But sorry not anymore!

All things considered, the midseason premiere was intense but actually digestible, at least byHTGAWMstandards.

Instead, the episode was all about Annalises recovery…and yet, shes never been worse.

She is Ally McBroken.

Naturally, Annalise rejects a nurse (but welcomes pink silks and sensible moccasins, obvi).

Its something Nate noticed, too: Annalise may havewantedto die that night.

A tired Annalise shoos Bonnie away, but shes not alone in the house.

Annalise holds the baby, soothes its cries, rocks it to sleep.

And yet shes not blessed by its presence; shes haunted.

Is the baby Wes?

Suddenly, the prosecutor throws out the useless testimony and Annalisess mistakes are salvaged.

I mean, sort of.

He then drugged Catherine, who shot Annalise and doesnt remember any of it.

Annalise convinces Caleb to convince Catherine to follow along as its her best shot at innocence.

She plays the victim, and she delivers a late-in-the-game statement asserting Philips guilt.

(She gets five years in minimum security prison, and he gets a manhunt.)

NEXT: Wont someone think of the (fully grown and complicit in murder) children!?

Turns out he actually wants to investigate his fathers suicide, claiming it was a homicide.

When she discovers him, Wes lays into her in another classic Gibbins-Keating confrontation.

You knew my mother, didnt you?

You knew her, and thats why Im here.

Why I got in off the waitlist.

Because you knew who I was.

Hes shocked that she thinks hell hurt her.

I think you ruined me, she says.

And he leaves, answer-less, until she runs after him.

Again, is it Wes?

At the very least, Wes is Annalises son!
