How To Get Away With Murder RECAP: 2x06 Two Birds, One Millstone
Last episode, Annalise convinced her side piece (Nate counts as a side piece still, right? Annalise has no main man or woman anymore, so I'm just... I'm totally confused on how this side piece stuff works if your husband got murdered by a potential side piece. And then you met up with your lesbian lover from Harvard and things are complicated there too... and then you pin the murder of your husband on your side piece that may have gotten upgraded to a main piece because your husband got murdered by potential side piece... that was a total mindfuck for me. Annalise Keating, get yo shit together!) that she had to pin the murder of Sam on him because she needed to protect Bonnie. Asher was going to testify against everyone because ~morals~. Oliver wants to get paid to do illegal shit for Annalise, which worries me. The gay male version of Kalinda Sharma needs to get his boyfriend's shit together because there is nothing good about Annalise Keating's house. Just because you can earn money doesn't mean you should do it! The pay is great, sure, but it's like working in a nursing home- morbid and emotionally tolling. And then the possible event of having to pull the plug on people- or having people pull the plugs on you. We also found out that something really terrible happened to Bonnie in her childhood and basically protect Bonnie Winterbottom 2015. Frank and Laurel had sex and everyone died from the hotness. Levee/Aiden (yes I started watching South of Nowhere) got arrested for enough meth in the back of his car even your local drug dealers would be drooling out of their mouths. But why did he have all that meth? Your local hitman that everyone loves to pieces framed him, that's why! On lighter notes, Bonnie and Asher said I love you. And Connor told Oliver he loved him, which means that Connor is A Changed Man.
In the flashforward, we learn that Asher is actually involved with something for once! Bonnie gets in the car with him. She stops to go 'pee', but really, she's just washing off blood. She goes back to the car and Asher left to go talk to the police. Bitch, this is why you got left out of the first murder!
Predictions for 2x06:
- This week, Jack Falahee teased that someone dies this episode. I've been worried about Connor's fate for awhile, so naturally that made me really, really fucking scared. But everyone has been guessing that it's Nia (Nate's dying wife), which would make a little bit of sense considering how Nate acts on Murder Night + Shooting. Killing off Nia would fill in some crucial puzzle pieces for why Nate wanted to help the Murder 4 (which, technically, should be considered Wes and the Accomplices- which would be a killer band name) and would explain why Nate was yelling at Annalise in the preview for this week's episode.
- Levi's story doesn't end there, because I need to make South of Nowhere references that I haven't quite come up with yet. Although, after taking criminal justice in 11th grade, I know that possession of drugs charges are really hard to fight and you should just plead guilty.... Annalise Keating could totally win his case with Bullshit TV Law. Also, we need another fuckboy on HTGAWM these days. Connor isn't cutting it anymore after he got in a relationship.
- Somehow Oliver gets involved with Annalise's shit, because we're not allowed to have nice things when we can have terrible, awful things involving Oliver.
- I think there's a bit more to why Laurel is sleeping with Frank this episode. I mean, she was looking through stuff in the previews...
- The hacked webcam had something to do with ADA Emily St Clair or Oliver. I'm leaning towards St Clair.
- Still think the adopted siblings are bumping uglies together. And before you say it- you can bump uglies with your sister and then move on from bumping uglies with your sister and get together with some other adopted girl with a great sense of style.
- Since Pete Nowalk said that if we didn't care about what happened at Trotter Lake he'd consider you an awful person, I'm going to come out with a theory so absurd it'll make the trees with epilepsy theory from LOST look normal. The girl from Trotter Lake was a minor who wanted to party with some frat boys. Shit went down and she got drunk and frat boys did awful things to her, like rape and then she might have died.
I am so scared about this episode. I'm biting my nails while watching the last few seconds of scandal.
Flashforward. Annalise is at the hospital. Frank rushes in and wants to know what's happening. He's begging them not to let her die. He goes back to his car and he has Catherine's dead body in there. Are you fucking kidding me Frank? Again?
2 weeks back.
Frank and Laurel are doing things that count as softcore porn. Laurel's hair looks fucking amazing this episode. Anyways.... Laurel looks at his phone and he has it locked. Which means he is smarter than Sam Keating, because like... Sam never locked his phone. See where that got him? Lock your phones, idiots.
Connor and Oliver are in their apartment. Oliver made a list about the bad things Connor could have done that was felony-worthy. I bet he doesn't even have what actually happened on the list! Connor is like, "nbd", and they make use of the 10 minutes they have in the morning and have sex.
Laurel, Wes, Michaela, and Connor are disputing about that damn suitcase and Rebecca. Annalise tells them to sit the fuck down. She calls on Asher.
Flashback to the scene where Annalise is showing the video of Bonnie and her dad to Asher. Asher is thinking about what he's going to do and he's crying. Annalise gets him to decide that he's not going to testify. Then he says that there's a really bad thing he did.
Bonnie and Annalise are in the office. See, Asher was told not to tell Bonnie about the video. So Bonnie doesn't think that that has anything about him. Annalise isn't upset with Bonnie.
Asher comes out into the office and says that Wes and the Accomplices have no clue what's going on. Laurel goes, "o rly".
Annalise and Emily are arguing. Annalise knows that's she's better than her, so she just scoffs about Emily thinking she's going to win the Catherine and Caleb case.
Annalise is lecturing Keating 5 and Bonnie is on the phone with a woman. Bonnie keeps saying it's urgent.
Annalise eventually takes it, and the woman says that Steven (presumably her husband) came after her with a bottle. She killed him. Annalise gives the, "Not this shit again," look and we cut to commercials.
Annalise is trying to help new client Jill. She asks every single question in the book that would make it alright to kill your husband.
Bonnie and Asher are talking. Asher makes a joke about Caleb and Catherine being dead- TOO SOON. TOO FUCKING SOON. I MEAN, I KNOW IT HAPPENED IN THE FUTURE BUT... TOO SOON. IN THE PAST. Anyways, they make awkward conversation.
Annalise goes to Jill's house after telling her to call the police. Annalise points out all the mistakes the police are making while looking through everything.
Asher ignores a call from his dad when he goes to the mansion. Michaela talks about the racist aunt. And then Asher gets mocked by Michaela and Caleb.
Her client, Jill, is transgender. The police think that she killed her husband because he found out that she is transgender. Which is something that Annalise could probably help her with, but then Jill says, "You'll be next if you bring that up." Come on, keep your thoughts of murder in your head! Annalise even told you to keep quiet!
Annalise is interrogating Jill. She asks if her husband knew. Jill says yes, and then she says that her husband really had been beating her. She just exaggerated a bit. Jill brings up that if she is found guilty, she could be send to a male prison. Annalise sees this as a good reason to help her.
Wes calls Nate and Nate basically says, "Hey, fuck you. Go hang out with Levi."
Connor tries to set Michaela up with Caleb again. Laurel says that Caleb isn't innocent. They get in an argument over who is innocent, but you know what?
They should have been paying attention, because Catherine was audio recording everything on her iPad.
Frank comes in to Annalise's office after she gets done scolding Keating 5 for being so damn idiotic. Come on, check everyone's iPads! They might be ready to harvest new supplies on SimCity! Every second counts! Frank says that Nate's wife died.
Did Nate give his wife the pills? Did Frank?
Annalise goes to Nate's apartment and gives him a peach cobbler. It's really upsetting, but I don't completely trust Nate. Or Frank. I kind of predicted she was going to die, but still. So many deaths it's like we're watching The Grim Reaper Tales: All Deaths on YouTube or some shit.
Wes suggests that they find out who Caleb and Catherine's birth parents. Michaela is sensitive about the topic and tells Wes everything that's wrong with their fucked up lives is because of him. Wrong! Wes has 75% of what to do with it. Only 75% of it. 50% of it had to do with killing Sam. 15% of it had to do with Rebecca because everyone was so involved in their relationship. 10% of it was Levi. The other 25% is their own shit.
Laurel and Wes go to Frank and just ask him if he murdered Rebecca. All casually. Like, wtf?
Someone is there to talk to Bonnie.
Annalise is still interrogating Jill. Jill says she's good at hiding all the abuse.
Annalise wants to drop the charges because this is a complete hate crime. They have phone records between Jill and Annalise, so they could charge Annalise with being an accessory after the fact.
Bonnie says there's no way they could charge her. Annalise brings up the phone calls. Asher bursts in and says a reporter called him about Tiffany/Trotter Lake.
One question: do these people just answer everyone who fucking calls them? I can't remember the last time I picked up some random number without having a general idea of who it was.
Annalise demands that Bonnie finds out all the dirt against Daddy Doucheface.
Annalise gives the prosecutor involved with the Jill case all the information against Daddy Doucheface to get the charges against Jill dropped.
Annalise and Jill hold hands and Jill says that she's glad her husband is dead. Annalise says she's glad Sam's dead too. Yay for bonding over murdering your husbands together! Annalise says something that tugs at the heartstrings. She says, "Now you can finally be the woman you were meant to be." Don't do this to me, HTGAWM! Don't make me cry over murderers!
Oliver is looking up all the adoption information at Annalise's house. Oh fuck no.
Aunt Helan (the racist, dead aunt) had a secret baby. Annalise brings up that secret baby cousin could have framed them. Of course Racist Aunt had a secret baby. That's exactly what all Racist Aunts have- even mine. I'm joking, My Racist Aunt!
Michaela and Caleb flirt a little bit and it's just.. I want Michaela to date everyone and love herself. Is that fine? No? Sorry.
Nate says that Annalise stole all the time he had with his wife after he pinned murder on him. He says he doesn't care Nate says that he gave Nia the pills because he loved her. I FUCKING KNEW IT.
Annalise sobs outside the door.
Wes comes by and sees her.
Laurel and Frank are walking together. Frank gets upset with her when she accuses him of murder. Which is funny because he is literally a murderer.
Frank took her to go see where she came from.
Wes is doing the famous walk up to his apartment with his bike while some music that isn't the beloved IAMX plays.
Wes accuses Annalise of murdering Rebecca. This leads into a huge scene that really shows how much Alfie has improved as an actor overall- I mean, just compare this to him arguing last season. She brings up his mother and Wes says she's nothing like his mother.
Just as I was thinking about Trotter Lake, Asher and Daddy Doucheface argue. Daddy Doucheface knows they opened investigation up on him. Papa Doucheface says that Asher has to gtfo out of his life because he has 99 problems, but a son who goes behind his back just ain't gonna be one.
Paris Geller is in the garage with Emily. Emily says she gives up, because she can't beat Keating 5 and Annalise and the two murderous misfits. But Emily has a bit of a surprise. You wanna know what happened at Trotter Lake? Gang rape. Which is fucking horrible.
Oliver and Connor are in their apartment and Oliver says he did something bad. He hacked into Phillip's (Racist Aunt's baby) computer. What has me facepalming is that Oliver doesn't have a fucking sticky note on his webcam. Are you fucking serious?!??!??!?!? So guess who is watching? It's not Frank laughing his ass off while drinking Budweiser (I would be a lot less worried then) but Phillip is watching. And he looks like a fucking murderer. Oliver, honey, please... Now he knows that there's two gay men nearby checking out his ass. Do you know how bad this is? Fuck, they're two gays in Philly!
In the flashforward, Frank is disposing of Catherine's body. The police finds it. Catherine wakes up! She isn't dead! Yes, not another Rebecca! Now that we know her fate, what about all these other people?

In the flashforward, Frank is disposing of Catherine's body. The police finds it. Catherine wakes up! She isn't dead! Yes, not another Rebecca! Now that we know her fate, what about all these other people?
i just realized that this is a pretty accurate picture of what watching any of shonda's shows are like. your heart is on a constant roller coaster of fuckery
Predictions I got right:
- Nia died. Sad. Connor is probably going to get murdered after Oliver. Or hopefully Frank finds Oliver so cool that he protects him and kills the guy beforehand. Which would be a much nicer outcome.
- God damn it, no Levi in jail scenes.
- Yeah, Oliver got involved with Annalise's shit, and now he has someone probably wanting to murder him. Phillip is such a creepy murderer name. Just like Frank is a hitman name.
- Laurel was getting suspicious of Frank...
- IT DID HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH OLIVER. GOD FUCKING DAMN IT. Maybe Emily also had something to do with it. Maybe she told him to do it...
- Ooh boy. We still don't know. Thank God Catherine is alive because I love Amy Okuda to death.
- I got the rape part right. Just not the gang rape part. It's really fucked up and I agree with Pete- anyone who isn't disgusted is an awful person.
