ABC's prime time hit, Scandal, returns tonight at 10/9c to ABC.

On the last episode, fans where taken on a roller coaster ride of emotions.

Olivia's father is no longer the head of B6-13, and Jake has taken the reins.

Olivia's mother escaped the government again, and was in front of the White House the last time we saw her.

Plus, to make matters worse, Vice President Sally killed her own husband because of his affair with Cyrus' husband.

So, tonight, while Gladiators are on the edge of their seats, emergency rooms all over the nation will be on stand by. Shonda Rhimes and her writing team are sure to make heart stops tonight with their season 3 return.

But, it's been a long 76 day hiatus.

If you are a Scandal-addict, one of the 11 things below probably happened to you.

1) Every time you see someone in a long white coat, your heart stops. Olivia, is that you?

2) Whenever a crisis emerges, you say, "It's handled," out of habit. Does it matter that you have no idea what is going on? Nope.

3) While some use Pinterest to plan their wedding, you have used it for the past month and a half to plan your “Return of Scandal” viewing party. And asked for snack opinions from all of your friends on Facebook.

4) You gave your immediate family and roommates your Hulu password to ensure that they used the past several weeks to catch up on any missed episodes before tonight at 10 p.m.  and quizzed them on what happened, just to confirm.

5) You have your schedule cleared from 9:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. Preparation before and time to heal after watching anything made by Shonda Rhimes are as important as breakfast and dinner.

6) During the past 76 days, you have perfected the Olivia Pope walk. You will use it to enter your Scandal extravaganza tonight, and you expect nothing less than a standing ovation.

7) At 10:30 a.m. on the day after the show, you and your co-workers reserve a conference room to go over the madness that happened the night before. You know other people are aware of what’s going on because 27 people walk in…slowly… It's kind of hard to be discreet.

8) As wrong as it may be, you secretly hope that Kerry Washington has Tony Goldwyn’s baby. Even though she is happily married. What else have you had to think about for the last 76 days?

9) Hiding your excitement on social media has never, ever been more difficult in your life.

10) You have 28 different theories on what is actually happening in the scene below, which was shown in the preview released weeks ago. You’ve had time. Lotsssss of time.  Mellie is definitely planning to murder her, look at that smile.

11) You and your boss have an understanding for your tardiness on Friday morning: Scandal hangovers are real.

Happy watching, Gladiators.
