How To Get Away With Murder S6E1: Who Killed Annalise?

Who killed Annalise?
"You're not a failure, you are not trash, you are not cold, you are not a bitch, you are not ugly, you are not disgusting…you deserve to be loved, you deserve to be free… I want out! I want out! Forgive yourself, Annalise! I forgive you, I forgive you!" Annalise knew punching the pillow was not going to make her feel better, not even for a sec, yet with so much rage brewing she kept punching the pillow, affirming those words. She is broken, the more she tries to feel better, the more she becomes worse. Torture and rage-filled her whole being.
This is a woman severely straining her emotions to make her problems go away, but No! They follow her everywhere she goes.
The first scene of How To Get Away With Murder season 6 episode one, comes with a blissful aura, I felt like I was in an Elysium with the characters until I heard "Stoooooop!"…Annalise screamed…oops! I mean Karen. What's with the new name Mrs. Keating?
Unbeknownst to the viewers, Annalise had a relapse following Laurels disappearance and she couldn't risk the District Attorneys finding out, hence a change of name at the rehab.
I knew Annalise couldn't have stayed so long in rehab just as seen in previous seasons where she loathed any situation that made her vulnerable (like the sessions with Isaac Roa and the series of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meetings) and also could never be away for too long from her 'non-blooded dysfunctional family'.
Although fully aware that affirming positive words while in Rehab did not make her feel better, Annalise would kill for Asher, Connor, Oliver, and Michaela to say them too. Why would Annalise do that? I bet she felt providing them restoration would provide her a fraction of peace at least. But the reverse was the case when Asher beckoned her to tell Mikela the truth about her birth parents.
So unfortunate, Michaela who was reluctant to do so initially had started to feel better after the whole mantra of whipping the pillow with a tool looking like a golf club. Now she's shocked and immediately confronts Annalise and threatens to kill her if it's actually true.
The moment Micheala found out
Suddenly there was blood splatter on my screen and the golf club like tool ascending with blood dripping from it. And the biggest shocker, a scene of Annalise's burial ceremony…"Could Peter Nowalk be joking with me?" A rhetoric question I had to ask myself.
Wait! Who killed Annalise? Michaela? I know she had threatened but could she have done that. She might have to owe to the fact that she's been on a futile search for her birth parents and the one person who owed her the truth hid it from her.
Fans have argued that Annalise cannot be dead so early in the season especially knowing that she's the center of all the havoc and mysteries in the series. Also compared to the previous seasons where Peter Nowalk pitches the story from a futuristic angle and then later fuses the present with the future. Whatever be the case, Annalise died and this is not some imaginative death scene like she practiced in Rehab. Ooo, wait a sec! what if it was a plot? these guys can do anything to escape the FBI innit?
