TEXT: OLIVIA POPE AND ASSOCIATES Quinn: I don't know how you take it, cream or sugar, so I brought both. Amanda: I don't take it. Do they always do this? Quinn: Yeah. They do that. Amanda: Good. God. I was starting to think it was me or something. Quinn: It is you. They're talking about you, Amanda. Everyone's gonna be talking about you. Stephen: No. No way. Abby: Are you kidding? Stephen: What if she's lying? Abby: What if she's not? I vote yes. Olivia: We're not voting. Stephen: It's Monica all over again, except without the blue dress, without any kind of proof. Abby: Who needs proof? The girl said she slept with the president. Stephen: Liv worked at the white house. That alone makes it a giant conflict of interest. Abby: Oh, please call me when you grow a pair. Olivia: We're not voting. Huck: She seems scared. I'd vote yes if we were voting. Harrison: It's Sandra Harding. Her son didn't make it to court. Day one can you believe it? Who are we voting on? Olivia: We're not voting. She's ours. We're keeping her. It's done. Olivia: Sandra, we'll find him. Stephen: I'll go to court and help the defense stall. Olivia: You're gonna have to get creative. Harrison, you're with me. Huck, find Gideon Wallace at the "D.C. Sun" I want to talk to him today. Abby, take Amanda home, pack up her things, make sure - Abby: No one no one is following her and set her up at your apartment. Got it.
