*Spoiler alert!*
We repeat — do not continue reading if you have yet to watch the Jan. 29 episode of Scandal, “Run.” One more time: major spoilers ahead!
Barely five minutes into the winter premiere of Scandal and the the gladiators’ hearts collectively stopped as Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington) was dragged out of her apartment by masked men.
In sort of a “is this really happening?” sequence, the D.C. fixer, who has avoided life-threatening danger until now, was then transported to a dark, dungeon with no way out — and we’re not talking about the sex dungeons that Jamie Dornan visited to prep for Fifty Shades of Grey.
Pope’s fate seemed dire, that is, until she discovered the power of the bra! With wild hair, Pope yanked the underwire out to unlock a window — with intent to shimmy through. Although she still remains captive, if you’re inspired by Pope’s Macgyver skills and want to arm yourself with the exact style, Us Weekly is here for you.
Pope used the SABINE Contour Balconnette Bra ($58, Figleaves.com) by the newly launched Heidi Klum Intimates.
As for what else she has up her shirt, tune in next Thursday on ABC to see what unlikely tool Pope turns to for her next escape.
