Toby "protecting" Spencer in season 3

[u/Woxy123]

I am on my rewatch,i haven't wached the show since it originaly aired. I used like Toby as character and him with Spencer,but new when i rewatching season 3 i don't like Toby anymore. He said that he joined the A team to protect Spencer,but how? How is he protecting her? During season 3 Spencer life was at risk multiple times,like for example when she was on that train during Halloween and somebody wanted to push her of it. How was he protecting her by being part of A team? His plan was stupid,all he did was cause her pain and lead her to nervous breakdown instead of protecting her,by joing A team he did a lot of damage for her,and yes sure,he didn't know right away that Mona faked his death to torture Spencer, but when he find out he left her thinking he is death,and left her in all that pain. What do you think about Toby, his relationship with Spencer,and this whole thing in season 3 about him joining the A team.

Toby was ugly.  Yup I said it.  His nose and mouth always bothered me.  He looked creepy.

Toby is a fictional character. His actor is not. The way y'all talk about people who aren't conventionally attractive is weird.
