Why is it so important to you that I believe all this stuff about fates and psychics and Santa Claus?
Because if you don't believe in even the possibility of magic, you'll never ever find it.
“He's Dead, She's Dead” · Season 3, Episode 2
In this episode: Richard Castle (3), Kate Beckett (3), Martha Rodgers (1)
My gut says it's not him. But we still have to look into his alibi.
Oh, so you don't believe in fate, yet your gut has magical properties. That's cool. Scully.
Richard. Whatever mistakes I've made in my life, I raised a good man.
Oh, let me guess, you don't believe in fate. Soulmates?
No.
Unicorns, fairies, double rainbows? Didn't you ever think your dolls used to get up at night and play with your toys?
Sorry.
Mmm… Let me guess. You were one of those annoying 6 year olds who stopped believing in Santa Claus because you figured out he couldn't travel faster than the speed of light.
I was 3, and we didn't have a chimney.
Rick Castle: Hey, did I hear you right? Our victim is Vivien Marchand, the psychic medium?
Kevin Ryan: You've heard of her?
Rick Castle: Yeah, she was very popular in certain Manhattan circles. Matter of fact, she did a reading for me at a society party about eight years ago. It was pretty extraordinary.
Kate Beckett: "Extraordinary"?
Rick Castle: She got everything right. You know what? Come to think of it, she told me a beautiful woman would one day move into my loft and stay with me forever. She neglected to mention it was my mother.
Alexis Castle: Can either of you look back on a relationship that ended because the thrill was gone and admit that maybe you gave up on love too soon? Dad, you're back with your ex-wife.
Rick Castle: No, she's right. Yeah, with Gina, the thrill was long, long gone, but now, it is back with a vengeance. Of course, it brought along its friends, high-maintenance and shopaholic.
Kate Beckett: [after she and Castle confront the murderer] Did you figure out that Emilio was cheating, or did he tell you?
Paula Casillas: He told me that he had met someone. That she was young and beautiful, and that I was just a boring old lady. I took some selenium from the factory, and every morning I put a little bit in his coffee.
Marina Casillas: My god. Mom?
Paula Casillas: When you wanted to go see Vivien, I went along to humor you, but she knew things that she shouldn't have known.
Kate Beckett: And then when she told you that Emilio wanted to tell you something important...
Rick Castle: ...and she said she was going to spend the evening communing with his spirit...
Paula Casillas: The cheating son of a bitch was gonna tell on me. After everything that he had done, I couldn't let that happen! I had to kill her to stop him!
