'Scandal' Season 3 Spoilers: Episode 4 'Say Hello to My Little Friend' Preview [VIDEO] 'Friends' Alum Lisa Kudrow Makes Her Debut

ABC's "Scandal" is in full swing and there are some possible spoilers along with a preview for this Thursday's episode "Say Hello to My Little Friend." Season three of the hit show starring Kerry Washington has not disappointed so far and you can be sure there will continue to be a number of twists and turns. Last week's episode involving a hostage situation at the White House was full of drama and this week's episode featuring the debut of Lisa Kudrow will likely continue with the suspense.

Wetpaint reports that the former "Friends" star will be making her season three guest appearance Thursday night as Democratic congresswoman Josephine Marcus. Not much is known about Kudrow's role as of yet, but apparently she will be involved in a scandal with the president's wife Mellie. Shonda Rhimes is bringing in another guest star on this week's episode. Melora Hardin, of "The Office" fame, will also appear in Thursday night's episode.

While Olivia Pope's romance with Fitz has been put on the backburner a bit so far this season, their passionate romance has remained a part of the storylines. However, Olivia's dad has become a much larger part of the show this season, as he continues to haunt Huck and is creating tension at Pope & Associates.

Now that Scott Foley's character Jake is back, it looks like another wrinkle has been added to Pope's romantic drama with the president. Episode four looks to be focusing once again on a scandalous politician enlisting the help of Pope & Associates. The side story for this week will likely be Mellie's scandal with Lisa Kudrow's character. It will be interesting to see what type of trouble the FLOTUS finds herself in. In a scene from last week's episode there almost seemed to be a moment of real intimacy between Fitz and Mellie, but that quickly turned into more proof that their hatred for one another will never end.

Wetpaint has the synopsis for this week's episode which you can find below:

"With Pope & Associates still struggling to find clients, the team decides to take on a philandering senator who enjoys taking photos of his not so public areas. Meanwhile, Mellie gets involved in her own scandal with Democratic Congresswoman Josephine Marcus (Lisa Kudrow)."
