At first, it seemed as though Olivia Pope’s (Kerry Washington) mother Maya (Khandi Alexander) was at fault, but it was later revealed she was actually hired to assassinate Mellie (Bellamy Young) at the inauguration. But, plot twist: Maya wanted to kill the real mastermind, newly-elected Vice President Luna Vargas (Tessie Santiago), though her attempt was thwarted.

The Beltway drama is not slowing down, y’all.
In an exclusive sneak peek at Thursday night’s Scandal, White House Chief of Staff Abby Whelan (Darby Stanchfield) is once again at odds with her ex David Rosen (Joshua Malina), the sitting Attorney General who is nearly literally going after the head of the presumptive Peotus, Cyrus Been (Jeff Perry).
Rosen wants to try Beene, who is technically the Vice President-elect, for the election night assassination of President-elect Frankie Vargas (Ricardo Chavira) — whose death came as a horrific shock just moments after Vargas’ victory and eventually elevated Cyrus to Commander-in-Chief.
