I had the impression that the medicine was entirely made up for telling stories to Interpol purposes.
I agree with this.
It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wow. And huh. Finally caught up on Leverage, and I have no idea how John was only 50/50 on renewal/cancellation a month ago. Did they have a different ending in the can?
Amazing how different Parker looks in red. Amazing how amazing Parker looks in red. Nah, not amazing. In the sense that she usually looks amazing.
Would her and Gillian Jacobs playing sisters be too matchy matchy?

Finally caught up with the Leverage series (sniff!) finale. Loved it. Loved. I loved that even though Nate won, Sterling basically got the last word. I loved that they left two happy couples happy and coupled. And I'm intrigued that Parker is taking Nate's role as the face of the company; I would have thought Hardison. But he's also better less known/behind the scenes.
Also, on a complete tangent, I want to see Beth Riesgraf. in a TV or Movie adaptation of Questionable Comment as Hannelore. Maybe Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Martin?

I mean, right? Parker doesn't have Hanners hangups, but I think Beth R could do and amazing job of them just the same. Quite possibly the only actress I can think of who could pull her off and not make her a total joke, aside from maybe Emma Caulfield back in the day.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I finally watched the final two episodes last night. It was a great finale. The beginning of it reminded me a little of "The Shroud of Rahmon".

I'm guessing that they would have been pulled back in, blackmailed, or given a job they couldn't ignore, but I'm almost glad it did end, because it was a great ending. I'd like to think that they ended up with some other people in the group eventually because it seems that just the three of them pulling off the cons might be difficult.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
This [link] came from elsewhere on b.org but omg, Apollo Robbins who taught most of Leverage everything they know about grift. This kind of story is fascinating and I suspect I will never be clever enough to know or watch it all. But, damn, I wish I were.
