As far as I'm concerned, Peter's taking an offering with one hand, then shoving away the person who gave it because he's "above" that kind of thing with the other. If his tender sensibilities are that offended by how he got off, he should have turned himself in. He wants to be free, but he wants Neal to know he's better than what it took to get him off. And he's shown a complete lack of empathy for Neal's position; it's all about his wounded honor

I didn't say Peter looks like a saint or anything. He's being an asshole. But I understand his actions, just like I understand Neal's. I have more empathy for Peter right now, because I think he's really struggling to define who he is. He's shut everyone out --- he's even been shutting El out to a certain extent, and it's painful to watch.
As for Rebecca....I didn't want her to be Neal's romance of a lifetime. I just wish that the writers would give Neal a break. I want him to get a chance to be a little happy.
It *is* getting to the point with Neal that the Blue Sky approach is becoming somewhat delusional. I know JE has described the character as an eternal optimist, but at this point I think most people would have either developed a substance abuse problem or opened a wrist. Good lord.
