But then, what was up with the "I feel guilty about Kinky Sue. Do you, Huck who I know is a sociopath at best, ever have guilt?"

No walking in the sun. No jam in Vermont. Just "do we have enough condoms?" I actually liked Sue and I'm not a Lena Dunham fan. For all her so-called kinkiness she was the most normal person we've seen on this show in a long time. Watching how Shonda uses her shows to explore/advance her political and sociological agenda is fascinating to me.

That the show might have a character take one of these violent actions, and then genuinely follow through on its implications, is highly unlikely. I can at least see an argument for why Jake felt he had to kill James and the others -- they were threatening B613/President Grant's election theft/whatever with imminent public exposure, and if that happens one can reasonably believe the republic will fall, cats and dogs will be living together, mass hysteria. Besides, if it wasn't Jake, it would have been someone else from B613. Huck killed Sue on the theory that one day she MIGHT talk and if she does talk, she would be a threat to Rosen's career, and if she's a threat to Rosen's career, then Rosen couldn't offer him immunity and if Rosen couldn't offer him immunity, he couldn't have one big happy family. Even putting aside how selfish that motive for killing was, it just wasn't legitimately logical. There's no guarantee that Sue would talk, or that she would talk about Rosen. Even if she were, there's nothing to say that it would be any time in the near future. Rosen would have plenty of time to get him an immunity deal before she were to talk. And even if he did not, there's always his replacement, or really the entirety of the Department of Justice, who could hammer out an immunity deal. And Huck should know better than most, it's not like Command is going to say, "Man, Huck's blowing the whistle on us so he can reunite with his family. If only we could employ the legion of assassins, torturers, bribers and so forth to put a stop to this. But he's got an immunity deal with the prosecutor, so I guess he and his family is untouchable." Seems far better for him to have just threatened her and been like "I'm a scary man. If you breathe another word about all these men, it'll be your last." On another front: I hate to sound/be sexist and shallow, but we're to believe that these 16 power players in D.C., where there's an army of young and hot women, slept with Sue because she was kinky and on a pro-kink website? Also, hadn't Sue already sent the proposal if not the entire manuscript to publishers? I don't see how anyone could be confident that the only copies of it have been obtained. And wouldn't "Author of prospective sexy memoir about sexy times with power players found murdered" still have the same effect of giving publicity and credence to her account? Seems like a horrible idea to bring all 16 people Sue slept with in a room together rather than approach them anonymously. Also, doesn't Huck have more than 2 billion and counting from redirecting the B613 slush fund? Sue could have gotten paid off from just that. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/23830-s04e16-its-good-to-be-kink/#findComment-946867

The harassment came because her supervisor had heard about the sex and felt entitled to "get a piece." She did just enjoy freaky sex. (Although I loved seeing her reaction to Charlie.)

Racj82 March 20, 2015 Share March 20, 2015 I don't know. Scandal is in this weird place. People got tired of B316 overwhelming the show and it has been slightly phased out. Olitz drama was on overload and for now they've been put on the backburner. More cases of the week were wanted and it's what we've been getting. People complain about the show being too over the top but that's how the show got popular in the first place. I feel like Scandal is another show that can't win right now. To stay on this episode, I enjoyed it. The show is called Scandal and they gave one. It may been waters we've been in before but Scandal's are probably the biggest most honest scandal in politics. I enjoyed Olivia getting some. I hate to make things racial but I'm glad it was a black man this time.Between this show and Empire, we have two successful shows with black leads but no real black love to engaged in (Lucious/Cookie does NOT cut it).

And one could argue that Quinn had it coming because she was betraying Olivia and associates. "Innocent" may not be the right word both morally and legally. But the point is, at the point that Huck killed Sue or anything, she did not pose a direct threat to anyone and to the extent that she might pose a future threat, there were less extreme measures that could be taken than slashing her throat. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/23830-s04e16-its-good-to-be-kink/#findComment-947654
ChicksDigScars March 20, 2015 Share March 20, 2015 Also: "...you and Ruth Bader Ginsburg. You're all we've got!" My reaction? To yell, "SERIOUSLY?!" at the TV when she said it. Right, Shonda. Because a woman who fucks a married man and criminally rigs a national election to get her slam piece into higher office, is the heroine of us all. Huck has passed his expiration date. While part of me was thinking that FINALLY someone has done what I wish HBO would do, the other part of me was thinking, "GROSS. Why do we have to see that?" 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/23830-s04e16-its-good-to-be-kink/#findComment-947763

Skyler Durden March 20, 2015 Share March 20, 2015 (edited) I like how Huck signed the immunity agreement and then walked out of the room, still clutching it. That's not how paperwork works, honey.

When I heard that RBG and Liv crap I almost punched my innocent TV!!!! The person who wrote that line should be fired, fired, fired!!!! But I would watch the hell out of Mellie/Lizzie/Abby working together to put Mellie in office. I wouldn't miss that! 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/23830-s04e16-its-good-to-be-kink/#findComment-947874
tennisgurl March 20, 2015 Share March 20, 2015 Huck used to be my favorite character, way back in the day, when he was more of a reformed psycho killer, not a...still psycho killer. Now its just creepy. Granted, this show has always liked having characters that don't have the greatest morals, or do really questionable things, and that's ok. I liked that. But Huck just needs to be stopped. Its not even morally ambiguous anymore, its just creepy. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/23830-s04e16-its-good-to-be-kink/#findComment-948024
Guest March 20, 2015 Share March 20, 2015 The stunt casting of Lena Dunham pulled me out of the show. "Hey, let's cast someone who wrote a book about how she sexually abused her younger sister as an author of a kinky sex tell-all book!" Real slick there, Shonda. Huck is disgusting. I've never liked him since the episode where he first tortured someone (Charlie). But now he just keeps getting worse and worse. Javi deserves so much better.

Chicago Redshirt March 20, 2015 Share March 20, 2015 It also occurs to me to question: when David started saying, "I'm not going to be able to get you out of a parking ticket when this book comes out," what's that about? At the second he says that, he's the goddamned Attorney General of the goddamned United States! He can have a minion draw up an immunity agreement within an hour or two (even assuming they don't have stock immunity agreements, which they must) and have it signed that day. There's no way that the rumors of the book, and the deciphering of the people in it are all going to take place before the immunity agreement would be signed. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/23830-s04e16-its-good-to-be-kink/#findComment-948213
Guest March 20, 2015 Share March 20, 2015 Yes, David was acting like if the book came out, anything he did would be retroactively struck down. It doesn't work that way, David. You're the attorney general - you should know this! Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/23830-s04e16-its-good-to-be-kink/#findComment-948314
Chicago Redshirt March 20, 2015 Share March 20, 2015 "Your Honor, I know that witness Diego Munoz has signed an immunity agreement. However, the attorney general who authored it is a big ol' freak, according to this soon-to-be released memoir. Therefore it is invalid." 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/23830-s04e16-its-good-to-be-kink/#findComment-948355
damalanop March 20, 2015 Share March 20, 2015 Surprisingly, I didn't hate this episode. Finally the show seemed to come back around to the original concept....fixing messy situations. So I was all in until...yeah...good old Huck did his usual. While I used to love Huck, I can't stand to see him or listen to him now. I'm hoping that this latest killing leads to him being put down. I just can't muster any good will toward him anymore. And someone upthread said this, but why would is (ex)wife want "Huck" around her and her child. Huck is not and will never be Diego, the man she knew and loved. I also liked Olivia going out and trying to move past the kidnapping. Her choice for a casual fling wasn't bad either! She's keeping that wine shop in business single-handedly. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/23830-s04e16-its-good-to-be-kink/#findComment-948507
