3 Ice Cubes

Kerry Washington has given birth...two weeks ago to a baby girl. Her name? Isabelle! Congrats to the new parents!!! We cannot wait to see what this little beauty is going to look like! Scrumptious I would say!

Get your Gladiators on this one Olivia Pope because your portrayer Kerry Washington is not making pregnancy look so glam. We have Olivia Wilde and Kristin Cavallari who stunned at the Oscars with their baby bumps...then we have Washington, who looked like she was wearing a drape. Great glow though!

All we can say is: THANK YOU! *From top left: Michelle Obama, Muhammed Ali, Hattie McDaniel, Oprah Winfrey, Rosa Parks, Denzel Washington, Kerry Washington, Magic Johnson and Whoopi Goldberg. 

Kerry Washington. It is scandalous how bad she looked at the 2014 Screen Actors Guild Awards. She's preggers and that's great; she picked a nice ensemble for the Golden Globes but this is just all over the place wrong. There are really no words to define it but the First Lady definitely looks better at 50 than this Gladiator!

In a not-so-happy New Year announcement, ABC has decided to change how recent episodes of Scandal - and several other shows - will be available. Basically, in order to watch episodes after they air (on ABC's website or through their app) you will need to log in through your cable provider. If, however, your cable provider happens to be DISH , Time-Warner or DirectTV among others, then you will be out in the cold. You're still in the clear if you have Hulu Plus or don't mind shelling out for the episode on iTunes or Amazon . Everyone else will have to wait eight days for the show to be free on ABC's website. For a full breakdown of the new viewing rules click here . Either way, make sure to join us for your recap when Scandal returns on February 27th!

We ended last week's episode of "Scandal" with the Veep standing by the body of her dead husband, so of course we start off this episode a few minutes prior with Sally yelling at Daniel about what he did (sleep with Cyrus's husband). When Daniel informs Sally that he's leaving her, she stabs him and calls Cyrus, bringing us back to where we ended last week.

Picking up where it left off, Scandal - Season 3, episode 8 opens with Eli in a cell with Olivia's mother. Eli let's her know that Olivia has been asking questions about her and as a result she is going to be shipped away to a hidden cell somewhere, in the middle of the night.

This episode of "Scandal" opens with Mellie doing a TV appearance in the East Wing to show what goes on in the First Lady's office life. Cyrus walks into the filming and Mellie asks if they can cut the shooting. She wants to know why she needs to rehab her image when she isn't the one who had an affair (probably a good question).

Before getting back into the nitty-gritty of the most recent episode of Scandal , I thought it would be helpful to present ABC 's official Fixer-Flowchart (or what to do if you're Olivia Pope ).

The episode of "Scandal" opens with a flashback of olivia as a child as her mother walks out the door then cuts right to the present where Olivia is seemingly catatonic at her desk while Huck, et. al. are preventing people from entering her office. Olivia hops up to share that she is heading to the whitehouse to find out who is responsible for shooting down a plane that her mother was on.
