5. It's About Frank

Annalise attends only one AA meeting, where she finds the university president, Soraya Hargrove, who is also a recovering alcoholic. After suddenly reminiscing over her memories of Sam, Annalise starts drinking again. She later discovers that one of her students, Simon Drake, is the one behind the flyers. She threatens Hargrove with a lawsuit for neglecting the flyers (among various other charges), strong-arming her into reinstating her teaching position. Bonnie heads to Coalport to have her father's corpse cremated and thank Frank for killing him. Frank wants Bonnie to join him in his escape and they later have sex.

The next morning, Bonnie finds Frank gone and cries. Wes tells Laurel that he is considering breaking up with Meggy upon realizing that the group is too complicated for him to involve her. Laurel later confronts Annalise about Frank just as Bonnie walks in. Flashback: The Keating couple first encounters Frank, who was serving an unspecified sentence for attempting to kill his father when he was 13 years old. Flashforward: Still in the hospital as Laurel's condition is critical, Bonnie receives a call from someone. A panicked Oliver tries to reach Connor, whose phone is somehow in Michaela's house and is picked up by her foster mother Trishelle. At the same time, the news reveals that the dead body is a male.
