This was a pretty good episode, some of them this season have lost the interesting twists. This one keep me watching. Looking forward to seeing the f/u.

I haven't watched this show very much.... I watched a bit of it last night... the only character I like is the squirly guy with glasses that had to turn Finn over with the surgeon mainly because, he said call 911... Oh and Finn..... if Finn had died, he could become a surgeon on Grey's Anatomy... there's an opening over there for a good looking guy.

This show is making me violent because I want Papa Pope to not only die but to die very slowly and horribly.
Loved seeing the mom from Mike & Molly in a different role!
As for Olivia, all I kept thinking is that unless she drugged that guy, he has the strength and training to flip her over and snap her like a twig.

I finally got around to watching the season final. One thing, I must have missed her shooting her father.

She didn't shoot her father, she had him arrested.

I waiver back and forth too... it would be easy to just go with team Jake but Fitz has moments where he can still draw you back in, in terms of "meant to be".
Definitely NOT team Cyrus - even though he is SUCH a perfect villain.

Well, yet another show that I will no longer watch. I LOVED Scandal, it was a never miss show for me, until last night. Could Shonda been anymore bold in her support of abortion and Planned Parenthood? Bye Bye Scandal.

Olivia absolutely shot her father....well, she pointed it at him and pulled the trigger but, unbeknownst to Olivia, the gun wasn't loaded.
Olivia Shoots Her Dad
Jake takes a road trip to find Rowan, but he's just hanging out in Olivia's apartment. When she comes home, there's a very intense conversation between father and daughter, compelled by Papa Pope pulling out a gun. They both give speeches about how the other is incapable of love. Olivia grabs the gun from the table and points it at her dad. And after a while, she pulls the trigger.
But the gun isn't loaded. However, Papa Pope is very upset that she actually pulled the trigger and was willing to kill him, something he never thought would happen. Disappointed, he leaves her once again.

I don't think Shonda, or anyone else for that matter, "supports abortion". That's a mischaracterization. "Pro-choice" includes the right to NOT have an abortion, too. And Planned Parenthood does a whole lot more than perform abortions...they help women "plan their parenthood", which means access to the birth control and education and medical services that PP provides. Without access to birth control, more women would find themselves with pregnancies they did not want or plan for.
Just sayin'...

Sigh... no one who is pro-choice is pro-abortion. We're not all going yay! abortion! It's a fact of life that women are going to get pregnant when they don't want to be, can't be, for whatever reasons or circumstances. None of them ever say, cool I get to go have an abortion now.
'Bold' was the right word to use because too many women feel the weight of others' judgment on them enough to keep silent, even though 1 in 3 women will have an abortion in their lifetime. 1 in 3. Think about that. I'm all for support for these women, and against either pretending they don't exist or keeping them quiet and from their stories being heard. Kudos to Shonda Rhimes and Scandal for this episode.

Notice how blithely it's said, "even though 1 in 3 women will have an abortion in their lifetime. 1 in 3." What we don't say is that 1 in 3 babies are murdered. 1 in 3 babies are denied life. 3,000 human beings are murdered every day because of a "choice". If 3,000 5 year olds were killed by their mother every day the hue and cry could not be silenced but because we've changed human baby to fetus or blob of tissue to try and erase the fact that it's a living human being, a child with a heartbeat....sorry those women NEED to feel guilt, in my opinion, they've committed a murder.
I 100% AGREE that women should exercise choice. My view is, however, that their CHOICE should be in the bedroom, the back seat or wherever their desires take them. The choice to use protection. NOT the choice to end a living human being's life.
Kudos are not earned from me. What Scandal has earned from me is my loss of viewership.

I loved Mellie on this episode too but I am a Mr Smith Goes to Washington fan  also being pro-life doesn't make me want to cut funding to Planned Parenthood. I never have liked the group but the smear campaign the last year or so has been so unjustified. Just sayin...
