i feel like so many people misunderstand redemption arcs. they’re not about forgiving past actions. they’re not about softening previous behavior. redemption arcs are about realizing past behavior was heinous and resolving to be better, do better. that’s why so many redemption arcs fall apart upon close scrutiny.

Never done thinking about The Rashomon Job. Because ok, I think that, on balance, we can assume Eliot and Sophie spent a not insignificant amount of time at that museum gala flirting aggressively with each other (Nate's careful excision of this from his reconstructed version notwithstanding).
We also know that Sophie clearly did not remember/recognise Eliot until he pantomimed his behaviour and accent that night. This tracks for Sophie; she's not a faces person. She notices actions, tones, accents, and above all she notices physical signifiers of social relationships (class, professional, personal etc.). She can be pretty confident, from her own grifting experience, that that's all most other people notice too.
Eliot, on the other hand, is absolutely a faces person. It's something of a recurring bit. There's at least one occasion where he IDs a guy he saw for three seconds. He's a hypervigilant observer with a detailed and well-trained memory ("it's a very distinctive..."). That's part of what gives him an edge (and also must make the occasions where he briefly becomes famous deeply stressful).
(The bit in the opening episode of Redemption S3, were they walk into a party and Sophie notices the decor and dress and Eliot notices all the armed and dangerous security is such a good example of their respective ways of seeing the world.)
Taking all this into consideration, I think we can fairly happily imagine the following: that Eliot Spencer walked into a theatre in LA with an alcohol-soaked insurance investigator, an annoying hacker, and a disconcertingly odd super-thief, and was absolutely baffled to find someone he recognised from that deeply frustrating attempt to steal the dagger of Aqu'abi doing the world's worst Lady Macbeth.
And then she clearly hasn't recognised him, and he's not going to bring it up, because it's just a one time job, and also there's her whole thing with Nate happening right in front of his salad. And then eventually it becomes "wait, this is gold", and he's just sitting on this reveal until that night in the bar.
#or even better#hes absolutely horrified#bc they were all over each other#like ALL over each other that night#youll notice that neither of them says shit about this ever again#this is also the one time he calls her babe and that will forever live rent free in my head#but i digress#eliot has to spin that story so hard bc Nate is Right There#idk man I'll never be over the mystery relationship of sophie and eliot#eliot spencer#sophie devereaux#leverage#leverage redemption

i really could write an essay on how shit is that we’ve completely abandoned the monster-of-the-week episode format even when rebooting shows that relied on it to replace them with grimdark edgy plotlines where nothing feels good or accomplished at the end of the day

You know what i was thinking about making a post about this anyway so this is the perfect opportunity. I really appreciate that they writers are keeping Nate "in the show" in this way. After Sophie initially dealing with her grief in lev:red s1, they could've kept mentions of him to a minimum. With all the drama going on irl, I wouldn't blame them. But they bring him up almost once an episode in some way. He still feels really present and important to the team, and even Harry and Breanna get a chance to reflect on him even tho they never even knew him.
But thats what you do when you're in a tight knit family and an important person in that family passes away. You talk about them. You say things like, oh he would've loved that, or just mention them in conversation.
Nate brought them together and put them on this mission to help people and thats so important. He's still a part of all of them, hence that whole legacy thing I suppose. And the writing really reflects that, which i appreciate greatly.
Nate Ford + legacy

so i haven't gone into the tag since watching the episode yet but my own personal read on the end of the con is that parker was lying when she said it was all part of her plan.
yes, i believe she engineered the first set of complications. yes, i believe she's an incredible mastermind. yes, i believe that once she'd decided that she wasn't killing this man, she had all the pieces set up for herself.
but the way it was acted, it seemed (once again, to me) as if parker very legitimately was overcompensating when she explained it had all been in the plan. because this is a con that plays specifically into her weakness. by design. because this is a weak point for parker. she's been struggling with this from day one.
and it also seemed as if eliot and sophie - in that last exchange - agreed that they'd let parker get away with that. they decide that they're satisfied with where she's at, that she solved this for herself and that's good enough for them, so they look at each other and they say, "i never doubted her," and that's, really, good enough.
#love this#making Parker Very Good but not Perfect is important#even as long as she's been doing this#also comparing this to the grand complication job#where shes three steps ahead the whole time#but here shes really going up against herself#so its not quite the same#anywho good point op#leverage redemption#parker#the side job
