12191808_1187397151290065_6584246110582446905_nScandal season 5, episode 7 airs tonight on ABC.

Fitz works on his comeback with the American public and uncovers something shocking in the process. Meanwhile, Olivia focuses on hiding her personal secrets instead of tending to a new client; and Elizabeth North develops a new agenda.

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.

Scandal season 5, episode 7 airs Nov. 5 at 9 p.m. EDT on ABC.
