'Scandal' season 4 spoilers: The crackdown on B613 continues, Olivia learns what really happened to Jake in episode 21 'A Few Good Women'

Scandal season 4 ABC

"Scandal" fans are still worried about Jake, who B613 secret agent Russell left to die after stabbing him multiple times in the stomach. Fortunately, Jake is still fighting for his life — at least this is what promotional photos make it look like. His wounds are all patched up as he is being tended by Olivia. 

The upcoming episode titled "A Few Good Women" will focus on Olivia as she springs into action after learning what really happened to her best friend. It will be exciting to see what she'll do when she realizes the guy she has been hooking up with is also the one who attempted to kill Jake. 

The next episode will also show Olivia working with Vice President Ross, who has been so uncontrollably defiant to President Grant and his administration. She then enlists the services of Olivia to help a woman in the Navy.

As Olivia deals with two serious issues, Quinn and Huck sort out the growing B613 trouble as they "do what they do best to get answers" about the organization established by Rowan Pope, who swore to eliminate anyone that gets in the way of his plans. 

The promo for episode 21 reveals Huck settling the score for his pal, Jake, by puncturing Russell's neck with a syringe. But in order for all this to end, Olivia and the team have to get past the Pope patriarch's violent alternative in teaching his daughter a lesson and take the man down. 

It is still a mystery how many lives will have to be taken away to get this done, not to mention who those will be if there will be any. But for now, the battle against B613 is in full swing.

"Scandal" season 4 episode 21 will air on May 7.
