• [Ryan and Esposito enter the morgue] 

  M.E. Sidney Perlmutter : Ugh. The "B" team.

  Javier Esposito : Talk about the "B" team.

  Kevin Ryan : Yeah.

  M.E. Sidney Perlmutter : I had hoped to see Castle's look of dismay when I told him cause of death was nothing more exotic than blunt-force trauma to the cranium... And, it-it seems that she was clobbered over the head with a club or a pipe.

  Javier Esposito : You could've said so over the phone.

  M.E. Sidney Perlmutter : Ah, but I also made two highly intriguing discoveries.

  Kevin Ryan : About the wounds on her face?

  M.E. Sidney Perlmutter : Er, well, their cause is still undetermined, but of far greater interest is the fact...

  Kevin Ryan : Because it could be claw marks...

  [to Esposito] 

  Kevin Ryan : Bigfoot has claws.

  Javier Esposito : So does Wolverine. Is he real?

  M.E. Sidney Perlmutter : Are you done?

• Javier Esposito : I may have an explanation for those facial wounds. Turns out our victim worked at a retirement home called Haven House.

  Richard Castle : Vicious, bloodthirsty old folks? Is that your theory?

  Javier Esposito : This home is not for people, Castle. It's a primate sanctuary, mostly for apes and chimpanzees and monkeys who have retired from the movie business.

  Kevin Ryan : I always *wanted* a pet monkey when I was a kid. *Big* "Curious George" fan.

  Richard Castle : Yeah, wait 'til George grows up. An adult chimpanzee can reach 200 pounds, tear off a man's face, hands, and naughty bits.

  Kate Beckett : All right, we're going to go to the primate sanctuary. If Anne was attacked there, maybe someone dumped her body to cover it up. And call me if you get anything on that sedan.

  Kevin Ryan : [to Castle as he is leaving]  George would never do that.

• Richard Castle : Well, looks like we're back to this guy as our number one suspect.

  [Castle adds a photo of Bigfoot to the murder board] 

  Kate Beckett : Castle, could you please take that down?

  Richard Castle : You got it.

  [he doesn't move] 

  Javier Esposito : The lab also was able to identify the glass shards we found in our victim's head wound. It's from a camera lens.

  Richard Castle : There was no camera at the crime scene.

  Kate Beckett : Maybe our killer took it.

  Richard Castle : Which would explain why there are so few photos of Bigfoot.

  Kate Beckett : I meant our human killer.

  Richard Castle : Right.

• Javier Esposito : His name is Chase Diggins, and he's an Australian adventurer and big game hunter.

  Kevin Ryan : Kind of Crocodile Dundee meets Indiana Jones meets Ted Nugent.

• Javier Esposito : Yo... These two nurses saw some guy do a dump-and-drive around 4:00 a.m. The Trauma Unit tried to save our vic, but she didn't make it.

  Richard Castle : If he's our killer, why would he take her to the ER?

  Kate Beckett : Maybe he had a guilty conscience.

• Javier Esposito : Hey. So, uh, a witness saw a blue sedan take out a side mirror about a block away from our hospital in our time window. They got a plate. Owner of the car was Eddie Maslon.

  Kate Beckett : How is he connected to Anne?

  Javier Esposito : Well, I'm not really sure, but Eddie knows how to put the hurt on people. He just did eight years in Sing Sing for murder two. And he had a way to mess up Anne's face. City records show that he had a pitbull... named Badass.

  Kate Beckett : A convicted killer with an attack dog? All right, pick him up.

  Javier Esposito : Right on.

  Richard Castle : Damn it! I really liked Moonshine for this.

• Richard Castle : You're saying someone framed Bigfoot?

  Kate Beckett : All I'm saying, Castle, is that someone, a human being, left the Bigfoot prints in that alleyway.

  Richard Castle : Yeah, and staged the crime scene to make it look as though Bigfoot was the killer. Why go through the trouble of blaming Bigfoot? A creature a select few of us even believe *exists*, never mind could be a murder suspect?

  Javier Esposito : [approaching]  Speaking of suspects, Anne's boss came through with a *sketch*... of the guy she argued with the day she died.

  Kate Beckett : [taking the sketch]  Take a look, Castle. A person of interest, emphasis on the word "person."

• Kevin Ryan : This guy is an international adventurer. What the hell is he doing renting an industrial *crap-hole* like this? Why not a hotel?

  Javier Esposito : The guy hunts Bigfoot. I don't think that rational behavior is something he's familiar with.
