ABC’s ‘Scandal’ season 5, episode 19 preview: Buckle up for Kerry Washington, cast in ‘Buckle Up’

In case you could not tell, next week’s new episode of “Scandal” is entitled “Buckle Up.” Is this a guarantee that there will be some enormous drama ahead? We’re not necessarily that we would say that per se, but this is at least ABC telling us that it is very likely that we’ll get to see something akin to this. After all, there are only a few episodes left this season, and in that time we imagine that the show will at least wrap up the first stage of the election in the primaries.

Want to get some more news now regarding what to expect? Then just be sure to check out the official synopsis below:

“As Mellie, Susan and Hollis prepare to meet with Florida’s governor and vie for her influential endorsement, a spin war between Abby and Olivia threatens to keep their candidates grounded. Meanwhile, Cyrus is faced with a decision that could dramatically alter his future.”

By the time we make it to the end of this episode, maybe we will see the end of some of the drama with Florida’s governor … but we have a hard time imagining that there is going to be a whole lot of resolution on virtually any other subject. This is just not something that the show really does the vast majority of the time before at least we get to the finale. Even then, we wouldn’t be shocked if the series chose to hand out one of the largest cliffhangers out there for season 6.
