Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I checked a couple other screencap sites, and Hardison is pretty much just a silhouette in all of them.

Does anyone play GTA and watch Leverage? Apparently there was a "hot coffee" joke in the finale that references one of the GTAs. I know the hot coffee line: Eliot says of Maggie "Maybe she just wants hot coffee." when Nate is getting twitchy about the ease with which Eliot gets to go out with her.

But what's the ref? Google just tells me the joke is out there. I can't work out what it is.

And how soon did Maggie know Dr. Sinclair wasn't on the up and up? Because she asked him out pretty quickly. She didn't know about the scam because we see her react to Nate telling her what they really are.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Incidentally, this is one of those moments when I'm both terrified and in awe of What Wiki Knows.

Oh, my. I knew about the minigame, but I had no idea about the coffee ref. Thank you amych, and thank you Wiki. It never would have occurred to me it was enough of a thing to warrant its own page!

I think that when she saw the button cam, she knew something was up.

She sure jumped on that invite quickly. Nate should totally feel a twinge.

The "hot coffee" thing is hysterical, but when does Eliot get the time to play GTA? Hardison I could have seen having that line, but Eliot? NSM.

I can totally see Eliot and Hardison having late night GTA games in the office during their downtime.

Oh, is that what the kids are calling it these days?
