Neuro Linguistic Programming. I've had it pitched to me by a practitioner as a self-help tool, to remodel the brain and its habits, but it came across really culty and creepy. Also used, as in Leverage, in theory, as a way to manipulate people into doing things without them consciously realising it.

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

You'll notice when Sophie was doing it, she'd use words like "sugar" and "squeeze" and associate them with gestures that she'd then use on Eliot which would then make him do that thing with her tea.
I love them together, in a non-shippy way. Of course, the S2 gag reel had him flipping his tongue at her, which was just freaky.
Still, they went further with the OT3 teasing.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

It was funnier because he did it when she wasn't looking at him, then she noticed and did it back at him, and that made him lean back and laugh and look embarrassed.

Memphis Beat: Sepinwall and Feinberg did not like the show. Apparently, what the clips don't tell you is that there is a whole lot of Elvis worship (and impersonation) in the pilot episode.
I like Elvis as much as the next person, but I can't deal with it in a tv show.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I read about the Elvis bit when I was introduced to the show. I think they were saying it wasn't Cop Rock but Jason Lee's character likes Elvis and sings some songs. I'm hoping it's a character quirk (which is pretty funny) and it doesn't happen every episode. Otherwise Cop Rock comes back into play. Sad to hear that opinion is it's not a good show. I'm going to give it a chance tonight.
Also Memphis and music--there was going to be some Elvis.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Elvis and Sun records permeate Memphis the way Hollywood does here. Here, you walk into a crappy taco place miles from a studio, and it still has murals of Marilyn and James Dean on the walls. There, it's Elvis.

There's also a candlelight vigil of Elvis worshippers at Graceland every summer. I half expect that one of these years the gates will open up and he'll come striding out like Gozer at the end of Ghostbusters
