Spoilers ahead for How to Get Away with Murder Season 6, Episode 13. In a twist so bonkers, almost no one could have predicted it, How to Get Away with Murder revealed in its April 30 episode that Frank is Hannah and Sam's son. Yes, you read that correctly: Sam and Hannah had an incestuous relationship and a child together.
Initially, Vivian's suspicion about Sam and Hannah seemed wildly out of bounds. She pointed out that Sam "always used sex to get what he wanted" and insisted that Hannah was the one who taught him that, because they'd both been neglected by their parents and "were desperate for love so they found it in each other."
She claimed to have done her research that incest sometimes comes out of neglect, and suggested that Sam and Hannah both became psychologists to try to understand that. She also pointed out that Hannah was always inserting herself into her marriage, and that Annalise must have suspected there was "something extra" between the siblings, too. She was right: in a much-analyzed Season 1 line, Annalise once said that Hannah had spent her whole life "obsessing" over Sam. "How does the saying go?" Annalise asked her sister-in-law. "Incest is best, put your brother to the test?"
And there have been other subtle clues, too. Longtime viewers may remember that Sam was very interested in helping Frank get out of jail for the attempted murder of his father (or rather, "father"), despite the fact that Frank had no idea who Sam was. The only explanation Sam gave at the time was that Frank's "Aunt Bev" had known Hannah. Afterward, Sam was really hard on Frank, going so far as to break up him and Bonnie when they were two young 20-somethings in love, or at least hooking up in the basem*nt of the Keating family home. That has fatherly meddling written all over it.
Eventually, Annalise was able to prove via DNA testing that Vivian's suspicions were correct. Bonnie did raise the possibility that the incest wasn't consensual, and that Sam was the victim's of Hannah's sexual abuse. But considering Sam is dead now, we may never know the truth.
What we do know is how this new information might impact Annalise's case. Since Hannah is the one who "started this whole conspiracy" against Annalise, proving that she was actually a jealous "lover" could sow enough doubt with the jury to render a not guilty verdict...if the case even makes it that far.
Thanks to some evidence that Nate dug up, the FBI is now aware that Agent Pollock (who killed Asher) has been working with the Castillos and the governor, which could nullify the validity of the investigation entirely. The only problem? In order to save Oliver from prison time, Connor signed a new immunity deal with the FBI that includes him having to perjure himself to put Annalise away. Clearly, Annalise isn't the only one determined to expose the truth.
He explained his willingness to help was because Hannah knew Frank's aunt in high school and called in a favor. Frank has been tied to Hannah since the very beginning! Annalise

When the season fall finale aired in early November, Annalise Keating (Viola Davis) finally discovered that Gabriel Maddox (Rome Flynn) is the biological son of her dead husband Sam Keating(Tom Verica).
Season 3 of HTGAWM revealed that Frank had been responsible for Annalise losing her baby years ago when she was pregnant while handling the Mahoney case. Frank had been given a suitcase full of money for helping the hitwoman in the Mahoneys' pay to T-bone Annalise's car.
Bonnie tells him the secret that his birth parents are none other than Sam and Hannah Keating, and as a result he's the product of incest. After the truth has been revealed, Frank threats Hannah's lawyer to obtain more information to help Annalise win her case.
While Frank and Laurel's relationship ultimately didn't work out, it was a passionate relationship that motivated Frank to become a better person. Frank worked on curbing his darker impulses and reconciling with past sins so he could be the best version of himself for Laurel.
Hannah missed 83 days of school, ostensibly for mono, but Annalise suspects she was pregnant. And once she realizes that Hannah gave birth in March, she puts the pieces together. All that's left to do is run a DNA test. Annalise then calls Bonnie over to share the proof that Hannah and Sam slept together: a child.
Lila Stangard and her Unborn Son: Ordered Frank Delfino to strangle Lila on top of a roof, which Frank carried out, killing her unborn son as well. Frank did this as he owed Sam for the part he played in killing his son.
But despite Hannah's agreement to appear in court, she died via gunshot wound to the head before she could ever take the stand. Though Marcia Gay Harden previously appeared as Hannah in four Season 1 episodes, she didn't return for the final season due to a scheduling conflict.
Connor subsequently expresses remorse for his life of lying and deceit and after Laurel reveals their perjury on the stand, Connor decides to go to prison and stop lying.
He is a student at Middleton University whom Frank played a secret interest to. It was later revealed that Gabriel is in fact the son of Sam Keating from his first wife, Vivian Maddox.
Bonnie passed out during the birth and when she awoke, her father, their father, told Bonnie that her baby had died. In reality, the baby survived and Bob and Julie took the baby to St. Lincoln Hospital. Sometime later, Julie returned to the hospital where she took the baby back.
Frank tracked Julie down to determine what happened to Bonnie's son and, after a lot of false leads, she finally broke down and admitted that she kept her promise to protect the baby from their dad — by burying him in the woods.
Laurel visits Frank and presents the Justice trophy to him in order to ward suspicion of its theft from Asher. The following morning, Annalise calls a meeting with the Keating Five and solemnly breaks news of Sam's affair with Lila, Annalise's fight with Sam, and his disappearance soon after.
The remains of Sam are found and Annalise incriminates her lover Nate Lahey as a way to avoid her student's arrest. However, she tries to help him go free by offering him a number of a fellow lawyer.
At one point, Annalise even called Wes her son when talking about his death, a move that makes a lot more sense now. When she looks after Christopher, it's easy to think that Annalise is reminded of the baby's dad.
