Quotes 

• Richard Castle : [answering a phone call]  For Richard Castle, press one. For Beckett, press two.

  Javier Esposito : Yo, how about I just talk, jackass?

• Jared Stack : The facial recognition system is scanning footage over the last two hours from all the main departure points.

  Javier Esposito : How accurate is this thing, really?

  Jared Stack : Well, if he passed in front of one of those cameras, it'll spot him.

  Kevin Ryan : Man, talk about Big Brother. There's gotta be a way to beat the system though, right?

  Jared Stack : Wear big sunglasses, let your bangs hang down over your forehead. It totally messes with the software.

  Javier Esposito : What if you don't have bangs?

  Jared Stack : Wear heavy makeup. Paint random colored shapes all over your face.

  Javier Esposito : [chuckles]  Yeah, I'm not doing that.

• [Castle and Beckett driving back from a Fort Drummond meeting gets a call from Esposito that the feds have seized all of the case evidence] 

  Kate Beckett : [on speaker-phone to Esposito]  We've been played. They just met with us to find out where everything was and what we knew. And then they grabbed all the evidence.

  Javier Esposito : [on speaker-phone]  Yeah, and now we have no proof that a drone strike ever happened.

  Richard Castle : And we're no closer to figuring out why it happened... or who did it.

  Kevin Ryan : [approaching Esposito]  Maybe Tanner's partner can tell us.

  Kate Beckett : Do you know who it is?

  Kevin Ryan : Turns out Tanner taught law classes at East Borough College to make ends meet and his colleagues said they remember seeing a former student named Omar Dixon hanging around. I talked to Omar's girlfriend. She said that he did work for Tanner but it was all hush-hush what he did.

  Kate Beckett : And where's Omar now?

  Kevin Ryan : The girlfriend said she has no idea. But Sean Tanner might. He attends East Borough, too. He used to drop by and see his dad. Maybe he knows Omar.

  Richard Castle : Oh, I think he does. Remember what he did when you asked if he knew his dad's partner?

  Kate Beckett : He changed the subject.

  Richard Castle : Boom.

• Kevin Ryan : Why is it so hard to believe? People hack into banks all the time. The Pentagon, NASA.

  Javier Esposito : Yeah, but a drone? Maybe the pilot was just *pretending* that he wasn't flying.

  Kate Beckett : No, no. You can't fake that kind of panic.

  Richard Castle : I agree. He was having a pants-soiling moment. But there is one possibility we are neglecting... The drone itself. It's rise of the machines. Not unlike SkyNet in "The Terminator". The machines have achieved consciousness

  [whispers] 

  Richard Castle : and they are pissed.

• Javier Esposito : Yo, check it. Warburg posted a video just before he went into hiding.

  Simon Warburg : [on video]  People don't understand why I tampered with the drone software.

  Richard Castle : That's Warburg? I was expecting...

  Kevin Ryan : Dr. Evil?

  Richard Castle : Or someone a little less nerdy.
