Fitz Is The Most Dumpable Man On Television

OUCH! Funny but harsh…



Ryan Phillippe discusses two of his latest projects and joining twitter. 

I’m kind of surprised by his vocal tone, his voice seems deeper than what I recall from his films like Breach, Cruel Intentions, Stop-loss, Lincoln Lawyer, etc.




Ryan Phillippe’s twitter commentary about other white guys, LMAO LMAO Joran Van Der Sloot! These guys need to take notes, been a fan of his since Cruel Intentions when I was in high school.

Scandal, S02E21: Why Olitz?

watchcolortv:

Why would Jake’s Boss, Rowan, officially task Jake Ballard to come between Olitz?  Since when was Olitz a “national threat”?

And this guy seems hell-bent on splitting them up.  Why?  It makes us think that about Huck’s warning.  ”The last woman that was sleeping with the President ended up dead in the Potomac.”

It’s all so “JFK and Marilyn Monroe.”  You know they found her dead under suspicious circumstances.

Who knows with this show but my guess is the nature of what Olivia does. If the public finds out about Olitz, there would likely be congressional hearings (or even a special prosecutor) to determine if Fitz used the White House to help Liv fix cases. So Congress would have carte blanche to start digging into OPA, who has dirt on everyone around DC, including foreign interests (remember the kidnapped baby Olivia helped rescue in 101?) who may not align with US interests. Public hearings on OPA under oath would be a national disaster.

“Now we can start having some fun.”

Have some Batshit Billy whilst we are at it!

I did a mental review of his interactions with Olivia…the SOB knew about Fitz and Olivia…from the ball where he fake propositioned her and decided to ask if there was another guy, to the clown investigator he hired to catch them both On the Trail, to his own girlfriend which he used….then before we forget when that rather tiny man whose name escapes me was investigating the OPA…and he volunteered that Olivia had an affair on the campaign and Cy, shut it down. There are two reasons he shut it down, but won’t go into that. Billy Chambers has always known.

Pressed that Olivia Pope didn’t want him. Pressed that his beloved Sally Langston didn’t become POTUS. He knew. He always knew. (He just needed proof.) I’m beginning to suspect that he was the one that tried to get his hands on Thorngate too. You gotta hate to love Billy Chambers. I’m ready for a flashback on how he met up with David Rosen. I’m ready for the flashback on how/why Billy decided to become Albatross/The Mole. Let the games begin!

I thought about him being involved with thongate as well. I went back to hunting season to check the vehicle that picked up Artie, to see if it is the same one that picked up David. Looks like same make but def different color and registration.

Hmmm now look what you have done. Gonna have to do some studying and damn Batshit of Epics scene watches. Sigh. I blame all of you!

YESSSSSSS, I think Billy definitely knew about Olitz. Also let’s not forget the scene from 1x07, when Billy and Liv were in the bathroom and Billy made this comment that Fitz deceived the American people and that Fitz deceived Olivia as well…I thought hmmmmm-what you talkin bout Billy??? That comment and the comment he made while dancing with Liv at the state dinner and how he asked her out on The Trail…I think some of Billy’s revenge is about Olitz jealousy.

Definitely not hard for someone to put 2 and 2 together. Billy was present when Sanders Black said Olivia was having an affair with someone during the campaign. Billy had the tape indicating Fitz was having an affair with someone during the campaign.

I am curious whether Billy was the person Charlie called at the end of 206 Spies Like Me and said he was back in town for business…

My Scandal Season 3 storyline wishlist

1. For Mellie to develop a real love interest outside of Fitz, who isn’t interested in her. I really liked her chemistry with the fixer in Episdoe 221.

2. For one of the arcs to center around Wall Street (just for my inner finance nerd). 

3. For Harrison to be majorly involved in a Wall Street storyline.

4. For Mellie and Fitz’ older two children to have some relevance in terms of what’s going on with their parents… after all they are teenagers…

5. If Fitz and Liv out themselves ala Big Love, that congressional hearings start up to determine whether he used the White House to help Olivia fix cases. And Liv becomes an OPA client.

BONUS: More backstory on Olivia Pope!

What are yours?

#Scandal, S02E21:  Who lives in that building?

Completely random topic, but at this point, we have to wonder about Olivia’s neighbors, who keep witnessing random men standing outside of her door, and the guy yelling about Jesus Christ resembles the politician who gave the national press conference earlier today.

For realz, with all the comings-and-goings, at all hours of the night, aren’t they the least bit curious?  You would think somebody would have tweeted, blogged, brokered a book deal or something?  Right?

Plus, Olivia’s 5-or-6-figure bank account allows her to live someplace nice.  It looks nice.  Which means, there could be a doorman, or at least security footage, that documents all of her visitors.

No, it’s not proof, but it’s enough for the media, such as TMZ, or the fictional BCN, to have an orgy of speculation and discussion.

I actually don’t think it’s that implausible. 1) Many high end condos/lofts offer private elevators with either direct floor access or unit entrance, to get access to a certain floor on even to enter the elevator, you usually have to have a code or key. 2) Fitz is not bringing his entire entourage with him, it’s just the car he rides in and a chase car, right? Do you how many diplomats, CEOs, millionaires, etc are floating around DC and would have private security? If Fitz is getting out of the car in a back alley (standard operating procedure with any VIP) that leads to a basement in a disguise (hat/sunglasses), AFTER SS has blocked off other points of egress to the elevator/basement and given the all-clear that no one else is around - of course no one else would see him. 

I can buy Fitz not being seen coming/going from the building. The bigger issues to me, are neighbors seeing in through Olivia’s windows or someone on the inside (WH staff, etc) talking. That is more sensible to me in terms of the press finding out.

Sexy

Fitz would probably say the same thing…..

Tony, I see a theme here

Welp…

LMAO! At first I thought this was from a new Scandal sneak peak and Fitz was sitting down with a reporter to respond to Mellie’s allegations… I was like wow, he’s just gonna bare all…
