Jack & Claire Interactions Masterlist Pt. 8

We're coming down to the wire and Claire seems to be questioning her future with Jack and flirting with a policeman from Baltimore. Their relationship seems to be back on track now, but we all know what's coming. Because the last three episodes are intense, I'm going to include everything up till those right here. Enjoy it while it lasts...

E14: Custody

• A very bumpy walk and talk, and Jack compliments Claire's work. https://imgur.com/a/XBaXKyx
• I have a lot of experience sitting at tables in jails and lawyers are more than capable of standing up to account for the lack of space or inching a chair over. https://imgur.com/a/aDuCQw7
• Admiring gaze from Jack to Claire, especially right at the beginning. https://imgur.com/a/CDW3HyQ
• Y'all, he's practically in her lap lol https://imgur.com/a/vrkPDfo cont'd https://imgur.com/a/YHQGkJ4
• Sweet little smile to round out this episode https://imgur.com/a/MeSCUaQ

E15: Encore

• Eek. Jack wants the death penalty. https://imgur.com/a/ROucbLr
• Here we're seeing, especially at the end of the clip, the first big hints that Claire may not be able to do this work much longer. https://imgur.com/a/U2MZR6h
• Leaving the office together, cute interaction, invasion of personal space! The trifecta. https://imgur.com/a/i3MI8ln
• I love the way she looks at him here. https://imgur.com/a/GMBybgE
• They're in a more casual setting so Jack can put his arm almost around Claire. https://imgur.com/a/bZg1O4i
• And a very comfortable exchange as they leave the bowling alley. Good thing the death penalty wasn't an issue the whole episode! https://imgur.com/a/h7sZHDw

E16: Savior (with the fantastic Brooke Smith!)

• What's with Jack's mood? And he especially doesn't want to hear about "what's his name." Notice the way Claire looks back at him -- she's a little irritated and wants to know what gives. https://imgur.com/a/p6fkikV
• Yet here, Jack gazes a little too long at her at the beginning of the clip while fidgeting with his hands. https://imgur.com/a/CfDRq2i
• Very interesting seating arrangement, and he's deferring to her to run this meeting. https://imgur.com/a/Ck2vfe0
• Triumphant before their encounter with Dr. Olivet in the hallway. https://imgur.com/a/Ck2vfe0
• Jack yells in part because he feels unsupported by Claire as he plays with the Brady rules AGAIN. https://imgur.com/a/WgHbQeE
• He won't even look up at her now, although his attitude now seems to be about the case itself. https://imgur.com/a/tBqwZPC
• Claire's now running the case and providing emotional support to her boss and boyfriend as he struggles with the defendant's guilt. https://imgur.com/a/OVcwl6I
• As he did in "Trophy," Jack shows vulnerability here. He needs Claire to believe he's a good person despite his hard exterior. (And he takes a French fry without asking!) https://imgur.com/a/mkAkcAO

E17: Deceit

• Dammit, they didn't do enough with this line! https://imgur.com/a/uXEWeHU
• Eek. Claire looks a little shaken when she realizes how close this lady's story is to her own. https://imgur.com/a/kFOaP4A
• Their distance here gave me some temporary anxiety but his smile at the end brought me back from the brink. https://imgur.com/a/lZLyJXe

E18: Atonement

• Claire looks as if she wants to subdue a laugh here. Sometimes she can't help but love the cavalier version of Jack when they're in court or negotiating with opposing counsel. https://imgur.com/a/yMkanrm
• Don't accuse me of reaching, but I think he's looking at her in a non-coworker manner as she signs out. https://imgur.com/a/gPG0JHN
• Just like the first clip for this episode, she loves his humor here, and you can sort of see a sweet look before she finishes pouring her drink and stands RIGHT next to him as they talk to Adam. (Another exhibit, after his embarrassment during "Trophy" and some other instances in the office, bolstering the case that Adam absolutely knows what's happening between them.) https://imgur.com/a/W0OXs4h
• ALERT!!!!!! It's in the script! Listen carefully to this dialogue! https://imgur.com/a/gi45rZe

E19: Slave

• They're very close together both right before and after they get onto the elevator. https://imgur.com/a/z1PcP2k
• Nice restaurant, but Jack should've at least looked up to tell her she doesn't look too skinny! And I would've preferred a better adjective than "fine." https://imgur.com/a/Zjo4YsG

E20: Girlfriends

• Jack sits on the desk to make sure he's close enough to Claire... https://imgur.com/a/HY2eK1t
• Look below the table!!!!! https://imgur.com/a/y2qb2Py
• She sneaks a glance at him here but he keeps his cool. Good for you, Jack! This is a courtroom, after all. https://imgur.com/a/cyFNzVD

As we approach the end of our time together (at least via these posts), look back at the original Geocities Jack & Claire webpages.
