[last lines]
Richard Castle : [voiceover] Every writer needs inspiration... and I found mine.
Kate Beckett : [voiceover] Always.
Richard Castle : [voiceover] Always.

[SPOILER:]
Richard Castle : Hey, Beckett?
Kate Beckett : [in the bedroom] Yeah?
Richard Castle : If Mason had an incinerator in the basement, why wouldn't he just dispose of Caleb's body there?
[Castle is suddenly shot by an anonymous assailant]
Caleb Brown : [entering] I told Mason that you would figure it out...
Kate Beckett : Castle?
Caleb Brown : ...but the old man wouldn't listen to me.
Richard Castle : Caleb, don't...
Caleb Brown : Sorry, Rick, but how am I gonna enjoy my retirement with you and the Mrs. hunting me?
Kate Beckett : [entering] Castle!
[she and Caleb exchange gunfire; Beckett hits Caleb, and as he dies, she falls to the ground, a bloodstain appearing on her shirt; she and Castle crawl towards each other and hold hands for comfort]
-
Mason Wood : You and Mr. Castle have quite a bond. Unusual in your line of work.
Kate Beckett : Yeah, I'm crazy for him. He's the love of my life. And he understands the sacrifices that I have to make to do this job, so.
Mason Wood : Clearly, whomever you're up against is quite deadly. Ever consider just walking away?
Kate Beckett : Every day.
Mason Wood : Why didn't you?
Kate Beckett : I took an oath. People that I cared about were murdered, and they deserve justice.
Mason Wood : Must be hard carrying that weight.
Kate Beckett : I don't carry it alone.
-
[staking out LokSat's dead drop]
Kate Beckett : Castle, you see anything?
Richard Castle : No, just two sewer rats fighting over a piece of pizza.
-
Kevin Ryan : So Caleb was burned alive because LokSat found out that he switched sides and was working with you?
Kate Beckett : Yeah, and now LokSat is going after Vikram, Castle, me, anyone that knows anything about them. So I need you guys to forget everything that you just heard.
Kevin Ryan : Oh, no, I'm afraid we can't do that, boss.
Kate Beckett : You guys, LokSat took out my entire A.G. team. I'm not gonna let that happen to you.
Javier Esposito : And we're not gonna let you go to war without your two best soldiers.
Kate Beckett : Right now, there's no war to be fought. Castle and I are probably gonna have to disappear for a while, at least until we find another lead on LokSat.
Javier Esposito : Beckett, we already have one. Caleb ID'd his killer.
[shows a photo]
Javier Esposito : LokSat's right-hand man. You know what this means?
Kevin Ryan : Catching Caleb's killer will put us on a path to LokSat.
-
Kate Beckett : LokSat and his cleaner have had us running for cover like they're the hunters. That's good. They'll never see us coming.
-
Richard Castle : [on phone] That's not what we agreed to. You were supposed to grab Vikram and then come straight here.
Kate Beckett : I- I know, but that was before the guys were brought in on this and before we got actionable evidence on LokSat. I can't leave now.
Richard Castle : Well, then I'm coming down there.
Kate Beckett : Uh, no, no, absolutely not. You can't risk coming out in the open.
Richard Castle : And you can't risk staying in the open.
Kate Beckett : Castle, I am in one of the safest buildings in the city, a police station. A- A- And better yet, my police station, with my cops... Nothing's gonna happen to me while I'm here.
-
[learning of a lead to LokSat]
Kate Beckett : All right, grab your tac gear. We're going to that house.
Kevin Ryan : Excuse me, Beckett... correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you just tell Castle that you're staying put here at the precinct?
Kate Beckett : You think I'm gonna send you into harm's way while I'm sitting safe behind a desk? No, not gonna happen.
Javier Esposito : You got a target on your back. We don't. You're staying here.
Kate Beckett : [to Ryan] Uh, he does know that I'm Captain, right?
Kevin Ryan : Yes, ma'am. You can fire us both for insubordination, if you want. Otherwise, we got this.
-
Kate Beckett : Dead end is not good enough. This guy doesn't get to be smarter than us. There's too much at stake here. If we lose this thread, then we're just sitting ducks...
[sighs]
Kate Beckett : I need a miracle, guys.
-
[SPOILER:]
Kate Beckett : Pull the gun out of your pocket. Two fingers, put it on the ground.
[Mason takes a step forward]
Kate Beckett : Knock it off! I know it's you. Now, *gun* on the floor. Nice and slow.
Mason Wood : [putting his gun down] I was, uh, worried you might be too smart to fall for this.
Kate Beckett : What's in the other pocket?
Mason Wood : [taking a fob out of his pocket] Oh, this? It's just insurance.
[he presses a button, and Beckett's gun flies to the ceiling; Mason picks his own up and holds it on her]
Mason Wood : You see, mine is made of plastic, so it's unaffected by the electromagnet in the ceiling. And I'm afraid I have some more bad news for you. Your husband's dead.
Kate Beckett : You're lying.
Mason Wood : No, I'm not. He died about the same time I was picking you up. As a matter of fact, his body is in the furnace behind you there, being reduced to a few pounds of ashes... I think it's very fitting that your lives together end in fire, don't you?
Kate Beckett : I'm not going in there without a fight.
Mason Wood : That's very brave of you... but it won't be much of a fight.
-
Kate Beckett : I feel like I could sleep for a week.
Richard Castle : How about some breakfast first? Best way to start off a hibernation.
Kate Beckett : Uh, you know what? Why, uh, why don't we just order in? You don't have to cook.
Richard Castle : I love cooking for you.
Kate Beckett : And I love when you cook for me. I'm gonna go change.
-
Vikram Singh : After we take down LokSat, I am thinking I might tender my resignation.
Kate Beckett : So you wanna go back to being a government analyst?
Vikram Singh : I want to go back to being boring. Kind of forgotten what that feels like. I know that probably sounds stupid.
Kate Beckett : No. No, not at all... Thank you for doing this with me.
Vikram Singh : Are you kidding? Thank you for... everything.
-
Vikram Singh : So, that's it.
[sighs]
Vikram Singh : We're finally in the clear.
Javier Esposito : Yes, we're gonna go to a bar and celebrate.
Kevin Ryan : Yeah.
[Ryan and Esposito start to leave]
Kate Beckett : Okay, have fun. So, you handing in your resignation?
Vikram Singh : No... boring is overrated.
Javier Esposito : Yo, Vikram, you coming?
Vikram Singh : It's 7:00 in the morning.
Javier Esposito : It's New York City.
-
Kate Beckett : You thinking what I'm thinking?
Richard Castle : Mmm-hmm. You want a Fudgesicle, too?
[sees Beckett's look]
Richard Castle : I know. Could be a trap.
Kate Beckett : Just because Caleb switched sides, doesn't mean that LokSat doesn't have him under surveillance. Any one of these people could be a LokSat agent, or even LokSat himself.
Richard Castle : You care to put a wager on it?
Kate Beckett : Wager on what?
Richard Castle : On which one's LokSat. I got twenty bucks says it's the handsy yogi over there.
Kate Beckett : I'm going for the Carrot Top Cruella de Vil. Wait a minute, does she look a bit like your first ex-wife?
Richard Castle : She kind of does. Oh, my God. Could my ex-wife be LokSat? 'Cause in a lot of ways, that would make perfect sense.
-
Richard Castle : We all heard Caleb's instructions.
Kate Beckett : LokSat's accountant is going to expose himself at that dead drop.
Richard Castle : Talk about high on the food chain. We get LokSat's accountant...
Kate Beckett : It could bring us one step closer to LokSat himself. Vikram, send an encrypted e-mail to Caleb. He's gonna have to show up at that dead drop.
[to Castle]
Kate Beckett : And you have to get ahold of Hayley. We need all the help we can get.
-
Richard Castle : What F-stop are you using?
Kate Beckett : Excuse me?
Richard Castle : F-stop. It's a function on the camera. It tells it how much light to permit...
Kate Beckett : Yeah, no, I- I know what an F-stop is. This isn't a shoot for "National Geographic". It's on auto.
Richard Castle : Auto. No, no, no. Never use auto. Here, let me get that for you.
[reaches for the camera]
Kate Beckett : Castle, stop messing with my stuff.
[slaps his hand away]
Richard Castle : Ow! I thought you liked it when I messed with your stuff.
-
Kate Beckett : [answers phone] Espo, kind of busy here.
Javier Esposito : I know. I know. But listen. I traced the serial number on that briefcase from the crime scene. It belongs to Caleb Brown, so I had the lab run his DNA. It's a match. Caleb's dead. He's our victim.
Kate Beckett : [hearing static on the call] Espo? Are you there?
Richard Castle : What is it?
Kate Beckett : [looking through camera lens] That's not Caleb. Castle, this is a trap.
-
[after a dramatic rescue]
Richard Castle : *That* was amazing! Mason, you, sir, are quite literally a lifesaver. And talk about a getaway vehicle. A Korean barbecue taco truck! Are you serious? Is anyone hungry right now? Because I could totally whip up some kimchi tostadas.
Kate Beckett : [approaching Mason with her gun drawn] Who are you?
Mason Wood : Whoa. Easy now.
Richard Castle : Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. No, no, no, no. Kate, Kate, Kate, this is Mason Wood. He's the head of the Greatest Detective Society. I told you about meeting him in L.A.
Kate Beckett : That doesn't mean that we can trust him.
Mason Wood : Fine, don't trust me. But would you mind pointing that thing away from me? It makes me just a bit nervous.
Richard Castle : Don't worry, she's out of bullets.
Kate Beckett : Why would you tell him that?
Richard Castle : Because he saved our lives, and he's a friend!
Kate Beckett : Who just happened to be at the right place, at the right time, with the right Korean barbecue taco truck? I don't think so.
-
Kate Beckett : How did that happen? We were careful.
Richard Castle : LokSat must've discovered that Caleb betrayed him and then got wind of us.
Kate Beckett : So LokSat killed Caleb, and then all he had to do was hack into Caleb's account and send a fake e-mail to Vikram agreeing to make that drop.
Richard Castle : LokSat is going to keep coming for us. Worse, he's gonna come after our families.
Kate Beckett : Okay, well, my dad's away on business so he's okay for now, but you gotta get Hayley to pick up Alexis and Martha and take them to the P.I. office safe room.
Richard Castle : What about Vikram? He's in danger, too.
Kate Beckett : I'll track him down, and then we'll meet up and we'll make a plan.
[sees the concern in his face]
Kate Beckett : No, no, no. Come on. Don't give me that face. Just say we'll meet at the P.I. office.
Richard Castle : We'll meet at the P.I. office.
-
Javier Esposito : CSU's taking the place apart.
Kate Beckett : They're not gonna find anything. Place was a way station.
Kevin Ryan : You think he planned for us to follow him there?
Kate Beckett : LokSat's people are CIA, which means they are experts at tactical subterfuge... My guess is Mr. Right-Hand-Man anticipated our ability to track down his vehicle from the crime scene, and he led us to a place where he knew he could lose us.
Javier Esposito : And your guess would be right. Surveillance cameras on the street behind the house were disabled yesterday morning.
Kevin Ryan : So our guy walked right in the front door, walked right out the back.
Kate Beckett : Which means we have no way of knowing where he went.
-
Javier Esposito : How long before the CIA connection comes out?
Kate Beckett : Not long. It's too big a story for the Agency to bury.
Kevin Ryan : Get ready for hearings out the wazoo.
-
Kate Beckett : Hey.
Lanie Parish : I'm gonna yell at you later, but for now, I'm just glad you're both okay.
-
Vikram Singh : Guys, this is it. If all goes well, we'll identify LokSat and finally take his ass down.
Kate Beckett : And if anything goes sideways, we immediately shut it down and meet up at the precinct. Got it?
Vikram Singh : Roger that.
-
Kevin Ryan : Who's LokSat?
Vikram Singh : Caleb left that message for Beckett.
Javier Esposito : You're still not answering the question, Vikram. Who the hell is LokSat?
Vikram Singh : The big bad wolf. The person behind Senator Bracken, Allison Hyde, the hit squads; every terrible thing that's happened to me and Beckett for the past nine months.
[Vikram notices Beckett has entered]
Kate Beckett : You shouldn't have told them.
Javier Esposito : [turning to face her] Yeah, you should've.
