Scandal - Season 3 Edit

A bad one. The worst one.

A blackglama mink jacket,

A decade from now.

A friend. Someone who tried to help.

A full tell all. I'd go with James.

A gift, all wrapped up and ready for you.

A go file, an entirely new identity.

A good friend.

A good one.

A guy who saved her from some sort of mugging.

A leg or two...

A loaded gun that I was not about to let go off.

A loaded gun that I was not about to let go off. So...

A lot of respect in this town.

A month ago, and I didn't take it.

A movement? Please.

A movie character? Someone from a novel?

A name is something you can trace, Liv.

A new development

A nice lineup of silver foxes.

A profile in a Sunday "Post" or... I don't know.

A rap sheet as long as my arm.

A scoop?

A solitary creature,

A source in a position to know the true identity

A star is born. You should be so proud

A terrible mistake.

A touch early for me, sir.

A week after the raid, she got a promotion."

A woman that my daughter can look up to,

A young guy,

Aah!

Aah! No! Mary!

Abandoned baby.

About Olivia Pope and my husband got started?

About senators fooling around with their interns

About the girl's family and the gladiating.

About things of which you cannot dream.

About what?

About which road you're gonna take.

About you having an affair with the president to rest.

Absolutely, positively did not have sex

Absolutely.

Acme Limited, but really, it's called "Wonderland".

Acme's in Wonderland. Welcome to Wonderland, son.

Acme's in wonderland. Welcome to wonderland, son.

Act happy.

Actually, Cy, that's up to you,

Actually, I was seeing if you wanted to have lunch.

Actually, it's right up your alley.

Actually... yes.

Adding a new mastodon to fossil mammals M. Matthewi.

Afraid for her life,

After all, we are Republicans.

After her mother's death.

After my speech,

After one of them screwed the pooch?

After the assassination attempt.

After work, and there's always journalists there

After you got shot.

After you recovered from your gunshot wounds...

After you.

After you've drilled some answers out of it,

Again, aren't you part of "they" now?

Against their spouse.

Agreed.

Ah ah. Mastodon.

Ah, I should have screwed that kid,

Aim! Fire!

Aim.

Aim. Fire.

Al Qaeda operative...

All around upstanding citizen. If she's still supporting him

All clear.

All of us women have to break through the same glass ceiling.

All right, Huck, what have you been up to?

All right, Mr. President.

All right, we need to be united on this.

All their correspondence the e mails, the dinners

All their questions about you.

All these questions you're asking...

All this time I've wondered who Command is.

All through your weekend of love at Camp David.

All you have to do is pull the messages

All you have to do is say "Yes."

Alone.

Along with the west wing logs for the same period.

Also, the check is for 27,870 bucks.

Although paleontologists don't think

Always serving a higher purpose.

Ambassador Heller, guten tag.

Ambassadors, lobbyists, cabinet secretaries...

America will believe it was Jeannine Locke

An FBI impersonator shows up

An hour. That's it.

And a cigar that had been in interesting places,

And a decade's worth of intelligence gathering

And a hero to the United States.

And admit everything up front,

And after some soul searching on all of our parts,

And after you've questioned it,

And as intelligent as I am is that being first lady

And as long as she's still alive,

And as the record shows, he was home at the time of the murder.

And at these dinners with your protégée,

And banged him in our bed!

And because it doesn't differ enough from M. Americanum.

And bring back that line about The Bay of Pigs.

And by extension, the nation,

And by the time you realize you should be fighting back,

And can assure the American people

And congresswoman Dandridge has assured me

And darkness, isolation, pain.

And David Rosen

And deal with the consequences,

And dishonored our marriage.

And don't tell me

And drank.

And drank...

And drink your blood if it served the republic,

And dug deep into islam.

And field questions about his sex life

And fix this.

And for the last time, I do not care.

And for what? So he could

And for your own safety,

And get them to release Jake Ballard.

And give me a quote from the White House,

And given all the press that's gathered outside,

And given what I read in that folder about Remington,

And hammer her on,

And he deserves to be buried as such.

And he has made me look like...

And he said he was an assassin

And he said it was like the C.I.A., but on U.S. Soil.

And he stood there and watched

And he was gonna use it.

And he was gonna use it...

And he will never trust me again.

And he's a better person now.

And he's... going to find a way to use you against me.

And heroically throughout.

And his shoe brushed up against mine

And hit her in the chest, we end up dead, congressman.

And hold your hand while you tell James

And hold your hand while you tell the White House press corps

And homeland security, performed professionally

And how I live.

And how you live is not made possible by what I do

And I added more pockets. It was simple.

And I am certainly not gonna sit

And I am okay with that.

And I am representing her pro bono,

And I am sorry about that.

And I am very sorry...

And I asked and asked, but no one would listen to me!

And I blow us all to kingdom come.

And I call the shots.

And I deserve to talk to the man.

And I drank...

And I extend my sincerest apologies to her and her family

And I have been thinking...

And I have to find out about it

And I just need you not to run.

And I just...

And I made fliers and I tried to get on tv,

And I make jam.

And I mean no one lifts so much as a finger

And I picked up the phone to call you.

And I promise I will leave you alone.

And I think if you start looking into this,

And I think you know that.

And I thought, I'm kind of an ass if I only offer you

And I want him released.

And I was grieving, and I did the wrong thing.

And I was taken from the metro right after that.

And I wasn't thirsty anymore.

And I went right to bed,

And I will fix this.

And I will keep you apprised as to...

And I will make a honest woman out of you at any time.

And I will not be able to help him out of this.

And I will pull out our laundry,

And I will push him however and whenever I want.

And I will share it with the world.

And I would like it if when he screamed "mama"

And I would like you to be honest with me.

And I'm bleeding approval ratings.

And I'm going to go for blood

And I'm not ashamed to say

And I'm so, so sorry.

And I'm taking social cues for behavior.

And if he lied to us about the sexting,

And if I don't let Jeannine Locke burn,

And if it wasn't for you, this would've been over by now

And if that doesn't break you

And if the president was having an affair with someone

And if they're right...

And if we don't?

And if you keep looking backwards,

And in order for me to do my part effectively,

And in return I gave you a job.

And instead I'm shopping.

And it didn't happen again until...

And it doesn't matter if anything unethical happened.

And it still works.

And it will be beautiful

And it wouldn't stop until the other night

And it's not just the... dirt floor and the darkness

And it's our job,

And Jake gets released.

And just checked into the grand district.

And keep the lid on the basket

And killed the woman he sent it to.

And leave it at that.

And leave my office. Now.

And let's be clear.

And maybe in time, she'll forgive you... again.

And maybe that's because you're able to see me, too..

And more like Liv.

And most importantly, Jeannine Locke

And my gut said there was something in her e mail

And need to know what to say.

And never use their teeny, tiny brains

And no birth certificate, so...

And no one cares about Chris!

And no plans to comment further.

And not just to your father.

And now it's close to becoming a punchline.

And now Liv is going to make that right.

And now so is his mother.

And now there'll be tv cameras and newspaper articles,

And now...

And obviously I believe they are...

And once after the assassination attempt.

And opened your knees and gave it away

And pretend that I'm not hurt?

And ruined a girl's life,

And say who I am and what I've done

And she detonates as soon as she starts to feel woozy,

And slaughtered an innocent man

And smiled while you told the press everything you did,

And someone matching his description was arrested

And someone somehow is gonna give me an answer,

And step one... leaking Liv's name.

And stop asking questions.

And strap it to that poor mom.

And tell me about your day.

And tell the world I cheated on you.

And tell you how sorry I am for your loss.

And telling that same press corps

And thanks, everyone.

And that building he's coming out of...

And that I blame him for not forcing me at gunpoint

And that is not the poster child I am supposed to be.

And that poor, sweet brown baby

And that would break my heart,

And that... Was a terrible mistake.

And that's what you are... A terrorist.

And the both of us get kicked out of this White House.

And the head of counterintelligence.

And the high water.

And the optics will be spectacular.

And the parents seem opportunistic.

And the pilot on that plane was Pete Foster.

And then disappears into thin air.

And then ended and then started again

And then ended and then started again.

And then he explains it away by telling you

And then he had me bandaged up.

And then I realized...

And then I stood next to you and held your hand

And then I wasn't in Wonderland anymore. I was here,

And then I wasn't so good at my job anymore.

And then shrug for five Sundays in a row.

And then the second time...

And then they put me back,

And then we have to amend our statements?

And then you got mugged,

And then you have to live with those lies

And then you'd get impeached.

And then you're gonna tell them

And then, once your belly is exposed,

And there's a hell of a lot of noise I can make

And they are making the most tremendous...

And they don't like to lose their investment.

And they never e mail each other again.

And they will be swift about it.

And they'll pick up shovels and start digging themselves,

And those stupid flyovers will eat it up like fried twinkies... Mellie...

And those two boys who blew up Boston,

And to be clear, I am the hell

And trust me, B613 is not the kind of enemy

And wanted to go away somewhere alone?

And we have been through marriage counseling,

And we just deny it. Deny you.

And we know what they'll find at the bottom

And we live in Vermont, and I'm the mayor, and

And what I've been doing. You're interested.

And what if I don't want to go?

And what the hell was that stunt you pulled?

And when did she tell you this?

And when someone you love is making an attempt at amends,

And working on his marriage, in that order...

And you accepted money for a sex act, Licorice.

And you are going to come back

And you are going to walk the deserted streets

And you believed him!

And you don't talk to your father anymore.

And you felt terrible afterwards.

And you know Liv.

And you know what else is trending?

And you know who goes down with her? Us. We all burn.

And you make jam.

And you must be Huck.

And you must be... Eli.

And you won't even recognize yourself.

And you'd be the one to testify to that, Mrs. Meyers?

And you'd like to help him avoid that. Isn't that right?

And you're going to talk to everyone

And you're worried. I care, too,

And you've got all the opportunities she had

And your antics at the White House this morning..

And your rudeness.

And your signature.

And, assuming you're here on Olivia's behalf,

And, in case you've forgotten, innocent.

And, Kelly, can you read the text messages

And, people, it just keeps getting better.

And, well, you know how this works.

And...

And...

And... if all we had to talk about

Angry at you, but I handled them.

Anonymous sources

Another fed toeing the company line.

Any luck finding Shelley Meyers?

Anyone I should call?

Anyplace but here, really, as long as you disappear.

Anything at all personal.

Anything else?

Anyway, great to meet you, olivia pope.

Anyway, I thought he was harmless.

Anyway...

Are clients calling to fire us.

Are we agreed?

Are we gladiators, or... are we bitches?

Are we really going to...

Are we united on this?

Are you an idiot, or did you do it to spite me?

Are you gonna get that?

Are you happy now? He's filthy.

Are you kidding me? By who?

Are you okay? Do you need anything?

Are you serious? Oh, I'm a little sore.

Are you spying on me? Is that it?

Are you watching this hack?

As a family... To baby Teddy.

As a party girl.

As enemies of the United States...

As I've said, I don't know you.

As the FBI continues to negotiate

As they beat the crap out of me.

As they step off the chopper? That's Kennedy.

As unnamed White House staffers

As we head into the next election.

As you know, Mrs. Meyers, in US law

As you know, what happens to Jake is up to you.

As your fellow citizen.

Ashamed and embarrassed by my behavior.

Aside from the reporters, the only people getting through

Ask around?

Ask for Miguel.

Ask your friend Huck.

At 12:04 from the...

At a certain point, it just stops,

At a time when the only organ people care about is his penis.

At home with my husband.

At least in front of my face, all right?

At least, he's sweet to me.

At Ms. Oaks' apartment to murder her? He could not

At the courthouse convincing judge Gaynes

At the Democratic debate last night?

At the end of the flight.

At the highest levels, brought other CIA Operatives

At the very least, you could have aimed for

At this point, I'm more interested

At which point you will call your friends at B613

Attacked a couple of commuters, in and out of jail,

B613 has him.

B613 has taken Jake Ballard,

B613 run by a man called "Command".

B613? I... I'm afraid I don't know

Babies get dirty, don't they? So what?

Baby Huck's choking. It's the FBI,

Baby's out, too. Didn't have to drug her.

Backing up, friends say his dad died when he was 16.

Ballard? Sir, I told you,

Barring any kind of special prosecutor probe

Be bold. Condemn me.

Be my eyes and ears. Abby, work your contacts at justice.

Be the leader I've always wanted to be.

Because all I've ever wanted to do is tell the truth

Because every time you do,

Because from where I'm sitting,

Because I can.

Because I can.

Because I can... and realized taat's the exact amount she had

Because I have personally been affected

Because I look at it this way...

Because I'm enjoying these Sunday dinners

Because I'm not that good an actor, Ms. Pope.

Because if you did,

Because my gut says that Chris was innocent.

Because my son was killed, and I wanna know why!

Because of the relationship,

Because of the way things were very deliberately set up

Because Olivia Pope still walks this earth.

Because our president told me to.

Because she has been to nothing but the best...

Because someone specifically told me

Because that is not you making a mistake.

Because that's the only place you have a chance

Because they did not know his true loyalties.

Because this is over! We are done!

Because we are not married to one another.

Because we are playing "Let's make a deal."

Because whatever you or I might feel for Olivia personally,

Because whiskey is good.

Because you had a secret meeting.

Because you were feeling your mortality.

Because you've never really had fine wine.

Because... and here's the best part...

Become the rule in this country and not the exception.

Been dreaming of burgers.

Before any shots are fired. Hey!

Before you got the bright idea to go on national television

Behind door number one is me getting up

Behind door number two is me giving you exactly what you want

Believe a wife's testimony anyway

Believe me.

Besides the fact that her husband's circumcised.

Best wines in the district.

Bet the White House would love to know how much

Between that organization and the executive branch.

Blah, blah, blah.

Both in the courtroom and in the media.

Both of you are gonna listen to me!

Bottom feeders like Vanessa tend to troll

Boy, do I love a slutty teen.

Breaking his marriage vows and laying with another woman.

Breaking news at this hour

Bringing your whore into the White House as first lady.

Built for F.D.R

Business hours

But 57 lives depend on that,

But are you sure it was him?

But but... I can't.

But can you look into his story?

But considering there's a bomb ticking,

But even those dried up. I'm not sure how he got by financially.

But Fitz said he was exhausted, and...

But Fitz was just wired, so...

But here's what I do believe.

But I am not going to stand in the rose garden

But I can still I can kill a man

But I did not so much as lay one finger on that girl.

But I didn't.

But I do have my conscience,

But I fully support that principle.

But I have also been your friend and your champion.

But I I'm trying now.

But I try not to.

But I was in the Navy at the same time.

But I'm actually running off to a meeting on the hill.

But if she were to get ahold of that file,

But if we could get something on him..

But if you push, you will know me well,

But in return, you will do the same,

But isn't that essentially prostitution by another name?

But it is full of ideas

But it made him a martyr to Al Qaeda

But it sounds very painful, so...

But it's really just a hookup site.

But Jake Ballard has been taken,

But let's leave that part out when we tell the story.

But let's talk about your future.

But like I said, I am celebratin'.

But my client isn't a murderer.

But really, it's called Wonderland.

But sending your husband to prison...

But she doesn't seem to have any more money than he did.

But she never lived in the family home again

But she won't forgive herself.

But some people are just beyond even your ability to help.

But thank you for the true story.

But the man who sent those pictures...

But the mastodon was the far more dangerous beast.

But the photo op after

But then they've never tried to find me again.

But then veterans affairs called this morning, and...

But then you had to go and break rule number one...

But there's no file unless you make some

But there's nobody who can prove that.

But they won't say why they thought that.

But this thing...

But this time was different.

But today is not a normal day

But we had a deal,

But we have a job to do here,

But we'll speak soon, I promise.

But when he was beating up those guys,

But when she walked out, there was no baby

But why?

But you can't tell his mother that.

But you cannot call Olivia, because there is no way in hell

But you care now, don't ya?

But you don't have them with you for the statement.

But you don't wanna know them.

But you find any opportunity each and every day to belittle

But you know what is weird, though?

But you need to prepare yourself for what might be inside it.

But you need to tell Mary

But you used to talk to your father,

But you'll have to tell her you couldn't save the day.

But your team's on the wrong side of this one

But, no, either you didn't see the potential,

But, Olivia, this man is homeless, a transient.

But, uh, then... I don't know.

But... the mole, I mean, not his...

But... we already have a gig.

Buy us some time with the judge until we track Shelley down.

By a homeless man. For the record,

By hacking into the FBI to get the file.

By leaking her name through anonymous sources,

By night, he's a perving, sexting pervy perv

By President Kennedy.

By real mistress jeannine Locke, and now this.

By the President?

By the time he's cutting the ribbon on his library

By these brutal and underhanded character attacks myself.

Call them up.

Called B613 run by a man called "Command"

Calm down, Cyrus.

Calm down, Cyrus. Pete Foster killed Pete Foster.

Calm down, Cyrus. Pete Foster killed Pete Foster.

Came home to papa.

Camp David, where...

Can go back to the business of running the country.

Can I come up?

Can I...borrow your phone?

Can we bring up the video? There it is.

Can you do that for me?

Can you do that for me?

Can you do that?

Can you get me access to the FBI file on the raid?

Can you give us an idea of how high up

Cannot go to the land of the bunga bunga party

Captain Jake Ballard has been taken by B613.

Celebrating?

Certainly not Shelley. She was out shopping that night.

Charlie...

Chief of staff, secretary of state!

Chris Lawrence was an American hero,

Chris Lawrence was CIA.

Chris Lawrence was killed by the FBI

Chris Lawrence was not a terrorist.

Chris Lawrence, 25, gunned down

Clear! Clear! No!

Clearing Jeannine's name means going after the White House,

Clearly you have a crush on the president.

Climb through it.

Code black, code black!

Come hell or high water

Come on, Brooke, the real question

Come on. Do it.

Come on. Don't cry.

Come out of the woodwork and more details emerge.

Coming to light in the Senator Meyers scandal

Command. Your father, even after all that time...

Commander Boles, the President just joined us.

Commander Boles, what the hell is going on out there?

Commander Boles. I just need a second to talk to you.

Commander, if you shoot, make a move, we all die.

Congressman Struthers, six of his staff,

Congresswoman Josephine Marcus of Montana.

Continues to examine the scope of the threat.

Could be ten minutes, could be ten hours.

Could eat at a place with cheeseburgers?

Couldn't we just kill another intern?

Cowboy boots? Are those...

Crap, crap, crap!

Crap!

Cut this meeting short.

Cyrus won't stand by you. The democrats would love that.

Cyrus, maybe you and I should get together and discuss this.

Dad, this is Senator Edison Davis.

Dad?

Damn right.

Dates and times and locations.

David Rosen will rip you to shreds.

David won't give up the file.

David, look, I'm just a little confused here

Day two here at the Jeannine Locke/president grant scandal,

Dead? (Chuckles) No.

Despite orders by the judge to the contrary.

Detail, atten hut!

Detail, halt!

Detailing her strong feelings for the president.

Did he send you to watch me?

Did I not raise you for better?

Did she ever mention the defendant, Senator Meyers?

Did time on the D.C. circuit...

Did you do this for my brother?

Did you ever get a chance to look into that thing

Did you give her a name?

Did you know Gettysburger delivers?

Did you know they wouldn't even bury him?

Did you present her with gifts of high end jewelry,

Did you say Pete Foster?

Did you try setting a...

Did you... is he...

Did...

Did... you... give... her a name?

Didn't hang with the Georgetown set.

Didn't have the dough. Her dad must have spent

Didn't you live in union station when you were homeless?

Died when Olivia was 12.

Dig through every e mail, every promotion,

Dinner with your dad?

Ditto, Jeffrey Mullins. Ditto, Kevin Choi.

Do for me?

Do I have to call security, Mr. Rosen?

Do I need a lawyer, Cy?

Do it, Cy. Open your mouth.

Do it.

Do it.

Do not hang up. I need you to acknowledge

Do not touch me.

Do they kill you?

Do whatever you have to do to stall.

Do you blame her?

Do you even know what you're saying?

Do you have any idea how many times I begged you

Do you have to be so mediocre?

Do you know how hard it's been

Do you know what time it is?

Do you love your husband, Mrs. Meyers?

Do you teach people how to kill?

Do you teach people how to kill?

Do you think you and your dad

Do you think?

Do you think...

Do you throw them in a hole until they go insane?

Do you understand?

Do you want to have sex...

Do you work in Wonderland?

Do you... drink?

Does everything have to be transactional in this town?

Does he know your father's command?

Does he think I'm an idiot?

Does he?

Does it look like they're bringing in the file?

Does the name Chris Lawrence ring a bell?

Does the name Pete Foster mean anything to you?

Doesn't matter what party you're from.

Doesn't negotiate with terrorists,

Don't answer it.

Don't bother. She clearly has a death wish.

Don't call me again.

Don't do this alone, Huck.

Don't feel bad about it.

Don't give up hope. My team is out there.

Don't knock a fried twinkie till you've tried one.

Don't lie.

Don't make me do this to her.

Don't push.

Don't run! I have done dark things,

Don't tell me what to do with the son

Don't touch me.

Don't we?

Don't worry. I'm not here to kill you.

Don't you have that friend at the FBI?

Don't.

Don't.

Doom, gloom, fate of the republic. I get it.

Door number one, I tell the truth

Door number two, I admit to the Jeannine affair

Down on your knees praying to Saint Olivia Pope,

Drank whiskey.

Dredging things up that ought to stay buried,

Dredging things up that ought to stay buried,

Drink up. I live to fight another day!

Drugs?

Easy. The fanciest hotel I could find.

Eat fast food, stare at the Internet,

Eating away at you month after month,

Edison was recently appointed to the Senate Intel Committee,

Edison?

Edison...

Electric bill's getting... paid, Abby.

Eli Pope.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton.

Especially at the moment.

Ethan?

Even after everything,

Even better. She's inexperienced.

Even her gym membership was paid for by...

Even if Liv won't.

Even if she's a democrat?

Even the rookie who was three weeks out of Quantico.

Even though I was married and I knew it was wrong.

Even with us?

Every date I was out of town during the last year,

Every day she made us proud to be her parents.

Every late night call log from the oval,

Every Sunday night like clockwork?

Every Sunday.

Every time some 6 foot somebody shows up in a body bag.

Everybody is going,

Everyone is very sorry...

Everyone knew it was going on,

Everything there is to know about him.

Everything will be fine. Good bye, Olivia.

Exactly.

Exactly.

Except for the boots, or so I thought.

Excuse me a moment.

Excuse me?

Excuse me?

Excuse me. I'm looking for a David Rosen.

Explains the formality.

Eyes straight ahead, no looking around corners,

Facing death.

Father Eli curates antiquities at the Smithsonian.

FBI file is classified.

Find out if he's still alive, and if he is,

Find out why they've refused to give Mary any details

Fine.

Fine.

Fire.

First why did you lie to me?

First lady apologized. Apology accepted.

First lady!

First she's accused of an affair with the President,

First they'll smile, be warm, sympathetic, on your side,

First thing in the morning, live.

Fitz and I attended four inaugural balls.

Fitz and I hold hands and smile at Oprah

Fitz and I slept together twice.
