Ooooh! I forgot to mention that. Yeah, that was so adorable. How far has she come that she was gentle and supportive of these guys?

And the team could have stuck the cams on their shirts or on the walls, but they did it on coats. Awesome.

Should I tell them it's the age of the geek? They'll figure it out. And Parker doing the homework!

Loved Parker & Hardison so much in this ep!

Parker and the coats, Eliot out-badassing (I know it's not a verb, I do not care, Eliot makes it a verb) the interrogator, Hardison and Parker being adorable... Deb and I loved it so much.

I'm also wondering how the setup with the CIA guy is going to dovetail into the subplot with Jack Latimer (the guy who's been profiting off their cons) later on in the season. I'd be surprised if those plots don't intersect.

Cannot wait for "The Girls' Night Out Job." Cannot wait.

It looks like we're all wrong and the CIA guy isn't coming back. At least that's what Rogers is saying. Huh.

But "The Girls' Night Out Job" was ABSOLUTELY worth the wait, wasn't it? ::squeals with glee::

I was way behind, as usual, but fortunately Comcast Xfinity On Demand still had "The Experimental Job" available and I watched it last night.

Fiction As Truth FTW! Besides hazing = torture, there was the completely shameful way military veterans are neglected (read: abused) by the system.

Bonus points to the scriptwriters for using Stanley Milgram's experiment on obedience to authority for the scene with Parker as a psychology student/volunteer.

Also, what they said about the people involved in university psych research being just kids. One of the reasons I switched majors was discovering just how much psychological research uses college students as subjects. Oh yeah, there's a demographic that applies to society in general, uh huh.

I need to write about that at some point. I didn't realize how much research is based on college students until I started working for the APA. Anthropologists don't base their work on college students, so I didn't know this :D

And man, this was an awesome episode! Getting both Milgram and Zimbardo in there made me happy.
