I LOVE THEM THE END

[harborshore]

Incoherent reactions while watching ftw.



That's right, they will have Sophie point out to Nate that slapping her ass was unnecessary, even if he was trying to sell a character (can you count how many shows would have just played that moment for laughs and left it at that) and oh yes, Nate will apologize, yes he will. Because she is right and also because she owns him. SOPHIE. ETA: And oh yes, then she will knee him in the balls to retaliate. *___*

Parker jacks the chief car thief's car in order to get his attention. OF COURSE SHE DOES. ♥___♥

And of COURSE she gets Hardison to do the impossible. OF COURSE.

And oh god, Josie, oh, my heart. (I can't decide if I want adorable gen where Parker adopts her and Hardison horrifiedly steps in to help out, or, ah, um. *bites lip* Adorable LONG stories about how they start living together when Josie is a little older AKA less underage and Josie has some sort of hero worship going on and, yes. The latter I'd only want in the hands of a writer I really trust though.)

PARKER BEHIND THE WHEEL. UNF.

OH GOD. *bites nails* Elliot is the damsel in distress AGAIN. Not that it's not good because he's good at getting out of that, but ugh, ugh, I had to pause it to breathe for a bit. This is not good for my heart.

And then he pulls off two rescues. The best part was Hardison and Parker starting to grin when they saw him, because hell yes, they know they'll get out now. And Parker fighting! Poor Hardison, he's never going to get any credit for anything.

"Also I was under water." "I should work on that." Heeee.

Fuck, I really loved this episode. REALLY. Good dialogue, really well-paced for once (sometimes the rhythm of what happens doesn't quite balance right), lots of fantastic character moments, Parker being awesome and a crazy driver (yay continuity!)--really though, the whole Parker-as-a-car-thief thing is incredibly hot. And her selective stealing. &her;

VEEEEE THERE WAS A MOMENT WHERE I ALLOWED MYSELF TO HOPE THAT THE GANG WOULD ADOPT JOSIE AND THEN SHE'D START HELPING OUT ON CONS (WITHOUT ANYONE'S PERMISSION) AND THEN SHE'D BECOME INVALUABLE AND PARKER WOULD TEACH HER ALL ABOUT STEALING THINGS AND JUMPING OFF BUILDINGS AND IT WOULD BE THE MOST ADORABLE OH GOD. MY ~THING FOR UNCONVENTIONAL FAMILIES IS VISIBLE FROM SPACE /o\

THAT IS RIGHT. OH THAT IS THE BEST OF STORIES. YOU SHOULD WRITE FOR THE SHOOOOOOOOW. *__* (I may or may not have a thing for unconventional families AS WELL. See also: half the reason I fucking adore this show.)

Oh my god, I have had no outlet for my Leverage squee, so I just wrote it all in a text file but FUCK IT I AM GOING TO MAKE AN LJ POST FOR IT

This episode was sooo great.

SERIOUSLY, so great. *sighs happily*

This was an EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT episode. I'm so glad I started watching this show. PARKER! Ugh, I love her so much. She and Hardison are my favorites, although there isn't anyone on the team I don't like. Sure, sometimes I want to punch Nate, but with LOVE.

(Also, you are definitely not the only one whose brain went to a questionable place re: Josie.)

(Also also, I need ICONS.)

Punching with love! Yes. He is my least favorite, but I fucking love the rest of them. Elliot! Sophie! (And how great is it to have the sexy lady not be 21 here?) PARKER AND HARDISON! I love all episodes with the two of them doing badass things together.

(Oh good! I was feeling a little, uh, awkward about that.)

(YOU DO. visualwit has some awesome ones!)

But then Sophie goes and gets him right in the nuts and I feel better about life, that the show actually takes care of my occasional desire to kick Nate in the balls itself. :D

(Me too! So I'm glad you said something, because i thought I was the only one.)

(Thanks for the heads-up! I grabbed a couple of nice ones. :D)
