Season four has been especially scandalous following Olivia Pope's kidnapping, auction and rescue. After an intriguing turn of events, Pope is back doing her job and solving seemingly impossible and perilous situations.

Episode 14 titled "Lawn Chair" will see Pope at a murder scene. A black father is under the impression that his child has been killed by a white police officer and seeks vengeance, reports Fashion & Style. Liv thrusts herself in to the situation, trying to calm things down. She tells the father, "I'm here to help you. I thought we could talk" in the promotional video for the episode.

However, the video also depicts Pope experiencing tremors all over her body, a common sign of post-traumatic stress disorder or PTSD. Fans will see Pope suffering the effects of what happened to her. Moreover, a phone call from her ex-lover President Fitzgerald Grant may have accentuated her PTSD.

The episode's synopsis, as reported by TVGuide, also talks of an unfortunate event that becomes national news. The White House also needs to figure how to handle the vice-president. The episode certainly sounds interesting as fans get a glimpse of Pope's PTSD and another White House crisis.
