‘Pretty Little Liars’ Finale: How a Mystery Hid Its Villain<br />I hoped we dropped enough Easter eggs so that people are either like, “Oh, I had it right,” or, “I almost had it right.” In Sara Shepard’s books, Allison was a twin, and it played such a big part of the books<br />that we always wanted to do at least one twin on the show.<br />Needless to say, there are spoilers ahead, so any readers who don’t want to know the identity of A. D., the latest “A,” — or why<br />the show’s sex scenes became more revealing, or which plot points provoked the angriest viewer reactions — should turn back now.<br />One was, these girls — at the time they were girls, then they became young women — are going to be unconditional friends no matter what.<br />If we had more seasons to come, I think I would do everything I could to promote<br />positive gay role models, people accepting people being gay and transgender.<br />I think of transgender characters the same way I think of gay characters and straight characters — as if we’re all equal.<br />I. Marlene King has learned a lot about secrecy and lying during her tenure as the showrunner for the hit whodunit-soap “Pretty Little Liars,” an addictive mystery about a group of high school friends threatened, blackmailed<br />and tortured by a rotation of anonymous villains identifying themselves as “A.” (When one “A” is unmasked, another emerges.)<br />So when it came to having sex as Alex Drake, she’s probably more take-charge than we would ever see Spencer be — less tender, more aggressive.<br />If I had known in Season 4 or 5 what Season 7 ultimately was going to be, it would have been great to see Alex Drake in our world a few more times.<br />I got a little nervous about a month or two ago, because it seemed to be the most popular theory, but then it just became one of many theories.
