Oh, and wasn't it just ducky of Mellie to throw Cyrus under the freakin' bus with the Prez like that? She is so blatantly evil, she's beyond belief. So now Fitz thinks everything was Cyrus's fault, when it obviously wasn't. I hope that Cyrus doesn't lose his job, because he has often stated that his job is his life.
Meanwhile, what is the deal with Mellie hating children and not knowing how to even interact with them? She has, supposedly, given birth to more than one child, and we're supposed to believe she hasn't got a motherly bone in her whole body? And WHY is Abby suddenly so pathetic, that she goes to her former boyfriends house and whimpers at him? How craven is that?

continued...you need to see a psychiatrist! Also, what was up with Quinn becoming Lizzie Borden in this episode? The look in her eyes and on her face when she stabbed the dead girl was revolting! EW! Even David, who has been a white hat, and wanted to get back to that, suddenly blows off Olivia when she's the one whom he called first when he found a bloody dead girl in his bed! But now he's decided he doesn't need her anymore, and insults her after all she has done for him? What a JERK. And now we have a creepy Naval Intelligence Officer who has totally rigged Olivia's apartment for surveilance who is also trying to get into her pants...ewwww! Creepy barely begins to describe it!

I couldn't seem to find any character to like in this episode, as everyone was in totally creepy/horrific/nasty/evil mode! First of all, I think Fitz was a complete asshat for dragging Olivia into an electrical room and more or less forcing himself on her (not that she protested) and then having the NERVE to say "it's over, even though I can't control my erections around you, I want nothing to do with you." I'm sorry, that is total BS! He's a grown man, not a horny teenage boy! He certainly CAN control his genitals, he just doesn't want to, the rat bastard. And the look of sheer revulsion he had on his face everytime his wife Mellie tried to have sex with him, or even give him a bj, was just awful. I can't imagine any man, let alone one who claims he can't control his erections, willfully turning down oral sex, no matter who it is from. I realize Mellie is a lying piece of crap, and evil in her own right, but seriously, if you nearly puke everytime you're naked with her, you need to se

I was wondering why Olivia doesn't have her place swept regularly too. She should know better! She's a former white house helper! People know she has inside info that's loaded. Ugh. But SF's new character was adorable and then the screens came into view... I almost fell over. And why do I also feel like I should have seen that coming? But I do my best to NOT try and predict this show because it is one of the most entertaining right now because you never know what could happen! I adore Fitzlivia but I was NOT thrilled with the last two conversations they had. First the mistress comment and then the one about not controlling wanting to sleep with her? I'm not so pro Fitz as I was at the start.

I don't agree that Huck and Quinn should be together. He's too creepy for her. I had got the impression in the pilot that Harrison and Quinn had chemistry but they never followed on it. I would like them together. Especially that Harrison nedds a storyline we almost know nothing about that guy.

The reviewer is right Mellie's betrayal didn't hurt as much as Cyrus and Olivia's. He expected something like that from Mellie, which makes it easier for him to forgive. He always knew she was power-hungry so it's no surprise. Tammymoo, I like your theory, it makes sense she wants Fitz to only rely on her for advice and take Cyrus's place (or job, even).
BTW am I the only one who think Olivia will eventually hire David Rosen. Now that he's part of the people she saved...

There were so many OMG moments for me last night. That ending with him watching Olivia was so so creepy. I thought when they first met they had good chemistry and this should be interesting to see Olivia with someone new but they he had to be spying on her. The preview for next week looks like it gets even more creepy.
I felt so bad for David. Could this man life get any more sad. He can't catch a break. Even though him waking up to the dead girl next to him with blood everywhere was shocking but the scene with Olivia and Fitz in the server room had me. I with the reviewer that was angry sex. I felt so bad for Olivia again because she so wants to make the election rigging thing right and he won't even hear her out.
Also how cute is Cyrus baby.
I hope him trusting Mellie and not Cyrus will backfire on him. The whole time she was turning that on Cyrus I was saying please tell me you're not buying that BS.
Love the scene with Huck and Quinn when he asked her to stab the gi

I think Huck and Quinn would be great together. David will join Olivia's team. Captain James knew he was a creeper from the beginning. Olivia with the kind of business you are in you don't check your house for bugs and cameras? Love how my girl Mellie threw Cryus under the bus and then smiled about it. Fritzs can't be stupid enough to believe her. I can't believe he did not ask Olivia who came up with the plan. Sure they were wrong but she would have told him the truth. Fritzs is losing his mind boring shower sex with Mellie with a drink in his hand and server room angry sex with Olivia and then dissed her after. I love Harrison wish they would show more of him. I just started watching this show after Fritzs got shot but I am really liking this show. Hope they keep the writing up. Hope other networks follow ABC's lead and have shows on for more than 22 eposides. Yes that is a dig at NBC wasting money on shows that are only on for tow eposides before you cancel it and your f

Those years working with Mr. Allstate will make him a good undercover agent... I feel he's been tracking Olivia for months.....

It was painful watching Fritz and Olivia "interaction". However, I think it was necessary. I think it showed that Olivia is human and capable of making bad decisions in love. It also shows that Fritz is sometimes his own worst enemy. I understand why Whiskey Tango Foxtrot episode was "what it what". Also, the reason Mental Mellie threw Cyrus under the bus because she saw this as an opportunity to lure Fritz away from his right-hand-man Cyrus and position herself as his champion and confidant. I have to take a bow to that crazy azz chick, she should have been President, she's ruthless!

OMG!! Here I was getting all so happy and tingly in seeing Olivia with a possible new (handsome) love interest and WHAM! he has her under surveillance!! This does not look good!!! Could he be the mole??!! And Fitz, what's the hell is his problem??!! Ok, I get it! He is feeling betrayed and all that but turning to Mellie and listening to her and eating all the crap she is feeding him. Then treating the only two persons who have always had his back with disdain and contempt. You better wake up soon Fitz and toss the scotch far away from you while you're at it!

Oh my goodness what an episode! First off the Captain knows something about Olivia and Associates and that is why he is watching her, I was not sure but it seemed like he had cameras in her office as well (i could be wrong). Plus the scene with Fitz drinking in the oval office then them showing the camera, he is def being watched too. What the Heck is wrong with Mellie, hate her more this week than ever before....but its obvious she is tired of sharing Fitz and wants him to trust and turn to her alone, hence why she betrayed Cyrus. But it almost seems as if she is trying to sabotage Fitz himself by giving him that advice in the car about him being President and always right. My my cant wait for Huck to find those cameras.

WTF Scott Foley indeed! I was right there with you - totally wanting him to be a FAB love interest for Olivia, but that end reveal was pegging the "creepy" scale - way in the red! I am wondering how long he has had her under surveillance? Does he know about her history with Fitz? Is he the mole? So many questions! At some point you know he's gonna show up on Huck's radar - and then all hell is gonna break loose! Huck is nothing if not uber-protective of Olivia!
I kind of felt bad for Cyrus. And even a little bit for Mellie, although I was puzzled as to why she didn't place the blame for this whole thing on Hollis Doyle instead of Cyrus. Shower sex - that was sad. If Mellie knew what was good for the president and the country she would somehow get Olivia back in his life. As long as he's apart from Olivia it seems he's just a sad, alcoholic shell of a man!

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! WHY WHY WHY?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Is this guy truly as stupid as he is turning out to be?! Seriously? I fell in love with this show until the last 2 episodes. Fitz finds out the truth about the election them turns on everyone EXCEPT Mellie? HUH?!?!?!?! He's so stupid and naive that all of a sudden he is trusting all the shit Mellie is shoveling and turning his back on the 2 people that have truly tried to protect him all along... oh, and to make it all the better, he basically turns Olivia into a whore! Every other aspect of the show makes sense, but if this man is that naive and stupid, he never should have been president to begin with. Yea, I get he is hurt over the betrayal, but if he TRULY loved Olivia as "the love of his life," he would have heard her out over Mellie.
DO NOT like or trust the Scott Foley character one bit! I'm waiting for Olivia to suddenly disappear, her team freaking out, and the pan of the camera to Olivia tied up in some se
