How to Get Away with Murder Spoilers Have Already Hit the Internet

If you can’t wait for the return of How to Get Away with Murder, but want to go into it completely fresh, you might want to stay off parts of the web.

Warning: this post contains reported spoilers for How to Get Away with Murder’s return later this month. Read at your own risk!

Approximately one-third of the fun of How to Get Away with Murder is trying to figure out what shocking twist will befall Annalise Keating and the rest of her minions-slash-employees as well as her law students. The other two-thirds is almost certainly Viola Davis’ acting as Annalise. However, that first third is rather important, which made the delayed return of the show all the more painful for fans.

Unfortunately, it appears that certain sites did not get the memo about the delay, like IMDb. The site also posts synopses for TV shows, and right there, on How to Get Away with Murder‘s Season 3 page, is what appears to be a very big spoiler for the mystery of the back half of this season, also known as the identity of Wes’ killer.

In case the spoiler mysteriously disappears, here’s a screenshot for the second episode of Season 3B, “Not Everything’s About Annalise”.

There it is: “Michaela, Asher, and Laurel comprehend the reveal that Connor is Wes’ killer.” Okay, we knew that Connor really didn’t like where the adventures of the Keating 5 were going, but to kill Wes? Admittedly, he did threaten Wes with murder. There had better be some excellent flashbacks as to how and why this all went down.

Incidentally, the official synopsis from ABC does not make any mention of this, only saying that “a surprise confession to Wes’ murder could change everything”. It’s also possible that Connor confesses to cover it up.

For now, we’ll just have to wait and see about whether or not this synopsis is accurate.

How to Get Away with Murder returns Jan. 26.
