Ep 8. As You Were

Neal and Peter are back to working together on a new case involving a stolen painting that is believed to have been destroyed in a fire. The painting in question is a rare piece by Monet, worth millions of dollars, and the thief is still at large.

Neal's expertise in the art world leads them to a former art dealer named Curtis Hagen, who is now living under an assumed name in the suburbs. Peter and Neal track him down and attempt to convince him to help them find the stolen painting.

Meanwhile, Neal is also dealing with personal issues, as his ex-girlfriend Kate has reappeared in New York and wants to reconnect with him. Neal is torn between his feelings for Kate and his loyalty to his colleagues and the FBI.

As they investigate further, Peter and Neal discover that the theft of the Monet is connected to a larger scheme involving the mafia. They must race against the clock to recover the painting before it falls into the wrong hands.

With the help of their FBI colleagues and some surprising allies, Peter and Neal orchestrate a daring plan to steal back the painting and bring the criminals to justice. But as they celebrate their success, Neal is forced to make a difficult choice between his past and his future.
