Is about dam time….

Like true Trinis, we love a good bacchanal, so it was no surprise that we were over excited for Scandal Season 4 premiere. Not that our government doh provide enough Scandal but somehow we prefer to indulge in the work of Shonda Rhimes.

The episode got off to a steamy start as we see Jake, all up inside curly haired Olivia’s legs on a private island.

Upon receiving a letter with her wine shipment (Olivia is def bout that wine life) addressed to Julia Baker (Olivia’s alias), we quickly found out Harrison was dead, which causes Jake and Olivia to head back to D.C. to plan Harrison’s funeral since he has no family and was raised in a group home.

So where are the Associates? Where her peeps at?

1.Quinn was the one who actually found Olivia and was the last working “Associate”
2. Huck is now Randy, a tech man who ain’t got no time for Olivia and her BS.
3. Abby became White House Press Secretary.

The plot goes on to show Fitz, being a workaholic and revamping his Cabinet (Maybe Kamla could try the same) and Mellie being a drunk, hot mess since the death of their son.

However, Scandal got back to its roots and took a break from focusing on the exhausting love triangles as “THE FIXER” quickly got to work. I fell in love with Olivia all over again, as a sexual assault case was presented to her involving a prominent male senator, a female senator and a secretary. Olivia presented some awesome monologues on Sexual Assault and Women’s Rights that made all women take note.

Jake questioned Olivia about staying in D.C. and made it clear that he is ‘bigger’, can put it down way better than Fitz and allows her to be the true “rider” she is in the bedroom. *wipes sweat*

The season premiere winner for me though, would have to be Mellie, who made it known to Fitz in her Uggs and sweats, that she was done playing schupid about him and Olivia and is no longer shaving her vajayjay saying, its ‘like 1976 down there’.

Though drunk and grief stricken, this new Mellie ain’t playing. She also revealed that she was not as weak as Fitz since he attempted suicide. Yessir, you heard right, whether it be the death of his son, the disappearance of d’ horner woman or a combination of both, Fitz tried to kill himself.

All the Gladiator’s attended Harrison’s funeral to say goodbye to their friend, while throwing red rose petals in his grave. This helped Olivia remember that she is a Gladiator and not a bitch.

In the very last ten seconds of the episode, Fitz and Olivia see each other and pass so close…yet so far, almost touching each other’s fingers. That moment felt so powerful, as no words were exchanged but it was nothing short of emotion-filled and A-MA-ZINGGGGGG. Would this married man ‘n horner woman fiasco ever end?
