Doyle quotes from Castle

[agitated] Whatever chain of events has just started now will result in billions of deaths that did not otherwise occur, you understand me?

Look, after the bloody energy wars of 2031, funneling

Castle

Energy wars!

Yeah, you know fascists control the power, trying to control the world's energy supply for a select few - don't worry, we defeat them - turns out, that one of these new sources of power is a tachyon generator as it opens doors in time-stream continuum, allowing us to travel back in time! But of course because of the possibilty of abuse, it was technically regulated against, secret from the public...

Beckett

We have a witness that saw you leaving Shauna Taylor's apartment shortly after she was killed...

I'm getting to that - look, I'm a temporal anthropologist. What we do is travel back in time and we study culturally significant eras - ancient Egypt, middle ages, man I've been to Nazi Germany!

Castle

Aren't you worried about the Butterfly Effect, a slightly change in something in the past thus altering the future?

No, we're careful. The timestream is mostly self-correcting, you know? Any small changes like a little ripple [...] [snipping his fingers] doesn't matter, but if someone wants do do something big, if someonebody wants to do something massive, then yes, of course, you're damn right you can change the future! And by the way, that's exactly what just happened!

Beckett

[on the phone] This is Detective Beckett, got a suspect at large, I'm gonna need patrol sweeps of the area along with a full CSU team at the scene.

Real trauma, that one - can't believe you married her...

Castle

How did you know I marry her?

One of your book jackets: you know, "Richard Castle lives in New York with his wife Senator Beckett and three children"

Castle

Senator...

Beckett

[turns around astounded] Three kids?!?

Beckett

Who the hell is Paul Deschile?

Ryan

He's a 21-year old at Hudson getting his post-doc in theoretical physics

Beckett

Alright, get him into protective custody!

Ryan

He's on leave this semester, the university has no idea where he is, so in turn look for his parents...

[agitated] Detective, it's him! Deschile!

Castle

You know him?

[still agitated] Of course I know him, everyone knows him! Oh man, if he's killed...

Beckett

Yah, OK, I'll call you back - Doyle, sit down!

No wonder billions of people die...

Castle

Hey, who the hell is Paul Deschile?

[getting really agitated] The energy wars I told you about! The other side, a group of fascists, they were worse than the Nazis, the..they were slaughtering people by the ten-thousands, Okay? They were winning, until Deschile! He and his team they, they created an energy shield which was able to stop their weapons and completely turn the tide! Detective, listen to me! Ward is still obviously fighting for the fascists! They're trying to win the war by re-writing history! If he kills Deschile, there will be no energy shield, and without that energy shield, we lose that war! Ward's gonna kill Deschile, and that is why billions of people die!

Beckett

OK, we don't have time for this - take him to holding, please...
