Scandal: Trump Card: First Thoughts (spoilers)

I have just watched the recent episode of Scandal and I am having trouble finding the right words to describe it. I will start off with Edison Davis. Edison has never been a favorite character of mine, but I even kind of liked him in tonight's episode. Him going off about Hollis Doyle was pure awesome to me, and the fact that he stood up big time to Eli. He ended his run and that made for a very happy Cyrus on team Vargas. I was going nuts when Jake and Eli came in and Eli basically sicked Jake on Edison. Only once Jake was alone with Edison he told him to tell Olivia he needed help, and he was chasing the sun. I was screaming at my TV at that moment. This episode got so me so hyped for the finale next week.

Olivia's secret abortion is now shared with Abby, and apparently her father. Papa Pope handed that golden nugget to Abby and she fought hard on if she should use it or not. Olivia and Abby are in the Oval with Susan, Liz, David, Fitz and Mellie when Abby makes the choice to keep her mouth shut. They give the worst dirt they have on each candidate and give them the choice to continue and be attacked publicly or to end their campaign. Olivia tells Susan about David giving up on his case so that Susan could win Florida, which she didn't even do. Olivia later shows up at Abby's and Abby tells her that she knows about the abortion. Olivia just tells her that the only person that would be hurt is Him meaning of course Fitz. Olivia tells Abby that she is not ashamed of what she did and that it would only hurt Him, and that nobody knew about it. When Abby tells her that Papa Pope gave her the information she adds that he isn't done with Olivia yet.

A highlight of mine is Marcus and Mellie's adorable little thing going on. He is building her up and it is adorable. That hug she gave him in the hallway after Susan announced she was ending her campaign was just everything. Then they had a moment where he almost went in for the kiss but was stopped. I was just sitting there going "WHAT" it was a great moment in the episode. I would love to see Marcus and Mellie have a thing. I think it would actually be kind of cute.

Now to the moments that broke my heart and just made me say "Way to go." Susan Ross told off David when she found out that he had given up that case so she could get Florida backing her. It was yet another stab in the back that Susan just could not forgive. She forgave him for cheating because she saw the man he really was, but that was because he took a stand and would not give up that case, which is exactly what he ended up doing. David just has made no good decisions since being with Susan. In the beginning David proposes to Susan and it was so cute. I really wanted them to work, but when she found out there was yet another betrayl from David that was it. She handed his ass to him and it was amazing. She told him basically that she knew she was an amazing person and that he was not deserving of her, and she was getting out of that mess before it got any worse. It was a crazy scene that was so wonderfully done.

Next week is the finale and I cannot wait. Will Fitz find out about the abortion? Who will the running mates be for Mellie and Vargas? Will Liv save Jake? So many questions are running through my head and I've got to wait another week to get answers. After this I need a good night's rest. Thank you for reading, and I hope you check back for more.

Eric Northman and Sookie Stackhouse

Hello world, today the ship is going to be Eric Northman and Sookie Stackhouse from True Blood. Ever since the first season I had liked Eric more than Bill, and I thought his moments with Sookie were so real. Does that make sense? A lot has happened over the years, but when Eric and Sookie were finally a thing, or as close to a thing as they can get I was so happy. Of course it doesn't last long because it is always that never ending 'which man to choose' battle going on in her head. I am still holding out for a bit of hope that they end up together, but probably not. Especially with recent events leaving Eric to catch the sunlight, and since Warlowe is dead the blood that was taken from him is also done for. So Eric is off in another place alone when he comes out butt naked, and sits to read in the sunlight. I really did like this scene for multiple reasons, but it was a great scene because Eric thought he was safe, and that he could do what he wanted but that is not t...

Pretty Little Liars: Ali Back in Rosewood

I was late watching the new episode of Pretty Little Liars because I have been watching a lot of General Hospital the last few days. I like that Ali is back in Rosewood because now we are going to see a whole other thing start to happen. Now that Shanna is no more they think they are safe, but Ali gets a text that lets her know it is far from over. So while Ali is about to tell Hollbrook everything that happened she comes up with this fake story about how she was kidnapped and what not. Jason is acting very strange these days and it is freaking me out. He basically threatened Hanna and Emily when they left Ali's house one night and they were talking about an e-mail on Mrs. D's computer that read 'I can't protect you anymore.' I am thinking that went to Jason, could he be the one who hit Ali with that rock? Mona is back in Mikes life which is getting to Aria especially since she heard Ali's side of the story. That Mona had been in on the whole A thing all alo...
