I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

Thrive to spite them

I loved the episode but I got confused about something.

I thought the picture they showed on the monitors was different than the one the one that was forged in multiples. But maybe I was paying too much attention to Hardison and Parker and then Eliot/

Mmmmmm Eliot.

I did like Hardison and Sophie in the van when was exasperated because no one seems to know what he does or how important it was. also not clear as to why Chaos wanted to kill Sophie just on his own. I know he gave a reason but it seemed ... lame.

But the episode was lots of fun.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

also not clear as to why Chaos wanted to kill Sophie just on his own. I know he gave a reason but it seemed ... lame.

He was planning on double-crossing Wossname, and he knew that Sophie would get in the way of that.

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

Yeah, he thought Sophie would mess up the con, and there'd be nothing for him to steal from his boss.

I didn't think that he thought that Sophie would mess up the con, but that he wouldn't be able to double cross her.

Sad news. Griffin Dunne's dad Dominick passed away. That family had a hella strange bit of tragedy in their day.

He wouldn't have needed to double cross her because she wasn't involved yet. The bomb happens before they even plan the threat, before Alter!Nate knows about Sophie, even. I think he just wanted to take out a potential local threat.

Of course, this means I have to watch it again...oh, the agony.

didn't he see her when he was coming out of the elevator? That was before the bomb wasn't it?

You're right--it had to be, otherwise the fakeout that he'd tried to kill her wouldn't work.

Now I get what you meant! He didn't want her on the Alter!Leverage team, because he couldn't doublecross her there. I thought you meant the outwitting of the whole Leverage team.

Man, all those tensions set up on the Royal Pains finale failed to actually be tense for me. The father-scam was both too out-of-the-blue as well as projected, and who cares about Jill? Glad the husband is gone, because he made for too many scenes with her and no one I actually cared about.

What looks like a flashback pic from an upcoming Psych episode. Doesn't give any plot spoilers away, but looks like a hell of a moment. Awesome hair and costume there. Can't wait to see and hear the it.
