The reason why i choose Mike Hale was because it seems as he has a lot of information on this show and he brought  up some interesting points and clues to the show spoilers that i might have looked at and looked past.


When there is no Mr. Fixit around Call Oliva
The emotion jerking ABC’s very own “Scandal” premiered about 3 weeks ago. The President enticing Mrs.Fixit can fix anything and even the very own rumors about her and the presidents late allegations dropped at the end of last season’s last episode.

Last week episodes kicked off with Huck having some sort of obsession with Commander. As you follow through the show, you see flashbacks of Huck being held captive. Through a series of flashbacks you see how Huck was tortured and family was basically ripped out of his hand. When Huck finally faces Commander he’s faced with the man who ruined his life, what will he do? Well he does what he knows how to do best and that is to KILL, and its not Commander. Did Oliva Lose a Gladiator? or will she lose a Father?

Oliva is facing her own issues trying to work on getting out of a bombing threat and when desperate times calls for desperate measure she relies on  pulling her puppet strings with the President. Scandal full of your most scandalous secrets of the white house starring the very beautiful Kerry Washington and our nations own President Fitz Grant(according to the show). Written by Shonda Rhymes and based off a true story the staff at the white house quickly learns that Oliva Pope is one of the finest in the business.

For every one thing that Oliva Fixes she finds herself digging herself a hole. Her business which is built on fixing the truth puts Ms. Pope in the position to sometimes lie or have herself in some very awkward positions. Shonda Ryhmes receives her fame from executing the tension held with bombs that are dropped the story. Who get’s hurt, who’s going to die? Who is going to go under the bus this time? You can only imagine what the viewers go through as they fall into the story wondering who is telling the truth.

Fans follow Pope’s pursuit of happiness but will it cost her, her seat in the public eye as the perfect fix it. Will she exchange her power for love versus nobility? Or will she receive a revelation that maybe this intense love and firey sex be the doom to her existence?

who’s being over-dramatic now?
