We may all argue for fun that we are
the #1 Castle fan but I don’t think any of us ever take it to the level that
this episode did. We got a lot of fun
packed into this episode including unemployed Beckett, the gang working
together again, Pi being Pi, Gates being surprisingly cool, and a crazy Castle
fan… What could possibly go wrong? While
the situation may have been very serious, it was kept light as always which
made for a lot of fun moments so let’s get rollin’!
Honorable Mention:
Honorable
mention easily goes to the moment when Gates tells Beckett she can work the
crime scene. The look of determination
and purpose on Beckett’s face was amazing and I truly felt like the “real” Kate
Beckett was back in action!
5. Do Not Disturb
Starting
off the episode, we see Caskett in bed together. Beckett is already awake and starts tapping
Castle asking if he is too. He jokes
with her saying he is asleep and he is sleep talking. Beckett is already going crazy being unemployed
and we learn that she is unable to get her job back due to a hiring
freeze. Feeling dejected she says she
may as well be a mall cop which Castle fully supports because she would “look
great on a segway.” Beckett continues to
worry saying “what are we going to do, just sleep in every morning and screw
around until the phone rings? What kind
of life is that?” Castle replies saying “mine.” Whoops… Didn’t think about that one. Castle tries to make her feel better by saying
that now she is “with him” she doesn’t need to work. Beckett asks if that means he is her “sugar
daddy” and immediately realizing his mistake, Castle plays the sleep talking
card. But don’t worry, just like every fun
Caskett moment there has to be an interruption right? And cue Pi… in a towel? He walks into Castle’s bedroom telling them
they are “super cute” even when fighting which made me just groan in
annoyance. I’m not a huge Pi fan but I
did love how he called Beckett “Mrs. C. to be.”
Don’t get too comfy though Pi… I’m still not overjoyed with your
presence. J (And
back to me not liking Pi) Seriously though, who walks into their girlfriend’s
dad’s bedroom when you know he is in his bed with his fiancé? REALLY PI?!?
If you can’t get some privacy in your own bedroom where can you? Looks like it’s time to start locking doors
in your own loft.
4. Taking
Orders
After
being shot, the team is back at the 12th discussing the case and
what their next move should be. Castle
is telling the team that he thinks Angelo was trying to find Emma’s birth
parents and Espo points out that Angelo could have hid them somewhere since his
gift to Emma was a surprise. Going
straight into Detective Kate Beckett mode, Beckett says “Head back to Angelo’s place;
we need to search it again.” Espo and
Ryan both turn they chairs around to face Beckett and Espo says “you are aware
that you don’t actually work here anymore right?” Slightly embarrassed, and
perhaps disappointed, Beckett apologizes blaming the slip on old habits. Espo then tries to cover it up saying he and
Sully will head over the Angelo’s apartment but not because Beckett said
to. You’re not fooling anyone Espo but
we all appreciate you trying to be tough J I loved seeing Beckett back in detective mode
and it made me even more hopeful that she would get her job back because even
though she was gone for months, the team still has their usual rhythm. Also Beckett just seems way more comfortable
at the 12th than she did in DC and she is actually able to work the
case instead of following federal orders and not getting justice for every
victim. Hints of Detective Kate Beckett
and Ryan and Espo trying to be tough easily secured this moment a spot on this week’s
countdown!
3. Pep
Talk
How
about a short but sweet moment to keep this countdown going? After getting briefed on how to handle the
hostage situation, Beckett makes sure to give Castle some instructions of her
own. She tells him “Listen, I’m kinda looking forward to spending the rest of
my life with you so don’t do anything stupid in there ok?” Castle reassures her saying “Hey, don’t worry.
I think I already hit my stupid quota
for the day.” Um, yea definitely after
that sugar daddy comment. But back to this sweet moment! My shipper heart is going crazy with all
these Beckett admitting how much she loves and cares for Castle moments this
season. They are just so sweet together
and I love how excited their future together makes her. If anyone deserves happiness its Castle and
Beckett and I can’t wait to see them get their happily ever after! I could get used to having moments like this
every episode and as long as they are in the episode they have a reserved spot
on my countdown!
2. Cheeseburgers!
Things
get a little heated in the hostage situation and the patient at the dentist
office, Mike, tries to take control of the situation and get Emma’s gun. A struggle ensues and Castle ends up being
shot which causes a very worried Beckett (think Cops and Robbers part 2) to run
into the building to Castle who is motionless on the floor. She says he names
and puts her hands on his cheeks at the moment Castle comes to and yells “CHEESEBURGERS!” Good use of the safe word Castle, but help is
already in the building. Startled, Kate backs up and Castle sits up pointing
out that the bullet dotted the “I” on his writer vest. Kate then gives him a big hug which is
extremely painful to Castle (he did just get hit on the vest with a bullet)
causing them both to pull away and leave us with plenty of meme worthy funny
faced screencaps… seriously… just look below!
Beckett assures him that “all that matters is that you’re ok now” but
Castle states they are better than ok because “I know who the killer is.” A couple of reasons I like this moment. First, the whole cheeseburgers line was
hilarious and so typical Castle. Also, only Castle would be so amused that the
bullet that would have killed him dotted the “I” on his vest. Finally, Caskett finally got the hug they
wanted to do at the end of Cops and Robbers even if it was painful! Oh and an added bonus; it was nice to hear
the “I know who the killer is” line making a return!
Ok, I'm done with these :-)
1. Coming
“Home”
After solving the case, Emma’s birth dad Aaron Stokes (who is
a pretty powerful person in the city) thanks “detective” Beckett and Gates for
their help. Kate corrects him saying she
isn’t a detective which puzzles Mr. Stokes.
Gates explains that she should be but his “golfing buddy’s budget cuts
have gotten in the way.” Surprised he
says “really?” and we cut to the boys talking to Castle about his crazy fan. Ryan and Espo tell Beckett how fun it was
working with her again and how they miss it.
Beckett then breaks the news to them that she is back at the 12th! Thrilled, Castle immediately asks if it means
he is back also, and it turns out Gates has agreed to let them continue their
partnership and as long as they act professionally in the workplace their
relationship won’t be a problem. Gates
even said it was her engagement gift to them.
Ryan then announces to the precinct that Beckett is back and everyone
cheers. Castle congratulates Beckett and
goes in for a kiss quickly pulling away because it would be inappropriate
workplace behavior. Both of them clearly
wanting to kiss, Beckett states she isn’t officially back until tomorrow and
they both get what they want and so do the fans J. So many great moments going on here but most
importantly DETECTIVE BECKETT IS BACK! Also,
I loved seeing how excited Ryan and Espo were and you could tell how much
Castle has missed consulting at the 12th. Gates is also continuing to show her soft
spot by helping Kate’s hiring process along with her comment to Mr. Stokes and vouching
for Caskett’s professionalism to allow them to work together. And a precinct kiss? Yes, please! I’m so excited to finally have everyone back
at the 12th and loved the way the episode led to Kate’s re-hiring!
YAY! Our little 12th
family is back together and I’m so excited to see them solving crimes again! Are you excited that Beckett is back at the
12th or were you hoping for more unemployed Beckett time? Join the discussion in the comments section
