Yeah, very dangerous we move to the race for the white house. Your voice, your vote, and the democrats will face off tonight. Lets take a look at the stage in wisconsin set for their first debate since New Hampshire. The big question now, will Hillary Clinton try something new after Bernie Sanders sweeping win . Abcs cecilia vega is here with the latest. Good morning, cecilia. Reporter george, good morning to you. Bernie sanders didnt just win in New Hampshire, it was one of the largest margins of victory since jfk won there in 1960. Now, Hillary Clintons team is rethinking the strategy and we could see it unfold tonight on that debate stage. As both sides prepare to come facetoface at tonights debate, for the First Time SinceBernie Sanders big New Hampshire victory, this morning, worry inside camp clinton. Sources telling abc news Hillary Clintons top advisers are now calling supporters from big donors to backers in congress trying to ease concerns. Weve learned its not whether you get knocked down that matters, its whether you reporter the strategy now shift the focus to South Carolina and nevada, the hope that clinton support among africanamerican and latino voters can help propel her to the nomination. The 22point loss in New Hampshire, bigger and more embarrassing than her camp ever expected. So big even sanders was shocked. You sound like youre surprised by the outcome yourself . We thought wed win but not by that large a vote. Reporter when i asked about the uphill fight ahead, this stark admission. If the election were tomorrow do you think you could win South Carolina and nevada . No. Fortunately for us, the election is not tomorrow. Reporter and about those recent attacks from bill clinton. Has he gone below the belt. I think so. Look, i know hes going to be out there defending his wife. Trust me, my wife will be out there defending me. Reporter but the battle now for minority voters. Sanders first stop after his big win, harlem where he ate sharpton. And listen to this, that New Hampshire win was very lucrative for Bernie Sanders. In the 18 hours after the polls closed there, sanders raised more than 5 million shattering the campaigns previous record for money raised in less than a day. Guys, and it is mostly from small donations. Thats whats been fueling him all along. High stakes tonight in this debate. Clinton team telling you anything about their strategy . You know, its funny, george. They wont. They dont want to put their playbook out. In the past theyve given us nuggets here and there. We expect issues affecting one. Thats the battleground and where Bernie Sanders is especially vulnerable watching for Hillary Clinton to go on the attack tonight and Bernie Sanders told me yesterday that he is ready for it. Okay, cecilia, thanks very much. Very important tonight. Thank you, cecilia. Now to the republican race, the field down to six candidates this morning after Chris Christie and Carly Fiorina announced they are dropping out. Now, all eyes on South Carolina where the next primary is about to take place. Abcs jon karl is there for us good morning, jon. Reporter good morning, robin. Fresh off his big win in New Hampshire, donald trump took a victory lap here in South Carolina last night, hes hoping a win here would make him unstoppable. The republican candidates are bringing their fight for the gop nomination to the south this morning. Rallying supporters overnight, donald trump said a South Carolina win would clear his path to the republican nomination. We win here, were going to run the table. After winning so big in New Hampshire. All of these characters are going to give it up. Reporter trump once again trained his fire on jeb bush who is hoping a strong South Carolina showing can save his campaign. You have a guy like bush who has his big fund its terrible. Ill be honest, the last thing we need is another bush. That i can tell you. Reporter and while ted cruz, the winner of the Iowa Caucuses couldnt repeat that performance wont be deterred by trumps victory. One of the most important conclusions coming out of these first two states is that the only candidate who can beat donald trump is me. Reporter meanwhile, marco rubio is trying to get back on track after his disappointing fifth place finish in New Hampshire. We caught up with rubio as he headed to South Carolina. He says hes willing to take on the gop frontrunner. Are you going to go after donald trump . Its no longer in my opinion enough to say the great things were going to do but you wont tell us how youre going to do them. Reporter and john kasich after his surprise second place finish in New Hampshire drew an overflow crowd in South Carolina. Kasich has relied on a positive campaign but says he is ready to hit back at his rivals. Dont mess with me, okay. So im not going to be a pin cushion for a marshmallow but im also not going to spend my time trying to trash other people. Reporter with Chris Christie and Carly Fiorina out, that smaller as you remember, robin, at one point we had 17 candidates. Now just 6 but that means donald trump and the antitrump candidates down to five. That is true. But what is the situation right now . How does the race stand right now in South Carolina . Reporter well, weve had no reliable polling since a week before the Iowa Caucuses. But donald trump had led every poll here in South Carolina going all the way back to october. I dont imagine thats changed very much. Probably not. Thank you. All the polls in New Hampshire, as well. Lets get more from our political analyst matthew dowd. Matthew, very different terrain from iowa and manchester, New Hampshire and that has vicious politics. It gets nasty and negative fast. It has aspects of iowa and New Hampshire. First its an open primary. That means democrat, independents and republicans can vote in it like New Hampshire. But it also has the highest personal of evangelicals similar to iowa but one of the in South Carolina is theyre not driven to the polls by social issues but establishment conservative issues and so when you look at all the panorama of this and also is, South Carolina is going to have twice as many liberal and moderate voters as iowa, so when you look at it, you give advantage, donald trump, when you go into South Carolina. And he probably has the lead going in. Lets talk about the democrats. That debate tonight. A lot of commentary swirling around Hillary Clintons debate strategy. Does she go very, very positive, put forward a vision, some people said she hasnt done that or is now the time to really try to take down Bernie Sanders . Well, listen, george, shes been wounded and shes bleeding so the first thing she needs to do is apply a tourniquet and stopping bleeding so she doesnt lose nevada the next state up. What i would do if i were her prosecute the case directly against Bernie Sanders and ignore the moderators and basically say in a calm, cool, strong way prosecute the case saying the only person on this stage that can get anything done is me. Theyre aspirational but the only thing that get those done would be me. I would turn to him and prosecute the case. Well be watching tonight. Matthew dowd, thanks very much. Thank you. Now to new developments overnight in ferguson, missouri, the federal government announcing its suing the city trying to force it to overhaul its Police Department. Which has repeatedly been accused of racial discrimination. Abcs Pierre Thomas is in washington with that story for us. Good morning, pierre. Reporter good morning, robin. In a blunt press conference the attorney general accused the city of ferguson of stonewalling attempts to right the wrongs of a Police Department she flatly described as racially biased. All this is what democracy looks like. Reporter this morning the Justice Department firmly agreeing with africanamerican residents of ferguson saying their complaints of unfair and racially biased police enforce enforcement are in fact true. The ferguson Police Departments violations in particular were expansive and without reasonable suspicion. And by using unreasonable force. These violations were not only egregious, they were routine. They were driven at least in part by racial bias. Reporter the Justice Department now suing the city of ferguson less than 24 hours after the city council rejected a deal to reform the police. I think the things that weve of course aed for are very reasonable. Were not trying to take away any safeguards. Reporter the attorney general wasnt buying it saying blacks in the city which saw so much unrest after the Fatal Police Shooting of Michael Brown they have waited decades for justice. They should not be forced to wait any longer. Reporter ferguson Officials Say theyre willing to Reform Police practices but argue that implementing the deal might be too costly and that changes were needed. Ferguson city councilman mark burns sent us an email last night saying while washington politicians can run up endless debt that doesnt work in ferguson where we, quote, actually have to pay our bills. The legal showdown now fully engaged. Robin. It certainly is. Now we turn to amy with the mornings other top stories starting with a tragedy in maryland. It is so, so sad. Flags are flying at halfstaff across maryland to honor two sheriffs deputies shot and killed while responding to reports of a suspicious person at a panera restaurant. This is north of baltimore. Police say the suspect who is wanted on two warrants opened fire targeting the deputies before he himself was shot dead. The deputies were 16 and 30year veterans of the force. Well, there are new precautions now because of the zika virus. The u. S. Olympic Committee Says it will hire Infectious Disease experts to advise athletes about the outbreak in brazil after soccer star hope solo expressed concerns about traveling to the rio games this summer. North korea leader kim jongun appears to have made another move to tighten his grip on power. Sources in south say hes executed his top army general citing abuse of power, a day after the Senate Approved harsherharsh theyre con depping iran for releasing video of a detained american sailor who appeared to be crying. A u. S. Navy Spokesman Says we are disgusted by the exploitation of our sailors for propaganda propaganda. Ten were held after straying into iranian waters. And some terrifying scenes from india as an elephant rampaged through this town for hours crushing cars. It damaged about 100 homes. People ran for their lives but the animal was not on the attack. Apparently it was just looking for the way back to the forest. It was subdued with tranquilizers and returned to the wild. And finally, sometimes you just really, really need your morning coffee, especially after a snowstorm so forget the fourwheel drive. One woman in canada relied on fourlegged drive and hooked up her trained border collies to her sled and made a bee bee line for the tim horton drivethrough. They had a special lane for her. An urban musher. I didnt know there was such a thing and a pro. The dogs. She said theyre plenty hyper already. Thats what i call a coffee rung, you know. Maybe a doughnut for the dogs. That would have been nice. They had their treats. Thanks, amy. Well move on to the debate over concussions in pro sports. Now turning to wrestling after that big announcement from daniel bryan who says hes retiring because of repeated head injuries. Jesse is here with that and bryan wants to send a message. He sure does. The thankyoudaniellebryan is filling up after the fan favorite announce noed severe concussions are forcing him out of the ring and now wants to be a role model for others at risk. Exchanging head butts at the top of the ladder. Reporter its hits like that and slams like thisin that now has one of pro wrestlings most beloved superstars off the mat. I took a test that said maybe thought it was. Reporter 34yearold wwe champion daniel bryan announcing this week that hes walking away from the sport he loves because of concussions. Within the first five months of my wrestling career, i had already had three concussions. And then it gets to the point when youve been wrestling for 16 years that adds up to a lot of concussions. Reporter his doctor documents at least ten of them, some bryan says even leading to seizures. So, unlike many pro athletes in sports where concussions are a constant danger bryan is one of the first to walk away before too much damage is done something hes encouraging others to consider. You have a responsibility to yourself, to your family, to your friends just to protect yourself. Reporter and bryan makes it clear he doesnt blame the sport or the wwe. He says after his last concussion, even after several outside doctors had given him the okay, the wwe would not clear him to return. Him from a situation where he wouldnt have been able to walk away by choice and maybe without major consequence. This is his choice. Youre seeing more and more athletes. Nfl players have left the sport early in their careers because of concussions. People becoming much more proactive. Clear about why hes doing it. Rob with the record. Cold in the east. Heat in the west. Yin and yang and california, three days in a row of do it again today. Good morning out there.

They will join police and fire officials to update us on the investigation. Two people died and three buildings destroyed when the gas line ruptured. So far, there have been no charges in connection with the blast. It is 7 25. Well take a break. In bayonne, passengers say the captain deserves in be in jail for sailing them in a wild storm with Hurricane Force winds. People coming ashore cheered at their release and even kissed the ground. The worlds Third Largest cruise ship was rocked by the storm with close to 6,000 people hanging on in their cabins. 7 27. Lets get a check on your morning commute with heather orourke. Reporter this tractor trailer on 80 eastbound has been with us for hours. We have delays all the way back to 206 picking up volume. Route 46, route 10 also picked up a lot of volume. Street cleaning rules are in effect. Lori, back to you. Meteorologist bill evans. Weve got bright sunshine and hardly a cloud in the sky. We are looking at temperatures like 24 cambria heights. The real feels are at 10. Minus 3 monticello. We have sunshine today but its not going to get above freezing today through the weekend. Lori . Thank you, bill. Thatll do it for us. We welcome you back to gma. Youre looking at the anthem of the seas, safely docked this morning in bayonne, new jersey, after facing, oh, hurricaneforce winds. How some of the passengers from that ship, now theyre here live. Im going to talk to them in just a moment. Looking forward to that. We are. Lara out in hollywood behind the scenes with the cast of scandal. How is it going in the oval . Its not bad, george. I could get used to this. I am in the oval office, while the Scandal Oval Office and im not alone. Joined by none other than mr. President. Good morning, america. And some of his cast members. Interesting sequence here, it is the fight between good and evil. But the question is on scandal that we love, whos good, whos evil . Well find out in a scandal why was lara in my seat . Thats what i want to know. Im going to get in trouble. This guy, watch him. Watch me. We got our eye out. Were watching. All right, lara, well get back to you. First, the Cruise Ship Passengers finally back on solid ground after that nightmare at sea. Royal caribbeans giant ship, anthem of the seas arriving safely in new jersey overnight after surviving hurricaneforce winds. Some of those passengers are good enough to be with us here. Were going to talk to them in just a moment but first, linsey davis is at that dock in bayonne, new jersey, with more. Good morning, linsey. Reporter good morning, robin. Seeing the ship now from the outside it looks as if nothing ever even happened. Certainly thats a far cry from the accounts that weve been hearing again and again from passengers who talk about this massive ship listing at 45 degrees and then if you count up three stories they talk about water going overtop of those balconies three stories high. Sea, the anthem of the seas finally made it to shore where passengers were greeted with cheers. The 4500 now seaweary passengers thankful to be on dry land. Im alive. Im alive. This is insane. Reporter again and again, we heard stories of fear, of passengers saying as the ship was being pounded by 30foot waves and wind gusts topping 100 Miles Per Hour sunday night they thought for sure they would not survive. Some people were absolutely terrified. It was scary. Reporter some are still questioning the captains judgment to venture out to sea with severe storm warnings in the forecast and wednesday night, Royal Caribbean apologized to its passengers in a statement calling the event exceptional and saying the company has identifyied gaps in our Planning System that we are addressing. What happened this week showed that we need to do better. Something went wrong. Forecast correctly or we will see any way to change our procedure, processes to do anything to make sure this doesnt happen. Reporter maritime lawyer jim walker says half a dozen passengers already called him from the ship wanting to file a lawsuit. The real issue here is whether the cruise lines have any liability for the fear and anxiety that most of these passengers had and in most cases, cruise lines are not responsible when the passengers have been fearful of weather conditions. Reporter while at least four people suffered minor injuries, Royal Caribbean says the ship didnt sustain any major damage. The ntsb is currently considering an investigation. In the meantime, Royal Caribbean tells us anthem of the seas will once again set sail on saturday, heading to the bahamas. Robin. All right, linsey, joining us now to share share stories are peter and angela alupus. Ash lot and Charlotte Lipman and alex hayes. Good morning to you all. Good morning. Do you still feel like youre rocking a little bit . Absolutely. I was just looking at you as you were watching that. Were so thankful that there are only some minor injuries and that you all are doing okay. Okay, who kissed the ground when they got back . Anybody do that . Everyone . You always hear about people saying theyre going to kiss the ground. Peter, we saw your sisters video that she posted. You guys were told to stay in your cabins. It looks like you guys were in a washing machine. I mean, what was it like inside thats exactly what it was like. It was absolutely terrifying. We were on the third floor with an ocean view and we literally saw the ocean with dori swimming by. Good you can have a sense of humor about it right now. But the captain would come on. You could hear even 17 years hes been a captain. He was experienced but there are a lot of crew members, this was their first time out. Could you hear the fear in their voices . My sister walked out into the corridor and saw some of the staff hugging and crying and thats when she got concerned. We also didnt have any life vests in the cabin which is unusual. Weve cruised many times and i guess they keep them at stations now but we were told to go back to the cabins and there were no life vests. Luckily we had our own personal snorkel vests and my sister was wearing it throughout the yes. Before. We have. Lauren, okay, i can understand this, you had a panic attack. Oh, yeah. Even though you were beyond. Even though you were told to stay in the cabin, you had cabin fever. Had to get out. We were probably we were all together probably in the room for 20 minutes if that and then we left. Yeah. I couldnt do it and the crew members were even telling us get back to the room and i said, no. Im not going back. I hate to use the phrase but you said you felt like you had a titanic moment. Captain came on the actual loudspeaker telling us to get back to our rooms. He didnt sound very convincing that it was going to be okay so it just everyone around us just started crying, saying they couldnt breathe. I had a guy rubbing my back up the stairs saying its going to be okay. When everyone is freak out like that it gives you a lot of anxiety. Not everybody was freaking out. Charlotte, youre 10 years old. It was your birthday cruise. Yeah. And your daddy and everyone said you were having a good time eating candy and stuff. What was the like for you. It was kind of scary since i saw the waves and they were basically almost crashing on to our terrace. And the room is basically tilted all the way down like a ramp but when it wasnt moving i just ran down and then i fell on the bed. It was fun but still really scary. Yeah, because your daddy was there for you and you had to be concerned, papa. It was very concerning but we tried to make the best of it. You said you got to eat candy and got quality time with your dad, oneonone time with your dad so there was a bonus there. Response from Royal Caribbean saying that there were some gaps and stuff. Looking back, what do you all think should have been perhaps done differently, would you want Something Different . Yes, it came to my attention from a meteorologist friend of mine this storm had been forecast up to a week before and ive been watching the news since we came on land and they say even 24 hours before, the forecast was very accurate as far as what we were sailing into. So, you know, in retrospect, the captain did maneuver us through the storm, but i think he was instrumental in getting us to the storm and thats what i think needs to be addressed is how do we prevent this fwra happening again. The big lesson here. Show of hands. Who is going to go on a cruise ship again . Look at you. A few shaky hands. Charlotte was right up. Quite a daughter you have there. Shes a daredevil. Hey, thank you all very much i know it had to be some very scary moments and thank you for sharing your story. Theyre not scared off at all.

It took them 28 years to get the no word why it took so long, but good work, guys. Better late than never, robin. I guess so, amy. Thank you. We have a big Health Headline for the millions of americans frying to lose weight. Twothirds of u. S. Adults are classified as overweight or obese and a new study from Johns Hopkins says those popular Weight Loss Centers that so many use may not be helping. Dr. Jennifer ashton is here with the details. Whats going on . If you are overweight or obese and in my office i would likely counsel you about the importance of losing weight and then might likely refer you to one of these Weight Loss Centers to help you because this is an ordeal. So what this study did, they did a report card in an urban area of medical Weight Loss Centers and what they found, they didnt do so well. There is a lot of room for improvement. One of the findings was about 1 only follow the actual medical guidelines in helping patients lose weight. Physician. And only about 3 are recommending the proper amount of physical activity. Card here. Yeah. Why are they not following we dont know. I mean, my take on this is a number of possible explanations. Number one, a center may choose deliberately to pursue their own approach, which is fine as long as youre transparent about it and want to follow your own recipe. What would be more concerning if they were actually unaware that there were real guidelines that should ideally be followed and, lastly, obviously there could be financial gain here and it could be a scam so this is a scenario where patients need to proceed with caution. Congratulations, you are just newly yes. Board certified when it comes to obesity medicine. There is some research out there that shows why it is so difficult for many to lose weight. Obeseity medicine data in some cases losing a significant amount of weight may not be as simple as eating carrot sticks and exercising a lot. This is a complex issue with multiple causes. There are metabolic reasons, hormonal reason, environmental reasons, exposure in utero, behavioral, genetic. This is a war on obesity, so we need an army to fight it. Jen, you know so many people, they see these centers in malls, in strip malls and all around. What is your recommendation. Well, proceed with caution. Okay, there are a couple of tips. Nun one, you want to be clear about your goals. Are you going to lose 20 pounds or going because youre trying to lose 200 pounds and ask about the credentials of the people operating these centers. Good. That should be up front. Its not a secret. You are entitled to know their qualifications. Ideally, people can go to the internet and read the American Heart Association and Obesity Society guidelines on weight loss from 2013. Its a magnum opus but it is everyone to look at and, lastly, you have to factor in cost. We say it all the time. Its expensive to be overweight. But getting good health can also be expensive and so cost has to be factored in. Wonderful suggestions right there. Congratulations again. Thank you. Like she needs another title. Doesnt have enough going on. A little bit of free time. Jen will answer your questions. Tweet her drjenashton. Kim kardashian opening up about baby number two and starting a parenting debate.

Posting this week, i get no sleep. In reference to balancing the needs of her newborn son with those of her toddler daughter, north west. One is like one she writes repeating something her mother once told her. Two are like twenty. Every wake second im not with the baby im with north.

Relatable and in this post, Kim Kardashian proved shes just like every other mother out there. Completely overwhelmed by taking care of kids. Reporter the strain from becoming a Second Time Mom is far from uncommon. According to a 2015 study conducted by the university of michigan, 65 of women are first year or two after the birth of their second child. Nicole herwitz knows 9 stress of going from one to two. The new york mom says she was just getting no a routine with her firstborn max when she welcomed a new baby two months ago. Mornings used to be really easy. My son would wake up and we would do breakfast for him and get him off to school. Now its a lot of preparing at night to get the toddler out the door and start things all over with the newborn. Reporter experts say enlist help from a baby sitter or spend time with mommy friends who understand the stress and schedule some me time on a regular basis. If your older child is feeling jealous or left out, you can always make them feel included in taking care of the baby. Reporter for Good Morning America, reena ninan, abc news, new york. You have to pull the older child off the younger child. Yeah, you have to watch those two. Absolutely. And kim is very fortunate. To help her out that some other mothers might not have.

We have all agreed to spill some scandalous secrets but here is a little look at something to come tonight. Yes, yes. Are you going to open the door . Are you okay . Im fine. What do you mean. I mean, you wont open the door and thats weird. Is there someone in there. This isnt about a client. You want to talk on the phone. Surveillance we do not want anyone at the nsa to hear about this. Why . Whos the client . The head of the nsa. I was just trying out for a role. Im not going to live. I have a captive audience and i love the show so much. [ applause ] im going to start oh, so kerry washington, thanks for being here. Very, very early. All of you, thank you. Our first gladiator and one of our most fierce gladiators. I tried to dress the part today. Sexy. Thanks. The scene that we just saw what are you hiding behind the door, girl . That scene, huck is trying to you will not usually you let everybody in. You have something, either a man or a something. Uhhuh. 9 00, 8 00 central. 9 00, 8 00 central. Really . Thats my answer. The only way you get to see whats behind the door. Does whats behind the door have a heartbeat . Hmm. Poet lick speaking. Thats beautiful. I see life in all kinds of things. That was great. Whoo. I have a big crush we saw a glimpse of it. I feel like fashion is almost another character in the show. Uhhuh. It definitely tells a bit of the story and what weve seen so far indicates a sea change of sorts, in fact, im going to start i want you to roll one more clip and youll understand what im talking about. Go ahead, roll this. We are never done. We do not give up. My world, my rules, this is war. There is no script. Do you want to be a gladiator its handled. I like that. Oh, yeah, you throw that white hat. Out with the white, in with the red. Let me ask any of you what is the red symbolize . Whats the change well see in olivia and in all of you . Ooh, wow. What is the change . If you say 9 00, 8 00 central no. It feels like it feels like were not hiding anymore. It feels like which is ironic because of the clip we just showed of hiding. But it feels like everybody is trying to step into their new truth. Are you sick of being on the white horse . Do you have a different agenda now. Well see. I think everybody is still struggling. Thats so much to me what the show is about. Everybody is trying to be the best version of themselves. Not everybody. Upstanding person. Trying. Not everybody is not everybody is able. I was going to point right to your dad. No, no. He thinks hes being the best version of himself. Absolutely. Yeah. Soliloquy like you, my friend, joe plays command. Thank you very much in front of my entire case. Yes, thank you. Theres just something about the lilt in your voice and i love the dynamic thats happening or that im sensing between you three. Hunk. Whats to come . What can you tell us about the dynamic between that triangle . Well, the last thing you saw, right, was that he walked into my house which means that were either going to be very close or theres going to be a lot of blood. Really, okay. Oh, wow, look, look at the action. Oh, well we have a chyron up. You cant see but i just saw a very touching moment. It was. Im not feeling well be singing kumbaya during that scene. You dont know. The last thing we saw jake walking into rowans house so i think theres a lot of possibility there. Feelings in the past and understandably so. Yeah. But i think theres an open door there in huck, i want to ask you. Your character is probably the most complicated. I just called you huck. Guillermo. Okay. Guillermo, how is that for you to play must just be a delicious piece of meat for an actor. Yeah. And also what can we expect from your character . Its awesome. You know, im the luckiest guy. I feel like im on television to portray huck but you know, huck, i think, is trying to be that normal guy. You know, hes trying to be that guy. Really, hes trying really, really hard and as you saw in one of those scenes a few episodes ago where he doesnt end up torturing rowan was a major step forward. Huck is getting soft. Well, i dont kind of. I look at it as hes getting strong. Amen. That, i agree. I absolutely agree. Resisting the trying to break corn themous. He is the newest gladiator. [ applause ] yeah, yeah, yeah. He might not be as willing to do the things that you are willing to do. Very true . My friend. So how yet. Oh, really. I mean, who knows. Who knows. Thats true. How will that dynamic work, though, when youre willing to pull teeth literally . I think that youll see a lot Going Forward about what its like to have a new gladiator in the office and how we all sort of deal with that energy and what responsibilities we give him, what we dont give him and how he fits into the fold. All right and then darby, who is my fashion icon. Always fun to see you. Ah. And abby, poor abby, thats tough to be in that press room. You had a hard time with the press core. Do you get a break . Abby comes into a little bit of a different scene in this second half of the season and there is a major change. Thats all i can say, major. Capital major. Oh. So are we saying abby has one of the biggest story linesy should we be watching abby. Yeah, yeah. I know. I havent even gotten to this side. Every story equal opportunity writing. But abby i would say every character has major changes. And i mean, portia, this little threeway back here quite literally and art must, wellemus, welcome to the family. I want to hear about that. Ive been saving your trouble all the time.

Right before i put the pasta in i put the salt. Salt is free on today. Then we cook it until its out there. If you do it you cook it according to the package instructions written right on the box. Cook it one minute short of that the rest of the things we call palm de mento. I put three of the links back in the freezer. Dont be afraid to freeze. Dont leave it on the counter. Take it out the night before and put it in the fridge and broccoli is blanched in water and throw it in like that. You blanched it. How long do you blanche. When you blanche things you bring water up to a boil and throw it in quickly with a little bit of salt, take it out after one minute, put it in ice water to shock it and refresh it which retains the chlorophyll. Glad i asked. Retains the crunch and also helps you know youre maintaining some of the vitamins and minerals. Very nice. Good. All right. So if you dont have a colander around the house or a sick, let me reach for the sink, ooh, sorry. Virtual kitchen. The virtual sink is so good. Whats important in good pasta dish, dont take the noodles out and just put them naked on the plate. You toss them into the pan with separate ingredients, the noodle and all the other stuff come together as one. Yeah. Now well add a little chili flakes. A marriage of flavors. Exactly. A little drizzle of extra olive virgin oil. Cheese. Just a little cheese. Cheese is expensive and will mask it. And you buy your cheese in bulk. Buy my cheese in bulk and also i only keep in the refrigerator how much ill use that week, a half pound. The rest in the freezer wrapped twice in foil and then in a plastic wrap. You can freeze that. You can freeze cheese the hard, dried cheeses you can freeze. The soft ones not so much. Put the cheese in the pan. So that it melts almost becomes a little like fondue. Oh. One of the big things about italian pasta cooker erercookery. Abudanza, simple food. Never see giant italians walking they eat pasta every day. They eat the right portion. Thank you so much.

But as you saw in the last things are pretty strained between us so abby really has are you going to hit on abby now . I cant tell you anything about that. Whoa. I think you were just giving us a little a little look at bellamy. Meanwhile, bellamy is fine. Bellamy doesnt like me. Doesnt care with olivia being gone. She is focused on becoming the president of the united states. Yeah, yeah. Right . Doesnt get much help from if she needs it. Amen. So, are you watching helping other places. Who knows. Hence, why we saw bellamy in olivia popes office earlier in this show. Thank you for sharing a secret. Could it be . Could it be . Thats what this segment is all about. Digging, digging. Cornelius, the very handsome, very earnest gladiator, newest member of the team. Getting on the set, working with this team which is like a family what was that like for you and what was something that surprised you, a scandal secret about one of your cast mates. First off i was really surprised just how much it felt like a family on set. People are really genuine, open and like family when you kind of get in there you get teased a little bit. [ laughter ] thats true. Ive had my share of let us say pranks but a little bit. They put a little sprinkle i love to eat. I found somebody who loves to eat just as much as i do. Who is that. This man. Every morning. How long are the days on the set . Tell me about the days. I imagine a show like this very long. We have the hardest working crew in hollywood. This crew like any of us [ applause ] our crew is tireless and they are professional and like if they are the family youre not seeing here because no way wed be sitting here without them and work harder than anybody up here. Theyre here today with us. They came in. Thank you, guys. Behind the scenes. So one of our viewers wanted to know who hangs out off screen . You guys are dark we all do. Ive actually been out with a few and ive seen you all the wine flows even when youre not in olivias apartment. Yeah, definitely. The girls like to gather and do walks we do too. Did you watch the super bowl together . Anybody . No. I want to ask you, kerry, your wardrobe changes, which did you like better, being the gladiator in white or the kind of sexy lady in red . This one it was tricky for me. Our very first sitting was in the script that olivia starts wearing bright colors and lynn and i kind of froze. We sat and looked at each other and try again the next day. One of the ways ive distinguished between kerry and owe live i wear a lot of bright colors and she doesnt. Were figuring it out. It was a huge shift. Your Costume Designer deserves an award. She is a genius. I agree. I just need to know before we go, can you really remain alone . Youve got your flanked by your two loves, can olivia pope stand on her own two feet . I think its also thats an interesting question. Are you alone when you are like she still has her gladiators, maybe thats enough for now. Is that enough . Maybe. It is what her father wants for her. Oh. Stand on her own two feet. Listen, command. Its the truth. We always worry about what your ulterior motive is. To make sure my daughter is happy. Oh, my god. Or dead.
