This article contains spoilers for season 6, episode 3.

Tonight's episode of 'How to Get Away with Murder' season 6 episode 3 ended on a terrifying note.

In true Connor Walsh style, the character was seen breaking down into hysterical laughter right at the very final scene of the episode, inside what looked like an interrogation room. Connor was shown a photograph which leads to his hysterical laughter at first but soon turned into a paranoid outburst of tears before he began convulsing, he then clutched his chest and collapsed on the floor as if he was having a seizure. And while fans have speculated that could have been either a heart attack or an anxiety attack from whatever the photo showed, they also claimed that after the many curveballs the episode has thrown at them, they were left pretty much crying-laughing into convulsion the way Connor was.

Right the end of the episode, the little flashforward session where Annalise is believed to have died, a line popped up for a minute, with the hashtag at the left corner, reading 'Who killed Annalise'. A direct guess in the scenario would be Connor being brought into an interrogation as a suspect or someone with knowledge about Annalise's murder. He is probably being shown a photo of her, to which he reacts so hysterically, just the way he had all the way back in season 1, upon being shown Sam Keating's body. 

Taking to Twitter with their several speculations, fans came up with theories on what Connor was possibly shown before he unraveled so catastrophically. Twitter user @DivaAviva believes: "Annalise is not dead (the picture Connor saw wasn’t shown). He didn’t kill her. I’m convinced. Wes is still alive (no body was ever found) and now, perhaps, someone killed Ollie & that’s the pic he saw. The FBI is in with Antares." Is it likely that after all that Connor and Oliver have been through to acquire their teeny tiny bit of happily ever after, the show will take it away from him again? User @NyraGaia, however, has another solid theory, which asks: "What if the informant was Laurel (or for some reason Oliver) and that’s why Connor has the heart attack/stroke?? ALSO they didn’t show who was in that picture! THEREFORE, Annalise is NOT DEAD until we see the body! Basic TV/Movie commandments guys." 

But this debunking the Annalise is dead theory isn't the only reaction in the fandom. Other fans who apparently just broke down watching Jack Fallahee's incredible portrayal of Connor in that panic-struck scene, just want to know if Connor is okay and are extremely concerned about him. Speaking for those, user @TenderTimothee asked: "Is Connor okay? I need reassurance I haven’t stopped crying." The only reason for this concern is because of the unbelievable way Fallahee executed the breakdown, establishing why he is the real MVP on the show right after Viola Davis as Annalise. And his portrayal along with the twists and turns this episode has thrown also made fans claim in unison that they are all reacting the same way that Connor did.

'How to Get Away with Murder' season 6 airs on Wednesdays at 10 pm only on ABC.
