The Perfectionists' Fan Theories Who Killed Nolan? Plus More
5 'The Perfectionists' Theories 'PLL' Fans Need to Read
By Anna QuintanaMar. 27 2019, Updated 3:11 p.m. ET
The Pretty Little Liars spinoff The Perfectionists just premiered, however already fan theories are working rampant on the internet.
In the very first episode, the highly regarded Nolan Hotchkiss was killed — which is prompting audience (and readers of the books) to speculate on who killed Nolan.
Along with discovering the murderer, lovers also have fan theories to explain why Emily Fields is lacking from Beacon Heights, and what the notorious pink coat we saw in the promo really manner?
Keep reading for a roundup of the best The Perfectionists fan theories:
1. Who killed Nolan?
The biggest question surrounding The Perfectionists is the demise of Nolan Hotchkiss. One fan has a gorgeous convincing theory as to who killed Nolan (and led his sister to faux her death a yr earlier).
"Now Taylor’s audition tape states that both Hotchkiss kids had a bad relationship with their parents and secretly planned to steal their business from them. But the mom probably caught wind of that, since she is actively stalking her son with cameras in the pilot episode," redditor Harley4L wrote. "I'm starting to think that the Hotchkiss family was discarding “their imperfect members," who wanted to destroy them. Ava, Caitlin, and Dylan‘s plan to homicide Nolan might just be one thing the mom caught on her video tapes by accident and made up our minds to run with it."
Seeing as Nolan was murdered in the books by Julie Redding, a character who is not on the show, this theory is plausible.
2. The "Dark Ali" Theory
This theory pins the murder on Alison DiLaurentis, who fans will remember from Pretty Little Liars. On the spinoff, Alison heads to Beacon Heights University to work as a teaching assistant.
However, die-hard fans remember a "darkish Ali" on PLL who could make a comeback.
"What if [showrunner I. Marlene King] decided to remove Julie and added Alison as the assassin with the cut up character? We have already got the unexplained scene from PLL 5x10 where a apparently evil Ali with a black wig is doing some shady industry even after she came back to Rosewood as the excellent and reborn Ali," the redditor wrote. "What if all alongside, the 'Dark Ali' existed in Alison and after returning to Beacon Heights she snapped back into her selection personality? Note that during the books the two 'characters' in one don't seem to be conscious of each other."
The fan ended the theory with, "It would make sense as to why Alison had such dramatic shifts in conduct during the series and it will make the highest "twist on a twist" that will attach the two shows."
3. Is Emison doomed?
Fans instantly noticed that Emily Fields would not be making the move from Rosewood with wife Alison, which has prompted many to speculate that this might be the end of Emison. Or is it?
"Ali sought after a recent start. Some kind of thriller leads her (as well as Mona) to Beacon Heights. Her and Emily mentioned it, they usually agreed that Ali would transfer to teach at BU whilst Emily stayed in Rosewood with the twins. They’re nonetheless together and married and video chat regularly, however they reside separately," one fan predicted.
I. Marlene King revealed the relationship would be addressed on the Freeform show, telling TV Guide, "Alison comes to Beacon Heights as a result of a chance arises that she can not move up. It's very laborious for her to leave Emily and the babies, but we will be able to perceive as the first 10 episodes play out what is took place in that relationship, why it is happening, and why Alison is thus far away from Emily
4. The Red Coat Theory
If you were having a look intently, you probably noticed the infamous "Red Coat" in the promo for The Perfectionists. Fans, as expected, imagine this can be a sign every other personality from Pretty Little Liars would be resurfacing in the by-product.
'This were given me considering... Sara [Harvey] died and never actually were given to tell her complete tale," one redditor said of the red coat resurgence. "What if she had some connections to Beacon Heights and whatever Big Bad is tormenting the new Liars? Or what if she was only a decoy/fake Red Coat and the real Red Coat followed Ali to Beacon Heights and began the recreation again?"
Very interesting...
5. When all else fails, go with the "long misplaced twin" theory.
Some fans are convinced that just like PLL, there will be the "lengthy misplaced twin" plot twist on The Perfectionists.
"Let me wager: considered one of the protagonists [has] a dual who's the perpetrator. That's my theory from the get-go," one fan commented. Another cheekily added, "But Alison is aware of higher than to consider small cities created via Sara Shepard and adapted to tv by way of I. Marlene King since you're going to inevitably discover that all your family is composed of secret twins with sociopathic dispositions." LOL.
In case you need a refresher (or this sounds acquainted), Spencer Hastings had a long-lost equivalent twin on PLL.
