And just like that, it was on! Scandal was back. If you missed it or want to watch it again, check it out below.

Scandal paralyzed a girl for 18 minutes because it was so damn good!
18 minutes later and I have not moved from my spot on the couch because I’m still not over #Scandal.

There are a small number of white people who tweet about Scandal. A very small number.
Finding a white person tweeting about #scandal on my timeline is like finding Waldo.
