Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I already knew, but why did they have to say so in their promo before the final segment?

I would have been pissed if I hadn't known.

He's allowed to find more than one woman sexy, isn't he?

I was afraid they were going to be playing the "Isn't Jeri Ryan sexy?" thing all night, which they didn't, thankfully.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I knew that there was something up with Jeri's character, it was so out of character. I like that they didn't bring back Sophie, but they ackowledged that they needed a grifter.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I knew something was up when she first appeared. Her interaction between Nate and the daughter reminded me of Sophie in the Nigerian Job.

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

Nate did give a look when she stroked the daughter's arm, but I thought the daughter knew she wasn't a lawyer, not that the daughter didn't know her at all.

Good on her coming up with a back story that fooled Hardison.

Well, he wasn't really looking that hard, he wasn't expecting a cover.

I expect him to be blindingly thorough.

Or, well, perfect.

It's not like he's getting any. He can't be putting all his energy into World of Warcraft, can he?

I liked this ep--not as much as the last two, because there wasn't as much character interaction and I guessed the heir thing too early (although I did get distracted from it). It is nice to see Nate fooled, even if he worked the heir thing out. I did wonder about the blue irises, but I figured she/they knew something I didn't. Or I'd heard wrong. I totally didn't see the colourblind thing coming.

I didn't think anything of the "blue irises" thing, I just thought that was the name of the flower. I think that the questioning would have been more effective if his tie had been red or green, because most people understand that.

Do women get that kind of colourblindness? I'm glad he pointed out how rare it was in women, because I was going to call shenanigans, until I realised the rarity helped his point.

Okay, from googling, I think the chances of having a red-green colourblind matchup might have been too rare. They don't even give a percentage of women affected on Wikipedia, whereas .03% of women have blue-yellow.

Right, the science would have been a little shakier, but if the question had related to red-green colorblindness, people would have figured out what was going on. Maybe it's just me, but I like it when there are little clues to the con so that I can figure it out myself.

I figured it out from the mistaken identity at the beginning, so there was more than one path to the goal. I knew he was mistaking someone for their mother, and the episode was called Lost Heir, so I figured it was his kid.
