no he stayed quiet because he allowed him to say what was on his mind have his rant. That's what Fitz does he don't have fighting matches with people. He let you say and do whatever and then he goes in for the kill because right after this happened he showed just how much power he really had which was take command right out of from under Rowan and gave it to Jake to run b613.

@mariajohnson2647

@@faithwatkins7811 exactly. Rowan reacted exactly the way fitz expected him to. Then fitz showed him that he had power by stripping Rowan of his position as command at b613 and gave that position to someone under rowan - jake. Like rowan said to jake later on in season 7 true power hides in plain sight. Fitz hides his power. He doesn't flaunt it and go around telling everyone that he is powerful. He just examines the facts or evidence and listens and observes. Then he makes his moves and no body can stop him .

This is the same man that sent a man Jake to sleep with his daughter to destroy the Olitz relationship. This is who you admire? This is also a man that lied to his daughter by telling her that her mom was dead when really he locked her up for 22 years and then put Olivia in boarding school to run b613. She pretty much raised herself. No this speech is bogus and this rant was unnecessary. He is a man and father and a terrible one at that. He is why Olivia could never be happy with Fitz or any man in her life because he's not happy in his life the decisions he made. Misery loves company

Eli, has read the word to Fitz!

Thank you Roman! THANK YOU!

When I watched this scene my whole body WENT COLD!!!!!!!!

It's like me talking. I have just added this to my profile, my personal Place and nothing is added to there unless it is of value. I would like to direct this to all of these boys and Girls surrounding this campus and many of the poeple I have met in my Life. You don't know the meaning of Privilege? Well this is an introduction. Thank you SHonda Rhymes. You take actual human situations and make them extra pumped of emotions and feelings and sooooul and then you share them with us who YOU KNOW can relate. I am thankful. Papa Pope, you won me over. Honestly, I DISLIKE FITZ, I am becoming SICK really sick of Olivia and of Fitz too. I admire really admire Mellie. I also get it... what "Papa Pope" means. Fitz is a spoiled brat.... Girls, you feel attracted to him? You envy Olivia? DO NOT. ONE DAY WILL COME WHEN DUMPS OLIVIA TOO. If you saw this scene from the season 3 episode 10 then I guess that you have arrived to see that episode where they show us the past of Mellie.... This woman... she is just either crazy, mental, or seriously strong beyond what I knew existed, but also suicial and self destructive to stay with such a hurtful man. Did you see how much love he had for her? Ok well, Olivia, you future is Mellie's present so belt on and prepare yourself for a similar ride.

Damn. That was hard papa pope. If I was Fitz, I would just want to bury myself in small hole to escape this enraging TRUTH !

I guess going to dinner would not be a good idea .

I didn’t appreciate rowan back then but I do now. YOU BETTA READ BABY FITZ!

My favourite scene

The face That Eli said he was a disappoinment for his daughter hand that really cut Fitz. Because he knew Eli was right Fitz isn't worthy Olivia, Millie, or any woman.

OK!!! Tell the truth... Joe Morton is THE best male actor EVER.

Read Fitz for Filth!!! Say what you want about Papa Pope, but this man is the truth!!!

baby daddy read Fitz for filth!!

And the award goes to Joe Morton, phenomenal performance here

He read him for filth but he was wrong he does truly love Liv

I watch this weekly

I remembered thinking what a great actor at the time, then I realised he also played Miles Dyson and now think he is an American national treasure. Makes me feel patriotic and I'm not even American.

Facts, Papa Pope, Facts!

Papa Pope put his foot down. Wow

He is a walking bomb, i love papa Eli

Slayyy

SHOOK😳👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

The creative audacity is the riffing/allusion/use of the narrative structure for comparison to the song Summertime. You truly are dismantling someone when you get lyrical/historical allegorical on them.

Get ready for another Papa Pope 5 min. rant

Mic drop🎤

Why he yelling a man with no eyebrows? That’s not nice.

I never realized it before, but he is who Olivia gets it from.

Papa Pope mad because he doesn't have love like Fitz. Papa Pope rant on and on how much a boy Fitz is but yet his daughter Olivia loves that boy no matter how much Papa Pope tries to break them up. Love wins.
