Hmmm... if I was setting this up for a season-long thread, I'd have Neal and/or Mozzie find out that the "stolen Nazi loot" was indeed actually traceable and would actually make a great deal of difference in some rightful owners' lives. Because I think Neal is certainly sentimental enough to be bothered by THAT.
How cute was the adoption promo, with Willie Garson holding a kiddo at the end of it?
Was it his actual kid? [link]
Yes, I think it was. That was an adorable promo.
Also, the wee Mozzies in the episode were v. cute.
Yes they were! And who was it that played Mozzie's foster father?
I don't know - both older and younger versions looked familiar to me but I can't attach a name to either.
Wasn't one of them Ernie Hudson?
I wasn't quite with Parker's freakout over leaving the body, or the conversation that followed --I admit I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed. But, I absolutely adored Elliot's spontaneous hug in light of the push-off at the beginning. Just so random, and like he thought he was doing a nice thing. Spencer is a cat who only likes to sit in your lap when
he
feels like it. Not when you pick him up and make him do it.
they were actually filming on Mt. Hood in a freaking blizzard.
Jesus fucking Christ, that's pretty stupid and dangerous. I was wondering how they shot that, because it did look pretty real, but damn. Stupid. People die on Mt. Hood. My brother actually does some ice climbing, and he's cancelled climbs (on Mt. Hood, among others) because of weather conditions and avalanche warnings. Anyway. Sorry. Rant over. I'm sure they had emergency procedures in place and beacons and all that.
The story about them jumping out the window is still funny, though.
I also liked this episode of WC. The prom picture, the fight cutting a little too close to the bone, and Peter and Neal teaming up against Moz for his own good. Moz and El are so fun together. I'm so glad to get a chance to really appreciate Tiffani Thiessen.

It's sort of in character for her, though, to have freakouts over random things, triggers she doesn't even know she has. It's sort of in line for the backstory they gave her. Amoral, to a degree, unbothered by most conventions, straight-line objectivity. And then, random freakout over the unexpected.
The jumping out the window story is utterly charming.
