Quotes 

• Kate Beckett : Oh, yeah, and your ex-wife called. She said that you've been avoiding her because you're *late* delivering your manuscript of... "Naked Heat".

  [pause] 

  Kate Beckett : That's a catchy title. When were you gonna tell me?

  Richard Castle : Well, I was waiting for the perfect time. It just never... happened.

  Kate Beckett : She's naked on the cover again, isn't she?

  Richard Castle : Kind of, yeah.

  Kate Beckett : That's great. No one's gonna make fun of me.

• Richard Castle : It's kind of like a tradition, you know? Bonfires, roasting marshmallows, telling ghost stories, sleeping late. We've done it since she was five.

  Kate Beckett : Sounds nice. Kind of magical, actually.

  Richard Castle : Yeah, you know what? You should come. Oh, it's right on the ocean. There's a secluded pool. You could lay out, work on your tan.

  Kate Beckett : Wow, Castle, you are working really hard to see me in a swimsuit.

  Richard Castle : If you are not comfortable in a swimsuit, you could just skinny dip.

• Kate Beckett : Then why would they try to kill someone who doesn't exist?

  Richard Castle : I think I know. Come on.

  [cut to the precinct] 

  Kevin Ryan : Hey. So, I just got back from ballistics. That gun that we found in the victim's car...

  Richard Castle : [while rushing by Ryan]  Let me guess, it's not real.

  [cut to holding cell] 

  Richard Castle : [to Hans]  It's a game.

  Hans Brauer : What are you talking about?

  Richard Castle : This whole thing. The fake IDs, the dossier, Luvania, the banking minister. It's *all*... part of a game.

  Hans Brauer : [quietly]  Come on. You're breaking the fourth wall here.

  Hans Brauer : Listen, Hans, or whatever your name is, you see that woman?

  [points to Beckett] 

  Hans Brauer : She's a real cop. There's been a real murder, and *you* are really under arrest. If you don't start talking to us, you're gonna stay in jail. Real... jail.

• Javier Esposito : So... Castle's last case, huh?

  Kate Beckett : Mm-hmm.

  Javier Esposito : Ryan and I thought we'd do a little going-away party.

  Kate Beckett : Yeah, well, it's not like he's leaving forever.

  Javier Esposito : You sure about that? Why do you think he's been following you around all this time? What, research? The guy's has done enough research to write fifty books... Look... whatever the reason is, I'm pretty sure it doesn't include watching you be with another guy.

• Kate Beckett : You lied to me, Mr. Copley. Do you care to revise your statement? 8 p.m. That's plenty of time to drive to the city from Stamford.

  Richard Castle : What'd you do, Lee? Wait for him at the hotel, follow him 'till he was alone?

  Lee Copley : No, I didn't.

  Kate Beckett : And then you used the game as cover.

  Lee Copley : No. Look, I swear, I didn't do it.

  Kate Beckett : Right. You were at home in bed.

  Lee Copley : No, I wasn't... at home, but I was in bed... with his wife.

  Kate Beckett : I'm sorry, what?

  Lee Copley : I was in bed with Roger's wife.

  Richard Castle : Let me, let me get this straight. You-your alibi for killing your friend is you were... doing his, his wife?

  Lee Copley : Yeah.

  Richard Castle : Wow.

• Richard Castle : What's wrong?

  Kate Beckett : I tried Information, our database. They even did an Internet search, and it's like these guys don't even exist.

  Richard Castle : Who?

  Kate Beckett : Fastwater Global Services.

  Richard Castle : Ah! See? I told you. CIA cover.

  [Beckett gives him a look] 

  Richard Castle : No, I mean they probably just don't like to advertise.

  Kate Beckett : Yeah, well, I thought so, as well. So I checked their address, 1747 West 43rd Street. It's in the middle of the Hudson River.

• Kate Beckett : You know, it used to be if you were gonna have a midlife crisis, you'd just buy a Ferrari, get a new girlfriend, even jump out of a plane.

  [as Castle is walking away with ex-wife Gina] 

  Kate Beckett : See you in the fall?

  Richard Castle : [stops and turns around]  See you in the fall.
