Post Ep Dish - S4.03 - Diminishing Returns
Well, here we are, three weeks into the season, and we’re back to New York, with some interesting developments. Peter’s being punished, so our boys are still not together. And Mozzie, wherefore art thou?
What I don’t understand is why is Storage Wars winning the timeslot? I mean, I like the show, it’s kind of fun, but WTF? Who the hell would rather watch those bags full of ugly than Peter and Neal. NOT ME!
You know, I never responded to anyone’s comments last week. Wednesday turned out to be kind of nuts, Thursday was almost as bad, and you gals were playing to nice together that I didn’t need to step in. I hope to do better this week. I love you and I love our conversations.
And I hope to finish the comfort side of Six Hours to Freedom this week.
Once again, this mostly going to be incoherent flailing, but there's a time and a place for everything. Later tonight, head over to White Collar Fixation forjrosemary's incisive First Look at Diminishing Returns, and rabidchild67's ever brilliant Rabid Squee on Thursday. [/pimpage]
And here we go!
No “Previously On…” (thank goodness), but we have a somewhat somber opening …. Aww...flashbacks. “We’re going home”
Ohh new set - Neal’s bathroom! Very nice, very nice!
And Neal’s happy, limp is about gone.
Aw, Peter the Optimist!
Hughes is back, again. Jones and Berrigan are taking Peter’s caseload - everyone wants Peter back.
The CAVE - how bad could it be? VERY BAD! Apparently.
Patterson - almost as grim and one-note as Collins. At least he doesn’t shoot Peter in the leg.
Catalog those cellphones by SIM card...yoikes!
Poor, poor Peter. HUGS HIM TIGHT.
Neal!!!!!! Well hello, sailor! Boy does Peter look happy!
THE PICNIC AREA!
The Yard - I’m not in prison, I’m reassigned.
Neal - tell him. Tell him.
Ellen arrested his father, her partner - Neal doesn’t know everything. And timing is, as they say, everything. Patterson - you’re a bastard.
And Neal being AWESOME!!!!!!!! His solutions seem like they’re right out of every terrific fanfic written, right?
The guys can’t really freeze him out - they’ll try, but they can’t, can they?
And Neal is still being awesome...every five years for this guy? Smart - statute of limitations
Talk about clock watching...argh!!!!! Had a boss like that.
Neal and Peter doing cases…
And Diana to the rescue!
Neal’s like that little red devil on Peter’s shoulder.
Since when does Neal need keys?
I remember this scene from the publicity stills - and I thought that it was weird for Peter to be wearing an ID card and not a badge.
Love that shot of Neal.
Awwww - Peter and Elizabeth. Love those earrings, Mrs. Burke.
And speak of the devil, he will appear!
I don’t like him - He’s a Mets fan, I’m a diehard Yankees fan (sorry to hear that)
Nobody trades up from baseball. Now I can get on board with that!
El - you are HOT in red. You are very hot.
Peter in workout gear...oh, yum. OH YUM.
And nipples????? When do we get nearly naked Neal? He’s in a health club locker room, for crying out loud!
A grand - or five…? You better win that damn game, Peter! And who cares, you are one hot man when you sweat.
And still no nipples!
Christie and Diana went ring shopping !
MOZZIE! MOZZIE! MOZZIE! MOZZIE! MOZZIE! MOZZIE! MOZZIE!
No man is an island - you’ve retired from retirement.
Neal’s Mozzie’s frontman, awwww
And the treasure’s still hanging around. UGH.
“Who needs the fuzz when you have me?” Mozzie still gets all the best lines.
Confident Peter - is SUPER SEXY Peter. OH. MY. GOD. I NEED THAT CAP NOW. That blue tie, that suit, that SMILE.
Where did Peter go? To work, apparently.
Aw, Mozzie’s the best little elf!
Neal’s mom just checked out. Neal WAS in witsec!!!!!
Dad was a murderer? A cop killer?
Danny Brookes...awe
Mother’s maiden name was Caffrey. Father’s name was James.
And so the mythology for S4 begins. No music boxes, no man behind the curtain, no blood-soaked treasure. Just a boy wanting to know why his father was.
Okay - so you know the drill. Please park your thinky and not-so-thinky thoughts, your raves and squees and bits of utter happiness.

My DVR cut off the last few moments of the episode. I need to know what they said after Neal’s line : “You said there were lines my father would never cross, but he did.”
I’m not sure how I feel about Neal Caffrey being his real name. I guess some part of me always liked thinking it was the special name he’d given to Peter. It doesn’t make sense for him to use his real name in New York when everywhere else he used an alias.
I hope in the father-son story we’re inevitable hurling towards, there’s a part there where Peter and Neal’s father have a standoff over Neal, like about who is the more protective father figure or something like that. I’d love to see Peter show off to Neal’s dad how he was the one taking care of his son while he was off doing God knows what. Secretly though, I hope either Neal’s dad or the one who killed that cop are really powerful villains who give Neal and Peter a very hard time.

I like how he got his name and I really like the backstory - more that his mother just "fell apart" - which fits with my personal headcanon.
I agree that Neal's dad has to be a real villain (maybe the real juice behind Adler - still pissed off at how lame he turned out to be).
