As the sixth season begins moments after the season five finale, Aria, Emily, Hanna, Spencer and Mona are trapped outside the "dollhouse" where their masked tormentor, Charles, has been keeping them -- with nowhere to run.
The girls may have gotten out of the Dollhouse, but what happened to them during their time of captivity has lasting effects. With worried loved ones watching over them, the PLLs are home and trying to heal -- without much success. Even with suspected tormentor Andrew in custody, Aria, Emily, Hanna and Spencer fear they are far from safe.
After lying to Alison and Jason about Charles, Kenneth DiLaurentis comes clean about the family's connection to the young boy. While he won't give much detail about Charles' past, he says enough to give the girls a clue of where to look for the missing pieces.
After years of being tormented and numerous shocking revelations, the Liars finally uncovered the true identity of "A." It's now five years later, and that means a new look, new secrets... and new lies. The girls are not the same people they were when they left Rosewood.
The girls' lives have been turned upside down by their captivity and each one of them is looking for answers to make sense of their ordeal. Aria focuses on Andrew by trying to figure out who this boy really is, while Emily tries to connect with a new friend.
