Scandal (TV Series)

The Last Supper (2014)

Joshua Malina: David Rosen

Quotes 

• Olivia Pope : We need you to handle this discreetly.

  Jake Ballard : Discreetly and creatively.

  David Rosen : Wait, what do you mean?

  President Fitzgerald Grant : If we held a trial and the court records became public, not only would it blow back on Livvie as the daughter of the man we're accusing, but it could disrupt the entire government, and mire it in scandal for generations to come.

  Olivia Pope : You see how that would be a problem, yes?

  David Rosen : So, if I'm to understand correctly, you're looking for a legal avenue that provides the kind of discretion that, say, a military tribunal would provide? Even though that hasn't been a legal - legal avenue since, what, 1866?
