Holy crap! Best. Episode. Ever! Sh*t man, the writers knocked it out of the park....again. Blackmail! Torture! Murder! Talk about a triple play and a very memorable one at that. Where to start? I guess Quinn and Huck is a good place to start with. The whole torture scene, even though we really don't see anything, was still very uncomfortable to watch because of the implied / impending torture that was coming. I think it also had to do with Quinn's terrified screaming. I'm never gonna get the sound of that out of my head. The blackmail plan to keep Sally in line was great, especially when she called Cyrus' bluff and sent him on his way. I thought the little dance that Cyrus and James was very amusing, each not wanting to admit they knew what the other person was up to. As for Olivia Pope's mother, I kinda already knew that she was in fact a terrorist and that Eli was protecting Olivia from her. So, the reveal at the end wasn't a shock for me.

But what did shock me was when Sally called Cyrus on the phone and the camera pulled back to reveal her standing over her dead husband's body. Doesn't take a genius to figure out that she killed him because of the photos that Cyrus' handed to her as proof of his infidelity. Getting back to Quinn, I also wasn't all that surprised at the reveal that she was let go by Huck, so that she could keep her cover and get even closer to Eli to kill him. But will it be too late to stop her from doing just that now that Olivia knows the truth about both her parents? Very entertaining episode!!! More more more!!!
