can't believe i'm saying this but i may have just tracked down the possible location of the Eliot flashback in The Miracle Job by the split second frame of the f*cking currency on the table. what can i say it's a very distinctive banknote

In the miracle job Eliot mentions he has a nephew and in the fractured job there is no mention of Eliot having any siblings, so I'm gonna be real mad if Leverage: Redemption season 3 comes out and we don't get anything more about Eliot's family

2024 Leverage Rewatch: 1x06 The Miracle Job
Maybe I’m not here to save this church, Nate. Maybe I need to lose this church to save you.

Sophie: You never cheated on her, Nate. Nate: I know. I know. Tempted. Sophie: No, no, you weren't. Nate: I was. Sophie: Not really. You’ve always been the good guy. That’s, uh, that's what made it fun. Well, part of what made it fun between us back then. Nate: Back then, yeah. And what about now? Sophie: I don't know. What about now? That’s what we have to figure out. By "we," um, I mean "you" of course.
OF COURSE Sophie turns it around and makes this a "Nate has to figure his shit out" moment. Which is true, but I think she's totally sliding past the huge thing she just revealed about herself. Up till now, in their whole history together, she's considered him unattainable because she cast him as the White Knight in her play. He was supposed to be the good guy, untouchable -- they could flirt, toy with each other, but he was too "Good" for her to ever be with him. Even now she can't consider that he might have been tempted, because that goes against the narrative she wrote for him.
But now she has to see him as a real person, because instead of short intense meetings over time, he's actually right there, all the time. And yeah, he's got a lot of shit to work through, but I think seeing all of his flaws is extra difficult for her because she'd kept him on this distant pedestal for so long. Now she can't write his role the way she wants it, he can't be the perfect White Knight she made up. AND now she has to deal with the possibility of being able to have a real relationship with him, which she actually never thought would be possible.
She hasn't been pining for him, she's been happily fantasizing about this unreal, unattainable idea of him. And now instead he's a real, messy (very messy) human with real, messy (very messy) feelings for her. No wonder she runs away. It's so much easier to love people from a safe distance.
[edit] whoops sorry forgot to credit as always the indispensible whendarknessfalls for the transcript

Okay, I trust that you guys know what you're doing when you say to follow the recommended order, but this one maybe feels like it should have been earlier on based on some of the dialogue etc.? We'll see. 🤔
Damn, Eliot.
"You gave him speed??" "He beat up a priest."
Not sure that's how it would work, though, but okay.
Stigmata paintball gun. 😂
Yeah, still getting the feeling the continuity is a little off.
Eliot's hair is very straight in this episode.
And also shorter than in the last one I watched. What'd I just say.
Yeah, that is a very fake fake miracle.
Honestly, I'm surprised if there isn't a "Bibletopia" somewhere in the U.S.
Teamwork, baby. Oh, was that the first Hardison/Eliot bro-fist thing or am I forgetting one? Well, definitely the first one related to Parker.
Honestly, the continuity is really confusing with this one. Oh well.

[ID: Set of three sketches of Eliot Spencer in his original-series flashbacks. The first is his flashback of having someone load a revolver and place it to his head in a sort of Russian Roulette game from The Miracle Job (a situation that is less unpleasant than watching Sophie’s play). The second is Eliot shirtless and in chains being dragged along a corridor from The Two Horse Job. The third is Eliot under the influence of the psychotropic drug used in The White Rabbit Job. End ID]

Day 25 cheeky bonus: Flashbacks
Just a bunch of flashbacks as practice drawing canon scenes, which always takes ages so why did I decide to do it in the midst of a month-long prompt event??? -_-

I love how the second Nate mentions the Vatican in “The Miracle Job” Parker and Eliot immediately turn away. Hardison follows them but they were so quick to leave now I have a hc that they both have separate but equally dramatic thefts from the Vatican.

okay the miracle job priest is still kinda shouty and not nearly charismatic enough to get away with the fire and brimstone stuff, in my opinion, and I cannot excuse someone who breaks the seal of the confessional because he's angry about something like this.
however? his odd and ineffective sermon about the owner of the land not having his hands in the soil and the worker having faith in god and in his own abilities, about the worker not waiting for a miracle but making one happen?
it ties into something quite nice in this episode, actually: we get to see the bad guy's underling look increasingly uncomfortable with what's going on until he very publically puts the final nail in his boss's coffin, and in doing so reveals to us that he's an actual character with free will and motives and a sense of justified betrayal, and not just background decor.
and that sermon, clumsy and emotionally ineffective as it is, coming after nate telling tomas in the confessional that he has to make things right… yeah I can see how that would push him to take a stand when shit goes properly sideways.
and it's nice, that the key to this win comes at the hands of a local, someone the church is for and has been all his life. it's nice that we don't see nate really abusing being mistaken for a priest in the confessional, as much as the ethics are very much up for debate.
I just wish they'd gotten a better actor for a priest who's sort of meant to be the heart of the community alongside the church we want to be saved. though it's not like it doesn't make sense for an old friend of nate's to be an already angry dude who is, admittedly, kind of at the end of his tether.
(and it's really not his fault that I'm always, always holding up fictional priests against bbc's father brown.)

caaaaan we talk about how in the miracle job after hardison pushed that guy, eliot pulled Hardison back so he’s slightly behind eliot. i think it’s important that we talk about it
Are we talking about this?
Tumblr media
I'm ashamed to say that I've never noticed this before😬It's very subtle. But we most certainly can talk about it. Eliot is so protective and he's gonna get in between Hardison and the danger. Eliot will be alll grumpy and dismissive of his feelings but he cares. He.Cares. I love these two. I really do.
Also, Sorry it took me so long to answer your ask. Work has been a LOT recently. I've been more there than at home.

I appreciate how Nate is an honest man... when he's not talking to/about Sophie.
