History WMG / HowToGetAwayWithMurder

[[WMG: The second half of season 1 will flash forward to the students on trial]]

** Jossed; Michaela (who's waaay douchier than Asher) and Laurel want to make him walk in so he can implicate himself, but Wes josses it.
*** Partially true; Michaela was actually the one to text Asher and tell him to meet her at the library, thus getting him away from the crime scene. Connor, Laurel, and Rebecca (and possibly Wes, I can't quite remember but I think he was against it) were in favor getting Asher to walk in.

* Well, Oliver is the only one he's pretending to be a drug addict for. It's not part of his official alibi or anything (yet).

He'll have to get some stuff in his system and learn lingo and everything in order to be able to seem like an addict in therapy, but along they way will [[BecomingTheMask become the mask]].

Those scratch marks have been featured too many times, and Rebecca spent several episodes mentioning the guy. Since he was a law student too, maybe he was in Annalise's class at some point.

* Not possible. Annalise says she and Sam have been together for 20 years. So unless Sam married Bonnie when she was a teenager...

He comes off as having a crush on Connor, seems to be awfully curious about his love life, and comments he wishes he were gay. Considering his background, it's entirely plausible that Asher doesn't even realize bisexuality is a "thing."

Annalise's firm is a front for Weapon X and the death of her husband was a requirement vehicle. The five students will be transformed into a MindHive, and go crazy as a result. How do you get away with murder? By being becoming walking talking undead cancer.

I got nothing. Just a hunch.

If he realizes/thinks (depending on how truthful Connor was in 1x09) that Connor used him as an alibi, well... if you thought him kicking Connor out of his apartment was [[TheDogBitesBack the dog biting back]], you haven't seen anything yet.

I got nothing. Just a hunch.

* Considering Connor's other [[TheHedonist hedonistic]] tendencies, this wouldn't surprise me.

On the night of Sam's murder, Connor returns to Oliver's place in a frenzied panic and promises to tell him everything, then after taking a shower and calming himself, he opts to tell Oliver he has a drug problem instead of admitting his involvement in Sam's death and disappearance. This could be a way of diverting attention from the truth because while it certainly isn't all that pleasant or noble sounding, it's far less damning and could still work as an alibi in the future. HOWEVER, it's also possible that he's telling Oliver the truth for once. Connor could have actually tried a new concoction of drugs in order to help cram and study for exams as they were planning to do, and it would help explain how his behavior went off-kilter even earlier into the night before any traumatic events occurred. It works so well at explaining his behavior that it feels almost too good of a cover to be entirely false.

He joins Annalise's firm while knowing that he'll have to shed some of his morals, and goes from sweet, naive and upset when he thinks that Annalise is bribing him to ready and willing to lie and manipulate Michaela, Laurel and Connor into helping him get rid of a body in a few months. He could have done similarly dark things before, given how he seems to be willing to do anything if it's to help Rebecca.

[[WMG: Asher is [[spoiler: Sam's killer]].

It explains a good amount of her actions and makes sense given how emotionally she reacts around her compared to everyone else.

* Or they'll offer her a lot of money.

* I hope the writers have Asher do something really unforgivable if that ends up being the case. "Guy is sort of a jerk --> plant evidence for a murder on him" will not exactly make people like our heroes.

She will either be convinced that they didn't do it, cares too much for them, or simply doesn't care that [[spoiler: Sam]] is dead.

As much as she seems to like Annalise, it's obvious that she cares a hell of a lot about Sam, and she's going out of her way to protect him. Maybe [[spoiler: despite not being married to him any more, she's still holding a torch]], so she works for Annalise to stay close to him.

They used his statue to kill [[spoiler:Mr. Keating]], are trying to return it, and he was seen shouting and banging on the door to Annalise's house, there were likely people that witnessed that. May be their payback for him being such a douche.

Hear me out. The main four walked into Annalise's house an stumble upon the body of [[spoiler:her husband]] and assume Annalise did it. They scramble to cover it up, while Bonnie used [[spoiler:her rendezvous with Asher]] as an alibi.

He seems to be a skilled hacker, and it's established he and Connor are still on good terms by the night of the murder. I'd be shocked if there weren't security cams somewhere near Annalise's house. Perhaps Oliver's skills will be used to cover up evidence, or plant it on someone else.

* Some [[spoiler: cancers]] can cause infertility, which could explain why she and Sam are having problems having a child.
