Thought it was a fun job of the week. You could see the case was very personal to Nate because of his son's death which also involved a drug company. Elliot getting pissed off and beating the shit out of the 2 guys who spilled coffee on him was great.
I also enjoyed Parker being insanely jealous of the cute client who kind of had a thing for Hardison.
I liked her final line to Hardison. It was something like..."I have these feelings...for Pretzels"
I like Parker and Hardison alot as more of a Laurel and Hardy. I think they have good chemistry together on the missions, but I don't feel alot of sexual tension between them.

Yeah, Parker owned this episode with her facial expressions. She was really funny.
I liked Elliot's face too when he was dealing with the FDA lady.
Pretty fun episode and I enjoyed it, as always. Not the best show around by any means, but consistently fun with great characters.

Yeah, Parker was the best part of the show this week. The job was personal to Nate, but the con itself wasn't anything special. I was actually disappointed in how they just "ran into" the client. I know it mixes things up from the standard client seeking them out, but it just throws me out of the show. Also, I realize the show is what it is, but the broad bush of overt corruption with which they painted the pharmaceutical industry/FDA and the frank callousness of the CEO was a bit too much.

Yeah the con itself was kinda predictable. Elliot getting worn out by the FDA lady was hilarious though especially when he started to recall all the places he went in Boston.
I thought it was OK in relation to the last few eps. Not exactly a criticism since I enjoyed the last few. Are they going to return to that main plot involving that Italian agent?
