A sneak peek from the upcoming midseason premiere for the second chapter of How to Get Away With Murder shows Annalise Keating (Viola Davis) still reeling from the gun shot injury as she comes home.

Frank And Laurel To Become An Official Couple Going Forward?

The clip was exclusively released via ABC. Liza (Bonnie Winterbottom) is seen helping Annalise settle in at home after coming from the hospital. Annalise looks very weak yet she feigns resilience to get on with life, asking Liza what time the trial is the next day and how all the kids are, finally the clip ends with her asking about Wes (Alfred Enoch), who shot her.

In a recent interview with TVLine, How to Get Away With Murder's showrunner Pete Nowalk dished about Annalise Keating's (Viola Davis) character arc going forward.

Will Nate Rat Annalise Out?

Nowalk spoke about how although Annalise will be back on her feet it's not like her physical wounds from the shooting would have completely healed, and Davis was committed to portraying that weakness through the season.

"Annalise has been through surgery, and what I love about Viola is she encourages me to stick to the real physical harm of that. And honestly, even though she is in bed and in pain for a little bit, she's fascinating to watch - no matter what shape she's in. She's one actor I could watch laying in bed for six episodes," Nowalk said. "The first episode back, I find her performance extremely compelling and different. It can't be the same thing every time. It can't just always be 42 minutes of Annalise kicking ass and saying one-liners. And there are different ways we explore her bad-assness - even when she's sick."

The midseason premiere episode titled 'What Happened to You, Annalise?' will air on Feb. 11.
