| The moment Mellie realizes she lost the election... |
In a nutshell, the story goes....
- Mellie loses the Presidential election.
- Frankie gets shot.
- Frankie DIES! (RIP Frankie)..... And CYRUS supposedly did it!
I'm pretty sure that for the next couple (to a few weeks), the scandal itself will be trying to find out if Cyrus did indeed kill Frankie Vargas... perhaps not by his own hands, but by his own intent. This is one heck of a scandal to jump start the season!
Are we really surprised by this? I mean, after all, this is Cyrus Beane. Daddy Pope told no lies when he said, "Cyrus Beane is the most dangerous predator of all". I think Daddy Pope may have been selling himself a little short there, but he ain't neva lied. Cyrus is a literal MONSTER.
His whole "in-a-state-of-shock" moment in the hospital was pretty believable. But Cy is a master a manipulator.. he's really good at being believable in even the most unbelievable situations. Let us not forget that he almost had Charlie kill James (RIP)... his own husband, back in season 2, and mid Season 5, he did have Frankie Vargas shot in order to win favor with the people and get him the nomination. And it worked! and bruh did manage to step back just in time to not get hit my the bullet heading Vargas' way on that stage. And the young lady who gave the tip that Cyrus was responsible was DEFINITELY blown up (or at least her house was) shortly thereafter.
During Fitz' chat with Rosen, and Rosen's quickie lesson on the way the electoral college works (which was for us... clearly Fitz knows how the electoral college works), we learn along with Fitz that HE is who determines who the next president will be, under such circumstances. His word is all that is needed. After some deliberation, a chat with Liv and a chat with Mellie, Fitz chooses Cyrus, which was so interesting to me! So now, Cyrus (at least for the time being) is going to be - get ready for it - in charge. Cyrus is smart. Cyrus has been in politics a long while and has a lot of knowledge. But Cyrus is too petty, vindictive, and dangerous for this job!
Look, all I'm going to say is... we don't know if Cyrus did it or not. All we have to work with is his track record, the evidence, and the sly wit of one pissed of black woman with a badass coat collection!

| Liv (in her badass coat) telling Fitz to choose Mellie as President of the United States |
Liv has already proclaimed (to Mellie) that she is not done running for President. I wonder how she will approach her Cyrus takedown and takeover the Oval.
What do you guys think???
