How to get away with a murderer summary

The first episode garnered high acclaim by critics and audiences alike, and topped the week of its release with 14 million viewers. Annalise Keating is everything you hope your Criminal Law professor will be - brilliant, passionate, creative and charismatic. She's also everything you don't expect - sexy, glamorous, unpredictable, and dangerous. As fearless in the courtroom as she is in the classroom, Annalise is a defense attorney who represents the most hardened, violent criminals - people who've committed everything from fraud to arson to murder - and she'll do almost anything to win their freedom. On the surface, Annalise seems like she has it all - a successful career and loving husband, Sam - but her relationship with a local Philadelphia detective, Nate , will force her to confront secrets about her life she never saw coming. Each year, Annalise selects a group of the smartest, most promising students to come work at her law firm. The students vying for this coveted position include Wes Gibbins , a wide-eyed, likable boy-next-door recently accepted off the waitlist; Michaela Pratt , a confident, ambitious overachiever born knowing how to "lean in"; Connor Walsh , a sly, sophisticated heartbreaker used to getting any prize he lays his eyes on; Laurel Castillo , a quiet, sensitive idealist who's easy to underestimate; and Asher Millstone , an entitled know-it-all born into a world of Ivy League educations and country club memberships. The students all work under two of Annalise's dedicated associates: Frank Delfino , a local Philly boy done good; and Bonnie Winterbottom , a sweet, observant team-player with a hidden edge. Only Annalise and Frank know that Rebecca was murdered and the two are determined to find out who killed her. Meanwhile, Annalise decides she wants to take on a new client, a brother and sister who are accused of killing their parents. And an old friend surprises Annalise at home and teaches her a valuable lesson. Relationships will be fractured, lies will spin out of control. But when one of the Keating 5 is found dead in Annalise's house all hell will break loose. After Wes ' death, Annalise Viola Davis , Michaela Aja Naomi King , Connor Jack Falahee , Asher Matt McGorry and Laurel Karla Souza all struggle to move on with their lives, but when a new mystery involving one of their own unfolds throughout the season, relationships are fractured, secrets are exposed and yet another terrifying truth is revealed. The show's final season follows Professor Annalise Keating 's Viola Davis class through their final semester in law school — while the deception, fear and guilt binding Professor Keating to her students prove deadlier than ever.

Rebecca Sutter Katie Findlay was a suspect in the murder of her friend, Lila, and soon became Annalise's client and Wes Gibbins' girlfriend.

Over the course of six years and 90 episodes, How to Get Away with Murder took fans on a wild ride with twists and turns around every corner that nobody could've seen coming. And with the added benefit of hindsight, a second viewing may just bring to light all the clues fans might have missed the first time around. And maybe you don't necessarily want to watch chronologically an even loftier plan , so here's a brief synopsis of all six HTGAWM seasons to use as a guide to help keep everything somewhat in order. After landing coveted spots in the Keating 5, the first-year law school interns investigate the murder of Sam Keating 's mistress, Lila Stangard, and also kill Sam — which Annalise helps them cover up. Amid an investigation into the Hapstall siblings, Asher murders DA Emily Sinclair , Frank is revealed to be responsible for the car accident that killed Sam and Annalise's baby, Wes shoots Annalise in the stomach, and Frank kills Wes' newly discovered biological father, Wallace Mahoney. Laurel's close family friend kills Wes , her new boyfriend also — surprise! Recovering from alcoholism, Annalise temporarily cuts ties with Bonnie and the Keating 5, pursues a major Supreme Court class action suit against the State of Pennsylvania for miscarriages of justice with a crossover assist from Scandal 's Olivia Pope , and revives the premature baby Laurel gives birth to in an elevator before the villainous Jorge Castillo claims custody; Asher is also arrested for shooting their classmate Simon Drake.
