‘The Constitution is going up in flames,’ said David Rosen.
Truer words have never been said.
Heres our review of last nights Scandal.
One being…what happened between Mellie and Marcus?
At first I wasnt sure of the significance of these flashbacks.
Thanks a lot, Shonda Rhimes.
Dont deprive us of another cute couple!
But, oh how she must.
For a moment, I really thought Mellie was going to do the opposite of what Olivia did.
That she would drop everything and be with Marcus.
But, as Olivia said in this episode, she is tethered to power.
And so is Mellie.
As I mentioned last week, Olivias hunger for power is really getting on my nerves.
And if I dont see a redeeming character soon, I dont know what I am going to do.
Marcus is the closest thing weve got, but who else?
Even Abby took things too far this episode when she totally dismissed the Constitution to get what she wanted.
Constitution, Shmonstitution
Oh yeah, that little document that is supposed to be what America stands for?
Meh, so who needs it apparently.
Cue David Rosen, busting in on Mellie and Olivia wine time and taking a glass for himself.
To be fair though, Abby is just doing what she learned from Liv.
And that is what drives Olivia this season.
That is what she lives for.
Or is this just Olivia avoiding the reality of this thing called life?
Next week
It looks like we will continue into more investigation on whether or not Cyrus killed Vargas.
Apparently, its a very hard thing to do.
Especially for someone so bullheaded.
Maybe his date with the FBI director may soften him up a bit…?
However, I dont think it will have the same effect on Liv.
With the seemingly impossible task to prove Cyrus involvement, that has never stopped the gladiators before.
It doesnt look like they are coming up for breath any time soon.
