Is Wes Gibbons still alive and kicking? That’s the question once again after the Jan. 18 episode of How To Get Away With Murder. At the end of the episode, Frank kills Dominick and finds something very interesting on the dead man’s phone. He plays Annalise a voicemail that could change everything. The voicemail on Dominick’s phone is from WES, but he uses his real name, Christoph. Wes says, “It’s Christoph. I’m in trouble. We all could be. Call me as soon as you get this.”
So why was Wes, who is the father of Laurel’s baby, calling the man who *eventually* killed him? Maybe Wes is dead, but Christoph is actually alive? Needless to say, this scene caused a fan frenzy on Twitter. Wes’s death back in season 3 was absolutely heartbreaking, so seeing him again definitely pulled at everyone’s heartstrings. Fans immediately took to Twitter to question Wes’s fate once again. Check out the tweets below!

However, don’t get your hopes all the way up just yet. HTGAWM showrunner Pete Nowalk told TVInsider that we will see more of Wes, but it may not be in the way you think. After all, we did see his body burned to a crisp. “I won’t tell you in what context,” he told the outlet. “Why Wes was killed is the main question of this season so we have to answer that. We will be talking about Wes and the characters will be talking about him, and we will see him again.” Talk about cryptic!
How To Get Away With Murder season 4 airs Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on ABC.
