Me😅 I looked at the thumbnail and thought to myself “hmmm that girl looks familiar” took me about 30 seconds to realize she was a character from a tv show
@@JNDReactsthis! Let’s also talk about how Ali drugged them, and (idk if any of them found out that it was her) if they had confronted her about that..l.she would’ve been arrested because it’s also to drug/spike someone’s drink without their knowledge or permission.
this is so true like i seriously would’ve needed at least a day of recovery after just traveling to hilton head but she just went straight to business, it’s insane. i NEED her work ethic.
Maybe Alison's couple hours during "prior engagement" were when she took a nap, ate some food, combed her wigs, and just took a freaking break. Girl is busy!
well technically she doesn't lie about her age she says she's taking English lit as a class and he assumes she means in Hollis College and so he thinks she's older than she is but really she Isn't. Also we do find out that he knew her true age because of Ali and was wanting to write the novel about them. But that's kinda what I thought like how was he pissed at Ali for lying about her age but then he literally pursues an inappropriate relationship with his student.
@@kyrotv8156 Yeah and even then she doesn't really lie about her age she just says she's taking English lit and he says he's gonna be teaching it and so even if he didn't know which he did he just assumed she mean't at hollis and was a college student. But then when they talking about Ali's missing person poster he knows that she was one of Ali's friends and so he used her to write his book.
@@madisonbusby1457 I get what you’re all saying. I mean she was trying to seem older in that first meeting. I feel that omitting the truth in those situations is technically a lie when you’re trying to appear older and in college when you’re 16 in high school. But yes, you’re both right that at the end of the day he knew she was a teenage and dated her anyway. The entire thing is so messed up and so many levels.
he knew her age. he was writing a book about what happened to ali. he wasnt supposed to fall for her (in the show he was but ezra wasnt planning on falling for her)
ok but are we gonna acknowledge that “vivian darkbloom” is such a campy alias lol like if some lady showed up and gave me that name wearing that outfit i’d be like i need to see an ID immediately
Vivian Darkbloom Is alias that comes from book named Lolita and at one point Allison was seen reading Lolita (that's why she chose this alias) And also Vivian Darkbloom was an alias for the writer "Vladimir Nabokov" ironic how this show was mentioning Lolita so much while romanticizing relationships between teen character and those creepy men 🥴
If the writers had done their job right and had actually sat down and put in half of the effort you did for that video MAYBE the show and the timeline would have made sense and this video would have been easier to put together but I'm grateful for the amount of work that went into this, this is impressive!!
Doing the lords work I see😩Allison and Mona are the MENACES OF THE CENTURY!! But it really is INSANE that these 16 year olds were out here blackmailing, blinding, and MURDERING each other😭
I remember when i first discovered and got into pll back when i was around 11/12 and being CONVINCED that I could be a ✨️mysterious✨️ ✨️powerful✨️ girlie like alison who knows everybody and keeps tabs like a bad bitch. This show's influence on our generation was something else.
35:34 I think Melissa was panicking, thinking Spencer killed Allison with the shovel, so she came barging in demanding to know if Allison was in there, hoping she was.
But then Melissa confesses she was the one that buried Bethany thinking Spencer killed her also - so like its also makes no sense because why would she have killed both
Wouldn’t it make more sense that she came into Alison’s room first looking for her and then went outside trying to find her because she wasn’t in her room?
What I wanna understand is how Alison planned her day to interact with every citizen of rosewood, flew back in state, when did she plan to drug the girls, and the fact that this all happens when she’s like 14 is insane to me Shoutout Sasha Pieterse who was 12 when the pilot was recorded
I also love that the grave at the point where Melissa finds Bethany is just a perfect rectangle as if Grunwwald just neatly dug Alison out instead of just roughly pulling her out the dirt
But they found Bethany in the back yard when they dig up the gazebos or whatever and I always thought Alison was buried in the front yard in the flower bed.
@@emilyradcliff783 same, the first and the second time I watched the show I thought Alison was buried there. In fact, there's a moment when one of the girls tells Ali her mother was buried in the same place she was, and her mother was buried in the front yard lol
@@emilyradcliff783 yeah Alison was buried in the front yard because she goes back the house at one point and her mum sees her get hit in the head by Cece through the window
I actually think Duncan did know Alison's real name because when he was talking with Aria he asks her what Vivian's real name was to prove she is a real friend of Alison's. "And if you're her friend, you'll know her real name."
the amount of teleportation that ali does in the span of this 24 hours is insane. and the only way i can justify the bracelet being with bethany is that ali lost it in the grave trying to dig herself out and the police just found it in there with bethany’s corpse. whether she’s wearing it or not i heavily question. and lol wilden is 50 💀
@@Bunny-bk4uvI strongly believe Ali knew how to drive. Unless she had unlimited access to ubers and cabs she would have needed a car. Ali probably had one of her older bf's teacher her how to drive and she just had a fake I.D.
@@faycoleman9023 ye she's the one driving when she runs away (after spending the night w mona), and mona picks alison up in a car she's also driving that night. rosewood's clearly and incredibly-wealthy area, so i expect that it's pretty normal for most of the kids to be taught to drive from a younger age, so theyre ready to immediately begin the process of driving when they come of age
What i never understood is the geography of rosewood. Where did ali's family live? how maya moved into ali's house on the street near emily, where jenna and toby also lived. They found ali's body there. But this whole night is at spencers barn. And ali's family moves nextdoor to spencer after she dissappears. But in the flashbacks they're also living there. But spencer is not near Emily at all
i always assumed the girls all lived in the same neighborhood just not on the same street bc any scene of them walking to each others house, it’s like a block over or down the road. ali and spencer were next door neighbors. ali’s house was right behind spencer’s house. maya lived in alis house and emilys mom sends her over with a gift basket to welcome her to the neighborhood so again i’m assuming they all live in the same zip code. emily and toby/jenna are next door neighbors and garret lived across from emily. they find alis body at alis house. the sleepover is held in spencer’s barn but ali is buried in her own backyard. ali’s family moves away when she disappears but since mayas family moves after sending her to rehab camp, jason buys the house back and lives in it and then the mom and dad eventually move back in too. mona also lives in the same neighborhood bc in the books she lives right across of spencer but the show doesn’t really touch on where mona lives in closeness to the other girls. but yeah they all live in the same neighborhood and ali and spencer lived next to each other and then emily and toby/jenna lived next to each other
In the books Toby and Emily are next door neighbors, Spencer and Ali are next door neighbors (living in a much richer side of town) and Hanna is on her own street. How far away they all are is still a mystery.
The way I understood was let’s say block A is Hanna,Toby & Emily while block D(their houses are close to the woods rosewood plus those families are the richest ones.) is where Spencer & Ali live. The Block B & C is where Aria & Mona live. Block C is Aria because I remember Spencer saying “any siren at your house I can hear at my house” when aria was at Ezra’s
Spencer and Ali were always supposed to be neighbors. It was like that in the books and im somewhat sure it was mentioned at one point in the show (dont quote me on that, i cant remember so much of the show at times 😭). After Ali disappeared the Dilaurentis' moved out and rented the house out to Maya's family. Then her family moved out and Jason moved back in, eventually joined by the rest of the Dilaurentis'. I think the confusion comes from the fact that they changed the outdoor setting for Alis house at one point in the series. I could be totally wrong tho, I always get the timeline of events in this show mixed up 😭
What I want to know is how Mona had a car when she was supposed to be 15. Cuz when Aria comes back and meets Ezra she’s 16 and it’s the start of her junior year of high school, so the summer before they would’ve all been 15. I suppose it’s possible Mona had recently turned 16, but given her level of intelligence you think she would’ve tested into Kindergarten when she was 5 instead of having to wait until she turned 6 to start…
in my state you can get your learners permit when you turn 15 and can get your license at 15 and a half so idk what the driving laws are like in Pennsylvania but she could’ve been driving anyway by using her parents car or her own car that she drives anyway even though she doesn’t have a license
Alison did everything that night, her schedule was CRAZY but can we talk about how Marlene wrote Alison and Ian's story with him tapping a minor and we all were cool with it??
@@avafurgele7899 For real. 💀 I guess Jessica cared more about Charlotte than Alison? Because to her Charlotte was her other child and Alison was a headache maybe? Lol Even so, WILD!
901 (September 1st) was labor day weekend 2008. I think the writers had forgotten that Alison was missing for about a year before the show started so they used labor day of 2009. That's the only reason I can think of the wonky dates
i was watching this video and when you mentioned that you were working on a video explaining the hastings/dilaurentis/drake family tree, i literally said, out loud, "hUh? girl- good luck, i could never". in all seriousness though- the amount of effort you put into these videos in INSANE and i love them
2 things from an american, in relation to around 20:00 : 1. how long it takes to go from georgia to south carolina depends on where you're going in each state. idk if in PLL it ever says specifically where in these states Alison was meant to be, but georgia and south carolina border each other, so technically it could be a five minute drive if you're going from the edge of georgia to the edge of south carolina. there's some towns that are even located in both states, split right down the middle :) 2. i know british people don't see it this way, but an hour and a half is NOT a long commute for us americans, lol. i know several people who have to drive an hour and a half every morning to get to work (which is incredibly depressing, but it puts into context how spending 1.5 hours traveling is no big deal to us. it's because everything is so far apart here.) i have to drive an hour to get into my nearest big city, and that's a short drive to me. if i'm driving into the city for a party i'm like "oh, it's only an hour drive!" so an hour and a half long plane ride wouldn't be a big deal, other than that they were in a small plane and you might need to refuel when you land.
It’s insane to think about how much stemmed from this day given how horrible the writers were with continuity 😂 like Sydney for example doesn’t come into the show until s4-s5 but she was behind the scenes for years before that
also shana, she was her grandma’s neighbor in georgia 😭 and on top of that it’s implied that she only got the NAT videos this day but had been using them as blackmail before. So had she seen them before? had she just heard ian or jason talk about them? was she in on Ian filming her/the girls for them?
Can we PLEASE stop and just R E A L I Z E how murderous the girls (but people in general, too) in Rosewood were?! I cannot even phantom that, but also the fact that even SPENCER wanted to swing at Alison??? Plus - what do you think Spencer was doing between her talking with Ali and then coming to the barn and telling the girls she heard a scream???
@@CoriBeth01well Elliot was an accident she was driving the car that hit and killed him and noel fell on that axe all on his own so i say she didn't do it
Ali said that after her and Spencer fought and found the drugs that she brought her back to barn.. she also said that when she left Spencer was sound asleep
I believe it was later stated that Melissa was calling Garrett when she says, “what do I have to do dial 911 to get your attention.” Because he was a cop.
Depending on what part of Georgia Alison’s grandma is, they could be right by Hilton Head. Savannah, GA has a bridge that goes over the Savannah River, which makes South Carolina and Hilton head like a 20 ish minute
I was looking for this comment! I was like if her grandma lived in Savannah, Hilton head is not that far and Savannah is literally such a big city it’s probable she could live there!!!!!
9:47 confuses me. I thought Alison didn't check in at The Lost Woods resort as Vivian until after Mona found her on the road with blood trailing down the side of her head. Mona did say "I put the room under the name you told me to. Vivian Darkbloom." It was something like that.
I feel like we should’ve gotten an entire episode (similar to the throwback to halloween before Ali’s disappearance ) that is just the events of that day, in order, and some extra fluff thrown in the fill in the gaps. Would’ve been great.
OMG you did amazing with every single detail. Yellow tops are hard to find lol. I actually do have a yellow top, not an exact replica because mine is yellow with black dots but still love it. I also have a yellow swimsuit and yellow sleep shorts.
Heey, love your pll deepdives! And honestly, one of the things i love about the show is that after yearrss of watching rewatching it and recaps and going down rabbit holes, looking for answers and all that, i'm still finding out new stuff and have many things that i'm just connecting... mindblowing. and i love that there are other people just as obsessed as i am, thank you for that haha
I think I would’ve liked if the show started with Allison dealing with A alone and then Allison is dead, us as viewers assume A killed her and then they go for the girls and the show carries on as it is. I always liked the flash backs of Ali before going missing
This video is so wonderful, cause I watched the shows from around the end of season 1 up until season 5 or so, as it aired, and I had forgotten SO many details as the years passed. Haven't seen seasons 6 or 7 either. But having you put all of the pieces together in place is so fun to watch. And now that I've decided to start the show from the beginning, it may help ensure I understand everything going on.
OMG! THIS IS TOO CRAZY!! I had this idea a few months ago and told my sister I wished the someone would go through the entire night she disappeared AND clip all the scenes together in chronological order so you could watch from start to finish !!!!
haha i love your description of hilton head as a golf club 😂😂 hilton head is actually an island, off the coast of south carolina. it’s like a whole city, but it’s mainly a town where people go on holiday. i think there are a few, or maybe a lot idk lol, of golf courses and country clubs there, and i’m sure that a lot of people do go there to golf. but it’s a really popular holiday destination for families bc there’s a lot of resorts and shopping and tourist stuff to do. there’s a lot of nice beaches and a lot of people get around the town on bikes that they rent. it’s really nice haha i have only been once but i live in cincinnati, ohio and i hear about people going to hilton head all the time lol but i’m also kind of obsessed with your description of hilton head bc it’s great haha anyway sorry for the novel but thought i’d comment for the algorithm and to tell you to put hilton head on your usa bucket list because you’d love it!! and i’m only five minutes into the video but i am a big fan so far lol
Would love to see a pre-disappearance video Wasn't Ali 14 when she was with Ezra? Bc when Aria comes back she's 16, the year before then Ali went missing during summer, and it was the summer before that one Ali was with CeCe&Wilden&Jason wherever on that boat?
@@sarahgolley4086she wasn’t 15. When Aria comes back it’s the girls junior year. When Ali went missing it was before their freshman year. You have to remember that Aria was gone for a year
@@Jessica.ShawnteThe show has a lot of discrepancies because I’m watching PLL S3 right now and Paige said that Ali bullied her through freshmen year. But Ali went missing before freshmen year right? Aria returns before sophomore year starts and her body is found. I want to say that the girls were 16, so Ali went missing when she was 15🤷🏾♀️
@@Yazyyaunna seasons 1-3 is their junior year. Another way to tell is Aria & Mike are 2 years apart. He was a freshman when they came back because when Mona “died” they were seniors so Mike would have to be a sophomore. Another way to tell is the season after Mya dies starts in their last days of summer they became seniors
PLL was the show that taught me that apparently in the US (at least in some states), children as young as like 15 are allowed to drive cars lol I remember being so confused and later looking it up on the internet
19:00 from what i remember she went to georgia to try to convince her grandma to take jason out of her will which is why there was a possible motive for jason to kill ali, also the flight from south carolina to pennsylvania in duncan’s plane probably would’ve been shorter than a regular airport flight
How is all of this happening in a summer night?? Winter maybe I could believe but apparently in Philadelphia sunrise is 5:30am and sunset is 8:30pm in summer??????
I saw a new PLL video With Alison in the title and I DROPPED everything I was doing to watch this. Perfect video, thank you for your hard work! I'm sick and this is exactly what I needed today! 🥺💞💞 And I would also love to see a video of pre-disappearence Alison's life, it was quite eventful!
Literally!!!! I just left a comment about it. I hated that they made her both red coat and black widow to this day. Like why would she agree to work with Cece?? She didnt even know the girls and what was she doing for more than 2 years??🙄🤦
Maybe Ali's first A was Jenna not Mona, and Sydney&Shana joined in when they heard about Ali blinding Jenna, but they were only in on the A texts at this point they weren't ride or die for Jenna yet which is why Jenna uses Ian to go confront/get revenge on Ali
The fact that this whole video is about her disappearance is crazy, I think people actually forget how much of an impact her disappearance had on the story; not just in season one but throughout the series
Also isn’t Sarah Harvey involved in this night too? She went missing around the same time bc cece kidnapped her which would make no sense since cece wasn’t A until she stole the game from mona in season 3. God the plot holes from this night are so big lmaooooo
@@sarahgolley4086 Yeah, I do think Sara's telling the truth when she talks about running away because she had a hard life and felt unloved by her mother, but she was definitely not underground for two years lol
I like to think Allison went home to confront her final suspect Jessica, but Charlotte shows up thinking it was Bethany before Allison confronted her. And Mona/Melissa + Charlotte/Jessica essentially did strangers on a train without even realising it with Charlotte/Jessica nearly killing Allison and Mona/Melissa actually killing Bethany.
I drive from DC to Hilton Head every summer. It's about a 10 hour drive, around 500 miles. Hilton Head is about 30 miles from Savannah Georgia. So she very well could have been in Georgia.
I am from Hilton head it is an island and popular vacation spot it does have lots of plantations and golf courses, the heritage (a big golf tournament) takes place here every year.
Imagine someone interested in true crime who never watched pll sees this and thinks Alison Dilaurentis is an actual missing person
Im pretty sure they would go to internet and google would show well the show.

Cuz when Aria comes back and meets Ezra she’s 16 and it’s the start of her junior year of high school, so the summer before they would’ve all been 15. I suppose it’s possible Mona had recently turned 16, but given her level of intelligence you think she would’ve tested into Kindergarten when she was 5 instead of having to wait until she turned 6 to start…
in my state you can get your learners permit when you turn 15 and can get your license at 15 and a half so idk what the driving laws are like in Pennsylvania but she could’ve been driving anyway by using her parents car or her own car that she drives anyway even though she doesn’t have a license
Usually Sophmores in high school are 15-16 and juniors are 16-17, so Mona is probably in the older age of students in the class
Iirc someone can be 15 in Pennsylvania when they get their license but I'm not sure.
I wanted an episode dedicated to this so bad, thanks for putting this together 🫡
Alison did everything that night, her schedule was CRAZY but can we talk about how Marlene wrote Alison and Ian's story with him tapping a minor and we all were cool with it??
How much of this could have been avoided if people just checked whether or not the person they bonked/found bonked was still breathing
Or double checked who they were burying to cover for someone else
The fact alis mom started burying her right away without any doubt is crazy… HER OWN DAUGHTER💀
@@avafurgele7899 For real. 💀 I guess Jessica cared more about Charlotte than Alison? Because to her Charlotte was her other child and Alison was a headache maybe? Lol Even so, WILD!
BONKED
901 (September 1st) was labor day weekend 2008. I think the writers had forgotten that Alison was missing for about a year before the show started so they used labor day of 2009. That's the only reason I can think of the wonky dates
Oh this makes so much more sense!
i was watching this video and when you mentioned that you were working on a video explaining the hastings/dilaurentis/drake family tree, i literally said, out loud, "hUh? girl- good luck, i could never". in all seriousness though- the amount of effort you put into these videos in INSANE and i love them
Thank you so much!!
2 things from an american, in relation to around 20:00 :
1. how long it takes to go from georgia to south carolina depends on where you're going in each state. idk if in PLL it ever says specifically where in these states Alison was meant to be, but georgia and south carolina border each other, so technically it could be a five minute drive if you're going from the edge of georgia to the edge of south carolina. there's some towns that are even located in both states, split right down the middle :)
2. i know british people don't see it this way, but an hour and a half is NOT a long commute for us americans, lol. i know several people who have to drive an hour and a half every morning to get to work (which is incredibly depressing, but it puts into context how spending 1.5 hours traveling is no big deal to us. it's because everything is so far apart here.) i have to drive an hour to get into my nearest big city, and that's a short drive to me. if i'm driving into the city for a party i'm like "oh, it's only an hour drive!" so an hour and a half long plane ride wouldn't be a big deal, other than that they were in a small plane and you might need to refuel when you land.
This is so interesting!!
It’s insane to think about how much stemmed from this day given how horrible the writers were with continuity 😂 like Sydney for example doesn’t come into the show until s4-s5 but she was behind the scenes for years before that
also shana, she was her grandma’s neighbor in georgia 😭 and on top of that it’s implied that she only got the NAT videos this day but had been using them as blackmail before. So had she seen them before? had she just heard ian or jason talk about them? was she in on Ian filming her/the girls for them?
@@bestmelikesshe prob knew about them but decided to weaponize them to get rid of A
She didn't know about the videos before, she just looked in Toby's window and totally misjudged what was happening.
Can we PLEASE stop and just R E A L I Z E how murderous the girls (but people in general, too) in Rosewood were?! I cannot even phantom that, but also the fact that even SPENCER wanted to swing at Alison??? Plus - what do you think Spencer was doing between her talking with Ali and then coming to the barn and telling the girls she heard a scream???
does hannah kill anyone? i know she was willing to kill lucas on the boat just can’t remember if she does off anyone through the tv series
@@trashsince99 she kills elliot and noel
@@Aleksandra-gw7vvWHEN
@@CoriBeth01well Elliot was an accident she was driving the car that hit and killed him and noel fell on that axe all on his own so i say she didn't do it
Ali said that after her and Spencer fought and found the drugs that she brought her back to barn.. she also said that when she left Spencer was sound asleep
I believe it was later stated that Melissa was calling Garrett when she says, “what do I have to do dial 911 to get your attention.” Because he was a cop.
33:41 was literally thinking “her makeup looks amazinngg today” and then you did the close up and I was like hell yeah girl, get iiittt!
SAME haha I was looking for this comment
Depending on what part of Georgia Alison’s grandma is, they could be right by Hilton Head. Savannah, GA has a bridge that goes over the Savannah River, which makes South Carolina and Hilton head like a 20 ish minute
38 miles apart
I was looking for this comment! I was like if her grandma lived in Savannah, Hilton head is not that far and Savannah is literally such a big city it’s probable she could live there!!!!!
currently rewatching pll on the og dvd set & this is perfect timing to remember how insane this show was lmao thank you for this!
9:47 confuses me. I thought Alison didn't check in at The Lost Woods resort as Vivian until after Mona found her on the road with blood trailing down the side of her head. Mona did say "I put the room under the name you told me to. Vivian Darkbloom." It was something like that.
Wish they did more detailed episodes on the flash back stories and the summer camp 😭🙌🏼
Yes me too!!!
I feel like we should’ve gotten an entire episode (similar to the throwback to halloween before Ali’s disappearance ) that is just the events of that day, in order, and some extra fluff thrown in the fill in the gaps. Would’ve been great.
This is one of the most impressive things I’ve seen anyone do. Your videos are so engaging.
Thank you so much!! 🩷
re everyone being in the dilaurentis house
i imagine jessica was going round the neighbourhood with wilden looking for cece
just a thought???
OMG you did amazing with every single detail. Yellow tops are hard to find lol.
I actually do have a yellow top, not an exact replica because mine is yellow with black dots but still love it. I also have a yellow swimsuit and yellow sleep shorts.
duudeee dat sounds so cute - yellow’s such a pretty color 💙
I’ve been waiting for someone to make a video focused solely on the day of her disappearance cause till this day I am so confused about it 💀
Heey, love your pll deepdives! And honestly, one of the things i love about the show is that after yearrss of watching rewatching it and recaps and going down rabbit holes, looking for answers and all that, i'm still finding out new stuff and have many things that i'm just connecting... mindblowing. and i love that there are other people just as obsessed as i am, thank you for that haha
🩷🩷🩷
I think I would’ve liked if the show started with Allison dealing with A alone and then Allison is dead, us as viewers assume A killed her and then they go for the girls and the show carries on as it is. I always liked the flash backs of Ali before going missing
This video is so wonderful, cause I watched the shows from around the end of season 1 up until season 5 or so, as it aired, and I had forgotten SO many details as the years passed. Haven't seen seasons 6 or 7 either. But having you put all of the pieces together in place is so fun to watch. And now that I've decided to start the show from the beginning, it may help ensure I understand everything going on.
OMG! THIS IS TOO CRAZY!! I had this idea a few months ago and told my sister I wished the someone would go through the entire night she disappeared AND clip all the scenes together in chronological order so you could watch from start to finish !!!!
What a crazy night it was! Thank you for this video, I could never sort this out by myself
I need you and mikes mic to collaborate now because these whiteboards are giving me life
love your videos especially the PLL ones!
haha i love your description of hilton head as a golf club 😂😂 hilton head is actually an island, off the coast of south carolina. it’s like a whole city, but it’s mainly a town where people go on holiday. i think there are a few, or maybe a lot idk lol, of golf courses and country clubs there, and i’m sure that a lot of people do go there to golf. but it’s a really popular holiday destination for families bc there’s a lot of resorts and shopping and tourist stuff to do. there’s a lot of nice beaches and a lot of people get around the town on bikes that they rent. it’s really nice haha i have only been once but i live in cincinnati, ohio and i hear about people going to hilton head all the time lol but i’m also kind of obsessed with your description of hilton head bc it’s great haha anyway sorry for the novel but thought i’d comment for the algorithm and to tell you to put hilton head on your usa bucket list because you’d love it!! and i’m only five minutes into the video but i am a big fan so far lol
To be fair, the little pass on the lanyard says HILTON HEAD in huge letters so the resort name is easily missed 🤣
oh my god i am SO excited to watch this video!! thank you, lauren ❤
“…i don’t know if anyone would be interested in that…” me: returning for my 9th breakdown of this show, this week, to make it make sense…
knowing that the series is based off of a book series and that the girls were 12 YEARS OLD when ali disappeared keeps me up at night
I'm guessing that the show changed that so that Alison could still be "queen bee of high school" before she disappeared.
Was she pregnant from Ian at 12
@ no she was never pregnant in the books and in the show she thought she was pregnant from wilden
@@shivamkamil1581 interestingly enough ali was never the queen bee nor did she know the girls. the ali that they knew and were friends with wasn’t ali
@@mustachemarshmallow8933 "still be" was a poor choice of words on my part, I meant "become".
This deserves way more views than it has
Mike's mic is having a fucking aneurysm rn
an HOUR??? finally someone who gets me. instant sub.
🩷
Ahh I’ve been hoping someone would piece this all together! Love it!
Thank you! ❤️
Would love to see a pre-disappearance video
Wasn't Ali 14 when she was with Ezra? Bc when Aria comes back she's 16, the year before then Ali went missing during summer, and it was the summer before that one Ali was with CeCe&Wilden&Jason wherever on that boat?
Ali disappeared at 15. I don't know how long she was seeing Ezra though
14-15. Ezra is a horrible person.
@@sarahgolley4086she wasn’t 15. When Aria comes back it’s the girls junior year. When Ali went missing it was before their freshman year. You have to remember that Aria was gone for a year
@@Jessica.ShawnteThe show has a lot of discrepancies because I’m watching PLL S3 right now and Paige said that Ali bullied her through freshmen year. But Ali went missing before freshmen year right? Aria returns before sophomore year starts and her body is found. I want to say that the girls were 16, so Ali went missing when she was 15🤷🏾♀️
@@Yazyyaunna seasons 1-3 is their junior year. Another way to tell is Aria & Mike are 2 years apart. He was a freshman when they came back because when Mona “died” they were seniors so Mike would have to be a sophomore. Another way to tell is the season after Mya dies starts in their last days of summer they became seniors
I’m just saying the writers really made their life more difficult with this day
It was a busy day
how was this an hour long i feel like this was 10 minutes im gonna need more pll content
Not enough people stringing that timeline together. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
PLL was the show that taught me that apparently in the US (at least in some states), children as young as like 15 are allowed to drive cars lol I remember being so confused and later looking it up on the internet
Omg this is soooooo COOL!!!!! I love PLL I’m so happy someone made a vid like this!!!!!!💖💖💖💖💖
19:00 from what i remember she went to georgia to try to convince her grandma to take jason out of her will which is why there was a possible motive for jason to kill ali, also the flight from south carolina to pennsylvania in duncan’s plane probably would’ve been shorter than a regular airport flight
Now I just need someone to do a video about the Never Ending November!
Bc the girlies needed this one 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
How is all of this happening in a summer night?? Winter maybe I could believe but apparently in Philadelphia sunrise is 5:30am and sunset is 8:30pm in summer??????
i love this!! it makes it so much clearer for me, can’t wait for the next one i love all your pll videos🩷
Thank you so much!! 🩷
I saw a new PLL video With Alison in the title and I DROPPED everything I was doing to watch this. Perfect video, thank you for your hard work! I'm sick and this is exactly what I needed today! 🥺💞💞 And I would also love to see a video of pre-disappearence Alison's life, it was quite eventful!
Thank you so much! I hope you feel better! I have added the pre-disappearance video to my to-do list ❤️
Phenomenal work, can’t wait for the Hastings/Dilaurentis/Drake family tree 🤯
How about this weekend? 🤫
Didn’t Sara Harvey disappear around the same time Ali did? Like she worked with Cece but cece wasn’t A back then. I never understood that part.
Sara Harvey was a plot hole
So was Bethany Young 😬
I'm pretty sure she also made herself dissappear and CeCe used her to confuse people and change the plot
@@sarahgolley4086 I try to pretend that plot hole doesn't exist. Doesn't always work but a girl can dream 😁
Literally!!!! I just left a comment about it. I hated that they made her both red coat and black widow to this day. Like why would she agree to work with Cece?? She didnt even know the girls and what was she doing for more than 2 years??🙄🤦
so so glad that this found its way into my recommended!!!!
Finally a definitive timeline
Yes please , please do the predisappearance video
This is the content I need to see when I first open TH-cam 🎉🎉🎉
😊
thank u for your service omg
Your eyeshadow slayed
Maybe Ali's first A was Jenna not Mona, and Sydney&Shana joined in when they heard about Ali blinding Jenna, but they were only in on the A texts at this point they weren't ride or die for Jenna yet which is why Jenna uses Ian to go confront/get revenge on Ali
The fact that this whole video is about her disappearance is crazy, I think people actually forget how much of an impact her disappearance had on the story; not just in season one but throughout the series
i would so be interested in a before allisons disapeerance video!
I've put it on my to-do list!
This video is so iconic u don’t even understand
You should do a video on Serena van der woodsen when she was in boarding school . I don’t know the time line for that either .
Omg that's such a good idea!
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH!!!
Also isn’t Sarah Harvey involved in this night too? She went missing around the same time bc cece kidnapped her which would make no sense since cece wasn’t A until she stole the game from mona in season 3. God the plot holes from this night are so big lmaooooo
I think it's safe to assume Sara lied about when she met CeCe. We already know she lied about being in the bunker for two years.
I think Sara disappeared herself for home life reasons (also remember her friends didn't like her) and somewhere along the way was picked up by cece
@@sarahgolley4086 Yeah, I do think Sara's telling the truth when she talks about running away because she had a hard life and felt unloved by her mother, but she was definitely not underground for two years lol
This work is truly impeccable 🎉
You 🤝 mikes mic
perfection🤝🏻🧚🏼❤️
This show is so unhinged
always important to be kind and respectful to people! especially when fixing or handling a mistake
I like to think Allison went home to confront her final suspect Jessica, but Charlotte shows up thinking it was Bethany before Allison confronted her.
And Mona/Melissa + Charlotte/Jessica essentially did strangers on a train without even realising it with Charlotte/Jessica nearly killing Allison and Mona/Melissa actually killing Bethany.
I can’t believe I watched pretty little liars for YEARS and never knew Alison disappeared on my birthday that’s crazy
I appreciate the effort !!
Melissa was looking for Spencer when she entered Ali's room
This makes nore sense
I drive from DC to Hilton Head every summer. It's about a 10 hour drive, around 500 miles. Hilton Head is about 30 miles from Savannah Georgia. So she very well could have been in Georgia.
The amount of people she saw that Labor Day Weekend, girl was booked, busy and blackmailing everybody, drugging her BFFs and still got played by Mona
Clicked for the subject, stayed for the 2002 high school printer quality photos and the random board attacks 😂❤🎉
more like the day that alison wore the yellow top ☝️😭
Truly!!
Wilden is a vampire that’s the only was he makes sense
So basically Allison blackmailed before the A situation, but began hardcore blackmailing because of A
love u for this, okay? okay ♡
I am from Hilton head it is an island and popular vacation spot it does have lots of plantations and golf courses, the heritage (a big golf tournament) takes place here every year.
I just refuse to believe that the odds 2 girls are buried in the same backyard wearing the same top on the same night are that big
