Pretty Little Liars 2 - Season

Season 2 deconstructs the "perfect" facade of Rosewood. The town is revealed to be a place where every adult has a skeleton in the closet, from Peter Hastings’ infidelity to the clandestine activities at the Radley Sanitarium.

One of the standout aspects of Season 2 is the introduction of new characters, including Jenna Marshall (Tammin Sursok), a rival of Alison's who becomes a suspect in the mystery, and Mike Montgomery (Noah W.

The Twist Within the Twist

Just when the Liars think they’ve won—Mona is arrested and committed to the Radley Sanitarium—the show delivers its most devastating gut punch.
