Blake Wellesley, Castle and others in “Kill the Messenger”

I speak for the entire Wellesley family when I say you can expect our full cooperation in this investigation.

Castle

But? You can tell, there's a "but" coming.

Not a "but", a "however". Like I said, we'll cooperate, however, we request these unannounced interviews come to a stop.

Beckett

Here we go.

Montgomery

Beckett, let's hear him out.

I apologize if I'm coming off like one of those guys, Detective. It's just that these impromptu visits are a bit awkward. My nephew Trent said you spoke to him when he visited my mother. Mother became very confused, very upset. I'm sure there's a better way to facilitate this.

Beckett

Like what?

Well, I propose that all further interviews be coordinated by me and conducted at my offices. What do you think?

Montgomery

Thank you for your offer, Mr. Wellesley. It's very nice of you.

[rising up from his seat] Not at all. I'll give you my number-

Montgomery

Hold on. I, too, have a "however". Thank you for your offer, however, my detectives will conduct their investigation in any manner they see fit.

Captain, I can get the commissioner on the phone in under a minute.

Montgomery

Well, tell him I said hi, and I could really use a raise. [Rising up] I think we're done here. [Lets out his hand to shake, but Blake walks away. After he leaves…]

Castle

That was awesome!

Montgomery

Whatever you guys are doing, keep doing it. They're circling the wagons.

Castle

[rising up, and pointing at Montgomery with a grin] Awesome!
