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

The end of LOTR: Return of the King always makes me cry. Haven't I seen it enough times for this reaction to wear off? Answer, obviously: no.

And now, Leverage geekgasm: Timothy Hutton playing Nate Ford dressed as Ellery Queen who was played by Jim Hutton! And Sophie dressed as Irene Adler! ADORE

Right! Too bad they couldn't work in a Nero Wolfe (or, you know, Archie) reference.

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

I don't understand why Eliot or anyone would have seriously considered the idea that Nate had killed that guy. Was I missing some sort of subtext?

I didn't understand that reaction, either, P-C. Nate's the Good Guy, the Honorable Man! Nate doesn't want the bad guys dead, he wants them punished and suffering and, oh yeah, maybe having a chance at redemption and that. Besides, even if he did mean to kill someone, he wouldn't do it on an island with no way off. Even drunk, he's smarter than that.

Although I was yelling at him for wandering over to look at the guy who just got tossed over the balcony, as if no one else was there.

I don't understand why Eliot or anyone would have seriously considered the idea that Nate had killed that guy.

Especially when it was determined that the neck was broken before the fall. That's an Elliot move, not a Nate one. Still, there was much fun to be had in the episode.

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

I don't know why that was not a consideration when they were trying to figure out who killed him. If you take into consideration that the killer had to be someone who knew how and had the strength to snap his neck, that narrows the list considerably.

And why did the detective allow the body to be removed? He knew that the guy was dead and he had a scapegoat, why wouldn't he insist on exposing the murder (unless he was worried that Nate had seen him, but they didn't throw that bit of exposition in there)

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

Pending getting the time off, I should be going to the Leverage writer's room on Friday. Am excite.
