‘Scandal’ Recap: Cyrus Beene’s No Good, Very Bad Week

Things got pretty bad for Cyrus Beene on this week’s episode of Scandal. Attorney General David Rosen announced he was expanding his investigation into the death of President-elect Vargas. When a reporter asked if they were investigating Cyrus, David just said that it included “anyone and everyone.”

As if being under investigation for assassinating the president-elect weren’t bad enough, Cyrus had to tell his husband, Michael, that he had cheated on him with Tom. In truth, Cyrus and Tom’s relationship was more than just sexual, and it became clear that Tom was behind the death of Vargas. When Cyrus went to Tom to end things, Tom almost ended Cyrus. Tom said, “There are fates worse than death,” and knocked Cyrus out with the butt of his gun.

Tom confessed that he killed Governor Vargas under direct orders from Cyrus. So the man who was just about to be in the White House was now headed to the big house, as the episode ended with Rosen showing up to arrest Cyrus at his house.

Scandal airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. on ABC. Watch clips and full episodes of Scandal for free on Yahoo View.
