TV Fanatic: Marlene King Speaks About the Summer Finale, the betrAyer, Mona, Shipper News and PDS

TV Fanatic recently spoke to Marlene King about the summer finale, the betrAyer, shipper news, Mona and also Pretty Dirty Secrets as well!
 
On the show stressing out the audience
"Good! I’m glad to hear that! [Tonight’s] episode will definitely drive people crazy, I’m sure of it."
On what we'll find out about Paige in the summer finale
"On Twitter, I see these people have a theory that it definitely can’t be Paige because we wouldn’t make it that easy - but you never know, we might just change things up, too. On last-week's episode, we launched full-throttle to the girls thinking that Paige is ‘A’ and the finale starts with an intervention of the PLL’s trying to convince Emily that Paige is dangerous. Emily is divided from them for the rest of the episode for that reason. She even has a line in the episode where she says ‘Three against one, A wins.'"
On whether the audience should not trust the PLLs
"They’re on the suspect board, so you never know!"
On whether the Emily/Nate kiss was a question of sexuality, or just about Maya
"That was truly about Maya. That was just a real, emotional moment for those two characters. I feel like Emily just showed some vulnerability in that moment and probably felt closer to Maya because of it."
On whether Nate's anger will develop in the future and lead to something else 
"It’s safe to say that every person in Rosewood has a secret and eventually we will exploit and explore on this show." 
On who Jenna was referring to when she warned Emily in 3x11
"You will definitely find out a little more about that."
On whether we'll see different sides to Jenna in the summer finale
"Maybe. Maybe not. I don’t want to give anything away. I wish I could be more honest but I’ll have to say maybe, maybe not."
On Hanna and Wren's relationship
"I think it’s more that Julian is so charming. We just love him here. Wren is still around."
On whether Wren being around in Rosewood related with Mona
"I’m just going to wait and let you watch and find out."
On Spoby in the summer finale
"They’re going to have a beautiful reunion in [the finale]. It’s really like one of those sweeping Hallmark cards with 360 degree shots. It’s a real magic moment for that couple."
On whether the writers are very noticeable when a character is missing from a few episodes
"Yeah, we do. We have a huge cast and to give everybody their fair share of story it’s always like having a lot of balls in the air juggling but we were all thrilled to see Toby march back into Rosewood with that backpack slung over his shoulder. He’s so special to us."
On whether it's a challenge writing Ezria storylines, not tied into the "A" story as such
"So far, we just really wanted to give Ezria some more story and more about Ezra and his character. He has gotten off easy so far and once they were out of the closet, Ezria didn’t really have a secret to hide from and A can only torture you once you have a secret so we will definitely find out more of that storyline and she might start taking advantage of it, too."
On Mona walking out of Radley in the 3x12 promos
"I love it! The Radley Santiarium for the Criminally Insane!"
On Mona's mission
"I think there’s a picture floating around out there with her in that black hoodie so we realize she’s gotten back into her black hoodie closet very quickly. And from the closer of last week’s episode, we established there are two black hoodies and tomorrow night you’re going to find out who those people are."
On whether we will find out who is a member of the "A" team
"It’s not a tease. I think for people who were hoping that the Mona reveal might be more shocking, they’re getting their shock [in the finale]."
On when the scene, with someone having died (sneak peek #1), takes place
"It takes place at the beginning and the end. The episode is one of those that the ending is the very first scene and then we go back in time and then ramp back up to where we started the beginning."
On the new web series Pretty Dirty Secrets
"The Pretty Little Liars are not in the web series but the people that are in it are very important to the story. We get to see these people that we don’t normally get to explore as we’d like to on the show but their involvement in the web series definitely plays a part in what we’ve already seen and what we’ll see in [season] 3B of Pretty Little Liars."
On the Halloween episode
"It’s very much a stand-alone and takes a place a couple weeks after the finale. It’s a thrilling, thrilling episode and Joe Dougherty wrote it and it’s an homage to every scary movie you can imagine. It’s so much fun and we all had such a great time making it that we can’t wait to share it with everyone."
What are you most excited for?
