We made it!! After a very long summer full of questions
like “Will Kate say yes?” “Will she take
the job in DC?” “Could Caskett make it if they both aren’t in NYC?” we finally
got answers! Well we at least got two of
these answered before we even got to the first commercial break. J I am so excited to be back for season 2 of
Castle Cliff Notes! To my readers from last season I'm so happy and thankful you are still reading and for the new readers our there Welcome and let me give
you a quick rundown! Basically, every
week after watching Castle I put together my list of my top five favorite
moments from the episode with a little description and some of my own
commentary. It’s basically a quick way
to cover some top moments from the show and also get you thinking out your
favorites as well! So let’s get season 6 rocking!
5. Pie? Like the Dessert?
Arriving
home from his West Coast book tour, Castle is surprised to see Alexis home a
day early from her trip to Costa Rica.
She tells her dad they she can’t wait to show him “our pictures.” Hold on Alexis…. Our pictures?? Looks like it’s time for Castle to jump into
super dad mode. We then hear a male
voice asking “Al” for matches. Uh oh,
looks like Castle might be dealing with a new boyfriend! And how fantastic was
Martha saying “Surprise again” as Castle looked up at the stairs nervously at
his daughters new friend. Alexis
introduces her new “friend” Pi to her dad he happily greats Castle with a hug
leaving Castle temporarily stunned. As Alexis takes Pi away Castle nervously
asks Martha if he is staying at the loft (of course he is!) and states that he
isn’t staying in her room loudly announcing that Alexis should put blankets on
the couch so he is comfortable and
visible. If you read cliff notes last season you know I just love it when
Castle goes into dad mode because you get to see a different side of him. I also couldn’t help but wonder if Castle was
missing Kate at that moment as he usually asks her for advice when it comes to
Alexis and boys. What do you think? Will Pi be fun to have around with Castle in
the loft or will Alexis lose interest in him as she has with guys in the past?

4. Babe
(and not the cute pink pig)
Ok
this may seem like a weird “top moment” considering it is actually pretty
serious and intense but the acting was great and Beckett used the word “babe”
so….yea it’s on here. Castle gets taken from his house by federal agents who
bring him to DC and take a sample of his blood.
Beckett walks into the interrogation room and starts to explain to
Castle that the case she is working is more than they initially thought it was. Castle jokingly asks Beckett is she is going
to waterboard him because it would affect their relationship but she quickly
stops his attempt to lighten the mood with humor. “No babe. Can you listen for
a second?” She then grabs his hands and explains
that a chemical agent was stolen from the building that could kill
thousands. The same toxin was used to
kill the man who abducted Castle and it was aerosolized in his car which Castle
was riding in. It then dawns on Castle that he was exposed and Beckett reveals
that based on the amount in his blood, he has less than a day to live. REALLY?? We just had to make it through
hiatus with a big cliffhanger, we get our proposal answer and now this happens
to end the very first episode? Castle and I have such a love hate relationship…
but I quickly get over the hate part (haha).
First off, Beckett said babe! I
mean the use of a real pet name (not like kitten in a joking manner…) earns an
automatic spot but you could just feel how serious and tense the situation was
by how she talked to Castle. You could
tell she was doing her best to stay calm for Castle but also understood how
serious the situation was. Guess we will
have to wait until next week to see how this one ends up!


3. I Didn’t Think I Was Going to Get Caught! Yea... Well... You Did!
Ok I
had to get a good moment between Beckett, McCord, and Castle in this countdown
and I just thought this moment was hilarious.
While it is normally Castle vs. Beckett this time he was outnumber 2:1
as Beckett and McCord breakdown his lie.
Arriving at the golf course, Beckett and McCord talk to a security guard
who tells them that like he told the “other guy” he wasn’t there last
night. McCord confused asks “What other
guy?” and the security guard points to Castle on the golf cart. Upset McCord asks “What the hell is he doing
here?” Beckett swears she didn’t tell
him anything and you can tell Castle knows he is busted the minute he sees
them. He tries to play it off as he was
going to golf while Beckett was working but Agent McCord calls him out asking
where his clubs are. I love the way he
muttered “crap” under his breath as he knew he was busted. McCord goes off explaining how Beckett could
be kicked off the team and Castle could be arrested telling him that the next
time she sees him it better be on one of his book jackets. Castle and Beckett
then go on to discuss how he can’t get involved with her federal work. While I thought the moment was funny it also
made me realize how badly I want Beckett back at the 12th. Don’t get me wrong I loved the episode but
who doesn’t miss Castle and Beckett actually getting to work a case together
without fear of others finding out.
Sigh. And when they both thought of the case at the Old Haunt?? I miss my (legal) crime solving duo! Ok
rant over… the moment was still pretty funny and Lisa Edelstein was fantastic
as McCord! She makes it hard for me to
hate the feds J

2. Late Night Make Out Session
Arriving
home after a long day at work (and having to cancel her trip to see Castle)
Beckett makes her way to the bathroom and begins to change revealing her
engagement ring and her moms ring on her necklace. You can see the disappointment on her face
that she missed out on a weekend with Castle but then she hears something
behind her and turns around pointing her gun at the mystery stranger. “Woah can you at least finish taking that off
before you shoot me?” Startled Beckett
says “Castle!” but then realizes he shouldn’t be there and says his name as
more of a question. Turns out he just couldn’t
go another week without seeing her. And
if actions are any indication, neither could Beckett. She initially says he shouldn’t have come,
but when Castle asks if he should leave she says “immediately” then goes in for
a deep kiss and they begin making out in the bathroom. YES! It’s
so refreshing to see Beckett letting herself dive 100% into this relationship
and not holding back her feelings. The
old Beckett would never admit that she missed her significant other and as a
total side note… she gave him a kiss before leaving for work the next morning. Man, Caskett “hotness” and “cuteness” just
never gets old!


1. Yes…No…Yes?
I
mean really… did you think any other moment could possibly be number 1 this
week?!?! Of course its Kate’s answer to
Castle’s proposal and the way they handled it in a way only Caskett could. Wasting no time, the episode immediately
starts right where last season left off and Kate jumps of the swings clearly
surprised that Castle is proposing and not breaking up with her as she suspected. Relieved,
Kate kisses him (marking our first Caskett kiss of the season) and Castle asks
if it’s a yes to his proposal and typical Caskett craziness ensues so I had to
include it…
Beckett: No wait
Castle: No?
Beckett: No no no not—not
no
Castle: so yes?
Beckett: I…
Castle: Not yes?
Beckett: No not “not
yes” I…
Castle: “You do know
how this works right?”
Beckett goes on to
tell Castle about the job and wants to make sure he understands why she wants
to take it. Castle reassures her but
telling he isn’t proposing to keep her in NYC, he is proposing because he can’t
image life without her. Awww! My shipper heart couldn’t take all the feels! Not wasting any time Beckett says “well in that case Richard Edgar Alexander Rodgers
Castle Yes. Yes I will marry you.” But no serious, touching moment ever lasts
too long on Castle looking at the ring on her finder Beckett states “it’s big” and
Castle tries to justify it saying “no you just have remarkably tiny fingers.” SHE SAID YES!! I could hear the screams of Castle fandom at
that moment. It was just so perfect…
sweet, funny and uniquely Caskett! And
that is why it was easily my number one moment this week!

Season 6 is finally underway!
So what did you guys think? Did
you love the proposal response or did a fall flat for you? Also, I know the fandom is pretty split but
who wants Beckett to stay in DC and who wants the team at the 12th
back together soon? Don’t get me wrong I
liked the DC storyline and McCord but I’m not going to want it forever! I Join the discussion in the comments section
