Why We Thought She Was "A":
- Some of Hanna's behavior in season five is so suspicious. How does she know where Mona's tape is? Why is the storage unit in her name? And how does she concoct such an expert plan to break into it?
- We know Mona's assailant is possibly blond (or wearing a wig). Could it just be Hanna? Was Mona going to betray her?
- Hanna was so close to Mona while she was alive. In fact, she visits Mona frequently in Radley. Could she have taken the game from Mona? Could they have been working together at various points?
- Time and time again, we've grown to realize Hanna is smarter than we think she is. Clearly, we might have underestimated her.
- If "A" is one of the girls, Hanna has the biggest motive. Ali used to terrorize her for being overweight. Maybe there was a point where she just got fed up and decided to take action.
Why We Figured She Wasn't "A":
- As we mentioned before, given the dollhouse circumstances, it's pretty hard for any of the girls to be "A." Hanna looks as damaged as everyone else.
- Why would Hanna willingly sabotage her mom in so many ways? Ashley Marin is almost incarcerated for the murder of Wilden. We get hating Ali, but hating her own mother? It's far-fetched.
- If Hanna is "A," the last thing she'd do is put a storage unit in her name. Just saying.
- Hanna's had her fair share of "A" scares. So unless someone else is working against her, she can't be the head honcho.
