Castle · Season 3, Episode 23

Beckett, Castle and others in “Pretty Dead”

Justin confessed to everything. His last three clients were losers. Amber was supposed to be his comeback and, if she didn't win, he was through. And, apparently, he found the same naked photos that we did and thought that her ex-boyfriend was trying to exploit her.

He was worried if they called the cops that her secret would get out and they'd both be ruined. So, he decided to handle it on his own. Unfortunately, Jeremy was drunk, he got violent, and Justin ended up killing him.

And he staged it like it was a suicide. Once Amber found out, she threatened to turn him in and he killed her.

That's a whole pageant of bad choices. Good work you two.

[Ryan and Esposito clear their throats in the background.]

Uh, good work, you all.

Thank you.

Mmm, I see a beauty queen worthy of a crown.

EEvelyn

Always the charmer, Rick.

Hey, what you doing here? You know I was just coming to swoop you up.

EEvelyn

Yeah, well, I know how you lose all sense of time when you're working. I figured I'd meet you here.

Mm-hmm.

Do you guys have any big plans?

EEvelyn

Dinner and dancing with the best husband in Manhattan. Especially since he gave me that gift this morning.

Oh, what did you end up giving her?

I followed your advice, Castle. I thought about some of the things Evelyn said she wanted the past couple of years. And my gift to her is next year I'm retiring from the force.

EEvelyn

We're going to go traveling. We're going to go to all of the romantic places.

Wait, you serious, Boss?

You really want to retire?

I haven't accomplished everything I wanted to on the job, but I've done enough. It's time for me to move on.

EEvelyn

Best gift ever. More Roy.

[The Montgomerys kiss.]

[After Montgomery tell the team he plans on retiring next year]

Mm-hmm. Look, I taught you guys everything I know about doing this job, alright? You're going to be fine without me And for crying out loud, lose the long faces. Smile please? That’s an order.

[All laugh]

Hey, you kids take care, alright? You guys behave now.

You have a good time.

Congratulations you guys. Goodnight.

Thank you.

EEvelyn

Bye.

Happy anniversary.

Goodnight.

Goodnight, Captain. [Turns To Castle] What the hell did you say to him?

Nothing. No, I-- I just told him to listen to what his wife wanted.

Damn, Castle.

How can you think-- I didn't-- There's no way--

Castle, let me let you in on a little secret. Captain Montgomery retires all the time, just give it a week or two. He's like the Brett Favre of the NYPD. Trust me. He's not going anywhere.

Not going anywhere.
