Pretty Little Liars ep 1.11

Oh, show, did you...just have Hanna shipping herself with Allison in her (probable/possible) dream, and casting Allison as an avenging hero?  I think you did.

Brief points:

1.  Ezra, take your manpain and go away.
2.  Lucas, you were sweet.  Now you are a Nice Guy.  I permanently unship you with Hanna.  I think we're down to Alex now for the men in this show that I like?  I was willing to like Noel, if mostly because he wasn't Ezra, but I sense Bad Things there.
3.  I think Spencer is happy that Aria's Bad Choices top hers.  Hopefully, Aria, too, will improve her taste as time goes by.
4.  PEACE BRA!  MONA BROUGHT A PEACE BRA!  *cough*
5.  This episode left me Deeply Concerned about Melissa.  Though i'm not sure if I'm worried bad things will happen to her, or that she'll be Sekritly Evil.  (I...don't know that I like her?  But she and Spencer are making up, and i like that.)
6.  The scene where Emily's parents discuss her coming out to them was...depressingly realistic, really.  Though it could have been far worse.
7.  Oh, Jenna, your devotion to your forbidden love with your creepy brother is almost touching.  I...do like how neither she nor the show thinks her being disabled is going to be any hindrance at all to her doing something if she decides to.
8.  Woot!  They're discussing multiple As now!
9.  Also, Aria, there were woodchips on that stump, and it was clearly freshly cut?  The disbelief was a bit thick there.  Also, never wear that leopard print thing again.  Do we need to have your BFFs dress you?

So, more thematically than this episode, I find it interesting that Hanna basically wanted to be Allison in a way, and now she's the one who keeps having everyone's secrets fall into her lap?  But then they all come out anyway without her actually spilling the beans.  But I'm not sure if there are deliberate parallels there or not.
