Olivia Compromises Integrity to Burn Former Flame on ‘Scandal’

The gloves came off on Scandal when Olivia’s former flame Edison Davis decided to throw his hat into the presidential ring. While the news of Edison’s decision was somewhat a cause for concern, Olivia swore to him that she would not betray his confidence during the election. Olivia and Edison were in a pretty serious relationship a while back, but unfortunately he was also in a serious relationship with painkillers that required Olivia to send him to rehab.

With Edison running for the Democratic nomination and Olivia’s candidate, Mellie, running for the Republican nomination, it gave the two some time to focus on interparty adversaries. The bad news for Edison, however, is that his competition offered to trade dirt on him in exchange for dirt on Mellie’s competition.

After careful consideration and a lot of mistakes, Olivia decided to spill Edison’s secrets to the other candidate. While we are not sure what dirt she got on her competition, it is safe to say next week’s episode is going to be a doozy.

Scandal airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. on ABC.
