Kate Beckett quotes from Castle

Beckett

So the FBI doesn't have any murder in their database that match this M.O.

Castle

Which leaves us with my theory. Our victim was dabbling with black magic, and she conjured up a demon.

Beckett

Or, maybe, she ran afoul of some obscure religious sect and they sacrificed her to their pagan deity.

Castle

What are you doing?

Beckett

Making stuff up, just like you do.

Castle

Yeah, because that's my job. It's your job to follow the evidence. You're messing with the natural order of things.

Beckett

Do you find it odd that Alexis has gone to everyone but me on this case?

Lanie

She hasn't gone to Perlmutter yet.

Beckett

Yeah, well, no one does, if they can help it.

Beckett

...Castle and I are about to become a family, which is weird enough as it is. And he and Alexis have this whole history that has nothing to do with me. And it kind of feels like when it comes to the two of them, I'm always gonna be on the outside.

Lanie

Perfect families don't exist. It's gonna be up to you to find a way to make your baggage match their baggage. It's up to you to make your own history.

Castle

She ever get any visitors? Possible that she, uh, worked out of the home?

No, sir. That is not possible.

Beckett

Well, then who paid for the rent?

[Haughtily] Detective, we have a well-earned reputation for discretion and guarding the privacy of our clients.

Beckett

Privacy ends when murder begins. Now I want the name of whoever is paying for this unit. And if you don't have that, then go get it.

Castle

I love when you get angry. I mean, at other people, besides me.

Castle

Can I say something that'll probably annoy you?

Beckett

[sighing] Since when do you ask for permission?

Castle

Touché.

Beckett

There's not a shred of evidence that Tyson is alive, let alone involved in this.

Castle

Tyson doesn't leave evidence, not unless he wants us to find it. Like that deleted photo. No evidence, plus meticulous planning, that's vintage 3XK. And this case has it in spades.

Beckett

Castle-

Castle

And you wanna know some other 3XK classics? Using people that look like other people. Using a killer to act on his behalf. Beckett, how can you not see it?

Beckett

What I see is the guilt that you feel.

Castle

This isn't about me.

Beckett

Look, when Tyson escaped, he outsmarted all of us. But you've always blamed yourself.

Castle

[Nearly yelling] Because I'm to blame. [Calmer voice] It's him. It's Jerry Tyson.

Beckett

Don't chase ghosts, Castle, okay? It's not worth it, trust me.

Castle

[While holding the baby] I think Lanie is right. I think he is hungry. Um, how about you finish up here, I'll grab a uniform, and we'll just go pick up some stuff for him.

Beckett

You really want to do that?

Castle

Of course. Highly qualified. I have an RHD in childcare.

Beckett

And an RHD is...

Castle

"Ruggedly Handsome Dad."

Ryan

Ah.

Castle

I don't know if we should just be handing him [Cosmo] over to strangers.

Beckett

Castle, we were strangers until this morning.

Castle

How can you be logical in the face of that face?

Castle

A heist were nothing was taken... Maybe this is a classic "no honor among thieves" situation. You know, heist goes wrong, they fight.

Beckett

Where someone gets shot running away with a baby?

Castle

Not-so-classic "no honor among thieves" situation?

Beckett

No.

Ryan

This is Lieutenant Delia Burton. She's a fire investigator with FDNY. Detective Beckett, Mr. Castle.

Beckett

Nice to meet you. So this was arson?

Well, it's looking that way. I found miniscule traces of accelerant at the flashpoint.

Castle

So the killer set the fire to cover up the murder?

Except there's no accelerant on the body, and the fire's flashpoint is deep in the building. You know, normally when you're disposing of a body, you're gonna make sure it burns.

Beckett

So maybe our victim surprised the arsonist.

Castle

And the arsonist killed him, silencing him as a witness?

Lt. Delia Burton: That's how it looks to me. Then again, homicide's not my specialty.

Beckett

No. Uh, but fire is. Would you mind keeping me in the loop in case you find anything else?

Sure. As soon as I know what happened, so will you.

Castle

Whoa. What was that?

The building. You guys should probably go.

Castle

[turning and hurrying away] Sounds good. See ya!

Beckett

[embarrassed] I'm marrying him.

Usually, there's a file embedded in the video with data on the camera. But it's been stripped out.

Castle

Can you tell where it was first uploaded?

[typing] Let me see... Looks like the video got bounced around the Net from site to site. But this is where it started.

Beckett

"Pyrolicious.com." Really?

Wow. Okay. A site that caters to fire fetishists.

Beckett

I didn't even know there was a fire festish.

Castle

The actual term is "pyrophilia." Further proof that the Internet has something for everyone.

Beckett

[whispers] I'm not gonna ask how you knew that.

Beckett

So, how's Sarah Grace?

Ryan

Oh, man, I tell ya, she is just my perfect little angel. [Shows them a picture]

Beckett

Oh, she's so cute. Wow.

Esposito

Yeah.

Beckett

Is it me or, or does she look a lot like Esposito?

Esposito

Yeah, she does.

Beckett

Wow.

Ryan

Really, Beckett? I expected that from jackass, but not from you.

Beckett

I don't know Castle. Maybe your mom's right. I think elopement's a great idea. There's no planning, no lists. All we do is, we just get married.

Castle

Beckett, I promise you, there is a perfect date for our perfect wedding and we will find it. Trust me.

Beckett

I do.

Castle

Oh, wedding humor. Nice.

Castle

He was at an amusement park and I can tell you which one.

Lanie

How?

Castle

Well, as a connoisseur of carny food, there's only one amusement park that has both fried clams and funnel cake, and that park is...

...Coney Island.

Lanie

Okay, you two creep me out when you do that shared brain thing.

Castle

These are communications to and from the Iranian mission.

Yep.

Beckett

That's incredibly illegal.

Yep.
