"Scandal" is back with season three on ABC, and now fans are being given new inside scoop on the big premiere reveal and what's coming up next on the ABC series. On Friday, Oct. 4, Spoiler TV shared the first preview for the next episode, "Scandal" episode 3.02 titled "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner." TV Guide and TV Line also shared new spoilers for the series. Check out the previously released photos for the next episode here.
The affair leak was revealed at the end of the season three premiere, and it was Fitz himself who leaked Olivia's name to the press. He was ready to reveal Olivia to the world during season two, and he made his own plan to do that without anyone's help. Mellie figured him out in the end. Goldwyn said the following about the big reveal to TV Guide:
When we read the script, I was like, 'What?!' I did not suspect that at all. The big thing that upset me at the end of Season 2 was the Mellie thing. I was like 'What? Why? Where am I coming from with that?' I couldn't understand it. Then there was a great fight between Mellie and me in the premiere. I manipulated her, which is brilliant.
Shonda Rhimes, the woman behind the series, did tell TV Line that the writers 'knew who the leak was before we had the leak happen.' However, Fitz's plan was ruined by Cyrus and Olivia's team. On the next episode, fans will get a look at Olivia's relationship with her father. However, Kerry Washington revealed that the flashbacks will be 'confusing' for fans as well. The dynamic between father and daughter will be what confuses them.
As for Fitz and Olivia, they will have new problems to deal with. The Remington bombshell at the end of the season premiere will relate back to Olivia in some way. Scott Foley teased that it is 'the darkest thing about Olivia's past.' Fans thought her helping rig the election was bad. Apparently, they have not seen anything yet.
"Scandal" will continue to air on Thursday nights on ABC.
