What is White Collar About?

“White Collar” is about the most unlikely of partnerships between a con artist and an FBI agent who have been playing cat-and-mouse for years. The story unfolds after Neal Caffrey (Matt Bomer), a charming criminal mastermind, has been caught by his nemesis, G-man extraordinaire Peter Burke (Tim DeKay). After escaping from a maximum-security prison to find his long-lost love, Neal is nabbed by Peter once again. Rather than returning to jail for this daring getaway, Neal suggests an alternate plan: he’ll provide his expertise to assist the feds in catching other notorious and elusive criminals – in return for his freedom.

Initially wary, Peter quickly finds that Neal provides insight and intuition that cannot be found on the right side of the law. Tiffani Thiessen plays Elizabeth, Peter’s wife, an intelligent, high-profile event planner. Willie Garson plays Mozzie, a friend of Caffrey’s who has a strong distrust of the Feds and an unyielding belief in conspiracy theories about everything; with his ear to the ground, Mozzie is always tapped into what’s happening on the street.
