Peter hugged Neal first when they saw each other for the first time in six weeks--he even said, "Its good to see you."That act, and that gesture, would have been unthinkable when Peter caught Neal at the start of the series. But the friendship has become so strong over the years, that Peter not only is willing to throw his career away, but he even dragged his wife and two partners into his scheme to save Neal as well.

After the daring season finale that saw Neal break his parole - at Peters suggestion and permission - it was assumed that he wouldnt just be able to reenter the FBI fold and have his old job back. There had to be repercussions. Tonights episode showed the audience what those repercussions were, but they dont fall on Neal--instead, Peter is the one who pays the price.

Neals been a criminal for a long time, but in tonights episode, he admits it casually to Peter as he reminisces what little he knows about his father. While other season-long arcs saw Neal continue his criminal enterprises, this is the season where he plays by the rules and instead seeks to find out whether or not his father was a murderer. Even though he doesnt come out and say it, it is heavily hinted that Neal believes his life of crime may have begun when he learned the truth about his father.

"You wouldnt have believed me." - Neal"You should have given me the chance." - PeterOver the last four years, the friendship between Neal and Peter has seen its ups and downs for sure, but it seemed like we were now at a point where they trusted each other implicitly. Peter, in particular, has laid his job on the line multiple times for Neal in the last year or so, because he felt that Neal had earned that trust.

While tonights episode seemingly ignores the anger that Peter would have rightly felt towards Neal after what he pulled last week, and it does nearly nothing to advance the season long plotline of Neal uncovering his fathers secrets, it was still an entertaining episode -- but had the episode focused entirely on the first ten minutes, it might have been amongst the series best.In the first ten minutes, Mozzie tells a story to Neal and Peter about uncovering a storage closet that seemingly contains National Treasure-like clues pointing to a long-lost American artifact: the flag that George Washington carried across the Delaware River.

A lot of things that dont normally happen on White Collar happened on tonights episode.Peter ropes Diana into spying on Sam (and thus Neal) ... and is completely honest and transparent about it.Mozzie, upset about Neals dealings with Sam, sides with Peter and tries to convince Neal not to continue to mistrust everyone for this alliance with Sam.Peter blatantly breaks the law when hes in Alexs apartment and doesnt just allow Mozzie to find things "in plain view" -- he actually starts rifling through her things in a blatant Constitutional violation.

"I understand hes your asset." - Sam"Yeah. Thats part of the arrangement." - PeterSomething occurred to me while watching tonights episode of White Collar: Peter is Neals friend, but Neal is not necessarily Peters friend. Opinions may vary, but it was hard not to almost universally support Peters action in tonights episode -- even all season long.At the beginning of the episode, Peter and Neal make a pact to not share Ellens video with anyone--not even Sam. Neal comes awfully close to breaking that deal relatively quickly and invites Sam over the next day to chat. He does not ultimately show the video to him, but a large part of the reason why he doesnt is likely because Elizabeth showed up with gelato.

Through a series of flashbacks, we learn that hes not a murderer, but he was a dirty cop. He was caught taking money from a bust by his supervising officer who offered to look the other way if James did him some favors.Those favors involved working with the Irish mob run by a family called the Flynns. At first, the favors were simple: helping them escape police attention, taking out their competition, etc. But when James tried to leave the family, they framed him for the murder of his supervising officer, which eventually led to his family (Neal and his wife) going into witness protection.

(With a mix of forgery and money laundering thrown in.)

Instead, hes gathering info from people who might know where in the city the key from last weeks episode matches the skyline.
