List of Scandal episodes

The fourth season of the American television drama series Scandal began airing on September 25, 2014, in the United States on ABC and consists of 22 episodes. The season was produced by ABC Studios, in association with ShondaLand Production Company and The Mark Gordon Company; the showrunner being Shonda Rhimes. On May 7, 2015, ABC announced that Scandal was renewed for a fifth season.[1]

The season continues the story of Olivia Pope's crisis management firm, Olivia Pope & Associates, and its staff, as well as staff at the White House in Washington D.C. Season four had nine series regulars, all returning from the previous season, out of which eight are part of the original cast of ten regulars from the first season. The season aired at Thursday 9:00 pm, a new timeslot from the three previous seasons which aired an hour later on the same night. The new timeslot was made to make room for ShondaLand Production Company's new TV series, How to Get Away with Murder.

Overview

The season focuses on Olivia's return to Washington, D.C., after spending two months relocated on an island off the coast of Zanzibar with Jake, and how her absence has affected the people around her.

The first half of the season focuses on Jake's arrest for the death of Jerry Grant after Rowan forces Tom to name Jake as the operator. Rowan continues to try to make everyone believe Jake is guilty, which inspires Olivia to find out the truth for herself. After forcing Tom to reveal Rowan as his operator, Fitz, Jake, and Olivia make a plan to arrest Rowan. Unfortunately, the plan fails, causing Rowan to shut down B613 and start eliminating B613 agents. Olivia tries to kill Rowan when she confronts him, but he manages to flee.

The season also focuses on how Olivia Pope & Associates has been closed, which has led Abby, Huck, and Quinn to seek alternative employment.

Abby is now the White House Press Secretary, and is struggling with gaining the respect of Cyrus and Fitz, because they choose to demean her by calling her "Red" instead of Abby. Later in the season, Abby finds herself stressed even more by the presence of her abusive ex-husband, who has been nominated for Virginia State Senator, and she enlists Leo Bergen to help ruin his campaign. Huck is working at an electronic shop and is refusing to come back to the firm, but he eventually does. In the past two months, he has been watching his estranged family, but he has not been allowed by his former wife Kim to see his son, Javi. However, much to Kim's dismay, Huck and Javi begin to form a friendship by playing video games together.

Quinn has stayed in contact with both Abby and Huck, in addition to trying to find Olivia. During the first part of the season, Quinn works on a case for Olivia's friend, Catherine, from law school, in which Catherine's daughter ends up murdered and Catherine's grief-stricken husband commits suicide. The case takes an unexpected twist when Quinn discovers that the killer of Catherine's daughter, Kobiak, has been working with both the head of the RNC, Elizabeth North, and Vice President Andrew Nichols. Their plan is revealed as an attempt to start a war in West Angola. Elizabeth North and Andrew Nichols then engineer the kidnapping of Olivia, anticipating that Fitz will do anything to save her. Predicting correctly, Nichols then successfully convinces Fitz to give the okay to go to war with West Angola.

Mellie struggles with the death of her son, Jerry. She finally comes to terms with her loss after finding out that Jerry was murdered due to being deliberately exposed to bacterial meningitis rather than contracting the disease naturally, and she chooses to form an alliance with Elizabeth North. Later, after having an affair with him, Mellie discovers the true nature of Nichols, who threatens to tell the press about their affair.

Cyrus starts sleeping with Michael, a male prostitute, who is in the pay of Elizabeth. After finding out that Michael has been leaking information from Cyrus to Elizabeth, Cyrus calls Olivia for help. When pictures of Cyrus and Michael are leaked, the couple come up with a plan to get married as a way of handling the crisis.

While Olivia is being held captive, the team that Nichols hired has an internal issue leading to their ringleader getting killed by Gus, one of his employees. Gus then opens a black-market auction for Olivia, and terrorists as well as foreign nationals start to bid for her. Olivia manipulates the auction to gain the upper hand over the kidnappers, but is unable to stop the auction and is sold to Russia. Stephen Finch, a former Pope & Associates "gladiator" gone for three seasons, returns to rescue Olivia in Russia, where she is safely brought back to America. Shortly after, Nichols suffers a massive stroke, believed to be caused by a collaborative effort between Mellie and Elizabeth. Olivia is visited by Fitz, but reveals her disgust in his decision to go to war to bring her back and drives him away.

Despite the team's concerns regarding her state, Olivia chose to return to her work, beginning with a case of an African-American boy who was shot by a white police officer. After further investigation, the team finds out that the white police officer had set the entire thing up to look like he shot the boy out of self-defense; he was subsequently arrested.

Meanwhile, Fitz begins looking for a new Vice President. He initially decided to have Mellie take the place, but Cyrus spoke against it. Mellie later pushes Virginia senator Susan Ross to be nominated for the position. Fitz then hires Leo Bergen to help Susan, but Leo consistently pressures Susan, who decides to quit. However, after several considerations, Susan is sworn as Vice President.

After receiving files from Huck's estranged wife, David talks to Jake and Huck about what he should do with the files. Huck tries to talk to his wife Kim about the files, but she manages to convince Huck to testify. After Huck's testimony, David begins investigating the case. Jake tries his best to stop David, only for David to continue pursuing the investigation, getting help from other B613 agents. David ultimately finds out that his assistant is a B613 agent who killed the other agents as Jake manages to shoot her.

OPA continues to handle more cases, such as those of Susanne Thomas' and Marcus Walker's. Susanne threatens to reveal secrets about D.C.'s top politicians on her new book; while the team was able to eventually convince her no to, Huck suddenly kills her. On the other hand, Marcus Walker is accused of murder of the Mayor's wife, with whom he was having affair. The team eventually discovers that Mayor was actually responsible for the murder and framed Marcus for it. The team convinces the Mayor to step down from his position, but Marcus decides to reveal the truth to the media.

As Susan's seat in the Senate is vacated, Mellie decides to run for senator and take her place. She enlists Elizabeth to help her in the campaign. Mellie faces problems in her campaign; her half-sister who visits the White House and threatens to reveal her past, but Fitz manages to persuade her not to. Then, former Vice President Sally Langston brings up her concerns about Mellie, but Olivia manages to shut her down. She is also struggling with initially low ratings in Virginia, and Mellie decides to enlist Fitz to help her. Fitz decides to seek advice from Olivia (who also advised him to pick Susan as the new VP). Later in the season, Fitz begins pushing a bill (later known as the Brandon Bill) following the recent shooting near the White House, but is struggling to make it to Congress. He tries to have the bill pushed as soon as possible, but Susan wants to read the entire bill first before giving her vote. With advice from Susan, Fitz eventually decides to improve the bill.

Olivia meets a man named Russell at a bar, and has a one-night stand with him. Meanwhile, Rowan begins threatening Olivia when she and the rest of OPA along with David begin planning to shut down B613. Russell was later revealed as a B613 agent hired by Rowan to get closer to her, and he attempts to kill Jake when Olivia and the rest of the team continues to defy Rowan. Olivia later realizes this and has Russell tortured in the hands of Huck and Quinn, while helping David with the investigation of B613.

Susan continues to defy the Grant administration, helping out a female officer who appears to have been raped. She enlists OPA to help, and further investigation led to the revelation that one of the higher officers was responsible for the act. After leaking the video footage, the officer was forced to confess the truth to the media. Mellie then uses the opportunity to raise her ratings, by giving a speech of how the military mishandled the case and showing sympathy for the female officer, instead of talking about her son.

Huck and Quinn managed to torture Russell into revealing information about a secret operation named Foxtail, but he escapes before they found out more information. It was later revealed that the lawyer that the team enlisted for the case hearing was a B613 agent, and he later helped Russell escape, but was later killed by Rowan. Operation Foxtail was later revealed to be centered on Mellie, as Rowan generously offers to finance her campaign. The operation was Rowan's escape plan for the case against B613.

In the season finale, members of a grand jury gathered by David for the B613 case were killed after the initial hearing. OPA and David begin investing the scene, and realized that Rowan was responsible. He also blackmailed Mellie into giving the names of the members, causing her to feel responsible. Cyrus later finds out the truth, but decides not to tell Fitz. After seeking advice from Maya, Olivia and Jake decides to reveal B613 to the CIA, but it backfires. They later came up with a plan to frame Rowan for embezzlement of the funds at the museum he is working at, having him imprisoned. Later, Fitz finds out the truth about what Mellie and Cyrus had done; he orders them to leave the White House. Elizabeth then takes Cyrus' place as the chief of staff. In the last scene, he reunites with Olivia.

Cast

Production

Scandal was renewed for a fourth season by ABC on May 9, 2014.[2] On May 13, 2014, ABC announced their new schedule, as well as a new time slot for Scandal. The show remained on Thursday night, but it was moved to 9:00 PM E.T. to make room for ShondaLand Production Company's new TV series, How to Get Away with Murder.[3] In August, 2014, ABC programmed its entire Thursday primetime lineup with ShondaLand dramas Grey's Anatomy, Scandal and How To Get Away With Murder, then branded the night as "Thank God It's Thursday" (or "TGIT").[4] This echoes ABC's former TGIF branding of its Friday night family sitcoms and even NBC's Must See TV promotion of formidable Thursday night television hits in the 1990s.[5]

Production started at the beginning of July, as Rhimes tweeted that the writers were hard at work collaborating ideas and mapping out the fourth season.[6][7] Scouting for the season began a few days later.[8] The table read for the first episode was on July 24, 2014,[9] and Rhimes revealed the title of the premiere the same day.[10][11] Filming for the fourth season began on July 28, 2014,[12] and ended on April 28, 2015.[13]

Darby Stanchfield's character was highlighted in the 4th season.

In an interview with showrunner Shonda Rhimes, she revealed that the fourth season would highlight Darby Stanchfield's character, Abby Whelan. She said "Season 4 is Abby's season. That was by design. A lot of what we know about Abby happens this season."[14] Rhimes also confirmed the speculation about the fate of the character Harrison Wright, who she confirmed was killed.[14] She said that all the people at OPA will cope in different ways to Harrison's death, Olivia the hardest. Rhimes said "It will be very devastating for Abby in a surprising way. You'll see how she's coping with it in a very different way than you would expect."[15] Olivia will deal with her betrayal to everyone she left behind, when she hears about the fate of Harrison. The betrayals changed everyone permanently, and Olivia will have to deal with it.[15]

Shonda Rhimes stated that the fourth season will focus more on the core characters, as opposed to the third season where more characters were introduced. Rhimes explained why: "Kerry Washington couldn't work 14 hours a day, so we had to tell our story in a different way, and that necessitated other people both picking up the slack in beautiful ways".[15]

The remaining fall schedule for ABC was announced on October 30, 2014, where it was announced that Scandal would air nine episodes in the fall with the fall finale to air on November 20, 2014, just like the rest of ABC's primetime lineup "TGIT" Grey's Anatomy and How To Get Away with Murder.[16] The remaining 13 episodes aired after the winter break, beginning on January 29, 2015,[17] and ending with the season finale on May 14, 2015.[18] The show was renewed by ABC for a fifth season, on May 7, 2015.[1]

Reception

Broadcast

The season premiere returned with universal acclaim from critics, with many commenting the accomplishment the premiere did to rebound the series after the third season, which many called "messy".[65][66] The fourth season premiere also scored a series high in Total Viewers with 11.96 millions and in Adults 18-49 with a 3.8/11.[43] On Rotten Tomatoes the fourth season got a rating of 100% fresh based on 6 reviews.[67] The series was its ratings increase from week to week compared to its broadcasting last year.[68][69][70] The mid-season premiere "Run" was equaled the series's 2nd-highest-ever rating in adults 18-49.[71] The fourth season saw a decrease in the 18-49 key demographic by 5.4 percent to a 2.9, but an increase in total viewers by .86 percent with an average of 9.19 million viewers.[72]

Michael Brown reference

The series received both praise and criticism for the episode "The Lawn Chair" as it referred to the events in Ferguson, where a black 18-year-old, Michael Brown was fatally shot by Darren Wilson, 28, a white Ferguson policeman. Many praised showrunner Shonda Rhimes for a poignant episode and dialogue that mirrored much of the conversation around the shooting deaths of unarmed black men, whereas many meant it was too soon to air such an episode as it was too emotional and criticized the episode for being unrealistic.[73][74]

Joshua Alston from The A.V. Club commented that the episode "came across as condescending wish fulfillment", and criticized the episode for not being emotionally true.[75] Aisha Harris from Slate criticized the episode for being too easily to define as she said "Most cases of this nature are not so easily defined—racism and prejudice are often much more covert than that. If only Scandal had been a bit braver in not making Brandon a saint and Newton such an obvious bad guy, it might have made for the realest episode yet."[76] Sophie Gilbert of The Atlantic praised the episode calling it "a tightly controlled and very deliberate exploration of race, identity, bigotry, and conscience."[77] Rhimes explained on Twitter why the episode was more fictive than real as she said "In the end, we went with showing what fulfilling the dream SHOULD mean. The idea of possibility. And the despair we feel now."[78] Lauren Hoffman of Cosmopolitan also criticized the unrealistic element in the episode as she said:

<templatestyles src="Template:Blockquote/styles.css" />

Are there people who will watch the white cop's racist tirade and, because it went unquestioned by any of Scandal's characters, determine that his actions were partially warranted? Will some people assume that the bad cops always go to jail, and that justice is always served? Will people turn off the TV and pretend everything's OK?[79]

Director Ava DuVernay weighed in on the episode as she commented: "An episode like this isn't easy. Isn't easy to write. Isn't easy to direct. Isn't easy to get on air. I appreciate the effort."[80] Judy Smith, the inspiration for Scandal also commented on the episode, saying "Just as a parent protects his child, we all must protect each other."[81]
