1
00:00:01,192 --> 00:00:02,750
Last time on Castle...
2
00:00:02,794 --> 00:00:04,091
Ask me why I'm here.
3
00:00:04,128 --> 00:00:06,062
You know,
I ask myself that question every day.
4
00:00:06,097 --> 00:00:08,156
That was Paula, my agent,
with big news
5
00:00:08,199 --> 00:00:10,258
- about my book, Heat Wave.
- Mmm-hmm.
6
00:00:10,301 --> 00:00:11,859
Are they really making
a Nikki Heat movie?
7
00:00:11,903 --> 00:00:13,666
Dude, did I call it or what?
8
00:00:13,704 --> 00:00:16,195
And you are about to be immortalized
on the silver screen.
9
00:00:16,240 --> 00:00:18,333
Yeah, I'd like to report
a murder. I did it.
10
00:00:18,376 --> 00:00:21,573
He called to report his crime.
It's like he did this for fun.
11
00:00:22,113 --> 00:00:24,878
Nikki Heat.
He dedicated this murder to me.
12
00:00:24,917 --> 00:00:27,885
- Nikki Heat, I presume.
- It's Beckett.
13
00:00:27,919 --> 00:00:29,011
Special Agent Jordan Shaw.
14
00:00:29,053 --> 00:00:30,577
Tell me everything you know
about Jordan Shaw.
15
00:00:30,621 --> 00:00:32,020
She is like the federal you.
16
00:00:32,056 --> 00:00:34,854
If our killer is obsessed
with Nikki Heat, then so are we.
17
00:00:34,892 --> 00:00:36,553
So how long have you two
been sleeping together?
18
00:00:36,594 --> 00:00:39,792
- Excuse me?
- I am not going to leave you alone.
19
00:00:40,999 --> 00:00:43,193
Why don't you two escort the body
to the morgue?
20
00:00:43,234 --> 00:00:44,792
Once you're dressed, of course.
21
00:00:44,902 --> 00:00:46,631
B-U-R...
22
00:00:46,904 --> 00:00:50,635
- "Burn." Nikki will burn.
- Somebody always has to die, Nikki.
23
00:00:50,708 --> 00:00:52,643
If the man in the window
was Ben Conrad,
24
00:00:52,678 --> 00:00:53,940
he would've shot himself
on the left side.
25
00:00:53,979 --> 00:00:55,970
Ben's not our killer. Beckett.
26
00:00:59,483 --> 00:01:00,541
What, Castle?
27
00:01:00,785 --> 00:01:03,754
It wasn't Ben Conrad!
He's not the killer! The killer's still alive!
28
00:01:03,788 --> 00:01:05,881
The killer's still alive!
29
00:01:05,923 --> 00:01:08,256
Goodbye, Nikki.
Goodbye, Nikki.
30
00:01:23,609 --> 00:01:26,009
Kate! Are you in there? Kate?
31
00:01:32,416 --> 00:01:33,576
Kate?
32
00:01:36,188 --> 00:01:37,314
Kate!
33
00:01:44,630 --> 00:01:45,756
Kate?
34
00:01:50,202 --> 00:01:51,260
Kate!
35
00:01:53,438 --> 00:01:58,000
- You're alive. And you're naked.
- Castle, turn around!
36
00:01:59,745 --> 00:02:02,179
You know, your apartment is on fire,
37
00:02:02,214 --> 00:02:04,409
now might not be the best time
for modesty.
38
00:02:04,449 --> 00:02:06,713
Castle, hand me a towel!
39
00:02:07,686 --> 00:02:10,621
- The towels are on fire.
- Well, what about the bathrobe?
40
00:02:10,656 --> 00:02:11,884
The...
41
00:02:12,257 --> 00:02:13,918
Do you have anything to wear
that's non-flammable?
42
00:02:13,959 --> 00:02:15,517
- Castle.
- Sorry.
43
00:02:16,061 --> 00:02:17,892
Give me your jacket.
44
00:02:19,599 --> 00:02:21,463
- Don't look!
- I'm not.
45
00:02:21,900 --> 00:02:23,731
- Don't look.
- I'm not looking.
46
00:02:23,769 --> 00:02:24,895
Okay.
47
00:02:28,907 --> 00:02:30,272
- All right?
- Yeah.
48
00:02:30,976 --> 00:02:33,810
Okay. I dove into the tub just as it blew.
49
00:02:35,548 --> 00:02:37,174
Can you walk?
50
00:02:37,215 --> 00:02:39,183
Yeah, it's just a little banged up.
51
00:02:40,118 --> 00:02:43,451
- All right. Come on, nice and easy.
- Yeah.
52
00:02:43,488 --> 00:02:46,013
Nice and easy. Are you in any pain?
53
00:02:47,092 --> 00:02:50,961
Well, not nearly as much as you.
It's killing you, isn't it?
54
00:02:51,164 --> 00:02:52,324
What?
55
00:02:53,231 --> 00:02:56,428
Having to wait this long to tell me
how you banged down the door.
56
00:02:56,468 --> 00:02:57,799
You want me to start
from the beginning?
57
00:03:03,910 --> 00:03:05,605
- FBI.
- Over there.
58
00:03:07,180 --> 00:03:09,147
Beckett, how you doing?
59
00:03:10,015 --> 00:03:11,039
Yeah, I'm fine.
60
00:03:11,083 --> 00:03:12,846
What'd you see when you came home?
61
00:03:12,884 --> 00:03:17,117
The doors were locked like I left them,
the windows were shut.
62
00:03:17,156 --> 00:03:19,090
I don't know,
nothing seemed out of place.
63
00:03:19,125 --> 00:03:22,253
But I don't know,
because I thought the case was done.
64
00:03:22,562 --> 00:03:24,462
It's not. But you are.
65
00:03:25,630 --> 00:03:27,564
- What?
- Until we find the right guy.
66
00:03:27,599 --> 00:03:28,725
Wait.
67
00:03:29,801 --> 00:03:33,863
This is my apartment, okay,
my life and my case.
68
00:03:34,340 --> 00:03:35,739
Okay, fine.
69
00:03:36,776 --> 00:03:41,213
My rules. You do what I say,
when I say, and how I say it.
70
00:03:42,247 --> 00:03:44,909
And there will be a security detail
on you at all times.
71
00:03:44,950 --> 00:03:46,248
- Fine.
- Good.
72
00:03:46,285 --> 00:03:49,220
Fire's out.
You can head up now if you want.
73
00:04:02,802 --> 00:04:05,965
- Did anybody find my father's watch?
- It's not in the hall.
74
00:04:06,005 --> 00:04:07,666
Damage isn't as bad in your bedroom,
75
00:04:07,707 --> 00:04:10,141
but your clothes do smell
like smoke and explosives.
76
00:04:10,176 --> 00:04:13,145
Does anyone know if insurance pays
for dry cleaning?
77
00:04:13,179 --> 00:04:15,409
I've got the blast seat here.
78
00:04:16,015 --> 00:04:19,109
It had to have been a small device,
otherwise I would have seen it.
79
00:04:19,152 --> 00:04:22,451
The lab'll have the breakdown
by morning, but that's cyclonite.
80
00:04:22,488 --> 00:04:25,719
The same thing we found
in Ben Conrad's apartment.
81
00:04:26,259 --> 00:04:29,593
- So, what tipped you?
- It wasn't me. It was Castle.
82
00:04:30,563 --> 00:04:34,329
Our supposed killer, Ben
Conrad, shot himself with his right hand,
83
00:04:34,367 --> 00:04:36,995
yet the man that Detective Beckett
and I saw in the window
84
00:04:37,036 --> 00:04:39,095
was holding the gun in his left hand.
85
00:04:39,138 --> 00:04:41,470
The shot went off just as soon as
he stepped out of view.
86
00:04:41,507 --> 00:04:44,739
He wouldn't have... Couldn't have
had time to switch hands that fast.
87
00:04:44,778 --> 00:04:48,042
Our real killer shot Ben Conrad,
placed the gun in his hand,
88
00:04:48,081 --> 00:04:49,309
making it look like a suicide.
89
00:04:49,348 --> 00:04:50,406
We were outside the door.
90
00:04:50,450 --> 00:04:51,610
We heard the shot.
91
00:04:51,651 --> 00:04:52,675
- Go!
FBI!
92
00:04:52,718 --> 00:04:55,050
There is no way else
out of the apartment.
93
00:04:55,088 --> 00:04:56,817
So if Ben Conrad didn't kill himself...
94
00:04:56,856 --> 00:04:59,223
Then our killer was in the apartment
the whole time.
95
00:04:59,460 --> 00:05:02,486
- How the hell did we miss him?
Let's go find out.
96
00:05:14,141 --> 00:05:17,167
Hey, guys,
take a look in here.
97
00:05:20,046 --> 00:05:23,038
- I think I found something.
What've you got?
98
00:05:24,183 --> 00:05:26,117
Maybe his hiding place.
99
00:05:34,795 --> 00:05:35,818
Whoa.
100
00:05:36,529 --> 00:05:38,292
Discarded clothing.
101
00:05:38,898 --> 00:05:42,665
The exact same outfit Conrad
was wearing when we found him.
102
00:05:42,836 --> 00:05:46,033
Right down to a fake beard
to match Conrad's.
103
00:05:46,073 --> 00:05:48,507
The killer wanted us
to think he was Conrad.
104
00:05:48,542 --> 00:05:51,443
That's why the man that I saw
in the window,
105
00:05:52,078 --> 00:05:55,445
the one from our eyewitness
accounts, led us straight to Ben.
106
00:05:55,481 --> 00:05:58,474
Which means the real Ben Conrad
was being held hostage
107
00:05:58,519 --> 00:06:01,181
in his own apartment the entire case.
108
00:06:02,122 --> 00:06:04,750
He must have been bound
and duct taped,
109
00:06:04,791 --> 00:06:07,555
with no idea that he was being blamed
for three murders.
110
00:06:07,794 --> 00:06:09,727
Each of our victims
was carefully selected
111
00:06:09,762 --> 00:06:13,790
for their connection to Ben Conrad,
making him the perfect patsy.
112
00:06:13,834 --> 00:06:16,098
The killer's a chameleon,
changing his identity
113
00:06:16,136 --> 00:06:17,865
to get close to the victims.
114
00:06:17,905 --> 00:06:20,965
He becomes Ben Conrad,
becomes invisible.
115
00:06:21,008 --> 00:06:22,305
Nobody's looking for him.
116
00:06:22,342 --> 00:06:25,003
And then we come here, and we find
exactly what we expect to find.
117
00:06:25,044 --> 00:06:27,707
Our suspect dead on the ground.
Case closed.
118
00:06:27,748 --> 00:06:31,309
Meanwhile, our killer was
right here, hidden in this secret room.
119
00:06:31,351 --> 00:06:33,478
He was here the whole time
and we missed him.
120
00:06:36,156 --> 00:06:38,852
I'll get the evidence team
down here. See what they can find.
121
00:06:38,892 --> 00:06:41,952
- Beckett.
You are supposed to be dead.
122
00:06:42,996 --> 00:06:46,261
- I'm sorry to disappoint you.
- It was supposed to be over, Nikki.
123
00:06:46,300 --> 00:06:50,964
It was supposed to be done.
But now, now I have to keep going.
124
00:06:51,004 --> 00:06:52,232
No!
125
00:07:04,952 --> 00:07:08,787
He used her cell phone and
then he left it on so we could trace it.
126
00:07:08,823 --> 00:07:13,589
Gloria Rodriguez. It's her ID badge
from a hotel in Midtown.
127
00:07:13,627 --> 00:07:15,492
Probably on her way home from work.
128
00:07:15,529 --> 00:07:17,497
Huh... Found a slug.
129
00:07:17,531 --> 00:07:19,089
Letter etching?
130
00:07:19,700 --> 00:07:23,797
No, it looks clean.
The other murders were planned.
131
00:07:24,339 --> 00:07:27,638
This one was done out of anger.
Wanting to be in control.
132
00:07:27,675 --> 00:07:28,972
All because I lived.
133
00:07:29,010 --> 00:07:31,307
You can't blame yourself
for that.
134
00:07:33,313 --> 00:07:35,406
How did he know you lived?
135
00:07:37,284 --> 00:07:40,948
He was watching. At the aftermath.
136
00:07:41,356 --> 00:07:43,824
Everything about
this guy's profile tells me
137
00:07:43,858 --> 00:07:46,087
he was watching
at the other crime scenes.
138
00:07:46,260 --> 00:07:48,956
Yeah, but the first thing we did
was compare crime scene photos.
139
00:07:48,996 --> 00:07:51,556
Yeah, I know, we ran them through
facial recognition.
140
00:07:51,598 --> 00:07:53,464
But he was there. I know he was there.
141
00:07:53,501 --> 00:07:56,129
He wouldn't be in the crowd,
he'd know that's where we'd look.
142
00:07:56,170 --> 00:07:59,196
No. He hides in plain sight.
He's a chameleon.
143
00:07:59,407 --> 00:08:04,503
We didn't see him in the crowd
because he was dressed as one of us.
144
00:08:05,545 --> 00:08:09,983
Same cop, 30 photos, not one
of them has a clear shot of his face.
145
00:08:10,018 --> 00:08:12,179
That is not a coincidence.
146
00:08:12,220 --> 00:08:15,121
- He knew where the camera was.
He knows our playbook.
147
00:08:15,189 --> 00:08:17,521
I'm gonna get Ryan and Esposito
to canvass the other uniforms,
148
00:08:17,558 --> 00:08:21,289
- maybe they can get a description.
- Not that it'll do any good.
149
00:08:21,329 --> 00:08:24,230
The last sketch we got of this guy,
he looked like Ben Conrad.
150
00:08:24,265 --> 00:08:28,167
Okay, do you have a better idea?
'Cause I'm all out,
151
00:08:28,202 --> 00:08:30,534
and if we don't catch him soon,
he's gonna kill again.
152
00:08:30,571 --> 00:08:32,766
- You can't take this personally.
- The hell I can't.
153
00:08:32,807 --> 00:08:36,709
He just blew up my apartment.
I think that's pretty damn personal.
154
00:08:36,744 --> 00:08:39,212
Do you know
how they caught Son of Sam?
155
00:08:39,414 --> 00:08:42,474
A parking ticket. Berkowitz parked
too close to a fire hydrant.
156
00:08:42,517 --> 00:08:46,817
All we need to find is our parking ticket
and we catch this son of a bitch.
157
00:08:46,854 --> 00:08:50,552
As smart as he is,
he's got a fatal flaw. Hubris.
158
00:08:50,592 --> 00:08:53,287
It's not enough for him to be smart.
He wants us to know it.
159
00:08:53,328 --> 00:08:55,796
He wants us to know he fooled us.
160
00:08:55,830 --> 00:09:00,199
All of his first victims,
the personal injury lawyer,
161
00:09:00,234 --> 00:09:02,794
the dog walker, the taxidermist,
162
00:09:03,204 --> 00:09:06,902
they all link back to the death
of Ben Conrad's dog.
163
00:09:08,209 --> 00:09:12,145
How could our killer have known
all the players in someone else's life?
164
00:09:12,180 --> 00:09:15,547
- He must've known Ben Conrad.
- So that's where we start.
165
00:09:15,583 --> 00:09:19,418
We treat Ben Conrad as the first victim
in this case.
166
00:09:19,888 --> 00:09:22,948
And then we find out
where he intersected with our killer.
167
00:09:26,394 --> 00:09:29,886
- Dad!
- Hey. Hey, hey. I'm all right.
168
00:09:29,931 --> 00:09:32,456
- I'm all right.
- Where's Detective Beckett?
169
00:09:32,500 --> 00:09:34,128
At the precinct.
170
00:09:34,603 --> 00:09:37,231
I can't imagine
how she survived that explosion.
171
00:09:37,272 --> 00:09:39,638
- Where was she when it went off?
- She was there.
172
00:09:39,675 --> 00:09:41,972
She jumped into the bathtub.
173
00:09:42,009 --> 00:09:45,069
The bathroom door and the cast-iron
tub protected her from the blast.
174
00:09:45,113 --> 00:09:46,171
Oh!
175
00:09:46,748 --> 00:09:49,115
Dad, why is that person
going after Detective Beckett?
176
00:09:49,151 --> 00:09:50,948
At the moment,
all we have is a theory, but...
177
00:09:52,087 --> 00:09:55,113
But we know more now,
and we have a strategy.
178
00:09:55,157 --> 00:09:57,818
- Do you think he'll come after you?
- No, sweetheart, I'm going to be fine.
179
00:09:57,859 --> 00:09:59,850
You are stuck with me for a long,
long time.
180
00:09:59,894 --> 00:10:02,260
I'm supposed to move out today.
I think I should stay here with Alexis.
181
00:10:02,296 --> 00:10:04,697
There's no need. Montgomery has
someone keeping an eagle eye
182
00:10:04,733 --> 00:10:08,601
on our building, but all the same,
we should be on the alert.
183
00:10:11,507 --> 00:10:14,475
I need to go change, go back and help.
184
00:10:16,344 --> 00:10:19,109
See, he's okay.
185
00:10:21,550 --> 00:10:22,642
Hey.
186
00:10:23,051 --> 00:10:25,679
Hey. Where is everybody?
187
00:10:26,588 --> 00:10:29,750
Ryan and Esposito
are talking to Conrad's sister,
188
00:10:29,791 --> 00:10:33,387
and Agent Shaw is briefing the mayor.
189
00:10:33,429 --> 00:10:34,453
Oh.
190
00:10:34,897 --> 00:10:36,626
I'm sure he'll be less than thrilled
to learn that
191
00:10:36,665 --> 00:10:38,963
Conrad is just another victim.
192
00:10:39,201 --> 00:10:40,600
Nothing like the threat
of being murdered
193
00:10:40,636 --> 00:10:42,729
by a serial killer to stifle tourism.
194
00:10:42,771 --> 00:10:45,204
Yeah, and it doesn't help
that everyone in the city thinks
195
00:10:45,239 --> 00:10:46,537
that we caught the guy.
196
00:10:46,575 --> 00:10:49,271
Speaking of Ben Conrad,
what have you found out?
197
00:10:49,311 --> 00:10:51,302
Thirty-four years old. Never married.
198
00:10:51,346 --> 00:10:53,507
I'm going out on a limb here
and saying,
199
00:10:53,549 --> 00:10:56,882
judging from his relationship
with his dog, Mr. Bumpkins,
200
00:10:56,919 --> 00:10:58,216
he didn't have a girlfriend.
201
00:10:58,253 --> 00:10:59,345
Yeah, well, other than the people that
202
00:10:59,388 --> 00:11:01,481
we've already run down
from the dog park,
203
00:11:01,523 --> 00:11:04,356
- he doesn't even have friends.
- The man stuffed his dog.
204
00:11:04,393 --> 00:11:07,760
Well, Conrad's sister confirms
that he was a Ioner.
205
00:11:07,796 --> 00:11:09,787
He told her when he lost his job
a couple of months ago
206
00:11:09,832 --> 00:11:11,857
that he spent his days
emailing resumes
207
00:11:11,900 --> 00:11:13,834
at coffee shops that offer free internet.
208
00:11:13,869 --> 00:11:16,862
And other than Bumpkins,
his only other joy in life was the Knicks.
209
00:11:16,906 --> 00:11:17,929
Poor guy.
210
00:11:17,973 --> 00:11:21,204
Jordan said the profile
indicated that the killer hunted Conrad.
211
00:11:21,243 --> 00:11:23,939
If he wasn't a friend, then he must have
met up with him somewhere
212
00:11:23,979 --> 00:11:25,674
where people strike up
a casual conversation.
213
00:11:25,714 --> 00:11:28,410
We figure if he camped out
with his laptop at a coffee shop,
214
00:11:28,450 --> 00:11:31,079
our killer could've sat down next to him
and they got to talking.
215
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,884
His sister said
that he was a Knicks fan?
216
00:11:34,456 --> 00:11:36,651
What's missing from these pictures?
217
00:11:36,692 --> 00:11:37,920
- Good taste.
- Area rug.
218
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,155
- Decent lighting.
- A TV.
219
00:11:40,662 --> 00:11:44,258
Which means he would have to walk to
a local bar in order to watch the games.
220
00:11:44,300 --> 00:11:46,598
Yeah, if you're a Knicks fan, you gotta
share your pain with somebody.
221
00:11:46,636 --> 00:11:48,627
- True.
- Okay, you two take all the coffee shops
222
00:11:48,671 --> 00:11:50,865
within a five-block radius
of Conrad's apartment,
223
00:11:50,906 --> 00:11:53,033
see if anyone remembers him talking
to a customer.
224
00:11:53,075 --> 00:11:56,101
Castle and I will take the bars.
And if you keep quoting Jordan,
225
00:11:56,144 --> 00:11:58,670
I'm going to turn the radio way up.
226
00:11:59,549 --> 00:12:00,811
Jealous.
227
00:12:06,822 --> 00:12:08,221
Pub crawls are supposed to
greet you
228
00:12:08,257 --> 00:12:09,656
with a smile and a shot of Jager.
229
00:12:09,691 --> 00:12:12,023
Not, "No, we've never seen that guy
before, keep moving."
230
00:12:12,060 --> 00:12:14,461
This is beginning to feel pointless.
231
00:12:14,497 --> 00:12:18,263
Buck up, Castle.
I've got a feeling this place is different.
232
00:12:22,839 --> 00:12:25,966
It's still an ongoing investigation,
so we're going to need you
233
00:12:26,008 --> 00:12:27,442
to take that banner down.
234
00:12:27,477 --> 00:12:29,638
I was just trying to work an angle.
235
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:33,877
You should understand what it's like
being a woman in a man's world.
236
00:12:34,884 --> 00:12:39,014
Did Ben Conrad ever talk to you about
the recent death of his dog?
237
00:12:39,055 --> 00:12:43,116
Sure. He loved to flap his gums to me
about that little drop-kick.
238
00:12:43,159 --> 00:12:44,524
One time he cried.
239
00:12:44,561 --> 00:12:46,756
Well, what about the other customers?
He ever talk to them?
240
00:12:46,796 --> 00:12:49,287
He mostly drank alone
and watched the games.
241
00:12:49,332 --> 00:12:51,562
Though a couple of weeks ago,
he did strike it up with some guy.
242
00:12:51,601 --> 00:12:53,899
- Can you describe him?
- Average-Iooking.
243
00:12:53,937 --> 00:12:57,498
A bit off, like Conrad.
They sat at that high top over there.
244
00:12:57,540 --> 00:13:00,008
I figured hey, birds of a feather.
245
00:13:00,743 --> 00:13:03,735
This other guy,
did he ever pay with a credit card?
246
00:13:03,780 --> 00:13:05,941
The only time he ever said
two words to me was the other week
247
00:13:05,982 --> 00:13:08,007
when he asked me to call him a cab.
248
00:13:08,051 --> 00:13:10,383
- Do you remember when?
- I remember exactly when.
249
00:13:10,486 --> 00:13:14,047
The Knicks were in overtime and
I missed the end while I was on hold.
250
00:13:14,357 --> 00:13:15,381
Thanks.
251
00:13:15,425 --> 00:13:17,893
Cab company said
that they sent a taxi there,
252
00:13:17,927 --> 00:13:20,020
10:45 the night of the Knicks game.
253
00:13:20,063 --> 00:13:22,054
- You got the drop-off point?
- Yeah. West Village,
254
00:13:22,098 --> 00:13:24,498
corner of Varick and Downing.
255
00:13:24,801 --> 00:13:25,826
Home?
256
00:13:25,869 --> 00:13:29,429
I bet about 50,000 people live
within walking distance of that corner.
257
00:13:29,472 --> 00:13:33,431
- We could canvass local businesses.
- For an average-Iooking white guy?
258
00:13:33,476 --> 00:13:36,104
We can't even be sure
what he looks like.
259
00:13:36,145 --> 00:13:38,841
Looks aren't the only method
we have to identify him.
260
00:13:38,881 --> 00:13:40,543
We also have behavior.
261
00:13:40,584 --> 00:13:42,814
You think you can identify him
through behavior?
262
00:13:42,853 --> 00:13:45,719
Originally, his behavior
seemed inconsistent,
263
00:13:45,755 --> 00:13:48,781
but that was because
he was pretending to be someone else.
264
00:13:48,825 --> 00:13:52,488
We know a lot more now.
He is a show-off,
265
00:13:52,528 --> 00:13:55,862
a game player
with an exceptionally high IQ.
266
00:13:55,899 --> 00:14:00,393
But it's not enough to be smart,
he also has a pathological need
267
00:14:00,437 --> 00:14:04,839
to validate it, which tells me that
he probably belongs to an organization
268
00:14:04,874 --> 00:14:08,332
like Mensa or Prometheus.
269
00:14:08,378 --> 00:14:13,248
He's a chameleon, so we can assume
that he's living under a stolen identity.
270
00:14:13,283 --> 00:14:15,843
And he is literate.
271
00:14:15,886 --> 00:14:20,083
He has already shown certain
dispositions in his fascination
272
00:14:20,123 --> 00:14:25,391
with Nikki Heat, so we've drawn up
a list of periodicals and magazines
273
00:14:25,429 --> 00:14:27,693
that he likely subscribes to.
274
00:14:28,699 --> 00:14:30,326
- I get half of these.
Yes.
275
00:14:30,367 --> 00:14:33,995
And you also kill people for a living.
In your books.
276
00:14:35,004 --> 00:14:36,835
This is a pretty wide net.
277
00:14:36,873 --> 00:14:42,437
So is Varick and Downing, and so are
memberships in high-IQ societies,
278
00:14:42,479 --> 00:14:46,939
but put them all together,
and sometimes we get lucky.
279
00:14:47,317 --> 00:14:49,410
You mean like
Berkowitz's parking ticket?
280
00:14:49,453 --> 00:14:51,716
It's not always that neat.
You just keep adding pieces
281
00:14:51,754 --> 00:14:54,155
of the puzzle until a picture emerges.
282
00:14:54,191 --> 00:14:57,354
Collated subscription
information from the profiled periodicals,
283
00:14:57,394 --> 00:15:00,921
as well as member lists from high-IQ
organizations within a one-mile radius
284
00:15:00,964 --> 00:15:03,125
of the Varick and Downing area.
285
00:15:04,535 --> 00:15:08,403
- We got seventeen hits.
- Run the names through our database.
286
00:15:08,439 --> 00:15:11,340
Most serials have some kind of
indication of violent behavior.
287
00:15:11,375 --> 00:15:13,741
Criminal or psychiatric records.
288
00:15:15,012 --> 00:15:17,037
Negative for any matches.
289
00:15:17,281 --> 00:15:19,010
All right, at least we gave it a shot.
290
00:15:19,049 --> 00:15:20,311
I'll have our teams
interview these guys...
291
00:15:20,350 --> 00:15:22,215
- Huh.
- "Huh," what?
292
00:15:22,252 --> 00:15:24,846
This one here. Chris Doherty.
293
00:15:24,888 --> 00:15:26,549
He's got a recent driver's license,
294
00:15:26,590 --> 00:15:29,218
but according to
his Social Security number,
295
00:15:29,259 --> 00:15:32,251
Chris Doherty died six years ago.
296
00:15:32,663 --> 00:15:35,530
He's living under a stolen identity.
297
00:15:35,666 --> 00:15:38,363
So, does it say where
our dead guy supposedly lived?
298
00:15:41,138 --> 00:15:43,800
His address puts him
half a block from Downing and Varick.
299
00:15:43,841 --> 00:15:46,366
Okay, now I'm officially impressed.
300
00:15:46,643 --> 00:15:49,635
Don't be. Not until he's in our custody.
Let's roll.
301
00:16:00,290 --> 00:16:01,723
Go, go, go!
302
00:16:05,864 --> 00:16:07,331
Den's clear.
303
00:16:07,499 --> 00:16:09,057
Bedroom, clear!
304
00:16:09,434 --> 00:16:10,458
All clear.
305
00:17:15,834 --> 00:17:17,768
He's done this before.
306
00:17:25,043 --> 00:17:28,945
Hey, I signed this.
"To Scott. Write what you know."
307
00:17:28,980 --> 00:17:31,107
Scott. Do you remember him?
308
00:17:31,149 --> 00:17:33,583
No. But I sign hundreds of books.
309
00:17:34,619 --> 00:17:36,280
His manifesto?
310
00:17:36,387 --> 00:17:38,514
- His manuscript.
- Dead Heat?
311
00:17:39,023 --> 00:17:40,047
"Heat examined the bullets,
312
00:17:40,091 --> 00:17:43,185
"each of them perfectly engraved
with a letter.
313
00:17:43,494 --> 00:17:46,896
"She rearranged them like Scrabble
tiles until they spelled her name."
314
00:17:46,932 --> 00:17:49,866
A book. All of this over a damn book.
315
00:17:49,901 --> 00:17:53,496
He was writing about his murders
long before Nikki Heat.
316
00:17:53,538 --> 00:17:55,028
Night Terrors.
317
00:17:55,073 --> 00:17:57,769
Looks like it's about killing prostitutes
in Seattle.
318
00:17:57,809 --> 00:18:00,973
I remember that case.
I thought they caught that guy.
319
00:18:01,013 --> 00:18:04,574
Not so much "caught" as "found dead."
He hanged himself.
320
00:18:04,817 --> 00:18:07,376
Another patsy, just like Ben Conrad.
321
00:18:07,552 --> 00:18:10,578
He gets away with murder.
Why would he write about it?
322
00:18:10,622 --> 00:18:12,214
Why risk it?
323
00:18:12,523 --> 00:18:16,927
Writing is probably a symptom
of his psychosis, like taking a trophy.
324
00:18:17,263 --> 00:18:20,699
He both memorializes the deed
and distances himself from it
325
00:18:20,733 --> 00:18:22,962
by turning fact into fiction.
326
00:18:23,001 --> 00:18:25,561
And then along comes Nikki Heat,
327
00:18:26,404 --> 00:18:31,672
tailor-made for his psychosis,
one part fact, one part fiction,
328
00:18:31,710 --> 00:18:33,234
just like him.
329
00:18:33,279 --> 00:18:35,008
Who better for him to challenge?
330
00:18:35,047 --> 00:18:37,675
He must have known
by going after Beckett
331
00:18:37,716 --> 00:18:40,582
we'd realize Ben wasn't the killer.
Why tip his hand?
332
00:18:40,618 --> 00:18:42,085
It's part of the thrill.
333
00:18:42,120 --> 00:18:44,453
He needed to escalate
in order to feel alive.
334
00:18:44,657 --> 00:18:48,821
Or he's a psychotic
obsessive-compulsive
335
00:18:48,861 --> 00:18:50,852
and has already decided
how it has to end.
336
00:18:50,896 --> 00:18:52,090
Agent Shaw.
337
00:18:52,131 --> 00:18:53,962
Been dusting for prints
trying to get an ID.
338
00:18:53,999 --> 00:18:56,262
Problem is, there aren't any.
339
00:18:56,401 --> 00:18:59,496
That's not possible. You can't live
in a place without leaving prints.
340
00:18:59,672 --> 00:19:01,640
Unless he doesn't have any.
341
00:19:01,707 --> 00:19:03,834
He likes to play with fire.
Maybe he burned them off.
342
00:19:03,876 --> 00:19:06,242
Well, without prints, we can't get an ID.
343
00:19:06,278 --> 00:19:08,508
We don't need an ID.
Put this back where you found it.
344
00:19:08,547 --> 00:19:10,480
Let's un-ass this place right now.
345
00:19:10,515 --> 00:19:12,847
He's got to come back sometime.
346
00:19:18,624 --> 00:19:21,457
Agent Shaw, the surveillance
team is moving into position now.
347
00:19:21,493 --> 00:19:23,393
Copy that, standing by.
348
00:19:26,898 --> 00:19:29,561
Be advised.
Our subject is a white male,
349
00:19:29,601 --> 00:19:32,695
6'2", approximately 200 pounds.
350
00:19:32,738 --> 00:19:36,071
Profile suggests he's studied our tactics
and has prepared for contingencies,
351
00:19:36,108 --> 00:19:38,042
so communicate, people.
352
00:19:38,143 --> 00:19:41,169
If he shows, no one, I repeat,
no one is to make a move
353
00:19:41,213 --> 00:19:43,647
until Agent Shaw gives the order.
354
00:19:44,917 --> 00:19:49,217
Man, it's all here. The engraved bullets.
The cat-and-mouse phone calls.
355
00:19:49,254 --> 00:19:50,448
The cipher. Only it's...
356
00:19:50,489 --> 00:19:53,356
It's Nikki Heat investigating
and she's always one step behind him.
357
00:19:53,392 --> 00:19:55,189
- Until now.
- Castle,
358
00:19:55,227 --> 00:19:58,095
what part of "un-ass"
don't you understand?
359
00:19:58,832 --> 00:20:00,196
All of it.
360
00:20:00,666 --> 00:20:04,898
For future reference, it means
get the hell out and don't take anything.
361
00:20:04,937 --> 00:20:08,202
Un-ass. Nice. Un-ass.
362
00:20:09,208 --> 00:20:10,698
Is he always like this?
363
00:20:10,743 --> 00:20:13,941
Castle has the attention span
of a cocker spaniel.
364
00:20:13,980 --> 00:20:17,710
Mmm. And the loyalty.
The way he follows you around.
365
00:20:18,083 --> 00:20:22,884
From what I've observed,
this unorthodox partnership
366
00:20:23,689 --> 00:20:25,486
works well for you.
367
00:20:25,725 --> 00:20:26,987
For now.
368
00:20:27,727 --> 00:20:29,217
Is it enough?
369
00:20:30,063 --> 00:20:33,122
Is it enough for you to hop on a Lear jet
six times a year,
370
00:20:33,165 --> 00:20:35,633
catching serial killers
across the country?
371
00:20:35,667 --> 00:20:38,192
I'd be lying if I said it was easy.
372
00:20:38,971 --> 00:20:40,667
How do you manage?
373
00:20:41,941 --> 00:20:44,637
You miss a few birthdays
and make a lot of phone calls.
374
00:20:47,614 --> 00:20:50,275
My husband tucks her in every night,
375
00:20:50,315 --> 00:20:53,216
tells her that Mommy's off
slaying dragons.
376
00:20:54,821 --> 00:20:58,985
The trick to this kind of operation
is having enough personnel in play
377
00:20:59,025 --> 00:21:00,356
to take the target down,
378
00:21:00,393 --> 00:21:02,918
but not so many
that he can smell a trap.
379
00:21:02,962 --> 00:21:05,896
Which is why we have to
get our people to go downwind.
380
00:21:05,931 --> 00:21:10,266
Avery, tell our guy on the roof
to find another spot.
381
00:21:10,303 --> 00:21:12,771
- I can see him from the street.
Say again.
382
00:21:12,806 --> 00:21:16,742
The guy on the roof. Southeast corner.
The one with the binocs.
383
00:21:17,077 --> 00:21:19,409
We don't have anybody up there.
384
00:21:19,646 --> 00:21:22,113
It's him. All units, be advised.
385
00:21:22,147 --> 00:21:25,709
We have contact, southeast
corner of Bedford and Downing.
386
00:21:25,752 --> 00:21:27,686
Subject is on the roof.
387
00:21:30,290 --> 00:21:32,918
We're blown! We're blown.
All units, go hot now!
388
00:21:37,396 --> 00:21:39,957
Stay in the van. You're the target.
389
00:21:42,302 --> 00:21:44,566
Now you know what it's like for me.
390
00:21:46,906 --> 00:21:48,168
Take it.
391
00:21:49,876 --> 00:21:51,366
Seal off the west side.
392
00:21:53,780 --> 00:21:57,079
That's him.
He must've jumped the rooftops.
393
00:21:57,250 --> 00:21:58,945
He's getting away.
394
00:22:00,353 --> 00:22:01,877
Beckett, wait!
395
00:22:12,332 --> 00:22:13,697
Pardon me.
396
00:22:19,172 --> 00:22:21,436
NYPD! On the ground, now!
397
00:22:24,111 --> 00:22:25,442
Get down!
398
00:22:32,085 --> 00:22:36,318
Stop! Stop! Police!
399
00:23:01,781 --> 00:23:03,112
Watch out!
400
00:23:24,338 --> 00:23:25,828
Freeze image.
401
00:23:26,307 --> 00:23:27,604
Zoom in.
402
00:23:31,744 --> 00:23:33,006
Run it.
403
00:23:33,313 --> 00:23:35,475
Running facial recognition.
404
00:23:38,485 --> 00:23:41,545
- Scott Dunn.
- Busted, you smug jackhole.
405
00:23:41,722 --> 00:23:43,986
Foster child,
sealed juvie record,
406
00:23:44,024 --> 00:23:46,083
three-year stint
in a Bay area psychiatric institute,
407
00:23:46,126 --> 00:23:48,218
and a single arson conviction.
408
00:23:48,428 --> 00:23:51,796
- Where he burns his hands in a fire.
- He hit all the clichés.
409
00:23:51,832 --> 00:23:56,326
Last seen February 15, 2004.
Six years ago, he simply disappears.
410
00:23:56,370 --> 00:24:00,966
I want every bit of research you have
on this guy on my desk, half an hour.
411
00:24:02,476 --> 00:24:05,206
I'll have my guys contact Dunn's family
in case he reaches out.
412
00:24:05,246 --> 00:24:07,077
- You're out.
- I'm sorry. What?
413
00:24:07,114 --> 00:24:09,639
- I told you to stay in the van.
- I just broke this case.
414
00:24:09,683 --> 00:24:11,878
- I need people backing me I can trust.
- Hold on...
415
00:24:11,919 --> 00:24:14,581
Sorry, Detective. You're off the case.
416
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,459
She's got jurisdiction,
Beckett. There's nothing I can do.
417
00:24:20,561 --> 00:24:23,587
Sir, this is my case.
He's coming after me.
418
00:24:23,664 --> 00:24:26,155
Like it or not,
I'm already on the front line.
419
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,259
You and Castle found him.
That's the hard part.
420
00:24:28,302 --> 00:24:31,169
They've frozen his financials,
they've alerted TSA,
421
00:24:31,205 --> 00:24:33,037
his face is all over the news.
We got him cornered.
422
00:24:33,074 --> 00:24:35,838
And you're the one who taught me that
when you have an animal cornered,
423
00:24:35,877 --> 00:24:37,673
that's when
they're the most unpredictable.
424
00:24:37,711 --> 00:24:39,611
Yes, and that's also
when they make mistakes.
425
00:24:39,647 --> 00:24:41,842
He does something stupid,
and we will take him down.
426
00:24:41,882 --> 00:24:43,349
And you've been running flat out
for days.
427
00:24:43,384 --> 00:24:44,681
You need to go home
and get some sleep.
428
00:24:44,718 --> 00:24:47,654
- Sir, I don't have a home.
Yes, you do.
429
00:24:48,957 --> 00:24:50,925
It's a secure building
with an extra bedroom,
430
00:24:50,959 --> 00:24:52,654
with people who care about you.
431
00:24:52,693 --> 00:24:55,287
With the Federal detail at the door,
it's the safest place in the city.
432
00:24:55,329 --> 00:24:58,730
- Thank you, Castle, but I couldn't.
- You can and you will.
433
00:24:59,033 --> 00:25:01,901
Detective, I took that security off
of your apartment
434
00:25:01,936 --> 00:25:03,767
and that gave him an opportunity
to get to you.
435
00:25:03,805 --> 00:25:06,535
I'm not gonna make
that same mistake twice!
436
00:25:06,574 --> 00:25:08,439
Consider it an order.
437
00:25:15,984 --> 00:25:20,580
Who would have thought that I would
be homeless and case-less in one day.
438
00:25:21,556 --> 00:25:26,151
I know I'm the king of going rogue,
but you were right to chase after Dunn.
439
00:25:26,593 --> 00:25:29,187
And Agent Shaw was right
to kick me off the case.
440
00:25:29,229 --> 00:25:33,860
I would have done the same thing
if I was in her spot. I'm too close to it.
441
00:25:34,569 --> 00:25:38,061
I'm sure after all this, you're a little
sorry you let me follow you around.
442
00:25:38,106 --> 00:25:39,596
No, not this.
443
00:25:39,641 --> 00:25:43,201
All the other annoying things
that you do, but not this.
444
00:25:44,178 --> 00:25:45,840
What about you?
445
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:47,871
Are you sorry
that you ever wrote Heat Wave?
446
00:25:47,916 --> 00:25:50,384
The way I look at it now,
if it wasn't for Nikki Heat,
447
00:25:50,418 --> 00:25:52,283
this guy would've just gone on killing
448
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:56,120
because he wouldn't have met anyone
smart enough to catch him.
449
00:25:56,157 --> 00:25:59,422
I'm speaking, of course,
about Special Agent Shaw.
450
00:26:01,062 --> 00:26:03,724
- Good night, Castle.
- Good night.
451
00:26:05,333 --> 00:26:08,996
First thing in the morning
I'll check your homework, okay?
452
00:26:09,404 --> 00:26:11,964
It's time for you to get some sleep.
453
00:26:14,509 --> 00:26:18,707
Okay. I love you, too, sweetie.
454
00:26:19,881 --> 00:26:21,314
Good night.
455
00:26:37,699 --> 00:26:38,893
Hello, Jordan.
456
00:26:48,109 --> 00:26:49,337
Martha.
457
00:26:49,878 --> 00:26:51,004
Kate.
458
00:26:51,613 --> 00:26:54,639
I'm here on orders from the FBI.
459
00:26:55,550 --> 00:26:57,542
Darling, I'm hardly the one to judge.
460
00:26:57,586 --> 00:27:00,646
I'm sorry, I wouldn't impose,
but my place is...
461
00:27:00,689 --> 00:27:02,384
Ashes. No, I know.
462
00:27:02,425 --> 00:27:07,691
Well, that explains the pat-down
by the hunky guy with the ear bud.
463
00:27:07,962 --> 00:27:09,930
I assumed it was Richard
making a dramatic statement
464
00:27:09,964 --> 00:27:13,594
about the conditions
for my dropping by unannounced.
465
00:27:13,803 --> 00:27:18,035
I just woke up and literally smelled
the coffee and the bacon.
466
00:27:18,541 --> 00:27:22,169
- Dropping by to return your key?
- Very funny, very funny.
467
00:27:22,210 --> 00:27:26,341
No, I am looking for my aqua gloves
because these clash.
468
00:27:26,615 --> 00:27:28,242
Well, she cooks.
469
00:27:28,317 --> 00:27:31,081
Actually, my mom was
an amazing cook.
470
00:27:31,120 --> 00:27:34,817
She used to make Sunday brunch,
and I would get the choice
471
00:27:34,857 --> 00:27:38,257
between pancakes, omelets, waffles...
472
00:27:38,293 --> 00:27:40,694
Wow, that's funny,
every Sunday my mom would have me
473
00:27:40,729 --> 00:27:43,721
make her an ice pack
and a Bloody Mary.
474
00:27:43,766 --> 00:27:47,725
Don't listen to him.
That only happened twice, tops.
475
00:27:48,904 --> 00:27:52,566
Gram!
- There's my girl. I missed you.
476
00:27:52,607 --> 00:27:54,302
I missed you, too.
477
00:27:54,509 --> 00:27:56,705
You'd think it was months.
It's been a day.
478
00:27:57,913 --> 00:27:59,312
Excuse me.
479
00:28:02,117 --> 00:28:03,379
Beckett.
480
00:28:05,421 --> 00:28:07,480
Okay. I'll be right there.
481
00:28:08,823 --> 00:28:12,988
Castle, that was Agent Avery.
Jordan never made it home last night.
482
00:28:19,101 --> 00:28:21,569
She left the precinct
just after 9:00.
483
00:28:21,604 --> 00:28:23,071
Her husband said
she never came home.
484
00:28:23,105 --> 00:28:25,335
- What about the car?
- Stationary at this location
485
00:28:25,374 --> 00:28:28,036
since the transmitter
was activated 20 minutes ago.
486
00:28:28,210 --> 00:28:31,179
Our vehicle security tech said
this was his way in.
487
00:28:31,213 --> 00:28:35,047
So, he was already in the car
waiting for her when she got in.
488
00:28:37,786 --> 00:28:40,779
- Her purse is still in here.
There's no bullet hole.
489
00:28:40,824 --> 00:28:43,018
Medium velocity spatter.
490
00:28:43,425 --> 00:28:47,521
So he leans in from behind,
she elbows him in the nose,
491
00:28:47,696 --> 00:28:49,357
he recoils
492
00:28:49,999 --> 00:28:53,333
and a blood trail flies
from that direction.
493
00:28:53,403 --> 00:28:55,030
She took her shot.
494
00:28:55,071 --> 00:28:57,334
And left us
some bread crumbs.
495
00:29:01,710 --> 00:29:04,577
- Here's another one.
And another one here.
496
00:29:05,314 --> 00:29:09,251
His nose is still bleeding,
but he has Jordan at gunpoint.
497
00:29:10,220 --> 00:29:12,211
And he brings her to here,
where there's a car waiting.
498
00:29:12,255 --> 00:29:13,619
There's tire treads.
499
00:29:13,656 --> 00:29:16,147
Let's run down reports of all stolen
vehicles from the past 24 hours.
500
00:29:19,929 --> 00:29:20,987
Beckett.
501
00:29:21,030 --> 00:29:22,293
There's nothing
like the bond between
502
00:29:22,332 --> 00:29:25,233
girlfriends, is there, Nikki?
You must really miss her.
503
00:29:25,969 --> 00:29:28,904
- Where is she?
- Safe for now.
504
00:29:29,506 --> 00:29:33,566
- Lf you hurt her, I will...
- That all depends on you, doesn't it?
505
00:29:33,842 --> 00:29:37,540
This is your story, Nikki, not hers.
She's just an extra.
506
00:29:37,581 --> 00:29:40,243
The showdown only works
if it's between you and me.
507
00:29:40,283 --> 00:29:43,719
Come to the Battery Park Ferry
terminal at midnight tonight, Nikki.
508
00:29:43,753 --> 00:29:46,414
And come alone or she dies.
509
00:29:46,622 --> 00:29:49,557
- How can I be sure she's still alive?
- I'll send you an e-mail.
510
00:29:56,866 --> 00:29:59,767
- Say hi to your friends, Agent Shaw.
- Go to hell, Dunn.
511
00:30:01,104 --> 00:30:03,537
I don't care if it's your story, Detective.
I'm bringing her back alive.
512
00:30:03,572 --> 00:30:05,734
It's not my story, it's his.
513
00:30:06,810 --> 00:30:09,643
And if Agent Shaw was here,
she'd say the same thing.
514
00:30:09,679 --> 00:30:13,342
- Whatever he's got planned, it's a trap.
- Lf I don't show up, she dies.
515
00:30:13,383 --> 00:30:15,180
But if you do, you both die.
516
00:30:15,218 --> 00:30:17,152
We need to get to him
before the exchange.
517
00:30:17,187 --> 00:30:21,146
We traced the e-mail's IP address
to an internet cafe in Midtown.
518
00:30:21,191 --> 00:30:23,455
Not that it helps us find her.
519
00:30:25,895 --> 00:30:29,023
There's no reflective surfaces
and the windows are all blacked out.
520
00:30:29,065 --> 00:30:33,832
Not all of them. Look.
What's out that window?
521
00:30:34,572 --> 00:30:35,697
Agent Avery,
522
00:30:35,739 --> 00:30:37,707
if you don't mind me
rejoining this investigation,
523
00:30:37,741 --> 00:30:39,265
I suggest we take this party next door.
524
00:30:39,776 --> 00:30:41,004
Zoom in.
525
00:30:43,346 --> 00:30:46,679
What are those, buildings?
- Bridge towers.
526
00:30:47,484 --> 00:30:50,852
Call up all the bridges in the city
and see if our partial view fits.
527
00:30:53,356 --> 00:30:55,256
Ah, the Whitestone.
528
00:30:55,291 --> 00:30:56,815
It means we're looking south and east.
529
00:30:56,860 --> 00:30:59,624
But we still need another coordinate
to find him on the axis.
530
00:30:59,663 --> 00:31:03,030
Play the audio again,
but this time without the voices.
531
00:31:04,935 --> 00:31:06,835
And get rid of all the traffic as well.
532
00:31:09,572 --> 00:31:12,564
That's a subway.
And not just any subway.
533
00:31:12,609 --> 00:31:16,010
- Those are elevated tracks.
- I'll pull up the subway map,
534
00:31:16,046 --> 00:31:19,778
see where it intersects
with the approximate line of sight.
535
00:31:24,220 --> 00:31:29,180
That's the IRT Pelham Line.
What's the stop that intersects?
536
00:31:32,730 --> 00:31:34,630
Zerega Avenue station.
537
00:31:44,941 --> 00:31:48,070
Got it. 1756, 48th Avenue, the Bronx.
538
00:31:48,112 --> 00:31:50,808
Have a hostage-rescue team
meet us there.
539
00:31:54,418 --> 00:31:55,885
Standing by.
540
00:31:56,454 --> 00:31:59,115
This is the place.
Building's supposed to be abandoned.
541
00:31:59,222 --> 00:32:00,849
Thermal confirms a hot spot
on the fourth floor.
542
00:32:00,890 --> 00:32:02,188
That's where he's holding her.
543
00:32:02,226 --> 00:32:04,023
The team's going to enter on
his blind side of the building.
544
00:32:04,061 --> 00:32:05,585
This is wrong.
545
00:32:06,097 --> 00:32:07,997
- What's wrong?
- I feel like Princess Leia
546
00:32:08,032 --> 00:32:10,364
when the Millennium Falcon
escaped the Death Star. It's too easy.
547
00:32:10,401 --> 00:32:11,527
What do you mean, too easy?
548
00:32:11,569 --> 00:32:13,559
I mean, the sneak peek out the window,
549
00:32:13,603 --> 00:32:15,697
waiting to record the message
just as the train was going by.
550
00:32:15,740 --> 00:32:17,401
He led us here.
You remember how perfect
551
00:32:17,441 --> 00:32:20,376
- everything was with Conrad.
- Yeah, I got the trap memo, too.
552
00:32:20,411 --> 00:32:22,470
But that doesn't mean I'm going to
sit on my ass and do nothing.
553
00:32:22,513 --> 00:32:24,208
That's my partner up there.
554
00:32:26,517 --> 00:32:28,314
She'll be dead
the moment you breach that door.
555
00:32:28,352 --> 00:32:30,012
That's why we're not going to breach.
556
00:32:30,053 --> 00:32:32,614
The hostage exchange
goes down at midnight.
557
00:32:32,656 --> 00:32:34,146
That means he has to
move her before then.
558
00:32:34,191 --> 00:32:36,386
We move in quietly, take position.
559
00:32:36,427 --> 00:32:38,054
And then as soon as Dunn comes out...
560
00:32:38,095 --> 00:32:41,155
I'll put him down
like the rabid dog he is.
561
00:32:47,805 --> 00:32:49,432
Making entry, south side.
562
00:33:24,175 --> 00:33:26,735
I don't know how he's doing it,
but he's not up there.
563
00:33:26,777 --> 00:33:28,177
And what are you basing that on?
564
00:33:28,213 --> 00:33:30,681
I don't know how I know, I just...
565
00:33:31,116 --> 00:33:32,743
You just what?
566
00:33:33,318 --> 00:33:36,309
Castle, you and I have known
each other long enough for me to know
567
00:33:36,353 --> 00:33:37,980
that sometimes your silly theories
are right,
568
00:33:38,022 --> 00:33:40,616
so if you have a reason to believe
that he's not up there,
569
00:33:40,658 --> 00:33:43,025
then you need to tell me why, now.
570
00:33:43,061 --> 00:33:47,725
Just because...
It's not how I would write it.
571
00:33:49,401 --> 00:33:51,265
What happens in your version?
572
00:33:51,302 --> 00:33:53,998
He lets us think we've found him
to lure us here.
573
00:33:54,038 --> 00:33:57,338
Lets the FBI converge on the building,
only he's not in there.
574
00:33:57,375 --> 00:33:59,843
- Where is he?
- Nearby watching.
575
00:33:59,878 --> 00:34:03,075
Watching it all unfold.
He's got something planned.
576
00:34:03,114 --> 00:34:04,638
If it were me,
577
00:34:04,950 --> 00:34:08,612
I'd wait until they all got inside,
got settled into position,
578
00:34:09,720 --> 00:34:11,712
and then I'd blow the building.
579
00:34:12,924 --> 00:34:15,757
- Where is he watching from?
- I don't know.
580
00:34:17,295 --> 00:34:18,785
He wants to show he's smarter than us,
581
00:34:18,830 --> 00:34:22,163
so he'll be somewhere close by
and out of the way.
582
00:34:22,901 --> 00:34:27,804
Castle, if it were you,
where would you be watching from?
583
00:34:28,707 --> 00:34:31,437
I wouldn't be watching
from this building where they are,
584
00:34:31,476 --> 00:34:33,569
I'd be watching from here.
585
00:34:37,349 --> 00:34:38,611
Come on.
586
00:34:50,128 --> 00:34:51,425
Here.
587
00:34:51,463 --> 00:34:53,158
Want me to hold it
while you tie your shoe?
588
00:34:53,198 --> 00:34:55,962
No, I want you to take it. Just in case.
589
00:35:00,538 --> 00:35:02,369
All right, let's go.
590
00:35:16,421 --> 00:35:19,788
I'm almost sad to see it
come to an end, Agent Shaw.
591
00:35:19,824 --> 00:35:24,057
You know, I'd expected more from you.
I'd heard such great things...
592
00:35:24,664 --> 00:35:27,497
Castle, he's there.
I'm gonna draw him away.
593
00:35:27,533 --> 00:35:30,399
You free Agent Shaw
and get some help.
594
00:35:30,435 --> 00:35:35,634
Castle, you're my only backup.
Okay, go.
595
00:35:42,782 --> 00:35:45,306
I thought it was me you were after.
596
00:35:50,021 --> 00:35:53,856
Nikki, you came.
597
00:35:56,929 --> 00:36:00,126
Put your hands up, Dunn,
or I will take you down.
598
00:36:07,472 --> 00:36:11,739
I've got a better idea, Nikki.
Why don't you put your gun down,
599
00:36:12,445 --> 00:36:15,812
or I'll detonate the 19 pounds
of cyclonite that I have in the building
600
00:36:15,848 --> 00:36:21,046
across the street, turning Agent Avery
and his entry team into mist.
601
00:36:21,453 --> 00:36:25,185
If you shoot me, Nikki,
it might cause my body to tense up
602
00:36:25,224 --> 00:36:27,021
and push the button.
603
00:36:27,193 --> 00:36:29,923
Do you really want to take that chance?
604
00:36:30,262 --> 00:36:32,822
They're not in the building anymore.
605
00:36:33,232 --> 00:36:36,132
I only sent them in there
to throw you off.
606
00:36:38,371 --> 00:36:39,861
You're lying.
607
00:36:40,906 --> 00:36:44,967
Why would they be in there,
if I knew that you were in here?
608
00:36:45,911 --> 00:36:50,974
Face it, Dunn, I beat you.
Nikki Heat won.
609
00:36:52,451 --> 00:36:53,509
No.
610
00:36:54,887 --> 00:36:56,320
- No!
- No!
611
00:37:09,402 --> 00:37:11,734
- Where's my people?
- Across the street,
612
00:37:11,771 --> 00:37:15,172
- sitting on 19 pounds of cyclonite.
- She was bluffing?
613
00:37:15,207 --> 00:37:16,970
- She was profiling.
- Go help her.
614
00:37:17,009 --> 00:37:19,910
He could flank her. Go, go! I've got this.
615
00:37:30,656 --> 00:37:32,988
Dunn, give it up.
616
00:37:38,665 --> 00:37:40,097
Nobody has to die.
617
00:38:09,963 --> 00:38:13,830
That's how all my stories end.
With someone else dead.
618
00:38:13,866 --> 00:38:14,924
No!
619
00:38:20,073 --> 00:38:22,371
I believe this is your collar.
620
00:38:25,946 --> 00:38:29,210
- This isn't over, Heat.
- It's not Heat.
621
00:38:29,915 --> 00:38:31,405
It's Beckett.
622
00:38:32,318 --> 00:38:36,722
You have the right to remain silent,
so shut the hell up.
623
00:38:41,294 --> 00:38:43,660
- Thank you.
- Ditto.
624
00:38:47,300 --> 00:38:49,234
Hell of a shot, Castle.
625
00:38:50,570 --> 00:38:52,538
I was aiming for his head.
626
00:38:59,646 --> 00:39:01,978
Hey, we're thinking maybe
you could talk to Montgomery about
627
00:39:02,015 --> 00:39:03,846
finding some room in the budget
for those smart boards.
628
00:39:03,884 --> 00:39:07,047
Sure. While they're at it, maybe they
can buy us Batmobiles.
629
00:39:07,087 --> 00:39:08,577
- That'd be cool.
Yeah.
630
00:39:08,622 --> 00:39:11,819
- Our murder boards are just fine.
- For a caveman.
631
00:39:14,628 --> 00:39:17,188
- Agent Shaw.
- I was just writing you a note.
632
00:39:17,230 --> 00:39:19,460
Dunn is being transported
to The Tombs,
633
00:39:19,499 --> 00:39:22,400
where he'll enjoy his stay
in the Intensive Management Unit
634
00:39:22,435 --> 00:39:24,335
with the state's
most dangerous criminals.
635
00:39:24,371 --> 00:39:28,307
Well, he's getting his 15 minutes.
It's what he wanted this whole time.
636
00:39:28,341 --> 00:39:30,572
Yeah, but it'll be on our terms.
637
00:39:32,647 --> 00:39:35,774
I want you to know that I learned a lot
from you on this one.
638
00:39:35,815 --> 00:39:38,045
You did most of the heavy lifting.
639
00:39:38,084 --> 00:39:39,984
Honestly, the thing
that impressed me most
640
00:39:40,020 --> 00:39:42,045
is that you came in with Castle.
641
00:39:42,088 --> 00:39:45,024
You know,
some people would call that foolish.
642
00:39:45,059 --> 00:39:47,186
You made a tough decision
on your feet,
643
00:39:47,228 --> 00:39:50,458
used the resources at hand.
I'd say that's heroic
644
00:39:50,797 --> 00:39:52,492
and somewhat poetic.
645
00:39:52,532 --> 00:39:55,968
In the end,
Dunn did actually face Nikki Heat.
646
00:39:56,002 --> 00:39:59,632
She is, after all, part you, part Castle.
647
00:40:02,343 --> 00:40:04,208
He cares about you, Kate.
648
00:40:04,245 --> 00:40:09,113
You may not see it,
you may not be ready to, but he does.
649
00:40:09,983 --> 00:40:14,011
Yeah, well, the situation with Castle
is complicated.
650
00:40:14,822 --> 00:40:15,880
Ah.
651
00:40:15,923 --> 00:40:17,151
Ladies.
652
00:40:18,459 --> 00:40:22,622
Detective Beckett, it's been a pleasure.
653
00:40:22,662 --> 00:40:24,493
We'll see you around.
654
00:40:25,065 --> 00:40:27,431
Castle, thank you for your help.
655
00:40:27,734 --> 00:40:31,171
You are a valuable asset
to Detective Beckett's team.
656
00:40:31,806 --> 00:40:33,068
It would be great if you would call her
657
00:40:33,107 --> 00:40:35,575
and remind her of that
from time to time.
658
00:40:41,548 --> 00:40:43,210
Wow. What's this?
659
00:40:43,451 --> 00:40:44,713
Open it.
660
00:40:50,858 --> 00:40:54,554
My father's watch. Thank you.
661
00:40:55,829 --> 00:40:57,057
You're welcome.
662
00:40:57,097 --> 00:41:00,067
I found it in the wreckage, had it fixed.
663
00:41:01,269 --> 00:41:03,499
- I've got good news.
- Yeah?
664
00:41:03,537 --> 00:41:07,132
I talked to Avery about buying
one of those incredible Fed-mobiles.
665
00:41:07,174 --> 00:41:10,302
Without the weapons, of course, but
I could stock it with my own gadgets.
666
00:41:10,344 --> 00:41:12,608
I could get "Writer" airbrushed across
the back window.
667
00:41:12,647 --> 00:41:15,013
Ryan and Esposito
have a better car than you do.
668
00:41:15,049 --> 00:41:17,643
I'm just... I'm embarrassed to have
criminals in the back of that thing.
669
00:41:17,685 --> 00:41:18,777
I don't know about your seat,
670
00:41:18,819 --> 00:41:20,081
but mine's got a spring
that hits me in the...
671
00:41:24,058 --> 00:41:26,493
Richard, darling, you're just in time.
I made dinner.
672
00:41:26,528 --> 00:41:28,893
Mother, what are you doing here?
673
00:41:28,929 --> 00:41:33,229
We're eating. You know, something
families do, couple of times a day.
674
00:41:33,267 --> 00:41:34,757
- Hi, Dad.
- Hi.
675
00:41:35,236 --> 00:41:37,067
So, what about Chet?
676
00:41:37,505 --> 00:41:40,805
Darling, I never said I was going to be
chained to the man's side.
677
00:41:40,842 --> 00:41:44,470
Besides, Martha Rodgers
is a woman of mystery.
678
00:41:44,945 --> 00:41:49,780
And in order to maintain that, I'm going
to have to divide my time accordingly.
679
00:41:50,017 --> 00:41:52,747
- Like having dual citizenship.
- Exactly.
680
00:41:53,521 --> 00:41:55,922
Besides, it's better
for my relationship with Chet.
681
00:41:55,957 --> 00:42:01,758
So, if I have to eat a few meals a week
and do all of my laundry here,
682
00:42:02,496 --> 00:42:04,930
I'll just have to make that work.
683
00:42:05,299 --> 00:42:07,733
- I think that sounds like a fine plan.
- Yes!
684
00:42:07,768 --> 00:42:10,169
Well, I hope you'll be comfortable
sleeping in the home theater chairs
685
00:42:10,205 --> 00:42:13,538
I'm having delivered to your room.
They do recline.
686
00:42:14,142 --> 00:42:15,166
Ah...
