There's reason to celebrate on Scandal: Mellie Grant is going to be president! In the Thursday, Feb. 9 episode, Cyrus Beene (Jeff Perry) was taken into custody for killing Francisco Vargas (Ricardo Chavira) on election night, meaning Mellie (Bellamy Young) would be poised to take the POTUS Twitter handle and become Scandal's 45th commander in chief. In the preview clip shown on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Mellie and Olivia Pope ( Kerry Washington) celebrate with wine, dancing and savvy camera shots to hide Washington's pregnancy. "Like a pigeon in a way," host Jimmy Kimmel said. And now popcorn is available to her pretty much always because of the show.
