The
team goes up against a fellow thief, Gabe Erickson, who conned people
out of their life savings but he is protected by the government. He
purposely made mob connections so he could agree to testify against them
in case he got in trouble. They decide to use his obsession with
vintage cars against him to try and follow his money trail to where he’s
hidden millions of dollars. Things take an interesting turn when the
Marshall protecting him has secrets of her own. Should any of the
Leverage crew think about retiring? Is Gabe more evil for stealing money
or for spoiling a little girl’s favorite series? All that and more on
this episode of Leverage.

Ep 67 - The Gimmie A K Street Job
The
team has to get involved with the government when a young cheerleader
gets injured because the competition isn’t up to safety codes. The
company that owns them, Pep, is allowed to get away with sub-par safety
because cheerleading is considered a recreational activity and not a
sport. The team decides to try and get the government to turn
cheerleading into a sport, but they find out it’s not as easy as buying a
politician or two. They have to work against the clock to turn four
congressmen by the time the bill goes up in front of them. Should
cheerleading be a sport or an activity? How far of a drop would Parker
consider scary? And what the heck is going on with Nate? All that and
more on this episode of Leverage.

Heath, the man who taught Eliot how to cook, comes to the team for help
after he gets fired from a special culinary institute. He thinks the
owner David Lampard is doing illegal business on the side, possibly
drugs. Eliot and Hardison infiltrate with Eliot becoming the new teacher
and Hardison one of the students. They find out it’s not drugs Lampard
is dealing in but expensive and rare truffles. Would you want Eliot as a
cooking instructor? Is food cooler if it’s made with a laser? And
shouldn’t Hardison be better at safe cracking by now? All that and more
on this episode of Leverage.
