It's Wednesday, it's January, that means it must be time for SOME THREE THINGS.

Sam's Three Things About White Collar, episode 2.10: The Flatware Of The Covenant


Sara would totally be in there too but I couldn't find a good image of her in the right pose.

1. I've spoken before about how the costume designer hates Sara's breasts, and I think I've been pretty well vindicated on this point by that episode. Mind you, otherwise she was fabulous. She really does love to hit people with her baton! She wants to paint the whole boat! She's going to prank call Peter! SHE WILL PAY YOU BUBBLE.

2. This whole episode was full of priceless reactions. Jones when he finally gets in on the secret ("Ballerina goes around on top?"), Neal's "OH SHIT GIRL" face when Elizabeth's seducing a stranger by phone, Peter's scrutinising double-take when Sara tells Neal it's nice to see him fully clothed -- actually, everything Sara says to or about Neal in front of Peter visibly baffles him, which I find hilarious. Just, so many good reactions and the actors play off each other so well.

3. AHAHAHAHAHA wow okay Peter on a horse was a slightly contrived moment of awesome, but I honestly couldn't care less that it was Slightly Contrived since AHAHAHAHAHA PETER ON A HORSE. Five bucks says he worked at a track in high school. (Also, Neal, honestly, try not to be quite so visibly turned on by it, you're embarrassing yourself.)

3a. I'm pretty sure Elizabeth had catering in for their little Top Secret Meeting, owing to the fact that all the sandwiches in the (hilariously giant) basket of sandwiches on the table had fancy little toothpicks in them. Because Elizabeth is the most awesome.

This was the first WC episode I saw in real time and not via my computer and/or netflix. And it was so awesome. But for me, one of the best parts was Mozzie telling Neal that the music box contained directions on how to build something. I just watched the first disc of Alias (my favorite TV show, White Collar is probably tied with it now) season 2, in which there is a music box which tells you to build something.

If I could write fanfic for WC, there's an Alias/WC fanfic about zero-point energy somewhere.

Alias is MY favorite show, but for absolutely no good reason. Have you seen it all or are you watching it for the first time? Because seasons 3 and 4 are a bit hard to watch, but season five is possibly my favorite. IT IS WORTH IT.

I also hadn't considered the music box connection, which is ridiculous since I'm finishing up season 2 of Alias myself (though to be fair, I stopped in the middle a few months back and just got started again, and watched the music box episode ages ago). Thanks for reminding me!

It is my absolute favorite show of all time (though WC is a close second so far) and I've seen all five seasons more times than I can count!

The first thing I thought of was the two music boxes, mostly because I had just done a rewatch of all of s1 and the first part of s2 of WC and watched part of the second season of Alias again. Plus, I try to connect everything to Alias ;)
