OKMagazine.com: It was so hard for us to watch Huck turn on Quinn and yank out her teeth. What was it like for you to film a scene like that?
Guillermo Diaz: Oh my G-d, it was so scary. We were so nervous. I was especially nervous. I had never tortured anyone at OPA before. All my tortures were sort of random people. But this was Quinn and you thought Huck and Quinn were pretty cool! I was really nervous but I was exhilarated at the same time because it was a scene that you didn’t expect to see on the show and people were excited and sort of horrified too to see how far it went. It was the most fun scene I shot so far.
OKMagazine.com: So where is Huck going to be when Scandal returns?
GD: You’re going to see Huck still struggling and feeling terrible that he tortured Quinn. But he only feels terrible because he knows that Olivia is going to be upset. I think he still thinks in his head that he did the right thing. There will be the strain between Huck and Quinn’s relationship. And Olivia and Huck confront each other. Olivia is going to confront Huck about what he did and that’s going to be a pretty intense scene.
OKMagazine.com: What can you tell us about Jake taking over as head of B613?
GD: There’s going to be big changes in B613. Jake’s character has been much lighter than Huck and you’ve kinda thought, ‘Well, how are both these guys in B613?’ You’re going to kinda see the darkness that Huck has—you’re going to start to see that a little bit in Jake. I’m really excited to see that storyline and where it goes.
OKMagazine.com: What do you want to see happen with Huck? Do you think he’ll ever be reunited with his family?
GD: I would love to see Huck reunited with his family. I can’t imagine Shonda [Rimes] not bringing his wife and son back in some way or another!
