"Scandal" has been a roller coaster ride for fans and Kerry Washington's character ever since season four came back from its mid-season break. The premiere was racy, replete with suspense and excitement, to say the least. Episodes that followed were equally enticing as seasoned viewers of the show kept guessing and being proved wrong regarding the identity of Pope's abductor.

While episode 12 followed the death of Ian and the auction of Pope, episode 13 will deal with the identity of the highest bidder and what happens next in the White House. "No More Blood" picked off right where "Gladiators Don't Run" left off. The bidding for Olivia's life continues, according to the episode's synopsis on TV Guide. Her team desperately tries to save her. She is sold to the highest bidder, as the promotional video depicts Olivia with a black bag on top of her head. Once the bag is removed, Olivia looks shocked at the identity of her highest bidder.

While actors have been tight-lipped regarding the future of Olivia Pope, speculations are teeming on the Internet regarding the identity of the kidnapper. It could be a representative from Iraq which makes sense because the episode's synopsis reveals that the White House fears they will lose Olivia for good. SpoilerTV also hints that Fitz starts to lose hope on whether he will ever get his lover Olivia back.

Meanwhile, creator Shonda Rhimes received a lot of flak and criticism from her black woman being auctioned storyline, citing it to be racist and reminiscent of slavery. She replied to the heated criticism by tweeting, "Like I said, we have been writing about the dynamics of race, gender & power over here for 4 seasons."

Who will be Olivia Pope's bidder? Will it be her father, a B613 commander who hasn't really disappeared? An Iraqi representative or someone else entirely? Find out on Thursday, Feb. 19 on ABC at 9 p.m. EST.
