Scandal is back! After many weeks since the Winter finale, Olivia Pope and Associates have a lot on their hands. President Grant is running again for reelection, but his reputation is damaged. He has already admitted to cheating on his wife, First Lady Mellie Grant and that is just one of their problems.

The episode started off with Mellie saying, "She's running."

Vice President, Sally Langston is running against Fitz and she refuses to resign as VP. She plans on running against the president on a third ticket. Her aim is to get the far religious right votes.

Olivia's sometimes boyfriend, Jake is now the head of B613, replacing Olivia's father, aka Papa Pope. Papa Pope is angry and he wants to end Fitz and he will stop at nothing.

Also, Cyrus is trying to dig up some dirt on Sally Langston but he cannot reveal to the world about Sally Langston murdering her husband because, he was a part of the cleanup crew.

As usual, there was a bunch of epic quotes and dialogues from this episode so here is the Top 10 from, "Ride, Sally Ride."
