The Inside Job

• Sophie guessed Parker's security code right first time! (and was it seriously Sophie's real name, or is she just playing Nate? Because, if the former... PARKER/SOPHIE OTP.)


• "Really? This is exactly what I expected." OH ELIOT. Also, I laughed SO HARD at Eliot and Hardison's flashback to the wrong address! BOYS.


• "Let's go steal a Parker." I have changed my mind, I am NEVER getting tired of that construction.


• Steed and Peel! Oh Hardison, you enormous geek. ::loves::


• "I'm hacking a security system the Pentagon called overkill with a laptop I found in the back of my car!" And, because you are Hardison, it is working.


• Sophie taunting Hannity! She is SO AWESOME.


• "You taught me a lot of things. But this is what we do." ♥_♥ PARKER.


• Eliot looks so irritated! It is how he shows his LOVE.


• Slideykick! There were some great fights this week.


• "That's great! You're awesome! LET'S GO." Ahahaha, Eliot cracks me up.


• The ending! MY HEART IS WARMED.

The Scheherazade Job

• "Let's go steal the man in the street. In Africa." See above re. never getting tired of this.


• "What do you want me to do, give the man a pet tiger?"/"...can you do that?" HEARTS.


• Guy Hamilton! That is just the PERFECT name for that character.


• Hardison's FACE! Trying to be all "yay!" and "NO WHAT NO" at the same time!


• "Scheherazade. One of nature's all time great grifters." Oh Sophie!


• Nate's conducting face!


• Luckily for Hardison, "mild panic" is an acceptable in character state.


• I really loved how the music and the con were intertwined at the end here. But I do question the decision to give Parker a Single Tear of Music Appreciation. Maybe I am a philistine - that sort of scene generally leaves me cold - but... really?


• Aw, Eliot being all sincere.


• Oh wow, that ending was mean even by Nate's standards. D:

Heehee! These two were good eps, yes??

I am wondering if it was really Aldis playing - because he genuinely does play violin!

I thought it was brilliant the way they were so caught up in the music they got caught - but then again, I adore Scheheradaze so I'm totally biased!

I need to upload my Hardison/Parker icon! (Also, someone needs to icon Hardison playing while dressed in his tux.)

Absolutely! I thoroughly enjoyed both of them.

I read somewhere - possibly John Rogers's blog - that the episode was written round Aldis's violin-playing skills, so at least some of it probably was!

I loved that they stopped and listened to it - it was just the Single Tear that was a bit much for me.

YES.

I felt very spoilt when I realised we had two eps again this week!

I read somewhere - possibly John Rogers's blog - that the episode was written round Aldis's violin-playing skills, so at least some of it probably was!

Aha! Makes sense!

I loved that they stopped and listened to it - it was just the Single Tear that was a bit much for me.

That didn't bother me - it would've annoyed me more had she been properly weeping...

The sailor moon cosplay was the best part

That was the bit with Eliot and Hardison turning up at the address they thought was Parker's, yes? I didn't get the reference, but it was still awesome!
