fajrdrako | White Collar 2x01: Withdrawal... (Reply)

What does the title mean? That Neal is drawing away from Peter, in the pain of losing Kate? Or that he is going through withdrawal from Kate, as if she were a drug? Or is it simply about withdrawing money from banks - in elaborate robbery plots? I hope it's all three, or more: a simple explanation would be disappointing.

I liked the way it opened - Peter making his offer to Neal again, us not knowing Neal's answer. Except, of course, we knew.
Loved Peter's covert meetings with Mozzie in the park. And the way he'll play along with him, but only so far.
I wanted more appearances of Elizabeth. If it's a choice between seeing her or seeing Mozzie, I'd rather see her. I also love seeing her interact with Neal, or with Neal and Peter together.
The Architect was incredibly arrogant, wasn't he? But not very interesting.
Loved the scene in the wine bar between Neal and Whitney, and the way he got out of going home with her by talking about his tracking device and prison sentence. Neal doesn't have to lie when he can just tell the truth.
Diana! That's a shock. I like the character so much - can I believe she'd betray Peter?

I also looked at the new White Collar season 1 DVD set. The gag reel is mostly flubbed lines, but there are some great moments. And the deleted scenes are very interesting - they include the scene in the Pilot with Mozzie in the key shop, that Marion and Vicky saw on Canadian Bravo. I thought it - and most of the deleted scenes - weren't very good, and they were right to delete them.

Love the picture of Peter kissing Neal on the cheek - if that doesn't turn up online I'll have to screencap it.
