Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!!

This was probably my second favorite episode of the season, it was just brilliant from beginning to end! I am not going to go into detail in this review because too much happened in this episode that I would never be able to stop writing. I will just focus on the stand-out moments (which are already too many): Let me begin with the flawless memorial scene. Karla Souza just nailed that performance, she better be nominated for outstanding supporting actress in a drama series at the Emmys! While you might not have realized at the beginning, this scene dealt with a very important topic: Are you grieving because you have to or are you grieving because it actually meant something to you. Laurel made a point by saying that many people did not even know Wes in that room and that it is an insult to show up at his memorial, and I totally agree with her. Seeing her break down was absolutely heart-breaking to watch, but Karla outdid herself there. Just wow! By the way, all Laurel scenes in this episode were outstanding. Other amazing scenes were the ones with Annalise and her parents. How amazing was it to see someone's parents not even consider their daughter to be guilty? I was expecting them to actually be furious and accuse her of actually killing Wes, but no, they did the exact opposite. Viola Davis and Cicely Tyson are the best combo on this show. Both are immaculate actors, both deserve several Emmys. Annalise also returned to her true from by getting herself out of prison in just a few hours, no one can stop this brilliant woman.
And finally, the intriguing flash-backs! So first Wes calls an emergency contact and actually utilizes his real name "Christophe". That was very interesting to see, but I have no idea who he called. Then in the final scene we find out that supposedly Nate authorized a transfer of Wes' body, which we all know is a lie. But I think it is a very intriguing development, and I have no idea in which direction it is headed. After seeing Laurel cry over a shirt of Wes', which once again was heart-breaking to see, we turn to another flash-back showing Wes entering Annalise's house after Nate is already in it. Interesting.
At this point, I have no idea who killed Wes and who blew up the house, but the way they are setting it up is brilliant. Cannot wait to see everything unravel. This show is consistently brilliant.
