Scandal 4x04
Fitz: I have dealt with drunk Mellie, bad hygiene Mellie... No, wait. I got it... Smelly Mellie. I have dealt with drunk Mellie and smelly Mellie and "screw everything to hell" Mellie and crybaby Mellie and "eat everything that is not nailed down" Mellie. And I have not complained. But I will not put up with whatever righteous history-rewriting Mellie you have going on right here, right now. This is not your family. You are not the mother, not since Jerry died. Since Jerry died, you have abdicated your role. You have mothered no one. You hold nothing together. You pick up no pieces. You know how I know this? Because baby Teddy thinks his mother is nanny Jen and Karen spent last night in a threesome with two guys doing a move on her they like to call "Eiffel towering"! You know how I know that? I saw the sex tape they made! So you should be damn glad she called Olivia, because Olivia Pope is fixing this mess, this mess that you made. This mess that we made. Look, I know that I share some guilt in all of this. But you want to know the difference between you and me? All day, every day, I am running a country. I am grieving for the loss of my son, but I am also running a country. All day, every day, you are sitting around in booties and a dirty robe eating chips and getting drunk at 11:00 A.M.!
Mellie: A sex tape?
Fitz: Yeah.
Mellie: She takes after her daddy, then, doesn't she?
