More Than Meets the Eye?: Annalise Keating is everything you hope your Criminal Law professor will be: brilliant, passionate creative and charismatic.

When Laurel goes to Frank, one of Annalise's associates, about their client's questionable innocence, he thinks he has her all figured out. Is he right?

Why Did Annalise Pick Wes?: No one is more surprised than Wes when he is chosen as Professor Keating's final student to join her at the firm. He can't help but wonder if it's because of the secret he uncovered about Nate. Annalise sets the record straight in the scene below.
