In truth, executive producer Shonda Rhimes has not made a decision whether Fitz will discover the truth.

My question is: Does he need to?

Rhimes said at Tuesdays PaleyFest panel.

A woman made a choice about her body that she legally has the right to make.

I havent actually decided, but I wonder sometimes.

We talk about it a lot.

Olivia is on a journey, Rhimes said.

Olivias been on a journey since we started.

Its interesting to me that her primary story is a romance.

Thats what youve seen.

To me, her primary story has been discovery of herself.

She fell in love, got the fantasy and she discovered the fantasy was not real.

It just means that Olivia does not know who she is yet.

I cant tell you that, Rhimes told EW ahead of the panel.

Ive always had the end point in mind.

If you think the debates youve seen in the real world are fun… star Kerry Washington teased coyly.
