I think they realized they were two minutes short at the end of this episode and filled it in with flashbacks of things we had clearly seen minutes ago.  

I thought he was going to say, "Sometimes the nuns like to walk around naked.'

I agree.  Catching up on these I didn't even know this was part of a two-parter, so I was fine with the idea that Hardison and Eliot were up to some hijinks on their night off.  

Birth mother was dead, and the stepdad was selling necessary nuclear components to terrorists.  The girl was spying on the stepdad for her real dad.  I didn't really see the custodial argument (even assuming the bad guys don't kill the stepdad for selling them a bad doodad).  

I'd be willing to bet more British secondary students know who Barbara Bush is than US high school students do, and I'm not even entirely sure what "secondary students" are.  Seriously, are they some kind of robot?

I think she's largely forgotten, except for people who pay particular attention to British politics.  I think if you showed her picture to 10 high school students 9 would think she was Barbara Bush.  

It's worth noting that the Ugly American was the good guy who worked with the people, the Handsome American was the dick.  That's pretty much all I remember from that book.  

For some reason, I start out with each new season of Leverage intending to watch it.  A few episodes in I'm catching it on demand, then I'm missing the on demand window, and by the end of the season I've forgotten it's on.  I don't dislike it; I find it sufficiently amusing and the cast sufficiently charismatic but…

That horse really loved him.

Well, at least you didn't sleep with the casting director.

You're thinking of the Heath Ledger movie with the two queers.

I can't make it through the trailer without misting up.  Courageous animals just get me.  The Simpsons where Santa's Little Helper becomes one of Mr. Burn's guard dogs had me bawling.

I'll tell you the exact moment I checked out of Minority Report.  (Spoilers, I guess?)  When Colin Ferrel's character gets killed.  He's basically the only character in the movie who has ever investigated a homicide and he's portrayed as an expert, and for some reason he hands a loaded gun to one of the only two…

Kim and the youngest sister are hot.  The middle sister looks like she got hit with a hot bag of nickels.

I was thinking, or hoping, Nucky would shoot Eli.  But fuck it.  It wouldn't be much of a tragedy if only the people you didn't like suffered.

I agree with you.  I showed AUC to a couple of my friends who don't watch Community (as I did with Modern Warfare), and separate from being a really good episode of Community, it's a really good holiday special.  

The 'Burbs! 

Oh, I know him, he's an asshole.

It's not really fair to compare anyone to Gillian Jacobs.  Even if we could clone her so there were two Gillian Jacobs… umm.. I have to go.  

I got both of them (Diggstown and The Hard Way) out of a discount bin for about $5 apiece.  I'd invite you over to watch them but my mom doesn't let me have guests over after dark.
