Get ready\u00a0Scandal<\/em> fans! We\u2019re going on the campaign trail. The delegates may be battling for a big endorsement, but there\u2019s a lot more going on. We’ve already planned out the exact emojis for you to text your friends when you watch this week’s episode, Bucke Up<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\"Untitled<\/a><\/p>\n

Things are pretty frigid between Abby and Olivia since the whole Andrew debacle — and it\u2019s only getting worse. All of the presidential hopefuls are flying to Miami to talk to Governor Baker and get her endorsement. However, Abby intentionally grounds Air Force One knowing that no other plane around it can take off. This means Mellie\u2019s plane can\u2019t take off, and she won\u2019t get to speak to Governor Baker in time. Mellie takes matters into her own hands. She talks to Fitz, who spills the beans about Olivia murdering Andrew. Mellie now understands why Liv is different and why everyone is so worried for Olivia.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Baker\"<\/a><\/p>\n

With Fitz\u2019s help, Mellie finally makes it to Governor Baker\u2019s dinner. The conversation around the dinner table doesn\u2019t go so well for everyone. Susan reveals that she doesn\u2019t support Baker\u2019s sugar company that\u2019s polluting the everglades and if Susan is president, that sort of thing won’t be allowed to continue. Baker ends up giving her endorsement to Susan. What Susan doesn\u2019t know is that David made a secret deal with Baker — he will stop the federal investigation into her endeavors if she endorses Susan.<\/p>\n

\"Alex:Cyrus\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Michael, Cyrus\u2019 husband, finds out that Cyrus is cheating on him. To get back at Cyrus, Michael gives Alex Vargas information about Cyrus\u2019 part in the staged shooting of Senator Vargas. However, the disk is corrupted, and Alex ends up leaking to the press that Senator Vargas\u2019 daughter is battling cancer. Instead of getting the sympathy vote for his brother and gaining respect for himself, Alex is told to pack his things and leave. Turns out, Michael intentionally gave Alex a USB drive that didn\u2019t work to save Cyrus, who has promised to attend marriage counseling. But is that enough to save the marriage? It\u2019s only when Cyrus comes home to an empty closet that he realizes Michael has moved out and taken their daughter.<\/p>\n

\"Doyle\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

It looks like people weren\u2019t too happy when\u00a0it looked like Susan was trying to keep Mellie\u2019s plane on the ground to keep her\u00a0out of the Baker dinner. To everyone’s frustration, Hollis Doyle ends up winning Florida. Abby and Olivia meet and set aside their differences for one purpose — to take Doyle down. For now, Abby is a gladiator again.<\/p>\n
