The final two episodes of Leverage: Redemption‘s Second Season offer tie-ins to Sophie‘s (Gina Bellman) past. “The Museum Makeover Job” is the better of the two episodes with the team heading overseas to investigate what went wrong with a job and uncovering Sophie’s old boss Ramey’ (Ralph Brown) involvement. It’s a family affair all around as Sophie’s step-daughter Astrid Astrid (Alexandra Park) is the agent on the ground looking into the recent break-in. The follow-up episode deals with the crew being framed for a different heist inside the museum and working to solve the mystery and clear their names before being caught.
Highlights of the two episodes include Breanna (Aleyse Shannon) being a full member of the team, working well on her feet without a net, and no longer just a stand-in, Sophie’s confrontations with Astrid, the reveal that Astrid is Parker‘s (Beth Riesgraf) nemesis, and Eliot (Christian Kane) taking down an entire hallway of security and agents. Less entertaining was Harry‘s (Noah Wyle) over-the-top reaction to crawling around the vents with Parker. “The Crowning Achievement Job” offers a fine sign-off to the season, but “The Museum Makeover Job” is where the show reminds fans a bit of the old magic these characters created in Leverage.
