It's hard to explain how it handled the abortion. We knew the character was pregnant by a political figure she used to work for who basically sleeps with anything that walks. A whole bunch of other things went down for her at the same time, including her finding out that she was not special to the politician.
We didn't know what she was going to do about the pregnancy, or how exactly she felt about it. A few episodes into the second season, she's talking to a reporter about a colleague of hers who had been killed. She's stonewalling him, telling him that sometimes things just happen, and you want there to be meaning but in the end it's just a random mistake. It's interspersed with images of her clearly having an abortion, calm but sad. The actress delivered it really well.
