    Scandal

    I just love t his show, the actors are all so good! I have seen a review of today's episode, I just can't wait to see it! I am a huge fan of Fiz/Olivia, I just hope they keep them together....If you have not seen it, just watch, it's the best series ever!! I am still not sure what Jake is up to, but I think he is a creep, too Much of a coincidence, knocking Olivia's phone out of her hand, he is Working for somebody, could be Eddison, maybe Mellie, she wants A hot guy to take her away from Fitz! But really why has Fitz chosen to Stay with Mellie, she is so bad, she is launch a bitch ! why doesn't He get it? Maybe he is playing her!! Very confusing, but that is what Makes it so good!

      While talking with Jake, Fitz mentions the swim team and starts to take a drink with his left hand. After a very brief reaction shot on Jake, the camera cuts back to Fitz drinking with his right hand.
    • Quotes

      [first lines]

      Olivia Pope: [arriving at the restaurant] I'm so sorry. This is not... I'm not a late person, and I don't want you to think our meeting isn't a priority.

      Jake Ballard: It's a date.

      Olivia Pope: What?

      Jake Ballard: You said meeting. I'm not a client. I don't have a problem. I don't need fixing. I asked you out. You said yes. We dressed up. At the end of the evening if all goes well there will be kissing. This is not a meeting, this is a date. And I don't want to insult you. You chose this restaurant. I'm sure the food is very good, but this is not a date restaurant. You can't have a date here. This is where dates go to die.

      [picks up the wine glasses and stands up]

      Jake Ballard: You look extraordinary, by the way. So let's go.
