‘Pretty Little Liars’ season 6 spoilers: Happy birthday … Charles?

More scoop -Is Charles DiLaurentis really dead? Our leading ladies on “Pretty Little Liars” have found plenty of evidence suggesting that he may be dead, but there is a glaring problem with some of these theories: The fact that he seems to be coming home for his birthday a little bit later this month.

The July 21 episode of the show (remember, there is no new episode next week) is entitled “O Brother, Where Art Thou,” and Charles is going to be front and center for a story that could be very tense. Kenneth will be desperate to protect both Ali and Jason from this nefarious foe, but whether or not he will be successful in this plight remains to be seen. For now, the only thing in the way of definitive scoop that we have comes courtesy of the official synopsis below:

“There are mixed emotions in the DiLaurentis household when Charles declares he is coming home for his birthday. Mr. DiLaurentis wants to quickly get out of town to hide Ali and Jason from their brother, while Jason sees this as an opportunity to finally validate all of the early childhood memories he has of “Charlie.” The PLLs are just as split with Spencer and Hanna seeing this as the best chance they have to capture Charles, while Emily and Aria want to stay as far from him as possible. Will Jason be reunited with his brother, or is this just another of “A’s” traps?

“Meanwhile, Mona is shutting Mike out and Hanna gets an unwelcomed surprise.”

It is fairly hard to talk at length about some of what this synopsis suggests about Charles, mostly because we assume that this is a subject that will be addressed more in the upcoming July 14 episode “No Stone Unturned.” As for Mike, what we’ll say for now is that we’re simply happy that it appears that Cody Christian is coming back for at least an episode. Given his commitments now on “Teen Wolf,” we weren’t sure how much of him we were going to see.
