TV show quotes
Detective Beckett, and Mr. Castle. Both the President and the Attorney General have asked me to convey their thanks for your work on this case.
[raising his hand] I don’t suppose the President’s appreciation could come in the form of a blurb for my book?
Yeah, that’s not gonna happen.
Crystal Sky? That name’s so fake it sounds like something out of one of your books.
Right? [chuckling at first, but then stops] Whoa. What is that supposed to mean?
What do you mean, “What is that supposed to mean?” Derrick Storm, Nikki Heat, Jameson Rook? Would it kill you to name someone “Gonzales” every once in a while?
Maybe Erika was some kind of Erin Brockovich, you know. A crusader for good, delving into the seedy underbelly of the legal system in order to uncover some seamy truth.
Or maybe she was just hired by a rival firm to steal privileged information.
Now why must you be so cynical?
It’s in my job description.
Which is why you need me.
So no one at the law firm knew what she was looking for either?
Either that or they’re covering something up. But the only evidence of what she was up to is on that missing laptop.
So without it, we’re dead in the water. Much like Erika.
[Castle and Esposito glance at each other]
Too soon.
[In the interrogation room with Martin]
Do you have any idea how many people have sat across that table confess their sins to me? What makes you think you’re any different? Any smarter? [Turns around] You’ve only been in this room for one hour. But this room… This room has been my life. My home. [Turning back] And I will not let you sit there and let you lie to me in my own home.
[Beckett meets Castle at a swing set in a park]
I'm sorry...I shouldn't have kept secrets.
It's who you are. You don't let people in. I've had to scratch and claw for every inch--
Castle--
Please let me finish. I've been doing a lot of thinking about us, about our relationship. What we have. Where we're headed. I've decided I want more. We both deserve more.
I agree.
So whatever happens...whatever you decide...[Castle gets off the swing and kneels in front of Beckett] Katherine Houghton Beckett...[he pulls out an engagement ring and holds it up] will you marry me?
[Fade to black--end of episode, end of season]
Kate, I'm not proposing to you to you to keep you here, or because I'm afraid I'm gonna lose you. I'm proposing because I can't imagine my life without you. If that means when things get difficult we have to figure them out, then I'm willing to figure them out. Assuming you're willing to figure them out with me.
Well, in that case…Richard Edgar Alexander Rodgers Castle, yes. Yes. I will marry you.
[Castle grins as he slides the ring on her finger]
If your hero’s fictional cop buddies are anything like your real cop buddies, then they’d have real work to get back to. So, bye bye now.
What if our hero was offering Knicks floor seats?
Do you realize how many laws were broken by looking at that photo? Are you trying to get me fired?
Would make it easier to see you.
Not if I was in jail.
Right.
Thank you, for not saying anything about Castle.
Look, when I was a year out of Quantico, I was busting my ass on this case, my first big chance. We'd been going at it straight for a month, and I really wanted to let off some steam, so I went to a bar, and I picked up a guy, and I took him home. Next morning he says, "Who's Scofield?" Scofield was the subject of our highly classified investigation.
You talked in your sleep.
That's this job. Things happen. You better make sure they only happen once.
You know what the hardest thing about this job is?
What?
Knowing when to stop doing this job.
So then…apart from the fact that I’m dying, I’m fine.
Thanks for backing me up with Castle
Is he always such a character?
[Smiling] Yeah. That’s what I love about him.
If he has the toxin and the antidote, they'll find 'em
Thanks. For letting me be a part of this.
When you write your next novel, maybe you'll find a place for a dashing Colombian-American federal agent.
Consider it done.
You want a coffee?
Ah, no. I’d rather die than drink any more of that sludge. [McCord makes a face and Castle winces] Too soon?
