Neal just shook his head. Even when he didn't want it, crime came to him. Just like with the treasure from the U-boat. He hadn't wanted Mozzie to steal it, but he hadn't walked away from it until he'd been forced to make a choice. And even after he walked away, it came back to bite him on the ass in the worst way he could possibly imagine. Peter nearly lost Elizabeth. Neal almost lost her. But only one of them was to blame for that.
It didn't matter if he tried to choose the right thing. The wrong thing always waited around the corner, and everyone around him stayed (rightfully?) poised for him to pick it instead.
