Scandal is in its seventh and final season, and it's going out with a bang. The show has already created a ton of drama this season, including Olivia's intervention and Quinn's kidnapping. But all of that pales in comparison to the fact that a Scandal and How to Get Away With Murder crossover is on the way. Details about the episode, which will air on March 1, are being kept under wraps, but we have some guesses about what might happen.
Olivia could very well be helping Annalise with her class-action lawsuit — after all, she has a lot more time on her hands now that Mellie's apparently replaced her as chief of staff. But whatever Annalise and Olivia have planned, there are plenty of moments fans will be waiting for now that the characters of both shows have a chance to interact. With the crossover just weeks away, here are a few things I'd love to see play out on screen.

Annalise Says, "It's Handled"
If Shondaland and ABC are going to create this epic crossover event, they might as well go all in with the iconic moments. How funny would it be to hear Annalise Keating say Olivia Pope's signature catchphrase?

Marcus Gives Asher a Reality Check
Off camera, Matt McGorry is a fierce advocate for equality. But his How to Get Away With Murder character, Asher? Not so much. I'd love to see Marcus, Scandal's true moral compass and voice for the underrepresented, put Asher in his place about privilege.

Quinn and Michaela Bond Over Their Once Heroes
Michaela has frequently told Annalise that she wanted to be her before law school. And when Quinn initially becomes a gladiator in Scandal's first season, she is awestruck to work for Olivia Pope. These two have a lot in common, and they'd totally hit it off.

Huck and Oliver Bond, Too
While we're at it, Huck and Oliver also have a lot in common. Oliver might not enjoy torturing people, but just imagine the hacking they could do with their skills combined.

Annalise Shuts Down Fitz
As far as the Scandal universe goes, Fitz is a pretty fair president and a progressive Republican . . . but he's still Fitz, the most annoying character on the show. It doesn't take much to get Annalise worked up these days, and it would be so satisfying to see one of her signature lectures directed his way.
