Hello Everyone! Stats are back! And so are tuxes! Tuxes here, tuxes there, tuxes, tuxes everywhere!
.
I actually started getting screen caps for this episode over a month ago. I remember being excited about it because I knew Lee was in a tux. What I wasn’t prepared for was the large number of screen caps I would get of just him in his tux. Gwosaboghahbohbwos!! 
.
Part of the reason it’s taken so long to get a stats post done on this episode is that I just couldn’t get past all these tux screen caps and how to use them. So I decided I just needed to put them all together in one post and get them out of the way so I could focus on the rest of the episode!
.
This is pure fluff and eye candy….I hope you enjoy and just remember to breathe. What is it about this man in his tux???
.
.
TUXEDOS
Hi. What are you doing tonight?
Ummm, whatever it is you’re going to ask me to do? Excuse me while I pass out from holding my breath. And the man isn’t fully tuxed-out yet. Love the deep-v of his shirt. Ahem.
.
You should be able to break them. This is a priority situation.
They’re broken. Hey, where’d the deep-v go? Please get it back.
.
Meet me by the mall I’ll explain then.
No you won’t! You never really explain…but if I were going to meet this man by the Reflecting Pool at 9pm I don’t know that’d I’d really care.
.
Anyone else have the chorus from “Every Girl’s Crazy ‘Bout A Sharp Dressed Man” running through their head? Too bad this isn’t the ‘vette he’s leaning against (sorry, Jenbo!).
.
Oh dear. What a good looking couple. Too bad Lee can’t see the back of Amanda’s dress. Then he’d have something better to tell her when she asks if she looks alright. I wish we got to see these two dance at the party…I just wonder what havoc Lee’s bare hand on Amanda’s bare back would have wreaked!
.
It would have been a lot easier to dress if I’d know where we were going.
Relax, Amanda. You have gorgeous shoulders and arms and your dress shows them off beautifully. Besides, everyone’s going to be looking at Lee in his tux anyway. Is it just me or is this hair and facial expression new for Lee? What is he thinking here? Aside from the short Amandaramble, the dialogue in this scene is weird.
.
Are we allowed to dance?
As previously stated, I wish. Lee has a great profile. Especially in a tux. Nice, straight nose.
.
I do a pretty mean Cha-Cha.
Lee does not look impressed. I’m not that impressed. I don’t know how to do the Cha-Cha or if I’ve spelled it correctly. I’m impressed with Lee’s hair. And his flawless looking skin.
.
Well, what am I supposed to do?
Ummm, how about fall to the ground because you’re knees can’t keep you up anymore? Just how is this woman still standing??? I can’t imagine anyone is reading the text below this picture. I don’t know why I’m even typing it. Glory be. Is that one of the best Lee/tux shots of the series or what? Breathe, BJo, breathe. I think I could stare at this pic for hours.
.
.
Keep having a good time.
Yeah, cuz she was having such a good time before. Just how does Lee NOT see that Amanda is NOT having a good time? No wonder she says what she says in the opening scene of LOTP.
.
Screeech!!! Uh-oh, how’d this guy get in here? I’ve included it because this is Delano’s face when he first sees Amanda at the party. THIS is also what Lee’s face should have looked like when he first saw Amanda tonight – not that odd, new look. Actually, JD’s not that bad looking and he is in a tux. What is that gold thing on that woman’s head? An upside down ashtray?
.
Ahhhh, love serious Lee. Is Lee wearing guyliner here or is it just the lighting? He’s still gorgeous, regardless.
.
Awww, just look at him! He looks happy, doesn’t he? He’s just made a deal with Singer and now he’s come back to claim his gorgeous date, er his cover, and maybe finally start showing her a good time. Oh wait, they never have any fun at these things.
.
He’s looking…
.
And looking…
.
Where is she…still a little twinke in his eye…
.
Hey, there she…is that Aman -…
.
Uh-oh…
.
Lee is seeing something that he no likey.
.
No likey at all. What could it possibly be???
.
Well you know what they say….every girl’s crazy ‘bout a sharp dressed man! Especially one that is nice and charming and says things like she looks abandoned and that if he were the one with her he “wouldn’t leave her alone for a moment.”
.
Well, you handsome ding dong, what did you expect??? She’s doing exactly what you told her to do – having a good time!
Okay, so maybe Lee doesn’t like what he sees because he knows Delano is a bad guy and has been sincere with dozens of women. (I guess it’s okay to be sincere with dozens of women only if you’re a good guy. 
)
.
I think Lee is also struggling because he is feeling a touch of jealousy. Maybe he’s finally seeing what the back of Amanda’s dress looks like.
.
Ahh, but the look on Lee’s face is changing…he now realizes that Amanda is having a good time and he is not!
.
Now he has to watch her dance with Delano in case he tries anything! I wonder how many songs Amanda and James danced to? Poor Lee. I feel for ya, buddy. But that’s what happens when you don’t explain things to Amanda! Because you hardly ever do!
.
B: What about Singer? Is his information reliable? L: I don’t know.
More serious Lee. Gosh, he even has nice neck skin. I wonder if Lee is still thinking about Amanda dancing with JD. He doesn’t look very happy here.
Well, that does it for screen caps in his tux. Now, I know what you’re thinking…what about screen caps while Lee is trying to imagine Amanda as mysterious and exotic? Well, sorry, but you’re just going to have to wait for those, they were confiscated by the Dimple Patrol!!
I hope you enjoyed this fluff break and remembered to breathe! Just in case you’re a GIF fan, I’ve made a little one below that shows Lee’s re-entrance to the party after meeting with Mr. Singer.
Oh, and lest I forget, here is the link to the first SAAB post by iwsod!
"Just walk with me.." 
Just gotta say before I even started reading this post I noticed the number of comments on it : 97 ROFLMBO!!!! I think the people have spoken 😉
One more thing to add to your favourite tux shot above – lips! Need I say more? I don’t think so!
Porsche! PorschePorschePorschePorschePorsche! I think I was as upset as Lee when his baby went over that cliff! 😥
And definitely lurve that shot in Billy’s office where Lee’s removed his tie…thud! Every girls crazy bout a sharp dressed man…especially one that’s got that tie and few top buttons undone…
Makes me actually think of the Roxy Music song (& film clip) Avalon…yep could just see Lee there!

I loved the focus of Lee getting into the tux. LOVED.IT. But, you know what I love more than that, and even more than the complete tux? I love the look of the tie being undone and the shirt unbuttoned at the top. And his hair in that shot is perfectly unperfect.
It reminds me of how delicious he looks in The First Time when he is in the waiter’s tux and a little disheveled when he gets back to the agency.

I can’t understand how I covered the early eps with less posts.. I’ve since loosened my restraint! I think when we are done walking through the whole show I should definitely come back to these early eps and do them in more detail. The dialogue is just golden.. Except in this episode.. there is no dialogue in this episode.. right BJo? I don’t remember any.. ahem..
I love how you started getting the screen caps a month ago – did you need some recovery time before you could type and actually put some words with these pics BJo? You are a strong woman!!

I think the Lincoln Memorial should be ‘their’ place.. you know? and I do love it! they look stunning together.. love that black dress.. that is such a gorgeous style. I- want- one!!!
This is funny given our current conversation about Betsy Jordan and Lee’s being distracted by work at the party.. Lee is distracted by his work here IMHO and that’s why he isn’t yet noticing Amanda! but.. by LOTParty? things are sooo different
weird dialogue BJo? what dialogue??? I hear nothing..
I’m sitting down.. I’m well prepared. Lee in a tux calls for forward planning..
Glory be??? rofl!! BJo I suspect you umm might have umm actually had fun putting this post together! hey! smk isn’t suppose to be fun!!! oh yes.. breathe good reminder..

I should have known there was a reason we had another biggish earthquake this afternoon (and lots of little ones too). You were posting all these devastatingly handsome Lee pics! You should issue a general warning about possible earth tremors before you do this sort of thing in future. 😉

Shona–I hope you and yours are unscathed.
(It’s gotta have everyone thinking about Christchurch all over again–though thankfully these are more deeply centred.)
Be safe.

KC – I just remembered you’re a New Zealander too, right? I hope you and yours are safe as well.

Yep–I’m a Kiwi, but in the USA for a while longer before I move back. My family is fine–they live a lot further north than the current quakes…

Ack! Now I remember. Glad to hear your family is ok.

LOL Shona the earth moved. Literally 😉
On serious note though I hope those affected in NZ are ok xx

That really is remarkable! I think the warning idea may be a good one! I hope everyone is OK.

Very funny, Shona! On a serious note – hope you and yours are all okay. I just watched the video you linked and though how nice of the Civil Defense gentleman to tell the viewers to go have a cup of tea with an older neighbor if they live alone to see how they’re doing. There’s not much that a nice cup of tea and conversation can’t help you get through!

Yes, we’re all fine. Another bit of a thump (aftershock) this morning but nothing we can’t handle. Keep Calm and Carry On (and have a cup of tea, of course). 🙂

Shona, glad you’re all okay. Do quakes happen often where you live? We had a small one on the southeast coast (US) last year. I had never experienced one before that.

One of New Zealand’s nicknames is “The Shaky Isles”. 🙂 Enough said.

I am glad to hear you and yours are all right. I lived in Los Angeles most of my life till recently and no one would bother to even look up from their work or go outside unless it was a 5.0. I do remember being thrown out of bed in the ’71 earthquake and watching cracks in our foundation just appear. Hope the Shaky Isles settle down!
