Javier Esposito : Uh, street cams weren't able to get our getaway car, but ShotSpotter was tripped by the engine noise.
Vasiliy Zhirov : What is, uh, Spot Shotter?
Richard Castle : ShotSpotter. Audio surveillance system designed to detect gunshots.
Javier Esposito : And noises over 120 decibels can also activate the system, so we got a recording.
-
Vasiliy Zhirov : [after Ryan and Esposito question a suspect] The suspect is leaving.

Richard Castle : [answering phone] Richard Castle Investigations.
Vasiliy Zhirov : This is Vasily. I have most important news to discuss.
Richard Castle : Ah, listen, if it's about the case...
Vasiliy Zhirov : Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. You see, I'm a writer, too.
Richard Castle : Of course you are.
Vasiliy Zhirov : I have an idea for a Nikki Heat novel.
Richard Castle : Of course you do.
Vasiliy Zhirov : Let's meet for coffee.
Richard Castle : Let me- Let me, uh, I'm gonna check my schedule.
[putting Vasily on hold, he calls Beckett]
Kate Beckett : Hey.
Richard Castle : Vasily Zhirov wants me to meet him for coffee. What should I do?
Kate Beckett : Keep him happy. The more time he spends with you, the less he's gonna be hanging over my shoulder.
Richard Castle : And if I keep him happy?
Kate Beckett : Then I will keep you happy.
Richard Castle : Done.
[switches lines]
Richard Castle : Vasily!

Kate Beckett : The report on the Dragunov sniper rifle said that the barrel twist rate was 320 millimeters, but the newer version is 240, right?
Vasiliy Zhirov : Yes, it was changed in the '90s.
Kate Beckett : So then why would our sniper use an older model, when the newer one is so much more powerful and accurate?
Rita : It- It must have been the only thing the assassin had access to. Only who the hell leaves around a Russian sniper rifle from the 1980s lying around?
Vasiliy Zhirov : Molniya.
Kate Beckett : Lightning?
Vasiliy Zhirov : It's an old KGB code name for weapon caches planted in NATO countries to support the agents in the field. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, many were abandoned.
Rita : But someone in the field would know where they were.
Kate Beckett : Like Frank, except he's all lawyered up.
Vasiliy Zhirov : Yes, but I too know where these old caches are. We search those caches, we could find our killer.

Vasiliy Zhirov : But, my friend, Russian justice plays by different rules.

Richard Castle : Politics wins over death threats?
Vasiliy Zhirov : In Russia, it's better to be killed than lose face.
