Quotes 

• Matilda King : New assistant.

  Carrie : It's Carrie.

  Matilda King : I'll learn your name when you've earned it.

• Matilda King : Kate Beckett... I never could forget those cheekbones.

  Richard Castle : Uh, wait, you two know each other?

  Kate Beckett : Yeah, yeah. When I was a model, for about fifteen minutes.

  Richard Castle : You modeled for "Modern Fashion"?

• Kate Beckett : You've got a hell of a temper, Ms. King.

  Matilda King : It's not temper. It's frustration. Glenn Carter, our new owner, cares more about money than fashion.

  Kate Beckett : Is that why you're paranoid he was gonna replace you?

  Matilda King : I don't know what you've heard, but I'm Matilda King. My name is synonymous with this magazine. He wouldn't dare replace me.

  Kate Beckett : So then why did you order the monitoring of all of your employees' conversations the moment that he bought the magazine?

  Matilda King : [impressed]  You are quite the detective.

• Matilda King : Yes, since the purchase, rumors have been swirling. I'd like to think that they're just rumors, but I can't afford to take that chance. I need to know my people are loyal.

  Kate Beckett : By bugging their homes?

  Matilda King : With their permission. We've had some loyalty issues, so my lawyers added some fine print to their employment agreements.

  Kate Beckett : Do you actually believe that's gonna fly in court?

  Matilda King : My lawyers seem to think so.

• Richard Castle : [to Beckett]  You modeled for "Modern Fashion"?

  Matilda King : I offered her a spread in the January '99 issue. Nicole Kidman was on the cover.

  [to Beckett] 

  Matilda King : And you passed. To date, you're the only person to ever tell me "no." I'm wall-to-wall. We'll have to reschedule.

  Richard Castle : Uh, get ready to be told 'no' again.
