* In the season 7 premiere, while Hanna is imprisoned by AD, she sees Spencer appear to her, reassuring her that she can find a way out of it. Hanna questions whether or not she is dreaming, while Spencer answers that even if it is a dream, a dream is an experience, which is also real. She tells Hanna that, if there is a way in, there is a way out, and the scene ends with Hanna laying her head in Spencer’s lap while Spencer strokes her hair and sings her to sleep. Thanks to Spencer’s encouragement, Hanna remembers the advice she was given and is successfully able to escape.

Added DiffLines:

* In one episode, A uses [[spoiler: Hanna's mother's financial difficulties to try and blackmail Hanna into making Aria's mom run into Aria and Ezra while they're out on a date.]] Despite knowing the massive amount of trouble it will land Aria in, Hanna goes through with it, but immediately wants to and tries to take it back. Then A sends a text to Aria implying Hanna backstabber her. What's Aria's reaction? She shows it to Hanna, saying she thinks A is clever to try to turn them against one another. It's more than a little heartwarming that she thinks Hanna would never do that to her (though she didn't know Hanna's circumstances at the time).

Added DiffLines:

* The friendship between Aria, Hanna, Emily and Spencer is pretty heartwarming. While they do end up lying to each other from time to time, either because out of fear of what "A" might do to the girls' or their other loved ones if their secrets were ever exposed or because they truly think it's the best option, the Liars aren't intentionally malicious towards each other. There isn't a second that goes by where it's not clear that not only are these girls the best of friends, but that there isn't anything they wouldn't do for each other if it meant that they would be safe and out of harm's way.
