At the end of the last episode, we see Huck in a dicey situation at the storage facility and Olivia banging her head pretty good because of Jake. This week's episode picks up right after the fact, with Huck chanting the number 752 over and over and Olivia getting a special visit from the President. While Huck was chanting his numbers, the Fitz was chanting to Olivia that he loved her, while she rebuffs him.
Flashback: We see a cleaner version of Huck returning from a tour in Kosovo visiting his girlfriend, played beautifully by guest star Jasika Nicole. The two are happy and in love and, of course, we know this must end badly since she is not a regular on the show and Huck is now much dirtier and a little crazier. Returning from his tour of duty with the Marines, Huck is offered a government job with the CIA, one that has a job description of torturing and killing supposed traitors. And so it begins.
Back to the present, we see the President sticking by Olivia's hospital room even though she continuously says she hates him and will not talk to him. This causes all sorts of problems for Cyrus as he must now explain why Fitz is at the hospital in the middle of the night. And of course Mellie is not at all happy about all of this. As she is about to be discharged from the hospital, Olivia and Fitz have an intense moment of him saying that he's still angry about Defiance, but he cannot live without her and her admitting to still loving him. The two kiss, which of course makes the audience ridiculously excited. And a second later Olivia says she cannot do it anymore. Fitz looks devastated, goes back to the White House Only to find Mellie leaving him and take their son with her.
Back to the flashbacks. Huck is happy. He likes torturing and killing people. And then his life turns upside down. His girlfriend becomes pregnant, the two marry, and he begins to not enjoy his job anymore. Well of course the CIA is bound to find out and, when they do, they lock Huck in a box for extended periods of time, continuously asking if he has a wife and child, which he steadfastly says that he does. It even gets to the point when crazy assassin guy thinks that the CIA is doing too much. Finally, he says no. When assassin man is about to kill him, he instead lets him go and tells him to be a ghost. When saying that the mission is a success, we learn that the boss is none other than the man meeting with Jake about Albatross. Twists and turns everywhere. And Huck cannot even remember if his family is real or not, though Olivia gets him to admit that they at least felt real. Then we learn the reason for the number 752. It was the exact time when he saw his wife and son as Union Station and his son gave him a dollar, never realizing Huck was never more than a homeless man.
So what happens next? And can we please see Jasika Nicole again?
