So, You Want to Be a Keating Five Superstar? Season 1 Edition!
Okay, let's be real. We've all watched How to Get Away With Murder and thought, "Could *I* be one of Annalise Keating's chosen few?"
Well, buckle up, buttercup, because we're diving headfirst into becoming a Season 1-worthy member of the Keating Five. Think of it as a highly illegal (and fictional!) college application.
Step 1: Charm Annalise (or at Least Don't Annoy Her)
First things first: impress Annalise Keating. Easier said than done, right?
Think of her as that super-intimidating professor everyone's terrified of. Except, you know, with more legal brilliance and a higher tolerance for questionable morals.
Forget apples; bring her top-notch legal research. Or maybe a really, really good bottle of wine. Okay, maybe both!
Step 2: Ace Your Classes (and Maybe a Crime Scene or Two)
This is law school, after all! You gotta, you know, actually learn something. Showing up to class in pajamas is a big no-no.
And speaking of showing up, be prepared for impromptu crime scene visits. It's all part of the Keating Five experience. Pack comfortable shoes!
Just try not to look *too* enthusiastic during the "evidence gathering" portion. Nobody likes a keener... except maybe Annalise, if you're useful.
Step 3: Master the Art of Lying (Convincingly!)
Alright, let's face it: being a good liar is practically a prerequisite for this gig. Think of it as advanced improv.
Practice in front of a mirror. Perfect your "concerned but innocent" face. Bonus points if you can cry on cue.
Remember, confidence is key. Even if you're sweating bullets, act like you're the most honest person in the room. Channel your inner politician!
Step 4: Develop Unbreakable Loyalty (or a Really Good Poker Face)
Loyalty is everything to Annalise. You're either in, or you're roadkill.
This means covering for each other, even when things get REALLY messy. And trust me, they will.
If you're the type who cracks under pressure, maybe consider transferring to a less… *dramatic* law school. Like one without murder.
Step 5: Embrace the Chaos (and the Red Herrings)
How to Get Away With Murder is basically a roller coaster of twists and turns. One minute you're studying torts, the next you're burying a body.
So, embrace the chaos! Learn to think on your feet, trust your gut, and never underestimate the power of a good red herring.
Pro tip: Keep a notepad handy. You'll need it to keep track of all the lies, alibis, and secret relationships.
Step 6: Hope You Don't End Up in Jail (or Worse)
Okay, let's be real. The Keating Five have a… questionable success rate when it comes to staying out of trouble. Like, really questionable.
So, if you somehow manage to survive Season 1 without ending up behind bars (or six feet under), congratulations! You're a true Keating Five survivor!
But remember, even if you do end up implicated in something... well, that's what Annalise Keating is for, right?
Good luck... you'll need it. Seriously.
Now go forth, future law student (or aspiring criminal mastermind), and may the odds be ever in your favor! And for the record, this is all a joke. Don't actually commit crimes, okay? Stay safe and binge responsibly!
