There’s always been characters that danced back and forth between possible ‘A-Team’ accomplices and potential victims of the ‘A-Team’s’ twisted agenda. Jenna Marshall (Tammin Sursok), Melissa Hastings (Torrey DeVitto), Jason DiLaurentis (Drew Van Acker), Ian Thomas (Ryan Merriman), and Garrett Reynolds (Yani Gellman) definitely top that list, but there are a slew of supporting characters that remain questionable.
The Liars have been on the wrong side of Jenna before, but it looks like there might be less ‘A’ attached to her actions then everyone guessed. Jenna was blinded by a prank fire set by Alison that the Liars sat aimlessly by for. That would be enough motive for most people to seek revenge, yet there’s always been this odd connection to the N.A.T. (“We See Everything”) club that’s been left mostly unexplained.
Two out of three of the official members of the club are now dead – Ian and Garrett. At least they’re dead in the vain of soap opera deaths. The final scene of the season 3 finale made it pretty clear that a deceased gentleman would be resurrected in the upcoming season. This means that we might be seeing one of them again since there’s always a possibility that it may have been a flashback.
The only living member of the club, Jason, is now missing. He very well could be in Detective Wilden’s (Bryce Johnson) trunk given his lack of face time since the elevator incident, and the fact that Wilden might have something to do with whatever happened to Ali. However, that still leaves Jenna and Melissa, who have some undisclosed relationship to the club’s unsanctioned extracurricular activities.
I like to consider these side players to be the official ‘B-Squad.’ Right now it appears that the ‘A-Team’ and the ‘B-Squad’ are preparing to face-off. The finale set it up perfectly. If the ‘A-Team’ had all the intentions of ending things before the different factions screwed everything up, then the ‘B-Squad’ were clearly the agitators or in this case the fire starters. This kind of seems like poetic justice considering Jenna’s history with the Liars.
Almost burning the girls alive seems like a pretty bold first move for these second tier evil doers, it’s anyone’s guess as to what their follow up will be.
