How to Get Away With Murder Season 1 Episode 3 Preview: The Plot Thickens

at .

The Shonda Rhimes-created and Viola Davis-driven How to Get Away With Murder has already cemented its place in ABC's hit #TGIT lineup.

It took only two episodes, and things are just getting started in the 10:00 p.m. hour.

Next Thursday night, on How to Get Away With Murder Season 1 Episode 3, we meet Paula Murphy (Ana Ortiz) a suburban soccer mom who runs afoul of the law.

Annalise helps secure her release on misdemeanor charges, but there's a twist ...

Just as she's about to be set free, she's arrested again. This time, for murder.

Annalise and her students are tasked with proving Paula's innocence, or disproving her guilt as the case may be, with a lot riding on the outcome.

Testimony from another suspect may be the make-or-break detail, while the star Middleton Univ. quarterback is also seeking Annalise's representation.

He's been linked to Lila's disappearance, raising the stakes significantly.

We also learn, via flash forwards, some more clues - including the fact that someone else was there besides the students during the night of the murder.

Is this show already addicting or what? Do we even have to ask?

Seriously, if you're not into this show yet, watch How to Get Away With Murder online and catch up on the first two episodes in their entirety this weekend.

You'll be glad you did.
