HTGAWM begins with Nate (Billy Brown) telling Bonnie (Liza Weil) that he found a big ring on him and that size of purchase will not go unnoticed. They try to work out their stories but Bonnie reminds him that Asher (Matt McGorry) saw them at the wedding. Michaela ((Aja Naomi King) wants to know why Bonnie is messaging Asher, while Laurel (Karla Souza) doesn’t think obsessing over Gabriel (Rome Flynn), the man who could “blow them all up” is such a bad idea. Oliver wants to know where Michaela’s power and pride were when she sent a gay student back to Pakistan.
Gabe arrives, wanting to talk to Michaela, to explain why he ditched her at the wedding. He tells them all he went to see Annalise (Viola Davis) after the wedding and reveals he is Sam Keating’s father and the reason he is in town is to see what they can tell him about Sam. He tells them everything he knows as Michaela feels he manipulated them. He hasn’t bought into the story that Sam killed Wes (Alfred Enoch), Laurel is in tears saying she loved Wes and she believes all of it. Connor (Jack Falahee) stands up and tells Gabe to leave, which Oliver (Conrad Ricamora) agrees with so he doesn’t see Connor get really angry. Gabe apologizes before he leaves. Asher says he needs to borrow some fresh underwear.
Annalise takes Frank’s (Charlie Weber) phone, saying she is cutting both him and Eve Rothlow (Famke Janssen) off. Frank tells the Keating 5 that he and Annalise are handling Gabriel; Ollie says he wants it and if he doesn’t give him the information he will simply hack in anyways. At home, Annalise researches everything on Gabriel that she has received when Eve walks in. She blurts out that Vanessa is pregnant, but it is the last thing she wanted to be telling Annalise. Annalise guesses that she just never wanted to have one with Annalise. She wants Vanessa to be happy but she confronts Annalise, saying she knows she has been drinking again; seeing it from the moment she walked in the door. She wants Annalise to take responsibility for her own mistakes or she will remain unhappy.
Nate talks to Asher about what he saw between him and Miller. Asher says he only saw them go behind the tent, but Nate insists he didn’t see Nate with Miller, it was Bonnie who was with Miller. When Asher says he needs to know the truth, Bonnie shows him the photo that proves Miller is the one who ordered the murder of Nate Sr. She reminds Asher of how many times Nate helped him and now it is his time to help him.
Nate says once Monday comes, everything is going to move fast. Once his emergency contacts can’t be reached, the protocol will be to open a missing person’s report opened immediately. They will do a sweep of his office and then an APB on his car and everything. Asher arrives at work and learns that Ron Miller is missing, as his assistant says it is just like Denver all over again. The Special Agents will want to speak to Bonnie, as she is the last person to speak to him. She acts surprised to learn that DA Miller is missing. Bonnie spins her story that they were seeing each other, but they had a fight on Saturday night and maybe he took time off to sort things out.
Eve stays with Annalise, as they continue to investigate everything about Vivian, Gabriel’s mother. She feels that Annalise deserves some peace and goes to answer the door but it is Emmett Crawford (Timothy Hutton), her boss who has been served for a deposition. He says it is now her time to get behind this and be of good use to him. Annalise assures him everything is okay as she is just enjoying her company.
Back at C&G, Emmett asks Tegan (Amirah Vann) about Eve, learning she is one of the best death penalty attorneys. Tegan admits that Annalise is always up to something, but not necessarily bad. Michaela wants Asher to get files from the DA, Asher tells her to stop worrying and advises against her bugging Bonnie right now.
Connor works with Michaela, watching Gabriel from his apartment. He thinks Gabe might be playing them but she says they would be stupid to think that. Connor says she needs to tell her son that Wes was a good guy who took a great fall for his real friends. Connor tells baby Christopher that his father was a superhero, and how cool was that?
Nate watches Officer Wagner, who fired the shot that killed his father, he exits the car in the parking garage and begins to beat him between the cars. Shortly thereafter, with his hand bandaged up, Nate is questioned about what happened and then if he was aware that DA Miller has gone missing. He says he was the one who ordered the inquest on those guards, but they think it might be a ploy. He makes them question the coincidence on how Miller was having them investigated and now he is missing?
Eve tells Annalise that if she is with Nate, she supports it; or if she needs her own Vanessa. Annalise says Eve’s privilege lets her be gay whereas Annalise is black from the damn bible belt and she needs to stop figuring out what it is that makes Annalise happy as she needs to do that on her own.
Michaela begins working on the wrongful death suit for Nate Sr. Gabe approaches her, saying everything he said to her that night was the truth, but she feels he was played like a basic bitch side piece. She calls him an idiot for thinking otherwise, but he plays the adopted card and she tells him that isn’t going to work. He leaves and she calls Nate, leaving a message about his dad’s case.
Asher asks about any leads, thinking about the time Miller’s phone just kept dying and wonders if Miller ever got the upgrade. He works the assistant, saying they should get him the upgrade, just to keep up the faith. Bonnie and Nate bump into each other but don’t exchange words. Asher stops Bonnie saying that Ron’s battery was busted and there could have been any reason he used the payphone that day and what if Nate was wrong. Bonnie demands that he stops making her feel worse than she already does as it is clear Ron was a bad guy.
Michaela stops Tegan with an offer to get the board to love her again, presenting her the civil suit for Nate Sr. She hasn’t spoken to Nate Jr but wants Tegan on board first; she says she will think about it but wants to know why Annalise would be meeting with Eve. She reveals they were friends from Harvard and even hints that they may have had a sexual relationship. Something Tegan finds very intriguing.
Bonnie gathers all the little notes she has from Ron, as her eyes well up with tears. She quickly pulls herself together and goes to see ADA Seth Keough (Dave Shalansky), revealing that she and Ron were in a relationship. She tells him she heard Ron in a phone call with Gordon Sykes, but doesn’t want to raise it up with the FBI if she is being paranoid. She knows he is monitoring the prison for the corruption case and just wants to listen to the one call, at least so she can ease her mind; she gives him the date and time.
Frank sits with Annalise and Eve, where they work on their tactics. Annalise goes to see Gabriel, saying they need to talk. She hands him an envelope where he reads how Paul Desoto died unexpectedly at the age of 48. He was Vivian’s ex and it was kept under wraps because of the drugs. Annalise tells him she is giving it to him because she wants to help him; she feels guilty because it wasn’t just Sam but her too that hurt Vivian. She wants Gabriel’s help to protect his mother, asking if he will.
Tegan approaches Emmett at the office, telling him about a potential new case. She asks if he is okay with her taking on the state since Annalise is too busy to take the case; he promises to review it. She smiles and says that Annalise and Eve were law school girlfriends; both bug each other about having a chance with Annalise and wishing each other a good night.
Annalise returns home to see Eve is packed and ready to leave but promising to be a plane ride away. Annalise says she can handle it and will come when the baby arrives. Eve wants her to come so she can introduce her to some nice, hot friends. They two hugs and then kiss as Eve warns her to keep her eyes open.
Gabe gets out of the shower, receiving a call from the FBI about a voicemail he left for DA Ronald Miller, asking him to contact them as soon as possible. Bonnie watches the news as Seth comes in, saying she doesn’t know who gave her the information. She holds the thumb drive as the Keating 5 sit down and watch how Miller is reported officially missing. Frank calls Nate, saying it is all over the news and he needs to tell her. He walks into Annalise’s place while Bonnie plays the recording. Connor asks Laurel if her father is the one who killed Miller but Michaela insists it was Bonnie, who had blood on her leg and Michaela agrees, demanding answers from Asher. He quickly breaks, telling them it was Nate!
Nate tells Annalise that Ron kept lying to his face and he lost it; it was like he wasn’t even there, with no control. Annalise is concerned the governor is going to come after them even harder now, but Nate says that isn’t true since it was the governor who came after Miller and got Miller to take out his pops and then took out Miller to prevent him from squealing. Bonnie hears the call from Ron, who was simply thanking for the easy transfer for Nate Sr. since Nate worked for him. Bonnie is devastated.
THE END!
