How to Get Away with Murder: 3 Questions for Episode 7

What mysteries remain on How to Get Away with Murder? Here’s what we want to know for this week’s episode and going forward with the season.

Note: If you missed last week’s episode of How to Get Away with Murder, or need something to jog your memory, check out the Culturess recap.

Just three episodes of How to Get Away with Murder remain, as the mid-season finale airs on November 17th. However, promos promise that we only have two episodes to go before we find out who’s underneath the sheet.

As that question persists, we’ll quick go over what we know here: we know it’s a man, and that Asher and Oliver are both alive. That leaves Nate, Wes, Frank, and Connor as potential main character victims. It would be a bit of a cop-out to kill someone else entirely, wouldn’t you say?

Other than that, here are the three things we want to know in episode 7 and beyond.

Where’s Connor in the flash-forward?

Soon enough, we’ll just be referring to this as the present. However, in episode 6, when Michaela found Asher alive, he told her that Annalise had called the two of them and asked them to come to the house. Michaela seemed confused at that news, which suggests that she knew nothing of the meeting.

Perhaps she was the only member of the Keating 5 excluded? We know that Laurel was in the house, since the fire department found her alive.

Does Connor’s being missing suggest that he might actually be the victim? Or will we find him alive and snarky as per usual next week? Did he get out of the house, or did he just not go at all and ditch Asher?

Will Frank’s frame-up job hold?

In order to clear any lingering suspicion about Wallace Mahoney’s death, Frank framed the man’s legitimate son, Charles, last week by placing the murder weapon in the trunk of his car. This isn’t Frank’s first rodeo in terms of pinning a crime on someone else.

However, despite Bonnie’s insistence that he just wants to come home, Frank does still have some animosity towards Annalise. Could he have carried the cover-up out in such a way that it unravels to point the finger at her instead?

We suspect that the framing will hold up, though. The show seems to have mostly abandoned the death of Wallace Mahoney and moved on. However, How to Get Away with Murder does like to throw curveballs at its characters, and it could be holding the Wallace issues for the second half of this season.

Does Simon Drake get involved in the flash-forward?

He’s called members of the Keating 5 mean girls. He seems frustrated at their treatment of him. In fact, he’s already tried to smear Annalise by putting up posters that call her a killer. Right now, he just seems like a foil to the Keating 5.

However, the show has given him quite a bit of focus lately, suggesting that he may become more important in the future. At this point, he doesn’t seem like a good candidate for the man under the sheet. He’s only been on the show since the start of this season.

The other new character, Meggy, has already made an appearance in the flash-forward at the ER, giving Oliver and Bonnie information. Who’s to say Mr. Drake won’t do the same?
