Post-Ep Dish - S5.05 - Master Plan

I have to say that I've been looking forward to this episode for a long, long time. Back in May, a bunch of friends and I went set stalking in Brooklyn on a whim. We didn't get to see any filming, but met the lovely and very tiny Mrs. Burke. The "Walcott" Mansion is some uber-upscale club in Brooklyn, btw - not a private residence in the Upper East Side.

Oh, and besides meeting Tiffani, I did get a peek inside the wardrobe trailer. Sadly, no suits or anything quite so interesting...just a lot of bras.



Anyway, I may just post a bunch of promo shots instead of the usual squee of consciousness… Neal in THAT outfit is just enough to send me into incoherence.



Apparently, there will be no end to the incoherence…

Sexy Burkes!!!!! El's tattoo!!!! Wet Peter!!!!!

(NEED SCREENCAPS NAO!!!!!!!)

The sexy baseball metaphors for the win!

And canon for Sick!Peter - he hasn't been sick since 1996. He's never taken a sick day.

Bee keeping...swarms spring to mind! I'm with you on that, Neal. But you've got to give into your criminal id...so a sticky, waxy hive would be a good for storing contraband

Elizabeth tutored the suspect?

El is definitely not trusting Neal.

Old family friend of a wealthy family?

I guess this is where El's connections to the art world pays off. She works for the Wolcotts or for the gallery???

Love Neal going to get permission… Have to run it by Peter!

Does your wife's intuition count?

Like Peter becoming a Red Sox fan?

I can butle...Neal Caffrey - at your service!

(And "butle" or even "butel" is NOT a word, sorry Neal. Check the etymology for butler. A task more fitting for Mozzie, I'd say.)

(ETA - I stand corrected. "Buttle" is a word. Archaic, but a word none-the-less)

(Insert sexy Neal picture)


Neal, of course, understands the subtle nuances of service

Rick Carlyle - Domestic Artist!

Gotta love the hand behind the back. Neal is a gentleman's gentleman, that's for certain.

Nice uniform, slick! I swear that El's just the tinest bit turned on...and why not? Neal's the sexiest butler I've ever seen.

And Peter's sick - how much H/C Canon can this fandom take?

Loving Dom!Jones taking care of Peter! But don't love Peter puking, though. I'm with those other agents getting sick - have a sympathetic stomach.

Miss Bea - how cute - the bees, Miss Bea...

And clever Neal is clever! And hot and sexy

(insert hot Neal in Butler Uniform picture)



Awww, Peter's jealous of Neal putting the moves on Elizabeth, and Elizabeth really doesn't seem to mind.

What's with Moz and the experimental drugs?

I'll stay here and observe...well, let's see!

Peter in bathrobe!

Neal's a very bad influence on El - you're just realizing it now after 5 years?

That's NOT how you draw blood!

And that's an injection syringe…

And why draw blood when you just need a mouth swab??? Because he's using fake blood (I saw this on L&O SVU a few years ago - perp set up a fake vein or blood patch).

Okay, need more of THIS to bleach my brain…

(INSERT PICTURE of HOT HOT HOT NEAL)



Awww, Jones in the background.

AND THOSE TIGHT PANTS...guh!

Poor Elizabeth...fired, too.

I don't like that guy - he calls her "Liz" - she's NOT A LIZ!!!!!!

The vet set up a false vein...TOLD YOU!!!!!!!!! Penrose drain!

So, the real Patrick is alive - makes sense, he's being forced to give up the right information. And so there's a reasonable explanation for not using a DNA swab.

Peter as Angry Croatian. No, as Angry Pole! ( [livejournal.com profile] kanarek13 will be very delighted, methinks).

The Von Kesslers Pay me to handle their problems… Menacing Peter is menacing! Or maybe, sexy!menacing Peter is DAMN SEXY!!!!!!

Love the key toss - and now we get to see the BMW in action!

Must be some Butler College!

I'm not a butler, I just play one on White COllar.

(And there's a pedal harp in the corner...in the foyer… What is it with the WC set dressers and pedal harps????)

OH GUH!!!!!!!!!

PETER NIPPLES IN BED. And to satisfy my dearest [livejournal.com profile] miri_thompson, El's still got the Rack of Doom!

BASEBALL, NIGHT GAME … and slightly under-the-weather sex!

Nice way to end an episode.


Recap:

Give this one a solid A for lots of teamwork, no annoying mythology, good banter, plenty of bromance, sly wit, and of course, the trifecta:

#1 - Shirtless Peter with Nipples
#2 - Neal in a butler's uniform
#3 - No #3 … Brain exploded (but maybe Bad Peter in the slick suit)


If anyone has a brain or a set of ovaries left, let's hear your think and not so thinky thoughts, okay?

Loved it!!!

I mean, seriously, are the writers trying to outdo us fanficcers or what?! \o/

OT3-ness, bromance, sick!Peter, sexy!Neal, nekkid!Burkes, double entendres, a case that actually made sense (not that this is what I'm watching WC for), and last but not least, Mozzie being Mozzie.

I just... *happy flails*

Loooved the BMW scene. I mean, I miss the "I'm doing the driving for you"-Taurus, but, as a Beemer driver, this makes me very happy. Excited!Neal was excited. D'aww. (And he's a damn good driver! I wonder how many getaway cars he has driven in his time...*g*)

Of course, for me, the best part was poor Peter having to keep saying "Düsseldorf" (and they actually used the "ü" on the whiteboard!). I wanna know how many takes it took because poor Tim kept screwing up the name of that damn town. LOL! "Cologne" is much easier to say, and is close by. And prettier! *g*

But anyway.

Butler!Neal... *wanders off to rewatch*

Honestly, the BMW scene confused me...my only thought was "So your big selling point is that one has only to push a button in order to steal your car????????"

Um, I was actually referring to the car chase scene - I loved Neal showing off his driving skills and loving being able to just "step on it", as it were. And Taurus or not, the Beemer is faster (not to mention sleeker and more impressive) so it's way cooler to use in a car chase scene.

I highly doubt Neal was impressed or excited by pushing a button. (Which, by the way, is not how you steal that car. You can push all you want. Neal could sit in my car all he likes, but without my car key, he still won't be able to turn on the engine...unless he hot-wires the car, of course, but then the button won't make a difference anyway *g*).

No, I think Neal just liked the car, the interior, the luxury in it. He was beaming when Peter allowed him to sit behind the wheel, which I thought was fitting, as he was sitting in a Beemer. *g*
