And he was OTT on the gruffness, too.
He tends to be OTT, doesn't he?
And I loved that they took down Nancy frelling Grace, whom I loathe.
Weird, as TNT was promoting her new book in conjunction with, I don't know, Dark Blue ?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I can't believe they're so mean to Parker...
Okay, I think it's funny, but they don't even hesitate. And she's so...well, not fragile, but alternately assembled.
I think that was the best part of the ep.
Well, that and Hardison's hair.

I kind of love this! Because he's not being realistic, he's being what the mark expects him to be. She would expect a general to be like... well, like a gruff general from a movie.

The teasing Parker part(s).

Art Crawl!!!
I loved the Parker teasing. . . and Hardison was just excellent.
And just they way that the gang rolled with the pumches to get to the outcome they wanted when things kept falling apart.

Other things I loved from last night's Leverage (I was thinking about it on the drive in):
Parker's line about liking it when they switched jobs, and her having to take the gas mask off to say it.
How they make clear that they have all been teaching each other things, and doing it as part of the story instead of just exposition--Hardison has been teaching Eliot computers, Eliot has been teaching Parker to fight, etc.
The little Parker as Parker moments that snuck through the con--her hugging Maggie, her pulling at the neck of that ridiculous bow while Maggie was looking at Hardison.

yes, and I loved Eliot making the snarky cracks and then saying "it's no so funny on the other end, is it?"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Looks like Saving Grace isn't long for this world, and it's partly the studio's decision.

Yeah, that was totally fabulous. It's funny, because their ability to function in each others' roles furthers their chemistry as a team. And yet, they remember their history, they know there is risk in their connections.
