"Previously on White Collar..." "Neal:" "I broke into Peter's safe." "I had the list in my hand." "I was ready to take the treasure and go." "Then why didn't you?" "I have a life here." "I run on this, and New York is just a memory for me." "He stole a Raphael!" "Conjecture, your honor." "And I pursued." "And I haven't forgotten about the Raphael." "Ohh!" "Neal coded his letters." "And we cracked it." "Don't know what they mean yet, but we will." "I'm -- Agent Kramer." "Head of the bureau's D.C. Art Crimes unit." "So you're the one who taught Peter everything he knows." "I'd say this moment was inevitable, Mr. Caffrey." "Peter:" "Neal's my C.I. He's also a friend." "You think once a con, always a con?" "I think you have to protect yourself when they fall." "You have the treasure." "I didn't steal it." "You son of a bitch!" "I don't care." "You have it." "Where is it?" "It was here." "He already moved it." "Mozzie?" "Of course it was Mozzie." "I didn't think he'd move it this fast." "What is it?" "This is a letter from the U.S. probation office." ""Because of your outstanding service," ""including recovering the treasure" ""and catching Keller," ""the U.S. probation office is convening a hearing to discuss the commutation of your sentence."" "What's that mean?" "It means no anklet." "No nothing." "You could be a free man." "Holloman:" "State your name for the record, please." "Neal George Caffrey." "Mr. Caffrey, do you understand why you're sitting here today?" "I do." "The U.S. attorney has petitioned a Rule 35 motion on my behalf, which, if granted, would commute my sentence and set about my own recognizance." "In essence, you want to know if I've earned my freedom." "You've done your homework." "Yes, ma'am." "You've already served two years of a four-year sentence under the supervision of Special Agent Peter Burke." "Yes, ma'am." "While confined to a tracking anklet, you've helped Agent Burke clear an impressive 94% conviction rate." "We work well together." "It would seem so."

"Who would have thought?" "[ Chuckles ]" "You came into this legal system as a criminal." "The question before this board today is -- have you changed?" "I believe I have." "Over the next two days, we'll be interviewing some of your closest acquaintances and colleagues." "Then we'll have you back to make a final statement, at which time Agent Burke will give his summary recommendation." "Any questions?" "No, ma'am." "But may I say that the last two years of my life have been the best " "You'll have time for all that two days from now." "Yes, ma'am." "This is impressive, Mr. Caffrey." "I hope the real you lives up to who you are on paper." "I hope to exceed your expectation." "You're free to go." "Moz: "Free to go."" "Quite an inspiring turn of phrase." "Except "You're free to stay" might be more appropriate." "How's it looking?" "Oh, flip a coin." "[ Sighs ]" "Regardless of what the committee decides, this is my home now."

"Oh, a huge one." "Makes Canis Majoris look like a night light." "But I will say no more." "I'll ask no more." "Oh." "There seems to be someone missing from your commutation witness list." "Yeah, sorry about that, but having a known felon speak for me doesn't qualify as a good character reference." "I am a felon, but I'm not known -- at least in bureaucratic circles." "I stand corrected." "But I've already got plenty of people on my side." "Elizabeth, June..." "Sara." "Really?" "Yeah." "Good." "What about the Demi-Suits?" "Mm." "Jones and Diana?" "Wild cards." "[ Chuckles ] Oh, and the Suit himself?" "Well, considering everything that's happened -- with the treasure, with Keller " "Peter could go either way." "Think he's decided?" "I don't know." "Oh, hold on." "Agent Kramer, the D.C. Art Crimes grand-père -- he's speaking?" "Kramer was supposed to submit a written report on behalf of the bureau." "If he's speaking in person, that's more than a formality." "Well, what does that do to your chances?" "Well, I can't imagine it improves them." "You know what?" "Worst-case scenario, he says no, and I stay on the anklet with Peter." "Well, behind every worst-case scenario, there's a worse worst-case scenario." "Isn't there a child whose balloon you need to pop somewhere?" "Oh." "Yeah." "Negativity -- force of habit." "I'm...sure it doesn't mean anything." "Yeah." "Nothing." "[ Knock on door ]" "Hey."

"No." "I haven't." "So, what's so important you couldn't call?" "Why is Kramer speaking at my hearing?" "Don't let that put you on edge." "Peter, I'm staring at two cakes here." "One celebrates my fate, the other seals it -- I am on edge." "Why is he here?" "I don't know." "For whatever reason," "Kramer has decided to keep me out of the loop on this." "He's keeping you out?" "Yeah." "But I've got an inside man." "How'd it go with Kramer?" "He had me digging through files till 3:00 A.M." "What's he trying to prove?" "I don't know." "When he talks about Caffrey, he talks about him in glowing terms." "I noticed that." "He seems to respect the hell out of him."

"And this lets me spread out." "And this is the room where we find the truth." "That's how it's supposed to work." "[ Chuckles ]" "I need to stretch my legs." "Walk with me." "You've got something on your mind?" "You're still pulling Neal's casework." "Is there something going on I should know about?" "Matter of fact, there is." "I'm worried about you, Pete." "You're worried?" "Yeah." "The music box, Garrett Fowler, the u-boat." "These 515s read more like Pulp Fiction than case summaries." "[ Chuckles ] What are you saying?"

"And I want to make sure he's not gonna hurt you." "You want him back behind bars?" "Oh, no, Pete." "He's much too valuable for that." "Meaning?" "I want Neal working for me." "In D.C." "When did you first meet Neal Caffrey?" "The day he was released from prison." "They had sent him to this horrible little fleabag motel." "And you had no qualms about taking in a convicted felon?" "Absolutely not." "Not Neal." "You see, after my husband passed," "I..." "I was living in this big, empty house." "And..." "Neal changed all of that." "I think of him as a blessing." "Byron and I always wanted a son." "[ Voice breaking ] I wish he was still alive... so that he could finally meet him."

"Nice." "[ Footsteps approaching ]" "What are you thinking?" "I'm thinking we need a third cake." "One with a file in it?" "One that says "Bon voyage."" "Kramer doesn't want to put Neal away." "He wants to keep him for himself in D.C." "He'd take Neal away from you?" "For my own good, but that's not..." "What is it?" "One night, from sunset to sunrise," "I gave Neal full immunity to tell me everything he'd ever done." "Wow." "And he did?" "Oh, boy, he did." "But he has full immunity." "It was my immunity, not the bureau's." "If Kramer digs up these things " "Neal could get the maximum." "Forget D.C. Forget the anklet." "He could go back to prison." "For a long, long time." "Have you told him?" "No." "Hon..." "I can't." "When Neal's threatened, he gets in even more trouble." "Talk to Kramer." "He's your friend." "He doesn't know the Pandora's box he's opening."

"He was like a son." "Hell, I thought I'd brought him all the way around, but he couldn't change who he was." "Well, you know, just because you slapped cuffs on your C.I." "doesn't mean that I'll have to do the same to Neal." "You know the story of the frog and the scorpion?" "Mm-hmm." "Neal's the scorpion." "He can't help who he is." "But he will sting you." "And you'll both drown." "In D.C., I can keep an eye on him." "[ Chuckling ] What happens in two years, when he's a free man?" "Who's to say he will be?" "That's what you're after."

"Neal:" "Sara." "Neal should not go free." "In two years time, when his sentence is over, he's earned that right to decide his own life." "Peter..." "And until then, Neal's staying here, with me." "Sara:" "Kramer is going to subpoena my files?" "That means I was close to the Raphael." "Yes." "I knew it!" "You stole it!" "Mm, you caught me." "Neal!" "This is so great!" "I've spent years looking for that painting." "How close was I?" "Kramer cracked a coded letter that I wrote in prison that includes a partial address of where I hid it." "So you think I have the other part?" "I know you do." "Oh, my God." "I was so close." "Yes, you were." "Mm." "Well, we already paid out that claim years ago." "You owe Sterling Bosch $15 million." "Shh, shh!" "If I stay out of prison, I will work it off." "So, a coded address in a prison letter -- that seems kind of chancy." "Oh, I left off the zip code." "And the address is on Main Street." "You know how many Main Streets there are?" "Probably thousands." "19,364 -- at the time." "So the address Kramer found means nothing." "Unless he gets his hands on that zip code." "Is this what you're looking for?" "Yes, it is." "Roosevelt Island?" "I found this digging through a boozy courier's trash." "I knew I shouldn't have given up this lead." "Is this the only copy?"
