On Halloween in 1999, Angela’s “friends” (the Liars’ mothers) force her to throw dog poo on someone’s door. But they throw Angela under the bus as they leave without her, which presumably means Angela gets caught. In the current timeline, the Liars speculate on what their mothers did and whether or not they should disobey A. Henry tells Faran that Kelly has a scar on her foot; does that mean Kelly is Karen? Faran voices his concerns to Madame Giry, but Madame Giry tells him that Kelly has a history of self-harm before strongly advising Faran that she drop her claims.

Tabbu goes to see Wes for his final paycheck and he accuses him of ghosting him. But Tabby calls her out for trying to kiss her. So, Wes apologizes and offers Tabby his job. The mouse tells her mother that she will go out on Halloween because she is going to a party. When Faran speaks with Kelly, she notices that she has a scar on her hand; so Faran asks Kelly if she is hurting herself.

As for the party, Tyler tries it with Faran. Elsewhere, A also attends the party and they put on the pumpkin mask that Angela wore in 1999. Imogen bumps into A but seems too scared to say anything. A watches Faran and Henry kiss. After Noa takes a ride or a ride with Steve, who likes when she calls him “daddy”, she asks him to take her to the party. But Noa, or Rachel as Steve calls her, is unaware when a figure walks past. Back at the party, Kelly and Greg kiss; does that mean she’s Karen?

Chip tells Tabby that he got an extension on their movie so she could remake the movie; Tabby agrees, although she adds that they will need a new Norman Bates, aka not Greg. Finally, Faran accuses Kelly of being Karen. Instead, Kelly gets upset that people can’t believe Kelly could be anything great.

At home, Kelly tells her mother that she will play the main role. but even her mother mistakes her for Karen.
