Jake Ballard To ‘Destroy Everything’ This Season
Well according to a sneak peek dropped by the network for the episode called Yes, Olvia and Fitz face the fallout of romantic photos of them being aired on national television.
Olivia is frantically walking through a tunnel and tells the President, “I had to leave while I still could. Don’t call me again. I’ll call you.”
Of course Fitz isn’t letting it slide that easily and tries to figure out where she is heading. While he’s stuck asking, “Where are you?” the Vice President turned television anchor, Sally Langston, blasts him once and said, “What a ludicrous question. We know exactly where she is.”
She then turns her wrath to Olivia and says, “She may run from the watchful eyes of justice. She may run from the good people of this nation. But I can assure you dear lovers of liberty, she will not be able to hide.”
A synopsis for the episode also reads, “In the ‘Scandal’ Season 5 episode ‘Yes’, which originally airs October 1, 2015, The Pope and Associates team dives into a new case that takes Olivia out of D.C. and away from the President. Meanwhile, back at the White House, Fitz is determined to find out who’s responsible for causing the latest turn of events, and Abby receives unexpected guidance from a master of damage control as she struggles to catch a break.”
Scandal airs Thursdays at 10/9c on ABC.
