Don’t spy on your ex wife with the spy camera she remembers, Nate. She’ll pull shit like this on you.
This was an amazing scene and is probably one of my favorites from my very favorite show. For many reasons. Mostly because it demonstrates why I love this show, despite it having one of those straight white super smart male leads. Nate here is being ridiculed, humiliated. Everyone is staring at him, embarrassed on his behalf. He does not come back from this moment, call his ex-wife a bitch or a liar, or try and humiliate her in turn. His embarrassment remains and lasts. He is our protagonist, our lead, but he is not untouchable, he is not perfect, and he is not always right.
It’s nuance like that, among so many other wonderful things, that makes me love Leverage so much. It is my very favorite show.
The exact moment I fell madly in love with Maggie.
If you look carefully, right before this scene you can see her quickly glance towards Eliot’s hidden camera (it was so subtle, it took me like my third rewatch to notice). Like, she noticed that shit within 0.2 seconds of seeing Eliot.
I always loved how Maggie and Sophie were friends and not only was there no new post but Maggie was actively happy Sophie and Nate were together. Very refreshing.
