The next time you show up at a crime scene without me, I'll show you how my taser works.
Promise?
S1 E7Home Is Where The Heart Stops
My, dad, nervous for a date?
CCastle
It's not a date - it's an undercover operation.
I don't know why you won't tell me where the party is.
CCastle
Because you'll show up.
[after a fistfight] I tried to stay in the car. I really did!
How often are people killed in neighbourhoods like this?
Same as anywhere else Castle. Just the once.
[shouting over Beckett's gunfire] Wouldn't it be more of a challenge if they weren't standing still?!
[stops shooting] OK Castle, you show me how it's done.
Whoo!
All yours. [Castle clears his throat as he takes a one handed stance with his right hand] It's not a duel, Scaramouche. [Beckett turns Castle around] Here. Square off of the target. Feet shoulder distance apart. OK, gauntlet your right fist in your left palm.
[Castle accidentally fires into the wall] Oh! Shot too soon.
Yeah, well, you know we could always just cuddle, Castle.
Oh, funny, and a smile. Good. [Castle fires again, missing the target]
[sounding dubious] Well, that's better.
Hmm. You know I, uh, came down to ask you if I could, uhh, take home some of those stolen property photos.
Photos of the jewellery? Why?
I dunno, I just thought it might spark something. [shoots again, hitting the target in the groin area] Oooh! That kinda hurt!
Tell you what. You put any of the next three in the ten ring and I will give you the files.
Yeah?
Yeah.
[Castle quickly fires three shots right in the 10 ring. Beckett stares at the target, stunned, then glares at Castle.]
[smugly] You're a very good teacher.

[talking about a poker game]
JJudge
[to Beckett] Do us a favor. Beat his pants off.
Yes, beat my pants off if you dare.
[talking about a poker game]
I'm gonna make you hurt.
Oh, you're gonna get hurt.
What are we playing for?
Pride...or clothing.
I think I have a bag of gummy bears in my desk...
Javier Esposito: If you don't mind me saying, Mrs. R., you fold a lot.
Martha Rodgers: I just don't believe in stringing along a bad hand. Why waste time?
Rick Castle: Actually, Mother's game isn't really Texas Hold 'Em. It's strip poker. Keeps things humming along, if you know what I mean.
Martha Rodgers: Well, frankly, I prefer strip because even when you lose, you win.
Susan Mailer: It's not hard to live like a ghost when everyone you love thinks you're dead. I never contacted anyone from my former life, not even my parents.
Kate Beckett: But you still sent money to the Pikes.
Susan Mailer: They had a son, medical bills. I, I was responsible. Everything could have stayed just the way it was, except...
Rick Castle: Except Cynthia decided to write a book.
Susan Mailer: That reporter put a post on an environmental board asking for info on Cynthia. I e-mailed, pretending to be an old friend of "the group." It didn't take long for me to figure out that she had found Cynthia, and Cynthia was lying about what happened on the ship.
Kate Beckett: You tracked her down. You confronted her.
Susan Mailer: I threatened to turn myself in if she went through with the book. Give myself up, tell the authorities everything. She begged to meet with me first. Somewhere we could talk.
Rick Castle: That's when you rented the room?
Susan Mailer: Oh, no. Cynthia rented the room, not me. It was all part of her plan.
Kate Beckett: Her plan?
Susan Mailer: Her plan to murder me. When I got there, she poured me a drink. "Let's toast to old friends," she said. Only, you see, I don't drink. I tried to leave. She wouldn't let me. I hid in the bathroom. That's when I saw it. The tub. Full of oil. Then I understood.
Rick Castle: She didn't plan to talk to you. She planned to kill you and make it look like suicide. That wine was laced with a sleeping pill. You were supposed to drink it, and then drown in the oil.
Kate Beckett: And then the world would think that you were wracked with guilt over the Pikes all these years, and that you finally decided to commit suicide.
Rick Castle: Once your body was discovered, the public would clamor for the true story, Cynthia's true story, with you now cast as the villain.
Susan Mailer: We struggled. She lost her balance and fell against the sink and hit her head. I should've called for help. But I just wanted it to be over. So I, I dragged her to the tub, and I ... I pushed her in. You see, I was already dead. I just wanted to keep it that way.
S1 E9Little Girl Lost
It's Sunday morning. Shouldn't you be slinking home from a scandalous liaison?
Wouldn't you be jealous if I were?
In your dreams.
Actually, in my dreams, you're never jealous. In my dreams, you just join-- [Beckett shoves bear claw in Castle's mouth]
Oh, do you want to see grumpy? How about the cover art for your new novel?
Nikki Heat cover art? That's only available to... [Beckett starts walking away] oh my God, you subscribed to my website? Wait a minute... are you Castlefreak1212? Castlelover45?
You do realize that most people would be creeped by crazy anonymous fans?
Like you?
It was strictly professional curiosity.
So what did you think of your alter ego Nikki? pretty sweet, right?
"Sweet?" She's naked!
She's not naked! She's holding a gun... strategically.
[Castle and Beckett in elevator at the police station] Six months.
Six months what?
[about FBI agent Will Sorenson] We dated for six months.
I didn't ask.
Yeah, I know. You were not-asking very loudly.
I know. I'm like a Jedi like that.
Oh, for God's sake. [referring to Sorenson and Castle] Why don't you both just drop your pants and get it over with?
I'm game.
SSorenson
He's quite a guy. If only he knew how big a fan you really are.
Yeah, well, he's not going to know.
SSorenson
You never told him how you stood in line for an hour just to get your book signed? How his novels got you through your mother's death?
Is there anything you don't remember?
SSorenson
Not when it comes to you.
Alfred Candela: Why would you do this? Why would you put us through that? I mean, for godsake, why not just divorce me?
Theresa Candela: Oh, so that you can sue me for alimony? So that you can get half of everything? So that you can get custody of Angela because I'm at work all day and you can "be there for her"? No. I've seen what happens to the guys at work, what happened to Doug Ellers. No way was that gonna happen to me.
Richard Castle: You were paying the ransom to yourself.
Theresa Candela: Once Angela returned, I would file for the papers. There would be nothing left for him to take.
Kate Beckett: And if Angela was kidnapped when Alfred was taking care of her, then...
Theresa Candela: The lawyer said that if I could prove him negligent, I would get custody. I wouldn't have to move out of the apartment that I paid for so that he could live here with my daughter. Do you know how hard it was to adopt her? How much it cost? Ten years! [to Alfred] How many paintings have you sold, Alfred? Huh? How many?
Alfred Candela: How could you hate me so much?
Theresa Candela: You made it easy.
