Did they ever explain who that guy was? Obviously Charles was a red herring because they wanted Cece to be a surprise, so they set it up to make it seem like Andrew was Charles. But there WAS a dude in the dollhouse, it obviously wasn't Cece.
Until the show or Botox confirms it I'm just going to assume it was Noel since he fits the costume and he was helping Cece torture the liars in the dollhouse. Spencer's comment about recognizing his presence makes more sense than Cece's.
Yeah, now that I really think about it, Cece must have had Noel do it, unless there was some other guy in there that we didn't know about. But does that also mean that Noel was the guy in the hospital bed that got up and was coming after Cyrus? Because that was definitely not Cece either, it was clearly a man. I'm guessing Marlene added this whole Noel part after everybody started complaining that A was very obviously a guy in several scenes.
I wouldn't be surprised if they originally planned for A to be a dude. The person who spoke to Alison on the playground in NY (in the ridiculous scene with a million As) was also a man.
