White Collar Post Ep Dish - 3.04 - The Dentist of Detroit

[elrhiarhodan]

This episode better not let me down - it's an extra special Mozzie episode - and as I wrote in a post yesterday, I've been Kripke'd (my fan fic is proven in canon). So I've got high hopes - and the promos are very, very good.[Poll #1756987]As always - keep it safe, nice and sane.  Love to you all!

Interesting. I feel like we watch two different shows--or maybe we just watch from such different angles that there's no reconciling our views.

Peter wasn't anxious to arrest Moz--only to take him into protective custody. But he had to know the truth about to what extent Mozzie was guilty of the Dentist's crime. If Mozzie really had committed pages of violent crimes, then Peter would have (rightly) had to arrest him.

But Peter didn't jump to that. He let Neal convince him to hear Mozzie out. And he did not arrest Moz, but only kept him under protective custody while he sought verification that Moz had nothing to do with the violence.

I think Peter proved himself a mensch from first to last. And I think that Neal has every reason to trust him.

But, like I said, I don't expect you to agree; we just watch the show from different angles.

I think I wanted it where Neal went to Peter to ask for help for Mozzie and that in deference to Mozzie's help before Peter offers to help.

Instead :( it was all mistrust and gruding help.

Which granted I'm okay with too - just seemed like mixed signals! Either Peter respects Mozzie or he doesn't. He either somewhat trusts Neal or he doesn't. To me their argument was the most honest part of the episode.

I liked it. Loved Mozzie's backstory! Loved that Mozzie had faith in them and wasn't burned by it. I like that Peter and Mozzie ended in more respect. I just wish it had started better :(
