Lanie Parish
- [everyone is looking up at Lanie with a body in a tree]
- Richard Castle: It's raining men.
- Lanie Parish: Castle, what are you doing here?
- Kate Beckett: Don't worry. We're still mad at him.
- Kevin Ryan: [to Esposito] A guy in a tree, Mom and Dad bickering. Seems like old times.
- Kate Beckett: [Lanie is up in the tree with the body] How's it going up there?
- Lanie Parish: I got tree branches poking my boobs and a spotlight shining up my booty.
- Javier Esposito: Could be worse. You could be wearing a skirt.
- Lanie Parish: [Give him a look] When I come down, I'm gonna smack you.
- Javier Esposito: I'll be looking forward to that.
- [in the back of the ambulance with Lanie]
- Richard Castle: Hi.
- Lanie Parish: Uh-uh. You do not get to say hi to me. I'm just doing my girl a favor.
- Richard Castle: Oh, you too, huh?
- Lanie Parish: Well, what did you expect? Beckett spent the first three years of being a cop trying to solve her mother's murder. It took everything she had to put it behind her. You couldn't respect that?
- Richard Castle: What was I suppose to do? Not tell her what I found?
- Lanie Parish: What you found?
- Richard Castle: Oh, she didn't tell you, did she? Three people were killed the same way her mother was, right about the same time. One of 'em was a former law student of hers. Another one, a documents clerk. The third one, a lawyer for a non-profit.
- Lanie Parish: Wait. The M.E. at the time didn't make the connection?
- Richard Castle: If he did, he buried it.
- Lanie Parish: Did you talk to him?
- Richard Castle: He died four years ago. So you see why I had to tell her.
- Lanie Parish: What'd she say?
- Richard Castle: That we were done. And then she just walked...
- [the ambulance gets hit by a car]
- [after the ambulance is hit by a car, Lanie is seeing if Castle is okay]
- Captain Roy Montgomery: Well?
- Lanie Parish: He'll live.
- [flicks Castle's ear hard]
- Kevin Ryan: What, no brain damage?
- Lanie Parish: He has some, it happened way before tonight and was probably self-inflicted.
- Richard Castle: Ah, good times.
- Kate Beckett: [phone rings] Beckett.
- [listens for a moment]
- Kate Beckett: All right. Uh, thank you.
- [hangs up]
- Kate Beckett: They found his body... Again.
- [cut to Lanie with the body]
- Kate Beckett: [approaching] What happened?
- Lanie Parish: Someone... operated on him.
- Kate Beckett: Operated?
- Lanie Parish: They cut him open and took all of his organs out.
- [Lanie pulls back the sheet; Castle, Esposito, and Ryan all groan in disgust]
- Richard Castle: Well, somebody hated his guts.
