Having seen the WhiCo series finale, I'm now paying more attention to Neal and Mozzie's relationship while re-watching the show from the beginning. And let me tell you, their rapport is nothing short of amazing, especially in the first few episodes of S2, while Neal's grieving for Kate. The way Mozzie's helping Neal - and the way Neal looks at Mozzie in those moments, with so much fondness. It's fantastic.
And Peter's always been protective of Neal but never more than during their hunt for Fowler. Peter's so worried about Neal in these episodes, it's heart wrenching.
I still don't like how Sara was introduced. Sometimes, it seems to me that writers tend to overdo it when introducing new female characters, like they need them make a huge splash immediately. But that leads to a very grating first impression. And in the case of Sara I never got over it and I never warmed up to her, even though they did tone down her "action!girl" stunts.
At this point in the series, I prefer Alex for Neal as a love interest, not Kate or Sara. The scene where Alex gives Neal the cherub from the music box, there's something really magical about the way she kisses him, so very gently. The whole scene is beautiful.
