White Collar
Recaps

We finally get to see and hear Kate interact with Neal - and it definitely made this episode worth it. Surprisingly enough, there are more clues to what she is trying to say. This time, she actually uses her voice - which means Neal must be getting closer to figuring it all out..esp. about who the guy with the pinkie ring is.

It bothers me to no end the "cat and mouse" game Neal and Kate are playing. I guess it's good for ratings, but C'mon! Enough is enough already. I am sure White Collar will drag this story line out for the rest of the season.

Yet, there was a couple really funny parts to this week's episode, "The Portrait". For one, anything involving Peter and women - makes it very humorously awkward. He is a handsome looking man, but when it comes to being hot and sexy, he can't foot the bill. Neal on the other hand...yeah, he should be taking Don Juan DeMarco lessons from him.

What we are really interested in seeing is some hot sex scene's with Elizabeth and Burke. That is one aspect of this awesome show they have left to the viewers imagination. We know Elizabeth has it in her - what with all her post experience in 90210!

Neal being the jack of all trades is also a little far fetched - do we really believe that someone That good-looking, is that smart and talented to paint an exact replica of the painting? Be serious please. They should have left the artistic talents to Mozzie.

This week kept us ever amused and also intrigued to see what happens with the whole Kate storyline. Let us know your thoughts on this weeks episode.

Until we meet next time, we leave you with our favorite quips from last night:

Elizabeth: Wow honey, I am impressed - I can't believe you got in there (the nightclub). | permalink

Criminal: Monogamy is the great tragedy of beauty. | permalink

Peter: Have you ever met a woman -
Neal: Brittney - Brittney Nicole - Seventh grade...what? I had a gap in my teeth. | permalink

Mozzie: Oddly Bi-polar - I'd rather have some oysters. | permalink

This week White Collar didn't give us much into finding more about Kate's whereabouts. We do find out one piece of the missing puzzle - the X in the champagne brand name is used on the mysterious map as "X marks the spot".

To where and to what? We don't know yet - nor do we understand why it has to be so difficult for Kate to relay this message to Neal. It seems that they share a mutual love for brain puzzles.

We know that this is all leading up to a very climatic scene in White Collar - one that will most definitely test the trust and bond between Peter and Neal.

Elizabeth works her way into the show this week by helping her friend Dana's husband get out of the tangled web he is in. She pretty much wears the pants and decides that Peter and Neal will help him get out of jail and prove his innocence.  They track down how they framed him and in the end save the day. Yay! 

But really, the best part about this weeks episode is the introduction of two main characters - Mozzie and Peter over a couple drinks. And by a couple we mean a lot.

Although Mozzie did not give him his real name, you can tell that they are already forming a bond, which is so very nice to see. It's like they are becoming the Mystery Inc. of the FBI - an irregular group of men working together to fight crime. Can you already hear the Beverly Hills Cop theme song playing in the background?

A lot of background work was laid in this week's episode "Flip of the Coin". We can't wait to see what happens next with Kate and Neal. Maybe she will finally make an appearance?

Before we go, we leave you with a few of our favorite quotes from this week's episode below!

Peter: (to Mozzie) I thought you would be taller.
Mozzie: Me too. | permalink

Patrick Aimes: I've always believed that the best way to hide something is in plain site. | permalink

Peter: While you are here, have a drink.
Mozzie: Oh well, I don't drink.
Peter: Well, tonight you do.
Mozzie: Gin's good. | permalink

White Collar hasn't lost its steam to keep us engaged and wanting more. This week in, "Book of Hours" our guys are hanging around some interesting mob types.

The "Book of Hours" is actually a very old and priceless Bible that the head mob guy had stolen from him. This guy does an alright job of playing a mob guy, but a mob boss? C'mon! We were expecting to see a James Gandolfini look-a-like from The Sopranos. I guess those days have come and gone and they aren't the same as they use to be. He did have that sweet endearing quality to him that makes us fall in love with The Godfather types.

Neal is still as hot as ever - especially how he is the only one on the whole FBI squad that wears a fedora - and boy does he wear that fedora well! Not only is this fine man good looking - but smart to boot! He is able to figure out what a whole team of FBI agents could not - that the real criminal mastermind is none other than a local historian lady. Who would've guessed!?

We are happy to report that Elizabeth is getting more involved with the crime solving. She plays the sexy, wifey at home, with all the answers - quite well! We hope to see more of her and maybe some steamy scene's with Mr. Burke? Better yet, with Neal?! Oh, a girl can only dream!

This episode ends with another clue to Neal's ex-girlfriends whereabouts. She is definitely trying to tell him something, but what? And why so secretive? Can't she just text? Email? AIM/MSN/GCHAT?! I guess we need to keep tuning in to see how this story unfolds!

We leave you guys with a couple of our favorite quotes from "Book of Hours." What was your favorite line from last night's episode? Let us know! Comment Below!

FBI agent: I need a cigarette after that pat down. | permalink

Elizabeth: (To Neal) Why don't you just ask her out?
Peter: Good point. (To Neal) Do you think it will work?
Elizabeth: (Without hesitation) Yes!| permalink

Peter: A woman? A regular Cindiana Jones? | permalink

FBI agent: I think we have a technical problem
Peter: That's one way of putting it. | permalink

Peter and Neal are up to their necks in models due to Fashion Week taking New York by storm. 

For any guy watching this show, you gotta love the multitude of gorgeous model extras that really have no point to the episode. If you're a girl, here's looking at you hottie Neal Caffrey! 

The new FBI agent is hot in an Amanda Peet kind of way, but her role in Threads really isn't much convincing. Are you really suppose to believe that a size zero has the ability to take down a man four times her size? I don't think so!

Once murders start to pile up on their White Collar crime, Neal realizes that they must step it up and use their witness as bait to catch the international criminal. 

Overall we think the second episode proves to be a great followup for the show's pilot. We're still waiting to see our favorite Bayside High girl breakout and own her role on USA's new hit series. 

What do you guys think of this weeks episode? Check out our recap in case you missed it!

Not only is Neal hottie-Mc.Hotterson, but he has the best lines in the show thus far - here are a few of our favorite quotes:

Neal: Sex games gone wrong? (Referring to the murder of Dmitri) | permalink

Neal: No Peter, menacing - you look like a person whose kid just struck out. | permalink

Neal: (Looking at the scantily-clad FBI agent) So where do you keep your gun? | permalink

Neal: 64 and counting -
Peter: Why is it that when Neal Caffrey throws a party 64 models show up?
Neal: No wait 65 - what? They were twins!

USA has a new hit on its hands with White Collar starring irresistibly hunky and ever so charming Matt Bomer as Neal Caffrey. Playing his opposite and pseudo partner is Tim DeKay as Peter Burke.

Peter is in charge of a large investigation on trying to find a criminal that goes by the name of The Dutchman. Lucky for him, Neal ruins his chances of freedom by escaping prison a couple months before his sentencing is over. This means that with Neal's super smart brain cell power, Peter might be able to catch the guy.

Tiffani Theissen also stars as Elizabeth Burke - Peter's way-too-sexy-for-him wife. Her character really doesn't have a point other than drawing in old Saved By The Bell/90210fans - right now. Hopefully, as the season progresses we will see some breakout plotlines for her character.

Willie Garson, Stanley from Sex and the City, plays Mozzie - Neal's friend who somehow knows everything about anything. He gives him the much needed leads on cracking the cases. How does he do it? I guess we will have to wait to see.

So far, the only problem that I run into is the shows timing - Friday nights at 10pm? I guess it's okay if you are a parent or someone with out a social life, but for us that do like to head out, we must remember to set our Teevo's and DVR's. If you are like me living in ancient times before the amazingness that is digital recorders, I guess your social life will have to wait until after 11pm.

There is much to love about this new show, from the incredibly sexy cast (and Stanley to boot!) to their fun and interesting rapport with each other makes this show a must see. Don't just take our word for it - in our full recap, but check it out! Friday night's are finally worthy enough to stay in!

The banter has already begun between the two main characters, below check out some of our favorite quotes of these two fellas:

Peter: Did you just lie to the priest?
Neal: Do you think Dianne is attractive?
Peter: Yeah
Neal: Then we're good. | permalink

Neal: Did you really put Elizabeth under surveillance before you asked her out? Peter, I underestimated you. | permalink

Peter: You moved?
Neal: (looking around the Park Ave mansion) Yeah, it's a nicer place don't you think? | permalink

Burke: You look like a cartoon!
Caffrey: This is classic Rat Pack - this is Devore!
Burke: Oh, sorry, Dino. | permalink
