00:00Don't like your perfect crime. How you laugh when you lie.
00:08Ooh, look what they made Annalise do. After our new look at the upcoming season of TGIT,
00:13set to the tune of Taylor Swift's latest single, Shondaland fans are anxiously awaiting the
00:18return of ABC's Thursday night lineup, including How To Get Away With Murder.
00:22When the show's fourth season premieres in late September, the cast of 20-somethings
00:26responsible for covering up multiple murders will be halfway done with their second year
00:31of law school. Creator Peter Nowak told The Hollywood Reporter that unlike in previous years,
00:36there's no big, life-changing event that starts off the season.
00:39Everyone's more in a normal place, probably how most of us live our lives without murders
00:44happening all the time. It's really nice just to be eased into where they are.
00:47But as any TGIT fan knows, How To Get Away With Murder always kicks off with a big question
00:53to drive the season. Like, who's under the sheet? Who killed Sam? And who shot Annalise?
00:57The creator revealed,
00:59This year the question is not a who, it's a where. It's very different than the other seasons,
01:04which is why I love it. But it's still a really great mystery.
01:07Nowak says the reveal of that question will be a major moment in the season premiere.
01:11It's still a crazy-balls, roller-coaster, what the f*** happened mystery.
01:15We'll find out that question. In fact, one of the characters will even say it by the end of the first episode.
01:21And when the Shondaland series picks up, the answers to many questions left hanging in the season 3
01:26finale will be answered. So if you're not caught up, warning, spoilers ahead.
01:30According to Nowak,
01:31Asher and Mikayla are going to be living together, Laurel will have made a decision about whether
01:36or not to have the baby, and Annalise will really have had time to breathe and say,
01:40Okay, what do I want my life to look like now that I am disgraced and starting at rock bottom?
01:45How can I build my life back from that?
01:47The creator says the premiere will also reveal whether or not Viola Davis'
01:50character, Annalise, will want to keep her students in her life now that she's no longer teaching.
01:55Does she still think that they all have to band together to protect each other?
01:59Or does she feel like it's time they all go their separate ways?
02:02There will be a major decision about that and a major shift in the show in the premiere.
02:06For much more from Nowak on season 4 of How to Get Away with Murder,
02:09including how Laurel's storyline will be influenced by the season 3 finale,
