Awww, Nate! So glad you left that whiskey on the bar. I'm so happy to see these guys all back together!

I'm glad that enough time passed that it was believable that Nate had stopped drinking. And I continue to love Hardison - Hinky stuff. Hink. y. :)

That was fun. Parker telling Hardison that people are like locks, very nice.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That part felt a little off to me, actually. I don't think of Parker as having enough understanding of social interactions to come up with something like that. Sophie's character seemed a little off too.
Still very fun though.

Hi Cable Drama thread! Yes, I skipped the first 2400 or so posts.
Leverage! I do indeed love the show, but I was disappointed in the season opener. Why did they have to Tell Me who was a hacker and who was a thief, first they can show me that stuff, second I remembered. I felt they spent too much time explaining the characters and the premise. Again, they don't have to tell me that they are there to right wrongs, they can spend that time showing me.
While I am complaining I will add that the con was disjointed and confusing. The whole show didn't flow as smoothly as it has in the past.
But they are forgiven because my love is pure and I know that they will hit their stride next episode and entertain and delight me the rest of the season.

It was to help people like me who heard a lot of good things about the show, but never got around to checking it out last season.
Sorry. If they'd just run a banner across the bottom with a website on the back-story, that would would have worked just as well for me. Maybe better.

There was a lot of "as we both know, Bob," but that'll probably be gone next week.
I don't think of Parker as having enough understanding of social interactions to come up with something like that.
Sophie gave her the metaphor.

Calli, if it helps new viewers I'm all for it because I'd like for the show to stick around. I don't remember so much of that last year. But they did have flashbacks showing the players in their specialty. I'm guessing it will be more business as usual in the future episodes.
Possibly I was so excited for the new episode that I didn't want anything but all action all the time.
