I know people are probably still scarred by the fact that there wasn’t any wine in last night’s Scandal and may not even be able to bring themselves to read recaps this morning. I mean, Liv was having a prime scenario in which to get her grape on: namely, having a torturous late night in-the-dark phone convo with Jake. Where was the wine??? Trust me, I was’t even the only one asking this question on Twitter. I was left to tweet about things like Drunk Mellie (who was by far my fave thing about the episode, even if she was lapping up the vodka instead of vino) and reviewing the Scandal Drinking Game:

Then I saw this wine glass on Instagram and thought it was funny so tweeted it:

Oh, you know who else thought it was funny? Kerry Washington! NBD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not only has Olivia Pope inspired people to grab their grapes every Thursday night (and hopefully beyond) but she’s also single-handedly boosted the sales of wine glasses.

Get ready for the finale next week, Gladiator Grapefriends! Abby & I will be watching, tweeting, and drinking wayyy more wine than anyone – even Olivia. Challenge on!
