We’ve been suspicious of Detective Darren Wilden (Bryce Johnson) since he first appeared on Pretty Little Liars Season 1. He used sexual blackmail to suppress Hanna’s (Ashley Benson) shoplifting incident, and had the audacity to rub Hanna’s face in it the next morning.

But in light of recent events, has he become a more trustworthy (if not more likable) character? When Ashley Marin (Laura Leighton) shows him the shoplifting police report, he reacts with panic. He explains that, if it were to get out, he would be fired and maybe even face legal trouble. We have to agree with him, and therefore, disassociate him and his actions from “A.”

Then why does he still seem so creepy? We’re still on the fence about Wilden being a good guy or a bad guy, but what do you think?
