Flashbacks revealed that Mellie (Bellamy Young) embarked on a secret fling with Marcus (Cornelius Smith Jr.) during the campaign and Olivia came between them by creating an opportunity for Marcus to become the Press Secretary for the White House.
Mellie discovered Olivia’s betrayal, realising how far she would go to get back into the White House.
Meanwhile Fitz (Tony Goldwyn) and Abby (Darby Stanchfield) worked together to frame a man for the assassination so that Cyrus could come into power peacefully.
