Ramblin's of a Bear with Very Little Brain

So upon reflection, I think the answer is yes. The character in question would be Kate. And, I think over time fic has convinced me that she was more conniving than I originally thought on my own. I'm still not sure how much she was or was not in collusion with Fowler, but I think my first thoughts lined up more with Neal's thinking, that she loved him and was being used. But certain fics that I cannot name placed seeds of doubt in my mind about her sincerity. I'm not entirely sure now that she wasn't working with Adler directly from the time she forced Neal's hand when he escaped from prison. Certainly, canon never gave us enough information to know her motivations.
