Scandal: Season Premiere

Thought I would try a new show out, since all of my others will be on hiatus until summer begins. Let's see what we think!

Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington), who used to work for the President, now does secret agent lawyer/detective work for her private clients. She has a crew that works with her. She just hired a new associate who seems a bit scared but honored to work with her. So we have the tech guy, the litigator (who will propose to his girlfriend), Abby (the redhead investigator) and Quinn, the new girl.

The scandal they are working on is a medal of honor winner and retired vet's girlfriend was murdered and he is the prime suspect. She believes he is innocent, since she always trusts her gut. She has 36 hours to figure out if he really did it. She finds out in the end that he did not do it, but he is a gay man and that is his alibi for that night. He refuses to come forward about it and is willing to go to jail instead. At the end, he comes forth and announces he is gay and is let go.

Meanwhile, the president asks to see her. There is a Monica Lewinsky scandal going on with his intern. (Played by Gilmore Girl's Paris!) and she tells her to back off, even though this girl says the dog was given to her. She tries to slit her wrists because of it. When Olivia hears that he called her "Sweet Baby" she knows he is lying. Apparently they had an affair as well, that ended because he was married and she moved on. She then takes Amanda as a client and the president feels threatened.
