Episode Quotes

Special Agent Jordan Shaw: What is he doing?
Kate Beckett: He touches things.
Kate Beckett: Castle just finished making breakfast and he went to the door...
Kevin Ryan: What kind of breakfast?
Kate Beckett: Um, I'm sorry?
Kevin Ryan: What kind of breakfast was he making?
Kate Beckett: Pancakes.
Kevin Ryan: Well isn't that domestic.
Kate Beckett: [annoyed] Anyway, the paper usually arrives at four and we were up at seven so that means the killer had a three hour window where he could have left the body there unnoticed.
Kevin Ryan: Uh-huh, and exactly what time did you and Mr. Castle go to bed last night?
Kate Beckett: I think we're done here.
Javier Esposito: Dude, I see Beckett in her jammies, wine glasses on the table...
Richard Castle: There's nothing going on with Beckett and me! No more than there was yesterday.
Kevin Ryan: Dude, you made her pancakes?
Richard Castle: It's just breakfast!
Javier Esposito: Pancakes is not just breakfast, it's an edible way of saying, 'Thank you SO much for last night.'
Kevin Ryan: Castle, come on, we're your friends- details.
Richard Castle: Okay, come here. [the boys form a huddle] There are no details!
Javier Esposito: I can't even look at you right now.
Kevin Ryan: [writing on his notepad] Witness refuses to cooperate.

Mistakes/Goofs

  • Goof (errors made by characters, possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In previous episodes, castle has made it clear that he hates when people misuse the word irony, yet when he holds up the paper and says, "talk about irony!" when in fact the heading was not ironic, it was just coincidental.
  • Goof (continuity error): After Shaw tells Beckett to go home, Kate touches her hair with a gloved right hand. The angle changes, and her right hand is now bare, and she's holding the glove in her left hand.
  • Goof (errors made by characters, possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): At the end when Castle is on the phone with Beckett and the bomb goes off, Castle moves his phone away from his head and the audience can clearly see that the phone is facing the wrong way.

Trivia

  • Castle's mother, played by Susan Sullivan, is a long-time struggling actress. In the episode "Tick Tick Tick" she watches herself in the pilot episode of The Incredible Hulk, in which Susan Sullivan appeared.
