AceShowbiz -

Olivia Pope is still kidnapped on "Scandal". The mastermind behind Olivia's disappearance has been revealed, but that doesn't make it easier for Fitz and Jake to find her. Instead, the bad guy uses the situation to control the president, forcing him [SPOILER ALERT!] to declare war on West Angola in the latest episode.

In a preview for the next episode, Olivia is auctioned off and Olivia's mom Maya Lewis (Khandi Alexander) returns. The episode titled "Gladiators Don't Run" will air Thursday, February 12 at 9 P.M. on ABC.

According to the official synopsis, "Olivia remains one-step ahead of her captures, but she won't be able to keep it up for long. Jake, Huck and Quinn turn to an old friend for help and Fitz is pushed to the limit forcing Cyrus to take matters into his own hands."

Editors' Pick

Things also get intense on "How to Get Away with Murder" which airs after "Scandal". In the new episode, a shocking discovery in Sam's case changes everything for Annalise and the students after his body is found. Annalise apparently is accused of killing her own husband.
