Oh, this was great! Thanks for surprising me White Collar. But then, I was surprised that this was already the finale (I don't watch promos either).

Like I said, my suspicion ran along the lines that James is to awake the hidden original artist in Neal. Never underestimate what the recently deceased would have wanted/what would have made them happy even if that's not as good a reason as to do it for yourself.

While we haven't seen the DNA test results, Peter has. And I'm willing to trust him on this one.

Cute.

I guess it might be overkill to off Ellen and James. On the other hand, I can easily see him go the route many returned-after-vanishing parents take on TV: bring emotional turmoil for the lead (check), tell them you're proud of them to resolve the main daddy issue (check), effect character development (Neal finally…

I really liked the episode and you have to give the writers credit for deftly interweaving the question of what defines The Original in both storylines.

The exchange at the gallery started with Neal and the French guy talking… well in French which was subbed. Then Neal turned to Peter with some exposition which was in turn subbed in French. Loved it.

Why would you suggest Jones when Diana has not only seniority but has been Peter's right hand ever since? If the position opens and Peter passes in favour of field action she is the obvious choice. Sheesh guys…

And here I thought you already were a staff writer for Hunted.

I have to say, The Rundown Job was the most fun I've had with Leverage since The Rashomon Job. There was Die Hard 3 in there, Entrapment, and about every biohazard movie ever made - and I loved it! I agree that the Eliot/Parker/Hardison troika worked particularly well and if I wasn't so in love with Sophie, I'd say…
