History TearJerker / HowToGetAwayWithMurder

** The full story of [[spoiler:how Wes died. Alone, drugged, and begging for help. Choked to death on a rag and then burnt like trash, with Annalise trying to paint him as a violent sociopathic murdered DrivenToSuicide out of guilt. He's basically doomed to be remembered as a criminal, not the good guy that his friends knew him to be.]]

*** [[spoiler: The fact that Laurel is pregnant with his child, and now has to live with the fact that the last time she spoke to Wes, they got into a fight.]]

*** [[spoiler: Fortunately, it's revealed in the following episode that he didn't go throught with it.]]

** We learn who is under the sheet. [[spoiler:It's Wes. And everyone is visibly floored and freaking out about it: All of the Keating Five break down into tears, Annalise is inconsolably shrieking the word "No", Bonnie is reluctant to say a word to anyone about it, and even former police officer Nate is visibly disturbed by the sight of Wes' burned body.]]

*** [[spoiler: The way the flash-forward at the end occurs suggests that he went through with it.]]

** Bonnie's backstory: [[spoiler:Her father sexually abused her and put it all online]] This drives Asher to tears.
** Asher becoming greatly (and justly) upset at his father for only thinking of himself when [[spoiler:is about to sign an immunity agreement.]] Their relationship has only gotten worse.

** [[spoiler: Frank's harrowing confrontation with Annalise. After being rejected by both Bonnie and Laurel, he just sits there and cries while Annalise finally gets to unload on him for his part in the death of her unborn son. The episode ends with Frank getting ready to ''kill himself'', with Annalise screaming for him to do it and Bonnie tearfully begging him to stop.]]

* Episode 2.05

** Annalise gets into a terrible drinking spiral and spends the day curled in bed remembering her relationship with Sam before everything went wrong.

* [[spoiler: Connor and Oliver breaking up, due to Ollie finally realizing that their experiences with Annalise have turned them into different, destructive people.]]

** [[spoiler: "His name was Sam."]]

[[spoiler: "His name was Sam."]]

*** This is intercut with [[spoiler:Annalise tearfully confessing to Wes the circumstances of his mother's death.]]

** [[spoiler: The flashback to the day Annalise lost her baby. She got into a car accident and had an emergency Caesarean, but the baby had already died. It's hard to watch Annalise break down, wailing over her baby son's body and apologizing to a distraught Sam, blaming herself for their child's death.]]

** [[spoiler: The defendant has a MyGodWhatHaveIDone moment and tearfully confesses to the victim's mother that the killing was intentional. What makes it worse? To cover up the crime, he texted "I luv you" to her so she'd think her son was still alive]]. Even Michaela sheds a tear upon hearing this.

** [[spoiler: Laurel breaking into tears when she can't get a hold of Wes, and wonders out loud if Asher would have killed Sinclair if any of them had taken the time to check on him.]]

** The way the Keating Five end the episode, all various flavor of broken and shocked.

*** This moment isn't exactly helped by the fact that, when Michaela makes a plan to call him to check on him, they all discover that none of them actually have his number. This obviously means that none of them talk to him outside of work or class and probably actively ignore him in their day-to-day lives.

** Asher's father [[spoiler: killing himself to avoid the investigation into it. The way Asher has kind of shut down from it and the fact that his mother practically disowns him out of blaming him for it.]] The FreakOut he has in his car after all this is an entirely believeable one.

** Connor's breakdown over [[spoiler: Oliver's disappearance]] while everyone else but Annalise is being dismissive about it. In fact, Annalise, although begrudgingly, has Nate initiate a missing person search while reassuring Connor that everything will be fine.

** Nate's [[spoiler:wife dies. Not from the breast cancer, but because he gave her a MercyKilling.]]

** Bonnie discovers that Annalise told Asher about [[spoiler:her past history of sexual abuse by her father. She angrily tells Annalise that she's ruined the only good thing in her life, and that she wants Annalise to die.]]
