Richard Castle : [shouting over Beckett's gunfire] Wouldn't it be more of a challenge if they weren't standing still?
Kate Beckett : [stops shooting] Okay, Castle... You show me how it's done.
Richard Castle : Whoo!
Kate Beckett : [sets up a new target] All yours.
[Castle clears his throat as he takes a one handed stance with his right hand]
Kate Beckett : It's not a duel, Scaramouche. Here.
[Beckett turns Castle around]
Kate Beckett : Square off to target... Feet shoulder-distance apart... Okay. Gauntlet your right fist in your left palm.
Richard Castle : [Castle fires into the wall] Whoa! Shot too soon.
Kate Beckett : Yeah, well. You know, we could always just cuddle, Castle.
Richard Castle : Oh, funny. And a smile! Good.
[Castle fires again, hitting the target but missing the silhouette]
Kate Beckett : [sounding dubious] Well, that's better.
Richard Castle : Hmm. You know, I, uh, came down to ask you if I could, uh, take home some of those stolen property photos.
Kate Beckett : Photos of the jewelry? Why?
Richard Castle : I don't know, just thought it might spark something.
[shoots again, hitting the target in the groin area]
Richard Castle : Ooh. That's got to hurt.
Kate Beckett : Tell you what. You put any of the next three in the 10-ring, and I will give you the files.
Richard Castle : Yeah?
Kate Beckett : Yeah.
Richard Castle : [quickly fires three shots right in the 10-ring. Beckett stares at the target, stunned] You're a very good teacher.

[Castle and Beckett are going to work at a charity event]
Martha Rodgers : I don't know why you won't tell me where the party is?
Richard Castle : Because you'll show up.
-
[after Beckett shows her badge while wearing a slinky dress at the fancy charity ball]
Richard Castle : Where was the badge?
Kate Beckett : Don't ask.
-
Richard Castle : How often are people killed in neighborhoods like this?
Kate Beckett : Same as anywhere else, Castle... Just the once
-
Richard Castle : [to Beckett at the shooting range] You got to watch those silhouettes. They can be shifty little bastards.
-
Kevin Ryan : Why do you writers always call them perps?
Richard Castle : Isn't that what you call 'em?
Kevin Ryan : Ah, we got a whole lot of names for 'em. Pipe-head, pisshead, ork, creep.
Javier Esposito : Crook, knucklehead, chucklehead.
Kevin Ryan : Chud, turd.
Javier Esposito : Destro, skell.
Kevin Ryan : Skeksi, slicko, slick.
Javier Esposito : Mope.
Kevin Ryan : Sleestak.
Richard Castle : [scribbling in his notepad while chuckling] Slow down, slow down.
Kate Beckett : Suspects. We call them suspects.
Captain Roy Montgomery : I'm old school. I like dirtbag.
Richard Castle : Classic.
-
Richard Castle : No, no. They used the pillow as a poor man's sound supressor.
[Beckett clears her throat]
Richard Castle : Yeah, yes, I broke the jinx. I will buy you a soda.
-
Richard Castle : "Safes." Is that a word? Is it "saves"? That can't be right.
Karl Nadir : And you write for a living?
-
Kate Beckett : Well, I wouldn't worry about it too much, Castle. After all, only the good die young.
Richard Castle : Ouch!
Kate Beckett : Listen, Freud. I know what you're trying to do. You're trying to get me to talk about my mom to see if you can squeeze any more pulp for your fiction.
Richard Castle : 'Pulp'? You think what I do is pulp? Listen, I will have you know that 'The New York Review of Books', not 'The New York Book Review', mind you, 'The New York Review of Books' said that Derrick Storm is this generation's answer to...
Kate Beckett : I read that piece. And even you have to admit that it's more than a little hyperbolic. So how much did you pay the reviewers?
Richard Castle : A case of Chateauneuf du Pape, but that's not the point. The point is, you read 'The New York Review of Books'?
Kate Beckett : Oh, so many layers to the Beckett onion. However will you peel them all?
-
Alexis Castle : Dad, who's Powell?
Richard Castle : You remember that character of mine, um, Bentley Silver?
Alexis Castle : The jewel thief in "Storm Rising"?
Richard Castle : Yeah, I kind of based him on Powell.
Martha Rodgers : [chuckles] "Kind of"? You stole the man's entire life.
[to Alexis]
Martha Rodgers : And then your father, genius that he is, *thanked* him in the acknowledgements, completely blowing his cover.
Richard Castle : Yeah, he can't still be mad. I'm gonna go see him.
-
Richard Castle : Big cheese!
Mayor : Ricky! Ricky! Hey! Why didn't you tell me you were gonna be at this shindig? I would've given you a ride.
-
[Powell breaks into the crime scene]
Richard Castle : You, uh, don't seem out of practice.
Caine Powell : Just like riding a bike.
Richard Castle : Our thieves used a bump key.
Caine Powell : This new generation. How utterly vulgar.
[looking around]
Caine Powell : Rick, you didn't tell me they put her in the safe.
Richard Castle : What's the significance?
Caine Powell : The significance is it's unnecessary... It's brutality for brutality's sake... This used to be a gentleman's game. We were like ghosts. We could walk through walls and simply disappear. But whoever did this... they're more like vampires. Taste of the blood makes them... feel alive. These aren't the sort of chaps a fellow in my line of work would care to meet by chance in the dark.
Richard Castle : How often does that happen?
Caine Powell : More often than you'd think, actually. Ours is a very small community.
Richard Castle : And then what?
Caine Powell : In my day, we'd usually come to some sort of an agreement. You see, there was a code of conduct among professionals.
-
Kate Beckett : Tell your friend to keep up his disappearing act, and the next time you show up at a crime scene without me, I'll show you how my Taser works.
Richard Castle : Promise?

[Ryan sneezes]
Richard Castle , Kate Beckett : Bless you.
Richard Castle : Jinx!
Kate Beckett : What's wrong with him?
Javier Esposito : Goose down. He's allergic.
Richard Castle : I'm sorry. Under the time-honored rules of jinx, you're not allowed to speak until I release you.
[Ryan sneezes again]
Richard Castle , Kate Beckett : Bless you.
Kate Beckett : Reverse double-jinx.
Richard Castle : I, just, I...
Kate Beckett : Uh-uh. Castle, mouth shut until I release you.
-
Richard Castle : Makes me think about Alexis. Wh-What would she do if something happened to me?
Kate Beckett : Well, she still has her mom, right?
Richard Castle : Meredith is more like a crazy aunt with a credit card. Of the two of us, I'm the more responsible one. Pretty sad, isn't it?
-
[having greeted Castle with a punch in the face]
Caine Powell : What can I say, Rick? You *really* had it coming.
Richard Castle : Yes, I did. Thanks for not killing me.
Caine Powell : The carpet's an antique, Turkish, mid-1600s. Blood stain on it would've been a disaster.
-
Richard Castle : What happened to the dress?
Kate Beckett : You didn't think I was gonna interrogate him in it, did you?
Richard Castle : We were kind of hoping.
-
Richard Castle : In a building like this? This part of town? You'd think she'd be safe. No... pun intended.

[first lines]
[Castle and Alexis are having a sword fight while Martha plays the piano]
Richard Castle : You've come to Nottingham once too often.
Alexis Castle : After today, there'll be no need for me to come again!
Richard Castle : You've been holding out on me, Sir Robin. I hear you like a boy.
Alexis Castle : I knew she'd tell.
Richard Castle : So, who is he?
Alexis Castle : His name is Owen. He's in my poetry class. Very shy and very sweet.
[Castle 'stabs' her in the heart]
Alexis Castle : Hey!
Richard Castle : Keep your guard up.
Alexis Castle : Then don't distract me.
-
Richard Castle : You know, I'm thinking of installing a new security system. Maybe even a panic room.
Martha Rodgers : Panic room? What for? Panic attacks?
Alexis Castle : Anyone comes, we'll beat them off with swords. Or pens, since they are mightier.

[last lines]
Martha Rodgers : Darling, we have a visitor.
Kate Beckett : [seeing Castle's black-eye] Oh, pretty butch, Castle.
Richard Castle : I know, right? Come, grab a chair.
Kate Beckett : Oh, no. I just came to return your mom's jewelry.
Richard Castle : You saved my life. The least I can do is make you some eggs.
Kate Beckett : No, really, I have to get...
Martha Rodgers : Nonsense! You sit down right here. Tell us all about last night. We've only heard his version.
Kate Beckett : [taking a seat] All right. Um... Shall I begin at the red carpet?
Alexis Castle : Yes, please.
Kate Beckett : So...
-
Caine Powell : And how's Martha these days?
Richard Castle : You know Martha. An actress looking for her one-woman show.
