The Connelly/Bulger twist is a stroke of genius. Keeping the whole WC backstory in mind (even just the part the higher-ups know about), it's totally unrealistic that Peter would currently be on the fast track to DC. A year after having been relegated to the Cave. After being suspended. After the Pratt thing (even if he was "found" innocent, it's still a big black spot on his bright white career).
Seeing the higher-ups wanting to have the famous Burke of the Caffrey-Burke partnership, the one that seemed to work so brilliantly, represent the FBI after the Connelly/Bulger fiasco actually makes sense. And it's now my new head canon (until the show will reveal what this Bruce character is really after).
