Jon Huertas: Javier Esposito

Quotes 

• Javier Esposito : [Beckett has interrupted an interrogation]  My man Finn, inches from confessing.

  [seeing Beckett in a huff] 

  Javier Esposito : What?

  Kevin Ryan : What's going on?

  Kate Beckett : Ballistics just came in. The bullet that killed Jane Herzfeld is from a gun that's in our system. It's a Glock 17.

  Javier Esposito : Well, th-that's good news.

  Kate Beckett : Ryan, it's a match to your old service weapon.

  Kevin Ryan : That can't be right.

  Kate Beckett : It's not a mistake. The weapon that killed Jane Herzfeld... it's yours.

• Richard Castle : So, how's Ryan holding up?

  Javier Esposito : Three days after my last tour in Iraq, I'm at a diner with friends. A car backfires; my friends look around, I'm under the table. Ryan's just waiting for the next hit.

• Kate Beckett : [after Ryan talked with Ben Lee]  What the hell were you two thinking, going to see Ben Lee when Gates specifically said "Stay away"?

  Javier Esposito : Who's gonna tell her, Beckett? Not me. Ryan, are you planning on telling the Captain what we did?

  Kevin Ryan : Not me. Castle?

  Richard Castle : [taking a picture of their outlandish get-ups with his phone]  Who, me? No way.

  Kate Beckett : Nice, smartass. And what about when Ben Lee talks to his dad and Gates gets a phone call from their lawyer? You two are gonna get benched.

  Kevin Ryan : Ben Lee's not gonna tell his father.

  Kate Beckett : How do you know?

  Kevin Ryan : Because I looked him in the eye, and I saw the pain he's in. Maybe he's not man enough to stand up for himself, but he's not gonna rat me out, either.

• [pouring whiskey into cups for a small celebration in the precinct] 

  Richard Castle : [softly]  Let's, uh, keep this party a little quiet, though, all right? If the Captain hears, I'm sure she'll blame me.

  Kate Beckett : Who's gonna tell her? Not me, you?

  Javier Esposito : Nope.

  Kate Beckett : What about you, Ryan?

  Kevin Ryan : Mmm-mmm.

  Kate Beckett : Well, then, I think we're good.

• [last lines] 

  Kevin Ryan : I'd like to make a toast... To bravery... and commitment, to love and sacrifice... to Jane.

  Richard Castle , Kate Beckett , Javier Esposito : To Jane.
