Olivia Pope : Be careful. This dress is couture. I need it to stay perfect.
President Fitzgerald Grant : Then take it off.

Mellie Grant : I think about what I did every day. Those jurors... What I did, uh, those jurors... I-I will never forgive myself. And maybe you won't either. I guess we add it to the list of awful things we've done, things we spend our future together trying to repent for. But I can face it. Because we'll be together. I know, without a doubt, that you and I together, a team, is what's best - for us, for the country, for our beautiful children. And I'm so glad to see you too.
President Fitzgerald Grant : [pulls papers from his pocket] I'm divorcing you.
Mellie Grant : I'll never sign.
President Fitzgerald Grant : You will. You have so many qualities I despise, but I do admire your brilliance. So do the math, Mel. Fighting this, fighting me, will mean both of us deploy every weapon in our arsenals - every lie, every secret, every juror on that bus. Mutually assured destruction. We'll be ruined. Now, me, hey, I'm a war hero, governor, a two-term president. My bucket list is done. You? Your biggest accomplishment so far is waving and smiling. It's your first day pitching in the major leagues. You'll sign.
