"Neal Plays The Tycoon To Lure In His Victims, And Then Cons Them Out Of Thousands Of Dollars."

Sophie: We can't leave. The Crown is still in the museum.

Eliot: No, Sophie. We gotta get you to safety.

Sophie: No. We know Wilde wants to take me down, but he wants to humiliate me by putting me in prison without the Crown ever having left the museum.

Parker: But if we find the Crown...

Sophie: We put it back. We turn Wilde's humiliation back on himself.

Eliot: Mm-hmm. Does anybody else think this sounds like a trap?

Harry: I do. I hate this idea. Sophie, let's go home. Let's regroup. Let's live to fight Wilde another day.

Sophie: No. We are taking Arthur Wilde down today.

L:R S2E13 The Crowning Achievement Job

Leverage | The Big Bang Job

I've probably watched too much Leverage, because a man in campus cop uniform came in to ask questions about our box office safe today and my boss let him in and gave him all the info he wanted, no questions asked, and all I could think is that we are horrifically easy to con

first rule of fandom is everything goes back to destiel

second rule of fandom is everything goes back to kirk/spock

third rule of fandom is everything goes back to holmes & watson

fourth rule of fandom is everything goes back to achilles & patroclus

I hope fifteen or twenty years after redemption ends we get another reboot of leverage in which Breanna leads a completely new crew who only ever heard of the original leverage team as heros of legends.

And they tell stories of them like they are mythical figures.

They tell stories of Nate Ford and Sophie Devereaux, how they chased each other across the world before joining sides in the middle to bring together the first leverage team. (They have the Old Nate painting in the current headquarters. Everyone in the new team knows without a doubt that is Leverage Founder Nathan Ford.)

They tell stories of Alec Hardison, Eliot Spencer and THE Parker, the trio who can make anything happen, who made this organisation into what it is now, the patron saints of every leverage team. If a job goes really sideways, they will come to save you, you don't even have to call them. They know.

(The stories range from mildly simplified to wildly inaccurate. Breanna finds this whole mystification fascinating to see, she even kinda gets it on some level, but it's also really weeeiiird. that's just his brother and his insane partners. She just gifted them matching plushies the other day. (She does know where they live and how to reach out to them but she never ever in no way would ever call them for a job. She can do this without them dammit) (but of course they'd still come out once or twice in every season sorry breanna i need my cameos dammit))

I realize there are some jobs that are too big for Leverage (eg taking down a predatory big-box stores a la Walmart), but surely there's something they can do about the state of the U.S. Supreme Court

you ever think about how harry was legitimately kidnapped by a strange group of thieves and then he just… stayed??? he was kidnapped by CRIMINALS and just sat there and decided, I think I find crime fun and I want a found family and just DECIDED TO ROLL WITH IT AND STAYED WITH THEM??? A GROUP OF STRANGERS THAT ROUTINELY BREAK THE LAW FOR FUN???

Halt and Will reuniting.

Scene requested by @/pechoraflow :] We ended Ranger Gathering with Will being taken to Skandia, so that's a perfect way to start drawing again, I think x]

i think something truly insane would happen if you put the leverage ot3 in an episode of game changer
