Evidence pointing toward Ezra:
- Works at Rosewood High School. Can easily spy on the girls there.- Started teaching there right when everything with A started.
- Was at Ali’s funeral, even though he supposedly never knew her.
- Could blackmail or pay students to do things like sneak around/spy on the girls at parties where he wouldn’t fit in. I strongly believe Mike was/possibly still is being blackmailed by A to do things like break into houses, so that could be an example if it’s true.
- Could have easily sent the first A message to Aria even though he wasn’t on his phone at the time. Teachers get class rosters BEFORE the first day of school. He could have seen her name, acted shocked that she was in his class as an act, and set a text message to send to her very soon after the bell rang.
- May have been at Ali’s memorial. Spencer recieved a text from A saying they’ll be there watching “just like Tom Sawyer.” — it is a reference to a novel, and he is an English teacher.
- Could easily disapprove a class transfer request to keep Aria there.
- In episode 2 as Aria is leaving the coffee shop in the rain, right before Ezra picks her up, a store is shown called “Hardware Keyes.” The “K” is almost entirely cut off by a pole in front of the sign, so it looks more like “eyes.” The song playing in the background is called “Fresh Pair Of Eyes.” These are the first of many nods at eyes pertaining to both Ezra and A.
- Rode his bike past the girls right before the “Ding dong, the bitch is dead” flyer blew toward them.
- Owns a typewriter. A wrote the letter to Ella using a typewriter.
- In episode 4, Aria told him she was leaving so she could go home and talk to her mom. He seems hesistant and says, things like, “You could stay.” & “Are you sure about that?” He might have been trying to delay Aria from finding out about Ella’s letter from A.
- Could have sent the A text to Aria’s phone when she left it at his apartment as a cover.
- At the homecoming dance in episode 6, Alex and Spencer visit the fortune teller. The fortune teller says that there is “something wrong with this couple, that they are a bad match…there is darkness in him, maybe even violence or vengeance.” During this, they show Aria running after Ezra as well as Toby and Emily. Spencer assumes that the fortune teller means Toby. Now that we know Toby is innocent, Ezra looks suspicious.
- The girls receive no texts from A while Ezra is away in New York or wherever he really was.
- The poem A tells Aria to read is by Ezra Fitz.
- Was at Camp Mona, but in a different car than the one that hit Hanna. He could have easily switched cars.
- ^ She knew too much. —A
Aria was already back with the other girls at the time. The car that hit Hanna was stolen, but he could have broken into another car to do so. Far fetched, but possible. Since A didn’t turn out to be who Hanna thought it was, Ezra could have seen Hanna spying on them and that’s why “she knew too much.”- As a teacher, he most likely has access to locker combinations. He could have put the A notes in Emily and Hanna’s lockers, the book with his poem and the A note in Aria’s locker, and the test answers in Noel’s locker (especially since he was fully aware that Noel was going to rat him out to the principal).
- At the dance-a-thon, Ella greeted A in a friendly manner, as though she knew them personally. When she said, “Hi! Number 32, coming right up. Here you go…hope you had a good time tonight!” in a knowing sort of tone. She probably thought that him and Simone had fun together since she was trying to set them up.
- In episode 15, the bead lady told A that they had “interesting eyes.” Second nod to eyes.
- In episode 18, Jenna tells Ezra that she would like to compose some music for the play. She probably gave him a recording of it and he used it to trick Spencer at the motel in episode 19.
- During play rehearsal in episode 18, Ezra calls it a wrap for the day and tells everyone to put away their props. Everyone leaves except the liars. Spencer opens the props trunk and finds the trophy with the rat blood on it (which they think is Alison’s blood. Spencer asks Emily if it was there before and she says no. Emily was in charge of props, so someone put it there after she brought the trunk into the room. Who else was in the play? Let’s see…Mona, who is NOT A because the producers have stated several times that A is NOT going to be the same as the books. The only other people we can identify in the room are the liars and Ezra who is the director. Other students were in the play as well, but we don’t know them. He probably placed the trophy in the trunk during a rehearsal break. Then, low and behold, they find it when they are told to put away the props. Perfect set-up.
- In episode 19 when Aria confesses to Ezra that her and the other girls blinded Jenna, he barely reacts…as if already knew.
- In episode 20, Aria sends Ezra the text about how she wants to be looking into his eyes. Third nod to eyes.
- He was at his apartment during the Rosewood Founders Festival, therefore he couldn’t have written the note inside the funhouse and sent the phony Toby text unless the scenes were jumbled and he went to the festival after Aria left and Garrett showed up. However, he could have paid/blackmailed someone to do that as I mentioned earlier. Often times, alibis mean nothing.
- Executive producer Marlene King said that during the finale, one of the liars would have a direct altercation with Ali’s killer. An altercation is a heated or angry dispute, argument, or controversy. Aria was very angry at Ezra for not telling her about Jackie and angrily leaves after confronting him. A and Ali’s killer may be two different people, but this could be evidence that Ezra is the killer (or both). Ian had the fight with Spencer, but he didn’t kill Ali. He only thinks he did. He pushed her, and thought that’s how she died (as he stated in the fake suicide note he put on Spencer’s laptop), but her actual cause of death was suffocation. Spencer had to correct him. Someone else came along after and suffocated her.
“…and although Alison DiLaurentis’ body did show signs of a blunt force head trauma, the cause of her death was suffocation.”
— Wilden, episode 2.- ^ Also, the short story Ezra was reading at the bar in episode 4 ended, “And in a moment, her life was undone. Everything she knew disappeared, drifting into the summer sky.” Ali was killed in the summer.
- The other girls seem to be targeted more than Aria
and she has not been in any physical danger yet.A may or may not have been the person who pushed her in episode 202. Mike pushed Aria during his house-breaking-in-escapades, not A. As far as A is concerned, they have not put her in any physical danger yet.- In the season 2 premiere, there is another nod to Ezra’s typewriter.
- Also in the season 2 premiere, when Aria is at Ezra’s apartment, he tells her “Ask me anything.” When the girls receive the text from NotIan! in the greenhouse, it says “Ask me anything.” Not “Ask something, ask me a question” etc. Coincidence or…?
- He could have taken the picture of his desk missing the degree himself and removed the apartment key from under his mat.
- His degree was at the therapist’s office. He could have put it there himself, especially if he happens to go to therapy for some reason. Perhaps after Jackie broke off their engagement, or for another reason we don’t know anything about?
- Third nod to his typewriter in episode 202.
- In episode 204, the sign outside of the pawn shop with Dr. Lars Thorwald says “Someone’s watching you…” That is a reference to the Hitchcock film “Rear Window” but reminds me of 1984 and “Big Brother is always watching you.” In episode 19 of season 1, Jenna references that same quote from 1984 to Aria in the bathroom right after Aria sees Jenna talking to Ezra. Possible reference to Ezra being another N.A.T. club member as well as A and seeing all? The eyes on the sign are also zoomed in on. Once again, a nod to eyes. The poster also almost EXACTLY resembles one for Dr. T.J. Eckleburg in The Great Gatsby, yet another novel Ezra had his class read…and it happens to be by F. Scott FITZgerald.
- In Ian’s “suicide” note, the word ‘hide’ is crossed off after ‘I can’t” and is replaced by the word ‘run.’ When Aria talked with Ezra about Jenna being in the pottery class, Ezra said “You can run, but you can’t hide.”
- Aria’s doll in episode 212 wants her to “make Jackie go away.” Ezra clearly has no interest in Jackie anymore or doesn’t seem to at least. Makes sense if the doll thing was A’s doing. Mentally torturing Aria by having her confront his ex-fiancee and get her to go away for his own sake.
- In episode 212, the waitress at the diner calls A “pretty eyes” in a flirtatious voice. Yet another nod to eyes.
- “NOSEY BITCHES DIE” was written on the wall in Dr. Sullivan’s office. The word “nosy” doesn’t have an ‘e’ in it. ‘E’ for Ezra and also ironic since he’s an English teacher spelling a word incorrectly?
- He is around the same age as Jason, Garrett and Ian. They could have all been friends. According to executive producer Marlene King, there are more members of the N.A.T. Club than we currently know of.
- His nickname in college was Z. Instead of from A to Z, from Z to A? Interesting coincidence (or not) that it was a single letter…
- He will be in the Halloween episode, which means he existed in Rosewood before Alison’s murder.
- The “Ezra is A” April Fools joke could have been the biggest REVERSE red herring ever.
KEEP IN MIND THAT NOTHING IS AS IT SEEMS IN PRETTY LITTLE LIARS. I know that many of you who read this list are probably thinking “OMG NO YOU’RE STUPID EZRA LOVES ARIA HE CAN’T BE A!” …yes he can be. His love for her could be an act, but it could be real if he didn’t think he’d fall for her and ended up doing so. There is so much about EVERY character that we don’t know yet. Everyone, unless they are completely red herring, is a suspect. :)
I would actually love it if this turned out to be true. I dunno, it would just be the most dramatic ending!
