Yes.

You didn't kill Rashad for a treaty.

You didn't kill him

Washington is abuzz this morning
over unconfirmed reports

that Olivia Pope is out
as White House Chief of Staff.

There has been no official comment

from the Grant Administration,

which has only solidified the rumor

among Washington insiders, many
of whom are already speculating

about who Ms. Pope's
replacement might be

if the reports are, indeed, true.

Chief of Staff?

You should be so proud, baby.

Now, I know you've
been vetted before, Jake.

But, still, I have to ask...

Is there anything we need
to know about...

anything we could've missed previously?

Vanessa and I have an open marriage.

- Jake.
- I see.

A-A-And by "open marriage,"
you mean...

She's been sleeping with someone else.

Is. Is sleeping with someone else.

Wow. So we're just gonna
put it all out there.

We have a deal. It works.

It shouldn't be any concern.

We're careful. Exceedingly so.

But in the interest of transparency,

I think it's something you should know.

Shouldn't be a big deal.

Not like you asked Russian hookers

As long as she held all
the cards, our hands were tied.

But there's a window now.
We have a chance.

We can bring a case against
her. Put her away for good.

Without the White House in
her corner, we have a real shot.

- Because she no longer runs the Oval.
- Yes.

- And you know that because?
- What?

How do you know
she no longer runs the Oval?

We saw it.

You were just sitting next to me.
We both saw it on the news.

And who makes the news?

Who bends the media to her will?

Who creates the stories
that are witnessed

and reported and fed to the public?

Who decides what reality is?

"We solve problems, manage crises,
save reputations," damn it.

Yeah, if the giant is down,
it's not because she's dead.

The giant is licking its wounds,
but only for a moment.

She will rise again.

That's all the more reason
why we act now.

Before she rallies
and our window closes.

No. No, I don't think so.

There has been no word

she will be announcing

her rumored resignation.

I was filled with immense pride

Unfortunately, my time
working for this administration

has come to an end.

Effective today, I am hereby
resigning as Chief of Staff

to President Mellie Grant.

This is not a decision
I came to lightly.

Working in the White House

came with its challenges, certainly,

but it also came
with extraordinary rewards.

Reform at the Justice Department.

Free college. Nuclear
disarmament in the Middle East.

These things seemed like crazy dreams

when the administration began,

and today, they are realities.

As proud as I am of
all we accomplished together,

it's now time for me
to move on to other pursuits.

To find some new crazy dreams.

I guess we're not the only ones
who need new jobs.
