Another season of Leverage: Redemption comes to a close and it was a great episode to end on. It starts off where the previous one left off as the team tries to figure out how to get out of the set-up they’ve found themselves in.

So many of the jobs the team pull off eventually draw out parts of their personal lives with some jobs even taking place purely because of a connection to at least one member of the team. This time around is no different. They’re at the museum to initially problem-solve a job gone wrong for another Leverage team and now we’re deep in Sophie’s past.

Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir | Book Review

This post contains spoilers.

For a while now The Martian by Andy Weir has been one of my favourite books of all time (if not, my absolute number one) so I was nervous about going into Project Hail Mary (especially considering I didn’t rate his second book Artemis as high) but I’m relieved to say that I absolutely adored reading Project Hail Mary. To be more exact, I listened to the audiobook while occasionally following along with the physical book and I have to say, that was the best decision I made. While I’m sure the book is incredible enough to read purely using the physical/e-book, the audiobook just adds a little bit of flare.

A big aspect of this episode was to call back to 2×09: “The Pyramid Job” as references and ties to Sophie’s past come up again during this episode but with more explanation to progress things further while still leaving us on the edge for even more and it was fantastic.

This episode was so good! At its core, the story was interesting and honestly, done quite well. Sure, it maybe could have gone deeper but I appreciate how it was told and handled while also keeping that comedic tone that Leverage: Redemption has (including the original).

Leverage: Redemption Season 2 Episode 10: ‘The Work Study Job’ Review

The job this week is brought to the team’s attention because of Breanna. We see both her and Sophie go to speak with Emma (Erin Ruth Walker) after her work is stolen by one of the professors at her university: Dr Daniel Gray (Rob Benedict) and from the get-go, it’s easy to sympathise with Emma and get behind her and the team as they make plans to take Gray down.
