I liked Breanna's part in the episode, but was thrown with a Halloween episode in July at some level which kept me off kilter.

Just realizing it was a Halloween episode made me like it, to some extent. Most of the season I was thinking everyone’s clothes looked uncomfortably warm to me (probably more because I was roasting than anything else) and having that it’s-fall-on-the-show lightbulb go on was a relief
Overall, though, the episode plots were not as tight as I would prefer. A lot of nice moments but not not so many perfectly satisfying retributions

I thought the Halloween episode was particularly weak, and I haven't watched the one after it yet bcz I was so disappointed.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.
Gunpowder Milkshake was delightful. (Has Paul Giamatti ever played a character you *didn't* want to punch in the face? I think no.)

I don’t remember wanting to punch John Adams in the face, but I can’t rule it out

Sit down John, you fat m*therF*ckstick/. I know I saw Sideways, but I don’t really remember it. I tend to be well disposed to him, because Maria’s brother looks so much like him, and I like Maria’s brother (who does a passable old Shakespeare at the Ren Faire)

Oh, and I am just watching Leverage. Two episodes in. A) they are really strongly implying a thruple, or I have read two much Parker, Hardison Eliot fic? B) what is up with Chris Kane’s hair/wig situation? It is odd.

Thrive to spite them
Sophia while they haven't acknowledged on the show John Rogers has said on Twitter that the OT3 (one true threesome/thruple) is canon.

I didn't know that. Nice!
The hair is pretty distracting.
