1

00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:04,066

What do you imagine that
there is left to say?

2
00:00:04,134 --> 00:00:04,967
Everything.
Or nothing.

3
00:00:05,035 --> 00:00:06,269
<i>Previously on "Scandal"...</i>

4
00:00:06,336 --> 00:00:07,736
Something happened
between you and Olivia,

5
00:00:07,804 --> 00:00:09,972
and something happened between
you and Amanda Tanner.

6
00:00:10,040 --> 00:00:11,606
I need to know
how much trouble we're in.

7
00:00:11,673 --> 00:00:13,808
Her name's Amanda, right?
She tried to kill herself?

8
00:00:13,876 --> 00:00:15,643
Gideon, which news outlet
do you work for?

9
00:00:15,711 --> 00:00:18,146
It's two sentences
about a disturbed girl.

10
00:00:18,214 --> 00:00:20,581
Watergate was two sentences
about a burglary.

11
00:00:20,649 --> 00:00:23,084
You know I was telling
the truth about the president.

12
00:00:23,152 --> 00:00:25,586
I can help you if you let me.

13
00:00:25,654 --> 00:00:26,521
Hello.

14
00:00:26,588 --> 00:00:27,587
Quinn, who's this?

15
00:00:27,655 --> 00:00:28,789
The reporter from the hospital.

16
00:00:28,856 --> 00:00:30,157
You don't have a story,
so go home.

17
00:00:30,225 --> 00:00:31,491
She tried to kill herself

18
00:00:31,559 --> 00:00:33,527
the day after she quit working
for the president,

19
00:00:33,594 --> 00:00:35,396
and you're Olivia pope,
so, no, I didn't have a story.

20
00:00:35,463 --> 00:00:37,264
But now? Now I do.

21
00:00:43,237 --> 00:00:45,538
I don't know how you take it...

22
00:00:45,605 --> 00:00:47,273
cream or sugar...
so I brought both.

23
00:00:47,341 --> 00:00:49,342
I don't take it.
Do they always do this?

24
00:00:49,410 --> 00:00:51,411
Yeah.

25
00:00:51,478 --> 00:00:52,511
They do that.

26
00:00:52,579 --> 00:00:53,980
Good. God.
27
00:00:54,048 --> 00:00:55,448
I was starting to think
it was me or something.

28
00:00:55,515 --> 00:00:58,818
It is you. They're talking
about you, Amanda.

29
00:00:58,885 --> 00:01:01,420
Everyone's gonna be
talking about you.

30
00:01:01,487 --> 00:01:02,787
- No. No way.
- Are you kidding?

31
00:01:02,855 --> 00:01:04,456
What if she's lying?

32
00:01:04,523 --> 00:01:05,523
What if she's not?
I vote yes. We're not voting.

33
00:01:05,591 --> 00:01:07,059
It's Monica all over again,

34
00:01:07,126 --> 00:01:08,526
except without the blue dress,
without any kind of proof.

35
00:01:08,594 --> 00:01:09,794
Who needs proof? The girl said
she slept with the president.

36
00:01:09,862 --> 00:01:11,163
Liv worked at the white house.

37
00:01:11,230 --> 00:01:12,497
That alone makes it
a giant conflict of interest.

38
00:01:12,565 --> 00:01:13,365
Oh, please call me
when you grow a pair.

39
00:01:13,433 --> 00:01:14,766
We're not voting.

40
00:01:14,834 --> 00:01:16,000
She seems scared.

41
00:01:16,068 --> 00:01:17,969
I'd vote yes if we were voting.

42
00:01:18,036 --> 00:01:19,136
It's Sandra Harding.

43
00:01:19,204 --> 00:01:20,071
Her son didn't make it
to court.

44
00:01:20,138 --> 00:01:22,073
Day one... can you believe it?

45
00:01:22,140 --> 00:01:24,375
Who are we voting on?

46
00:01:24,443 --> 00:01:26,010
We're not voting.
She's ours. We're keeping her.

47
00:01:26,078 --> 00:01:26,944
It's done.

48
00:01:27,012 --> 00:01:28,645
Sandra, we'll find him.

49
00:01:28,713 --> 00:01:29,813
I'll go to court
and help the defense stall.

50
00:01:29,881 --> 00:01:30,848
You're gonna
have to get creative.

51
00:01:30,915 --> 00:01:32,282
Harrison, you're with me.

52
00:01:32,350 --> 00:01:33,783
Huck, find gideon Wallace
at the "D.C. sun"
53
00:01:33,851 --> 00:01:35,452
I want to talk to him today.

54
00:01:35,519 --> 00:01:37,153
Abby, take Amanda home,
pack up her things,

55
00:01:37,221 --> 00:01:38,654
make sure no one...

56
00:01:38,722 --> 00:01:40,156
no one is following her and set
her up at your apartment.

57
00:01:40,224 --> 00:01:41,591
Got it.

58
00:01:46,630 --> 00:01:48,630
I'm losing my patience,
Mr. Cole.

59
00:01:48,698 --> 00:01:51,033
Uh, I'm told he'll be here
very soon, your honor.

60
00:01:51,101 --> 00:01:54,003
A presidential motorcade is
blocking Massachusetts Avenue.

61
00:01:54,070 --> 00:01:56,338
Ah. Yet, here we are.

62
00:01:56,406 --> 00:01:58,273
Perhaps the defendant should
take one of his helicopters,

63
00:01:58,341 --> 00:02:00,075
your honor.

64
00:02:03,178 --> 00:02:05,279
We're running out of time, Liv.

65
00:02:05,347 --> 00:02:08,082
Well, keep stalling.
66
00:02:11,286 --> 00:02:13,754
Room service.
We've got your breakfast.

67
00:02:13,822 --> 00:02:16,524
I don't think we ordered any.

68
00:02:16,591 --> 00:02:17,958
I love my job.

69
00:02:18,027 --> 00:02:19,993
You might want to put on
some clothes for this.

70
00:02:20,061 --> 00:02:21,628
Excuse me.

71
00:02:23,531 --> 00:02:25,499
Up and at 'em, Trav!

72
00:02:27,035 --> 00:02:28,701
Oh-ho-ho! Livvie!

73
00:02:28,769 --> 00:02:30,803
How the hell are ya?

74
00:02:30,871 --> 00:02:32,439
I'm fine.
You're late.

75
00:02:32,507 --> 00:02:33,606
Hey, do you know who this is?!

76
00:02:33,674 --> 00:02:35,241
This is <i>the</i> Olivia pope.

77
00:02:35,308 --> 00:02:36,909
She's amazing.

78
00:02:36,976 --> 00:02:38,411
She works for the...

79
00:02:38,478 --> 00:02:41,880
Who do you work for now,
the white house, CIA, FBI?
80
00:02:41,948 --> 00:02:43,115
Today? Your mother.

81
00:02:43,183 --> 00:02:44,316
Oh, crap.

82
00:02:44,384 --> 00:02:45,851
She's not too thrilled

83
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,219
about the fact
that you were late for court

84
00:02:47,287 --> 00:02:49,121
on your first day of trial.

85
00:02:49,189 --> 00:02:50,789
Is this
what you're looking for?

86
00:02:50,857 --> 00:02:52,090
Just give me, like,
two minutes.

87
00:02:52,158 --> 00:02:53,858
All right? Where are my pants?

88
00:02:53,926 --> 00:02:55,293
Whoa. Why don't we... why don't
we rinse the booze off first?

89
00:02:55,361 --> 00:02:56,827
Judge will appreciate that.
Hmm?

90
00:02:56,895 --> 00:02:59,597
I know I've been hitting it
pretty hard lately, going out.

91
00:02:59,665 --> 00:03:00,898
I've just been so stressed out.

92
00:03:00,966 --> 00:03:02,733
A rape charge does it
to the best of us.
93
00:03:04,002 --> 00:03:05,203
I didn't do it.

94
00:03:05,271 --> 00:03:06,271
I...

95
00:03:06,338 --> 00:03:07,538
no, I know.
I believe you.

96
00:03:07,605 --> 00:03:10,174
Now let's go work on
that judge and jury.

97
00:03:14,712 --> 00:03:17,614
You.

98
00:03:19,884 --> 00:03:21,518
May I ask a favor?

99
00:03:22,554 --> 00:03:23,719
Court's adjourned.

100
00:03:23,787 --> 00:03:26,622
Back here at 2:00
with your defendant,

101
00:03:26,690 --> 00:03:29,058
or I'll lock him up
for the rest of the trial.

102
00:03:29,126 --> 00:03:30,460
Thank you, your honor.

103
00:03:33,964 --> 00:03:36,332
How are you holding up, Sandra?

104
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,267
I can't lose him, Stephen.

105
00:03:38,335 --> 00:03:40,135
I won't lose him.

106
00:03:40,203 --> 00:03:41,336
I know.

107
00:03:41,404 --> 00:03:42,837
I know.

108
00:03:47,510 --> 00:03:48,776
Get my good side, gentlemen.

109
00:03:57,685 --> 00:03:59,320
Is there anything
you didn't take care of, Liv?

110
00:03:59,387 --> 00:04:01,722
Your hotel bell.
It's a doozy.

111
00:04:01,789 --> 00:04:02,823
Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

112
00:04:11,999 --> 00:04:15,502
<font color="#ffffff">Sync & corrections by </font><font color="#ff0000">into-the-
light</font>
<font color="#ffffff">www.Addic7ed.Com</font>

113
00:04:16,970 --> 00:04:18,238
He really did forget
what time the trial started.

114
00:04:18,305 --> 00:04:19,639
Sandra.

115
00:04:19,706 --> 00:04:21,040
You're right.
He screwed up.

116
00:04:21,108 --> 00:04:23,109
He's lucky the judge
didn't throw him back in jail.

117
00:04:23,177 --> 00:04:25,645
This isn't a parking ticket.
He's on trial for rape.

118
00:04:25,712 --> 00:04:27,346
He didn't do it.
He didn't rape that girl.
119
00:04:27,413 --> 00:04:29,481
I believe you,
but if I'm the jury,

120
00:04:29,549 --> 00:04:31,517
I'm already resenting him
for wasting my time.

121
00:04:31,584 --> 00:04:33,418
Which is why I would
like you on this thing.

122
00:04:33,486 --> 00:04:36,455
You can guide our defense team,
keep Travis in line.

123
00:04:36,523 --> 00:04:38,923
Unh-unh. No way.
Today was just a favor.

124
00:04:38,991 --> 00:04:40,058
Liv.

125
00:04:40,126 --> 00:04:42,161
Sandra, I love you.
I love your son.

126
00:04:42,228 --> 00:04:45,029
But I am on retainer for
your company, not your family.

127
00:04:45,096 --> 00:04:46,497
I help with mergers and P.R.

128
00:04:46,565 --> 00:04:48,533
I don't babysit 27 year olds.

129
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:49,933
I know that Travis
is irresponsible.

130
00:04:50,001 --> 00:04:51,735
I know that.

131
00:04:51,803 --> 00:04:54,805
I try to tell him that
he has to step up,

132
00:04:54,873 --> 00:04:56,240
fix his own mistakes.

133
00:04:56,308 --> 00:04:58,309
Part of it is on me.

134
00:04:58,377 --> 00:05:00,310
After hal died, he went
through a very rough time,

135
00:05:00,378 --> 00:05:02,546
and I didn't always
have the time

136
00:05:02,613 --> 00:05:04,548
to help him sort through
all of that stuff.

137
00:05:04,615 --> 00:05:07,016
And these girls see the son
of a rich C.E.O.,

138
00:05:07,084 --> 00:05:09,118
and they get dollar signs
in their eyes.

139
00:05:09,187 --> 00:05:12,055
That girl is not
the victim here. Travis is.

140
00:05:12,122 --> 00:05:14,157
Please.

141
00:05:14,225 --> 00:05:16,091
You've handled
difficult clients before.

142
00:05:16,159 --> 00:05:17,493
Not ones who didn't
show up in court.

143
00:05:17,561 --> 00:05:18,727
And I already got Travis

144
00:05:18,795 --> 00:05:20,262
one of the best defense lawyers
in Washington.

145
00:05:20,330 --> 00:05:21,730
He doesn't need me.

146
00:05:21,798 --> 00:05:22,998
I need you.

147
00:05:23,066 --> 00:05:24,400
I spend all day
listening to people

148
00:05:24,467 --> 00:05:26,602
who tell me what they think
I want to hear.

149
00:05:26,670 --> 00:05:30,138
You are the only one who will
give it to me straight.

150
00:05:30,207 --> 00:05:33,074
He could be in
a lot of trouble here, Liv.

151
00:05:33,141 --> 00:05:36,110
I need someone on our side
who I can trust.

152
00:05:36,178 --> 00:05:40,281
People don't say no to you
very often, do they?

153
00:05:40,349 --> 00:05:41,849
Probably about as often

154
00:05:41,917 --> 00:05:43,718
as they say no to you.

155
00:05:51,992 --> 00:05:54,160
What's happening?

156
00:05:54,229 --> 00:05:55,629
Morning, honey.

157
00:05:55,697 --> 00:05:57,197
What's happening?

158
00:05:57,265 --> 00:05:58,699
I called Mrs. Hanley

159
00:05:58,766 --> 00:06:00,166
and I canceled
your morning schedule.

160
00:06:00,235 --> 00:06:01,167
Oh.

161
00:06:01,236 --> 00:06:02,302
Oh, for the love of...

162
00:06:02,370 --> 00:06:04,303
You haven't been sleeping.

163
00:06:04,371 --> 00:06:06,339
You paced until 4:00 A.M.
I wanted you to get some sleep.

164
00:06:06,406 --> 00:06:08,208
I had a video conference on
hunger in the developing world.

165
00:06:08,275 --> 00:06:09,809
Mandela got outta bed.

166
00:06:09,877 --> 00:06:11,745
Mandela was waiting for me.

167
00:06:11,812 --> 00:06:13,713
People die if they don't
get enough sleep.

168
00:06:13,781 --> 00:06:14,914
The chairman
of the joint chiefs

169
00:06:14,982 --> 00:06:16,216
and I had a meeting,

170
00:06:16,283 --> 00:06:17,516
I was sitting
with the economic advisors.

171
00:06:17,584 --> 00:06:18,952
You needed one chance
to sleep in.

172
00:06:19,019 --> 00:06:20,352
I am the leader
of the free world!

173
00:06:20,419 --> 00:06:22,821
I do not sleep in!

174
00:06:22,889 --> 00:06:24,923
Why aren't you sleeping?

175
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,827
Mel...

176
00:06:35,301 --> 00:06:37,268
I just want you to have
what you need.

177
00:06:37,335 --> 00:06:38,836
You know that.

178
00:06:45,810 --> 00:06:47,644
I'm doing a tour of
D.C. homeless shelters

179
00:06:47,711 --> 00:06:49,146
this afternoon.

180
00:06:49,213 --> 00:06:51,481
I have to give a speech.

181
00:06:51,548 --> 00:06:53,349
Wish me luck.

182
00:06:57,989 --> 00:06:59,656
Hey.

183
00:06:59,723 --> 00:07:01,556
Oh, what are you doing here?

184
00:07:01,624 --> 00:07:03,058
You're not supposed to be here.

185
00:07:03,126 --> 00:07:04,927
You have to stop
showing up here.

186
00:07:04,995 --> 00:07:06,695
Are you always
this high-strung?

187
00:07:06,763 --> 00:07:08,497
No. I'm just... I'm new.

188
00:07:08,564 --> 00:07:09,799
It's kind of charming.
Relax.

189
00:07:09,866 --> 00:07:11,167
I have a meeting
with your boss.

190
00:07:11,234 --> 00:07:12,434
Um, Olivia, I...

191
00:07:12,502 --> 00:07:13,568
Hey, where are you going?
We have a meeting.

192
00:07:13,636 --> 00:07:14,870
No, we don't.

193
00:07:14,938 --> 00:07:16,338
You called me.

194
00:07:16,406 --> 00:07:17,906
Your guy said that you
wanted to talk to me about...

195
00:07:17,973 --> 00:07:19,340
why would I want to do that?

196
00:07:19,408 --> 00:07:20,842
I don't know. I imagine
so you can try

197
00:07:20,910 --> 00:07:22,376
to kill my story
about Amanda Tanner,

198
00:07:22,444 --> 00:07:24,512
which there is no way in hell
I am gonna let you do.

199
00:07:24,579 --> 00:07:26,547
I don't have to kill
your story, gideon.

200
00:07:26,615 --> 00:07:27,916
You're going to kill it
yourself.

201
00:07:27,983 --> 00:07:29,317
As soon as you publish even

202
00:07:29,384 --> 00:07:31,352
anything remotely interesting
about my client,

203
00:07:31,420 --> 00:07:33,287
all of the real reporters
at your paper

204
00:07:33,354 --> 00:07:34,754
are going to snatch it
right out of

205
00:07:34,823 --> 00:07:36,356
your cub-reporter hands.

206
00:07:36,424 --> 00:07:38,125
By the way,

207
00:07:38,193 --> 00:07:40,627
great piece yesterday about how

208
00:07:40,695 --> 00:07:44,097
the cherry blossoms
are so late to bloom this year.

209
00:07:44,165 --> 00:07:46,633
I do hope they come soon.
210
00:07:46,701 --> 00:07:48,735
This is how this works.

211
00:07:48,803 --> 00:07:50,736
You're gonna leave Amanda alone

212
00:07:50,804 --> 00:07:52,238
and keep her name
out of your paper

213
00:07:52,306 --> 00:07:53,873
for the next 72 hours.

214
00:07:53,941 --> 00:07:57,676
You do that, and I will give you
some background on her.

215
00:07:57,744 --> 00:08:00,012
And if you're lucky, a quote.

216
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:00,980
That sounds fair.

217
00:08:01,048 --> 00:08:03,115
Okay. Good meeting.

218
00:08:03,183 --> 00:08:05,050
There was no meeting.

219
00:08:08,687 --> 00:08:10,121
You bring a lot of clients
to your home?

220
00:08:10,189 --> 00:08:13,225
Just the ones that need to be
kept out of the public eye.

221
00:08:13,292 --> 00:08:15,593
So...

222
00:08:15,661 --> 00:08:17,262
What happens next?

223
00:08:17,330 --> 00:08:20,165
Next we talk about things.
224
00:08:20,233 --> 00:08:21,531
Okay.

225
00:08:21,599 --> 00:08:23,734
Not bad things.
Just things that will help me.

226
00:08:23,801 --> 00:08:26,670
For instance, I need to know
if you have any proof

227
00:08:26,738 --> 00:08:28,672
of what went on
with you and the president.

228
00:08:28,740 --> 00:08:30,040
Why do you need that?

229
00:08:30,108 --> 00:08:32,142
Because if it ever came down
to his word against yours,

230
00:08:32,210 --> 00:08:33,677
we'll need proof
of what happened,

231
00:08:33,745 --> 00:08:36,680
because even though
I believe you, others won't.

232
00:08:38,615 --> 00:08:40,250
I have something, yeah.

233
00:08:40,317 --> 00:08:42,618
I'm not ready to tell you
what it is.

234
00:08:42,686 --> 00:08:43,652
Amanda...

235
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:44,888
My terms.

236
00:08:44,955 --> 00:08:46,489
You said we could do this
on my terms.

237
00:08:46,556 --> 00:08:48,557
I'm not telling you
until I'm ready.

238
00:08:48,625 --> 00:08:50,760
Okay.

239
00:08:50,827 --> 00:08:52,995
Hopefully, it won't
come to that.

240
00:08:53,062 --> 00:08:55,463
Hopefully,
we'll figure this out,

241
00:08:55,531 --> 00:08:58,367
which brings me to
the second thing I need.

242
00:08:58,434 --> 00:09:00,035
What's the end game?

243
00:09:00,103 --> 00:09:01,236
The end game?

244
00:09:01,304 --> 00:09:02,871
A question I ask
every client...

245
00:09:02,939 --> 00:09:04,572
what they want.
What's your best outcome?

246
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:05,974
Do you want money? Do you
want to stay in Washington?

247
00:09:06,042 --> 00:09:07,342
Do you want your job back?

248
00:09:07,410 --> 00:09:09,143
You have options.

249
00:09:10,612 --> 00:09:12,179
I want to see the president.

250
00:09:12,247 --> 00:09:13,314
Excuse me?

251
00:09:13,382 --> 00:09:14,648
I want to see the president.

252
00:09:14,716 --> 00:09:16,683
I want one meeting with him...

253
00:09:16,751 --> 00:09:18,485
Alone...

254
00:09:18,553 --> 00:09:20,854
Face-to-face.

255
00:09:29,247 --> 00:09:30,314
No.
No, it was the caucus.

256
00:09:30,382 --> 00:09:31,482
We were in Des Moines debating,

257
00:09:31,550 --> 00:09:32,083
and the moderator raises
the question.

258
00:09:32,150 --> 00:09:33,250
Mm-hmm.

259
00:09:33,318 --> 00:09:34,752
And Fitz just looked...

260
00:09:35,821 --> 00:09:36,788
Olivia.

261
00:09:36,855 --> 00:09:37,989
Oh, please.

262
00:09:38,057 --> 00:09:40,458
Billy, can you give us
a minute?

263
00:09:40,525 --> 00:09:42,593
Um...

264
00:09:42,660 --> 00:09:45,062
I'm, uh, eating shrimp scampi,
so, no.

265
00:09:45,129 --> 00:09:46,329
Billy.

266
00:09:46,397 --> 00:09:47,430
Liv, I'm eating,
and he's paying.

267
00:09:47,498 --> 00:09:48,832
Do you know how rare that is?

268
00:09:48,900 --> 00:09:50,467
Look, you used to be
the work wife,

269
00:09:50,534 --> 00:09:52,368
but word on the street is,
your spot's open,

270
00:09:52,436 --> 00:09:53,637
so you really think
I'm leaving this table?

271
00:09:53,705 --> 00:09:54,871
Billy, leave the table.

272
00:09:54,939 --> 00:09:56,272
Billy, leave the table.

273
00:10:02,312 --> 00:10:03,412
Work wife.

274
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,047
I suppose that's true.

275
00:10:05,115 --> 00:10:07,316
It is true. Was true.

276
00:10:07,383 --> 00:10:09,284
He's not sleeping.
277
00:10:09,352 --> 00:10:10,753
Not my problem.

278
00:10:10,821 --> 00:10:13,922
So what does
my ex-work wife want?

279
00:10:13,990 --> 00:10:15,957
Amanda Tanner
wants a sit-down.

280
00:10:16,025 --> 00:10:17,792
15 minutes with him.

281
00:10:17,860 --> 00:10:19,094
You and I both know...

282
00:10:19,161 --> 00:10:21,062
and then she goes away,
for good.

283
00:10:21,130 --> 00:10:23,865
This is legit, Cyrus.

284
00:10:23,933 --> 00:10:25,900
And then this goes away?

285
00:10:25,968 --> 00:10:28,536
Then you'll buy scampi
only for me.

286
00:10:28,604 --> 00:10:30,604
We made a president together.

287
00:10:30,672 --> 00:10:31,839
We did.

288
00:10:31,906 --> 00:10:34,174
I miss you.

289
00:10:34,242 --> 00:10:36,209
Yeah. Me, too.

290
00:10:38,279 --> 00:10:40,714
He's not sleeping.
291
00:10:40,782 --> 00:10:43,150
Cyrus, neither am I.

292
00:10:50,624 --> 00:10:52,725
The woman's name
is Helen fisher.

293
00:10:54,028 --> 00:10:55,862
She went home
with Travis willingly.

294
00:10:55,929 --> 00:10:57,797
Claims that things
got out of hand,

295
00:10:57,865 --> 00:10:58,965
he wouldn't take no
for an answer.

296
00:10:59,033 --> 00:11:00,666
How are you explaining
the bruises?

297
00:11:00,733 --> 00:11:02,734
Self-inflicted
after the fact.

298
00:11:02,802 --> 00:11:04,369
Travis is innocent.

299
00:11:04,436 --> 00:11:05,336
Aren't they all?

300
00:11:05,404 --> 00:11:06,772
No. Hell, no.

301
00:11:06,839 --> 00:11:08,106
But Travis is.

302
00:11:08,174 --> 00:11:10,375
I have tried
millions of these cases.

303
00:11:10,442 --> 00:11:12,844
It's a classic
he said, she said.

304
00:11:12,912 --> 00:11:14,312
It'll all come down to...

305
00:11:14,380 --> 00:11:16,247
Perception.
These cases always do.

306
00:11:16,315 --> 00:11:18,015
And you're...
how do I say this?

307
00:11:18,083 --> 00:11:19,483
You're being perceived
by the public,

308
00:11:19,551 --> 00:11:20,651
and more importantly,
by the jury,

309
00:11:20,719 --> 00:11:22,252
as an entitled rich boy

310
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,254
who thinks he can
get away with anything.

311
00:11:24,322 --> 00:11:26,557
To change that,
you play by my rules.

312
00:11:26,624 --> 00:11:27,792
Harrison's your babysitter.

313
00:11:27,859 --> 00:11:29,660
You do not drink.
You don't go out.

314
00:11:29,728 --> 00:11:32,697
No more blondes...
As charming as she was.

315
00:11:32,764 --> 00:11:34,565
Whatever you say, Liv.

316
00:11:45,109 --> 00:11:46,310
You're obsessed.

317
00:11:46,377 --> 00:11:47,844
Do I need a restraining order?

318
00:11:47,912 --> 00:11:49,112
A restraining order?

319
00:11:49,180 --> 00:11:50,513
For a friend
who brings you free coffee?

320
00:11:50,581 --> 00:11:52,081
We're not friends,
and that coffee is not free.

321
00:11:52,148 --> 00:11:53,482
What do you want?

322
00:11:53,550 --> 00:11:55,184
Jane Powell... she's prosecuting
the Harding rape case.

323
00:11:55,252 --> 00:11:56,219
You got any...

324
00:11:56,286 --> 00:11:57,553
dirt?

325
00:11:57,621 --> 00:11:58,987
Dirt on Jane Powell,
my friend and colleague?

326
00:11:59,055 --> 00:12:00,889
So you can threaten
or intimidate her?

327
00:12:00,957 --> 00:12:02,024
Oh, please,
you hate Jane Powell.

328
00:12:02,092 --> 00:12:03,492
Jane Powell
is gunning for your job.

329
00:12:03,560 --> 00:12:05,094
You're so touchy
pre-coffee.

330
00:12:05,161 --> 00:12:06,561
Beat it, stalker.

331
00:12:06,629 --> 00:12:08,630
That's no way
to treat a friend.

332
00:12:08,698 --> 00:12:10,332
We're not friends.

333
00:12:10,399 --> 00:12:11,733
No luck
with the U.S. attorney.

334
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,102
I got nothing
on the prosecution.

335
00:12:14,169 --> 00:12:15,169
Where's the jury?

336
00:12:15,238 --> 00:12:17,038
Uh, these ten
are voting guilty.

337
00:12:17,106 --> 00:12:18,940
But the trial's not even over.
How can you say that for sure?

338
00:12:19,007 --> 00:12:20,575
Demographics, body language,

339
00:12:20,643 --> 00:12:22,476
sociological,
and psychological factors.

340
00:12:22,544 --> 00:12:24,578
We've ruled out all but two
as potential non-guilty votes...

341
00:12:24,646 --> 00:12:26,947
uh, juror 4...
342
00:12:27,014 --> 00:12:28,249
Freelance graphic designer,

343
00:12:28,316 --> 00:12:29,916
bartender, voted for nader.

344
00:12:31,286 --> 00:12:32,419
He's independent, contrarian.
Good.

345
00:12:32,487 --> 00:12:33,887
And juror 6...

346
00:12:35,056 --> 00:12:36,223
Uh, N.R.A. member,
retired marine,

347
00:12:36,291 --> 00:12:37,957
winces every time
the prosecution speaks.

348
00:12:39,493 --> 00:12:40,660
So he's an Alpha male
with a grudge against

349
00:12:40,728 --> 00:12:41,827
the female prosecutor.
Great. Love it.

350
00:12:41,895 --> 00:12:43,296
Hawk, what'd you get?

351
00:12:44,698 --> 00:12:45,531
I can't discuss it.
That's final.

352
00:12:45,599 --> 00:12:46,666
When the guy is in jail,

353
00:12:46,734 --> 00:12:48,200
you can ask me
anything you want.

354
00:12:51,538 --> 00:12:53,239
No, man.
355
00:12:53,306 --> 00:12:55,507
He is a total date raper.

356
00:12:57,943 --> 00:12:59,444
Jury's set to hang him high.

357
00:13:00,747 --> 00:13:02,914
Day three of trial, and...

358
00:13:02,982 --> 00:13:04,516
We've lost them already.

359
00:13:06,686 --> 00:13:07,819
Abby, what do we have on Helen?

360
00:13:07,887 --> 00:13:08,920
I went to her work.

361
00:13:08,988 --> 00:13:10,554
Thursdays at Tony's.

362
00:13:10,622 --> 00:13:12,122
2-for-1 highballs.

363
00:13:12,190 --> 00:13:14,158
Helen and I had a longstanding
weekly drinks date.

364
00:13:14,225 --> 00:13:15,993
Oh, I know the drill.

365
00:13:16,060 --> 00:13:18,429
I used to be so hungover
on Fridays during law school.

366
00:13:18,497 --> 00:13:20,030
It wasn't like that.

367
00:13:20,098 --> 00:13:21,899
Helen would have one,
maybe two drinks.

368
00:13:21,966 --> 00:13:23,567
She never wanted
to be hungover...
369
00:13:23,635 --> 00:13:24,935
Around the kids.

370
00:13:25,003 --> 00:13:26,870
Plus,
working here for a nonprofit?

371
00:13:26,938 --> 00:13:29,072
It's all she could afford.

372
00:13:29,140 --> 00:13:31,041
- Excuse me.
- The bad?

373
00:13:32,277 --> 00:13:33,343
Helen's a Saint.

374
00:13:33,411 --> 00:13:34,845
Special ed advocate.

375
00:13:34,913 --> 00:13:36,413
Head of the American university
alumni club for D.C....

376
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:37,848
a-a Saint.

377
00:13:37,916 --> 00:13:39,683
Which I might add,
you have to be

378
00:13:39,750 --> 00:13:41,351
to win a he said, she said case
without coming out

379
00:13:41,419 --> 00:13:43,552
looking like a regretful slut
who was asking for it.

380
00:13:43,620 --> 00:13:45,521
You're killing me.
What's the good?

381
00:13:45,588 --> 00:13:47,924
The good is she's broke.
I checked her credit reports.

382
00:13:47,991 --> 00:13:50,492
She's over 250 grand

383
00:13:50,560 --> 00:13:51,828
between student loans
and credit cards,

384
00:13:51,895 --> 00:13:54,330
and financially,
the girl's drowning.

385
00:13:54,397 --> 00:13:56,498
You want me to settle?

386
00:13:56,566 --> 00:13:58,233
Olivia,
that's out of the question.

387
00:13:58,301 --> 00:13:59,467
Helen is an airtight witness.

388
00:13:59,535 --> 00:14:01,036
We need to stop her

389
00:14:01,103 --> 00:14:03,138
from cooperating with
the prosecution any further,

390
00:14:03,206 --> 00:14:04,772
and we've already lost
the jury.

391
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:06,641
He is innocent.
The evidence is paper-thin.

392
00:14:06,709 --> 00:14:08,543
Photographs of bruises
on a pretty girl

393
00:14:08,610 --> 00:14:10,978
prove to be very effective.

394
00:14:11,046 --> 00:14:13,113
In a case like this,
perception is more important

395
00:14:13,181 --> 00:14:14,749
than evidence.

396
00:14:14,817 --> 00:14:16,751
The truth doesn't matter.

397
00:14:16,819 --> 00:14:18,753
He looks guilty.
He is guilty.

398
00:14:18,821 --> 00:14:19,954
We'll win on appeal.

399
00:14:20,021 --> 00:14:21,788
That'll take two years,
minimum.

400
00:14:21,856 --> 00:14:24,157
In the meantime,
Travis will be in prison.

401
00:14:25,259 --> 00:14:26,426
We've got an opportunity here.

402
00:14:26,494 --> 00:14:27,494
The girl needs money.

403
00:14:27,562 --> 00:14:29,128
You have a lot of money.

404
00:14:29,196 --> 00:14:31,665
You only have one son.

405
00:14:31,733 --> 00:14:32,766
Settle.

406
00:14:36,636 --> 00:14:38,937
Do whatever you have to do.

407
00:14:41,074 --> 00:14:42,541
That's $8 million

408
00:14:42,576 --> 00:14:44,943
in three installments.

409
00:14:45,044 --> 00:14:46,645
In a way which makes it clear.

410
00:14:46,747 --> 00:14:49,448
The attorney representing
mr. Harding was totally unaware.

411
00:14:49,516 --> 00:14:51,650
The gag order
and confidentiality clause

412
00:14:51,685 --> 00:14:52,851
are standard..

413
00:14:52,885 --> 00:14:54,652
As Charles here's
hopefully explained,

414
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,088
It means you stop
cooperating as a witness.

415
00:14:57,155 --> 00:14:58,423
I am not here.

416
00:14:58,491 --> 00:15:00,091
I was in the building
on another case.

417
00:15:00,158 --> 00:15:01,359
I just...

418
00:15:01,427 --> 00:15:02,727
Which will force
the prosecution

419
00:15:02,795 --> 00:15:04,095
to drop the case.

420
00:15:04,162 --> 00:15:06,063
They've offered to throw in
an extra $500,000

421
00:15:06,131 --> 00:15:08,332
to the special education charity
of your choice

422
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,200
if we leave here
with an agreement.

423
00:15:10,268 --> 00:15:11,201
10.

424
00:15:11,269 --> 00:15:13,236
10? That is preposterous.

425
00:15:13,304 --> 00:15:14,705
You must... I'm sorry.

426
00:15:14,773 --> 00:15:15,906
Ignore me. I'm not here.

427
00:15:15,973 --> 00:15:17,674
10, upfront, one payment.

428
00:15:17,742 --> 00:15:20,310
I can sell 9. No more.

429
00:15:20,378 --> 00:15:22,178
Done.

430
00:15:22,246 --> 00:15:24,247
No.

431
00:15:24,315 --> 00:15:26,015
Helen, we're not going
to get a better offer.

432
00:15:26,082 --> 00:15:27,349
I said no.

433
00:15:27,418 --> 00:15:29,351
You're angry, Helen.
I understand that.

434
00:15:29,420 --> 00:15:31,287
But the quickest way
to put this behind you
435
00:15:31,354 --> 00:15:32,988
is to settle this now

436
00:15:33,056 --> 00:15:35,357
or you're looking
at years of appeals,

437
00:15:35,426 --> 00:15:36,692
years of unfinished anger...

438
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,260
how much would you take,
Ms. pope?

439
00:15:38,328 --> 00:15:39,495
I'm sorry?

440
00:15:39,563 --> 00:15:40,595
If you were me,
how much would it take you

441
00:15:40,663 --> 00:15:42,597
to be able to forget...

442
00:15:42,665 --> 00:15:45,901
To forget you'd been strangled,
had your clothes ripped off,

443
00:15:45,968 --> 00:15:47,502
had some guy pin you down

444
00:15:47,570 --> 00:15:49,270
while he forced his fist
inside your mouth so hard,

445
00:15:49,338 --> 00:15:51,339
you could taste your own blood?

446
00:15:51,407 --> 00:15:54,242
How much would it take you
to be able to forget all that,

447
00:15:54,310 --> 00:15:55,944
to be able to even think
448
00:15:56,011 --> 00:15:58,546
of having sex
with somebody again...

449
00:15:58,613 --> 00:15:59,680
To wake up every morning

450
00:15:59,748 --> 00:16:01,248
and not want to kill yourself

451
00:16:01,316 --> 00:16:02,616
when you realize it wasn't
just a dream,

452
00:16:02,684 --> 00:16:04,752
it actually happened?

453
00:16:04,820 --> 00:16:06,787
How much would it take you
to forget all that,

454
00:16:06,855 --> 00:16:10,958
$10 million, 20?

455
00:16:11,025 --> 00:16:13,860
How much would you be worth?

456
00:16:13,928 --> 00:16:15,328
Hmm?

457
00:16:16,897 --> 00:16:18,798
How much?

458
00:16:26,540 --> 00:16:28,607
Let's go.

459
00:16:44,872 --> 00:16:45,705
Thank you for your service.

460
00:16:45,773 --> 00:16:46,673
Thank you, Mr. president.

461
00:16:46,740 --> 00:16:48,374
Thank you.
462
00:16:48,441 --> 00:16:49,608
Thank you for your service.

463
00:16:49,677 --> 00:16:50,509
It's an honor,
Mr. president.

464
00:16:51,679 --> 00:16:52,712
Gentlemen,

465
00:16:52,780 --> 00:16:54,881
thank you all.
Thank you.

466
00:16:54,948 --> 00:16:56,783
Thank you, sir.
Thank you.

467
00:16:57,885 --> 00:16:59,318
Thank you.

468
00:17:01,154 --> 00:17:03,055
Did you see that?

469
00:17:03,122 --> 00:17:04,289
Hmm?

470
00:17:04,356 --> 00:17:06,191
They had prosthetic hands.

471
00:17:06,258 --> 00:17:08,060
That man saluted me
with his left hand

472
00:17:08,127 --> 00:17:10,896
because his right hand
was blown off by an I.E.D.

473
00:17:10,963 --> 00:17:12,898
While he was busy
keeping us safe.

474
00:17:12,965 --> 00:17:15,701
This country...
Its heart...
475
00:17:15,768 --> 00:17:17,134
I wish you were a cynic.

476
00:17:17,202 --> 00:17:20,037
Being president is easier
for a cynic.

477
00:17:20,105 --> 00:17:22,239
Olivia wants a meeting.

478
00:17:22,307 --> 00:17:24,374
One sit-down
with Amanda Tanner,

479
00:17:24,442 --> 00:17:26,977
and it all goes away.

480
00:17:27,045 --> 00:17:28,612
I think...

481
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,547
I think it's worth it.

482
00:17:30,615 --> 00:17:32,216
We do it casually, discreet,
somewhere off the grounds.

483
00:17:32,283 --> 00:17:34,117
You hear her out,
and then it's done.

484
00:17:34,185 --> 00:17:35,852
We're free.

485
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,154
This is a chance to put
Amanda Tanner behind you.

486
00:17:38,222 --> 00:17:39,455
Olivia will be there?

487
00:17:42,226 --> 00:17:43,927
Like I said,

488
00:17:43,994 --> 00:17:45,895
your life would be
so much easier

489
00:17:45,963 --> 00:17:48,098
if you were a cynic.

490
00:17:56,539 --> 00:17:57,940
Three days out,

491
00:17:58,007 --> 00:18:00,209
we let this go to jury
and we're screwed.

492
00:18:00,276 --> 00:18:02,778
Well, it's going to
because she won't settle.

493
00:18:02,846 --> 00:18:04,746
So... we lost?

494
00:18:04,813 --> 00:18:07,215
I mean... what happens
when we lose?

495
00:18:07,282 --> 00:18:09,383
We're just done?

496
00:18:11,854 --> 00:18:14,321
We're <i>never</i> done.

497
00:18:14,389 --> 00:18:17,992
If we lose this round,
we prep him for appeal.

498
00:18:18,060 --> 00:18:20,461
If we lose that, we prep him
for a second appeal,

499
00:18:20,528 --> 00:18:22,562
because whatever happens,
there's always another move.

500
00:18:22,630 --> 00:18:25,498
Whatever happens,
we do not give up.

501
00:18:25,566 --> 00:18:27,267
It is my name on that door,

502
00:18:27,334 --> 00:18:31,337
and <i>i do not</i> give up.

503
00:18:35,109 --> 00:18:37,376
It's not personal.

504
00:18:37,443 --> 00:18:39,845
She really doesn't like
the word "lose."

505
00:18:45,118 --> 00:18:46,085
It feels kinda cheap.

506
00:18:46,153 --> 00:18:47,552
It is.

507
00:18:47,620 --> 00:18:49,155
Juries have a natural bias
against the exceedingly rich.

508
00:18:49,222 --> 00:18:51,556
Well, I have a natural bias
against rayon.

509
00:18:53,159 --> 00:18:55,026
But hey, if it'll help me
look as innocent as I am,

510
00:18:55,094 --> 00:18:56,194
I love it.

511
00:18:58,998 --> 00:19:01,132
Hey, man, be straight with me.

512
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,467
What's the point of all this?

513
00:19:03,535 --> 00:19:06,404
I mean, if she won't settle...

514
00:19:06,471 --> 00:19:08,239
I'm going to prison, aren't I?
515
00:19:11,776 --> 00:19:14,077
No more yellow ties.

516
00:19:14,145 --> 00:19:16,646
Blue.

517
00:19:16,714 --> 00:19:18,548
You can trust a man in blue.

518
00:19:21,519 --> 00:19:23,386
But maybe we didn't
go high enough.

519
00:19:23,454 --> 00:19:25,888
Maybe we should try again.

520
00:19:25,956 --> 00:19:29,225
I mean, they always take
the money in the end.

521
00:19:33,530 --> 00:19:35,631
Okay, I can't talk.

522
00:19:35,699 --> 00:19:37,533
Not now. You have to
stop calling me.

523
00:19:38,568 --> 00:19:40,136
Who are you talking to?

524
00:19:40,204 --> 00:19:41,837
That reporter
from the "sun."

525
00:19:41,904 --> 00:19:44,206
He keeps calling me.

526
00:19:44,273 --> 00:19:46,607
Look, I'm not gonna
take your phone away,

527
00:19:46,675 --> 00:19:48,076
but I cannot stress
the importance

528
00:19:48,144 --> 00:19:49,845
that you only take calls

529
00:19:49,912 --> 00:19:51,246
from your parents and my staff.

530
00:19:51,314 --> 00:19:53,414
You cannot answer your phone,

531
00:19:53,482 --> 00:19:55,583
not even to tell someone
to go away.

532
00:19:55,651 --> 00:19:57,517
Damn it. He knows something.
He's chomping at the bit.

533
00:19:57,585 --> 00:19:59,186
He <i>must</i> have something.
He likes me.

534
00:19:59,254 --> 00:20:01,121
What?
The reporter.

535
00:20:01,189 --> 00:20:02,723
Gideon.
I think he likes me.

536
00:20:02,790 --> 00:20:04,458
Maybe I could talk to him,
find out what he knows?

537
00:20:07,729 --> 00:20:09,063
Harrison?

538
00:20:09,130 --> 00:20:11,198
I want permission to look
into Travis' finances.

539
00:20:11,266 --> 00:20:12,733
What are you thinking?
He said something about settlements,

540
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:14,300
how they always take the money.
541
00:20:14,368 --> 00:20:15,869
I think we should know

542
00:20:15,936 --> 00:20:17,636
if he's speaking
from experience.

543
00:20:17,704 --> 00:20:19,405
Be careful.

544
00:20:25,645 --> 00:20:27,480
In '08, he made 3 payments
of $200,000

545
00:20:27,547 --> 00:20:28,614
to a woman in Arlington.

546
00:20:28,682 --> 00:20:29,948
Her name's Rachel kline.

547
00:20:30,016 --> 00:20:31,683
23-year-old waitress
at Darcy's in Georgetown.

548
00:20:31,751 --> 00:20:33,218
Let's track her down,

549
00:20:33,286 --> 00:20:34,552
find out what the money
was for.

550
00:20:34,620 --> 00:20:35,921
Can't. She's dead.

551
00:20:35,989 --> 00:20:37,455
Committed suicide
three years ago. Pills.

552
00:20:37,523 --> 00:20:39,691
600 grand's a hell of a tip for
your favorite waitress, hmm?

553
00:20:39,759 --> 00:20:41,994
All the marks
of a cover-up here.
554
00:20:42,061 --> 00:20:43,395
Covering up what?

555
00:20:43,462 --> 00:20:45,363
Liv, I know Sandra's
your friend, but...

556
00:20:45,430 --> 00:20:46,931
If he raped that girl
and paid her off,

557
00:20:46,999 --> 00:20:49,166
it makes it a lot more likely
he raped Helen, too.

558
00:20:58,342 --> 00:21:00,076
Looks like we're gonna get
458 passed in the senate.

559
00:21:00,144 --> 00:21:02,345
A nice victory
for bipartisanship.

560
00:21:02,413 --> 00:21:03,947
What?

561
00:21:05,383 --> 00:21:07,183
I thought we were good,
problem solved.

562
00:21:07,251 --> 00:21:10,185
But this just came in
my mail... my personal mail.

563
00:21:10,253 --> 00:21:11,186
What is it?

564
00:21:11,254 --> 00:21:12,454
It's an audiotape.

565
00:21:12,522 --> 00:21:14,423
Do they call them
audiotapes now,

566
00:21:14,490 --> 00:21:16,091
what, with CDS and all?
I'm old.

567
00:21:16,159 --> 00:21:17,492
Cyrus, you're rambling.

568
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:18,527
You don't ramble,
so now I'm nervous.

569
00:21:18,594 --> 00:21:20,296
Sir, you'll want to hear this.

570
00:21:49,424 --> 00:21:50,824
Cy...

571
00:21:50,891 --> 00:21:53,026
From that first day when you
asked me to run your campaign,

572
00:21:53,094 --> 00:21:55,295
I dreamed a lot of dreams,
big dreams.

573
00:21:55,363 --> 00:21:57,196
I knew you were going
to be president, but...

574
00:21:59,566 --> 00:22:02,301
I never dreamed I'd be
listening to a tape of you...

575
00:22:02,369 --> 00:22:04,870
Moaning with
a white house aide.

576
00:22:04,938 --> 00:22:07,239
That's what that is, right,

577
00:22:07,307 --> 00:22:09,075
you with your pants down,

578
00:22:09,142 --> 00:22:11,177
having sex with Amanda Tanner?

579
00:22:11,244 --> 00:22:12,444
Cyrus, I...
580
00:22:12,511 --> 00:22:15,880
you don't talk.
You don't talk anymore.

581
00:22:15,948 --> 00:22:18,383
Someone sent this to me.
You get that?

582
00:22:18,451 --> 00:22:20,785
Amanda Tanner
is blackmailing you...

583
00:22:20,853 --> 00:22:24,956
Which means that Olivia pope
is blackmailing you.

584
00:22:33,202 --> 00:22:34,469
This isn't Liv.

585
00:22:34,537 --> 00:22:36,938
Liv didn't do this.
She wouldn't do this.

586
00:22:37,006 --> 00:22:38,140
Mr. president...

587
00:22:38,207 --> 00:22:39,374
Liv wouldn't do this.

588
00:22:39,442 --> 00:22:40,742
I don't want
to believe it either, but...

589
00:22:40,809 --> 00:22:42,876
Liv is not behind this.

590
00:22:42,944 --> 00:22:45,212
She wanted a meeting.
She wanted to put this to bed.

591
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,114
You know what happens
at that meeting?

592
00:22:47,182 --> 00:22:48,915
They ambush you.

593
00:22:48,983 --> 00:22:50,984
There were no demands
that came with this.

594
00:22:51,052 --> 00:22:52,586
Just the tape.

595
00:22:52,654 --> 00:22:54,455
The demands come in the meeting
when you're face-to-face,

596
00:22:54,523 --> 00:22:55,756
when they have you
by the balls,

597
00:22:55,823 --> 00:22:57,323
when they're in control.

598
00:22:57,391 --> 00:23:00,326
We both know that's how
Olivia pope works.

599
00:23:03,464 --> 00:23:05,365
There isn't gonna be
a happy ending.

600
00:23:05,432 --> 00:23:07,200
Liv isn't coming home.
Okay.

601
00:23:07,268 --> 00:23:08,268
She's not gonna forgive you.
Okay.

602
00:23:08,335 --> 00:23:09,902
She's going to take a knife

603
00:23:09,970 --> 00:23:11,538
and she's going to gut you,
and she's going to walk away...

604
00:23:11,605 --> 00:23:14,640
I said okay!

605
00:23:19,112 --> 00:23:21,547
Oh, my God.

606
00:23:26,853 --> 00:23:29,021
I just left
Rachel's parents' house.

607
00:23:29,089 --> 00:23:31,089
The mother tell you anything?
She wouldn't talk, but she didn't have to.

608
00:23:31,157 --> 00:23:32,891
She's a fourth grade teacher,
and there's an s-class...

609
00:23:32,958 --> 00:23:34,025
In the driveway.

610
00:23:34,093 --> 00:23:35,560
Looks like a 2007,
maybe a 2008.

611
00:23:35,627 --> 00:23:36,995
That's an $80,000 car
that came out the year

612
00:23:37,063 --> 00:23:38,029
her daughter was paid off.

613
00:23:38,097 --> 00:23:39,397
It must have been Rachel's.

614
00:23:39,464 --> 00:23:40,765
Exactly. You want to know
the best part?

615
00:23:40,833 --> 00:23:42,500
There's an American university
sticker on it.

616
00:23:42,568 --> 00:23:44,235
Helen went to American.

617
00:23:44,303 --> 00:23:45,836
Harrison, I'm gonna need you
to get...
618
00:23:45,904 --> 00:23:47,705
already on it.

619
00:23:50,541 --> 00:23:51,875
You're not a cop.

620
00:23:51,943 --> 00:23:53,210
Not even close.

621
00:23:53,277 --> 00:23:54,945
Usually, all we get
down here are cops.

622
00:23:55,013 --> 00:23:56,814
Sometimes lawyers, but you're
not a lawyer, either.

623
00:23:56,881 --> 00:23:58,281
I'm definitely not a cop.
Some days I'm a lawyer.

624
00:23:58,349 --> 00:23:59,717
But today...

625
00:23:59,784 --> 00:24:02,151
I'm just a single man
looking for evidence...

626
00:24:02,219 --> 00:24:03,986
an old rape kit from a few
years ago if you even have it...

627
00:24:04,054 --> 00:24:05,755
a woman named Rachel kline.

628
00:24:05,823 --> 00:24:07,389
You flirting with me?

629
00:24:08,525 --> 00:24:09,792
'Cause I test rape kits
all day,

630
00:24:09,860 --> 00:24:11,794
hundreds of 'em,
backlogged so bad,
631
00:24:11,862 --> 00:24:14,530
it'll be ten years before
some of them even get opened.

632
00:24:14,598 --> 00:24:16,132
You know what's in a rape kit,

633
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,100
guy who's sometimes a lawyer,
but not a cop?

634
00:24:18,167 --> 00:24:19,835
Swabs from her lips,

635
00:24:19,902 --> 00:24:22,537
her cheeks, her thighs,
her hair, her cervix,

636
00:24:22,605 --> 00:24:25,540
the panties she was wearing
when he pulled 'em down,

637
00:24:25,608 --> 00:24:27,442
the little bits of him
they combed off her body,

638
00:24:27,509 --> 00:24:29,277
and the comb they used
to do it.

639
00:24:29,345 --> 00:24:31,113
So if can give you something
that's gonna get some justice

640
00:24:31,180 --> 00:24:33,348
for one these women whose
pain and shame is in these bags,

641
00:24:33,415 --> 00:24:35,082
just ask me.

642
00:24:35,150 --> 00:24:36,751
I'll do it.

643
00:24:36,818 --> 00:24:38,185
But if you want anything else,
you've come to the wrong place.

644
00:24:38,253 --> 00:24:40,587
The rape kit will be fine.
Thank you, ma'am.

645
00:24:40,655 --> 00:24:41,889
Mm-hmm.

646
00:24:58,538 --> 00:24:59,806
Hey, gideon. Hi.

647
00:24:59,874 --> 00:25:02,075
It's, uh, Quinn... Perkins

648
00:25:02,143 --> 00:25:04,811
from Olivia pope...
And associates.

649
00:25:04,879 --> 00:25:06,745
I was wondering if you wanted
to grab a drink with me tonight

650
00:25:06,813 --> 00:25:08,180
if you're not busy.

651
00:25:08,248 --> 00:25:09,614
If you are, it's completely
and totally fine.

652
00:25:09,682 --> 00:25:10,482
We could do it another time...
tomorrow, or next week,

653
00:25:10,549 --> 00:25:11,850
or never at all, ever.

654
00:25:14,187 --> 00:25:15,687
Okay.

655
00:25:15,755 --> 00:25:17,189
Sure.

656
00:25:17,257 --> 00:25:18,490
Bye.
657
00:25:25,730 --> 00:25:26,831
What?

658
00:25:26,899 --> 00:25:28,166
You're weird.

659
00:25:28,233 --> 00:25:29,466
I'm not weird.

660
00:25:29,534 --> 00:25:31,035
Weird is good.

661
00:25:33,505 --> 00:25:35,807
Thank you?

662
00:25:40,912 --> 00:25:43,546
Amanda settling in okay?

663
00:25:43,614 --> 00:25:45,782
I'm sorry we didn't vote.

664
00:25:45,850 --> 00:25:47,117
We never vote.

665
00:25:47,185 --> 00:25:49,219
Not really.

666
00:25:49,287 --> 00:25:51,688
Trust me. We're on
the right side of this.

667
00:25:51,755 --> 00:25:53,123
Whose side, Liv,

668
00:25:53,191 --> 00:25:55,090
the white house's, Amanda's?

669
00:25:55,158 --> 00:25:57,927
You have a conflict of interest
so big in this thing,

670
00:25:57,994 --> 00:25:59,728
I don't even think
there's a word for it.
671
00:26:00,763 --> 00:26:02,064
Mellie.

672
00:26:02,132 --> 00:26:03,532
I hope I'm not catching you
at a bad time.

673
00:26:03,599 --> 00:26:05,134
No, not at all.
What can I do for you?

674
00:26:05,202 --> 00:26:06,702
Well, you know we have
that state dinner tonight,

675
00:26:06,769 --> 00:26:07,970
and I checked,
and I couldn't believe it,

676
00:26:08,038 --> 00:26:09,538
but it looks you didn't
receive an invitation,

677
00:26:09,605 --> 00:26:11,005
which was an oversight,

678
00:26:11,073 --> 00:26:12,273
I swear.

679
00:26:12,341 --> 00:26:14,309
I'm flattered, truly, but...

680
00:26:14,376 --> 00:26:15,409
8:00. See you then.

681
00:26:16,511 --> 00:26:17,478
Thank you.

682
00:26:23,352 --> 00:26:25,153
You're gonna want to see this.

683
00:26:26,620 --> 00:26:27,821
She met Travis in a bar
in Adams Morgan.

684
00:26:27,889 --> 00:26:28,922
She was just out of American,

685
00:26:28,990 --> 00:26:30,457
working at a lobbying firm.

686
00:26:30,524 --> 00:26:32,159
After a night
of heavy drinking,

687
00:26:32,227 --> 00:26:34,261
Rachel went home with Travis,
and he raped her.

688
00:26:34,329 --> 00:26:35,929
She filed a police
report, rape kit and all.

689
00:26:35,997 --> 00:26:37,397
Two days later,
he made payments...

690
00:26:37,465 --> 00:26:38,832
three payments...
to her account.

691
00:26:38,900 --> 00:26:40,934
Bought her an s-class
to sweeten the deal.

692
00:26:41,002 --> 00:26:42,702
She recanted
her story to the police,

693
00:26:42,770 --> 00:26:45,238
thought she could just move on,
but she couldn't function.

694
00:26:45,305 --> 00:26:47,106
Had to move back in
with her parents.

695
00:26:47,174 --> 00:26:48,441
And then one night
about a year later,

696
00:26:48,509 --> 00:26:50,677
she swallowed enough seconal
to end her life.

697
00:26:50,745 --> 00:26:53,312
She was found by a friend...
her best friend.

698
00:26:53,381 --> 00:26:55,882
She changed her hair
from brunette to blonde,

699
00:26:55,949 --> 00:26:57,016
but it's still...

700
00:26:57,084 --> 00:26:58,384
Helen fisher.

701
00:27:02,221 --> 00:27:03,121
You were right about Helen.

702
00:27:03,189 --> 00:27:04,757
She was after Travis,

703
00:27:04,824 --> 00:27:06,792
but for the money.

704
00:27:06,860 --> 00:27:08,960
She was after Travis
because four years ago,

705
00:27:09,028 --> 00:27:10,996
he raped her best friend.

706
00:27:11,063 --> 00:27:12,998
Her name <i>was</i> Rachel kline,

707
00:27:13,065 --> 00:27:15,833
and you destroyed her life,
Travis.

708
00:27:15,901 --> 00:27:17,435
But you're not guilty
of raping Helen,

709
00:27:17,503 --> 00:27:19,336
and Rachel can never
testify against you,

710
00:27:19,405 --> 00:27:20,738
so you'll go free.

711
00:27:20,806 --> 00:27:22,507
Is this true?

712
00:27:22,574 --> 00:27:24,575
M-mom...

713
00:27:24,643 --> 00:27:26,644
Answer me, honey.

714
00:27:26,712 --> 00:27:29,580
I didn't want to tell you.

715
00:27:29,648 --> 00:27:33,182
I didn't want to disappoint you
any more than I...

716
00:27:33,250 --> 00:27:35,251
I'm sorry.

717
00:27:35,319 --> 00:27:37,621
I screwed up,
and I tried to fix it.

718
00:27:37,688 --> 00:27:38,855
I tried.

719
00:27:38,923 --> 00:27:40,189
You told me...

720
00:27:40,257 --> 00:27:42,459
you... you always said,
I should fix my mistakes,

721
00:27:42,527 --> 00:27:45,094
so...
I took care of it.

722
00:27:45,162 --> 00:27:46,962
I handled it.

723
00:27:57,598 --> 00:27:58,898
You went to Tony's on Thursdays

724
00:27:58,966 --> 00:28:00,432
because the defendant
went there on Thursdays.

725
00:28:00,500 --> 00:28:02,234
Isn't that right?
No! It...

726
00:28:02,302 --> 00:28:04,069
you went every Thursday
for six months.

727
00:28:04,136 --> 00:28:06,104
Isn't that correct?
Yes, but you're making...

728
00:28:06,171 --> 00:28:07,472
you stalked him, didn't you?

729
00:28:07,539 --> 00:28:08,539
Objection. Argumentative.

730
00:28:08,608 --> 00:28:09,841
Sustained.

731
00:28:09,909 --> 00:28:11,509
You approached him
as a brunette, and then,

732
00:28:11,577 --> 00:28:13,411
when he didn't respond,

733
00:28:13,479 --> 00:28:15,413
you changed your hair color
so he would notice you.

734
00:28:15,481 --> 00:28:17,181
No, he hurt me!

735
00:28:17,249 --> 00:28:18,649
He pinned me down.
He...

736
00:28:18,717 --> 00:28:21,451
Ms. fisher,
stick to the questions.

737
00:28:21,519 --> 00:28:22,753
You were obsessed.

738
00:28:22,821 --> 00:28:24,755
You change your hair color,

739
00:28:24,823 --> 00:28:27,057
you follow Travis around...

740
00:28:27,125 --> 00:28:28,592
So you could seduce him.

741
00:28:28,660 --> 00:28:30,127
You went home with him,

742
00:28:30,194 --> 00:28:32,029
you had consensual sex
with him,

743
00:28:32,097 --> 00:28:35,665
and then you set him up,

744
00:28:35,733 --> 00:28:37,634
set all of us up.

745
00:28:51,881 --> 00:28:54,750
He's gonna get off isn't he?

746
00:28:56,753 --> 00:28:58,754
They're destroying
that girl in there.

747
00:28:58,821 --> 00:29:02,457
Travis is gonna be just fine.

748
00:29:04,527 --> 00:29:07,094
I signed him up for everything
when he was a kid...

749
00:29:07,162 --> 00:29:10,397
hockey, soccer, lacrosse.
750
00:29:10,465 --> 00:29:12,066
I figured,
if I couldn't be around,

751
00:29:12,134 --> 00:29:14,234
at least he'd stay busy,
maybe he wouldn't notice.

752
00:29:14,302 --> 00:29:16,637
He was great at everything,

753
00:29:16,705 --> 00:29:18,873
made every all-star team.

754
00:29:18,940 --> 00:29:23,009
In ten years, I never made it
to a single game.

755
00:29:23,077 --> 00:29:24,811
It's not your fault.

756
00:29:24,879 --> 00:29:27,513
He hurt someone, Liv.

757
00:29:27,581 --> 00:29:30,349
He held her down and he...

758
00:29:31,585 --> 00:29:35,021
My son did that.

759
00:29:35,089 --> 00:29:36,556
He's a...

760
00:29:40,060 --> 00:29:42,928
What should I do?

761
00:29:44,998 --> 00:29:46,531
Tell me.

762
00:29:46,599 --> 00:29:49,467
There's nothing you can do.

763
00:29:49,535 --> 00:29:50,468
Who he is,
764
00:29:50,536 --> 00:29:51,970
what he is,

765
00:29:52,038 --> 00:29:54,173
it's not your fault.

766
00:30:05,650 --> 00:30:06,818
Here you go.

767
00:30:06,885 --> 00:30:08,385
Hey.

768
00:30:08,453 --> 00:30:09,320
What...
what are you doing here?

769
00:30:09,387 --> 00:30:10,321
Setting you up.

770
00:30:10,388 --> 00:30:11,588
Setting me up?

771
00:30:11,655 --> 00:30:13,223
Virgin margaritas
for the lady all night,

772
00:30:13,290 --> 00:30:14,791
and whatever her date orders

773
00:30:14,859 --> 00:30:16,292
gets a 3-finger pour of booze in it.
You got it.

774
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:17,493
Put your hair down...

775
00:30:17,561 --> 00:30:19,029
Wh...
and take that jacket off.

776
00:30:19,097 --> 00:30:21,364
Flirt just enough,
but not too much,

777
00:30:21,432 --> 00:30:22,565
and do not
let him see you home.

778
00:30:22,633 --> 00:30:24,300
I can handle myself, you know?

779
00:30:24,368 --> 00:30:25,802
Oh, I heard you on the phone.

780
00:30:25,870 --> 00:30:27,269
You need to be set up.

781
00:30:54,529 --> 00:30:56,798
Lovely to see you.
Here's the prime minister.

782
00:30:58,367 --> 00:31:00,634
Hello. It's wonderful
to see you again.

783
00:31:00,701 --> 00:31:01,835
Hi.

784
00:31:01,903 --> 00:31:02,870
What's Olivia doing here?

785
00:31:02,937 --> 00:31:03,837
I invited her.

786
00:31:03,905 --> 00:31:05,272
How are you, bill?

787
00:31:05,339 --> 00:31:07,107
Good to see you.
You two know each other.

788
00:31:07,175 --> 00:31:08,541
Liv.

789
00:31:08,609 --> 00:31:09,709
You look lovely.

790
00:31:09,778 --> 00:31:10,710
Oh.

791
00:31:10,779 --> 00:31:11,745
Oh. Mm.

792
00:31:11,813 --> 00:31:13,280
Doesn't she look lovely?

793
00:31:13,347 --> 00:31:15,447
Of course, yeah.
I'm so happy you could come.

794
00:31:15,515 --> 00:31:18,017
I wouldn't miss it,
Mr. president.

795
00:31:19,352 --> 00:31:21,087
Prime minister,
delightful to see you.

796
00:31:21,155 --> 00:31:22,388
How is the new baby?

797
00:31:22,455 --> 00:31:23,489
Good to see you.

798
00:31:23,556 --> 00:31:24,623
Thank you so much for coming.

799
00:31:24,691 --> 00:31:27,126
Oh, hi. Oh.

800
00:31:27,194 --> 00:31:29,262
Great to see you.

801
00:31:39,371 --> 00:31:41,273
You're better than I expected.

802
00:31:41,340 --> 00:31:43,374
Oh, they had ballroom dancing
at Andover.

803
00:31:43,442 --> 00:31:45,410
It was the only way I could
get near a girl back then,

804
00:31:45,477 --> 00:31:46,711
so...
805
00:31:46,779 --> 00:31:48,412
I took it twice.

806
00:31:48,479 --> 00:31:50,514
Glad to see
it's working out for you.

807
00:31:55,386 --> 00:31:56,787
What?

808
00:31:56,855 --> 00:31:59,323
I'm trying to figure out how
I can sexually harass you

809
00:31:59,390 --> 00:32:00,691
and get away with it.

810
00:32:00,758 --> 00:32:01,959
Billy.

811
00:32:02,027 --> 00:32:03,392
What? You don't
work here anymore.

812
00:32:03,460 --> 00:32:04,894
You could date me.
I'm a catch.

813
00:32:04,962 --> 00:32:06,029
Or...

814
00:32:06,096 --> 00:32:07,663
Is there another guy?

815
00:32:08,933 --> 00:32:10,533
I'd like a turn

816
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:11,734
with the best dancer
in the west wing.

817
00:32:11,802 --> 00:32:12,836
Oh.

818
00:32:12,903 --> 00:32:14,103
No offense, Fitz.

819
00:32:14,171 --> 00:32:15,271
None taken.

820
00:32:16,841 --> 00:32:17,773
You mind?

821
00:32:17,842 --> 00:32:18,907
No.

822
00:32:19,943 --> 00:32:21,310
Oh.

823
00:32:41,429 --> 00:32:42,763
Keep 'em coming.

824
00:32:42,831 --> 00:32:44,031
Yes, sir.

825
00:32:47,135 --> 00:32:48,269
Don't look at me.

826
00:32:48,337 --> 00:32:49,403
How come?

827
00:32:49,471 --> 00:32:51,872
Because everyone will know.

828
00:32:51,939 --> 00:32:54,374
I can't not look at you.

829
00:32:54,441 --> 00:32:55,842
The song will be over
in a minute.

830
00:32:55,910 --> 00:32:57,744
This is ridiculous.

831
00:32:57,811 --> 00:33:01,214
Everything is ridiculous.

832
00:33:01,282 --> 00:33:02,749
How did it all get so...
833
00:33:04,352 --> 00:33:06,052
Damn it.
Just look at me.

834
00:33:07,387 --> 00:33:09,088
Look at me.

835
00:33:10,590 --> 00:33:12,457
Meet me
in our spot in ten minutes.

836
00:33:12,525 --> 00:33:13,458
No.

837
00:33:13,526 --> 00:33:15,094
I am not spending

838
00:33:15,161 --> 00:33:17,829
any more time away from you.

839
00:33:19,966 --> 00:33:21,833
Stop it.
We're in public.

840
00:33:21,902 --> 00:33:24,202
Look away.

841
00:33:24,270 --> 00:33:25,904
Look...

842
00:33:25,971 --> 00:33:27,471
I know...

843
00:33:27,539 --> 00:33:29,073
I don't have the right.

844
00:33:29,141 --> 00:33:31,776
I know.
I know you don't trust me.

845
00:33:31,843 --> 00:33:33,077
I...

846
00:33:36,081 --> 00:33:37,448
I love you.

847
00:33:37,516 --> 00:33:39,182
Your wife is 10 feet away.

848
00:33:39,250 --> 00:33:40,517
I love you.

849
00:33:40,584 --> 00:33:41,684
What about Amanda?

850
00:33:41,752 --> 00:33:43,253
I love...

851
00:33:43,321 --> 00:33:44,888
You.

852
00:33:53,664 --> 00:33:54,964
Our spot, ten minutes.

853
00:33:55,032 --> 00:33:57,533
You can't leave
your own state dinner.

854
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,168
Watch me.

855
00:34:07,411 --> 00:34:09,578
Generous bartender.

856
00:34:09,646 --> 00:34:10,579
I know. I'm so buzzed.

857
00:34:10,647 --> 00:34:11,580
So should we get to it?

858
00:34:11,648 --> 00:34:12,614
I'm sorry?

859
00:34:12,682 --> 00:34:13,582
I know why you called.

860
00:34:13,650 --> 00:34:14,917
You do.
861
00:34:14,984 --> 00:34:15,818
To find out what I know,
dig around,

862
00:34:15,885 --> 00:34:16,919
find my weak spots.

863
00:34:16,986 --> 00:34:18,286
Let me save you some time.

864
00:34:18,354 --> 00:34:20,322
I have tried every drug
but the needle drugs,

865
00:34:20,389 --> 00:34:21,723
but I'm only addicted
to "sportscenter"

866
00:34:21,791 --> 00:34:23,124
and my BlackBerry,

867
00:34:23,192 --> 00:34:24,993
I talked my way out of
a D.U.I. in Lubbock,

868
00:34:25,061 --> 00:34:27,495
but the arrest record
is still on file... Texas...

869
00:34:27,563 --> 00:34:29,430
and in eighth grade,
I stuffed the ballot box

870
00:34:29,498 --> 00:34:31,432
in an attempt to rig
the student council election,

871
00:34:31,500 --> 00:34:33,233
but I did it to get closer
to Jenny marconi,

872
00:34:33,301 --> 00:34:34,902
not for the power.

873
00:34:34,970 --> 00:34:36,136
Still lost.
874
00:34:36,204 --> 00:34:37,505
Okay.

875
00:34:37,573 --> 00:34:38,806
I'm not giving up this story.

876
00:34:38,874 --> 00:34:41,075
It's my ticket off of Metro
and on to national,

877
00:34:41,142 --> 00:34:42,610
and don't tell me
it's not a story,

878
00:34:42,678 --> 00:34:44,310
'cause that would insult
what little intelligence I have,

879
00:34:44,378 --> 00:34:45,712
and I wouldn't
believe you anyway,

880
00:34:45,780 --> 00:34:47,380
'cause your boss is involved,

881
00:34:47,448 --> 00:34:49,315
and you're a terrible liar
who's not the least bit buzzed,

882
00:34:49,383 --> 00:34:51,985
and I know that because you've
had as much as I've had,

883
00:34:52,052 --> 00:34:53,386
and while
I am genuinely buzzed,

884
00:34:53,454 --> 00:34:55,455
you are coiled like a cobra

885
00:34:55,523 --> 00:34:58,057
'cause you're
so freakin' tense.

886
00:34:58,125 --> 00:35:00,459
Now that you know everything,

887
00:35:00,527 --> 00:35:02,294
let's forget about work
for a couple of hours,

888
00:35:02,362 --> 00:35:05,130
get you a real drink...

889
00:35:07,634 --> 00:35:09,368
Why did you break the deal
with Olivia?

890
00:35:09,435 --> 00:35:11,336
What are you talking about?

891
00:35:11,404 --> 00:35:13,472
You called Amanda. I was there
when she got the call.

892
00:35:13,540 --> 00:35:15,140
Don't get me wrong,
I'm digging.

893
00:35:15,208 --> 00:35:16,875
I called Amanda's
college roommate,

894
00:35:16,942 --> 00:35:18,576
I called her friends
at the white house,

895
00:35:18,644 --> 00:35:22,179
but I absolutely, positively
did not call Amanda.

896
00:35:22,247 --> 00:35:25,449
I'm keeping my promise.
I want that quote.

897
00:35:32,423 --> 00:35:35,191
Oh, Cyrus. Hello.

898
00:35:35,259 --> 00:35:37,260
I don't know what you think
you're playing at, Liv,
899
00:35:37,328 --> 00:35:39,662
but I don't take kindly
to blackmail.

900
00:35:39,730 --> 00:35:41,197
Uh, I'm sorry. What?

901
00:35:41,265 --> 00:35:43,466
I never took you for
the "hell hath no fury" type.

902
00:35:43,534 --> 00:35:44,767
It's a little trashy,

903
00:35:44,835 --> 00:35:46,436
but so is having an affair
with a married man.

904
00:35:46,504 --> 00:35:48,604
You want to be careful, Cyrus,
with how you speak to me,

905
00:35:48,672 --> 00:35:50,140
because I might forget
that we are friends.

906
00:35:50,207 --> 00:35:51,908
Now if you'll excuse me.
What happened,

907
00:35:51,975 --> 00:35:53,576
you danced,
he said he loved you?

908
00:35:53,644 --> 00:35:54,977
What, are you gonna go
meet him right now?

909
00:35:55,045 --> 00:35:57,546
He's good. He has
you in the palm of his hand.

910
00:35:57,613 --> 00:35:59,081
You're being played.

911
00:35:59,149 --> 00:36:00,815
You're being played by the best
politician in the world.

912
00:36:00,883 --> 00:36:02,451
The upside?

913
00:36:02,519 --> 00:36:04,619
The tell-all book that you
can write when you're old...

914
00:36:04,687 --> 00:36:05,987
"the president's whore"...

915
00:36:06,056 --> 00:36:08,657
it's all very dirty
and best seller.

916
00:36:08,724 --> 00:36:10,059
These very nice agents

917
00:36:10,126 --> 00:36:12,660
are gonna escort you
off the white house grounds.

918
00:36:12,727 --> 00:36:14,095
And you can tell Amanda Tanner

919
00:36:14,163 --> 00:36:15,796
that the meeting
with the president

920
00:36:15,864 --> 00:36:17,898
is off.

921
00:36:30,010 --> 00:36:31,811
I was wrong before.

922
00:36:31,879 --> 00:36:33,146
Livvie, it's late.

923
00:36:33,214 --> 00:36:34,414
I was wrong before
about it not being your fault.

924
00:36:34,482 --> 00:36:35,682
It is your fault.
925
00:36:35,749 --> 00:36:36,649
What?

926
00:36:36,717 --> 00:36:38,418
You love him. You do.

927
00:36:38,486 --> 00:36:39,852
But you can't fix everything
for him.

928
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:41,888
You can't. He's playing you
because you let him.

929
00:36:41,956 --> 00:36:43,122
You give him everything
he asks for

930
00:36:43,190 --> 00:36:44,490
and you clean up his messes

931
00:36:44,558 --> 00:36:46,258
and you believe him
even when he lies to you,

932
00:36:46,326 --> 00:36:48,694
and that is...
that is not love.

933
00:36:48,761 --> 00:36:51,330
Love is making him face
who he is.

934
00:36:51,398 --> 00:36:53,031
The best thing
you can do for him

935
00:36:53,100 --> 00:36:55,167
is to do the best thing
for him.

936
00:36:55,235 --> 00:36:56,902
It's not your fault,
what he did,

937
00:36:56,970 --> 00:37:00,671
but letting him get away
with it, that is your fault.

938
00:37:08,314 --> 00:37:09,347
Mr. president.

939
00:37:09,415 --> 00:37:11,149
Cyrus.

940
00:37:11,217 --> 00:37:13,451
This is not a good time.

941
00:37:13,519 --> 00:37:14,586
Olivia's not coming.

942
00:37:14,653 --> 00:37:16,086
What?

943
00:37:16,154 --> 00:37:18,422
She canceled the meeting
with Amanda Tanner.

944
00:37:18,490 --> 00:37:21,158
She was playing you,
twisting the knife.

945
00:37:21,226 --> 00:37:22,926
I'm sorry, sir.

946
00:37:22,994 --> 00:37:24,995
Oh...

947
00:37:30,034 --> 00:37:32,235
I need to get back
to the prime minister.

948
00:37:49,532 --> 00:37:50,899
You want me to turn myself in?

949
00:37:50,967 --> 00:37:54,769
That's a little drastic.

950
00:37:54,836 --> 00:37:57,138
Right... mom?
951
00:37:57,205 --> 00:37:59,807
You raped that girl, Travis.
She killed herself.

952
00:37:59,875 --> 00:38:02,009
But that wasn't my fault.

953
00:38:02,077 --> 00:38:03,144
It wasn't.

954
00:38:03,211 --> 00:38:06,247
Travis, please.
This is hard enough.

955
00:38:06,315 --> 00:38:08,516
So I made a couple of payments?

956
00:38:08,584 --> 00:38:10,384
They can't put me
away for that.

957
00:38:10,451 --> 00:38:12,552
There's a rape kit.

958
00:38:12,620 --> 00:38:15,054
It's got your D.N.A.
All over it.

959
00:38:15,122 --> 00:38:17,090
She never pressed charges.

960
00:38:17,158 --> 00:38:18,992
They don't even have my name.

961
00:38:19,059 --> 00:38:21,194
It happened once.

962
00:38:21,262 --> 00:38:22,763
It'll never happen again.

963
00:38:22,830 --> 00:38:24,431
I promise.
Travis...

964
00:38:24,499 --> 00:38:25,766
I'm not talking to you.

965
00:38:25,833 --> 00:38:27,967
I'm talking to my mother.

966
00:38:28,035 --> 00:38:30,003
I'll go away.

967
00:38:30,070 --> 00:38:31,570
How's that sound?

968
00:38:31,638 --> 00:38:33,739
I'll go to Europe
for a couple of years.

969
00:38:33,808 --> 00:38:35,374
And then I'll come back
and run the company.

970
00:38:35,442 --> 00:38:37,376
That was always
the plan anyway.

971
00:38:37,444 --> 00:38:40,213
That's a good compromise,
right?

972
00:38:40,281 --> 00:38:42,215
That's what
I thought you'd say.

973
00:38:42,283 --> 00:38:43,949
Well, good.

974
00:38:44,017 --> 00:38:46,885
That takes care of the problem.

975
00:38:49,856 --> 00:38:52,724
I've already taken care
of it, honey.

976
00:38:56,229 --> 00:38:59,096
You didn't.

977
00:38:59,164 --> 00:39:01,199
Mom?
978
00:39:01,266 --> 00:39:04,168
Mo... don't do this, mom!

979
00:39:04,236 --> 00:39:06,070
Mom!

980
00:39:06,138 --> 00:39:07,872
Don't do this.

981
00:39:07,940 --> 00:39:09,340
Mom, listen to me.

982
00:39:09,407 --> 00:39:11,075
Please! This is crazy.

983
00:39:11,143 --> 00:39:13,577
Jane Powell, my friend?

984
00:39:13,645 --> 00:39:15,345
Got transferred
to misdemeanors.

985
00:39:15,412 --> 00:39:17,013
Oh?

986
00:39:17,081 --> 00:39:18,481
Something about incompetence,

987
00:39:18,549 --> 00:39:20,550
didn't research
the defendant well.

988
00:39:20,617 --> 00:39:23,186
How sad for you.

989
00:39:23,254 --> 00:39:25,455
Okay, maybe.

990
00:39:25,522 --> 00:39:27,958
Maybe what?

991
00:39:28,025 --> 00:39:30,160
Maybe we can be friends.
992
00:39:30,228 --> 00:39:31,961
Maybe.

993
00:39:41,304 --> 00:39:42,972
You okay?

994
00:39:43,039 --> 00:39:46,775
Why did you invite her
to the state dinner?

995
00:39:46,843 --> 00:39:49,477
Olivia?

996
00:39:52,414 --> 00:39:54,415
Why would you do that?

997
00:40:00,022 --> 00:40:02,990
Because you needed to see her.

998
00:40:07,262 --> 00:40:10,297
I trust that tonight,
you'll sleep like a baby.

999
00:40:18,139 --> 00:40:19,972
Wait. Where's Amanda?

1000
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,841
Change of plan. You're not
getting a quote from Amanda.

1001
00:40:22,910 --> 00:40:24,911
Screwed by Olivia pope.

1002
00:40:24,978 --> 00:40:26,145
Why am I not surprised?

1003
00:40:26,213 --> 00:40:27,513
You're getting
something better.

1004
00:40:27,580 --> 00:40:28,881
Something that will actually
help your career...

1005
00:40:28,949 --> 00:40:30,449
an interview
with Sandra Harding.

1006
00:40:30,517 --> 00:40:32,051
Have you heard of her?

1007
00:40:32,119 --> 00:40:33,852
H.D.X., right? Her company's
worth $300 million.

1008
00:40:33,921 --> 00:40:35,353
About an hour ago,

1009
00:40:35,421 --> 00:40:37,722
she turned her son in to
the U.S. attorney for rape.

1010
00:40:37,790 --> 00:40:39,024
Tomorrow she's going to resign.

1011
00:40:39,091 --> 00:40:40,558
She's agreed to tell you
and only you

1012
00:40:40,626 --> 00:40:42,093
her side of the story.

1013
00:40:42,161 --> 00:40:43,628
Not only will your byline

1014
00:40:43,695 --> 00:40:45,730
be on the front page
of your paper,

1015
00:40:45,798 --> 00:40:48,133
but this story,
your exclusive story,

1016
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:51,001
will be chased by every
major newspaper in the country.

1017
00:40:51,069 --> 00:40:53,503
And they'll get nothing.

1018
00:40:53,571 --> 00:40:55,839
I know
it's not cherry blossoms,

1019
00:40:55,907 --> 00:40:57,942
but...

1020
00:40:58,009 --> 00:41:00,110
Thank you. I...

1021
00:41:00,178 --> 00:41:01,345
Thank you.

1022
00:41:01,413 --> 00:41:02,679
Gideon, that was a meeting.

1023
00:41:02,747 --> 00:41:04,114
You know, I've been
meaning to tell you,

1024
00:41:04,182 --> 00:41:05,349
it's probably nothing,

1025
00:41:05,417 --> 00:41:06,650
but gideon said
this thing at drinks

1026
00:41:06,717 --> 00:41:07,683
about how he never
called Amanda, not once,

1027
00:41:07,751 --> 00:41:08,751
and my gut says to believe him.

1028
00:41:08,819 --> 00:41:10,086
My gut says he's not lying.

1029
00:41:10,154 --> 00:41:11,287
Reporters lie, Quinn.

1030
00:41:11,355 --> 00:41:13,556
My gut says she's lying.

1031
00:41:13,623 --> 00:41:15,624
I don't think Amanda's
telling you everything.
1032
00:41:23,933 --> 00:41:25,533
He's mad at me.

1033
00:41:25,601 --> 00:41:27,602
I get that.

1034
00:41:29,005 --> 00:41:31,006
But if I could just have
five minutes...

1035
00:41:31,074 --> 00:41:32,874
Alone with him,

1036
00:41:32,942 --> 00:41:34,376
I know that I could explain.

1037
00:41:34,444 --> 00:41:36,211
I know how hard this is.

1038
00:41:36,279 --> 00:41:37,912
I'm sure you do.

1039
00:41:37,981 --> 00:41:40,814
You're afraid
that it was nothing,

1040
00:41:40,882 --> 00:41:42,316
that he's forgotten it already,

1041
00:41:42,384 --> 00:41:43,817
tossed you
like yesterday's paper,

1042
00:41:43,885 --> 00:41:45,453
and moved on
without another thought,

1043
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:47,121
and if he's forgotten,

1044
00:41:47,189 --> 00:41:48,722
then it's almost as if
it never happened,

1045
00:41:48,790 --> 00:41:50,424
that what you had with him
wasn't real,

1046
00:41:50,492 --> 00:41:54,395
and that makes you feel
completely and utterly alone.

1047
00:41:54,463 --> 00:41:56,796
But I haven't forgotten.

1048
00:41:56,864 --> 00:41:58,465
I know what happened.

1049
00:41:58,532 --> 00:42:00,500
I know it was real.

1050
00:42:00,567 --> 00:42:02,268
And whatever
you decide to do here,

1051
00:42:02,336 --> 00:42:04,304
however you want
to play this thing out,

1052
00:42:04,372 --> 00:42:07,140
I will stand beside you
every step of the way

1053
00:42:07,208 --> 00:42:10,576
if you ask me to,
I will <i>make</i> him remember

1054
00:42:10,644 --> 00:42:12,944
and you will <i>never,</i>

1055
00:42:13,013 --> 00:42:15,080
ever be alone in this again,

1056
00:42:15,148 --> 00:42:17,116
but I'm gonna need
everything...

1057
00:42:17,183 --> 00:42:19,284
every truth, every detail.

1058
00:42:19,352 --> 00:42:21,186
If I'm gonna stand
with you, Amanda,

1059
00:42:21,254 --> 00:42:23,989
I need to hear all of it.

1060
00:42:29,194 --> 00:42:30,895
I'm pregnant.
