[welcometocrazy101]

with only three episodes left, here are some questions we still need answers to:

What is the biggest plot twist of the series?

Is Annalise really going to end up dead?

Is Wes alive?

Where has Laurel been this whole time?

Will Annalise be found guilty?

How big of an involvement did the FBI have on murdering Asher?

Is Agent Pollack working with the Castillo’s individually?

Are the FBI and the Castillo’s in this together?

What will happen with Connor and Michaela and their plea deal?

the titles for the finale three episodes are,

(6.13): “What if Sam Wasn't the Bad Guy This Whole Time?”

(6.14): “Annalise Keating is Dead”

(6.15): “Stay”

[jadeontumb1r]

What if it’s actually Wes behind it all and coming after Annalise for pinning everything related to Sam’s murder on him and the funeral flash forward is all to lure him out??? I’ve not seen this theory anywhere else??

[0blivi0usness]

HTGAWM Rewatch

So i’ve been rewatching certain episodes to try to piece together things. It’s a lot so bare with me.

Let’s start off first with Wes’ “death”. If he truly is alive (Pete the creator already confirmed its Wes so it’s not baby Christopher in the future and I doubt it’s a dream or hallucination because you typically dream about people how you last saw them. I doubt Annalise now envisions Wes with the fresh cut. She’s gonna envision him how he last saw him with the trash hair line😂) Okay so I rewatched his death scene. There’s definitely missing pieces to it. Nate comes then leaves, Wes leaves the voicemail, Dominick injects him (with what I think something that makes the body presumably dead) He brings him to the basement, starts the fire up, Connor gives Wes CPR and mentions his body is still warm, Laurel walks in and remembers seeing someone exit the side door (was that confirmed connor? i don’t quite remember). Connor runs out and the house catches on fire. What doesn’t make sense to me is that how did Dominick see Connor run out but not Laurel walk in? Doesn’t make much sense to me there. If Wes is indeed alive, they would’ve had to switch out bodies with one that looks exactly like him. that’s the only part that’s hard for me to piece together. But i really do think Dominick was playing both sides and helped Laurel’s mom too. The last scene we see with Ms. Castillo is Laurel yelling at her saying “Tell me why I shouldn’t kill you right now.” obviously she told her that she helped Wes escape. I think it was also foreshadowing because her mom also told her that she would see Wes again and covered it up by saying “baby wes” when Jorge had temporary custody over christopher. So i believe they’re gonna play with the timelines of Wes’ “death” in order to bring him back. Because that’s the only way this is gonna work. Laurel’s moms scalp was either a sign from Laurel’s mom to tell Laurel to hurry and leave soon OR Jorge/Xavier found out she has been keeping Wes alive and killed her. Laurel probably threatens Tegan again with the Jane Doe stuff and convinces her to help her run away. I don’t think physically Tegan took baby christopher but just hired someone like a frank type of dude to take him.

Second off, I know a lot of people think there were 2 murders in 6x09, because the scene of the fireplace stick was very bloody and splattered whereas Asher’s body only had blood on his head, no other blood surrounding him. My theory with this is that when Annalise told the cab driver to turn back around, she splattered her own blood around her own apartment to make it look like a crime scene to fake her death even more. My mom told me when people fake their death they are given a cup of their own blood. So this would make sense because why else would she go back home in the midst of everything happening? I think Asher truly bled out. He was even alive on the floor and slowly just faded out in life. I believe he brought the stick with him from the K3 house to get rid of any evidence of incriminating the others and with Oliver wearing Laurel’s gloves, his DNA didn’t get on the stick which is why Connor & Michaela got charged. So it could’ve very well been Asher knocking on Gabriel’s door maybe to apologize for everything. Only thing i’m missing is what happened between Bonnie’s house and him getting home. Bonnie called Frank for a reason. Maybe they all planned to set up Gabriel for Asher’s death not sure. But once again they would have to go into the timeline because when Asher disappeared Michaela said they were 2 hours away from graduation starting so that means Asher died and they tested evidence and still showed up to arrest them before they even headed to graduation all within that time frame so shit popped off quick.

What do y’all think??? :-)

[sanstarklings]

Random predictions/guesses for what happens in HTGAWM’s finale:

Annalise wins the trial.

The Governor puts a hit on Annalise.

Bonnie gets shot taking the bullet meant for Annalise.

The FBI renig on their Connor and Michaela. Connor has to serve time, Michaela’s father gets her a good deal.

Connor and Michaela’s friendship breaks apart.

Nate dies or is imprisoned.

Frank dies or is imprisoned.

Laurel dies.

Annalise raises Christopher in the time Connor is imprisoned, and remains close with him even when he eventually lives with Oliver and Connor.

Annalise dies sometime in the future, where a grown Christopher (played by Alfred Enoch) attends her funeral service.

Gabriel confesses to murdering Vivian’s old boyfriend. Tegan represents him. He gets jail time.

?????

[puiss]

HTGAWM MID-SEASON FINALE

I have so many thoughts my head’s gonna explode

- Asher is the mole : it makes no sense whatsoever. He had found his new family and honestly the thing of his mom going to jail because his dad stole money ?? Like yeah ??? Why would he choose her over his found-family i don’t get it. She would’ve gotten to jail for something waaaay less awful than murder so yeah. It makes no sense

- i kinda liked him before but since he did that i don’t get his character anymore and i’m almost glad he’s dead ?? 

- i have no idea who killed him tho, i REALLY, REALLY, REALLY hope it’s not Bonnie who had to kill him to cover for someone else AGAIN 

- it’s weird tho, because he went to Bonnie’s, Bonnie called Franck and then Asher died at his/Gabriel’s place. So either he asked Franck to kill him (which would make sense tbh) or idk

- there’s also AK. She asked the car to turn around so she probably went back to her place/ to Bonnie’s and talked to Asher : that would explain why the murder weapon is from her place 

- so maybe she snapped and killed someone after all

- glad she had the time to escape tho, and that the plane didn’t crash at the last minute 

- oh but also i realized just now that Oli used the same kind of tool than the one at AK’s place. So maybe Asher died of his wound (like he was going home and died)

- that wouldn't explain the splashes of blood we saw right after 

- but idt that’s it. Somebody attacked him and killed him on purpose

- Also Connor’s panic attack makes sense now, because he’s high and thinks Oli killed Asher

- Oli gonna have to live with the guilt for a few eps at least and i don’t like it

- I hate Nate tbh and i don’t understand who he’s become

- ok now onto the juicy stuff 

- Laurel’s call didn't make sense AT ALL wtf she just called to say ‘it wasn’t me” like bitch ??? if your life is at risk don’t call to say that ??? Like what’s the use i don’t get it

- so Wes (or his twin brother for all that matters) is alive. Ok, well done Pete, we didn’t see it coming, even tho know a lot of details don’t add up

- so he was probably hiding with Laurel (that would make the most sense) but he just like... show up at AK’s funeral like he wasn't dead ?? People there are probably gonna recognize him ??? 

- there are A LOT of things from the night he died that i didn't get (i still don’t really understand who killed him tbh) like there was a whole autopsy realized on him and we saw him dead but still he is alive and doesn’t have any scars on his face ??? Then who was the guy we saw at the morgue. Also the scene her Connor does pcr on him ... i think it was said that the autopsist didn't found that he had a broken rib... and also the fact that Dominic killed him at AK’s place... 

- also i know this is like a ... season 3/4 flashback but... do we know who Wes was calling in that scene in the cab right after he left the police station the ‘it’s Christophe’ bit (edit : i think it was Eve. Pretty sure even) (edit 2 : now that i think about it... Eve was back for a brief moment last season, correct ? And she met Teagan. So maybe at some point they talked/got drunk together whatever and Eve admitted to her that Wes is alive ? So when Laurel told her she was begining to fear for her life she offered this solution ? Tbh it could work) (edit 3 : ok so all of this is wrong since it was actually Sandrine who gave the number to Wes but i'm keeping the theory up because i like it)

- How what is Teagan role in all of this ?

- maybe she just thought Laurel was in danger and since she knows what the Castillo were capable of she decided to help her ?

- Also is Sandrine (Laurel’s mom) really dead ?

- and that woman who was spying on AK, she probably saw her leave her apartment right ? Maybe she followed her ? 

- also AK’s password to her safe is 123456 ... 

-  ALSO CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE FACT THAT THE BONNALISE KISS MADE IT TO THE FLASHBACKS ??? 

- and also Teagan ‘i wouldn’t mind being ) called your date’ liKE OK LET ME BREATH

- i also remember from the flashfowards that Teagan is on the murder scene (aka Asher’s place) and that she is defending her client. So she’s probably defending Michaela and Connor right

- Why would the fbi think that Connor and Michaela are the one who killed Asher (maybe because they did it-)

- so there’s someone else who knows that Asher is dead and who’s trying to blame it on them (Gabriel ?)

- Franck and Bonnie make no sense and i hate the writers for forcing this on us 

(i’m sorry this is so messy there are so many things i’m thinking of i can’t organize my thoughts)

[howtogetawaywithmurderblogg]

Watching laurel about to snitch like

[badassbellarke]

Who does Bonnie murder?

That is the big question people are asking.

First of all, I AM LIVING FOR THIS SEASON AND THE MYSTERY. It is so juicy because there are a lot of separate story-lines and questions floating around between our core characters, as opposed to the previous seasons where everybody was working together to get away/cover up murder.

Suspect - Bonnie freaking Winterbottom.

Let’s get right to it. As a whole, I’d say this character is quite unknown in comparison to the Keating four and Annalise herself. What do we know about her, really? The ‘what’ usually leads to the ‘why’ and the ‘whom’. 

Well, we know she is an attorney of law. 

We know she is a killer. In fact, one could argue that she has had her hands in every single murder on this show thus far and is by far the most responsible. She has not killed every single person herself but she has been involved or in the know about them all. Frank, too. 

We also know she has a history of mental illness. To what extent I don’t know if that has been shared (I have a terrible memory?) but we do know as an audience that she is very unstable. We have witnessed it many, many times. She acts with impulse and without regret.... possibly a sociopath? 

She was sexually assaulted and abused by her father, and raped by his acquaintances whom he set up. Which, no doubt, caused a lot of trauma and contributed to her mental instability. 

Her father had been in prison her adult life and was later murdered by Frank.

She is a compulsive liar. Annalise is supposed to be her best friend and most trusted ally, however Bonnie has lied to her a countless amount of times straight to her face without any guilt. Not to mention that she had an affair with Annalise’s husband without remorse, too. 

She has an estranged sister who is presumably troubled.

She gave birth to a baby boy when she was fifteen years old and remembers the entire experience, but said she never saw her son after birth. He was later kidnapped from the hospital by Bonnie’s sister. 

She manipulates people and uses them, especially her boyfriends or partners. She has a problem with intimacy. 

My question is, what is her motive? What is her gain?

Victim - John / Jane Doe.

We know that the person killed cannot be any of these people: Laurel (she is seen grabbing Christopher from Bonnie after Bonnie murders John Doe), Michaela (she finds Bonnie in the bathroom covered in blood after the murder), Annalise (she is dancing at the wedding reception when Frank approaches her to confess what has happened), Frank (he finds Annalise at the reception afterward), Asher (Connor finds him outside the reception having *relations* with Mrs. Walsh), or Connor (he is at the reception waiting for Oliver to make a toast). 

That leaves Oliver, Nate, Gabriel, or Bonnie’s sister Julie. 

Who can it be? Whose death left Annalise broken on her apartment floor? 

I have my fingers pointed towards Nate Lahey, Oliver, and Bonnie’s sister.

Oliver Hampton. 

Why would Bonnie want to kill Oliver? Well, that is the easiest part of my theory. Oliver is a hacker and we know that he was investigating Gabriel and trying to figure out what Frank had to do with him. 

If Gabriel is Bonnie’s son then it is possible that Oliver figured it out and was going to tell somebody, possibly Gabriel himself. Oliver has a guilty conscience and always wants to do what his moral compass says, especially after the Simon incidents last season with him almost dying and then being deported. Oliver is done with the lies and schemes. 

This could have conflicted with Bonnie’s long term agenda of keeping her son a secret, and maybe she snapped. Maybe she kills Oliver to simply keep him quiet. All the other people that are in the know such as Frank, Annalise, Nate, and Laurel are all excellent secret keepers, Bonnie wouldn’t worry about them, but Oliver? 

And let’s be honest, killing Oly off directly after he finally married Connor would be in perfect Shonda Rhymes fashion. She loves a tragic story. 

(I HATE THIS THEORY SO MUCH ILY OLIVER HAMPTON-WALSH PLEASE BE SAFE)

Nate Lahey

The only reason I am typing his name is because of how Annalise reacted to the news  and how she crumbled onto her floor once she returned home. She was devastated. And we all know she is in love with Mr. Nathaniel Lahey Jr. 

Also, he was looking deep into Gabriel’s past trying to figure out who he was and who Bonnie’s child is, which might have compromised things. He might have found out something he shouldn’t have known such as particular DNA evidence pertaining to Bonnie, or her sister. 

The only thing I can’t wrap my brain around though is how Bonnie could have managed murdering a guy twice her size by suffocating him like shown. You would think that Nate can fight back hard enough to get away from someone of her size, especially at a crowded party not very far away. So unless Frank was her accomplice and somehow subdued Nate, it doesn’t seem logical that she could kill him, especially without being hurt in the process. He carries a gun. 

But who else’s death would upset Annalise to such a degree? 

And why else would Bonnie have his cell phone after the murder had taken place? Michaela calls his phone and Bonnie takes it out of her purse to silence it and send it to voicemail. 

Either Nate helped her commit murder and his cell phone fell out of his pocket, which for an Officer is highly unlikely and goes against his better judgement, or he himself was murdered. 

Julie Winterbottom

In the bathroom scene at the wedding reception when Michaela confronts Bonnie, Bonnie seems jolted and out of character. Her responses to Michaela almost sound rehearsed and impersonal, and it is the same when Laurel walks in to grab Christopher. The Bonnie we have come to know has a lot of love and affection for Christopher and Laurel, too, and she is generally a bit warmer to them. This Bonnie appears uncomfortable and secretive. This Bonnie appears... different. Unhinged. Snapped. 

Annalise says to Frank in the latest episode, “I’m worried about Bonnie. She isn’t herself when she is around her sister, I’ve seen it.” 

Did Bonnie snap and kill her sister? 

Bonnie’s sister did after all kidnap her song all those years ago, and she confessed to burying him in the woods alive. Certainly enough motive for Bonnie to want her dead. 

Let’s face it, Bonnie and her sister do not have a good relationship in general. Julie even admits that it has been a DECADE since they have seen each other and she was very hostile about it. Julie is an ex addict and alcoholic from the looks of things, and Bonnie couldn’t deal with it any longer so she separated herself. The only reason why she decided to see Julie again was because she wanted to know the truth about her son, and what she learned I believe sent her over the edge. 

Her sister not only kidnapping but also killing her baby is devastating... I could see that being traumatic enough for her to break. And Bonnie is a very spiteful character, we even witness this as she attempts to call the police and report her sister for having an unregistered firearm. Frank says to her, “you’d regret this tomorrow” but I’m not sure that she would have. 

Bonnie wants revenge.

Who did you think she killed? x

[sleepingatthetwilight]

Gabriel Maddox: My Theory

There’s no reason to assume Frank’s investigation has anything to do with Nate’s, and therefore we shouldn’t assume Gabriel is Bonnie’s son. We shouldn’t assume he is Annalise’s either, though both of these are the clear misdirects the show is giving us--meaning we should probably look elsewhere.

Who has Gabriel himself shown the most interest in? At first glance, it appears to be Annalise. He gets into her class through sheer confidence and skill, and he makes a point of telling her that he came to Middleton because of her. 

But Gabriel has also taken a particular interest in Laurel. He makes a point of telling her he grew up in a single parent home to gain her sympathies. He asks about her mother’s mental illness, and raises it as another point of commonality between them. Laurel assumes that what he knows about her comes from eavesdropping on her not-very-subtle conversations with her friends. But what if it’s more than that?

The season opens with Laurel receiving a surprise gift in the mail from her mother, who has been in the wind since the end of last season. This is there to remind us that while we may not be seeing Sandrine directly, she is very much still in play.

The only person suspicious of Gabriel is Frank. Because Frank has worked for Annalise, our first assumption is that Frank’s suspicions relate to Annalise, or if not her, Bonnie. But who does Frank care about more than anyone in the world?

Laurel.

Who is Frank really worried about Gabriel hurting? Laurel.

And if Frank was quietly investigating the disappearance of Laurel’s mother, he might have learned some things about her in the process. Such as another child, by another father.

Gabriel is Sandrine’s son. Gabriel is Laurel’s half-brother.

The question remaining is who Frank’s been talking to on the phone.

[idkmybffjillyy]

what if wes is the one whos killed at the wedding bc it would make sense for him to be with (taking?) christopher. from the back frank (or one of the k4) could have thought it was gabriel (?). bonnie would kill anyone so.

and mostly bc i wouldnt put it past the writers to be so cruel as to reveal wes is alive and then immediately re-kill him

[yesterdayiwrote]

I'm going in early with my theory, so watch this be disproved by the end of tonight's episode...

Oliver will end up in jail by the end of the season (maybe even as a cliffhanger)

There just feels like too many loose ends that all end up tied back to him and this show has a pattern of the wrong person being put under suspicion. 

So far, he's given the least truthful statement to the police. He wasn't there, and yet he's told them he physically witnessed Simon shoot himself.

Everyone's forgotten about Simon except for Oliver, and we've already seen Connor detail to him how he's made himself look more guilty. Michaela literally forgot about Oliver at the crime scene and became distracted by Laurel, they kinda all did - could be foreshadowing?

Dominic had Oliver's name, and he gave it to someone else. He's the it guy, with a history of hacking, Denver's case would write itself.

Connor's comment in the sneak peek about how Oliver's always lucky made me think maybe his luck is about to run out.

Not to mention it's about time they gave Oliver, and by extension connor, something to work with

[welcometocrazy101]

Is he or isn’t he?

here are some theories we’ve come up with:

wes has been alive this whole time and has been kept under witness protection

that actually wasn’t wes but it was christopher all grown up at annalise’s funeral

the scene isn’t real and it’s annalise dreaming about her funeral and seeing wes there

wes found laurel through the help of tegan and they’ve been hiding from xavier

what are some of your theories?

[kkthanks]

HTGAWM: How do you know Christophe?

I’ve been very off my nerdy tv watching / re-watching/ theorizing game, so forgive me if something in season 1 makes this one impossible etc:

Frank (and all of us) want to know how Laurel’s family and Dominick knew Wes and how they knew his real name. I find myself thinking back to exactly how worried Wes’s mother Rose was about being deported when Wes was really young. She was so scared, she didn’t even want to let Annalise help her in court; she figured if she testified and said the wrong thing, that would be all it would take.

That emphasizes for me that when she and Wes came to the states, they didn’t do it legally. Somebody must have helped arrange that. What if Laurel’s family played a hand in Wes and his mother coming to America? Laurel’s dad seems to be involved in every other sketchy deal in town, so why not this? Thoughts?

[0blivi0usness]

Soooo if Emmett is confirmed to not be involved and it was Laurel’s brother... does that mean Tegan lied about his phone records matching what the governor gave Annalise??

[myprettylittletheories]

Oliver is driving me crazy, I wish he’d just sit down and shut up sometimes.
