Then back in episode 3x01 (one of the episodes I.Marlene King said we should rewatch for clues) Spencer visits Garrett in jail for the first time.*
Spencer:*“You said that you would tell me the truth, so what is it?”
Garrett:*“There’s a lot you don’t know, Spencer. Some of it you don’t want to know. And if there’s any chance of me getting a fair trial in this town…. everybody already thinks I’m guilty.. I don’t know anything about Maya but I might know who killed Alison.” (Melissa?)
And in episode 3x02 when Spencer visits Garrett in jail a second time he begs her to get her mom to be his lawyer but Spencer tells him no, she needs more information from him before she or anybody else can trust him. He finally says to her,*“Spencer, someone that you know well has you completely fooled. People lie but… medical records don’t.”
And next thing we know, Veronica takes Garrett’s case pro bono, without pay, and ends up getting him off scotch-free. Until he gets murder in 3x13 on the Ghost Train. Why would Veronica take Garrett’s murder case? What did Garrett *blackmail the Hastings family with? Did he see something else*“That Night” that he didn’t share? Did he see Cece hit Ali and Melissa help cover it up?
Then flash forward to 4x04 when the Hanna finds this poster board of everyone in Rosewood in Holbrook’s office. Notice that it says*“medical records” on Melissa’s photo. A little weird and suspicious…
Oh, and remember this? Melissa once said to Spencer,*“I will never forgive you for this.” back in the second season.
I definitely don’t think she would have covered up a murder for as long as she did for her sister… she’s hiding protecting somebody else.
And Alison knew how Melissa felt about Spencer all along, she hinted at it in 2x23 when she visited Spencer for the first time since going*‘missing’.*
The Liars also find the mask shop that made all of the famous Alison’s masks back in 4x04 after Hanna finds the police board. It turns out that Alison got paid to have her face masked by an artist named Hector.*
Aria, Emily, and Hanna visit him at his shop and are asking him questions when Hanna finds another familiar face as a mask. Melissa Hastings.
Spencer takes the mask home and ponders it for awhile, and then Melissa knocks on her bedroom door. She comes inside Spencer’s*room and they talk for awhile.*
What does it all mean? Okay,*‘A’.*
Then she says to Spencer,*“you asked me a question once, if it came down to protecting you or somebody else, somebody I loved, who would I pick? Do you remember? What would your answer be if I asked you the same question? If you had to choose, what would you do?”
In 4x05 Spencer confronts Melissa about the masks.
Spencer:*“You asked Shana about where somebody could get a mask like that? You wanted to know if Alison came here and ordered it?”
Melissa:*“I wanted to know when it was made.”
Spencer:*“Before or after Ali disappeared?”
Melissa:*“Don’t tell me you haven’t thought about it yourself.”
Spencer:*“What? That Ali is still alive? I have but it’s crazy.”*
Melissa:*“Crazier than anything else that’s happened?”
All this time she had believed that she killed Alison and once she figured out that Alison was still alive she started getting worried. If she didn’t kill Ali, then who did she kill? Whose body did she bury? Where is Alison now? What does Ali know? Melissa did not tell Spencer that she knew Alison was alive because Melissa was still trying to track down Ali secretly. It was only once she realized that she needed the Liars to lead her to Alison that she told Spencer she suspected Ali was alive in 4x04.*
And THIS is right around the same time that*“A” starts taunting the Liars with messages about finding Alison… such as this from 4x15.*
Hide and seek was Spencer’s favorite game to play with Melissa…
Then there’s this. In 5x09 Emily finds a recording and some photos in Noel’s car of one of Alison and Shana’s phone calls from the time Alison was missing. Spencer confronts Noel and he tells her that it’s his “insurance” just in case Alison decides to betray him. He asks for the recording and photos back but Spencer says no and that she promises she’ll keep it in a secret place and that the Liars need insurance against Ali too. Spencer then decides in 5x10 to hide the recording and pictures in her*hiding spot which is underneath the cushions of her red chair in her bedroom and it turns out, isn’t so much of a secret place. It’s the same hiding spot that Spencer used to hide the recording of Alison’s medical exam that she gave to the Liars back in 5x03. And when Spencer goes to hide Noel’s things there, she notices that 'A’ stole Ali’s recording… and Melissa certainly had access to Spencer’s bedroom. In fact, right after Spencer discovers that Ali’s recording is gone, Melissa walks into her bedroom.
Melissa:*“Need any help?”
Spencer:*“I thought you left already.”*
Melissa:*“We forgot the grocery list. Looking for something or are you just redecorating?”
Two seconds later, Spencer’s phone rings and Melissa grabs it and hands it to her. When Spencer answers the phone all she hears is the missing Ali recording playing in her ear, teasing her. When Spencer finally hangs up the phone Melissa asks her,*“Is something wrong?” Now, that’s only suspicious to me because during this entire scene with Spencer, Melissa is holding and playing with her own phone and the director focuses on it. Weird coincidence, if you ask me…
OH and let’s not forget*when Spencer went to London on college interviews in 5x21 and somehow had a tube of blood break in her bag that she figured was planted by ‘A’. The only people we knew that were in London were Melissa and Wren and Spencer was staying at their apartment, after all.. Melissa certainly would have had access to her sisters bag.
Bottom line, Melissa is my prime ‘A’ suspect. She is the only constant character that’s tangled in everything.

Melissa is A.D. Don't @ me.
