Sophie's my least favourite. She's
How much of that is because of the Nate/Sophie relationship? Because's that's always seemed to me the weakest part of the set-up, so I wonder if forcing it has negative effects on their characters more generally.

Hmmm. I see what you're saying about Nate, but those are the characters I like. It's one of the reasons I like Mad Men. Everyone is so thoroughly broken. And I agree about Sophie.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I think it's mostly that I feel like I've seen Nate before, and Sophie, but I haven't really seen the others, or at least not as often.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm assuming Sophie is like that, but it's true that the only time the parts of her personality that I don't like come up is when she's nagging Nate because of their relationship. Or maybe she'd nag any of the team members to fix them. She probably would. But it would probably go better, and it just hasn't come up.

Oh, something RL I remembered because The Stork Job just started: the wound on CK's face at the start of this episode is real--he messed himself up playing football on concrete in cowboy boots. And healed up lightning fast. Paid off with a great one-liner and a hell of a visual.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Cashmere! Either Kid1 or Kid2 just called me on your cell, or maybe your purse did.
I think that was my ass. I stuck my phone in my pocket.

I *knew* Cashmere was butt-dialing!

Just checked my call history. It WAS an ass call.

Hee! I was wondering about that too.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
No, really.
3M's nuclear-grade Performance Plus duct tape is serious about holding your business together in the harshest of conditions.
What makes it nuclear grade, you ask?
3M Performance Plus Duct Tape 8979N is tested by an independent laboratory to insure that it meets the low leachable halogen and sulfur levels required by nuclear regulating agencies.
Honestly, we're not sure just how how much you'll need that extra protection (or what do I know, maybe you do), but as big fans of MacGyver-style hacking, we're not ones to look the other way when we spot some serious duct tape. The 3M Performance Plus duct tape will set you back $14 at Amazon.
