Cyrus Beene: A president's far more powerful the night he's elected and the day he dies than at any other point in his presidency. I've always believed that. And Luna, with those blood stains on her dress? It's like Jackie Kennedy in her pink Chanel suit. Put her in the Oval... she'd be unstoppable. Anyway. Question for you now, if you haven't answered it already, is how to get rid of her... What? Why are you looking at me like that? Liv?
Olivia Pope: This was you.
Cyrus Beene: What are you talking about?
Olivia Pope: Jackie Kennedy? The pink Chanel suit? The night he's elected. The day he dies? Unstoppable? It's exactly the way Luna put it. You planted that seed in her head just like you're planting a seed now in mine, hoping I'll get rid of Luna and make you VP. This is the ending you wanted.

Cyrus Beene: Tell me something. That executive order you had Mellie sign? That's not much money for Defense, is it? Sounds to me like we both got what we wanted.
Olivia Pope: Stay in town.
Cyrus Beene: So you can drag me back to jail?
Olivia Pope: So I can nominate you.
Cyrus Beene: How does it feel to be the most powerful person in the world?
Olivia Pope: Right. It feels right.
