what to do together. They wait in the barn for the other liars to show up, but are soon interrupted by Ali's new adopted dog barking in the backyard. The new mutt has just made the discovery of a lifetime.

The episode ends with the new pup digging up the buried Mrs. DiLaurentis, which soon turns the Hastings/DiLaurentes backyard into a crime scene, which is much too familiar for these girls.

Tune in next Tuesday at 8 p.m. to find out where we go from here.
