Rhimes sent out a tweet, clearly displaying a snippet of dialogue between the two leads of each show, Olivia Pope and Annalise Keating — verifying what fans had been speculating and obsessing over since early Wednesday afternoon.
People. It's happening. @petenowalk, you ready for this? #TGITCrossover #HowtoGetAwaywithScandal
Rumors began to swirl when Kerry Washington tweeted this photo, which definitely looks a lot like the she's waiting in the lobby to enter Annalise Keating's classroom. "This spot look familiar?" Washington said to Viola Davis, who was tagged in the caption.
Hey Ms @violadavis ❤️ check it out. This spot look familiar?! Where are you? https://t.co/JFdiCTmbFs
A few minutes later, Davis tweeted, "guess where I am?!" to Washington from a set that looks uncannily like the Oval Office from Scandal.
Hey @KerryWashington, guess where I am?!
The tweets from the two leading ladies sent folks on Twitter into a frenzy, with one person confessing that they "won't survive" seeing Davis and Washington on screen at the same time.
IF A SCANDAL AND HTGAWM CROSSOVER IS HAPPENING I WON’T SURVIVE KERRY AND VIOLA ON SCREEN AT THE SAME TIME
And, like, same.
Wigs won't just be snatched, they'll probably disintegrate from this potential union of television powerhouses.
Ok if a Scandal & How To Get Away With Murder crossover happens my wig might actually shred itself
And naturally, people who are clearly invested in the shows have a lot of demands for the crossover.
THE SCANDAL/HTGAWM CROSSOVER EPISODE SHOULD BE TWO HOURS LONG, KEEP FRANK AWAY FROM OLIVIA BECAUSE GOD KNOWS SHE LO… https://t.co/PP4t9MV8DH
But, like, let's hope we don't all actually perish, overwhelmed by excitement.
IF A SCANDAL/HTGAWM CROSSOVER IS HAPPENING I REALLY THINK I WILL DIE WOW OMG #TGIT
In all, we're barely a week into 2018 and this go 'round the sun already looks a bit brighter than the last one.
