[after asking Castle for time and space, he and Beckett haven't spoken to each other in three months]
Kate Beckett : Castle, wait.
Richard Castle : I did. For three months. You never called.
Kate Beckett : Look, I know you're angry.
Richard Castle : Yeah, you're damn right I'm angry. I watched you die in that ambulance. Did you know that? You know what that's like, watching the life drain out of someone you... someone you care about?
Kate Beckett : I told you, I needed some time.
Richard Castle : You said a few days.
Kate Beckett : Well, I needed more.
Richard Castle : Well, you should have said that.

Richard Castle : [learning about Beckett's breakup with Josh] So, why'd you guys break up?
Kate Beckett : I really, really liked him. But that wasn't enough. After my mother was killed, something inside me changed. It's like I built up this wall inside. I don't know, I guess I just didn't wanna hurt like that again. I know I'm not gonna be able to be the kind of person that I wanna be. I know I'm not gonna... I'm not gonna be able to have the kind of relationship that I want until that wall comes down. And it's not gonna happen 'till I put this thing to rest.
Richard Castle : Well, then I suppose we're just gonna have to find these guys and take 'em down. Doesn't mean I'm not still mad.

Kate Beckett : [after Captain Gates got a call from the mayor to allow Castle back at the precinct] Showing her up with the mayor? You might as well have beaten a beehive with a bat.
Richard Castle : Well, it worked, didn't it? Besides, it sure was great seeing her face twitch like that.

Richard Castle : You wanna talk about it?
Kate Beckett : About what?
Richard Castle : Kate, I saw you. When you saw that gun, you froze.
Kate Beckett : It's nothing.
Richard Castle : Your hand was shaking. That's not nothing.
Kate Beckett : Castle, it's my second day back. That's all. It's no big deal.
Richard Castle : And if it happens again?
Kate Beckett : It won't.

Richard Castle : Do you remember what you told me the first time I brought up your mother's case? That if you got started again, you wouldn't stop? You said it would probably destroy you.
Kate Beckett : Yeah, well, I didn't have any leads then.
Richard Castle : We don't have any now.
Kate Beckett : Look, Castle, I got a little emotional last night. I'm... I'm fine.
Richard Castle : No, you're not. And you know you're not. You've been back here three days, you're already in a freefall. I'm not telling you to walk away, I'm just saying... give it time. You know, just until you get your bearings again.
Kate Beckett : How am I supposed to get my bearings when someone out there wants me dead?
Richard Castle : By not letting them rob you of your life. I promise you we will figure this out. We're gonna find them and we're gonna make them pay. Just not today.
Kate Beckett : Castle, if I don't do this, I don't know who I am.
Richard Castle : You're who you always were. You're the one who honors the victims. You're the one who can bring Sonya's family some peace.
