Consider it handled.

Scott Foley: [silence]
JM: Scott.
SF: [Silence]
JM: Scott?
[19 hours pass]
JM: Okay!
Looks like Foley is not going to get back to me.
I guess hes busy.
Im Scott Foley, and Im too preoccupied to write half of a two-page blog.
That would just be mean of me.
So … you just get me this week.
Rather than Folina: AScandalHangover Blog, its just Malina: A Blog of Random Thoughts.
It was really good!
Can you guess who held the title up until this point?
Which is not really so terrible.
But that President Fitzgerald?
Another thing that struck me about this episode is that O.P.A.
may be good at what they do, but can we stop looking up to them as role models?
Only Marcus is like … Umm, wait a minute.
Maybe we should figure out what actually happened?
Which is how you know hes new to the firm.
David may have his own moral failings on display lately, but O.P.A.
these are some dark and sketchy characters, no doubt.
I kind of have it down to a science.
Some of my favorite moments from 513 include:
Cyrus Beenes brother Oliver story.
Cyrus masterfully manipulates Frankie V. with an entirely fabricated tale about the tragic travails of a non-existent sibling.
Its a terrific speech that Jeff puts over beautifully.
Those were some very freaky head-games he was playing with Ms. Pope.
I really wanted to press Scott on this behavior.
Maybe thats why he didnt show up to blog …
How great was the Oval Office scene?
I believe it marks the first time that Olivia and Fitz have seen each other since the midseason finale.
you could tell that their usual rhythms are off.
Theyre tentative around each other, feeling one another out.
Oh Olitzers, I feel you.
Tony and Kerry even had me yearning for Vermont.
Well, thats all Ive got.
I guess well be back with Folina next week.
I mean, I hope so.
