#leverage the zanzibar marketplace job

Nate: Eliot, no violence

Eliot: I only use violence as an appropriate response

Sterling: hello Nate

Eliot: (starts beating the shit out of Sterling)

I love these idiots. I also love Hardison and Parker just. Grinning at the scene, and Sterling failing so badly at fighting back

Leverage 2x12 - "The Zanzibar Marketplace Job"

[listen-to-the-inner-walrus]

Honestly best part of The Zanzibar Marketplace Job is the fact that Sterling came with his own PowerPoint to present in front of the crew. Obsessed with this man.

ok I need to know: has Eliot Spencer tried the curly girl method and how did it go? because I am convinced that his hair is naturally curly and I need them to stop straightening it/brushing it out. every time it gets wet, it gets wavy and I just… ::fans self:: imagine if his hair looked like this ALL THE TIME

FURTHERMORE, what am I supposed to do with the knowledge that sometimes this man puts tiny little beads in tiny little sections of his hair just because. he likes to feel pretty.

Hardison having the cash out to pay off the bartender in the same second Eliot throws the first punch. Iconic behavior from both of them, really

[leverage-ot3]

it’s been over ten years and there can still be no other way to describe parker and hardison’s reaction to eliot kicking the shit out of sterling other than pleased and horny

“Eliot I’m gonna ask you not to get violent” “What? What are you talking about? I only use violence as an appropriate response.”

And you know what punching Sterling is an appropriate response to him opening his mouth

Hardison paying the bartender off lmaooo

[gremlinbean]

Nate and Maggie making out because they thought they were gonna get blown up was not on my bingo card for this ep but yknow what? Good for them

[gnar-slabdash]

I just caught this, so in the Two Horse Job when we first meet Sterling we have this exchange:

Parker: Is it true Sterling spent three days in the trunk of a car waiting to catch someone? Nate: No, no. Sophie: It was five.

And then next season in the Zanzibar Marketplace Job, when he stages his great breakthrough that gets him into interpol he does it by hiding in the trunk of the mark’s car and emerging dramatically with the stolen egg. 

Man really has a thing for cramped spaces and new car smell.

Leverage 2x12 - "The Zanzibar Marketplace Job"

[ID: A Leverage gifset. Sterling walks into the bar that the crew is in, and and Nate briefly looks up to meet his eyes before saying, “Eliot, I’m gonna ask you not to do anything violent.” Eliot frowns, “What? What are you talking about? I only use violence as an appropriate response.” Sterling is revealed standing behind Eliot.

Sterling smiles and says, “Hello, Nate,” and Eliot’s expression freezes before slowly gaining intensity. Eliot shoots out of his seat and delivers a strong right hook to Sterling’s cheek.

Eliot looks furious, and the camera freezes over Sterling’s shocked face before swiveling to Parker and Hardison standing at the bar. The bartender starts to move away, but Hardison hands him a wad of dollar bills and shakes his head. The camera stays on Parker and Hardison, who smile with clear amusement and appreciation. End ID]

Eliot’s beads and braids in The Zanzibar Marketplace Job. That’s it. Send tweet.

Still on the rewatch and god Sterling and Nate must have made such a funny fucking pair when they were at IYS

That drunken distraction was amazing. And also implies that one of them learned it from the other, because Nate pretty visibly was doing the same thing in the Two Live Crew Job

(And god I LOVE Parker's dress in this omg, it's so 2000s)
