Fun fact! McSweeten is the only minor character that appeared in every single season of Leverage!

"Agent McSweeten sends his best. And he also sends a, uh, haiku."

HE'S ADORABLE and I really wanna know what his haiku says. What'll it be, like...

Agent Hagen - hi! Your work is inspiring Hope to see you soon

Can I just say something about how much of an amazing example of a minor/reoccuring character FBI Agend Todd McSweeten is? They handled him masterfully. We see him grow, and change, we get to know him, but he’s not even in that many episodes! He’s starts out simple with his puppy dog crush on Hagan (and, honestly, his crush on her rivals Hardison’s crush on Parker for how adorable and sweet it is, I will forever feel bad for him). He’s a new agent, bumbling around, getting promotions because the team lets their cases fall into his lap (The Wedding Job, The Bank Shot Job, The Fairy Godparents Job), but he doesn’t quite feel that he deserves them (The Morning After Job). He’s just trying to help people and maybe get Hagan’s attention along the way. He writes her a haiku!! (The Boiler Room Job) That’s amazing. Do you know what I would do if a dude wrote me a haiku and then sent it to me by way of a guy named Bob? I’d cherish the heck out of that thing.

And then, to top everything off, there’s The DB Cooper Job. Man. Not only is his dad also an FBI agent, but he was the lead agent on the DB Cooper case? We get to see a different side of McSweeten, we get to see him deal with his dad’s death, and the fact that he died before he fulfilled his dream of catching Cooper. We got to see Todd McSweeten decide not to arrest his dad’s best friend when he found out that he was Cooper, and we got to see McSweeten as a kid. This is an amazing way to handle minor/reoccuring characters. We see McSweeten change over the course of the series, and what we don’t see we can fill in for ourselves. By the end he’s less naive, but retains some of his idealism, plus he’s relatable, just a guy trying to do his job, make his way in the world, feeling like a bumbling idiot sometimes. I just love Todd McSweeten.
