TV commentary:
White Collar- Ah'm skeptical! Last week, we found out Rebecca was a big faker. Turns out, she's an ex-MI-5 agent named Rachel Turner. Ha, she even had files on Kate, and I assume Alex and P-Sawyer (who's name I've forgotten on this) to be his perfect woman. Which is fine and good, I just have to call shenanigans on her having legitimately fallen in love with Neal. Like we just didn't see enough of their relationship for me to feel that she legit fell in love with him like that.
Like Neal thinks its a trick, but then he realizes she's for real, and tries to get her that way. And it would have worked, if the Feebs weren't so incompetent this episode- I mean, first accidentally tripping the laser (I would think they would've rigged up some set up so they didn't accidentally do something like that, rather than just hoping to be REALLY careful and stepping over it every time) then the FBI-undercover extras staring suspiciously at her in the park. Of course, its not like Neal didn't sound like a total liar when he was telling her they should run away together.
In the end, they manage to capture her, and she currently in federal lockup for killing the one guy. Which, killing a federal agent is a big deal, but wasn't MI-5 after her for selling national secrets? I figured someone higher up one get involved and she would be extradited back to the UK, since I figured treason trumps murder.
She does give Neal a call from jail, indicating she's getting out soon, but he doesn't take that threat seriously for some reason. Nope, he and Mozzie are gonna find the treasure, and Peter and Elizabeth act like everything is cool and they're going to live in DC happily ever after. Which I assume means something will happen in the next two eps that cause that to come crashing down.
