It’s finally
here! I gave you guys the challenge of
sending me some of your favorite Castle moments and I was thrilled with the results. You
picked some really great ones so let’s get started! These are organized by season and include a
little rationale from the fans that chose them mixed with my thoughts and
a video clip for a little refresher!
Enjoy!
Season 1
Why not start all the
way back at “Flowers for Your Grave” (the pilot episode) where the magic
started…
- After finding out
from Montgomery that Castle wants to base his next main character after her,
Beckett is initially (hesitantly) flattered until she learns that he will have to
do research and shadow her. In one of my
favorite (and highly accurate) quotes describing Castle, Beckett says “Sir, he
is like a nine year old on a sugar rush.” @MyaHyland submitted this moment
because she loves Castle’s smile after Montgomery tells Beckett that it is up
to Castle how long he shadows her.
Definitely a playful smirk since he knows he is in control of how long
he gets to hang out with her. J
Great choice! (this scene starts at the 8:35 mark.. but blogger was acting up so you get the whole youtube video!)
- The next pilot scene
was submitted by two of our lovely followers @tvmusiclover and @77rocket and it
would definitely be on my list as well!
They both love it when Castle and Beckett say goodbye after Kate turns
down being one of his “conquests” and Castle tells Beckett “it’s too bad… it
would have been great.” Beckett, leaning
in closer to Castle, replies with (say it with me everyone!) “You have no idea”
and walks away leaving a speechless Castle.
@tvmusiclover also said that this was the exact moment she fell in love
with the show and with Castle/Beckett and it’s easy to see why…I mean did you
see that chemistry??? *sigh*
Season 2
- Moving onto season
two, @MyaHyland shared a great Lanie moment from 2x12 “A Rose for Everafter!” Beckett is in the morgue with Lanie
discussing a case involving Castle’s “lost love” and Lanie tells Beckett she
has to be somewhat jealous especially since they work together and he writes
steamy sex scenes about Nikki Heat (fantasies about Beckett yes?). Beckett denies it and Lanie yells after her
as she leaves the morgue “Honey, just because you can’t see what’s going on
doesn’t mean everyone else doesn’t see what’s going on!” Mya loved this one because clearly we could
definitely all see what was going on!
Also, Beckett’s “shut up” response was hilarious. Seriously, just watch the clip for a little
BFF love!
- @77Rocket also had a
favorite moment from season 2 episode 13 “Sucker Punch.” Castle comes to apologize to Beckett and say
he is done shadowing her because he overstepped his boundaries by looking into
her mother’s case, which led to her shooting Coonan before finding out her
mother’s killer. Beckett tells him she
wants him to stick around and help her find the killer saying “I gotten used to
you pulling my pigtails. I have a hard
job Castle and having you around makes it a little more fun.” Of course she threatens to shoot him if he
tells anyone she said that, but at least we get to enjoy the sweet moment. I love this choice because we actually got to
see Beckett straight up tell Castle she enjoys spending time with him and we
knew we were on our way to Caskett (…eventually)!
Season 3
- First from 3x13,
“Knockdown” Beckett is talking to Castle (aka Chuck Norris..just watch the
video) in the back of an ambulance and she thanks him for “having her back in
there” to which Castle replies “always.”
Now I know what you’re thinking… hey that’s not all the special they
have thanked each other for that a few times but this was the FIRST time the
word “always” was used by Caskett.
Excellent choice @77rocket! This
moment definitely deserves a spot on this list. Check out the video and relive
the moment that changes the word “always” forever! Also, as a side note: the song playing in the
background is “Rise” by The Frames and it’s an amazing song with a lot of great
emotion so check it out as well Caskett lovers!
- No one did it, so I’m
also taking it upon myself to add one of my favorites also from
“Knockdown.” I’ll give you one guess,
and since you know I’m a huge Caskett shipper I’m sure you know what it is…
that’s right its Castle and Beckett’s first "kiss!" And I don’t care what anyone says, they may
have been “acting” but that kiss was enjoyed by both parties! Ok, there are really no words to describe
this so just watch it already!
- The last season three
moment, also from @77rocket, comes from episode 3x21 “The Dead Pool.” In case you need a little refresher, during
this episode Castle brings an up and coming mystery author who he helped get
published, Alex Conrad, to come shadow Beckett with him. Castle was initially fine with the idea of
him shadowing Beckett but then gets jealous of the time that Conrad and Beckett
spend together. Castle says he wants her
all to himself and doesn't want to share her with another author, which Beckett
finds sweet. She
reassures him she will not be hanging out with Conrad anymore, and then
delivers the famous line “I’m a one writer girl.” We also get an “always” from Kate!!! And for the record Espo… it is a little weird
for a “dude” to be a muse. Check it out below!
Season 4
- Our first twitter
submitted season 4 moment comes from episode 4x20 “The Limey.” Season 4 was getting pretty heavy at this
point and we were all happy to see a little girl time between Lanie and
Beckett. Discussing how Castle was
acting differently lately, Beckett says it seems like Castle is pulling away and Lanie
tells her he is probably tired of waiting.
Beckett says “waiting for what?” but we can know she’s not totally
clueless and Lanie calls her out on it telling her she is crazy about him. When Beckett looks confused, Lanie says “oh
what, was that supposed to be some big secret?” and Beckett says “Yes…no…do you
think he knows?” @MyaHyland loved this
because Beckett doesn't deny she is crazy about Castle. I can’t help but
love insecure Beckett who is clearly in love since I acted the same way before
I dated my fiancé!
- In episode 4x22
“Undead Again” most Castle fans were in a panic about the future of our
favorite crime solving duo after “Headhunters” but Castle managed to get some
laughs out of us. @MyaHyland loved it
when Castle said “Our killers a zombie!” and then proceeded to high five a
random 12th precinct employee and wished she could have been that
girl! I’m with you Mya, I would have
loved to be a part of that scene and I’d be lying if I said I didn’t rewatch
this a few times!
- If I were a betting
person, before I even sent out the requests for Castle moments I would have put
my money on this next moment making the countdown. @MyaHyland and Castillions everywhere were on
the edges of their seat when Kate showed up at Castle’s door at the end of 4x23
“Always.” Not that I need to remind you,
but Castle answers his door and asks Beckett what she wants and she responds “you.”
Mya’s favorite moment was when Beckett tells Castle “I almost died and all I
could think about was you. I just want
you.” *Cue boom of thunder and amazing Caskett make out session followed by a
trip to the bedroom* Yup…I re-watched this clip about 1,000 times after it
happened (#notashamed) and it was also a favorite of @TwelfthPrecinct.
Season 5
- Ok, we covered
Caskett’s first kiss but how about the morning after? First off, I wish my
morning hair looked a great as Kate Beckett’s (not to mention it was soaked
from the rain the night before) @MyaHyland’s final favorite Castle moment was
Castle’s beaming grin after Beckett tells him it’s not just a one time thing
for her in 5x01 “After the Storm”. The
whole scene is just Caskett greatness! Of course though, all good things
Caskett are eventually interrupted by someone (I think this is a law right?)
and Martha ends the fun, but it’s still a great scene and the perfect way to
start season 5!
- Ending the countdown
we have a scene from 5x05 “Probable Cause.” The particular case involves
jewelry and Beckett tells Ryan that they might find fingerprints on the jewelry
itself. Castle says “jewelry, I never
would have thought of that.” and Beckett says “I guess I’ll have to remind you
when my birthday’s coming up.” Castle
responded with “why Detective Beckett was that a hint you just dropped?” and
@MissLLLL loved Beckett’s adorable response of “Why Mr. Castle, I do believe it
was.” Its official, no one can resist the Caskett charm… they are just
ridiculously cute together!
12th
Precinct Picks!
Alright just to add a
few more clips in I decided to include the favorites of some of the 12th’s
contributors! Enjoy!
- From episode 2x21
“Den of Thieves” @TwelfthPrecinct loves the scene at the end when Espo is
introducing Castle and Ryan to his old partner.
This is the first time you can really see Castle is “one of the guys and
part of the team.” Be prepared for a
little bromance! **I apologize but I couldn't find a clean clip of this one and didn't want to embed a whole episode so I had to do an external link!
- @dtrekker aka our
awesome Agent Angie wanted to make sure I included her favorite clip from
episode 3x11 “Nikki Heat.” She loves it
when Beckett says “she took my coffee Castle!” because as Angie said the real
translation here is “she’s stealing my not-yet-boyfriend under my own nose!”
Love it!
- Who could forget the
Freezer scene from 3x17 “Countdown?”
@TwelfthPrecinct and I chose this moment and I know I never
get sick of watching it. What I would do to hear Beckett finish the
sentence “I just want you to know how much I …” Love you? Yup!
- One of my personal
favorite moments from season 4 is in episode 4x06 “Demons.” Castle stops by Beckett’s apartment to go
over their case and he thinks that the house that the murder occurred in is haunted. Beckett wants to go in the morning but Castle
wants to go now…unless she is afraid.
Kate Beckett afraid of a haunted house?
Yea right, she “ain’t afraid of no ghosts!” I couldn’t pass up on a cross between Castle
and Ghostbusters, plus she says it just for Castle, that counts for something
right?
Well that's the end! Thanks to everyone
who sent in moments and all of the readers!
It was really interesting to see everyone’s favorite moments because
while some were clear favorites, each fan had a unique one as well. This was a lot of fun to put together and I
hope you enjoyed watching all the clips as much as I did. Castle Cliff Notes will be back on January 7th
when Castle returns and keep checking in with @TwelfthPrecinct for the latest Castle news!
Until then, keep calm
and watch Castle!
