I love how much focus you put on Steele's love of old movies, and the opening with the snapshots of classic couples from the silver screen is just the perfect intro. And the song! It's not a type of music I would ever have picked for them, but the spirit of it is so very right for everything you do here with the meta levels of how the show plays with and subverts the gender clichés of the movies Steele adores, and how it is, of course, a rom com, but in a way that refuses to comply with the assigned male/female roles of that genre. And, yes, yes, Laura being awesome and kicking ass, and Steele being gorgeous and reading GQ (I may need an icon of that shot to embody the concept of GQMF *g*), and Laura kicking more ass in every imaginable way, and all the random shots involving the Casablanca poster, and Laura being in charge and Steele taking orders and, the two of them being marvellous together with their perfect comedic timing... You've just captured all of it so wonderfully here, I honestly can't stop grinning. Again, THANK YOU. <3333333333333

Kick-ass Laura Holt and the soon-to-be Mr. Bond when he was younger (and even prettier).
So much geeky, movie-obsessed, gender-bending, stereotype- subverting WIN!
Whoever you are, nonny, I officially love you!
