Garrett is oddly calm and nonchalant about his predicament.
At least, until he found out Christina was pregnant.
On a trip with Tessa to have an ultrasound, Jack saw Christina waiting for an ultrasound as well.
When Jack told Garrett, he immediately called Christina and was suddenly determined to be exonerated.
The first flashback to 2002 might be the most important.
Madeline stands in his doorway and asks What did you do?
Other flashbacks cover Garretts life in the woods, spanning from 2002 to present day.
He meets a man named Al, who at first tries to kill him but then befriends him.
Al has congestive heart failure and has some terrible coughing fits over the course of these flashbacks.
Al tells Garrett this was the end, and begged Garrett to kill him.
At first Garrett refused, but he eventually holds a pillow over Als face, suffocating him.

This particular flashback is important given Tessas upcoming confrontation with Garrett.
Brady implores her to ask Garrett directly about his innocence instead of blindly defending him.
Its just me, she says.
Just tell me you never killed anyone.
I cant do that, says Garrett.
Aside from the Garrett drama, Alison cooked up some metaphorical rabbit of her own tonight.
Alison asks Jennifer to find some dirt on Connelly, the incumbent mayor currently beating Alison in the polls.
Later, as Garretts watching the news in jail, the head anchor throws to Jennifer.
She tells the police and media to stay away from the killer or else.
Then, the supposed SBK kills Jennifer Windham on live TV.
Again, Madeline asks What did you do?
and Garrett responds, He tried to kill me.
So, as we suspected, it looks like Garrett isnotSBK nor the killers accomplice.
But the age-old question remains: Whos the real killer?
Also, will Christina take Garrett back now that shes pregnant?
And is that the last well see of Jennifer Windham?
Tune in next week as we approach the final four episodes in the Hawthornes saga!
