In this new iteration, and new world, the Leverage crew have watched as the rich and powerful continue to take what they want without consequence.
Grifter Sophie Devereaux (Gina Bellman), thief Parker (Beth Riesgraf), hitter Eliot Spencer (Christian Kane) and hacker Alec Hardison (Aldis Hodge) have watched the world change over the last eight years.
Since their last job, it's become easier - and sometimes legal - for the rich to become richer and the powerful to squash anyone who gets in their way.
To address the changes in the world around them, the team finds new blood in Harry Wilson (Noah Wyle), a corporate lawyer who is looking for redemption after realizing he'd been sitting on the wrong side of the table for his entire career; and Breanna Casey, Hardison's foster sister who has a knack for computers, robotics and getting into trouble.
In this new world, the team will use their collective skills to take down a new kind of villain.
In Season 2, corporate bad guys and dirty dealers are stepping on the little guy in their quest for money and power and the Leverage team is back to teach them a lesson.
No matter the danger, when someone needs help, they provide... Leverage.
This time around, their criminal skills are put to the test by everything from a husband-and-wife team running a multi-level marketing scam and a shipping magnate dumping boatloads of plastic waste to a music producer who abuses his position over vulnerable women.
This season also sees an old friend of Sophie's unexpectedly coming out of the woodwork, making her question her choices.
In the Season 2 premiere, "The Debutante Job": The team pulls Harry back into the fold to help a journalist investigating the corrupt president of a small eastern European nation.
But when the journalist is grabbed, the team has to infiltrate a London Ball to extract him.
