Something fishy is going on  at the Good Cheer Greeting Card Office, and the team gets hired to look into it. Unfortunately there is a documentary crew there at the same time with an eccentric director who keeps getting in their way. The team has to pretend to be efficiency experts there to investigate the company and keep their covers with cameras on them. At the same time during their personal interviews with the director, they reveal little things that irritate them about their co-workers. Does Bartley know anything other than sports metaphors? Why didn’t Hardison punch Gunter for being all over his girl? What was in Nate’s card at the end? All that and more on this episode of Leverage.

The team finds out that a preppy fraternity boy named Travis Zilgram is working with the CIA and his college’s secret society to conduct experiments on the homeless. They seek out veterans in particular and offer them money in exchange for going through torture and interrogations for days on end. Hardison goes undercover at the college to get invited into the secret society, and Eliot poses as a homeless veteran to be a part of the experiment. The team has to find a way to get the CIA to stop protecting Travis and expose his inhumane project. Can Parker have an shock button all the time? Can Hardison be shirtless all the time? We really wish so. All that and more on this episode of Leverage.

The team is surprised when their old nemesis Jim Sterling shows up asking for help. An ex-nuclear physicist named Robert Livingston is selling Kazakhstan technology that could help them develop uranium. Interpol doesn’t have enough to arrest Livingston, so Sterling wants them to steal the tech first. They go to Dubai where a chess masters competition is being held, and Livingston is there with his step-daughter Olivia. She is a famous young chess player herself, and Sterling believes the Kazakh agents will be there to buy the uranium tech. Things do not go according to plan, and the team has to think on their feet and watch their back. How did Nate not know about Olivia? Should Parker and Hardison dance in every episode? And shouldn’t Eliot and Sterling get their own buddy cop movie? All that and more on this episode of Leverage.

The team are coming back from a successful mission when Nate’s spidey senses start tingling. They’re still in the airport but he senses something is wrong when he sees a scared woman hand off a cooler to a man. He approaches the woman and she reveals someone has kidnapped her daughter and demanded she give them a donor heart as ransom. The team has to save the daughter, find out who stole the heart, and retrieve the heart all in time to get it to a dying fifteen year old boy. They have under two hours to do this with none of their equipment or a plan. Would Hardison make a pretty girl? Does Sophie carry multiple costumes with her everywhere? Can a plan include setting Nate on fire? All that and more on this episode of Leverage.

Nate and the team have their work cut out for them in this episode when they go up against a conman descended from a prestigious line of grifters and thieves. Greg “The Mako” Sherman is running a Boiler Room con and making a killing by swindling his marks out of all their money. Hardison goes in as a new recruit, but is quickly discovered by Sherman, and the team has to figure out a way to con a conman. How the hell does Sophie know so much about chocolate? Did Eliot really eat a snake? And can anyone pull off giving themselves their own nickname? All that and more on this episode of Leverage.

The team finds out about a con woman and her two sons hustling grieving family members at funeral homes. Things get more complicated when it turns out they’re not just doing one con, but a much more serious one at the same time, stealing the identities of the dead people and selling them to a drug lord. Hardison is kidnapped and buried alive, and they only have a short time to  save him and take down both the drug lord and the original bad guys. Did anyone keep from tearing up in this episode? Because if you did, you’re not human. All that and more on this episode of Leverage.

In the 50th episode of Leverage, the team is hired to help a programmer whose evil boss stole a chip he’s been working on his entire life and fired him too. It turns out the bad guy, John Connell, is not as much of a bad guy as they originally thought. His wife died a year ago and he’s heavily in debt because he transferred his grief into spending all his money on her house renovations. Eliot bonds with his jaded daughter while the team infiltrates John’s house, but everything changes when the daughter is kidnapped by a Russian criminal group. Is it better when bad guys are bad guys? Why is Eliot so cute with kids? Is there a replacement for Parker? All that and more on this episode of Leverage.

The team is investigating a big food industry company for stealing a special “super potato” designed by their client, Emily Margold. When the potato is taken quicker than they expected, Sophie has to run an impromptu con so she can get into the highly secure building before they’re too late. She fakes a mole hunt to buy the team time so they can get inside and steal the potato back. Sophie and Nate have a power struggle over who is running the con, which is also tied into the fact they’ve secretly slipped back into friends with benefits. Are they capable of just being adult friends “with extras”? Is Eliot training all of them how to fight and if so can we watch? All that and more on this episode of Leverage.

And we'd like to give a special thank you to Hannah! She took the time to let us know things weren't quite right when we were having all those technical difficulties with the last few episodes. Thanks, Hannah! We really appreciate it!

One of Nate’s former colleagues tells him that they might have tracked down a legendary lost Vincent Van Gogh painting. An old man named Charlie Lawson came back to his home town and apparently knows where it is, so the team have to protect Charlie from other treasure hunters and find the painting. Charlie takes a shine to Parker after seeing her inter-racial relationship with Hardison, and he tells her the story of his first true love. Beth Riesgraf and Aldis Hodge play Charlie and his love Dorothy in the flashbacks, and the rest of the cast shows up in different parts of Charlie’s history. Can the team get the painting before it falls into evil hands? Did Dorothy do the right thing by staying behind? Did the show succeed in trying something completely new? All that and more on this episode of Leverage.

It’s been less than two weeks since the San Lorenzo job, and Nate calls the team back together to handle a time sensitive mission. A mountain climber went missing and his wife hired Nate to look into it. Apparently he had proof that his partner, John Drexel, is corrupt and stealing money from innocent people. Nate insists they go up to the mountain together. Eliot and Parker hike up the mountain to find the missing body, Hardison runs tech from the camp, Sophie runs several different cons at once on Drexel himself, and Nate tries not to get himself killed. Almost unsuccessfully. Is Eliot getting too used to hugging Hardison? Did Sophie use four different accents in one scene? And did anyone have a dry eye during that last video? All that and more on this episode of Leverage.
