In the pilot episode, we first we meet Aria, who has just returned to town after spending a year overseas. She's trying to deal with the fact that her dad had recently cheated on her mom with one of his ex-students at the college, while keeping her mom from finding out. And, at the same time she can't ignore the intense chemistry with Ezra Fitz - Aria's English teacher, who she sort of accidentally made out with once.
Then there is Hanna, who recently transformed herself from a chubby awkward girl into the current "It girl." She gets caught shoplifting, but the charges are dropped when her mother steps in - eager to keep her own reputation and the image of her daughter untarnished.
Spencer is a perfectionist and straight-A student whose pressure to stand out in her overachieving family leaves her feeling alone... until she finds understanding in the unlikeliest of places...
Emily is an athlete who finds herself drawn to her new neighbor, Maya, a free spirit who recently moved into her friend's old house across the street.
When each girl receives an anonymous text message, their lives picturesque suburban community suddenly seems far from perfect as secrets, lies and betrayals threaten everything they hold dear.
