Ironically, just after this episode my life got strange and hectic in a variety of ways, so I haven't yet been able to see if the pattern continues. But yeah; I feel like the show has an increasing trend toward Highly Questionable Moral Decisions, which I feel like I'd enjoy a lot more if the show seemed to realize that this was something that bore interrogation. (I am all for questionably moral activities in fiction! Just, I need there to be some narrative awareness that these things are questionable.)

But then, White Collar seems designed to frustrate me by giving me delicious layers of moral complexity and then ignoring those and cooking up something fun and lighthearted. *frustrated grabhands*
