So, is Georgia finally going to prison? The short answer: nope. Despite being on trial for the murder of Cynthia’s husband, Tom, Georgia walks away a free woman. But her freedom comes with a twist. The real reason she gets off the hook isn’t legal genius or a lucky technicality, it’s Ginny.
That’s right. Ginny takes things into her own hands and pulls off a strategy so wild, it might just earn her a seat at Olivia Pope’s table. She convinces Austin, her little brother, to lie on the stand and say their dad Gil was the one who killed Tom. Never mind that Gil wasn’t actually there. Details, people.
To complete the plan, Ginny threatens Cynthia into going along with the story by dangling a fake security camera video showing her affair with Joe. No footage exists, but Cynthia doesn’t know that. Eventually, she figures out the bluff and mutters the most accurate line of the season: “Wow, that whole family’s insane.”

Freedom Comes at a Cost
Sure, Georgia’s technically free, but life doesn’t go back to normal. The trial and all the media buzz around it have painted a target on their backs. Ginny sums it up perfectly when she tells her mom, “This is our lives now. We’re this. Forever.” Nothing like a little existential dread to cap off a murder trial.
Meanwhile, Zion, Ginny’s dad and the only adult with a moral compass, realizes Austin lied on the stand. Concerned about Georgia’s influence on the kids, he files for joint custody. You can’t really blame him. Things in the Miller house are starting to resemble a live-action crime podcast.
Georgia isn’t just worried about custody battles. She’s also terrified of what her daughter is becoming. In a rare moment of vulnerability, she tells Ginny, “I know I’m a monster. I don’t want you to turn into monsters, too.” But it may be too late. Ginny is starting to enjoy the taste of power, narrating with a smile that controlling the game is intoxicating. Someone cue the ominous music.

Relationships Falling Apart (or Barely Holding On)
Things are just as messy in the romance department. Georgia and Paul officially break up. Between his tanking mayoral career, her fake pregnancy lie, and a few dozen other secrets, Paul finally reaches his breaking point. “You never loved me. You wanted to be married to the mayor,” he says. Harsh but… not wrong. Georgia doesn’t deny it and instead drops a parting line: “I didn’t make you anything that wasn’t already in there.”
Then there’s Joe. He confronts Georgia about killing Tom, and she admits it like she’s confessing to stealing gum. Shockingly, he’s still into her and kisses her. But Georgia, to her credit, decides she needs a break from jumping between men like it’s a trampoline park. So for now, their romantic situation is unresolved but very much simmering.
Wait, Is Georgia Actually Pregnant?
Earlier in the season, Georgia lies to Paul about being pregnant. In the final moments, though, it looks like the lie may have become the truth. She’s seen chugging a jug of milk, which she only does when she’s expecting. So yeah, baby alert.
The catch? She recently slept with both Paul and Joe. So the big question going into season 4 is: who’s the daddy? According to the showrunners, they’ve already picked the father, but they’re keeping it under wraps. Let the fan theories begin.

The Kids Aren’t Alright
While Ginny’s transformation into a teen strategist of doom is worrying, it’s Austin who’s clearly struggling the most. After being manipulated into betraying his father on the witness stand, he lashes out at Ginny, showing signs of serious emotional trauma. That’s a therapy bill just waiting to happen.
And Marcus? Poor Marcus is spiraling. Still dealing with his breakup with Ginny and battling depression, he falls into heavy drinking and ends up needing rehab. But before he heads off, he finds a poem Ginny wrote about him in his bag. Cue the tears. It’s a small moment of hope in an otherwise dark chapter.
Ghosts from Georgia’s Past Are Coming
Just when you think things can’t get more intense, Georgia gets a call from her imprisoned father, Shane. He warns her that if he can find her, others can too. He even uses her birth name, Mary. Later, we see her estranged mother and stepfather drive past her house, hinting that season 4 is going to dig deep into her origins.
According to the creators, season 4 is all about “cycles and origins,” meaning we’re finally going to learn what made Georgia the chaos queen she is today. Even Brianne Howey, who plays Georgia, says she has chills thinking about it. She hints we’re going to see Georgia in full “Ginny mode” as she discovers just how much she’s been lied to about her own past.
By the end of season 3, no one in the Miller family is the same. Georgia is free but deeply shaken. Ginny has tasted the thrill of power and kind of likes it. Austin is traumatized. Marcus is off to rehab. Paul is out, Joe is maybe in, and there’s a possible baby on the way. And oh yeah, Georgia’s criminally colorful past is coming back like it’s got unfinished business.
If you thought this show couldn’t get any more chaotic, season 4 is ready to prove you wrong.
