If you saw the promo for this Thursday's episode of Scandal, you know that someone is about to be in major trouble and will probably require the services of a certain professional fixer agency. Bring on the gladiators (and the murder-scene-cover-uppers!). The clip we have to show you gives us another peek at the next crisis to be averted on this addictive drama series.
Spoilers ahead!
The promo for "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot" showed us David waking up to a murder scene. Of course, he appears to be the guilty party in that bloodbath, but by the shock and terror on his face he doesn't seem to have any recollection of what happened. It looks like he was set up. But by who? And why? Those are questions that need to be put aside for a moment, because the cops are here.
It's probably safe to assume whoever set him up also called the police claiming to have heard a disturbance. Unless I'm completely misreading this situation and David actually killed a girl in his bed, but I'm going with the set-up theory for now. Though the cops seemed to buy his "It was the TV" story, their arrival puts an incident on the books, which could tie David to this crime or make him a pretty likely suspect, if anyone witnessed him with this girl. So we'll have to see how all of this is sorted out. In the meantime, I'm eager to see the gladiators back to work in handling this situation… assuming they're willing to help David out.
Scandal airs Thursdays at 10:00 p.m. ET on ABC.
