Quotes 

• Kevin Ryan : Mrs Rosenberg, 9-E here, comes down to put her clothes in the dryer, finds it's occupied. Comes down a half an hour later and she's had enough, decides to take matters into her own hands.

  Kate Beckett : Come on. You're telling me that an old lady killed someone over a busy dryer?

  Kevin Ryan : What? No, she's just tired of waiting around. So, she opens up the drier, to take the other person's clothes out, finds Miss Fluff-and-Fold here instead.

  Javier Esposito : Now if that's not a cautionary tale about poking around someone else's laundry, I don't know what is.

  Kevin Ryan : Dude, there is an etiquette involved. If the clothes were dry, Mrs Rosenberg had every right to put them in the basket. Now if you're going to tell me that she folded them, then it gets a little creepy.

  Javier Esposito : I'm sorry, someone starts rooting around my underwear without an invitation, I'm taking that as a serious breach of hygiene.

  Kate Beckett : I thought you went commando, Esposito.

  Javier Esposito : Well, it's a seasonal thing.

• Kate Beckett : Where are we on the boyfriend?

  Javier Esposito : His story checks out, video and a sign-in sheet.

  Kate Beckett : Great. So now all we have is a cheating husband with a possible alibi and no cell phone to run the perp's fingerprints.

  Kevin Ryan : I got something better.

  Kate Beckett : Please tell me it's that the mayor wants him out of here.

  Richard Castle : You ever notice how she gets a little grumpy when she doesn't have a suspect?

  Kevin Ryan : We got one now. Guess who wasn't where they say they were the day Sara Manning was killed?

  Kate Beckett : [Ryan offers a Post-It note, but pulls it back when Beckett snatches for it]  Who?

  Kevin Ryan : Come on, you gotta guess.

  Kate Beckett : [snatching at the Post-It again]  Ryan... Ryan. I'm not guessing.

  Kevin Ryan : [handing the Post-It over]  You're a killjoy, you know that?

  Richard Castle : Exactly what I've been telling her.

  Kate Beckett : [reading the note]  No way.

  Kevin Ryan : Pretty good, huh? Told you you should have guessed.

• Captain Roy Montgomery : Esposito and Ryan pulled security tape from an elevator in the rear entrance.

  Kevin Ryan : Front door has a 24-hour doorman.

  Javier Esposito : This is the elevator's cam. Our victim gets on the elevator with the laundry basket. Takes it down to the basement, to put the kid's laundry into the washer.

  Kate Beckett : Mm-hmm.

  Javier Esposito : Few minutes later, gets back on, goes all the way back up to the apartment. Then about forty minutes later, rides the elevator back down to the basement again.

  Kevin Ryan : We figured probably to take the kid's clothes out of the washer, put 'em in the dryer.

  Captain Roy Montgomery : Camera never picks her up again.

  Kevin Ryan : Only other person to ride the elevator down all the way to the basement during the next hour was the old lady who found the body.

  Javier Esposito : Mm-hmm

  Kate Beckett : So whoever attacked her must have used the stairwell, otherwise the camera would have caught him.

  Kevin Ryan : We got... three maintenance workers on duty that day. We'll run their names tonight.

  Richard Castle : Why only run the workers' names? Why not run all the neighbors' names?

  Kate Beckett : What are you basing that on?

  Richard Castle : I'm basing that on, the neighbor would make a better story.

  [the group snickers derisively] 

  Richard Castle : No, come on. What do any of us know about our neighbors in this city? You think the guy living next door to the Son of Sam knew he was living next door to the Son of Sam?

• Javier Esposito : Hey, what happened with the husband?

  Kate Beckett : Oh, he was cheating, just not with our victim. Here, I need you to run it down. This is her name.

  Kevin Ryan : I'm telling you, true commitment's a thing of the past. I mean, name one happily married couple.

  Richard Castle : DeGeneres and De Rossi.
