Line 84:
{{quote| '''Sophie:''' I'm a grifter. If I'm doing my job right, they just...turn the alarm off for me.}}
* [[The Heart]]: Ironically, as Nate was the "honest man" who got everyone to work together, she's become Nate's moral compass and the emotional center of the group.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: Whoa, what if [[Coupling|Jane]] was just one of Sophie's cons? She lived in London (i.e. near museums and Buckingham Palace), she had a job that required a helicopter, and no one ever suspects the dumb one.
* [[Hypno Fool]]: Her use of neuro-linguistic programming on others verges on this.
* [[Journey to Find Oneself|Journey To Find Herself]]: Second half of season 2.
Line 144:
* [[Handsome Lech]]: We hardly ever see him actually hook up, but he is indubitably this.
* [[Hates Being Touched]]: Portrayed subtly, but confirmed by [[Word of God]]. Played for laughs.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: Kane played Lindsay on ''[[Angel (TV)|Angel]]''.
** Also Robert Duvall's younger self in ''[[Secondhand Lions]]''.
* [[Hidden Depths]]: Out the wazoo. And he keeps uncovering more.
Line 197:
* [[Evil Genius]]: If this is a [[Five-Bad Band]], anyway.
* [[Happily Adopted|Happily Fostered]]: He calls his foster mom "Nana" and speaks of her with great fondness. She was apparently a powerfully positive influence in his life.
* [[Genius' Sweet Tooth]]: He's a technological genius who pretty much runs solely on orange soda and gummi frogs.
* [[Hollywood Hacking]]
* [[Insufferable Genius]]: Interestingly, he's so charismatic by nature that he's generally easy to forgive when he gets into a bragging spiel. The other characters aren't quite as charmed as the audience, though.
Line 212:
* [[Playful Hacker]]
* [[Proud to Be A Geek]]: "[[World of Warcraft|For the Horde!]]" *[[Handshake Substitute|fistbump]]*
* [[Rapid -Fire Typing]]
* [[Renaissance Man]]: Paints, sculpts, hacks, plays violin, and he's a decent actor to boot. Oh, and he taught himself a crash course in creating period-looking art that holds up to pretty amazingly close inspection.
** Also lawyering on the fly.
* [[Salt and Pepper]]: Frequently detailed to work with Eliot.
* [[Science Hero]]
* [[Sharp -Dressed Man]]: When he wants to, Hardison [[She Cleans Up Nicely|cleans up very nicely]].
* [[The Smart Guy]]: If this is a [[Five-Man Band]], anyway.
* [[Techno Babble]]: So. Much.
Line 331:
* [[Papa Wolf]]: Don't disrespect Parker in front of him. He might just taser you.
* [[Retired Badass]]
* [[Shout -Out]]: Archie Leach is the real name of [[Cary Grant]], who, among many other roles, played the (retired) [[Gentleman Thief]] in ''[[It Takes a Thief]]''.
 
== '''Patrick Bonanno''' ==
Line 392:
* [[The Mark]]: By partway through the first episode.
* {{spoiler|[[Might As Well Not Be in Prison At All]]: Masterminds the entirety of Season 4's overarcing plot from his jail cell. He certainly wants out, but he doesn't need to in order to be a problem.}}
* [[Out -Gambitted]]: Come on Victor, did you really expect Nate and Sophie to lose control of the situation for more than a minute?
* {{spoiler|[[Revenge By Proxy]]: Kills Nate's father to get to him.}}
* [[The Rival]]: Seems to see Pearson as his personal rival as well as a financial one.
Line 454:
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]: His handle advertises his [[Chaotic Evil]] status.
* [[Only in It For The Money]]
* [[Out -Gambitted]]: By Nate in "The Two Live Crew Job" and Hardison in the "The Ho-Ho-Ho Job." He himself inflicts this on Marcus Starke in the former, and the entire Leverage crew during the first part of the latter.
* [[Rapid -Fire Typing]]
* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: Gives a pretty nasty one to Marcus Starke, telling him flat out that Sophie's the one people were really afraid of.
* [[Recurring Character]]
Line 491:
*** In "The Two Live Crew Job" the rival crew was fellow thieves, Moreau is a money launderer who has no reason to keep tabs on thieves.
* [[Faux Affably Evil]]
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: [[ER|Dr. Kovac!]]
* [[The Man Behind the Man]]: To several [[Villain of the Week|villains of the week]] and [[President Evil|President]] [[Puppet King|Ribera]] of San Lorenzo.
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]
Line 556:
** {{spoiler|[[Badass Long Hair]]: In his second appearance}}.
** [[Hidden Badass]]: Eliot really didn't see that one coming.
** [[Pop -Cultured Badass]]: Quotes ''Tombstone'' in the middle of a fight.
* [[Brains and Brawn]]: With Chaos in the Season 4 finale.
* [[The Brute]]: He's got just enough personality to escape being a [[Giant Mook]] or [[Elite Mook]], but isn't important enough to Sterling's plan to qualify as [[The Dragon]]. Definitely this.
Line 588:
* [[Man of Wealth and Taste]]
* [[The Mark]]
* [[Out -Gambitted]]: Underestimated Nate's brains and Maggie's complicity, and overestimated Sterling's loyalty.
* [[Rules Lawyer]]: Takes every opportunity he can to default on policies, even if it means people die.
* [[Smug Snake]]: More high-functioning than your average mark, but not nearly as smart as Nate or Sterling.
Line 600:
* [[Manipulative Bastard]]
* [[Only in It For The Money]]
* [[Out -Gambitted]]: By Chaos and Nate in rapid succession.
* [[Sharp -Dressed Man]]
* [[Similar Squad]]: His team is set-up along very similar lines to Leverage Consulting & Associates, though the lack of a Sophie counterpart shakes things up a little. He's [[The Big Bad]], ex-mercenary Mikel Dayan is [[The Dragon]], Colin "Chaos" Mason is [[The Evil Genius]], and world class thief and infiltrator Apollo is [[The Dark Chick]].
* [[Smug Snake]]: Of the "failed Magnificent Bastard" variety. He's very good, but just not up to Nate's (or presumably Sterling's) level, and makes the key mistake of trusting Chaos.
Line 628:
* [[The Danza]]: Played by Apollo Robbins, the show's consultant on theft.
* [[The Dark Chick]]: Of Marcus Starke's crew.
* [[Five -Finger Discount]]: Engages in a pickpocketing battle with Parker.
* [[Gentleman Thief]]
* [[Hired Guns]]: A corporate spy and infiltrator for hire.
Line 693:
* [[Manipulative Bastard]]
* [[One Last Job]]: How he views his scheme. He wants his payout from the Three Families, and then he's thinking about moving back to Ireland.
* [[Out -Gambitted]]: By Nate.
* [[Refuge in Audacity]]: Tries to {{spoiler|rob a police station}}.
* [[So Proud of You]]: See Arson Murder and Admiration, above.
