Quotes
-
Javier Esposito : You guys okay?
Kate Beckett : Yeah, thanks for rescuing us.
Hayley Shipton : Yes, because clearly you were helpless without us.
Richard Castle : How'd you guys even find us?
Kevin Ryan : Well, we had our best person on it.
Alexis Castle : [entering] I can't leave you alone for five minutes.
Richard Castle : Does this mean no hug?
-
[first lines]
Richard Castle : Booyay!
Martha Rodgers : God.
Richard Castle : Guess who's about to have the best day ever?
Martha Rodgers : Could it be the fellow who just interrupted us, rather rudely, with "booyah"?
Alexis Castle : What's going on, dad?
Richard Castle : I'm sorry. I can't tell you. I'm sworn to secrecy.
Alexis Castle : Okay.
[to Martha]
Alexis Castle : Anyway, so my psych professor said...
Martha Rodgers : Yeah.
Alexis Castle : ...fear is an emotion, which it is, but then I arg...
Richard Castle : [talking over Alexis] So you're not even gonna try to pry the secret out of me?
Martha Rodgers : Darling, we are right in the middle of something here. So if you just wait for a moment, we will give you our full attention, okay?
[to Alexis]
Martha Rodgers : Okay. What is it, darling?
Alexis Castle : Gram, you know he's just gonna keep pouting until he gets his way. Dad, just tell us your secret.
Richard Castle : Okay. But only because you insisted.

Richard Castle : I just got off the phone with the personal assistant of none other than... Stephen King.
Martha Rodgers : Whoa!
Richard Castle : He's in town visiting his New York apartment, has called to see if I'm available for a meeting to talk about a, dramatic pause... collaboration.
Martha Rodgers : Ooh!
Alexis Castle : Hold on. Isn't he still mad about... the thing?
Martha Rodgers : What thing?
Alexis Castle : The baseball thing. See, Stephen King is a huge Red Sox fan and Dad...
Martha Rodgers : Oh, and your father is a Yankees fan. Oh, no, Richard, what did you do?
Richard Castle : It was a silly joke.
Alexis Castle : Mmm...
Richard Castle : Ah.
Alexis Castle : ...More like a thinly veiled threat.
Richard Castle : Tomayto, tomahto. Obviously, it's water under the bridge, because he wants to talk about collaborating on a project. "Richard Castle and Stephen King present." Wish me luck, ladies.
Martha Rodgers : Darling, if you think you're going to get top billing over Stephen King, you're gonna need more than luck.
-
Richard Castle : [answers phone] Hey, Beckett.
Kate Beckett : So how's the meeting going? Is Stephen still mad at you?
Richard Castle : I just got here. And if he's not still mad at me, he will be when I tell him to fire his real-estate agent.
Kate Beckett : Hey, Hey! Be nice.
Richard Castle : What, to Stephen, or to the team of rats came to welcome me at the door? All right, I gotta go. I love you.
-
Todd : We're out of time. You need to choose which ones of you are staying in here with me.
Richard Castle : I'll stay.
Kate Beckett : Castle.
[determined, he pushes one of the levers]
Kate Beckett : Fine. But I'm not letting you stay here alone... Patricia, you leave with the others.
Todd : But the instructions say "your better half." If you both stay, that's breaking the rules.
Kate Beckett : Screw the rules!
-
Todd : Don't you see? We're powerless in here?
Richard Castle : No, we're not... We have the power not to play.
[to the camera]
Richard Castle : You hear that? We're not gonna play your sick little game anymore. You lose.
[a television monitor turns on]
Richard Castle : It's another room... It's identical to this one.
Simon : Meadow. What's my wife doing in there?
Judah : That's my girlfriend, Patty.
[a third woman turns to look up at the camera]
Richard Castle : Beckett.

[last lines]
Richard Castle : You okay?
Kate Beckett : Yeah, I was just thinking about those little kids. I mean... a lot of people let them down.
Richard Castle : And although their parents are finally being exposed, it's far too little too late.
Kate Beckett : Mmm. This is not the day that I was expecting when I woke up this morning.
Richard Castle : Tell me about it. But at least it's ending well.
Kate Beckett : Yeah.
[she takes his hand, but notices his expression]
Kate Beckett : What's wrong?
Richard Castle : Nothing. I- I- I ju- I was really looking forward to the prospect of collaborating with Stephen King, you know?
Kate Beckett : Well, you know, Castle, look on the bright side. When Stephen King does call, at least you'll have one hell of an ice-breaker.
