| Dead of Summer Goes All The Way In |
|
| Freeform |
|
 BECAUSE: It's always the one you least expect: In Tuesday's penultimate episode of Dead of Summer's freshman season, it was revealed that the cause of Camp Stillwater's slayings and occasional bouts of Satanism had been nice girl Amy all along. Well -- maybe nice is the wrong word considering that she killed her parents and brother as a child, killed her friend to get a spot as a Stillwater counselor, and has been violently slaughtering her co-workers culminating in Deb's death on Tuesday night. But hey, what's a girl to do when the only person (thing?) who ever understood her is the demon Malphas who resides in the depths of her camp's lake? |

| Pretty Little Liars |
|
| Freeform |
|
| WHAT HAPPENED: On Tuesday's Pretty Little Liars, we finally learn what Hanna's up to in that creepy newspaper room -- and it ain't good. It seems Hanna is taking the Noel problem into her own hands completely, armed only with duct tape, a video camera, some sketchy pills, and a goodbye message to give to the police in case things go south. They don't exactly, but Hanna's plan to lure Noel to a bar and drug him with a beer bombs when he asks her to sample said beer first. The other Lil' Liars are no slouches back in Rosewood though: Spencer finds the address of Noel's parent's house, where she and Emily immediately go of course, and find a USB full of a mind-boggling amount of videos, including one where Noel is pouring what looks like blood all over an unconscious Spencer. Not great. And with the help of Jason, Aria tracks down adoption records that suggest Noel might be Mary Drake's adopted baby. |
|
| WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING: And just wait until mom hears how the episode ended. Noel heads back to his cabin, where Hanna has apparently been waiting, and she smacks him over the head with a baseball bat and hisses, "It's over, bitch." Is it Hanna? Is it?! But TVLine identified a different moment in Tuesday's episode as "the biggest reveal of the season" -- yes, they're talking about "the good 'ship 'Jaria,' which apparently set sail for a second voyage during the show's five-year time jump." Aria has a flashback to a romantic romp with Jason, and seems to be pulled back in that direction only to have Ezra finally text to say that Nicole wasn't one of those hostages and he's headed back to Rosewood. We're with TVLine on being much more intrigued by "a not-so-distant past where [Aria] and the handsome hipster were hot and heavy." |

| Bachelor in Paradise |
|
| ABC |
|
| WHAT HAPPENED: One couple at a time, Paradise is turning into a dramatic, sweaty hell. Tuesday's episode picks back up on Vinny leaving the show because while he was hearing wedding bells with Izzy, she was hearing the future sobs of their breakup. Everyone is super down because love is dead and all, so the Bachelor crew brings in the big guns: Jade and Tanner, proof that Paradise "works." They interview the existing couples to see who's most likely to go the distance beyond Paradise, and therefore most worthy of receiving a date card. Grant and Lace crash and burn because Grant recently dropped the l-bomb and Lace just isn't feeling it; Amanda and Josh are gross; Evan and Carly try their hardest; but it's Caila and Jared, much to Ashley's dismay, who seal the deal with their robotic luv. Of course, after their date, Ashley goes on a mind-games warpath that leaves Jared questioning if Caila's feelings are as strong for him, and Caila telling Ashley to back up off her relationship. |
|
| WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING: Yeah... good luck with that one, Caila. As YahooTV says in their recap, "All [Ashley] has to do is keep annoying the living hell out of Caila, and eventually Princess Perfect Hair might just decide that staying in Paradise for Jared isn't worth the trouble." And she's already seeming plenty annoyed. And then there's Carly, whose temperament on her sweat lodge date with Evan could best be described as willfully complacent. Carly's sentiment that she doesn't necessarily accept Evan's "crazy" but maybe she "should" caused YahooTV to exclaim, "Girl, there is no should in love -- stop trying to should this relationship into existence!" But we'll have to put a pin in that one because it looks like next week will all tied up with an epic Grant-and-Lace breakdown (or breakup?) and Josh Murray freaking out on... well, everyone. |

| WHAT HAPPENED: Jackson Oz is "unarmed and extremely dangerous." After Abe 'fessed up to him in last week's episode, Jackson went on the run in Helsinki , and it's the Animal Avengers' mission to find him in Tuesday's episode. Abe wants to keep him from going full-mutant, while Mitch knows that they have to have Jackson to incubate the genomic fossil cure. They track him to a hospital where he seems to have been searching for the blood of a woman named Vera. At Vera's house, they only find a parakeet and some bloody tissue... until Jackson dashes out the door and they use the parakeet as a sort of GPS to find him! He's made it to the airport, which they think means he's going to look for his father. Luckily, they also know where Dr. Oz is because Jamie charmed the Russian Minister of Defense into backing off the Noah Objective and tracing a call to Jackson's father. Jackson shows up at the IADG to negotiate with General Davies while his team shows up at Oz's location, only for both of them to discover that Oz is missing. With that knowledge, Davies instructs his men to kill Jackson on site, but someone grabs him just in the nick of time: his father! |
|
| WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING: Man, James Wolk wasn't kidding when he told BuddyTV at San Diego Comic-Con, "There's a lot of family involved in this season." First Jackson found out his father injected him with the ghost gene, then he watched his mother turn into a monster as a result of the same injection, and now his father is saving him. What is going on here?! And let's not forget that at some point in the very near future, Jackson is supposed to go full-mutant. In the same interview with BuddyTV, Wolk said of Jackson's change, "He's obviously going through something big and that's also a big deal for the team to try and stop what's happening to him from happening because they're racing against time." And with three episodes left in season 2, that time seems to be very much running out. |
