Kate Beckett quotes from Castle

Beckett

Good Morning, Lanie.

Lanie

Not from the way you sound. What's wrong?

Beckett

Men are clueless.

Lanie

Men… or just Castle?

Beckett

Did she have a grievance with Michelle?

Ryan

Oh, I’d say so. The morning of Michelle’s murder, a judge came down with a ruling in Samantha’s contentious divorce case. She lost big.

Castle

How big is big?

Ryan

Uh, Upper East Side apartment big, cars and boats big, half of her multi-million dollar net worth big.

Castle

That’s big.

Lanie

This is a 36-D Sultura.

Beckett

Oh, that’s high-end.

Lanie

Definitely. One of these could run you $200, $250.

Esposito

250$ dollars for a bra?

Lanie

Oh, but its okay to spend that on a pair of sneakers, right?

Esposito

A pair of sneakers is practical, okay? They gotta support your, um..

Castle

[Shaking his head] Eject.

Esposito

Okay.

Well. Hard to miss the irony of this situation.

Beckett

[In monotone] Senator Bracken, do you have any enemies? Is there anyone that you can think of that would like to kill you?

I get threatening letters and e-mails all the time, comes with the office. My chief of staff keeps a file.

Beckett

Anyone with a legitimate claim?

A man doesn’t get to my position with upsetting people along the way. Most of them aren’t crazy enough to wanna try to kill me. Present company excluded.

Beckett

[Sitting down] You know, Senator, I’m not the one that you should be worried about right now.

It’s just us here, Detective. A shooter on the loose, me in the crosshairs? Must be a dream come true for you.

Beckett

In my dreams, I’m the one that gets to pull the trigger. But you know what? If you’re not comfortable with me leading this investigation, you’re welcome to step outside and tell everyone why.

Beckett

Well, then I guess we’re stuck with each other. So, then let me make one thing clear. This man killed Melanie Rogers, and when someone commits murder, whoever he is, Senator, I will bring him to justice. No matter how long it takes.

Castle

Considering what he’s capable of, you would think Bracken would have more formidable enemies.

Beckett

Oh, obviously you never saw the letter that I sent him.

Castle

I did, actually. I like the way you dotted the “I” on “kill” was a little heart. It was a nice touch.

Beckett

Well, I was trying to give it a personal feel.

Castle

Well done.

Castle

Have them trace every IP address that accessed that site after 2:36 p.m.

Beckett

Which might take time, depending on-

Castle

What if she doesn’t have time?

Beckett

Castle, listen to me-

Castle

Don’t. Don’t promise me you’ll find her unless you can do it, because I would never forgive you…any more than I’d ever forgive myself.

Beckett

Tell me what happened with Douglas Stevens.

Castle

[gravely] I appealed to his humanity

Beckett

I didn’t think you had that side to you.

Castle

When it comes to the people I love, I do.

Esposito

Paris? What the hell is he doing in Paris?

Beckett

He thinks he can find her.

Ryan

What, so he's Liam Neeson now?

Esposito

Liam Neeson? The dude's barely Ashley Judd.

Beckett

Ms. Degarmo, I’m gonna ask you again. What else can you tell me about Roger Henson’s murder?

I don’t have to tell you nothing. I know my rights. You can’t keep me here.

Beckett

He’s dead. Tortured. I’m just trying to find the people that did it to him.

Listen, bitch. I don’t talk to cops. Now go get me my lawyer, and then go to hell

Beckett

[Rising from her seat, enraged] Do you have any idea what this is all about?! You think I’m some beat cop busting you on possession charges?! My partner’s daughter is missing, and you…! [throws the photos of Henson at Degarmo] …are in my way. Now, you don't talk to cops? I'm not a cop today, honey.

Castle

Okay, does anyone have a better solution? Because we need one. If not for me, at least for Beckett.

Beckett

Castle, that’s so sweet. You want me to outlive you?

Castle

Of course. Who else is gonna tell my tale of sacrifice and selflessness?

Beckett

Okay, so both of our victims stayed at that inn at the same time. So, maybe they were having an affair.

Ryan

Well, in 2008, Val would’ve been 24. Jason would’ve been 66. An affair would’ve been-

Castle

Gross.

Ryan

I was gonna say unlikely.

Esposito

Deep cover? I can’t believe he didn’t tell me.

Beckett

Espo, he didn’t even tell Jenny.

Esposito

Yeah, but I’m his best friend. She’s just the wife.

Beckett

Thus proving why there is no Mrs. Esposito

Esposito

Hey. It’s hard to find a woman for this much man.

Ryan

My name is not Fenton. It's Kevin Ryan. And I'm a cop.

What?... Cop?

Ryan

Yeah. And I'm placing the three of you under arrest.

Well, that'll be a hell of a trick considering Liam's about to shoot you and your girlfriend.

Ryan

Wait a second, Liam, before you do that, let me ask you a question. Where's your cell phone, huh?

What?

Ryan

Remember when we tussled back in the hall? Yeah, I picked your pocket. And then when you weren't looking, I dialed my partner and left the line open.

No way.

Ryan

He heard exactly where we were going.

Liam?

He's full of crap, Bobby. He's bluffing.

Ryan

Oh, am I? Why don't we meet my partner, huh?

Ryan

Yo, Javi, where you at?

Esposito

Right here, bro.

Ryan

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. No, no, he is former Special Forces. You do not wanna draw on him. Wanna meet the rest of my crew?

Ryan

Hey, Beckett!

Beckett

[approaching from behind Bobby] You called, Ryan?

Ryan

Don't let the looks fool you, boys, you don't want to mess with her either.

Ryan

Castle!

Castle

[stepping out from his hiding place behind Beckett] Seriously? I didn't... I didn't bring my vest.

Ryan

[to Bobby and Liam, as squad cars approach] Drop your weapons! Now.

Ryan

Maggie. You know, I pegged you for a lot of things. Never a killer.

Yeah, I pegged you for a lot of things, but never a narc.

Ryan

Actually, see, I’m a homicide detective. Which is why I know that you killed Jimmy the baker.

Jimmy the who?

Beckett

Oh, God. Are we actually gonna play this game? It’s late, I’m tired. Officers went through your house and they found your gun.

Ryan

Castle, how's the knee?

Castle

It's not the knee so much as the *boredom*.

Esposito

I thought you writers liked being alone.

Castle

Yeah, if I could write. But the painkillers make me a little loopy. Last night, I used the word 'speculate' three times in the same sentence.

Ryan

Hmm. You must be bored. You've actually gone "Rear Window".

Castle

Alexis got me those as a joke to cheer me up. I have not *yet* resorted to voyeurism.

Ryan

Then you are missing out.

Esposito

What? Let me see.

Ryan

No. Hey!

Esposito

Give me the binoculars!

Ryan

Dude, she was just about to take off her towel.

Esposito

[using binoculars] Oh, the towel's off.

Ryan

Yeah?

Beckett

[comes up behind them] Unless the body that you're looking at is dead, I suggest you drop those binoculars.
