Even the best "fixer" in Washington, Olivia Pope, can't fix her own scandal. In the next episode of "Scandal", Fitz worries about his mistress as people are lashing out against her after they went public with their affair.
Not pleased with how his staff is handling the situation, the president is firing someone. Olivia is seen having a nervous breakdown while her team, including Jake, Quinn and Huck, are ready to get in action.
Mellie, convinced by Cyrus, will make use of the moment for her own advantage. Meanwhile, Papa Pope is back and he tells someone who visits him in jail, "Happy hunting!"
"Dog-Whistle Politics" airs Thursday, October 15 at 9 P.M. on ABC. According to the synopsis, "Eager to get answers, Jake unexpectedly crosses paths with someone he thought he'd never see again. Meanwhile, Huck and Quinn recruit a familiar face to help smooth over the media storm surrounding Olivia, and Fitz quickly finds out the true cost of mercy when he discovers not everyone fully supports his actions."
