'How To Get Away With Murder' Season 3 News, Updates, Spoilers, Recap: Frank Kills Bonnie's Father; Is Laurel Pregnant with Frank's Baby?
The body count doesn't stop for "How to Get Away with Murder" (HTGAWM) Season 3 as its fourth episode adds another death to its murdered list. This time, it's Bonnie's (Liza Weil) father, who was killed by none other than Frank Delfino (Charlie Weber). But with death comes new life, as the episode's flash forwards reveal that the body found under Annalise's burning house had been Laurel Castillo (Karla Souza), who's pregnant.
What went down: "HTGAWM 3.04: Don't Tell Annalise"
Before all that, "HTGAWM" Season 3 Episode 4 saw to Annalise Keating (Viola Davis) dealing with the freefalling crisis that is her career, after her license got revoked for slapping a client. She had sought refuge in Nate (Billy Brown), who initially tried to comfort Annalise. But Annalise later on lied about being with Bonnie when she was actually out dancing and drinking with Eve (Famke Janssen).
Nate and Annalise soon became embroiled in an explosive parting scene. Nate laid burn after burn on the drunk Annalise as he called her out for not being as clever as she thinks she is. Annalise, being drunk, wasn't as snide as she thought she was. Nate had the last word, however; he told Annalise that when she dies, she'll be alone, and no one will care.
Frank's whereabouts
Meanwhile, in a twisted scene that's horrifying even for "HTGAWM", Frank, who was currently in Coalport as Laurel had previously found out, had murdered Bonnie's father for all those years of pain he had caused her many years ago.
Frank brought in a tank of hydrogen sulfide into the prison that held Bonnie's father and as he suffocated, Frank menacingly told him that his death won't make up for what he's done to Bonnie growing up. Bonnie found out, and though she and Laurel eventually figure out that Frank is behind all this, Bonnie warned her friend not to tell Annalise.
Later on in the "HTGAWM" Season 3 Episode 4, it's revealed that Laurel was actually the body found underneath Annalise's burning house. She's taken to the hospital where another survivor, Meggie, Wes' girlfriend, tended to her. But seeing as Laurel is pregnant, could Frank be the father, especially since she's been tracking Frank's whereabouts?
