but the whole deal with the Nazi loot seems to be more and more of Mozzie's escape than Neal's - especially his insistence on dealing with it now.
I chalk this up to Mozzie thinking he's doing right by Neal. I'm starting to wonder if part of the reason Mozzie is so quick to run is to get out before Neal has a chance to change his mind. Both their goals had been that one big score that would set them up for life, and Mozzie wants that just as much for Neal as for himself, and so doesn't like the idea of Neal settling for less just to live on the straight and narrow.
The whole set up is just leaving me going, "Where's the insight into Neal? We're not getting enough of that!"
Yes! This is what's been bugging me, I just couldn't put my finger on it. I've been missing how things were in season one and I think this is why. We're not "really" seeing Neal's indecision. We're given hints, moments that give us the idea that Neal is dragging his feet and that he's being given reasons to stay, but nothing quite as in depth as what we got with previous seasons. I'm sure as season three progresses we'll be getting more undecided!Neal, but that we haven't really gotten it quite yet is starting to become frustrating.
