Hardison,
Parker, and Eliot are in DC finishing up a job when Eliot gets a call
from his past. He doesn’t do professional hits anymore, but he knows now
there is one about to happen in DC, so the three of them have to stop
it. They manage to save the victim but Eliot figures out quickly the job
was part of a much bigger conspiracy. He calls in his friend Colonel
Vance to report a potential terrorist attack. Vance pretends to arrest
them, but instead gives them the mission to find out the truth and stop
it. Is it smart to go back to the scene of the crime? Could the three of
them pull off their own show? And wasn’t this a crazy intense episode?
All that and more on this episode of Leverage.

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

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

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.

Toby
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.

Ep 65 - The First Contact Job
A
man named James Kanack stole a special design from his employee Oren
Matz, ruining his reputation and the credit he deserves. The team finds
out that Kanack is obsessed with the idea of Extraterrestrial life and
believes in aliens. They decide to “steal a close encounter” and get him
to believe that there’s a message from outer space only they can
decipher. They do manage to steal money from him, but that’s not enough
for Oren, who cares more about his creation and reputation than money.
Can the team take down Kanack for good? How perfect was it that Jonathan
Frakes directed this episode? Can you get Hardison and Eliot’s song out
of your head? All that and more on this episode of Leverage.
