Images of June |
June Ellington is a wealthy widow, and the landlady and friend to Neal Caffrey.
Character Profile[]
June was married to Byron Ellington, a con artist who passed away prior to the show. The show doesn't explicitly mention their child(ren), but she has two granddaughters, Cindy and Samantha. In Season 6, she mentions a nephew, so it's safe to assume June has at least one sibling.
Though her husband was a career criminal, June loved Byron and misses him very much, often reminiscing of their time together. However, as such, she's not unfamiliar with running cons or afraid of crossing a line or two, even going as far as aiding (ie, offering resources, playing small roles) in some of Neal and Mozzie's schemes throughout the series.
Season One[]
June is first introduced in "Pilot", where she meets Neal in a thrift store while donating her late husband's old suits. After a short chat, she offers to put Neal up in the spare room in her house in exchange for walking her dog, Bugsy, every so often.
In "Vital Signs", Samantha's name is removed from the organ transplant list for seemingly no reason, so Neal and Peter Burke go undercover to find out why. At the end of the episode, they manage to get Samantha's name back on the list and on her original spot in the list.
In "Home Invasion", June helps Peter find Neal after the latter disappears in the course of an investigation.
Season Two[]
In "Countermeasures", June introduces Neal to Ford, an old friend and partner of Byron.
