You not knowing how to feel about Fitz and Olivia is exactly how I felt lol it’s soooo wrong like there’s no excuse for cheating. Butttttt 👀 the chemistry! They very clearly love each other…since the first time they met. & from what we’ve seen, him and his wife clearly don’t like each other and like you said he knows if he chooses Olivia he can kiss the presidency goodbye. Idk I’ve fought with my morals on this affair since the first time I watched this show lmao and I still end up loving them together idc lol 🤷🏽‍♀️ Also, this show moves very fast! So when you were on confused with the Billy thing all I could do was laugh cause this is definitely one of those shows where if you miss one little thing you’ll damn near miss a whole plot point 😂😂 but yes Billy basically set it all up, he sent the sextape to blackmail the president, he sent Amanda to sleep with him so that it would seem like it was her on the tape….but he was actually with Amanda. That’s who Amanda was talking to on the phone all secretive a few episodes ago. And Gideon (the reporter) is so damn stupid. Why would you confront him with all this, then turn your back…like sir you lowkey deserved that 🤣 great reaction per usual!

this is THE episode of season 1 imho. like you said the flashbacks make you understand how everyone got to the place they’re in now. Mellie staying in the marriage bc she’s a “political animal” and wants the White House so bad and sees it as her reward for leaving her law firm, having kids etc. Fitz struggled with not being available for Olivia, he truly views her as the love of his life, as the one he should have waited for. Olivia being conflicted af and trying to focus on her job but not being able to escape her love for Fitz either. Cyrus saying that back-water deals and the grimy political stuff is “his heroin, hallelujah and reason to breathe” - which really says it all and explains why he’s friends with Olivia - she is very savvy and he respects that. Seeing where Team OPA was two years ago was fun, especially Huck 😂 Billy being the puppet master, impregnating Amanda is mind-boggling. You’re right about the journalist - he’s an idiot for spelling it out to Billy how he has all the proof to bring him down, ofc Billy would retaliate 🙈 It’s fun watching you be conflicted and entertained. And while I am Olitz ride or die, I love that you understand that the whole situation they’re in is not black and white and Fitz couldn’t leave his wife without losing the presidency too - especially as a “family values” republican. It’s funny how times have changed bc idek if it would be a big scandal nowadays if a republican divorced his wife, they’d probably have a far bigger problem with Olivia being black. Anyways, fun ride here! 😂

Fitz asking Olivia to watch the sextape, moreso listen to it it's wild... I love episodes like these that dive deeper into the characters and show us why they are the way they are and how they got into the situations they currently are. and yes that's miss Brenda Song, she was on Nickelodeon (100 Deeds for Eddie McDown) and Disney (Wendy Wu, Phil of the Future, The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, The Suite Life On Deck...) Not Olivia acting as a therapist for Mellie and Grant while he's dreaming about Olivia in the same therapy session...listen I can't get into them being together because of the whole cheating situation but the actors do have insane chemistry ​😭​

Turn Up the Mike

Omg don’t even get me started on today’s political situation… you’re spot on lol but I loved this episode. Looking forward to learn more about the characters backgrounds more than anything

Turn Up the Mike

lol I’ll probably end up like you if these two continue to be in each others orbit for the next season(s). We’ll see. Glad I ain’t too nutty for not following everything immediately lol it all happened so damn fast, I missed one line of dialogue and boom 🤯🤣

I really dislike Fitz with his affair.... I will never be down for their "relationship"
