Laurel making rash decisions.
Bonnie looking under a car.
Here is everything it’s crucial that you know about what happened before Murder Night, a.k.a.
They call Connor to help dispose of it.
(Surprise: He didnt want to.)
Calebs now her only remaining client, and its a race to get Catherine and Philip implicated.
The problem isCatherine ran away, and shes hiding out at a motel.
He loses his job; in turn, he files a racial discrimination suit against her.
Everyone witnesses Nate going after her, which certainly wont help matters later when shes dead.
The takeaway:Nates fingerprints are now all over Sinclairs car.
Asher, broken and alone, drives around until he finds Sinclair standing in her office parking garage.
Then she brings up Mr. Millstone.
God knows he deserved it, she spouts while Asher fumes inside his car.
Maybe youre better off without him.
She walks away, and a seethingAsher throws his car in reverse and RUNS HER OVER.
God this show is really screwing with my mental health.
But on the happy side, we can now welcome Asher to Murder, Inc.!
Come to me, baby.
Asher calls Bonnie, who double checks Sinclairs body underneath his car and confirms, yeah, shes dead.
Catherines gone, and Caleb is freaking out about it.
Philip is at the police station, and theyve got no updates on whether or not hes talking.
Annalise, meanwhile, is goingthroughit.
Shes getting hit in all directions from the worst kind of notification: phone calls.
She holds off on giving Nate any direction.
She insists that Caleb go to Michaelas apartment for safety.
The second Connor sees the body, hes out.
Nope, he says.
Nope, nope, nope.
It wasnt Bonnie, Annalise continues.
This time, theyre helping to protecther.
is as iconic as any teacher forcing her students to cover up a dead body can be.
You wont see this s onDegrassi.
Annalise places a fake phone call to Sinclair, telling her to come visit the mansion.
She fakes another call to Catherine, begging to let her help protect her.
She calls Frank to check in on the Catherine situation.
Annalise ignores Nates call, but Wes decides to call Nate himself.
He urges Nate to come to the Hapstall house.
Bonnie, who has just dumped Sinclairs body over the balcony, approaches Annalise whats the next move?
Bonnie gives Annalise a look that says Annalise!
and also says Annalise.
And so its just Annalise, a murder weapon, and four kids.
Like it should be.
And our leading lady decides that theres only one way to make their alibi ironclad.
NEXT: Wes, Annalise, and Christophe
Shoot me.
Oh, she isnotplaying.
Connor cant do it, dropping the gun with a devastating I hate you so much.
Michaela is already far past the point of shooting someone.
She screams and cant do it either, threatening to call 911 and end it all right there.
But even she concedes failure: Maybe we should go to jail.
Desperately, shes left with Wes.
But Wes wont do it.
He reveals that Nates on his way to help.
No ones shooting you, says Wes, and you might see Annalises dreams crash in front of her.
Then, she does it.
Rebeccas dead, Wes.
Wes grabs the gun.
And Wes absolutely does not shoot her in the leg.
Annalise cries as he points the gun at her torso and fires.
Down she tumbles to the floor, and Wes horrifyingly takes aim at her head.Damn.
But Annalise begins to mutter, Christophe, and Wes stumbles backwards.
He recognizes the name.
A social work office?
The boy apparently called 911.
He looks up at her and asks, Is she dead?
Hes got the eyes of Wes, the intonation of Wes, the future-plaid of Wes.
And we know Wess mother killed herself years ago, which raises the real question: Is Wes Christophe?
We pan out and see young Annalise and Eve (Famke Janssen) watching through a one-way mirror.
Good God, Annalise, says Eve.
What did we do?
NEXT: The final page lets wrap this up.
How to Get Away With Murderdoesnt return until February 11.
That gives us about three months to think about some questions from this week of jaw-droppers.
Did she and Eve lose a case that forced her to take her life?
Or did they perhapswinone that drew the same tragic ending for a defendant?
How much does Wes remember of his life as Christophe?
What was young Annalise doing 10 years prior?
Was she with Sam then?
How much does Philip see when he gets to the mansion?
Also, did the two of them actually kill the Hapstall parents?
Thatd be kind of nice to find out already.
Where does Nate take everyone?
Will Connor and Michaela ever recover?
And how soon until Cicely Tyson comes back to visit Annalises mother in a hospital bed?
!
