Scandal season 4, episode 6: An Innocent Man airs tonight on ABC.
An incarcerated assassin asks to see Olivia and insists he’s not guilty. Meanwhile, Mellie feels a camaraderie with a former first lady; Elizabeth makes progress with her corruption plan; and Fitz does something unexpected.
“Everyone has a secret and Olivia Pope has dedicated her life to protecting and defending the public images of the nation’s elite and keeping those secrets under wraps. Revered and feared at the same time, Olivia, a former communications director to the president of the United States, left the White House to open her own prominent crisis management firm. She is hoping to start a new chapter in her life — both professionally and personally — but she can’t seem to completely cut ties with her past. Slowly, it becomes apparent that her dysfunctional staff, who specializes in fixing other people’s lives, can’t quite fix the ones closest at hand – their own.
“Olivia’s former boss, President Fitzgerald Grant, and his chief of staff, Cyrus Beene, are never far from her beat. Her clients aren’t the only ones with secrets, though; surprisingly, she may need to exercise all her damage control skills on her own behalf.”
Scandal season 4, episode 6 airs Oct. 30 at 9 p.m. EDT on ABC. Video here.
