With the two-part season finale of How to Get Away With Murder airing this week, it’s time to see if we can guess how it will all end.
In the first season of How to Get Away With Murder there has been no shortage of curve balls thrown our way. Starting with the very first episode when we found out that Sam was going to be murdered, every episode has revealed something crazier than we ever could have imagined. Betting that the writers saved the best for last, we came up with a few predictions of our own for how this season will end.
Here are our predictions:
Rebecca will be found (mostly) innocent
Alright, so Rebecca definitely has something to do with Lila’s death, we have no doubt about that. Between the deal with Rudy, her lying and then tracking Wes’ cell phone, there’s no way she isn’t hiding something. There is one huge reason why we don’t believe Rebecca killed Lila, though, and that is because it would simply be too easy. If Rebecca was the murderer, we can’t imagine it would have that much of an impact on the audience.
Someone else will die
There’s no way we’re leaving this season without a major cliffhanger, and unless the show wants to change its name, we’re guessing a new murder is on the horizon. The question is, who will it be? Considering how Rudy has been popping up more and more each episode, we have a feeling that next season’s mystery will have to do with him. Rudy’s mental state is troubling, but did he get that way just because he helped Rebecca kill Lila? Maybe his and Rebecca’s secret has nothing to do with Lila at all and there’s something else that they’ve done that is even worse.

We discover that Annalise killed Lila
Talk about the mother of all twists. At this point, it only makes sense for someone we already know to be Lila’s killer, but who else would pack a punch as hard as Annalise? So far we’ve seen her betray almost everyone close to her, so it wouldn’t be a complete stretch to pin everything on her.
Are we really supposed to believe that she’s going through all of this trouble in order to protect these students that she barely knows? No, she’s only trying to save herself. We’ve already seen her break down and turn to alcohol and pills for comfort, so it wouldn’t be that surprising if she killed Lila in a drunken rage. It would take a lot of George R.R. Martin-style courage to pull this one off, but if done correctly it could go down in history as one of the biggest twists in television.
