Leverage, Season 1

Nate:
How are we doing? How's the search?

Eliot:
I haven't started yet.

Nate:
Okay, you know, I haven't gotten one answer I was looking for today. What is it that you're doing? What's going on?

Eliot:
I'm cutting onion, deveining shrimp, uh, pan-searing some scallops. I've got 200 people I got to feed, all right? Back off.

Nate:
Okay, okay. Hmm.

Eliot:
What, you think the only thing I know how to do is bust heads?

Nate:
No, well, yeah.

Eliot:
Look, hold a knife like this—[forehand grip]—cuts through an onion. Hold a knife like this? [switches to a backhand grip] Cuts through, like, eight Yakuza in four seconds. Screams, carnage. People are like knives. Everything is in context.
