I find myself wishing they could scrap the premise and just have Eliza play Taffy all the time and pull off heists each week. That show I could be unreservedly eager to watch.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Now I'm trying to imagine Leverage with Taffy as Sophie. She can't be Parker, no matter what skills she's got.
So, was he just waiting for Echo to use her phone? If so, did he know that she was in a situation where it would endanger her life rather than just piss off the client?
Interesting. He may have been the antiquities guy's other client, but if Taffy had just chased the guy down, what then?
Maybe he's been haunting the phone lines just waiting for the first call.

I liked it. I didn't like the birth scene at the beginning -- anvils, as Steph said, and also? Who pays half a zillion dollars for a freakin' midwife? WTF?
Also, was the art-lovin' thief whasshisname from Buffy and Firefly? You know, philosophical vamp/old Browncoat who is delivered in a coffin guy?

that was my thought, as well.

Jonathan Woodward? no, it wasn't him.

yeah, I couldn't figure out why anyone would pay for an active as a midwife. I mean a GREAT stretch would be some dot commer whose spouse wanted the perfect midwife, but couldn't find one, so they paid for an active.
So, how much do we think that this costs? half a millon? a million?

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
The birth thing really made no sense. Vortex, according to Joss it's about a million. I can't remember if he said almost a million or just over.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Was Topher's confidante (sorry, can't remember her name) the same actress as Agent Lee on NCIS*? For a little while I thought she was going to turn out to be the remote wiper, but maybe they just wanted to show some more human interaction for Topher.
Yes, it was, and I immediately thought she was a mole as a result. I still think she could be working with Alpha.

Was she ever called by name in that scene? Because when I was watching it I was assuming it was the real her before she became an active.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I thought maybe the midwife was delivering a secret baby.

I was wondering that, too, but then it did that "reverse memories" thing and she was in the machine.
