Sophie quotes from Leverage

I don't do gangs.

Eliot

Come on. We got some fresh air. Get off the computer.

I rappel.

Eliot

Come on!

Did no one see me rappel?

Sophie

Oh, I heard about it.

I'm not crazy about heights. Or enclosed spaces. [takes some pills]

Sophie

What is that you just took?

Xanax. For my nerves.

Parker

Actually, caffeine. With a dash of dextroamphetamine.

Eliot

You gave him speed?

He beat up a priest.

Sophie

You never cheated on her, Nate.

I know. I know. Tempted.

Sophie

No, no, you weren't.

I was.

Sophie

Not really. You’ve always been the good guy. That’s, uh, that's what made it fun. Well, part of what made it fun between us back then.

Back then, yeah. And what about now?

Sophie

I don't know. What about now? That’s what we have to figure out. By "we," um, I mean "you" of course.

Of course. Of course.

Sophie

Just, um...don't take too long.

Parker

Whoa. That’s a lot of public.

I’m very good.

Eliot

Yeah. A little too good.

Sophie

What did we just do?

The weeping statue of St. Nick is on YouTube.

Eliot

Good. This church will never shut down.

Sophie

There’s just so many people here. I mean, what if they find out it's a...fake?

Hell fire, damnation, et cetera. You know what? I’m gonna step over here, so when the good lord throws down on all of y'all, I don't get hit by the lightning.

Parker

Wasn’t Zeus the one with the lightning?

Parker

It's like Christmas! See, I told you Saint Nicholas is Santa Claus.

Sophie

No, he's not, Parker.

Parker

Well, who is he then?

Sophie

Saint Nicholas? [smiles] He's the patron saint of thieves.

No, no cops. If they find out we contacted the police, they'll kill her.

Sophie

They're not cops, I promise you. They're friends of mine, you can trust them.

Why should I trust you? I don't know who you are.

Sophie

I'm a thief.

Okay…I'm not sure what to do with that.

Sophie

I think it went through and through. Well, it missed your artery.

Well, at least there's that.

Sophie

Things could be worse.

Worse than me getting shot and you blowing our cover?

Sophie

We wouldn't even be in this mess if you'd just walked out with the cash when you had the chance. I would've been fine.

I know.

Sophie

Yeah, I can take care of myself. I've been doing it a long time. Since way before I met you. I'm just saying.

Yeah, you're right.

Sophie

Okay.

Sophie

We lost communication.

Yeah, we did.

Sophie

Hardison, Parker, and Eliot ...

That's right, they are on their own. Yup.

Sophie

You're still a geek.

Geek power, baby. Stay strong!

Sophie

Hey, thanks, Parker.

Parker

Whatever.

Sophie

No. It was an excellent performance.

Parker

Yeah, I think I can act okay when I'm yelling at people and bossing them around.

Sophie

Well, it's a good start.

Eliot

This would be easier if you were in here.

Well, we would be if Sophie weren't already old friends with the ambassador.

Sophie

I wouldn't say "old" friends exactly.

The United States is pleased to make the first payment for construction of the trans-Ukrainian pipeline to her Royal Highness, Princess Magda of Slovenia.

Sophie

[Smiling] I still have that tiara, though.

Sophie

Now anchor the emotion. Raise the champagne flute to your lips.

Eliot

Cheers.

Sophie

Take a nice, long sip. And now every time she laughs or smiles, repeat that motion. She’s gonna link that to a nice, warm feeling. You can use that later.

That, uh, drink thing. You’ve never used that on me, have you?

Sophie

[takes a drink of her soda] I would never.

Of course not.

Sophie

So, how'd you know Irina would go for the movie thing?

A European grifter who wants to be an actress? Lucky guess.

Sophie

This, this, this is my world! Okay, you need, you need someone to, I dunno, crawl through an air duct, you call Parker. Bash a head in? Eliot. Internet porn? Hardison! You need someone to take over a movie, then...

I ask an actor. Right. Um. Sophie. About the acting…

Sophie

Oh, yeah? What? What is it?

[looks around uncomfortably] You're right. You're right. You, you know, we're gonna, we're gonna go with your scene.

Sophie

Really?! Ohh! It’s gonna be -- it's gonna be fantastic.

It certainly is.
