Going back to last week on How to Get Away with Murder, Bonnie is revealed to be the person who pushed Perky Prosecutor off the balcony to splat to her death. I’m with Bonnie on this one. The kids all run back into the house and Connor wants no part of this situation. Bonnie says get on board or you will be the next dead body. Yeah, I’d believe her, Connor. BELIEVE HER. Bonnie takes the gun from Wes.
I will SO make you my bitch.
And NOW we’re back to 3 days earlier. Bonnie is in the shower freaking out that Annalise told Asher about her daddy issues, and she’s not answering the phone or coming to work. We see a flashback to her fight with Annalise from last week. And that is pretty much all the Bonnie time we’ll get this week, but she probably needs a break from all the murdering.
Nate stops by to see Annalise, because, you know, why not? Then the kids stop by the office, freaking out because Oliver is missing…but he left behind the split milk (don’t cry!) and his phone, and the door to the apartment was open, so Connor is pretty sure Oliver was kidnapped by Philip, the orphans sort-of cousin.
Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti D’OH!
Frank jokes that maybe Oliver took off to cheat on Connor, and you know it’s bad when Annalise gives him the stink eye for how rude that was. The kids all start to yell at each other about calling the police, figuring Perky is going to get them all for everything, and guess who shows up right as they are making the missing person’s call? The missing person – Oliver! With Philip! And everybody is fine! Other than shitting their respective pants.
So yo! We’re dating now!
Turns out Oliver and Philip headed over to the Soup Palace to “talk” and Oliver filled him in on what he could with the orphan case. Philip tells them that he knows he’s weird, people have always said that, but his biological parents live in Iowa and he’s not a murderer. He’s pissed about them hacking into his stuff, so he’s thinking about going to the police on all of them.
Wanna new banjo, Deliverance?
Annalise tries to buy him off by asking what he wants (my guess is a few more chromosomes should be at the top of his list) and he says he needs to think about it. Much like the Christmas list for Santa. So he’ll be in touch! And he takes off.
Frank says he’ll tail him but Annalise has turned on him since he screwed things up in the first place, and she doesn’t want him near this. Nate says he’ll track Philip. Connor wants Oliver to trash his computer before “Boo Radley” goes to the police. You know they don’t need the physical computer to track your online activities, right?
Michaela is checking out the sofa and says maybe Philip left some hair or skin cells they can have checked against the DNA to see if he’s lying about his Iowa parents. Oliver pulls a straw out of his pocket and explains that Philip has 4 sodas at the Soup Palace, so won’t that work? Well, that does explain why Philip left so quickly, he probably had to pee.
Michaela is signing off on a bunch of boxes being delivered to the law offices (probably discovery for their current trial that they never thought to ask about or go through), and Asher is pissing and moaning that ONCE AGAIN, they didn’t call him for the cool situations, like murders and cyberstalking freaks. He side-mouths to Annalise that he screwed up with Bonnie and she’s like, no shit, bitch, but we’re not worrying about your love life right now.
Annalise asks Frank about the DNA test and he’s headed over now. Annalise says that Bonnie would have already been at the lab. Too bad she’s called in sick, then, isn’t it? He takes “Doucheface” and Asher asks if everyone can please retire that nickname. Nope.
Annalise tells Laurel that Bonnie called in “sick” and she needs her to be the new Bonnie. Does that mean Laurel has to start murdering people on her own now?
Asher whines to Frank about Bonnie, and Frank says his junk just inverted listening to him. Or maybe it was just hearing about Bonnie.
They are at the DNA lab and he’s begging a tech to push through the DNA and she tells him she really can’t. The pregnant tech complains that she and her husband and their kid are still stuck in their 1-bedroom and now another mouth is coming along. Like Frank cares. But he uses the moment to try and persuade her to fast-track the DNA with the offer of a duplex rental for her growing family, but it doesn’t work. Frank is losing his smooth-talking technique!
BTW, neither one of us is the dad of your unborn child, are we?
Nate tails Philip and he goes to some job where he wears an apron. Probably Applebee’s.
