00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:18,000
Ripped By mstoll
2
00:00:24,824 --> 00:00:27,588
Wait! Please! We can talk about this.
3
00:00:29,295 --> 00:00:31,422
No. No! No!
4
00:00:32,599 --> 00:00:36,399
"A crime is a wrong arising
from the violation of a public duty.
5
00:00:36,469 --> 00:00:39,961
"A tort is a wrong arising
from the violation of a private duty."
6
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:41,064
Yes!
7
00:00:41,141 --> 00:00:44,110
Okay. I think my brain
is crammed to the limit.
8
00:00:44,177 --> 00:00:46,668
Well, I think you and your brain
are more than ready.
9
00:00:46,746 --> 00:00:49,112
Hey, Alexis.
Don't you have a mid-term this morning?
10
00:00:49,182 --> 00:00:50,513
I'm leaving now.
11
00:00:50,617 --> 00:00:53,882
Beckett was just giving me
a last-minute review.
12
00:00:53,953 --> 00:00:54,977
- Bye-bye.
- Bye.
13
00:00:55,055 --> 00:00:56,579
- Thanks for your help.
- Yeah.
14
00:00:56,656 --> 00:00:58,385
Bye. Good luck.
15
00:01:01,027 --> 00:01:02,551
You know, she's got an amazing brain.
16
00:01:02,629 --> 00:01:05,291
I mean, if she wanted to,
she'd make an incredible lawyer.
17
00:01:05,365 --> 00:01:07,993
Yeah, like I don't lose
enough arguments to her already.
18
00:01:09,235 --> 00:01:11,362
What about you? You ever regret it?
Not getting your law degree?
19
00:01:12,872 --> 00:01:15,340
Um, I'd rather take criminals down
than send them up.
20
00:01:15,408 --> 00:01:16,432
- Really?
- Mmm-hmm.
21
00:01:16,509 --> 00:01:19,069
Because with your mind, I bet
you could have made Chief Justice.
22
00:01:19,145 --> 00:01:20,635
You have all the qualifications.
23
00:01:20,713 --> 00:01:25,707
You're smart, you are intimidating,
and you look very, very good in a robe.
24
00:01:25,852 --> 00:01:27,285
- Wow. Really?
- Mmm.
25
00:01:27,353 --> 00:01:29,412
Care to take a 10-minute recess
in my chambers?
26
00:01:29,489 --> 00:01:31,423
If it please the court, I would.
27
00:01:31,825 --> 00:01:33,349
Oh.
28
00:01:33,593 --> 00:01:35,185
I think we're gonna need a continuance.
29
00:01:35,261 --> 00:01:36,285
Uh, objection.
30
00:01:36,362 --> 00:01:37,488
Overruled. Beckett.
31
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:41,931
Ryan, give it to me.
32
00:01:42,268 --> 00:01:43,530
Sorry, Castle. I'm not telling.
33
00:01:43,603 --> 00:01:44,695
Well, that's too bad, I already know.
34
00:01:44,771 --> 00:01:47,740
It's John Legend,
All Of Me Cuffed All Of You.
35
00:01:47,807 --> 00:01:49,832
- No.
- Wait a minute,
36
00:01:49,909 --> 00:01:52,207
are you guys talking about
the Policemen's Benevolent fundraiser?
37
00:01:52,278 --> 00:01:53,711
Yeah, the talent competition
is on Friday night,
38
00:01:53,780 --> 00:01:55,714
but he won't tell me
what he and Espo are doing.
39
00:01:55,782 --> 00:01:58,012
So, how are you guys even gonna top
40
00:01:58,084 --> 00:02:00,552
the Dirty Dancing lift scene
from last year?
41
00:02:00,620 --> 00:02:03,714
Ah. Crime of Our Lives.
Classic Espo-Ryan.
42
00:02:03,790 --> 00:02:06,224
Now rest assured, as two-time champs,
43
00:02:06,292 --> 00:02:08,954
whatever we do
is gonna blow the rest of the field away.
44
00:02:09,028 --> 00:02:11,360
That's only because not being a cop
I'm ineligible.
45
00:02:11,431 --> 00:02:13,831
But if Beckett and I were competing,
you'd be out of a trophy.
46
00:02:13,900 --> 00:02:15,663
Oh, yeah. We would so take you down.
47
00:02:15,735 --> 00:02:17,965
Well, back in reality,
48
00:02:18,037 --> 00:02:21,404
our John Doe was found this morning
by sanitation workers.
49
00:02:21,474 --> 00:02:22,839
No phone, no wallet.
50
00:02:22,909 --> 00:02:23,898
Cause?
51
00:02:23,977 --> 00:02:25,740
Blunt-force trauma
to the back of the head.
52
00:02:25,812 --> 00:02:27,746
Probably a pipe or a baseball bat.
53
00:02:27,814 --> 00:02:29,338
Based on lividity,
54
00:02:29,415 --> 00:02:32,407
I'd say it happened between
12:00 and 2:00 a.m. This morning.
55
00:02:32,485 --> 00:02:33,543
Any witnesses?
56
00:02:33,620 --> 00:02:35,588
A guy who lives nearby
heard screams around 1:00 a.m.
57
00:02:35,655 --> 00:02:37,919
He looked out of his window,
he saw a car speeding away.
58
00:02:38,791 --> 00:02:39,849
He get a make and model?
59
00:02:39,926 --> 00:02:43,225
Just tail lights.
But he said it looked like a sports car.
60
00:02:43,296 --> 00:02:45,696
Ryan and I are gonna keep looking
for witnesses and street cam footage,
61
00:02:45,765 --> 00:02:48,165
but it's an industrial area,
so coverage is spotty.
62
00:02:48,234 --> 00:02:49,394
Wait a minute. I think I know this guy.
63
00:02:49,469 --> 00:02:52,529
He's the personal injury attorney on TV
who has the late-night ads.
64
00:02:52,605 --> 00:02:54,300
Oh, my God. You're right! That's, uh...
65
00:02:54,908 --> 00:02:56,273
The Pitbull.
66
00:02:56,342 --> 00:02:57,536
The Pitbull?
67
00:02:57,610 --> 00:02:59,942
Yeah. Richie "The Pitbull" Falco.
68
00:03:00,013 --> 00:03:01,241
Come on, man, you've seen the ads.
69
00:03:01,314 --> 00:03:02,872
A guy's head on a dog's body.
70
00:03:02,949 --> 00:03:05,611
"You been in an accident?
Take the law by the tail."
71
00:03:05,685 --> 00:03:08,518
"And get a bite
at the settlement you deserve!"
72
00:03:08,588 --> 00:03:09,577
"I'll make the law
73
00:03:09,656 --> 00:03:10,884
- "your bitch."
- "Your bitch!"
74
00:03:13,927 --> 00:03:15,451
Why am I the only one
who's never seen this commercial?
75
00:03:15,528 --> 00:03:16,790
Because it comes on
late at night.
76
00:03:16,863 --> 00:03:17,955
And when you're not moonlighting,
77
00:03:18,031 --> 00:03:19,555
your honeymilk-sipping ass
is in bed by 10:00.
78
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,194
Why would anyone
wanna kill the Pitbull?
79
00:03:22,835 --> 00:03:24,860
Maybe CSU will get lucky
and find the murder weapon.
80
00:03:24,938 --> 00:03:27,372
Meanwhile let's get the body to
the morgue and see what it can tell us.
81
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:28,964
Castle, you and I
should go to Pitbull's office,
82
00:03:29,042 --> 00:03:31,010
see what we can find there.
83
00:03:31,444 --> 00:03:32,502
Been in an accident?
84
00:03:32,579 --> 00:03:35,104
Take the law by the tail and get a bite
at the settlement you deserve.
85
00:03:35,181 --> 00:03:36,773
I'll fight for you, the little guy.
86
00:03:36,849 --> 00:03:39,010
Because Pitbulls and underdogs
stick together.
87
00:03:39,085 --> 00:03:41,747
Remember, I'll make the law your bitch!
88
00:03:47,594 --> 00:03:51,189
Well, Richie's clients may be suffering,
but his business sure wasn't.
89
00:03:51,264 --> 00:03:53,755
Yeah, well, there's always gonna be
people looking for a quick settlement
90
00:03:53,833 --> 00:03:56,427
and plenty of opportunistic
bottom-feeders like Richie
91
00:03:56,502 --> 00:03:58,197
ready to help them cash in.
92
00:03:58,271 --> 00:04:00,205
Bet half these people are faking.
93
00:04:00,974 --> 00:04:02,271
- See that guy over there?
- Mmm-hmm.
94
00:04:02,342 --> 00:04:03,400
Watch this.
95
00:04:03,476 --> 00:04:06,172
Excuse me, sir?
Could you throw this away for me?
96
00:04:08,147 --> 00:04:09,307
Sorry, my aim is a little...
97
00:04:10,550 --> 00:04:12,142
Maybe... He's probably legit.
98
00:04:13,019 --> 00:04:16,853
Sorry for the wait, folks.
I'm sure Pitbull will be here any minute.
99
00:04:19,626 --> 00:04:22,459
The way he's been acting
the last few days,
100
00:04:23,963 --> 00:04:25,123
I knew
something was wrong.
101
00:04:25,198 --> 00:04:26,426
How was he acting?
102
00:04:26,499 --> 00:04:28,091
Anxious, paranoid.
103
00:04:28,167 --> 00:04:30,135
Before he'd leave the office,
he'd look out the window.
104
00:04:30,203 --> 00:04:32,763
It's like he thought
someone might be watching him.
105
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,832
And yesterday morning, he called
to say that he wasn't coming in at all.
106
00:04:37,076 --> 00:04:38,134
Was that unusual?
107
00:04:38,211 --> 00:04:41,738
He never missed a day
in the three years I worked for him.
108
00:04:42,882 --> 00:04:44,247
Do you know what was going on?
109
00:04:44,317 --> 00:04:45,341
He wouldn't talk about it.
110
00:04:45,418 --> 00:04:47,147
I asked
if it had something to do
111
00:04:47,220 --> 00:04:48,551
with one of the cases, and he...
112
00:04:50,590 --> 00:04:55,755
He said no, and he, uh, told me not to
worry, and that it would all be over soon.
113
00:04:57,063 --> 00:05:00,863
Was he having problems with anyone?
Uh, clients, a girlfriend?
114
00:05:00,933 --> 00:05:03,060
He didn't have a girlfriend.
115
00:05:04,570 --> 00:05:05,628
I kept hoping, but...
116
00:05:05,705 --> 00:05:07,570
Look, I...
117
00:05:09,709 --> 00:05:11,006
I know what you guys are thinking.
118
00:05:11,077 --> 00:05:13,807
Personal injury lawyers
are gutter rats, right?
119
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,316
But Richie was different.
He really cared.
120
00:05:17,383 --> 00:05:19,647
He thought the law was there
to protect everyone
121
00:05:19,719 --> 00:05:21,550
and not just corporations
who could afford it.
122
00:05:21,621 --> 00:05:24,146
And his clients, they loved him for it.
123
00:05:24,223 --> 00:05:25,986
And his adversaries?
124
00:05:26,059 --> 00:05:29,051
Sure, people he sued
got pissed sometimes.
125
00:05:29,128 --> 00:05:30,686
I mean, he won some big settlements.
126
00:05:30,763 --> 00:05:34,199
But nothing I can imagine
anyone killing for.
127
00:05:34,267 --> 00:05:36,360
Miss Klein, I need a list
of all of his active cases,
128
00:05:36,436 --> 00:05:38,028
along with anyone that
he's won a judgment against
129
00:05:38,104 --> 00:05:39,401
over the last few years.
130
00:05:39,472 --> 00:05:40,496
Of course.
131
00:05:41,140 --> 00:05:43,574
So I understand that
Mr. Falco lived in Brooklyn.
132
00:05:43,643 --> 00:05:45,304
Yeah. Park Slope.
133
00:05:45,812 --> 00:05:47,837
You know, his body was found
in Hamilton Heights.
134
00:05:47,914 --> 00:05:50,075
Do you have any idea
what he was doing up there last night?
135
00:05:50,583 --> 00:05:52,915
Saint Simon's is up there.
136
00:05:52,985 --> 00:05:54,179
- The hospital?
- Yeah.
137
00:05:54,253 --> 00:05:57,745
Sometimes he would do the rounds
at emergency rooms
138
00:05:57,824 --> 00:06:00,019
to see if anyone needed his services.
139
00:06:01,961 --> 00:06:04,156
Got your text.
You have something for us?
140
00:06:04,230 --> 00:06:07,393
Yeah. I know what your victim
was doing before he died.
141
00:06:07,467 --> 00:06:08,764
- What?
- Uh-uh.
142
00:06:08,835 --> 00:06:09,859
You first.
143
00:06:12,672 --> 00:06:15,402
Oh. I get it. She wants us
to tell her about our routine.
144
00:06:15,541 --> 00:06:16,565
Ah.
145
00:06:16,642 --> 00:06:18,200
You know that
we cannot be giving that away, girl.
146
00:06:18,277 --> 00:06:21,440
You are gonna have to buy a ticket,
just like everyone else.
147
00:06:22,615 --> 00:06:23,741
Now, what've you got?
148
00:06:24,250 --> 00:06:28,118
Fine. Pitbull spent some time
in the countryside.
149
00:06:28,187 --> 00:06:32,089
You see this sticky yellow powder
on Richie's pant leg, about ankle high?
150
00:06:32,158 --> 00:06:35,753
Pollen from the Tussilago flower,
also known as coltsfoot.
151
00:06:35,828 --> 00:06:38,922
It's not found in the city
so it didn't happen here.
152
00:06:38,998 --> 00:06:40,556
But there's something else,
153
00:06:40,633 --> 00:06:43,761
something a lot less fun
than frolicking in the flowers.
154
00:06:46,606 --> 00:06:48,164
Those are Taser marks.
155
00:06:50,143 --> 00:06:51,269
He was tortured?
156
00:06:51,344 --> 00:06:53,244
Yeah, Lanie says
the injuries he sustained
157
00:06:53,312 --> 00:06:54,472
were within an hour of his death.
158
00:06:54,547 --> 00:06:56,879
So either the killer
wanted something from him,
159
00:06:56,949 --> 00:06:58,211
something Pitbull didn't wanna give up...
160
00:06:58,284 --> 00:06:59,808
Or the killer wanted him to suffer.
161
00:06:59,886 --> 00:07:01,615
This might have something to do
with one of his old cases.
162
00:07:01,687 --> 00:07:04,315
Yeah, but nothing jumped out
from his client list.
163
00:07:04,390 --> 00:07:07,882
It's all slip-and-falls, workman's comp,
insurance claims,
164
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,191
nothing that would explain torture
or a trip outside of the city.
165
00:07:11,264 --> 00:07:12,697
So where did he go?
166
00:07:13,366 --> 00:07:15,129
Mr. Castle, a word?
167
00:07:15,201 --> 00:07:17,499
Of course.
168
00:07:17,570 --> 00:07:21,097
As you know, the PBA
talent competition is this Friday.
169
00:07:21,174 --> 00:07:24,405
And every year
we line up a celebrity to perform.
170
00:07:24,477 --> 00:07:26,911
Yeah, to help boost ticket sales.
Isn't Kimmel doing it this year?
171
00:07:26,979 --> 00:07:27,968
He was supposed to,
172
00:07:28,047 --> 00:07:30,072
but due to a last-second conflict,
he just dropped out...
173
00:07:30,149 --> 00:07:31,138
What?
174
00:07:31,217 --> 00:07:33,276
...and I've been told
we need a replacement celebrity.
175
00:07:37,723 --> 00:07:38,917
I've been asked to ask you.
176
00:07:40,660 --> 00:07:42,150
You want me to perform?
177
00:07:42,228 --> 00:07:46,028
It would earn us both some
much needed goodwill down at 1 PP.
178
00:07:46,098 --> 00:07:47,190
But what about ticket sales?
179
00:07:47,900 --> 00:07:49,424
Beckett and I would be happy to.
180
00:07:49,502 --> 00:07:50,764
Wait, what?
181
00:07:50,837 --> 00:07:51,929
On one condition.
182
00:07:52,605 --> 00:07:54,596
Even though I'm not a cop,
we compete for the trophy.
183
00:07:54,674 --> 00:07:55,663
Done.
184
00:07:59,812 --> 00:08:03,270
Oh, Castle. You really don't think
you have a shot at winning that trophy.
185
00:08:03,349 --> 00:08:04,816
Oh, I think I have more than just a shot.
186
00:08:06,853 --> 00:08:07,842
Castle.
187
00:08:08,154 --> 00:08:11,749
You do understand that me and Ryan
have been rehearsing for months.
188
00:08:11,824 --> 00:08:14,588
Well, what Beckett and I have
cannot be rehearsed.
189
00:08:14,660 --> 00:08:15,684
It's chemistry.
190
00:08:15,761 --> 00:08:18,924
The intuitive bond, each person
knowing what the other is thinking.
191
00:08:18,998 --> 00:08:20,932
Castle, can we talk for a second
over there?
192
00:08:22,668 --> 00:08:24,101
I knew she was gonna say that.
193
00:08:24,504 --> 00:08:25,493
Mmm.
194
00:08:28,274 --> 00:08:31,835
Don't you think you should have asked
me before signing me up for this?
195
00:08:31,911 --> 00:08:32,969
I thought you were on board.
196
00:08:33,045 --> 00:08:35,172
Uh, you were trash-talking Ryan
about it before.
197
00:08:35,248 --> 00:08:36,340
Yeah, that's when I thought
198
00:08:36,415 --> 00:08:38,315
that there was no chance in hell
that we would actually do it.
199
00:08:38,384 --> 00:08:40,215
Oh, relax. We'll just do our routine.
200
00:08:40,887 --> 00:08:42,115
We don't have a routine.
201
00:08:42,188 --> 00:08:45,157
Come on! That thing in the shower?
That is delightful.
202
00:08:45,224 --> 00:08:46,691
No, that's not a routine.
203
00:08:46,759 --> 00:08:50,286
That's two naked people singing when
there's no one around to see or hear it.
204
00:08:50,363 --> 00:08:53,526
So we'll add some dance steps
and clothes. It's can't-miss.
205
00:08:54,267 --> 00:08:55,291
Uh, guys?
206
00:08:55,368 --> 00:08:58,064
Give 'em a second, bro.
They're rehearsing their chemistry.
207
00:08:58,671 --> 00:09:00,195
Ryan, you got something?
208
00:09:00,273 --> 00:09:03,401
Yeah. Turns out that Richie
was at Saint Simon's last night,
209
00:09:03,476 --> 00:09:05,307
and he was not alone.
210
00:09:06,779 --> 00:09:10,374
All right, so here is the parking lot
behind Saint Simon's.
211
00:09:10,816 --> 00:09:11,874
There's Richie.
212
00:09:13,286 --> 00:09:14,275
Now watch this.
213
00:09:16,088 --> 00:09:18,579
It's a sports car. Like the one
seen fleeing the crime scene.
214
00:09:18,958 --> 00:09:23,986
Yeah, and apparently the driver
had some kind of beef with Pitbull.
215
00:09:24,797 --> 00:09:27,231
He shoves him in the car and drives off.
216
00:09:27,733 --> 00:09:28,893
Can we make out the plate?
217
00:09:28,968 --> 00:09:33,928
Yeah, already ran it.
It is registered to this guy, Derek Bolt.
218
00:09:34,740 --> 00:09:36,571
Derek "Lightning" Bolt?
The ex-NFL running back?
219
00:09:37,143 --> 00:09:40,374
What's a former MVP doing
with our ambulance-chasing Pitbull?
220
00:09:40,446 --> 00:09:42,380
Nothing good.
Check out the time-stamp.
221
00:09:42,448 --> 00:09:45,212
11:00 p.m.
Just hours before Richie was killed.
222
00:09:45,284 --> 00:09:48,776
Leaving enough time
for him to be tortured first.
223
00:09:52,825 --> 00:09:53,849
There he is.
224
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:55,052
Derek Bolt?
225
00:09:56,028 --> 00:09:57,518
We'd like a word.
226
00:09:57,597 --> 00:09:58,655
Hey!
227
00:10:07,306 --> 00:10:08,603
Aw, man! Get off me, man!
228
00:10:08,674 --> 00:10:11,040
Guess what, Bolt? You just got benched.
229
00:10:21,654 --> 00:10:22,746
Finally.
230
00:10:22,822 --> 00:10:24,414
Is someone gonna explain to me
what I'm doing in here?
231
00:10:24,490 --> 00:10:27,789
So I guess you running away from us
was, what, exercise, Derek?
232
00:10:27,860 --> 00:10:28,986
Hey, I didn't know you were cops.
233
00:10:29,962 --> 00:10:31,259
Look, I got some financial troubles,
all right?
234
00:10:31,330 --> 00:10:32,888
And you two
looked like collection agents,
235
00:10:32,965 --> 00:10:34,455
so my instincts kicked in.
236
00:10:34,533 --> 00:10:35,864
You can take Lightning out of the NFL,
237
00:10:35,935 --> 00:10:38,403
but you can't take the NFL
out of Lightning, you know?
238
00:10:38,471 --> 00:10:40,405
We know all about
your financial troubles, Derek.
239
00:10:40,473 --> 00:10:43,101
Yeah, we were just reading
how you got hit with a lawsuit last year
240
00:10:43,175 --> 00:10:45,006
after you busted up some guy
outside of a club.
241
00:10:45,077 --> 00:10:47,068
Hell, yeah. He dented the Bolt-mobile.
242
00:10:47,146 --> 00:10:49,171
Look, I lost my head, all right?
243
00:10:49,248 --> 00:10:52,115
But I've left him alone since.
Lightning don't strike twice.
244
00:10:52,184 --> 00:10:55,119
Except you weren't so forgiving
of his lawyer, were you?
245
00:10:56,255 --> 00:10:58,246
Pitbull?
What's he got to do with any of this?
246
00:10:58,324 --> 00:11:02,260
He won a big settlement against you
last year and sent you into bankruptcy.
247
00:11:02,361 --> 00:11:03,658
So?
248
00:11:03,729 --> 00:11:05,697
So, Pitbull's dead, Derek.
249
00:11:06,499 --> 00:11:08,433
- What?
- And the last time he was seen,
250
00:11:08,534 --> 00:11:12,334
he was being shoved into
your Bolt-mobile at 11:00 p.m.
251
00:11:12,405 --> 00:11:13,963
Hey, hey, that ain't what it looks like.
252
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:15,632
Really?
Because right now it looks like revenge.
253
00:11:15,808 --> 00:11:19,175
Whoa! Whoa, whoa!
I did not kill Pitbull, all right?
254
00:11:19,945 --> 00:11:22,106
Look, dawg did such a good job
against me in court,
255
00:11:22,181 --> 00:11:23,443
I wanted him on my team.
256
00:11:23,516 --> 00:11:25,279
So I went and hired his ass.
257
00:11:25,351 --> 00:11:26,841
Richie was working for you?
258
00:11:27,386 --> 00:11:29,877
Well, then why weren't you
on his client list?
259
00:11:30,723 --> 00:11:32,554
It's a paternity thing, all right?
260
00:11:32,625 --> 00:11:36,186
My old lady's just about had it with me,
so he was handling this off the books.
261
00:11:36,262 --> 00:11:40,289
Okay, but none of that explains
your little joy ride last night.
262
00:11:40,700 --> 00:11:43,533
Me and Richie were supposed
to meet up with my baby momma
263
00:11:43,602 --> 00:11:44,899
and her lawyer yesterday afternoon.
264
00:11:44,970 --> 00:11:46,801
Only Richie never showed up.
265
00:11:46,872 --> 00:11:48,806
And it made me look bad.
266
00:11:48,874 --> 00:11:51,741
So I invited him into my car
for a little conversation.
267
00:11:51,811 --> 00:11:54,609
He said he was sorry, and that
some urgent business matter came up.
268
00:11:55,114 --> 00:11:56,172
What kind of business?
269
00:11:56,248 --> 00:11:58,216
Something about settling a debt.
270
00:11:58,284 --> 00:11:59,808
He told me he'd handle my thing,
271
00:11:59,885 --> 00:12:03,048
but he wanted me to take him
to some diner for a late-night meet.
272
00:12:03,122 --> 00:12:04,521
Said someone's life depended on it.
273
00:12:06,792 --> 00:12:08,259
Guess maybe it was his.
274
00:12:09,328 --> 00:12:12,263
So the manager
at the 24-hour gym confirms
275
00:12:12,331 --> 00:12:15,698
that Derek was working out there
during Richie's time-of-death window.
276
00:12:15,768 --> 00:12:17,429
So he's not our killer.
277
00:12:17,503 --> 00:12:18,800
Which means Derek
might have been telling the truth
278
00:12:18,871 --> 00:12:20,566
about dropping Richie off at that diner.
279
00:12:20,639 --> 00:12:21,697
Yeah. I'll head over there,
280
00:12:21,774 --> 00:12:24,242
see if the wait staff remembers
Richie talking with anyone last night.
281
00:12:24,310 --> 00:12:26,369
It still doesn't explain
where he was during the day,
282
00:12:26,445 --> 00:12:28,675
why he missed work
or blew off that client meeting.
283
00:12:29,248 --> 00:12:31,113
I may know
someone we can ask.
284
00:12:33,319 --> 00:12:35,150
Espo, what happened?
285
00:12:35,221 --> 00:12:37,382
I twisted my knee
when I was tackling Lightning.
286
00:12:37,456 --> 00:12:39,390
Are you gonna be okay?
287
00:12:39,458 --> 00:12:43,189
Yeah, I'll be fine. I just, uh...
I just tweaked it. It's probably a sprain.
288
00:12:43,262 --> 00:12:46,823
That's too bad. I was looking forward
to beating you in the talent competition.
289
00:12:47,032 --> 00:12:48,021
Oh.
290
00:12:48,234 --> 00:12:49,599
You think this is gonna take me out?
291
00:12:50,069 --> 00:12:51,263
Yes. Yes, I do.
292
00:12:51,971 --> 00:12:53,598
No. It's still on.
293
00:12:53,672 --> 00:12:56,664
I mean, how?
Espo, you can barely walk.
294
00:12:56,742 --> 00:12:58,573
Yeah, and even on one leg,
295
00:12:58,644 --> 00:13:00,544
Ryan and I are still gonna
whip your sorry asses.
296
00:13:00,613 --> 00:13:02,342
In fact, how about a wager?
297
00:13:02,414 --> 00:13:04,939
Um, uh, partner, you know
maybe we should discuss...
298
00:13:05,050 --> 00:13:06,074
Uh-uh.
299
00:13:06,152 --> 00:13:10,589
If we win, then you will dedicate
your next book to "Esposito and Ryan.
300
00:13:10,656 --> 00:13:14,592
"Two guys who are funnier, handsomer
and better than me in every way."
301
00:13:17,096 --> 00:13:18,120
Oh, you're serious?
302
00:13:19,165 --> 00:13:20,996
And if Beckett and I win?
303
00:13:21,333 --> 00:13:25,099
Well, then Ryan and I
will call you "King Castle" for a month.
304
00:13:25,171 --> 00:13:27,002
Hey, Javi. I mean, it's...
305
00:13:27,506 --> 00:13:28,495
What do you say?
306
00:13:28,974 --> 00:13:30,464
Yeah, you know what?
I think Ryan's right.
307
00:13:30,543 --> 00:13:33,376
I mean, we don't need to
make a bet out of this.
308
00:13:33,445 --> 00:13:35,208
Why? Because you're chicken?
309
00:13:35,948 --> 00:13:37,882
No, because I am a grown-up.
310
00:13:37,950 --> 00:13:39,349
Yeah. A grown-up chicken.
311
00:13:42,321 --> 00:13:45,552
I will also accept "Your Royal Highness."
312
00:13:45,624 --> 00:13:47,114
You're on, gimpy!
313
00:13:47,359 --> 00:13:49,327
Ooh. That's clever.
314
00:13:49,395 --> 00:13:50,987
I work with what you give me.
315
00:13:51,063 --> 00:13:52,121
I'm gonna take you down.
316
00:13:52,198 --> 00:13:53,460
With what, your crutches?
317
00:13:53,532 --> 00:13:54,624
Can we get back to the dead guy?
318
00:13:54,700 --> 00:13:55,792
You said that you found someone
319
00:13:55,868 --> 00:13:58,564
who could tell us
why Richie missed work yesterday.
320
00:13:58,637 --> 00:14:00,628
Yes. I pulled his phone and financials.
321
00:14:00,706 --> 00:14:02,401
There were no charges
on his credit card yesterday,
322
00:14:02,474 --> 00:14:03,771
but he made a call.
323
00:14:03,843 --> 00:14:05,640
The only call he made
from his cell all day.
324
00:14:05,711 --> 00:14:06,735
To whom?
325
00:14:06,812 --> 00:14:10,043
Someone he hasn't called in years.
His ex-wife, Elise Resner.
326
00:14:10,883 --> 00:14:13,249
He said he was in trouble
and needed my help.
327
00:14:13,919 --> 00:14:15,750
Oh. What kind of trouble exactly?
328
00:14:15,821 --> 00:14:19,985
Detective, you have to understand,
I hadn't spoken to him in years.
329
00:14:20,392 --> 00:14:23,156
And then he just calls out of the blue.
330
00:14:23,229 --> 00:14:24,355
You never asked.
331
00:14:24,430 --> 00:14:25,829
I didn't wanna know.
332
00:14:25,898 --> 00:14:27,627
After everything
that happened between us,
333
00:14:27,700 --> 00:14:29,691
I knew I couldn't get involved again.
334
00:14:29,768 --> 00:14:31,599
What happened between the two of you?
335
00:14:31,670 --> 00:14:34,764
We were at the same corporate firm.
It's how we met.
336
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,901
Corporate law? How did
he end up a personal injury attorney?
337
00:14:39,345 --> 00:14:41,313
He was a superstar.
338
00:14:41,380 --> 00:14:43,439
Harvard Law Review, partner track.
339
00:14:43,515 --> 00:14:45,176
But the pressure
got to be too much for him.
340
00:14:45,251 --> 00:14:47,481
About five years back,
he self-destructed.
341
00:14:47,553 --> 00:14:51,785
Drinking, drugs,
losing all of his cases, uh, his job.
342
00:14:53,192 --> 00:14:54,386
And then finally me.
343
00:14:57,796 --> 00:14:59,024
Hey, Beckett, we got a situation.
344
00:15:01,433 --> 00:15:03,833
I came back from lunch
to find the door half open.
345
00:15:03,903 --> 00:15:07,134
The lock was broken
and, well, you can see the rest.
346
00:15:07,773 --> 00:15:09,070
Any idea what they were looking for?
347
00:15:09,141 --> 00:15:12,235
I'm still sorting through the mess,
but Richie's computer is gone.
348
00:15:12,311 --> 00:15:15,803
And there's something else.
All of his case files are missing.
349
00:15:16,315 --> 00:15:18,044
Why would anyone want Richie's files?
350
00:15:18,117 --> 00:15:19,641
This must have something to do
with one of his cases.
351
00:15:19,718 --> 00:15:21,379
A client, maybe a witness,
352
00:15:22,388 --> 00:15:24,549
someone or something
that he was looking into,
353
00:15:24,623 --> 00:15:25,749
something he was hiding even from you.
354
00:15:27,059 --> 00:15:28,583
Okay, let's canvass the building.
355
00:15:28,661 --> 00:15:30,185
See if anyone else saw something.
356
00:15:30,262 --> 00:15:33,231
And get CSU down here.
Prints, fibers, DNA, the whole thing.
357
00:15:33,299 --> 00:15:34,823
All right.
358
00:15:34,900 --> 00:15:36,197
Excuse me.
359
00:15:36,268 --> 00:15:37,257
Beckett.
360
00:15:37,336 --> 00:15:38,428
It's me.
361
00:15:38,504 --> 00:15:41,564
Do you remember that meeting that
Richie said he had in a diner last night?
362
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:42,629
Yeah.
363
00:15:42,708 --> 00:15:44,835
Well, the waitress saw the whole thing.
364
00:15:44,910 --> 00:15:48,346
Lot more like a fight. Richie got into
a shouting match with another guy.
365
00:15:48,414 --> 00:15:49,438
You get a description?
366
00:15:50,950 --> 00:15:52,383
Uh, better than that.
367
00:15:52,451 --> 00:15:54,351
The waitress knew exactly who he was.
368
00:15:54,420 --> 00:15:55,444
I'll send you a picture.
369
00:15:59,525 --> 00:16:03,188
That's Archie Bronstein.
The Savannah Hammer.
370
00:16:03,262 --> 00:16:05,890
Is there any reason that Richie
and the Hammer would be fighting?
371
00:16:05,965 --> 00:16:09,366
They were always stealing clients from
each other, only Richie was better at it.
372
00:16:09,435 --> 00:16:13,963
It got to where Hammer was
so sick of losing business to him,
373
00:16:14,039 --> 00:16:16,530
that he promised to put an end to it.
374
00:16:18,277 --> 00:16:19,938
One way or another.
375
00:16:20,012 --> 00:16:21,274
Where can we find him?
376
00:16:22,381 --> 00:16:23,439
Call me, friend.
377
00:16:23,515 --> 00:16:24,539
Whatever happened to you
378
00:16:24,616 --> 00:16:26,481
is nothing compared to
what I'm gonna do to the other guy.
379
00:16:27,653 --> 00:16:28,677
Mr. Archie Bronstein?
380
00:16:29,555 --> 00:16:30,817
The Savannah Hammer.
381
00:16:30,889 --> 00:16:32,789
No case too small, no settlement too big.
382
00:16:32,858 --> 00:16:35,156
Now what can I help you with?
Slip-and-fall?
383
00:16:35,227 --> 00:16:37,024
Work injury? Medical malpractice?
384
00:16:37,396 --> 00:16:39,523
We're here about the murder
of Richie "The Pitbull."
385
00:16:42,534 --> 00:16:44,092
Sure, I was at that diner last night.
386
00:16:44,503 --> 00:16:47,301
Well, this urgent meeting that
the two of you had, what was it about?
387
00:16:47,373 --> 00:16:48,431
I'd hardly call it a meeting.
388
00:16:48,507 --> 00:16:51,237
I went in to get some pecan pie
and I saw him sitting there.
389
00:16:51,310 --> 00:16:52,971
So the meeting wasn't planned?
390
00:16:53,045 --> 00:16:54,945
Well, maybe he was planning on
meeting somebody else.
391
00:16:55,014 --> 00:16:57,505
But when I saw him in that booth,
he was alone, and we got into it.
392
00:16:57,583 --> 00:16:58,607
About what?
393
00:16:58,684 --> 00:17:01,676
The usual. I caught him here last night
trying to poach one of my clients.
394
00:17:02,955 --> 00:17:05,116
Well, we had words here
and then again at the diner.
395
00:17:05,190 --> 00:17:08,387
So Richie was paranoid he was
being followed, disappears all day,
396
00:17:08,460 --> 00:17:10,485
says he's in trouble,
then comes here to poach a client?
397
00:17:10,562 --> 00:17:12,792
Mr. Bronstein,
was there a specific reason
398
00:17:12,865 --> 00:17:14,662
that he was interested in this client?
399
00:17:14,733 --> 00:17:17,167
'Cause he smelled an easy win.
400
00:17:17,236 --> 00:17:21,070
Poor girl gets
three pieces of flying metal in her heart
401
00:17:21,140 --> 00:17:23,108
when a scrap truck plows into her car.
402
00:17:23,175 --> 00:17:25,234
Now that is a slam-dunk settlement.
403
00:17:25,310 --> 00:17:28,404
So you bet when I saw Richie
at that diner, we got loud.
404
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,311
Until the waitress
told us to take it outside,
405
00:17:30,382 --> 00:17:33,146
where I advised him
to steer clear of my clients.
406
00:17:33,919 --> 00:17:35,181
And what time was that?
407
00:17:35,254 --> 00:17:36,812
11:45 maybe.
408
00:17:36,889 --> 00:17:41,258
Look, I didn't kill him,
I didn't steal those files,
409
00:17:41,326 --> 00:17:45,729
but it might be related
to his extracurricular activities.
410
00:17:47,199 --> 00:17:48,257
Uh, what's that mean?
411
00:17:48,333 --> 00:17:50,528
Richie liked to come off
like he was better than all of us
412
00:17:50,602 --> 00:17:54,698
with his Harvard degree
and his champion-of-the-little-guy act,
413
00:17:54,773 --> 00:17:56,866
but trust me, he was into some things.
414
00:17:57,342 --> 00:17:58,366
What kind of things?
415
00:17:58,444 --> 00:18:00,275
Bad things.
416
00:18:00,345 --> 00:18:03,746
Word on the street was there was
nothing he wouldn't do for a price.
417
00:18:04,383 --> 00:18:06,351
And I mean nothing.
418
00:18:08,754 --> 00:18:11,780
Hey. So it looks like
Hammer's not our killer.
419
00:18:11,857 --> 00:18:13,119
Apparently after he left the diner,
420
00:18:13,192 --> 00:18:16,127
he spent the rest of the night
"nailing" one of his clients.
421
00:18:16,195 --> 00:18:18,561
Anything else turn up missing
besides the files and the computer?
422
00:18:18,630 --> 00:18:21,064
No, not so far.
423
00:18:21,133 --> 00:18:22,191
Here's what I don't get.
424
00:18:22,267 --> 00:18:25,566
If all they wanted was files,
why'd they turn this place upside down?
425
00:18:25,637 --> 00:18:27,161
Must have been looking
for something else.
426
00:18:27,239 --> 00:18:28,228
Hmm.
427
00:18:28,307 --> 00:18:30,901
Detectives, you need to see this.
428
00:18:34,947 --> 00:18:38,041
We found a false panel in the wall.
Take a look.
429
00:18:45,057 --> 00:18:47,321
Rope, duct tape,
430
00:18:49,228 --> 00:18:51,059
rags, gloves,
431
00:18:52,664 --> 00:18:53,722
chloroform.
432
00:18:53,799 --> 00:18:56,233
Looks like somebody
was planning an abduction.
433
00:18:56,935 --> 00:18:59,927
Might have went past
the planning phase.
434
00:19:00,772 --> 00:19:04,765
Glow-sticks last, what,
24 to 48 hours once activated?
435
00:19:04,843 --> 00:19:06,333
And they're still glowing?
436
00:19:06,411 --> 00:19:08,902
Which means he must have used
this bag within the last two days.
437
00:19:08,981 --> 00:19:11,074
Yeah, but for what?
438
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,280
Well, I just got off with CSU.
439
00:19:16,355 --> 00:19:20,121
That rag tested positive for chloroform.
440
00:19:20,659 --> 00:19:22,388
So he must've used it
to knock someone out.
441
00:19:22,461 --> 00:19:24,861
Not very lawyerly of Mr. Pitbull.
442
00:19:24,930 --> 00:19:26,363
So wire-cutters,
443
00:19:26,431 --> 00:19:30,094
alarm schematics,
night-vision goggles and glow-sticks.
444
00:19:30,669 --> 00:19:32,694
He was breaking in somewhere.
But where?
445
00:19:32,771 --> 00:19:33,863
All right,
I'll check the blotters
446
00:19:33,939 --> 00:19:36,032
to see if there were any B and E's
in the past two days,
447
00:19:36,108 --> 00:19:37,939
see if I can link any of them
to Richie's cases.
448
00:19:38,010 --> 00:19:39,773
Yeah, and look into
missing persons reports.
449
00:19:39,845 --> 00:19:41,005
We still can't rule out an abduction.
450
00:19:41,713 --> 00:19:43,112
Yeah. Hmm.
451
00:19:43,882 --> 00:19:44,974
Check this out.
452
00:19:47,653 --> 00:19:48,984
Cities and dates.
453
00:19:49,688 --> 00:19:51,451
"January 3rd, 2009, Seattle.
454
00:19:51,523 --> 00:19:53,889
"March 18th, 2011, Tulsa..."
455
00:19:54,326 --> 00:19:57,420
Six of them, all within the last five years.
What do you think that means?
456
00:19:57,496 --> 00:19:59,259
Have Tory run these
through the database,
457
00:19:59,331 --> 00:20:00,389
see if she can find anything.
458
00:20:00,465 --> 00:20:02,296
And let's see if she can trace
where Richie was
459
00:20:02,367 --> 00:20:03,732
when he made that phone call to his ex.
460
00:20:04,169 --> 00:20:06,228
You think any of this is connected
to that girl in the hospital?
461
00:20:06,305 --> 00:20:09,399
No, that was a straight-up car accident,
nothing that speaks to any of this.
462
00:20:09,474 --> 00:20:11,567
But someone out there has to know
what Richie was up to.
463
00:20:12,077 --> 00:20:14,739
Well, maybe we should ask
Mr. Sampson.
464
00:20:14,813 --> 00:20:16,144
Who's Mr. Sampson?
465
00:20:16,215 --> 00:20:19,082
I don't know, but these are
his night vision goggles.
466
00:20:23,922 --> 00:20:25,116
Yeah, they're mine.
467
00:20:25,190 --> 00:20:27,852
How did you know the victim,
Mr. Sampson?
468
00:20:27,926 --> 00:20:29,359
Uh, I did work for Richie here and there.
469
00:20:30,262 --> 00:20:33,322
Surveillance, information gathering,
the usual P.I. Stuff.
470
00:20:33,398 --> 00:20:35,696
He came to me a couple of days ago
asking to borrow them.
471
00:20:35,767 --> 00:20:37,132
Did he say what he needed them for?
472
00:20:37,202 --> 00:20:40,365
Sometimes he would slip me
some extra cash not to ask questions.
473
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,535
Anything else you helped him with?
474
00:20:43,609 --> 00:20:46,043
Yeah, he had some questions
about alarm schematics.
475
00:20:46,111 --> 00:20:47,100
Uh, like...
476
00:20:48,113 --> 00:20:49,512
Like these?
477
00:20:50,082 --> 00:20:51,174
Yeah.
478
00:20:51,683 --> 00:20:54,049
What about chloroform, Mr. Sampson?
Did you give him that, too?
479
00:20:55,087 --> 00:20:56,611
No. He had chloroform?
480
00:20:56,688 --> 00:20:58,280
Yeah, why, what's wrong?
481
00:20:58,357 --> 00:21:01,656
When I gave him the goggles, I asked
if there was anything else he needed.
482
00:21:01,727 --> 00:21:03,126
He said something.
483
00:21:03,195 --> 00:21:04,719
I thought he was joking.
484
00:21:05,197 --> 00:21:06,255
What did he say?
485
00:21:06,732 --> 00:21:10,600
He asked me, "What's the best way
to get rid of a body?"
486
00:21:13,939 --> 00:21:15,702
Get rid of a body?
487
00:21:15,774 --> 00:21:18,868
I'm starting to think that our lawyer
for the little guy did abduct someone.
488
00:21:18,944 --> 00:21:20,309
Yeah, and apparently killed them.
489
00:21:20,379 --> 00:21:22,210
Maybe that's what he meant
by settling a debt.
490
00:21:22,281 --> 00:21:25,512
But what was the debt, whom did he kill,
and how did it cost him his life?
491
00:21:25,584 --> 00:21:28,212
We need to check where Ryan and
Espo are with that missing persons list.
492
00:21:28,287 --> 00:21:31,814
If we can find a connection between
Richie and one of the people on the list,
493
00:21:31,890 --> 00:21:34,120
that should give us some answers.
494
00:21:35,527 --> 00:21:36,994
Where are Ryan and Espo, anyway?
495
00:21:37,062 --> 00:21:38,962
I think I saw them go into interrogation.
496
00:21:40,699 --> 00:21:42,257
Who are they interrogating?
497
00:21:43,602 --> 00:21:47,060
Hey, is there another suspect that
we don't know about? What's going on?
498
00:21:47,139 --> 00:21:51,405
I'm not supposed to say.
Or let anyone in.
499
00:21:53,078 --> 00:21:54,204
Okay.
500
00:21:55,380 --> 00:21:56,472
Hey!
501
00:22:04,489 --> 00:22:05,717
What are they doing?
502
00:22:13,098 --> 00:22:15,293
Are you seeing what I'm seeing?
503
00:22:19,938 --> 00:22:22,463
Sprained, my ass. His knee is fine!
504
00:22:23,675 --> 00:22:24,835
Daft Punk's Get Lucky?
505
00:22:24,910 --> 00:22:28,937
I'll bet they're changing the lyrics
to "You're Guilty." Ooh. That's good.
506
00:22:31,350 --> 00:22:35,343
Castle, he lied to us just so he could
sucker you into a bet, which you fell for!
507
00:22:38,657 --> 00:22:41,285
He's gonna regret this.
Now we have to win.
508
00:22:41,360 --> 00:22:43,157
With what? Our shower routine?
509
00:22:47,699 --> 00:22:50,429
Hey, guys. Got a sec?
I think I've got something.
510
00:22:52,170 --> 00:22:55,367
I haven't had any luck connecting that
list of dates and cities you gave me,
511
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,874
but when I traced Richie's call
to his ex yesterday
512
00:22:57,943 --> 00:22:59,774
I did find something interesting.
513
00:22:59,845 --> 00:23:03,281
Turns out it pinged off a cell tower
near Croton-on-Hudson.
514
00:23:03,348 --> 00:23:05,816
It's an hour north of the city.
What was Richie doing up there?
515
00:23:05,884 --> 00:23:09,752
I don't know. But by triangulating
the signal off of other nearby cell towers
516
00:23:09,821 --> 00:23:12,483
I was able to dial in
a more precise location.
517
00:23:12,557 --> 00:23:14,115
Montrose State Forest?
518
00:23:14,192 --> 00:23:17,821
To be exact, the call
came from this parking lot,
519
00:23:17,896 --> 00:23:20,694
right at a trail head
into this large wooded area.
520
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,336
An out-of-the-way forest,
well north of the city.
521
00:23:25,404 --> 00:23:27,099
Now, is it just me
or does that sound like...
522
00:23:27,172 --> 00:23:29,333
The perfect place to get rid of a body.
523
00:23:34,179 --> 00:23:36,443
You know
this is a long shot, right?
524
00:23:36,515 --> 00:23:39,313
If Richie parked
in the lot like Tory said,
525
00:23:39,384 --> 00:23:41,477
then he would have come down
this trail right here.
526
00:23:41,553 --> 00:23:43,214
And given how unwieldy it is
to carry a dead body...
527
00:23:45,557 --> 00:23:47,149
That's research, not experience.
528
00:23:47,225 --> 00:23:50,922
Now, then he wouldn't
have gone very far before burying it.
529
00:23:50,996 --> 00:23:54,261
Which means we just have to look
for freshly disturbed dirt
530
00:23:54,332 --> 00:23:57,699
in this, you know, general area.
531
00:23:58,236 --> 00:23:59,260
Like right here.
532
00:23:59,571 --> 00:24:01,038
Yeah, like I said, long shot.
533
00:24:01,106 --> 00:24:02,971
Just like our chances
at winning that competition.
534
00:24:03,041 --> 00:24:04,133
Oh, don't think like that.
535
00:24:04,209 --> 00:24:05,767
Come on, I need my partner
to have a positive attitude.
536
00:24:06,111 --> 00:24:07,874
Well, then maybe you should have
checked with your partner
537
00:24:07,946 --> 00:24:09,811
before signing her up for this.
538
00:24:09,881 --> 00:24:12,315
Oh, what's the big deal? It'll be fun.
539
00:24:12,384 --> 00:24:14,682
Castle, did you see
those knuckleheads?
540
00:24:14,753 --> 00:24:18,154
I mean, what if I wanna be a captain
one day of my own precinct?
541
00:24:18,223 --> 00:24:20,885
I kind of need people
to take me seriously.
542
00:24:20,959 --> 00:24:22,290
Oh, they do, trust me.
543
00:24:22,360 --> 00:24:24,225
And I'd like to keep it that way.
Which won't be possible
544
00:24:24,296 --> 00:24:27,561
if I'm acting like an idiot
in front of the entire police force.
545
00:24:27,632 --> 00:24:28,894
Okay, how about this?
546
00:24:28,967 --> 00:24:33,199
We do something simple,
dignified, elegant. Something like...
547
00:24:33,271 --> 00:24:34,795
A patch of Tussilago!
548
00:24:34,873 --> 00:24:35,862
I don't know that one.
549
00:24:35,941 --> 00:24:37,568
No, no, remember Lanie said
550
00:24:37,642 --> 00:24:41,840
that there was yellow pollen on
Richie's pants from a Tussilago flower?
551
00:24:41,913 --> 00:24:45,041
Check out this little yellow patch
right here, about ankle high.
552
00:24:46,218 --> 00:24:47,242
Beckett?
553
00:24:47,319 --> 00:24:48,445
Yeah.
554
00:24:54,493 --> 00:24:55,960
Richie did bury someone out here.
555
00:25:00,065 --> 00:25:03,262
Look, about the routine,
I know you're worried, but...
556
00:25:03,735 --> 00:25:06,636
It's okay, Castle.
It doesn't matter what we do.
557
00:25:07,072 --> 00:25:08,437
Hey, that's the spirit!
558
00:25:08,507 --> 00:25:09,769
It's gonna be a disaster.
559
00:25:09,841 --> 00:25:10,899
That's not the spirit.
560
00:25:11,810 --> 00:25:15,177
I'm probably gonna trip,
my dress is gonna split.
561
00:25:15,247 --> 00:25:16,271
Video's gonna go viral.
562
00:25:16,348 --> 00:25:18,213
Okay, now you're
just sounding paranoid.
563
00:25:18,283 --> 00:25:19,443
Where is this coming from?
564
00:25:19,818 --> 00:25:21,581
I'm just saying, Castle, it could happen.
565
00:25:21,653 --> 00:25:23,245
I mean, there's a reason why
566
00:25:23,321 --> 00:25:25,448
Captain Gates doesn't
get up on the stage and have fun.
567
00:25:25,524 --> 00:25:29,358
I just always assumed it was because
she was genetically incapable of it.
568
00:25:29,427 --> 00:25:30,519
Hey, you want me to cancel?
569
00:25:30,595 --> 00:25:31,789
No, no.
570
00:25:31,863 --> 00:25:34,457
That would just make me
lose face in another way.
571
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:36,824
I just hit something.
572
00:25:41,306 --> 00:25:42,364
That's a body bag.
573
00:25:59,891 --> 00:26:02,052
Put the bag down
and step away from the body.
574
00:26:04,362 --> 00:26:07,627
I think we may just have
dug our own graves.
575
00:26:13,838 --> 00:26:14,896
I don't hear anything.
576
00:26:14,973 --> 00:26:17,100
Mmm. Me neither.
577
00:26:17,175 --> 00:26:18,233
What's he doing?
578
00:26:23,682 --> 00:26:25,650
- He's gone.
- What?
579
00:26:28,219 --> 00:26:30,983
So is the body. He stole the body.
Why would anyone steal a body?
580
00:26:31,056 --> 00:26:32,455
He must be connected to this somehow.
581
00:26:32,524 --> 00:26:33,548
Maybe he and Richie are partners.
582
00:26:33,625 --> 00:26:34,683
Maybe they killed that person together.
583
00:26:34,759 --> 00:26:36,693
Well, they'll be time for questions later.
584
00:26:36,761 --> 00:26:38,854
Right now we just have to find a way
to saw through these zip-ties
585
00:26:38,930 --> 00:26:39,988
before he gets back.
586
00:26:40,065 --> 00:26:43,159
Yes, well, he took our keys,
and our phones, so...
587
00:26:43,234 --> 00:26:44,496
Oh! Wait a minute.
588
00:26:44,569 --> 00:26:48,232
As part of my P.I. Training I saw a video
on how to break these zip-tie cuffs.
589
00:26:48,306 --> 00:26:51,935
All you have to do is just hit them
as hard as you can against your ass.
590
00:26:52,110 --> 00:26:53,134
Ow!
591
00:26:53,211 --> 00:26:54,405
They said it might take a few tries.
592
00:26:54,479 --> 00:26:55,810
Okay.
593
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:02,709
Ow!
594
00:27:04,389 --> 00:27:05,413
It's not working.
595
00:27:05,490 --> 00:27:06,684
No, but on the bright side,
596
00:27:06,758 --> 00:27:08,783
I think we came up with a new move
for our dance routine.
597
00:27:09,260 --> 00:27:10,249
What...
598
00:27:10,328 --> 00:27:11,761
Too soon? Yeah.
599
00:27:12,130 --> 00:27:13,791
Aah! Yes!
600
00:27:16,501 --> 00:27:17,525
Oh!
601
00:27:18,103 --> 00:27:19,195
Sweet.
602
00:27:19,270 --> 00:27:20,669
He stole the body?
603
00:27:20,739 --> 00:27:23,765
Yeah. Send a team up to those woods
to comb for trace evidence.
604
00:27:23,842 --> 00:27:26,174
And check these zip-ties for DNA.
605
00:27:26,244 --> 00:27:27,336
Did you get a look at this guy?
606
00:27:27,412 --> 00:27:28,936
He was masked, came up behind us,
607
00:27:29,014 --> 00:27:30,948
kept us facing away
from him the whole time.
608
00:27:31,016 --> 00:27:33,883
Anything from Missing Persons, anyone
in Richie's life that disappeared?
609
00:27:33,952 --> 00:27:36,614
Well, we've looked into
every disappearance and break-in
610
00:27:36,688 --> 00:27:37,746
in the Tri-State area.
611
00:27:37,822 --> 00:27:40,086
So far no connection
to any one of them and Richie.
612
00:27:40,158 --> 00:27:44,527
And I checked with known associates,
clients, people he was suing.
613
00:27:44,596 --> 00:27:45,620
They're all accounted for.
614
00:27:45,697 --> 00:27:48,359
Yeah, well, somebody was in that bag.
So let's dig deeper.
615
00:27:48,433 --> 00:27:49,422
- Yeah.
- Mmm-hmm.
616
00:27:49,501 --> 00:27:52,698
Oh. And, uh, you can lose the limp.
617
00:27:53,204 --> 00:27:54,262
We saw you rehearsing.
618
00:27:54,339 --> 00:27:58,139
If I might add, it's no
I've Had the Crime of My life.
619
00:27:58,610 --> 00:28:01,477
Well, it's still good enough
to take the both of you down.
620
00:28:02,113 --> 00:28:04,638
Hey, come on, guys.
This isn't really about the competition.
621
00:28:04,716 --> 00:28:07,116
It's about doing our best
for a good cause, right?
622
00:28:07,819 --> 00:28:09,286
It's about the competition.
623
00:28:19,297 --> 00:28:20,286
Whoa!
624
00:28:20,398 --> 00:28:24,095
Bravo! And brava!
Wonderful, darlings, just wonderful!
625
00:28:24,169 --> 00:28:25,158
Thank you.
626
00:28:25,236 --> 00:28:27,602
And you were worried.
See, it's elegant, dignified,
627
00:28:27,672 --> 00:28:29,936
and above all,
a trophy-winning performance.
628
00:28:30,008 --> 00:28:30,997
Am I right, Mother?
629
00:28:31,076 --> 00:28:32,737
Well, it will be when I'm done with it.
630
00:28:32,811 --> 00:28:34,403
I'm gonna just need to tweak
a few little things,
631
00:28:34,479 --> 00:28:36,572
and I do wish you would go for that split.
632
00:28:36,648 --> 00:28:40,175
Okay, well, I will need you to
convince Ginger. I will be right back.
633
00:28:40,251 --> 00:28:41,309
Wait, where are you going?
634
00:28:41,386 --> 00:28:44,150
I'm gonna call Esposito. I think it's time
we raise the stakes on that bet.
635
00:28:44,222 --> 00:28:47,282
What? Castle, wait.
636
00:28:47,992 --> 00:28:52,429
Oh, darling, don't you worry about him,
do not worry about that trophy,
637
00:28:52,497 --> 00:28:55,364
because the only thing
that anybody is going to remember
638
00:28:55,433 --> 00:28:59,096
from the final performance
is that you sound like an angel.
639
00:28:59,170 --> 00:29:01,570
Except, Martha, I won't.
640
00:29:01,639 --> 00:29:03,937
Well, of course you will.
You just did.
641
00:29:04,008 --> 00:29:07,808
No, Martha that's because
it was just you and Rick.
642
00:29:07,879 --> 00:29:10,313
We weren't in public,
in front of strangers.
643
00:29:10,381 --> 00:29:12,212
Oh, no. Stage fright.
644
00:29:12,283 --> 00:29:14,843
Well,
it's more like song fright.
645
00:29:14,919 --> 00:29:16,443
I mean, my heart just starts palpitating,
646
00:29:16,521 --> 00:29:18,113
and I start sweating,
and my throat just chokes up.
647
00:29:18,189 --> 00:29:20,885
I know, I know, I know.
It's classic, and it's awful.
648
00:29:20,959 --> 00:29:23,860
And why in the world
would Richard sign you up for this?
649
00:29:27,298 --> 00:29:28,356
He doesn't know.
650
00:29:28,433 --> 00:29:31,163
Oh, honey. You have to tell him.
651
00:29:31,236 --> 00:29:34,137
Oh, I don't wanna let him down.
He wants this so badly,
652
00:29:34,205 --> 00:29:38,107
I wanna give it to him.
But I just... I don't know that I can.
653
00:29:38,409 --> 00:29:39,398
Oh.
654
00:29:41,646 --> 00:29:43,375
I cannot wait to see
the looks on their faces
655
00:29:43,448 --> 00:29:44,847
when they get a load of our routine.
656
00:29:44,916 --> 00:29:46,907
Yeah, I can imagine it vividly.
657
00:29:46,985 --> 00:29:48,543
Oh, trust me, we'll be great.
658
00:29:48,620 --> 00:29:53,751
If it's gonna be so great,
then why don't we up the bet again?
659
00:29:53,825 --> 00:29:55,258
Well, Esposito,
what did you have in mind?
660
00:29:55,326 --> 00:29:57,419
Sorry, fellows, all bets are off.
661
00:29:57,495 --> 00:29:59,258
I just heard from 1 PP.
662
00:29:59,330 --> 00:30:01,457
Kimmel rearranged his schedule,
and he's back in.
663
00:30:02,567 --> 00:30:06,196
Oh. So unfortunately we will not be
needing your services, Mr. Castle.
664
00:30:06,271 --> 00:30:08,364
- Really?
- But we rehearsed and everything.
665
00:30:08,439 --> 00:30:10,134
Out of my hands.
666
00:30:12,310 --> 00:30:14,369
- This isn't over.
- Well...
667
00:30:14,445 --> 00:30:16,436
- Hey, guys, we got him.
- Who?
668
00:30:16,514 --> 00:30:18,175
That guy who jacked you
for that body in the woods.
669
00:30:18,249 --> 00:30:20,911
When CSU went up there,
they noticed something in the trees.
670
00:30:20,985 --> 00:30:24,682
Cameras triggered by motion sensors
to carry out wildlife census.
671
00:30:24,756 --> 00:30:26,519
Guess what kind of wildlife we found.
672
00:30:29,027 --> 00:30:30,255
Mike Sampson.
673
00:30:30,328 --> 00:30:31,659
Richie's P.I.
674
00:30:37,869 --> 00:30:38,893
NYPD!
675
00:30:38,970 --> 00:30:39,994
Let me
see your hands, now!
676
00:30:43,308 --> 00:30:45,276
Where is it, Mike? Where's the body?
677
00:30:45,343 --> 00:30:46,776
What's going on?
What are you talking about?
678
00:30:46,845 --> 00:30:49,746
Search his place. Espo, pop the trunk.
679
00:30:49,814 --> 00:30:51,475
Hands on the car.
680
00:30:54,552 --> 00:30:55,541
All right.
681
00:30:56,721 --> 00:30:57,745
It's here.
682
00:30:57,822 --> 00:30:59,016
Who's in the bag, Mike?
683
00:31:10,501 --> 00:31:11,661
What the...
684
00:31:19,711 --> 00:31:23,169
Sampson's not talking.
About Richie or the dummy.
685
00:31:23,248 --> 00:31:24,306
I don't get it.
686
00:31:24,382 --> 00:31:25,440
Why would Richie
bury a crash test dummy
687
00:31:25,516 --> 00:31:26,574
in the middle of nowhere?
688
00:31:26,651 --> 00:31:27,675
And why would Sampson steal it?
689
00:31:27,752 --> 00:31:30,448
I don't know,
but he probably told us that story
690
00:31:30,521 --> 00:31:33,456
about Richie dumping a body
so that we could lead him straight to it.
691
00:31:33,524 --> 00:31:36,687
Well, it turns out that dummy is not
the only thing that Sampson stole.
692
00:31:36,761 --> 00:31:41,357
Unis found Richie's missing client files
in his apartment, shredded.
693
00:31:41,432 --> 00:31:43,923
This must have something to do
with one of Richie's cases.
694
00:31:44,002 --> 00:31:44,991
Yeah, but which one?
695
00:31:45,603 --> 00:31:49,232
You know, if Sampson won't talk,
then maybe the dummy will.
696
00:31:49,607 --> 00:31:52,167
You do know I'm a doctor,
not a puppeteer.
697
00:31:52,243 --> 00:31:53,710
Yes, and as a doctor,
698
00:31:53,778 --> 00:31:57,646
I was hoping that you could tell us
what's so special about this dummy.
699
00:31:57,715 --> 00:32:01,981
I'll tell you what's special about it.
This dummy has been murdered.
700
00:32:02,053 --> 00:32:03,213
Murdered?
701
00:32:03,288 --> 00:32:04,880
See the holes in its chest?
702
00:32:04,956 --> 00:32:06,116
They look like little bullet holes.
703
00:32:06,190 --> 00:32:07,817
That's basically what they are.
704
00:32:07,892 --> 00:32:08,950
As far as I can tell,
705
00:32:09,027 --> 00:32:11,860
they were made by small metal pieces
projected with significant force.
706
00:32:12,297 --> 00:32:13,491
What would explain that?
707
00:32:13,564 --> 00:32:16,328
It's hard to say.
Lots of people use these dummies.
708
00:32:16,401 --> 00:32:20,064
Car companies,
the airline industry, the military.
709
00:32:20,571 --> 00:32:23,802
So someone could have been testing
the effects of an IED or a new firearm.
710
00:32:24,208 --> 00:32:25,334
I don't think it's a firearm.
711
00:32:27,412 --> 00:32:31,815
Three holes, three bits of flying metal
around the heart.
712
00:32:31,883 --> 00:32:32,941
Where have we heard that before?
713
00:32:34,052 --> 00:32:37,647
Hammer's client.
The one Pitbull tried to poach.
714
00:32:38,623 --> 00:32:43,390
Last thing I remember was that salvage
truck hitting the median before me.
715
00:32:43,461 --> 00:32:45,486
That's when the metal started to fly.
716
00:32:45,563 --> 00:32:48,691
The paramedic said I was lucky,
that I almost died.
717
00:32:48,766 --> 00:32:51,030
Um, Jody, do you remember this guy?
718
00:32:51,102 --> 00:32:52,831
Yeah. The Pitbull.
719
00:32:52,904 --> 00:32:54,872
He wanted to represent me,
but I already had a lawyer.
720
00:32:54,939 --> 00:32:58,102
But then he wouldn't stop
asking about the accident,
721
00:32:58,176 --> 00:33:00,838
like he didn't believe what happened.
722
00:33:00,912 --> 00:33:02,607
Jody, what kind of car were you driving?
723
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,547
I'm not sure. It was a rental.
724
00:33:05,616 --> 00:33:07,208
Why does everyone keep asking that?
725
00:33:07,285 --> 00:33:08,343
Who's been asking?
726
00:33:08,786 --> 00:33:11,584
The Pitbull, and the lady
who was here yesterday.
727
00:33:11,656 --> 00:33:12,884
What lady?
728
00:33:12,957 --> 00:33:15,448
She said she was
from my insurance company.
729
00:33:15,526 --> 00:33:17,460
When I woke up,
she was looking at my chart.
730
00:33:17,528 --> 00:33:20,929
She asked me about my injuries
and wanted to know all about the car.
731
00:33:21,332 --> 00:33:22,526
Well,
that doesn't make any sense.
732
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:23,862
The insurance company
would have that information
733
00:33:23,935 --> 00:33:24,959
from the accident report.
734
00:33:25,036 --> 00:33:27,266
Yeah, do you think you could
describe her to a sketch artist?
735
00:33:27,605 --> 00:33:28,594
Yeah.
736
00:33:28,673 --> 00:33:30,538
Okay, and, um, one more thing.
737
00:33:30,608 --> 00:33:33,008
What was the name
of the car rental company?
738
00:33:33,077 --> 00:33:36,569
According to the rental firm,
Jody was driving a Modesto sedan.
739
00:33:36,647 --> 00:33:39,047
Now, I couldn't find any safety recalls
to explain her injuries,
740
00:33:39,117 --> 00:33:40,311
but on a hunch,
741
00:33:40,385 --> 00:33:43,183
I checked the cities and dates
on that slip of paper that we found.
742
00:33:43,254 --> 00:33:46,849
Turns out that each one
corresponded to a Modesto car accident
743
00:33:46,924 --> 00:33:49,119
where the driver suffered
puncture wounds to the chest.
744
00:33:49,193 --> 00:33:51,286
Just like Jody Evans
and that crash test dummy.
745
00:33:51,362 --> 00:33:52,920
Yeah, but in each case,
746
00:33:52,997 --> 00:33:55,192
the wounds were attributed to
something outside the vehicle.
747
00:33:55,266 --> 00:33:57,166
Road debris, even gunshots.
748
00:33:57,235 --> 00:33:59,294
Given the velocity of the shrapnel,
749
00:33:59,370 --> 00:34:02,168
this must be related
to a defect in the airbags.
750
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:03,707
And judging by the holes in that dummy,
751
00:34:03,775 --> 00:34:07,575
Modesto was aware of that defect,
and chose to sweep it under the rug.
752
00:34:07,645 --> 00:34:08,771
Richie was on to a cover-up.
753
00:34:08,846 --> 00:34:10,211
Yeah, one that
he might have been a part of.
754
00:34:10,281 --> 00:34:12,613
I looked into that big-time law firm
where Richie used to work
755
00:34:12,683 --> 00:34:14,947
five years ago
before he became the Pitbull.
756
00:34:15,019 --> 00:34:16,043
Guess who their biggest client was?
757
00:34:16,921 --> 00:34:18,252
Modesto Motors.
758
00:34:18,356 --> 00:34:19,755
Yeah, and Richie handled their account.
759
00:34:20,558 --> 00:34:23,686
You know, about five years ago,
Modesto was nearly bankrupt.
760
00:34:23,761 --> 00:34:27,458
So rather than spend millions of dollars
to fix the problem,
761
00:34:27,532 --> 00:34:29,659
they decided that the cost of recall
762
00:34:29,734 --> 00:34:31,827
outweighed the potential cost
to human life.
763
00:34:31,903 --> 00:34:33,564
Looks like Richie's conscience
couldn't take it.
764
00:34:33,638 --> 00:34:35,503
That problem he had
with drinking and drugs?
765
00:34:35,573 --> 00:34:36,972
Started just a few months
after that first accident.
766
00:34:37,575 --> 00:34:39,805
That debt Richie told Derek
he was settling?
767
00:34:39,877 --> 00:34:41,071
It was a karmic one.
768
00:34:41,145 --> 00:34:43,909
He wanted to make it right,
expose the cover-up.
769
00:34:43,981 --> 00:34:46,472
He needed to prove
that Modesto knew about the defect
770
00:34:46,551 --> 00:34:48,018
even before people started dying.
771
00:34:48,086 --> 00:34:51,214
That crash test dummy,
that was his smoking gun.
772
00:34:51,289 --> 00:34:53,052
Which explains the break-in equipment.
773
00:34:53,124 --> 00:34:55,183
He needed it
to steal the dummy from Modesto.
774
00:34:55,259 --> 00:34:58,990
No wonder Richie was paranoid
and buried that dummy in the woods.
775
00:34:59,063 --> 00:35:01,224
Guys, if the truth
about the defect came out,
776
00:35:01,299 --> 00:35:02,596
then Modesto would be liable
777
00:35:02,667 --> 00:35:05,033
for hundreds of millions of dollars
in damages.
778
00:35:05,103 --> 00:35:06,297
He knew they'd stop at nothing
to get it back.
779
00:35:07,238 --> 00:35:09,729
Okay, this is a hell of a theory,
but with Richie dead,
780
00:35:09,807 --> 00:35:11,604
the files all destroyed,
781
00:35:11,676 --> 00:35:14,736
and with absolutely no connection
between the dummy and Modesto,
782
00:35:14,812 --> 00:35:16,279
it's just that. It's a theory.
783
00:35:16,347 --> 00:35:17,678
Oh, it's more than a theory.
784
00:35:17,748 --> 00:35:19,238
We just got that sketch back from Jody
785
00:35:19,317 --> 00:35:22,878
of the woman who visited her claiming
to be from an insurance company.
786
00:35:22,954 --> 00:35:24,444
Look familiar?
787
00:35:25,123 --> 00:35:26,351
Richie's ex?
788
00:35:26,424 --> 00:35:28,790
What the hell does she have to do
with any of this?
789
00:35:28,860 --> 00:35:30,760
She was recently
poached from the law firm
790
00:35:30,828 --> 00:35:32,557
that she and Richie worked at.
791
00:35:32,630 --> 00:35:34,598
She's now lead counsel for Modesto.
792
00:35:34,999 --> 00:35:36,364
Richie was a threat.
793
00:35:36,434 --> 00:35:38,026
He knew where the bodies were buried.
794
00:35:38,102 --> 00:35:41,469
So his ex-wife decided
to add him to the pile.
795
00:35:45,510 --> 00:35:47,978
I'm not sure why I'm here.
I've told you everything I know.
796
00:35:48,045 --> 00:35:49,239
No. Not everything.
797
00:35:49,313 --> 00:35:51,907
You didn't tell us that you were
lead counsel for Modesto Motors,
798
00:35:51,983 --> 00:35:54,110
and you didn't tell us about the airbags.
799
00:35:54,185 --> 00:35:57,416
You know, those airbags
with a habit of putting holes in people.
800
00:35:57,488 --> 00:35:58,921
Like Jody Evans.
801
00:35:58,990 --> 00:36:00,048
Excuse me?
802
00:36:00,124 --> 00:36:02,718
Miss Resner, why did Richie
really call you the other day?
803
00:36:03,394 --> 00:36:06,761
Was it to give you a little heads-up,
you know, for old time's sake?
804
00:36:06,831 --> 00:36:08,799
Because that defect
he helped cover up back then,
805
00:36:08,866 --> 00:36:10,163
you were in on that, too.
806
00:36:10,234 --> 00:36:12,634
He was going public with it
and he didn't want you to be blindsided.
807
00:36:13,704 --> 00:36:15,001
But you couldn't let that happen.
808
00:36:15,072 --> 00:36:19,372
Not to Modesto and certainly not to you.
So you had him silenced.
809
00:36:20,711 --> 00:36:22,269
You think I killed my ex-husband?
810
00:36:22,346 --> 00:36:26,612
Detective, I had nothing to do
with Richie's death.
811
00:36:26,684 --> 00:36:29,881
And by the way,
there is no defect or cover-up.
812
00:36:30,922 --> 00:36:32,014
Richie knew otherwise.
813
00:36:32,089 --> 00:36:33,818
In fact, he committed a break-in
just to prove it.
814
00:36:34,091 --> 00:36:35,786
We found that a silent alarm was tripped
815
00:36:35,860 --> 00:36:38,590
at a Modesto Motors storage facility
three nights ago.
816
00:36:38,663 --> 00:36:42,622
But when police responded,
they were told it was set off by mistake.
817
00:36:42,700 --> 00:36:44,998
Yet an ambulance
was called there that night
818
00:36:45,069 --> 00:36:47,560
to treat a guard for chloroform inhalation.
819
00:36:48,673 --> 00:36:50,197
I'm not familiar with that incident.
820
00:36:50,541 --> 00:36:51,599
Well, are you familiar with this?
821
00:36:53,444 --> 00:36:55,105
It's evidence of your cover-up.
822
00:36:55,613 --> 00:36:59,947
If this dummy was illegally obtained
from a Modesto storage facility,
823
00:37:00,017 --> 00:37:02,713
then it is the property of Modesto
and we'd like it back.
824
00:37:02,787 --> 00:37:03,947
I'm sure you would.
825
00:37:04,021 --> 00:37:05,113
Especially considering
826
00:37:05,189 --> 00:37:08,681
it could cost your company
hundreds of millions of dollars.
827
00:37:08,759 --> 00:37:11,523
Which is why you hired this man
to retrieve it.
828
00:37:12,863 --> 00:37:14,490
We're looking into
his financial records right now.
829
00:37:14,565 --> 00:37:17,090
It's only a matter of time
before we connect him to Modesto.
830
00:37:18,469 --> 00:37:20,027
You're barking up the wrong tree,
Detective.
831
00:37:20,104 --> 00:37:22,470
Modesto has its own
in-house investigators.
832
00:37:23,107 --> 00:37:25,302
If we wanted to recover this dummy,
as you claim,
833
00:37:25,376 --> 00:37:28,368
why would we entrust
such a sensitive task to an outsider?
834
00:37:30,615 --> 00:37:32,207
But I have seen this man before.
835
00:37:32,283 --> 00:37:35,081
- Where?
- In front of Saint Simon's Hospital.
836
00:37:35,152 --> 00:37:38,053
He was sitting in a car,
conferring with someone else.
837
00:37:38,122 --> 00:37:39,885
Conferring with whom?
838
00:37:40,424 --> 00:37:41,914
Owed a cash settlement?
839
00:37:41,993 --> 00:37:43,654
It's Hammer time!
840
00:37:43,728 --> 00:37:45,161
I'll pound and pound away
841
00:37:45,229 --> 00:37:47,493
till I've nailed down the cash
you've got coming.
842
00:37:47,565 --> 00:37:52,093
Anyone gets in your way, they'll have to
deal with me, the Savannah Hammer.
843
00:37:53,904 --> 00:37:56,395
Is that what happened to Richie Falco?
844
00:37:56,474 --> 00:37:58,908
He got in your way,
so you pounded him till he was dead?
845
00:37:58,976 --> 00:38:01,410
Excuse me? We're filming...
846
00:38:02,980 --> 00:38:07,576
Mr. Castle, I will thank you and your
ridiculous allegations to wait outside.
847
00:38:07,652 --> 00:38:10,120
They're not just allegations,
not anymore.
848
00:38:10,187 --> 00:38:11,552
Mike Sampson gave you up.
849
00:38:11,622 --> 00:38:13,590
A witness placed the two of you together,
850
00:38:13,658 --> 00:38:16,183
and Sampson was more than eager
to distance himself from the murder.
851
00:38:16,260 --> 00:38:18,751
But he did admit
to breaking into Richie's office
852
00:38:18,829 --> 00:38:22,925
and hijacking the crash test dummy
from us because you paid him to.
853
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:24,729
I really don't know
what you're talking about.
854
00:38:24,802 --> 00:38:26,292
I think you do.
855
00:38:26,370 --> 00:38:29,965
You knew Modesto would pay millions
to get that dummy back.
856
00:38:30,041 --> 00:38:32,236
Matter of fact, you were so sure,
you promised Mike a cut.
857
00:38:32,310 --> 00:38:33,572
This is crazy.
858
00:38:33,644 --> 00:38:36,977
I never paid anyone to steal anything,
and I didn't kill the Pitbull.
859
00:38:37,048 --> 00:38:38,072
I have an alibi.
860
00:38:38,149 --> 00:38:39,741
No. Not anymore.
861
00:38:39,817 --> 00:38:43,253
Once your alibi found out she was
facing accessory to murder charges,
862
00:38:43,321 --> 00:38:46,051
she recanted
and admitted that you paid her.
863
00:38:46,123 --> 00:38:47,750
We found the Taser, Hammer.
864
00:38:47,825 --> 00:38:50,453
In the back of your car,
right next to that tire iron.
865
00:38:50,528 --> 00:38:51,756
Which you bleached,
866
00:38:51,829 --> 00:38:55,731
but you forgot about the droplets
of blood residue on the carpet.
867
00:38:55,800 --> 00:39:00,169
What do you think is gonna happen
when we test it against Richie's DNA?
868
00:39:00,871 --> 00:39:02,304
It's over.
869
00:39:02,807 --> 00:39:05,674
You know what I can't figure out is why.
870
00:39:06,177 --> 00:39:07,235
Why?
871
00:39:08,713 --> 00:39:13,480
Because he couldn't see that
that dummy was a gold mine.
872
00:39:14,652 --> 00:39:16,586
And all he wanted was justice?
873
00:39:16,654 --> 00:39:18,679
You're as naïve as he was.
874
00:39:20,091 --> 00:39:21,353
Let's go, Hammer.
875
00:39:21,425 --> 00:39:23,893
Yeah. It's slammer time.
876
00:39:28,599 --> 00:39:31,193
Hey! Look who decided to show up.
877
00:39:31,268 --> 00:39:33,532
Where were you guys?
You missed the competition.
878
00:39:33,604 --> 00:39:34,866
Yeah, sorry, you guys.
879
00:39:34,939 --> 00:39:37,305
We got held up
giving a statement at NTSB.
880
00:39:37,375 --> 00:39:38,603
Bet you'll be happy to know
881
00:39:38,676 --> 00:39:41,474
they're launching a full investigation
of Modesto Motors.
882
00:39:41,545 --> 00:39:43,638
Well, looks like Pitbull
is gonna get what he wanted,
883
00:39:43,714 --> 00:39:45,875
justice for all the victims of that defect.
884
00:39:45,950 --> 00:39:47,042
Yeah. What about you gentlemen?
885
00:39:47,118 --> 00:39:49,279
Did you get what you wanted
at the show?
886
00:39:49,887 --> 00:39:53,914
Well, um, let's put it this way,
we are no longer two-time champs.
887
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,087
- Three years in a row, baby!
- Oh, yeah!
888
00:40:00,598 --> 00:40:03,499
Whoo! That's awesome!
Oh, I'm so happy for you guys.
889
00:40:03,567 --> 00:40:04,659
Yeah, very nice, very nice.
890
00:40:04,735 --> 00:40:08,865
Congratulations, even though the field
of competition was a little light this year.
891
00:40:08,939 --> 00:40:11,840
Speaking of which, isn't there
a certain bet that needs settling?
892
00:40:11,909 --> 00:40:13,968
Oh, right, the dedication.
893
00:40:14,044 --> 00:40:16,444
I guess it's just a matter of
how big to make that font size.
894
00:40:16,947 --> 00:40:18,005
Seriously?
895
00:40:18,082 --> 00:40:20,175
Come on, guys, we didn't
even get a chance to square off.
896
00:40:20,251 --> 00:40:23,049
Which is why
we're not gonna hold you to it.
897
00:40:23,788 --> 00:40:25,050
You're off the hook, Castle.
898
00:40:25,222 --> 00:40:26,211
Oh.
899
00:40:26,457 --> 00:40:29,153
Thank you, thank you.
That's very big of you.
900
00:40:29,226 --> 00:40:30,887
Especially considering
we would have kicked your asses.
901
00:40:30,961 --> 00:40:32,451
Uh...
902
00:40:32,963 --> 00:40:37,923
Now if you're gonna talk smack,
well, then we are gonna settle this.
903
00:40:38,002 --> 00:40:40,095
Right here, right now.
904
00:40:40,171 --> 00:40:42,571
Why don't we just clear all these desks,
go head-to-head.
905
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,608
Let the precinct decide.
906
00:40:45,176 --> 00:40:46,165
Um...
907
00:40:47,411 --> 00:40:49,777
No, you want bragging rights,
they're yours.
908
00:40:49,847 --> 00:40:52,247
- Our routine's too good for you anyway.
- Mmm-hmm.
909
00:40:52,316 --> 00:40:53,476
- That's what I thought.
- Yeah.
910
00:40:58,622 --> 00:41:00,749
Since when
do you turn down a challenge?
911
00:41:00,825 --> 00:41:03,953
Oh, they know we're better.
No sense in embarrassing them.
912
00:41:04,028 --> 00:41:05,120
You know, don't you?
913
00:41:05,596 --> 00:41:06,722
Know what?
914
00:41:06,797 --> 00:41:08,731
That's why we got pulled
from the lineup.
915
00:41:08,799 --> 00:41:10,096
Kimmel's your bud.
916
00:41:10,167 --> 00:41:13,466
You must have called him and told him
to perform so we wouldn't have to.
917
00:41:13,537 --> 00:41:16,131
Or, so that I wouldn't have to.
918
00:41:16,540 --> 00:41:20,101
I may have overheard you
talking to my mother.
919
00:41:20,177 --> 00:41:21,269
You did that for me?
920
00:41:21,345 --> 00:41:23,643
No more of a sacrifice
than what you were gonna do for me.
921
00:41:23,714 --> 00:41:26,444
Kate, why wouldn't
you just say something?
922
00:41:28,452 --> 00:41:29,851
I didn't want you to think less of me,
923
00:41:30,488 --> 00:41:32,922
and I really didn't want
anyone else to know, so...
924
00:41:34,325 --> 00:41:35,417
Stupid.
925
00:41:35,493 --> 00:41:37,586
No, not stupid. Just human.
926
00:41:40,431 --> 00:41:41,489
Aren't you disappointed
927
00:41:41,565 --> 00:41:43,624
you're not gonna be able
to perform for an audience?
928
00:41:43,701 --> 00:41:45,726
The only audience I care about is you.
929
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:16,989
Oh.
930
00:42:19,500 --> 00:42:27,500
