MAGGIE: If temptation counted as cheating, no marriage would make it past the first year. Imagine what it was like for me, you bringing James around all those years…
NATE: James? Sterling?

NATE: Seriously? Sterling?
MAGGIE: Seriously.

Leverage; 2.15 - The Maltese Falcon Job
Leverage; 4.10 - The Queen’s Gambit Job

I’m gonna get out of the tags for this one because I really have a lot of feelings about how Sterling and Maggie (at a different, more emotional level, and damn I do love how the woman can read him as a book and how nobody drops a truth bomb as gracefully as she does) are the characters that articulate Nate’s identity arc in this show and how it is right because they are the ones that’ve seen every stage of the recognition of his ‘new’ identity.

I really love how this show chooses to use Sterling and Maggie’s characters in relation to Nate because if the team represents Nate’s present, his new life Maggie and Sterling are the ones that remind him of his past so every time they make an appearance, we’re not just talking about great side characters returning, we’re talking about a physical representation of Nate’s past life coming back and since they’re not overusing the characters, but bringing them back in key occasions, you can see perfectly how Nate has changed since the first season just through the way he interacts with those characters and how they react at each other since the beginning of the show.

Season 1
MAGGIE: Will you stop now?
NATE: I don’t know.
MAGGIE: Interesting. You admitting you don’t know something.

——-

Season 2

 

NATE: I’m sorry I lied to you, Maggie.
MAGGIE: So am I.
NATE: This isn’t what I wanna do.
MAGGIE: Now, that’s the lie.

You can take any different exchange between them (some of them separated by entire seasons) and the fact that you can clearly see those changes in their interactions, how they react at each other slightly differently every time they share a scene together because they’re not the same people, they’re constantly growing and evolving as characters gives me FEELINGS every time because guys, this show treats ALL its characters as human beings and their narrative arcs are so thoughtfully crafted and the characters are so multi-layered and intertwined and none of them is taken lightly and everyone affects everyone in different ways to the point there should be a whole encyclopedia on the characters of this show and their relationships with each other because they’re infinite.

On a related note, I love how everyone spent three seasons talking about how Sterling never loses and then The Queen Gambit happened and it turned out Sterling never loses because he already lost everything. And when I say “I love” I mean that last scene with the two of them and Olivia makes me emotional because this. fucking. show knows exactly what it’s doing and it’s beautiful.

But worst of all, he completely forgot that I gave him that same button-cam for Christmas three years ago.

5 Episodes Of Leverage You Can Watch On Their Own That Will Show You How Awesome This Show Is Without Having To See Any Season At All Even Though You Should. Three.  The First David Job/The Second David Job (1X12 + 1X13)

This is cheating. Two episodes but w/e. They need to be seen back to back. The Nigerian Job is where the emotional arc starts (for the anchor of the team, Nate), this is where the arc ends. The stakes are raised, the recurring villain (who you’re missing out on by not watching season one) returns and everything works/doesn’t work/goes haywire/gets insane and then some. What really amazes me about this show is how complete this first season is. If they hadn’t been picked up, the way it wraps up is fitting and satisfactory. But thank God it didn’t end there because trust me, by the time you finish these episodes you will want about a hundred more hours with these wonderful people.

Also. The Second David Job has my favorite scene in the whole series. First cap, bottom row. Parker smelling Maggie. WILL. NEVER. NOT. BE. THE. GREATEST.

Ok, PLEASE feel free to delete all this if you reblog, but I just need to say that I absolutely LOVE how obviously this show ships this OT5. I mean, you can watch the show and enjoy it no matter what pairing you ship the most because, honestly, every single combination is possible and it’s great, but this OT5… It’s the whole show, and the showrunners don’t have a problem showing it whenever it’s possible. Here we have these 5 emotionally crippled individuals breaking up in an airport, avoiding each other’s looks, saying that they had a good run but it’s time to move on. Seriously, how Casablanca is that? The resemblance is so amusing and perfect to me.
Not to mention their epic reunion 6 months later, (that one-shot sequence when they all see each other and there’s like a magnetic force that pulls them together) when everything is totally awkward and they try to convice each other they’ve been doing great on their own just to admit, a few hours later, that they missed each other so much they ended up stealing diamonds and putting them back and hacking the White House e-mail just because they were bored! Seriously, it’s just so delightfully obvious how the whole thing revolves around their dysfunctional love story that sometimes I have trouble believing this show actually exists.
