Darby Stanchfield: Abby Whelan

Quotes 

• Abby Whelan : You make it hard for me to do my job. You undermine me here with Olivia Pope at every turn. You keep secrets from me. You make me feel small.

  Cyrus Beene : Red, there are things that happen here in this big white house with this particular president that you will never, ever know about. Some of those things, many of those things, will involve Olivia Pope. Several of those things will make it hard for you to do your job. But you are a patriot and you are a fighter, and so you will soldier on. As for feeling small, I don't do that to you. I suspect that jealousy does that to you. My advice on that is this. You are not Olivia, you will never be Olivia, and hating Olivia for your own shortcomings will not change that fact. Also, have you ever stopped to think what it must be like to actually be Olivia Pope? Doesn't seem like that much fun.
