Rosewood Returns: Our Top 6 Favorite Revelations from Pretty Little Liars' Season 5 Premiere

Pretty Little Liars ended with a bang last season - literally. Ezra got shot by A, Ali officially returned from the dead, everything was in total, gorgeous chaos; basicially just another day in Rosewood. But oh, did we miss that tragic town during the show's brief hiatus (ABC Family shows are never gone for too long), and we certainly weren't disappointed with our guiltiest pleasure's crazy return. Here are five things we learned from the epic season 5 premiere!

1. Someone finally acknowledges the fact that another girl died in Alison's place: It's a big moment. After the reveal that Ali is actually alive, Melissa, Spencer's probably-evil older sister starts weeping about the mix up involving another family's still-anonymous daughter. Melissa may be sketchy sometimes, but damn, it was about time someone pointed out the fact that, while we knew Ali was 'A' okay, there was definitely a dead girl in her grave the whole time. Then again, if someone on this show cares that much about someone else they don't even know, it probably means they're trying to hude something horrible. But will we ever get more on that deadly switcheroo? 

2. We actually hear A's voice sounds: Maybe, and several A's, at that. As who we think is A corners Ali for an eerie "Wanna play?" horror movie moment, the Liars pop out to catch him/her, thrilled that they've finally got the culprit cornered, but just as they're celebrating success what looks like a dozen masked 'A's pop out to torment the girls before the police come and the hooded creeps escape into the night. Which leads us to our next item on the Psycho Agenda... 

3. Viva La Mona-lucion: Sure, Ali was a Grade-A high school bitch, but Mona has taken revenge to the next level by gathering some of Ali's victims, including Paige and Lucas, to try and remind them how great life was pre-Ali, and how they need to band together to set things right again. She forces the group to reminisce about Ali's choice nicknames (including 'pigskin' and 'lez'), and just as Paige is basically like, 'Guys, this seems a little extreme for, pretty base level high school abuse,' Spencer's sis Melissa storms in, ready to be a part of the plan. We knew her empathy for dead strangers was a total fraud!

4. CeCe Drake has more secrets than maybe anyone: she isn't evil, she isn't Red Coat, she killed Wilden- the list is as endless as she is forgettable when not onscreen. She's been working to protect Ali and the girls this entire time, and to repay her Ali gives her her own get-away tickets and passport so she can escape the Rosewood police. Adieu CeCe, but no one ever leaves Rosewood for long.

5. If you're pretty enough, your hair can stay perfect under any circumstance: Seriously, these girls have been through hell and bAck in the last 24 hours and I can't even get my hair to look that good if I spend hours slaving (and ultimately weeping) over my bathroom counter with a curling iron. Forget A, I want to know what their styling secret is. But at the end of the day, this show isn't called Unkempt Little Liars. I mean, how could be be expected to tolerate these girls if a single hair were out of place?

6. ShAnA: Whoomp, there is is! Cat's out of the bag, lesbian's in the hoodie, however you want to (absurdly) say it;  we have our A. Earlier, Aria had split with her friends to stay at the hospital with the not-actually-evil Ezra and find out from him who A is. At the veeery end of the episode, Aria actually strikes gold when Ezra awakens to spill the beans just in time for Aria to make it to her friends to save them from Shana. Turns out, Shana has been desperately in love with Jenna for years and has been trying to make Ali pay for turning her crush into a target of teenage terrorism. As Shana swings a gun at the girls, Aria sneaks up behind her and smacks her in the face, knocking her off the stage in such a way that she dies right then and there. In one fell swoop, Shana has managed to really hit that dead/evil lesbian cliche nail on the head. With her death, the Liars think they've actually ended their four year battle. Silly girls, this is just the premiere.
