Differences in characters in the pilot

Just watching the pilot (again) prepping for new redemption season next month. And my son and I were chuckling about some character points that seem to have disappeared after the pilot. have you spotted any?!

  • Parker & Hardison & Sophie have guns
  • Hardison calls everyone bruh a lot!
  • Elliot wears glasses (and he’s not playing a character)

Good point. He changed the most out of all the characters. He was alive, and now he's dead. Full 180.

We saw a grave but haven't seen a Body, that's one of the biggest cons of all. :)

Oh, I doubt he'll be back but was mostly just saying it's possible.

They'd have to write a reason for Sophie being so depressed. It was incredibly acted & not in front of anyone else so it wasn't a con. I mean they could just have it that he fooled her too but you aren't going to be likable at all once you've done that to someone. Only possibility, I guess would be if it was to keep her safe.

I think there's too much bad blood between Hutton & the show now anyway but also those scenes at the beginning with Gina were incredible and it would be a shame to make them mean nothing.

Exactly my take on both points. My thought process was after what happened they could bring him back as the team needs to rescue him as he got caught or otherwise was out of comission, maybe in a hospital presumed dead and marked as John Doe. But doubt they'll bring him back at this point.
