pomrania: lynne-monstr: “I’m gonna cut your freaking head off and serve it on a platter.” Tags by @smokeandsong: #okay but utterly unexpected but totally consistent character trait of having absolutely no ego when it comes to getting a job done#fucking professionals care about the objective and only the objective and don’t care if that looks like losing a fight or acting stupid or#or whatever other nonsense would be in combustable contact with the bullshit masculine ego of a team’s hitter on a shittier show#like i know that’s what the boxing episode’s about but it shows up over and over again throughout the series in all sorts of contexts#cause we keep forgetting#we keep expecting eliot to snap or go all unnecessarily butch when it isn’t appropriate but he NEVER DOES#the only one with good judgement on the team#so basically this episode is a delight because it’s a garden-path sentence of eliot’s-so-invested-he-loses-control#and then he switches it off like a light switch because it’s a grift it’s always a grift#80% con man 20% hitter and literally everyone always forgets it#DID U KNOW this tag essay was actually just brought to you by the fact that i want an excuse to remind everyone#again#that eliot spencer once threw a game of rock paper scissors. -- source link
