What Is Abby’s Real Motives For Having Jennifer Killed In ‘Scandal’ Season 6, Episode 8?
“Scandal” Season 6, episode 8 will be an Abby Whelan (Darby Stanchfield)-centric episode and will be told from the character’s perspective.
In the previous episode, it was revealed that Abby instructed Meg (Phoebe Neidhardt) to kill Jennifer (Chelsea Kurtz) and Huck (Guillermo Diaz). Meg did as she was told, and she shot Jennifer in the chest and the forehead guaranteeing her demise. However, Meg shot Huck on the right side of his chest so it is possible that he is still alive.
Meg and Huck seemingly fell in love in the previous episodes, so it is highly likely that the former shot the latter for Abby. However, Meg could also not kill Huck and just lie about doing it to Abby. But what remains unclear is Abby’s reason for wanting both characters dead.
In the previous episodes, Abby has been working with Governor Frankie Vargas (Ricardo Chavira) and Cyrus Beene (Jeff Perry) while the two campaigned to become the next president and vice president of the United States. Campaigning against them at the time were Mellie Grant and Jake Ballard for the same position. However, Frankie was named the president of the United States on election night.
Meanwhile, it was also recently revealed that it was Olivia Pope’s (Kerry Washington) dad, Rowan (Joe Morton), who assassinated Frankie after he was named president of the country. But he only did it as he was told to protect his daughter. Now that the secret is out, Abby’s connection to Rowan and the secret organization he’s been working for will also be revealed in “A Stomach For Blood.”
“Scandal” Season 6, episode 8 will air on ABC on March 30 at 9 p.m. EST.
