.... There should have been more!
Just like the "Leverage" famous 360 camera angles of the team, this episode takes us full circle in so many ways. Without spoiling the episode for anyone, there are many re-imagings of pilot episode scenes which is great to help us remember how far we have come with these people - our heroes.
We, the audience, get conned a few times, which makes it even more fun even though it is a very dramatic episode.
In the end, we get to see how much the characters have grown since we met them. Nate has a clear path for his future; Sophie gets her acting redemption- she really is good when acting is part of the con; Parker can experience and express her feelings; Sterling comes through in the end - he is the villain you just love to hate- how can anyone really hate Mark Sheppard, though? Hardison has matured and Eliot got a family to trust.
The three man team will continue on which would have been a show I would have dearly loved to see - Leverage International.
All in all it was very satisfying conclusion to a show that I still feel is one of the best of television. We know that all of our heroes will live and long and happy lives with Eliot protecting them "'Til his dying day."
A sincere "Thank You" to everyone who was involved in bringing us this wonderful series.
