Does anyone else wonder why Mona's mom was seen leaving Principal Hackett's office then shortly after lied to Mona saying she was dropping off stuff in the cafeteria?
Then soon after, Alison gets called to the Principal's Office.
I think Mona's mom was trying to find out how Ali was affecting Mona at school.
But on a more meta-level, why would the writer's choose to include Mona's mom in this episode when we've barely (if ever) have seen her in any other episode? Â I know one reason could be to add pathos to Mona's death, but I think Mona's mom may play a bigger role in the future. Â I'm not saying she is A or had anything to do with Mona's death, but I think she may try and help the other girls figure the mystery out or at least band their moms together. Â In that way, Mona's death would not be in vein because it would initiate her mother's quest to help the girls find A.
Thoughts?
Edit:Â ok again, not saying Mona's mom is A or has anything to do with Mona's death but it's odd that she was wearing a Red Coat when Mona saw her off to the Thanksgiving dinner. Â I just noticed that as I'm rewatching the episode right now. Â The symbolism of that is quite powerful. Â I really hope she'll help the girls bust A soon!
