FLASH FORWARD: 2 WEEKS LATER

The moments right after Sam died are a blur. One minute, Sam is trying to choke out Rebecca, and the next he's laying in a pile of his own blood.

All of us had different reactions. Michaela broke down instantly. She started sobbing uncontrollably repeating "He's dead! He's dead!"

Connor sprung into action right away. He was trying to figure out what to do next.

Laurel went silent. She just stared at everything and everyone. She couldn't figure out where to go or what to do.

Wes went right to Rebecca's side and aided her in whatever way he could.

Me, on the other hand, I was a mix of Laurel and Connor. I was instantly trying to think of what to do next, but I kind of went numb. I watched everything unfold, took a couple seconds to adjust, and then started barking orders on how to fix this.

2 WEEKS EARLIER

Rebecca is back. Frank had been MIA all of last week and then it came up in the news that Lila's phone was magically found in Griffin's car. I'm not saying they're mutually exclusive, but just call it a hunch.

Rebecca sat in front of all of us and explained her side of the story.

"Griffin called me around midnight, asked if I had anything I could sell him. So, I went to the frat house and sold him some coke and molly. He invited me to hang out, so we started drinking, doing some lines. Griffin said he had some pot so we went up to his room to smoke a bowl. Next thing I know, we're kissing. Um...we had just started when Lila came in. Apparently, I texted her, which I have no memory of. I just remember Lila yelling, hitting me. Griffin pulled her off. I tried to find her to explain what happened and apologize, but I couldn't. Until I got to the roof. Then I strangled her and stuffed her in a water tank." Rebecca went on. We all stared at her for a moment before she started laughing. "Oh my gosh, you guys are so gullible."

"Rebecca, take this prep seriously or go to jail." Annalise told her.

"Isn't it kind of your job to make sure that doesn't happen?" Rebecca challenged.

All of the sudden, Annalise's entire demeanor changed. "You slut, white trash killer. You made Griffin strangle that girl on the roof. You liked watching her die because that's the piece of garbage you are!" She yelled in Rebecca's face before backing up a step. "That's what everyone in the world is gonna say about you. You don't care, neither do I. I'm not the one that's gonna be beaten, raped and violated in jail. That's on you. So, what happened the night of Friday, August the 29th? Start from the beginning."

Jesus.

Rebecca just stared at Annalise. No one spoke for a minute.

"Maybe we should take a break." Wes suggested. I think I need a shot.
