Parker: What are they in for?

Eliot: This isn’t jail.

Parker: So, they can leave?

Eliot: Well, no-

One thing I do really like about Redemption is that they offically named the "stand so the mark can see us as they're arrested" thing. It's the Gloat. I'm almost certain it didn't have a formal name in the original, not one spoken in the show.

But we do love the gloats.

As always, please tag me if you decide to write it.

So as you are aware, if you follow my page, I am a fan of both Psych and Leverage. When I was trying to sleep last night I couldn’t help but think that Parker and Shawn have some similarities and what if they were family members?

I’m thinking Shawn’s uncle probably had a kid that was given up for adoption where she ended up with that family that I refuse to talk about and no one knew she existed until the Leverage team had a client in Santa Barbara.

Parker, breaking into a building solo from the roof and heading straight to a security computer.

Nate, on an old headphone + mic set, not his usual earbuds, with projections lighting up his face.

Hardison, breaking into some upper level door

Sophie, on stage, in something medieval, doing TERRIBLE (our first clue as to what's really going on, too).

Eliot, being a cocky fighter (as always, but still).

The whole thing over before you even have time to think... except that it isn't.

The five of them in a circle as viewed from above.

The ending of a couple mourning a lost child, while Leverage gathers on the other side of the room, one person in a chair doing most of the talking.

Hot damn they did a good job

Only your vote can determine which of these autistic girlies will move on to the next round.

The Plotbunny Job

Leverage team has to infiltrate a music label. It's up to Hardison and Eliot to produce and compose a "hit track" while...Parker plays pop princess? (Nate is also there.)

Sophie is busy with Hardison impersonating music execs.

It's Discovered that Parker's artistic style is more Siouxsie and the Banshees than Poppy or Grimes. So the team takes turns using AI to contribute parts of the song ("In a Minute") to cover.
