Part of what annoys me about these rushed plot lines is we don’t get a gradual decent for Oliver. I need to have more than one scene of why he would become the informant if they decide to go that route. I still don’t recognize this season’s Oliver from stand by your man, straight laced Oliver. Totally agree about the the unusual pairings of Frank/Oliver and Bonnie/Connor. I never minded the Sam flashbacks because they filled in a lot of blanks about Annalise, but I was at the point where I loathed Wes. I was annoyed when they turned around and did the same thing with Laurel. I want her to be one of the informants and the dead body.

I remember now. No idea why I brain farted on that. Laurel & Gabe are still high on my list of informants. However the Oliver as the informant is interesting. Could the work his father does as a businessman in the Middle East play a part? I hate that they spent so much time on Wes & Laurel’s families that Michaela and Connor feel like rush jobs.

More importantly we see who isn’t at her funeral; none of the K4, Bonnie, Frank or Tegan. It’s a crowd of strangers. I thought the Solomon, AK fling was pretty much confirmed. However if Connor is Bonnie’s son, it would mean that either AK manipulated Bonnie into choosing Connor by showing her that essay, or Bonnie is lying to appease Connor. Bonnie was pretty gutted to find out her son was still alive and it was implied that her sister never told her the truth about what happened to the baby.

Good point. They keep mentioning they graduate in 3 mths, so I assumed all the cap and gown scenes are 3mths ahead and we just keep inching close to that, but they don’t have any dates on the flash forwards like they usually do, so we could be looking at 2 different time lines; the graduation that is 3mths ahead, and Annalise’s funeral scene. It probably is. They often have 2 concurring events like when Laurel gave birth in the elevator and Simon was shot, so we could have whatever happened at Asher & Gabe’s apartment and the poker situation at Annalise’s apartment. ETA: So Twitter is going strong with this Connor is Bonnie’s baby theory. I’m way too lazy to look it up, but does anyone remember the timeline for Bonnie. I know she got pregnant at 15, but how old was she when she testified? I figure the K5 are 28-30 so guess it could theoretically work, maybe?

I like Masher. I think she played a big part in his growth and maturity, but he also grounds her. He’s honest with her and unafraid to point out her faults. I just want her to completely break it off with Gabe before reconciling with Asher. Gabe is just a Marcus stand in. He’s the image of the Black man she thinks she should be with, and yes superficially pretty. However his personality sucks. Gabe is not the man Michaela needs.

It never occurred to me for one minute that the informant would be Bonnie. My money is still on Laurel, Nate, Gabe, Vivian, or Chloe. I could even be talked into Oliver being the informant. I won’t like it, but I could see it happening. They have actually shown Nate and Vivian talking to the FBI, so my guess is it’s someone they haven’t shown talking to the FBI who is the actual informant. As mentioned, Frank & Annalise didn’t tell Bonnie/Nate that Miller was innocent. Granted Bonnie was darn near suicidal and Nate was/is crazy with grief, so yeah telling them could possibly have broken Bonnie and/orNate. I would not be one bit surprised if it’s Laurel.I still think she disappeared herself and if it was the FBI helping her to disappear, maybe they grabbed Christopher for her. Poor Asher, he so loyal to them all, but he’s always and afterthought. I remember the actor who plays Vic from Breaking Bad, so I was laughing when he had a connect to help Annalise disappear. I think between the last 2 episodes of the season we’ll have a Laurel siting. I’m pretty sure Annalise disappears by winter break. Viola posted on IG when she had filmed her last scene, but according to their social media accounts, everyone else is still filming.

This! I’ve been a Coliver shipper from the start. This season he’s made a 180 turn. Sure Oliver has been enticed bu thrill of what he perceives as the dangerous life the K5 have, but he went from being willing to do anything to be with Connor, being supper duper lovey dovey last season, horrified to the point he was angry at Michaela for even thinking the K5 wanted to hurt Simon, to keeping secrets from Connor and wanting Frank to torture people and barely going into work. If Oliver turns out to be the informant, which I could definitely see pushing Connor over the edge, I’ll be very disappointed because this season’s Oliver is a completely new person.

I definitely get the impression Michaela is covering for Asher. She come a long way from the preppy gal in season 1. She’s become more take charge like Annalise and Tegan. She even dresses like them in pencil skirts and stealth dresses. No more sweet heart ponytails and a lined skirts. I also don’t buy Bonnie’s excuse to Connor for one minute. On Twitter there was speculation that Connor was Bonnies missing son. I think Connor’s a little too old to be her child and Bonnie honestly didn’t know her child lived. Unless, of course Bonnie is covering for AK just on gp. Cora did Tegan a solid by telling her about Nate, but only because Cora knows the truth about Tegan’s relationship with the Castillo’s.

Jack posted on twitter.

Annalise intervenes in Michaela’s relationship with her father and asks for his help in return; after Asher reunites and has an unpleasant conversation with his estranged mother, he shares a meaningful moment with Michaela.

This is the second time the show had made bisexuals seem flakey. Annalise being the first. I haven’t paid attention enough to notice if this is a common tv trope, but I can see the validity of the complaint on this show. I haven’t heard. I think she just decided that since this was the final season and she recently had a baby to ask for reduced screen time. It was announced a while back that she was no longer a series regular. The show had a full season order and most of the main cast (at least those active on social media) are still filming.

Frank got a picture of what he thought was Laurel leaving the bank after emptying the safe deposit box. He talked Oliver into tracking who he thought was Laurel, but told Oliver not to tell anyone, including Connor. It was a trap and Xavier tortured Frank. Frank made it back to Bonnie’s, but was in the hospital ICU. They were mad because Frank nearly died. Connor was mad because Oliver agreed to keep a secret that big from him.

I think the shop has sailed on Eve/Annalise. Eve is settled into a relationship with a child on the way. I like that she remains a good friend to Annalise, but I think it’s best for her to be Annalise’s “one that got away”. as for Annalise/Tegan, I can see the attraction, but I think I’d like to see Annalise with at least one peer based friendship. Annalise deserves a friend who isn’t dependent on her.

Last season ended Fall/Winter. Coliver got married just before Thanksgiving & Christopher had his first Xmas. I think we’re in the Spring of year 3. Since the flash forward is 3mths ahead, my guess is It’s late Feb/March 2017.

Karla is slated as recurring this season and she was seen on set at least once. My guess is we see her in the mid season finale. Not only that but it’s so common for patients to fall in love with their therapist. It’s called transference. Sam should have known better. On another note, someone posted a screencap of the flash forward from this week. There are 2 bloodstains. I know it’s wrong, but I hope one is Gabe’s. If the other belongs to Asher, I hope he’s just wounded and is the client Tegan is going to see. I’ll try and find the screencap again and post it.

At the end of last season, Gabe told Micheala that he supplied the drugs that a Paul OD’d on.

An immature man is still not a boy. Someone 25 years old or more is not a boy, no matter the issues. In season 3 when Laurel is in the ER after Annalise’s house burns down, her chart list her as 27. That means she’s at least 28/29 now and the rest of the K5 are I. The same age range more or less. Gabe as a 2L is a year behind. Gabe is a grown man probably 26/27 years old.

He is not a boy. He’s a full grown man. They are in law school. They are mid 20’s at best. These are not children. Gabriel is a fool. He needs to go get therapy for his daddy issues. He’s seen proof after proof of how much a piece of crap Sam was and yet, continues to search out some sliver of proof that’s wasn’t.

I think they just wanted to wrap up and show why Annalise picked her for the K5 to begin with. My guess is we’ll get Connor’s on the 2nd half of the season. If they hadn’t spent so much time on Wes then Laurel’s stupid drama, they could have space those 2 background plots out a little better. Now it just feel like try8ng to wrap up loose story lines.

First off, Amirah Vaughn was outstanding this episode. The Tegan/ Cora and Tegan/Annalise scenes were so well acted. Favorite line, “ the b*tch is in mah blood!” I loved that the Tegan/Annalise moment didn’t turn romantic. Annalise needs a friend more than another lover. Tegan gets her. As far as I’m concerned Nate, Laurel and Gabe can all die any minute now. My guess is Nate or Gabe for the informant. I think Laurel disappeared herself. The more I think about it, the more that “thank you” Laurel said to Annalise before she disappeared was her way of saying goodbye. I’m happy to see Annalise was planning an exit strategy. Let these folks graduate and get out of dodge. I’m typically a Coliver shipper, but I was really disappointed with Oliver. He really didn’t take ownership of how much withholding that info hurt Connor and then tried to flip the switch and make Connor feel bad for it. Connor has shown he is willing to do pretty much anything to make Oliver happy. It was nice to see him checking in on Oliver’s feelings after the three way. The main torture guy was definitely the one in the picture of Jorge and Tegan in Mexico. Not sure if that means Jorge is involved in all of this or not. My guess is Xavier stole the money once he found about about the private account. I was expecting Micheala to snatch her earrings off when Chloe started in on the K4. I think Chloe knew it too, which is why she backed off and left. I do not trust Chloe. I think this is a scheme to get Asher’s mom to turn over power of attorney to her and/or Asher. They are still living in the Millstone house so I don’t think the Millstones are completely broke. Out of all of them, I think Asher has grown the most. He much more self aware of his short comings and has always been loyal to the K4 and crew, even when they leave him out of things. I think Nate sabotaged Cora’s bike. I like the Micheala/Connor moment. I think they both just realized how good of a friend Asher has been to them. I hope this bodes well for the future. My guess Xavier Clearly Solomon and Annalise are lying. Sam was a piece of trash and Gabe is even worse. How stupid can you be to listen to that tape and not be disgusted at Sam’s lack of professionalism AND total disregard for his first marriage. So what if Annalise came on to him. Annalise admits she was attracted to Sam because it was the safe choice over being gay and Sam represented respectability to her. How stupid is Gabe not to see it was Sam’s job as the therapist, the one in the position of power to point this out to Annalise and either shut that down or refer her to another therapist?! How dare he blame Annalise for his father’s lack of dick control. Pete Nowalk. Shonda isn’t show runner.

I’m thinking either something with his dad or maybe his health. I go back and forth between Coliver being endgame for Nowalk and Oliver dying a tragic death.

Now I’m *really* nervous about Oliver. All season he’s been acting out of character. The last time he behaved like this he was trying to adjust to his dx. He quit his job, canceled Connor’s Stanford acceptance & then broke up with him.

And act all shocked after he stalked them, STOLE Annalise’s keys and now is listening to Annalise’s old therapy tapes. I’m sorry, but Michaela’s behavior is no worse than his. I’m not sure why he won’t believe everyone when they tell him Sam was trash, despite all the evidence. Gabe worked my nerves this week.

Just realized Oliver clearly has a thing for beards. Connor, Thomas and threesome guy all had beards. The lone exception was spatula guy from season 1 and I think he may have have a 5oclock shadow goatee.

We don’t know if Laurel is there. We saw a crib and Laurel’s brother Xavier and probably a henchman. It’s possible that Xavier paid the cab driver to say that’s where he dropped Laurel off. Looks like they beat Frank up. We don’t know much more than that.
