It was like an inelegant version of Alias with more colored people.
I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I kind of feel for Shonda, because didn't they cut the season short at the last minute? Due there only being so many shots they could take of KW through a window?

You are more sympathetic than I am, Jesse.

My mouth is trying to kill me. First I choked on a tiny piece of cheese and coughed until my throat was raw. Then I just bit the hell out of my lip.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I get irrationally angry at myself when I bite my lip accidentally. Like, body of mine, WHY are you hurting YOURSELF??? No one wins here! STAAAAHP.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Meep, Ginger! That's enough of that.
didn't they cut the season short at the last minute?
Sure felt rushed. Possibly if they had hit all those beats differently I would have enjoyed the twistiness more, I don't know.

Yeah, the finale was pretty disappointing, and I was down for whatever up until that point.

The problem is that instead of a smart and capable Olivia Pope, at least professionally, all season we had Hot Mess!Olivia.

Sure, that's true. But I think that actually was the plan, so. Eh.
I keep taking food out of the freezer and not eating it. I think I need popcorn now while I watch FNL.
