I liked that Gus got to be lead investigator.
But he didn't, really. He just got to state his suspicions, and initiated the red herring exorcism. Shawn still took the lead in all the discussions with other people. That's what I found disappointing.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

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

Our wings are not tired.
Did I mention my LOVE of Hardison's "Handcuffs. Y'all nasty"
Finally watched this week's Leverage. Loved so much. It may be my favorite episode so far. The dueling crews were a complete delight.

I just watched a Doctor Who (City of Death) that has the same grift as this last episode of Leverage. If only they made one Whovian ref. I mean, another one. If they realised that one.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I literally gasped and put my hand over my mouth.

Aimee, I gasped too.
I'm loving Peggy this episode.

“Not dead yet!”
Anyone else left quite as thrown by the last fifteen or so minutes as I was? I think if last week was all about the subtext and metaphor, this week was a series of on edge, uncomfortable moments.
And God, but that last shot of Betty and Don was just heartbreakingly beautiful. And I couldn't help but wonder what prompted that gesture on his part-- does he really think, after seeing Roger and Jane, that Roger's really happy and he wants that? Or is it a case of for that one brief moment appreciating what he has with Betty?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I literally gasped and put my hand over my mouth.
My mouth was open the entire time Roger sang. The ENTIRE time. I was just so put off.
I thought Don wanted to talk to Betty about what Jane said, and perhaps instead of a conversation, he just held her. I also think that Betty understood why Don wasn't all the excited about going to the event and wanted to leave early. I think she got a picture of how odious his coworkers can be. I think that moment wrapped up a lot of stuff.
