‘Pretty Little Liars’ season 5, episode 17 preview: Ashley Benson’s Hanna on a mission

The first few episodes of “Pretty Little Liars” this winter have seen the tension mount on a variety of different subjects, but one of them is ultimately very simple: Trying to figure out what in the world is going to happy with Hanna Marin now that she realizes how big the target is on her back. You would think that there was enough on her plate already courtesy of what is going on with Ashley and her proposal, but that is not the case.

Apparently, at some point during next week’s new episode “The Bin of Sin,” we are going to see some of Hanna’s friends try to lend her a helping hand. However, that is not going to turn out to be as easy as you would hope. For some more scoop on what to expect, check out our official synopsis below:

“Suspecting that Alison/”A” is out to frame her for Mona’s murder, Hanna is not willing to just sit by and let it happen. When Caleb and her friends try to come up with a safe plan to get Hanna off the hook, it isn’t good enough for her. Taking her fate into her own hands, Hanna strikes out alone to clear her name … Meanwhile, relationships are tested when Aria comes clean to Ezra and Spencer’s shady actions continue to put Toby in a bind at work.”

While we cannot guarantee that anything huge will happen in this episode, it will at least get us closer to yet another game-changing finale that could alter the trajectory for our entire cast.
