* FiveStagesOfGrief: Mozzie and Peter discuss this one year after they think Neal died:

'''Mozzie:''' Ah, Stage Three... bargaining. Myself, Stage Four.\\
'''Peter:''' Depression? I would've figured you for denial.\\
'''Mozzie:''' No more conspiracy theories. […] He gave me this card just before the job, and for the longest time, I thought he knew. He knew he was gonna die, so he gave me this to say good-bye. And if he knew that, well, it must have been a con. Neal Caffrey's greatest con. But it wasn't. Thus, I move from denial to depression.

* BatmanGambit: In order for Neal to successfully fake his own death, Keller has to try to betray him.
* BetrayalInsurance: Neal has activated his anklet so that the FBI can find him and Keller. Subverted, when it is revealed that Neal not only anticipated Keller’s betrayal but actually counted on it.

* BoomHeadshot: Peter shoots Keller in the head when Keller threatens a pedestrian, and then points a gun at Peter.
* BreakingTheFellowship: Diana goes to DC one year after Neal’s “death.”
* CallBack: Mozzie tells a story to baby Neal, referencing the time Neal and Peter had to deactivate a bomb on a submarine:
-->'''Mozzie:''' And then using the magical box with the map inside, the white knight teamed up with the dark knight to find the treasure in the submarine. But the evil warlord got there first and forced the knights into the submarine, which was booby-trapped with TNT. […] So the knights find the treasure, but then the warlord tricks them and uses dark magic to make it disappear.
* TheCaper: Stealing the Federal Reserve is a very well planned out crime: The panthers smuggle the equipment into to the warehouse in coffins and coffin cars, and have a limited amount of time to carry out the crime and flee just in time when the police arrives.
* CatharticCrying: Peter does not cry when he sees Neal being wheeled into in the ambulance, nor when Neal basically says goodbye to him, nor does he cry when he and Mozzie see his body in the morgue. But when he gets Neal’s anklet handed to him and he is alone in the hallway, he sits down on one of the chairs and starts sobbing.
* ChekhovsGun: Neal's tracking anklet serves as this in the series finale. He spent most of Season 6 being entirely off-anklet due to being undercover in a semi-long-term, high-stakes operation. However, once they've caught the Pink Panthers and Neal slips away with Keller, Neal—who knows that Keller plans to betray him—secretly puts his anklet back on to help Peter find him and Keller in time to stop the latter.
* CoffinContraband: The Pink Panthers have hidden their supplies in coffins so that they can smuggle it into the warehouse.
* CradleOfLoneliness: Peter holds Neal’s anklet in his hand while he cries after thinking that Neal has died.
* CreatorCameo: Jeff Eastin, the series creator, appears as a homeless man watching Mozzie climb down a manhole.
* DeadGuyJunior: Thinking that Neal has died, Peter has named his son “Neal” too.
* DeadPartner: Peter thinks that he has lost Neal, who was basically his buddy cop partner.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: After six seasons, Neal finally gets his freedom when he fakes his death.
* EiffelTowerEffect: The Eiffel Tower appears in the ending to show that Neal is in Paris after faking his death.
* TheEnd: The screen displays "Fin" (French for end) at the conclusion.
* EurekaMoment: Peter realizes that something is going on when he and Elizabeth receive an anoynmous bottle of Bordeaux, and remembers a key given to him by a hospital worker after Neal's death. He then realizes that it may be the key to one of the containers where Neal was spotted talking to a woman.
* EvilGloating:
** Keller taunts Neal with Kate's death when he tries to betray Neal.
** When Keller briefly holds a pedestrian hostage, he taunts Peter with the fact that he has done something to Neal that will kill him.
