ABC’s ‘Scandal’ season 5, episode 17 preview: Olivia Pope’s out for revenge…

Tonight, “Scandal” brought us closer and closer to the Presidential election, and it also made it very clear that across the board, every single person will be dealing with drama in one way or another.

With all of this said, the events of the next new installment could end up raising the stakes and then some when it comes to the conflict. After all, we could see a few specific events take place that we never saw coming. The promo below specifically promised one of the biggest shockers ever, and it revolves around Olivia Pope first and foremost.

Want to get some other news as to what to expect? Then check out the synopsis below:

“The election is in full swing, which means everyone is doing their best to take down their opponents, but when a potential leak threatens several candidates, they have to work together to keep their secrets safe. Boundaries are pushed and lines are crossed as we find out just how far some people are willing to go to protect themselves.”

The one unfortunate thing is that there is really no specifics mentioned in what we just shared, and the same goes for the promo below. All we can say for certain is that something truly crazy happens that could change how many characters seen the world. It’s unfortunate that you’re going to have to wait until April 14 to actually see where this story goes from here, but there are only 22 installments in a season.
