Olivia (Kerry Washington) is still reeling from Jake Ballard (Scott Foley) showing up on her doorstep, but that doesn’t stop her from taking a new client meeting in a fabulous coat. Olivia walks in the office wearing Donna Karan’s sold out double face cashmere coat. This Zara wraparound coat ($239) or this Ralph Lauren Plush Drape Front Coat ($295) are similar:

The team starts to realize that their new client isn’t everything she seems to be. Olivia wears a Giorgio Armani violet grey suit, Josie Natori shell, Gucci grey suede shoes, Ippolita necklace ($695)and a Movado Concerto watch ($2395) (IDs courtesy of Good Morning America).

For a full look for less you can try this Marled Twill Jacket from The Limited ($128) 9 & Co. Charmeuse top ($19.99), Kelsi Dagger Lizzy shoes ($29.99), black onyx necklace ($95) and the Coach Tristen watch ($278):

 Olivia follows their new client and gets stuck in a hostage situation. The woman is in the midst of a government cover up as she is trying to find out the truth about her son. He was a hero, but because of other deep cover agents, she will never be able to learn the truth about what happened to him.

Olivia and team spend the day trying to find the truth for her as she holds Olivia hostage, but when Olivia finally gets Fitz (Tony Goldwyn) on the phone, he tells her she can’t tell the woman the truth to protect other agents. The woman simply cannot accept this and ends up becoming a terrorist herself.

This episode was hard to watch. There weren’t any winners in this situation, not to mention the fact that Huck (Guillermo Diaz) gets pressured by Olivia’s father to kill again.

At the end of the day, Olivia realizes that she didn’t get Jake back for free and that her father will always own Jake and Huck and can get to them at any time.
