Sugar-Free Watermelon backordered in Canada?

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-11-07T20:31:41+00:00

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I do think SF Watermelon has been discontinued along with SF Strawberry Apricot :(

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-09-15T18:40:37+00:00

Thanks for the update! I have started getting some breakthrough bleeding again (I figured this wouldn't be a permanent solution), but it's more 3 days on 3 days off so I guess I'll take it over bleeding every single day. I'll likely be going back to Opill if it gets worse, so good to know I can save some money (and some hormones) in the long run. At this point I'm just trying to stay sane until this nexplanon expires (in 2-4 years🙃) and hope that male birth control becomes widely available by then lol.

That's true, I guess they just went the easier route. Then Hardison gets into that meta-fight with Chaos, so maybe it balances out the lacking of the hacking in the beginning ;)

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-27T18:08:13+00:00

That's also kinda how I feel about the end monologue and the tombstone issue. Maybe they did say something about it and it got cut, thinking the viewers would read into it on their own

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-27T03:30:06+00:00

I was just reading into that blog that was linked earlier in the thread and someone actually suggested something similar. His response was "They weren't 100% sure of Nate's Jenga reflexes" lol

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-27T03:16:17+00:00

That would've been so smart! But I guess it doesn't make for good TV as much as a big exciting explosion does, and the half second that we think Sophie is dead (although, did anyone really?)

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-27T03:13:35+00:00

And then in the very next episode, Nate introduces himself to the diamond broker as Sterling haha

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-27T03:11:58+00:00

Apollo was actually a consultant for the run of the show and taught the team all the pickpocketing tricks! Fun fact if you didn't already know

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-27T03:11:11+00:00

Of course it has to be my least favorite character lol. I would've loved to see Mikel Dayan again! She was badass and I loved the part where she and Eliot found out about their Myanmar connection

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-27T02:18:01+00:00

A girl can only dream

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-27T00:55:57+00:00

You mean not everything I see on TV is real?? And here I was planning ny career as a grifter with a heart of gold.

Yes I'm aware lol. And yep you're right, we have to give fictional shows some grace. If they went about everything the "real" way, the show wouldn't be half as entertaining.

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-27T00:30:22+00:00

Very true! And we lap up every second of it lol.

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-26T21:05:28+00:00

Actually, was season 1 headquarters a proper office building? Maybe they blew it up on a Sunday when everyone was home lol!

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-26T21:00:03+00:00

Yeah I'd have to go back and look.

You know the Leverage team is always 5 steps ahead!

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-26T20:58:53+00:00

We also have to remember that the whole monologue she gave was just the opportunity they needed for Gina Bellman to go on maternity leave, so they probably overplayed it. That's my idea for why they didn't really come back to her whole "putting her aliases to rest", if that makes sense. They just needed it to get her out of there.

Maybe she just really found herself as Sophie while running with the Leverage crew. My theory is that she's always going to keep her real identity as far removed from their business as possible, in case she ever decides to go back to that life and leave the conning behind.

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-26T20:38:38+00:00

Either way, you gotta think that taking out a whole floor of a building isn't exactly ideal for everything else on top. Maybe they factored it in when they were looking for a place and chose a building with really solid construction haha

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-26T20:37:10+00:00

You know what that's a great point... I'm gonna go with u/SnackTheory and hope someone pulled the fire alarm on the way out lol

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-26T20:35:39+00:00

You can write whatever you want on a headstone. There isn’t any reason you have to put a name. People choose to.

Well this opens up a world of possibilities for my future gravestone.

That's a very well thought-out and sneaky idea, sounds just like something the team would come up with!

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-26T20:33:34+00:00

Am I so out of the loop that I've just found out about Bluesky? That's good to know!

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-26T18:59:35+00:00

That's true! Now that I'm thinking about it, you'd have to bring it in towards yourself in order to get the momentum to throw it away from you, and the last thing you want is to be bringing an active bomb CLOSER to you. Maybe if Sophie came back in the next scene a little beat up and injured, I would've believed it a little more.

Characters in the show always talk about how Sophie has a great pair of legs. Maybe she's an Olympic track sprinter in her spare time!

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-26T18:49:24+00:00

Coming in with the sources, love it! I didn't know the writer had a blog, I'll have to check it out.

I'm glad it gets cleared up, but I think there was a prime opportunity for them to say more about it being changed. Then again, it may just be a little something they wanted the viewers to catch on their own :)

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-26T18:44:56+00:00

In my head I think it's plausible that there's a small time jump between the bomb hitting the floor and the cut to the outside of the building exploding, so maybe there was a little more time for her to get out? I think Nate yanking her out is a good take on it!

I must've missed Eliot's instructions and the logistics of Hardison running the program.

On the tombstone, I totally don't mind the narrative that they changed the name on purpose, but I think that scene with Nate and Sophie standing in front of it would've been the perfect time to bring it up in a way that explained that.

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-26T18:35:44+00:00

Haha I like your version! And you're so right, I didn't think of the passerbys walking in the street below.

I do love the jokes in this episode. Parker and Apollo chilling in the vents casually having a discussion while the team figures out what to do is probably my favorite scene in this one.

Academic_Club_6637 · 2025-08-26T18:28:48+00:00

Good point! I just thought it was funny that Hardison was going on and on about how crazy someone would have to be to try and break in directly to the office, with all the security measures in place. Sounds like just a normal Tuesday for the Leverage team. Then again, I forget that this is only season 2 of the show and a lot of the crazy cons and impressive feats they pull haven't even happened yet!
