#leverage finale

[mimi123meg]

I just watched the finale of leverage in my rewatch with my bf and omfg that episode goes so hard. Like unironically probably one of the best last episodes of tv in my opinion.

The callbacks to the very first episode? Immaculate. Breathtaking. Stunning.

Nate's acting in the holding room? Beautiful, Sophie did a good job with this one.

The fake out of Sophie's real name? Honestly the best thing about her character.

The culmination of Nate having trained Eliot, hardison and Parker to take over leverage? So well done. Beautiful. I like it, Picasso

Last but certainly not least, the ot3 being shown throughout the episode is everything to me. Eliot dying in Parker and hardisons arms, hardisons first question being "did Eliot make it?" And Eliot comforting him before all three of them die. Eliot telling Nate that he did need something and looking over at Parker and hardison, and saying that thanks to him he doesn't need to keep searching (I'm screaming). I just love this show so much and thjs episode does not disappoint as a series finale.

Leverage + How To Tell If You're In A Raymond Chandler Story

[aardvaark]

in Leverage, in the background of some scenes you can see ads for or clips of another Dean Devlin production, The Librarian movie series. seems like The Librarian movies exist in the Leverage universe. BUT! at the end of the first david job, sophie’s storage unit contains the Judas Chalice, which is the titular arrifact in "The Librarian: Curse of the Judas Chalice". it’s not an actual artifact irl. so there’s kinda 2 possibilities in my head at the moment:

sophie stole the prop, and considers it so precious that it’s stored amongst her stash of very real, very old artifacts. she’s like the worlds biggest Librarian fan.

the plot of The Librarian movies & tv show are real in the Leverage universe, and the movies are dramatic retellings of real events. sophie owns stolen cursed artifacts because of course she does.

(notably, sophie is seen holding & blowing into the judas chalice right after admitting that she has the real second david… you know, her big betrayal? the reveal of her judas kiss? etc etc)

Sending the Kids Off to Fight Crime With Even More Crime

Leverage (2008-2012)

The Juror #6 Job

[eg515]

don't you just love it when a series has a good ending that takes care of all of its characters, shows how their futures will look like, ties up all loose ends, reminisces about old times, references important moments from before, and brings back elements of the very first episode, giving a nice frame to the whole series?

[spirit-pyrite]

Episode one of seasons two of leverage is about four criminals, that Nate trained in the art of good-guy crime, coming back into his life all at once with the drive and motivation of hyper competent sheepdogs. They are knocking him the fuck out they are eating all his food they are installing their own tech they are buying his building they are knocking down his walls. I’m convinced the actual grift of the episode is convincing this bitch to set up their little games for them. And now the gangs back together <3

Whump Writer Things I Guess

It's so weird being hit upside the head with normal. Like, I was watching a show with a friend, and over the course of the season finale, the main character gets injured. I don't really know how, I was very surprised at it in all honesty, but the man is bleeding rather profusely, DOES NOT FREAKING TELL ANYONE, and then gets captured by the enemy and chained up, only to then collapse the second his friends are out of sight, and I was just over here giggling and clapping my hands, (in true whump writer style) and going "oh goody! it's always better when they're injured!"

And my friend, my poor friend, who was just getting up to deal with his cat or smth, stops, freezes, and turns to me with this very concerned expression on his face like "what mad-woman have I allowed in my home, and where's the snarky li'l shit from earlier?"

And unlike with my siblings, I couldn't just say "I write whump" and have that be a catch all for everything. No; I had to actually explain myself!

It's so weird to realize again that a world exists, outside the internet, where seeing your blorbos in pain doesn't bring some small amount of delight but actually upsets people. Like, how dull! Those poor people! But also poor me for being seen like a psycho because I enjoy it a bit

[secretsoftheuniverse1987]

a lot of content from the new episode that I will be adding to my eliot thesis but what it really boils down to is nobody is doing fealty in the modern day quite like that man
