[VIOLENT SNEEZE] Mack: Fuck’s sake! You n’ your fucking plants! Bruno: Are you allergic to oxygen now?
Mack: It’s not the bloody oxygen I’m allergic to. Kobe: Aren’t we all technically allergic to oxygen? Mack: Boy-.. what.
Kobe: I’m pretty sure it messes with your cells n’ causes aging. Bruno: You mean like.. oxidative stress? Mack: Christ, that sounds like a conspiracy theory.
Bruno: It’s a scientific theory. Kobe: Alright, nerd; some of us didn’t ace biology. Ivan: Shh! Holy shit, listen…
Chief Commissioner Ford was arrested earlier today following reports of his involvement with several high-profile gang members. Rumours first began circulating after a damning article was featured in the San Myshuno Gazette just before the holidays; Ford blasted the piece as hearsay at the time, disregarding it as a desperate publicity stunt from a declining publication. Deputy Commissioner Gomez declined a press conference at this time, though we’re told an investigation is already under way.
It’s thought that among other unscrupulous activities, Ford may be implicated in the cover up of an underground trafficking ring. In his annual statement last year, he appeared adamant that dismantling and disrupting organised crime was a key priority of his for the city and surrounding areas.
Bruno: I doubt it’ll be long ‘til we’re summoned; they won’t want anyone turning on them as a get out. Ivan: Man.. I don’t wanna deal with Artie anymore, my nerves can’t take it. Mack: The lad’s right, you should ignore him.
Bruno: He’s not someone to be ignored. Would you rather he come here? Kobe: Hell no! Bruno: Exactly.
Courtney: Oh-… Oscar: [cackles] Fucker! I hope his lawyer’s fucking dogshit. Courtney: I’m not so sure we should be amused right now..?
Oscar: Karma, Cookie.. karma. Courtney: Yeah, but what does this mean for you; us? Oscar: Ask me later. I’ve waited way too long not to enjoy the shit outta this moment.

Sophie grifting: hot duchess. seductive investor. mysterious businesswoman.
Eliot grifting: ridiculously competent chef. hot athlete (any sport). heartthrob country musician.
Hardison grifting: overly-confident criminal. assertive FBI agent. heartthrob classical musician.
Nathan Ford grifting: goddamn piece of shit oily slimy scumbag ambulance-chaser untrustworthy con artist with a stupid fucking voice and a silly hat
the show is not doing Nate any favors in the likeability or attractiveness departments here
(Bonus mention: Parker grifting: autism creature)

the way the leverage team make a mess of nate’s apartment on multiple occasions is so much funnier when you consider that none of them are particularly messy people. in the pilot, hardison has a very nice apartment that he is clearly proud of & has kept very tidy. parker’s warehouse is almost disturbingly neat, her tools and weapons are kept clean & shiny and are laid out in perfect rows, her bed is made, her clothes and rappelling gear is hung up. eliot likes things done properly and certainly at least cares for his car’s cleanliness. idk about sophie, but she would at least know how to act neat for a grift, and she’d be aware of how a guest to supposed to treat their host’s home.
but they all put unwashed dishes in nate’s sink, do spur of the moment renovations, set up new gear in his living room, leave clothes/costumes, plans & random items strewn about the place, and even tear up his stuff without fixing it. i love it. his apartment is their playground. they half live here now. nate just needs to chill out and let them saw into his walls, geez calm downnnn. i know nate’s eye was twitching when he saw that parker’s warehouse was so perfect meanwhile there’s probably 5 bowls of unfinished cereal hidden in his house like a damn look-and-find puzzle

I forgot how hilarious The Juror #6 job is. The episode opens with Nate trying to socialize his crime daughter by having her do civil service. "There is not some evil conspiracy lurking behind the curtain of every routine civic activity." *four minutes later* "Uh, apparently there is an evil conspiracy lurking behind the curtain of every routine civic activity." Brent Spiner plays a hippie spiritualist pharmacist. We have to get Parker from thinking hiding knives in food is a good prank to having her charm an entire room of people. The kids leave for the day and Nate and Sophie line up at the door; they hand Hardison his briefcase, Parker her sacked lunch, and they present Eliot with the exciting news that today is the day he is going to be hit with a car.

My favourite Parker episode has always been The Inside Job, y'know why? It's not just what Parker does, but rather what the others do FOR Parker.
Parker has 4 safe houses in the city, but Nate and Sophie know her well enough to know where she actually stays when she's away from the team
Parker's security code. Do you understand the level of trust someone like Parker will have to have to use their name as her security code? To the place that's her own personal sanctuary? Sophie EARNED that level of trust.
'The Sterenko can't be cracked-' 'Can you do it?' 'Nate, it can't be-' 'For Parker. Can you do it for Parker?'
This. Just this.
'I made her. I trained her, and I released her into the world.' 'She was broken! She needed you!'
This stood out so loud to me, because it's not Hardison or Sophie (the more emotionally intelligent ones of the team) saying it. Because it's NATE. It's Nate, the man who couldn't say I Love You to Sophie for so long. The man who got so caught up in his son's death that every job involving kids or medical malpractice he nearly went out of line. NATE, who pushes and pushes and is ruthless and so cold at times.
It's Nate protesting for Parker, standing up FOR Parker, and y'know why? Because Parker doesn't know what she got deprived of. Parker doesn't feel that loss because you can't grieve something you aren't even aware you could've had. But Nate does. Nate saw her injustice and loss of childhood and spoke up, KNOWING she'll never know about him defending her.
'Hardison I screwed up.' 'We're already here mama.'
Do you understand the level of trust and vulnerability it requires for her to say those words? She's never gotten anyone's help after a screwup, she's had to take care of herself on her own. And there's Hardison, right there, not upset, not angry, not disappointed. A right straight - I'm here and we'll get you out.
'Let's get our girl home.'
Do I even need to say anything.
'It's not what we do, we don't get involved!' 'No, that's what YOU do!'
Parker is not Archie Leach's protege anymore. She's Parker. She's the greatest thief in the world. She's the one person to get the entire Leverage Inc breathing down your neck to save her. She has a family who got her back. She has a life and friends and people who may not understand her always but will always support her and be there for her, no matter what, without changing any aspect of her or forcing her to change either. And she saves people, because that's what they do.
'It's your play Parker.'
The explicit trust Nate displays in her. For someone like Nate with control issues and need to be the guy calling the shots, this is practically an all out notice saying 'she's my people, she's my family, I trust her with my life, more than that I trust her with my family and our jobs.'
'No.' 'What do you mean no? This isn't time for crazy, Parker! Come on!' 'No! I need to go back. I need to put the vial back.'
Do you understand what it feels to have someone like Parker, who is practically a ghost and the prospect of getting stuck somewhere is unthinkable, to refuse an escape route? And that too because she wants to help people and not be used to hurt them? In the face of someone who brought her up to only steal? Now that's growth.
Now this is a callback, but when Sophie and Nate first enter her safehouse, Sophie says something that foreshadows the ending. She says 'Look at this. It's methodical. This could be one of your plans, Nate.'
This is a personal choice, but god it's so good when authors and writers and creators give you hints and foreshadow and reward your intuition at the end, rather than changing endings for shock value. Because Hardison isn't ruthless, Eliot isn't striving for control, and Sophie is dramatic, not clinical. None of it would have been worth it unless it went to Parker, which it did.
Man, this fucking show I swear.

Transcript:
Wyatt: Morning, Chief. Spencer: You’re a little lacking in the stealth department. Wyatt: Well, I wouldn’t want to give someone your age a fright.
Spencer: What the hell are you doing here? Wyatt: Carpooling? Spencer: …
Wyatt: No? Alright… I’ll cut to the chase. Have you put a stop to anything interesting lately? Spencer: Define interesting. Wyatt: Don’t be coy… Whistle-blowers, overzealous agents, informants; the usual.
Spencer: Do you really think I have time to get involved in any of your nonsense without being called upon? Wyatt: If it keeps your secret safe, sure. Spencer: [scoffs]
Wyatt: Nothing? Spencer: The last time I spoke to your father, he kicked up a fuss about Ames again, she’s since been transferred; and that was months ago. That’s it. I’m not sure why you’re digging around.
Wyatt: Because I’m not convinced. Spencer: If you intend to threaten her, I suggest you think again. Mishaps involving officers aren’t easily brushed under the rug. Wyatt: It’s a shame I don’t take orders from you.
Spencer: I doubt your father would be pleased to know you’re here. Wyatt: Oh, he’d be furious; but you won’t tell him. Spencer: I-…
Wyatt: I doubt he’d be pleased to find out you’ve struck up a deal with Charlie. Spencer: … Wyatt: Hm?
Spencer: Get out of my car. Wyatt: All you had to do was ask, Chief. Spencer: Goodbye, Wyatt.
Spencer: [sighs] Twat.
