Garrett stops by and tells the girls Ian had been dead for a week. Emily thinks that means it was A who had been texting Melissa the past few days. Emily seems more nervous at how much A is involved.

A hooded figure walks up to a dark house. Just before he can break into the window Jason grabs his hand.
Jason shows up at Aria's home with Mike. He hasn't called the police. When Aria asks why he didn't the response is "I've seen enough cops at my place the past year."
Emily appears to be doing research on some old text messages and has come up with something.
Caleb lets slip to Hanna that her foster mother is still getting cash for him living with him. He doesn't seem to mind his currently situation and makes a passing reference to past abuse.
Emily tells the girls that Ian's suicide note is entirely made up of past text messages from A. This means that Ian never actually confessed in writing. They need more answers and Emily mentions running into Logan Reed.

Hanna wants to wear a tight red dress to Ian's funeral. This leads to a discussion of another funeral of a disliked person, her grandfather.
The girls all attend Ian's funeral to support Spencer. The police are there for security. Spencer tells Emily that perhaps what they're doing is an obsession created by A. Emily wants more information but Spencer seems interested in her family. Ezra shows up and sits with Aria's parents. Emily takes Garrett aside and tells him that Logan never met Ian. He says if it will make her feel better he'll try to find out who the woman was. During the burial Aria notices Jason sitting nearby.
After the service Emily has some unflattering things to say about Jason while Aria stares at him. Ezra walks up and says he came there to "take the next stop" but choked when her parents asked why he was there. She says she needed a hug from him today and he leaves, too nervous to embrace in front of everyone.
Hannah confronts Caleb's foster mother. She threatens that if the woman doesn't give the checks to Caleb until he's 18 she'll send an attorney after her.
Jason tells Aria he was always jealous of Alison. He thinks his parents believed they lost the wrong child. He says he doesn't remember anything from the night Alison died. He woke up the next morning with a note in his pocket reading "I know what you did." That note nearly killed him but Ian's confession finally has given him some peace.
Melissa tells Spencer she's having a girl and apologizes for picking Ian over her. Melissa begins to tell her "there is something you don't know."

At the cemetery Emily and Spencer are convinced that A made it look like Ian killed Alison, but that they can't be sure. They go to Alison's grave. While there the video they though showed Ian killing Alison is projected nearby in its entirety. Alison wasn't dead after all.
