Even if they didn’t actually kill anyone.

They are to say they did it under the influence of Annalise and testify against her.

If not, they’ll be faced with a potential life sentence.

How To Get Away With Murder

Kelsey McNeal/ABC

It’s beautiful, if perhaps a little unexpected, and leaves us with a lot of questions.

Be it from the Castillos, Annalise and Bonnie/Frank, or the FBI?

That theme continues in these next six episodes, so things are not good.

They’re probably at like a 15 out of 10 right now.

Connor insists hes not faking that panic attack.

But is that true?

Oh, I don’t really believe anything Connor says.

Coincidentally, I had my first panic attack while filming season 6 ofMurder, unrelated to filming.

Why did Connor ultimately take the deal?

Was it a difficult decision in the end?

No, I don’t think it is.

It’s a culmination of his festering resentment toward Annalise over the course of law school.

Connor probably more than anyone has had problems with Annalise and has been pretty vocal about them.

Might that come back to be an issue for them later?

Those factors are definitely at play.

This is probably a conversation that you have with a partner and/or your parents.

What lawyers they hire.

It definitely all comes into this big mixing pot.

Yeah, Michaela is ridiculous… what an absurd fear!

You’re being charged with murder!

How much can we count on Ollie waiting, or that being something Connor will even still want?

I don’t know.

I mean, that’s that’s tough, right?

But I’m sure Connor and Oliver want to stay together.

How might he get involved?

Which I think is something we’ll see in the next couple episodes as well.

A lot of this feels very guilt-motivated, particularly over any role Connor played in getting Oliver involved.

But hes also very loyal to Michaela, in spite of Oliver urging him not to be.

Where did that act of loyalty come from, and his insistence the deal be offered to Michaela regardless?

Were you surprised he was willing to stick his neck out for her like that and vice versa?

I wasn’t surprised.

I think that they have had the closest bond since the beginning.

That’s not really saying much because Wes is dead, Laurel is who-knows-where, Asher’s dead.

She’s kind of the only one left.

But I think there is a genuine love between these two friends.

And while Connor feels very guilty, that love comes into question.

Whenever someone feels guilty about anything, it’s sort of a selfish thing in most cases.

Will Connor choose to give over to that selfishness, or will he choose others above themselves?

Might they have a face-off?

Oh yeah, for sure.

I mean, Annalise has to get what’s coming to her from Connor.

They’ll definitely be some some words, if not more, exchanged.

Theres still this sticking point of lying and saying Annalise ordered them to kill Sam.

Might Connor still shift on that, or is he committed to the lie at this point?

Yeah, it’s a pretty big lie.

There’s movement, for sure.

I think that eats away at different people more than others.

And there are definitely actions that are taken in directions.

That’s pretty vague.

How much can Connor and Michaela trust him?

Is he bad news?

I don’t know if Connor knows that.

I don’t know that Connor is privy to Solomon’s involvement.

So you could imagine the legal counsel that we retain might be different.

Still, is there any chance Connor could be involved in Ashers death?

But yeah, there’s always a possibility, for sure.

I mean, look, he was bludgeoned by my husband in our house.
