Quotes 

• Olivia Pope : This isn't about saving America. This is about saving your legacy. Killing Fitz means you never have to admit what you did. It means for the rest of eternity, whenever someone utters your name, it's with respect and honor.

  Verna Thornton : So turn me in. Go ahead. If you're such a pillar of courage, march over to justice and tell them I shot the president. Tell them about the election rigging. Tell them about everything. Do it! Except you can't, can you? Because, just like me, you know confessing does more harm than good.
