Viola Davis gets an Emmy nomination for Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her role as criminal defense attorney and criminal law professor Annalise Keating in "How to Get Away with Murder." During last year's Emmy Awards, the actress took home the trophy for the same category.

Meanwhile, after some shocking events that took place in the season finale of "How to Get Away with Murder," Season 3 will be back this September.

Frank Delfino Will Be Back

The last episode showed Laurel Castillo (Karla Souza) drunkenly accused Annalise for ordering Frank Delfino (Charlie Weber) to kill Lila Stangard (Megan West), which very much surprised Annalise.

Another scene was shown where Laurel went back to Frank's apartment and realized that Frank was gone. Fans then speculated that Frank went away and would never come back after knowing that Annalise already knew he killed Lila. But Weber clarified that Frank's character will still be featured on future episodes of the show, but working with Annalise again will not be a possibility anymore. Davis also stated that Annalise and Frank won't cross paths again.

Fans of the show finally understood what Sam Keating (Tom Verica) meant when he told Frank "You owe me," after seeing Frank accept a bribe from Wallace Mahoney (Adam Arkin) that lead to the suicide of Wes Gibbins' (Alfred Enoch) mother's and Annalise being involved in a staged car accident resulting to the death of her child.

Wallace Mahoney and Wes Gibbins' Parental Relations

During the finale, Annalise gave Wes some documents that would shed some light on who his father is and why his mother committed suicide. It was also shown that Annalise was present while Wes' mother slit her throat and she failed to call 911. This also stopped the question about Wes killing his own mother. After finding out that Wallace may be his father, Wes then set forth to meeting his father, and without further ado, a shot was fired, blood sputtered all over Wes' face, and Wallace fell to the ground.

Now fans can't wait for the upcoming season to find answers about who killed Wallace and if he is really Wes' biological father.

Edited-out LGBTQ Scene Will Be Aired Again in Full

In Italy, a female editor mistakenly removed an intimate scene involving Connor Walsh (Jack Falahee) and partner Oliver (Conrad Ricamora), but the episode is said to be aired again. Italian director Corriere Della Sera said that one of his staff edited out a scene without his knowledge and approval. An Italian fan caught Falahee's attention on Twitter, addressing the episode to be aired. Falahee then posted on Twitter, saying, " WE ended censorship in this case. YOU ALL inspire me. Thank you for your voices! #loveislove."
