Underrated moments from my Leverage rewatch, season 4:

The Long Way Down Job

  • “I think a nipple fell off – ”
  • Nate: “You’re emotionally involved, it leads to bad
    decisions.” Hardison: “Did *you* just say that? With a straight face?”
  • “I said simple stall, and you heard ‘multi national high
    finance feeding frenzy’.”

The Ten Li’l Grifters Job

  • “Yes, Parker, I would tell you if I murdered the mark.”

The Fifteen Minutes Job

  • “I – I got Heimlich’d.”
  • “You didn’t get one of those in high school?” “For what,
    jackass of the year?”
  • “Back away from the brochures!”

The Hot Potato Job

  • “What’s that voice? Is she doing me?”
  • “One good lift in three years. Awesome!”
  • “Hardison, don’t teach him that.”
  • “Trevor, what did we say about overusing your words?”

The Carnival Job

  • “You forgot to mention the need for talent.”
  • “A little warning next time!” “What did you think ‘run like
    hell’ meant?”

The Grave Danger Job

  • “Where the hell did you get that car?” “It’s a rental.”
  • *clutches chest while sobbing over Hardison and the team*

The Boiler Room Job

  • “Seriously, Hardison? Count Chocula?”
  • “Mrs. Cox. With an x.” “Of course.”
  • “What was it again?” “The blowfish, I think.”

The Cross my Heart Job

  • “Can’t we just get another heart?” “From who?”
  • “Nobody’s asking Eliot to fight someone with a Nerf Sword.”
    “Damascus,
    2002.”
  • “God killed you. I just made sure it took.” ie the only
    moment in the show I was attracted to Nate Ford

The Queen’s Gambit Job

  • “Eliot, try not to kill Sterling. We may need him.” “I can’t
    promise that!”
  • “Can I go again?!”
  • “How many plans do I die in?”

The Experimental Job

  • “You ever go quail hunting, Hardison?” “Do I look like I go
    quail hunting?” “Have you ever played a video game where you go quail hunting?”
  • “How many kinds of whumpa-whumpa are there?” “Seven!”

The Office Job

  • “Now that’s a high school graduation card.”

The Girls’ Night Out Job

  • “What are you, the wardrobe whisperer?”
  • “Why can’t a small business owner *wham!* who happens to
    like cats *kapow!* find a nice guy?!”

The Boys’ Night Out Job

  • “We all had dreams once, Liam!”
  • “You just coldcocked a nun! In church!”

The Lonely Hearts Job

  • “He said distract her, not beat her ass!”
  • “Yes, I need you to teach me about the wines again.”
  • Eliot and the flowers!!!!

The Gold Job

  • I’m gonna be honest; I skipped this one. Nate’s such a dick
    to Hardison that the episode just makes me mad.

The Radio Job

  • “Nate even cleared out his browser so we wouldn’t know. It’s
    adorable.”

The Last Dam Job

  • “How many fingers do you need to type? Round down.”
  • I know this line is hardly underrated but “so he hacks us
    with a CLAM?” will always be one of the funniest lines in TV history
  • “I guess it was the taser.”
  • “The last time I underestimated you, I was right.”
  • “Well, I’m definitely not Eliot.”
  • Similarly not underrated but “that’s what makes it fair”
    hnnnnnnnnnnnng
