ABC’s ‘Scandal’ season 4 spoilers: Kerry Washington’s Olivia and a search
Just in case you thought that the drama on “Scandal” season 4 regarding Jake’s presumed innocence was going to be ending anytime in the near future, we have some pretty clear evidence at this very moment of the opposite.
The November 6 episode of the series carries what we feel is a pretty darn funny title in “Baby Made a Mess,” which has to be a candidate at the moment for the best title of the entire season so far. It also may be one of the most important, given that you have Tom still in play, and Leo Bergen back to cause more problems with everyone. Also, you still have to worry about Elizabeth, and Huck and Mellie both will be making some pretty shocking decisions.
For a few more details, the synopsis below should have everything you desire and then some:
“Olivia, still unable to believe that Jake is guilty, sets her eyes on Tom for additional information, and when Leo Bergen’s newest client causes a gut wrenching reaction, her associates spring into action. Meanwhile, Huck continues to play with fire, Mellie makes a power move and Elizabeth’s shocking alliance is revealed.”
We have a hard time thinking that this Jake story will be resolved at any point before the end of the fall, mostly because it seems like the sort of thing that could benefit from a tremendous amount of buildup. Just look at everything that you could gain from this when it comes to answers for Fitz, and also how this could force the hand of Kerry Washington’s character if the President and Jake are at odds with one another.
It’s a little early to call this the most-important episode of the season, but this is most definitely an hour that you should remember for a while.
