Summary

The one-and-only President Fitzgerald Grant joins Katie & Guillermo on this week’s episode to talk about everything from joining the Scandal cast, to what it was like directing the crazy OPA team. Plus, Tony Goldwyn shares his experiences breaking into the limelight as a sex symbol at 50 years old, being killed by Jason in Friday the 13th, and the “one minute” scene. And no episode would be complete without Katie & Guillermo talking about food – namely how Guillermo couldn’t eat on set as Homeless Huck, and why Katie thinks they should all make jam in Vermont.
