Is everyone getting mysterious information this week?

If the official pictures from Scandal Season 5 Episode 16 are to be believed then yes.

Things look set to get more tense for Cyrus as he continues to worry that he could be losing his job to a much younger guy, but will the information ease his current predicament?

Jake and Fitz are also looking at mysterious documents. On a show ripe with being one step ahead of the competition, these characters seem to be two steps ahead. 

The episode itself is actually directed by Scott Foley, so expect a couple of behind the scenes images, too!

Elsewhere, some of the characters are posing for a picture and some of them smile. Yes, it's not often you get to see these characters smiling, but I have the proof for you in the following gallery!
