This must violate some screenwriting dictum or rule.
I feel like Shonda herself stands over her writers and shouts,FASTER!
FASTER, YOU FOOLS!
Guys, so much happened.
Also, they made us look at that lil sad baby so many times.
I cant look at that tiny baby again.
Lets get into it.
Thats a pretty good place to start the second half of the season.
Everything is on fire and were all gonna die.
Annalise doesnt know there was a shooting and Connor doesnt know where the baby is.
So theres a lot of very emotional phone conversations in the dark outside of hospitals and law offices.
Everyone fill each other in and well wait.
This feels like a really low-key version ofThe Avengersassembling.
When Frank shows up to the hospital, hes freaking out.
Frank says that hes the father.
That is a black baby.
Thats a whole-ass black baby.
I mean … everything shes done this entire season?
Oh, were pretending theyre humans and they dont ascribe to seasons of television.
Then Annalise sees the thing thats going to mess this whole thing up: Laurels dad.
It was only a matter of time before this motherfucker showed up and ruined everything.
Hes gotten a judge to give him custody and everyone knows that isnt Franks baby.
The officer from DHS got the results of the paternity test and … Frank isnt the father.
Frank goes to wake Laurel up.
Then Annalise calls Jimmy Smits to help her go through the documents and get Laurel off a psych hold.
Laurels father said she was on cocaine and had a history of harmful mental illness.
Laurels father is terrible.
Asher told the police that he touched the gun because they always find DNA evidence.
Why not own up to it?
Dead men tell no tales, right?
Well see about that later, hmmm??!?!?!
While Michaela is leaving, Teagan stops her in the elevator and asks exactly how Simon got her keycard.
She tells Michaela that she isnt as good a liar as she thinks.
Laurel finally wakes up and demands to see her baby.
Annalise charges Laurels dad to stop the baby from being transferred into his care.
I feel like this is a blame everyone kind of situation.
Laurel will never recover if he gets away with this.
He turns around and says, Tough titty, Ms. Keating.
The hospital straps Laurel down and drugs her up.
Jimmy Smits stumbles upon Michaela looking at the nursery and he thinks shes Annalise.
Bonnie walks into the crime scene at the law office.
WEVE NOW SEEN ALL THE PARTS FROM ALL THE OTHER EPISODES.
WEVE PIECED IT TOGETHER.
THE TIMELINES HAVE CONVERGED.
THE AVENGERS HAVE ASSEMBLED.
Bonnie goes to see Oliver to find the hard drive.
Its the only thing that could incriminate all of them, but Oliver doesnt know what happened to Laurel.
Laurel says she doesnt deserve to be anyones mother if she was stupid enough to go with the plan.
Because Laurels dad took the baby, Annalise explains, he must think they still have the hard drive.
Its time for them to start playing five-dimensional chess and figure out how to stay ahead of Laurels dad.
Annalise doesnt wanna hear it.
Shes in NO MOOD so she screams that hes the reason why his daughter killed herself.
Bonnie snaps that they cant keep holding Asher because shes his ex-girlfriend.
Oh,nowshe wants to acknowledge the relationship?
Asher shows up and reveals that Simon is alive.
Hes in a coma, but hes alive.
The Keating Gang immediately start scheming to see to it Simon never wakes up.
Oliver realizes for the umpteenth time that the Keating Gang are evil.
How many times can you come to this realization, Oliver?
Has it really not sunk in yet?
Meanwhile, Laurel comes up with a plan and Annalise is not into that either.
She wants to find Dominick and have him get the baby back … somehow.
Frank decided to torture him and Dominick taunted him a little too much and now Dominick is dead.
Laurel finds out when she tries to call Dominick and his phone rings in Franks pocket.
And he said that theyre all in trouble.
That was and will continue to be A LOT.
