"The interview that Jerry tried to sabotage?" Olivia asked.

"Yeah, that one. Thank you for catching him before that happened, by the way. I see that ending very badly," Fitz smiled.

"It was Huck's find. I never had a clue about that. The interview went perfect though."

Fitz thought back to the interview and remembered the way it went. "The only thing missing was you beside me instead of Mellie. Karen and Jerry did great. Even Teddy sat still long enough for that."

"I agree, it was very well handled."

"Yes, but I was thinking a bit more of before the interview."

"About the kids?"

"No… Mellie. She was with Andrew and I took it out on you. For Karen to see her and Andrew having… that… is something I never wanted for her to see with anyone. She shouldn't have been subjected to that and I talked to Mellie about that. I guess she and Karen worked it out though. A few names had been thrown around but it worked out. But I took it out on you and I shouldn't have. None of that was your fault."

Olivia crossed her arms across her chest and sat back in the chair. "You yelled at me and told me that you were talking to your wife."

"I'm sorry. I wanted to apologize to you then, I tried to and you told me you were working. Mellie and I were discussing how our marriage was ruined. I didn't mean to yell at you. I was irritated with Mellie and wanted her to explain herself. She kept saying she lost something in herself in our marriage but wouldn't explain. I wanted to know."

"You found out though."

"Yeah I did, but you, my wonderful Livie, are disgusting though. You're my fluffer? What the hell is that about?"

"You wanted me to take care of the issue with your wife because she's sleeping with another man."

"You were being jealous."

"What the hell did you want me to be? I'm supposed to take care of Mellie sleeping with Andrew and you were the doing the same with me. That's hypocritical."

"You sent Gabby to me instead of you because you didn't want to deal with me."

"Her name is Abby! I sent her because you weren't listening to me."

"I was, but you weren't listening to what I wanted you to do."

"You are the one who wanted Andrew on the ticket, it's your fault he was on it."

"Alright, you shut down B613 when they almost had your mother in their custody."

"How was I supposed to know that they had her?"

"Maybe trust me and let me handle it. You don't have to handle everything yourself. You can count on me to do something."

Olivia attempted to silence a laugh. "You put Jake in charge because he was supposed to protect me and the nation. Instead, he can waltz right into my office and choke me."

"Woah, excuse me, he did what?"

"Yeah, you didn't get the whole story. You heard that we slept together the night before so I could get access to his phone. He threw that in your face, sorry about that. Huck shut down B613 and Jake comes running into my office, throws me against a wall choking me, telling me I killed you, and holds a gun to Huck. That seems about right."

Fitz ran his hands threw his hair, ready to break something again. "Why didn't you tell me he did that?"

"You were too pissed to hear a word I said after you heard we slept together. I can't get through to you when you hear shit like that and get in that mood."

"You should have told me."

"Whatever, Fitz. Nothing you can do about it now. What else?"

"The bomb. It was at the Senator's funeral."

"I know, I watched the funeral entrances from the hospital. Jake told Cyrus that the bomb was there and he kept you at the White House. Thankfully, he stalled."

"Because Sally was there. He wanted it to blow with Sally in the church. Instead it made her look like the hero, helping people and the way she looked."

"I did my best to get you those slots. I had a lot of threats going around to news channels. It is NOT my fault that those assholes don't realize that you are the President and she is not."

"I'm not blaming you. It's Cyrus's fault. He should have told me and I could have gotten everyone out of there."

"You would have done your best, I know. And because of that I wouldn't let you leave the White House during a campaign."

"And I didn't listen," Fitz laughed.

Liv stared seriously at him, waiting for him to stop laughing. "You think it's funny that you could have been blown up? That you could have died for the second time? My mother was after you and I had no way to find her or stop her. But it's hilarious that you could have died."

Fitz finally stopped laughing, nearly bent over on the floor. "That's not the funny thing, Livie. I had to have permission from my girlfriend to leave the White House where I'm President. I had to sneak out of there without you knowing. The funniest part is that I actually got away without you noticing."

"Oh that's so damn funny, Fitz. I had to fly to Ohio to save your ass. She doesn't like you but lucky for both of us she loved me. That she didn't want to physically hurt me. That's the only thing that saved you from being blown up."

"But I didn't get blown up, I'm still alive, and here with you. I shouldn't have snuck out of the White House though. I should have told you that I was leaving but I knew you never would have let me out of there."

"And for a good reason."

"True, now Jerry."
