Leverage: The Tap-Out Job

[switch842]

I need screencaps NOW so I can icon that moment. Thank you Hardison. :-)

Anyway, great episode. Loved all the little Eliot bits we got. The little peak into his psyche was just excellent.

So, I'm still a little confused on the whole how they get clients thing. Did this guy go to Portland? Call and get the gang there, then meet in person? But really, meh. I don't care. LOL

Some really lovely Eliot/Sophie moments, too. I don't know why, but I do just love those two so much.

Hubby called the twist on Hardison being the online bookies. Good call, there.

Nice resolution. Getting the family the gym as payment. Sounds like they'll turn things around.

The chicken fried steak running gag was pretty funny, too. :-)

I loved Hardison's line there. Maybe I could just do a text icon...

Eliot wore a t-shirt I must have now. What did it say? "The Sweet Science" I'll have to watch again to be sure. Also, how many different hairstyles did the man sport this episode?

The hollowed out and beheaded monkey stuffed animal used as a driver cozy was typically Parker. But then, I'd be willing to take up golf just to have those.

Yeah, I think that's what Eliot's t-shirt said. Then it had the Eveready (?) logo. Whatever that boxing glove company is.

The golf scene was awesome. Though I think the golf club covers were more Nate. The puppetry was all Parker, though. LOL

It says "THE SWEET SCIENCE" and then "EVERLAST" which is a UFC/MMA sponsor if I remember my cousin's ranting correctly. And I know it well (the shirt) because I had to explain it to about 15 people when Chris did an interview in it pre-season cuz they didn't know what the "sweet science" referred to. Lemme know if ya want me to dig out the links again.

Yeah I love that shirt...not sure I'm loving the yellow...but that is an awesome shirt.

Everlast! Thank you. I knew it was something like that. But all I could think of was the battery! LOL Not quite the same thing. Though Eliot does keep going and going and going... ;-)

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

No problem...happy to help! He wears the gloves at some point too. Yes he does keep going and going and going. Amazing the punishment he takes...especially considering the other fighter isn't in on the con so he does have to take the punishment.

Loved this episode!

So, what you're saying is that that t-shirt is Chris's own personal shirt?

So, I could possible get the shirt from him in trade for sex. Good to know.

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

I don't know if it's Chris's shirt...just that I know he wore it during an interview...which he may very well have done between takes.

When I get back from our morning plans...I'll look for a) the interview and b) the shirt on-line because I'm pretty sure I can find both. I'm not sure I can find the exact shirt, but probably one pretty close.

Hahaha that's what you want in exchange for sex?

Hahaha that's what you want in exchange for sex?

Short answer = yes.
Long answer = 1) it would have to be sex with HIM, 2) it would have to be HIS shirt (not just look like his shirt), and 3) it would have to have been laundered, then worn long enough to smell like him but not reek of sweat.

Honestly, I'm a pretty cheap date.

Pretty specific for a girl who says "he's not my type".....remember that conversation?

[trulybloom.livejournal.com]

Oh, I do remember that conversation, very clearly. And, it's still true. He's not my type and I'm sure I'm not his. I can't imagine any universe in which the two of us would ever even know each other.

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

Okay so pretty sure this was done between takes...but yeah he is wearing it. http://www.kgw.com/news-local/stories/kgw_050709_news_leverage_filming_portland.105a807.html

And here's where you can buy/get whatever the actual shirt:

Does that help?

[trulybloom.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it does look like it was done between takes - that looks like the gym he's sitting in. I like the part about Baskin Robbins!

Thanks for the link to the shirt. Still would prefer to have the one he actually wore! ;-)

Totally OT to this post but too tired to go find your other post...but I just got this:

Ah, OK. That makes sense. Kind of disappointing, but understandable.

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

*nods* Exactly what I thought and at least this time it was his decision and it was because he wasn't happy.

[shanachie-quill.livejournal.com]

D'oh sorry...the link is CK explaining why the single wasn't released.

I knew there was something I needed to watch last night and leverage was it; hopefully be able to see eps.

[switch842.livejournal.com]

Check out the TNT website. They might be up there.

[suebsg9.livejournal.com]

ah didn't think of that will have to check it out. thanks :)
