Scandal (TV Series)

Sweet Baby (2012)

Joshua Malina: David Rosen

Quotes 

• David Rosen : Olivia, you don't have the muscle of the White House behind you anymore. You're just a private citizen, who is, by the way, annoying.

  Olivia Pope : He's a decorated war hero. He's a patriot. You realize the blow-back you'll get for rushing to judgment on a patriot?

  David Rosen : The blowback *you'll* create?

  Olivia Pope : Well, yeah. That's my job.

  David Rosen : Do you actually have the naivete to believe that waking me in the middle of the night and threatening me is the correct path to getting your way?

  Olivia Pope : I wasn't threatening you. He didn't kill her. My gut says he didn't.

  David Rosen : Your spidey senses aren't evidence. I've been on the phone with homicide. He killed her and ran.

  Olivia Pope : I can have a reporter out here in 20 minutes, with cameras, asking why you are persecuting an innocent, handicapped medal of honor winner. Perhaps because he's a well-known conservative republican and you are considering a bid on the democratic ticket next year. Just to be clear that was me threatening you.
