It seems that fans were right all along that Kodie Chartrand (Sera-Lys McArthur) was being framed. The latest episode of 'Burden Of Truth' explored different possibilities on who could be framing Kodie, and Joanna (Kristin Kreuk) was able to give Kodie the little ray of sunshine and hope she was expecting. However, while Joanna struggles to bring her friend to justice, she has been having a rather hard time. For starters, she's kept the news of her own pregnancy to herself and hasn't informed Billy (Peter Mooney). At the end of the episode, worn out by all that's going on in Millwood and the rife in the families, Billy vows to never have kids. Just at that moment, Joanna decides to reveal to him that she is pregnant. The episode ends on a cliffhanger, and we'll have to wait for a week to find out how Billy will react to this news. Their relationship might just face a crisis, as Joanna also has that job offer from her ex-husband to consider and while accepting that shouldn't create havoc in her and Billy's relationship, this difference in opinion on babies just certainly might lead to tensions. Yet, maybe that's too much of speculation, and Billy might just warm up to the idea.

Meanwhile, fans were glad that Joanna finally told Billy, but are worried about how he will react. "Billy and Joanna in that final scene. OOF. #BurdenofTruth," a fan tweeted. "Well, that was an awkward ending. I'm never having kids. I'm pregnant. #BurdenofTruth," another fan wrote. "I loved how that just came out," tweeted a fan. "Ahhhhhhhhh!!! That ending though!!! Billy finally knows #BurdenOfTruth #BurdenS4," another wrote. "'I am never having kids.' - Billy 'I’m pregnant.' - Joanna Perfect timing," a fan wrote, with several laughing emoticons. Meanwhile, other fans appreciated Joanna's conversations with Kodie and her understanding of justice. Some quoted her dialogue, "I love this scene!! @SeraLysMcArthur @MsKristinKreuk 'The system isn’t broken. It’s working exactly as intended, so we don’t need to fix it, we need to break it. This is my arena, Kodi. I can see a way through this now. This is how we win.' #BurdenOfTruth," another fan wrote.

So will we see a final conclusion to the case anytime soon? What does Billy and Joanna's future look like?

'Burden Of Truth' airs on CW, Thursdays at 8 pm.
