It seems like we have gone a while
without a Caskett centered episode but Castle definitely delivered this
week. The case focused on a relationship
expert and a giant man made diamond but we also got to see Caskett work out
relationship problems of their own and deliver more Caskett-y goodness with an
added bonus of bromance! As always there
were plenty of good moments to choose from my here’s my top five!
5. Manliest Man
I
love it when we get good bromance moments and this was one of them! Ryan is talking to Espo about Alice’s book
and he tells him that “in every relationship there needs to be a masculine
energy and a feminine energy - even in ours.”
Espo, always the manly man, quickly says “well we know which one you are.” Ryan tries to be the manly one saying “I don’t
know about you but I’m very comfortable in my masculinity.” Putting an end to the conversation, Espo says
“You do realize you’re wearing a sweater vest right?” Zing.
Score 1 for Espo. Sorry Ryan, I
love a cute guy in a sweater vest, but if most people had to pick, Esposito is
the man in that partnership. Agree with me? An easy choice here as brotherly
love sends this masculine moment right up in the top 5!
4. Our
Lair
After
discussing Linus the lion in Castle’s bedroom, Caskett continues to
conversation at the crime scene. Castle
explains that he bought Linus with his first royalty check and that “he’s my totem. Wild and untamed and my bedroom is my lair.” Beckett responds “I know Castle but isn’t it
kind of our lair now?” Castle continues his justification saying “Linus
the lion is part of my identity you don’t want to strip me of my identity do
you?” Beckett starts to make Castle
believe he has won the Linus battle and says “no… you know what? You’re right I’m
sorry.” But not so fast Castle… Beckett
finishes by saying “I can just stay at my own place.” Clearly thinking he has won Castle originally
says thanks but then gets flustered and says “wait… no… that’s not…” Aww, sorry Castle. Beckett got you good that
time. But let’s take a moment to embrace
that Beckett said “our lair.” Again,
Caskett being all domestic and discussing their relationship ends up on the
countdown. I love that Beckett is so
comfortable with the subject and that she is basically calling Castle’s loft
her space too. Now we just need them to
officially move in together!
3. 60
Million Dollar Diamond Plans
More
bromance in one episode? You bet! While riding in their car back to the
precinct with the huge diamond, Espo asks Ryan “So, we thinking the same thing?” Ryan says “That it’s a bummer we can’t stop
for lunch because there’s a 60 million dollar diamond sitting between us?” Confused and disappointed in his answer Espo
says “no… that because of the 60 million dollar diamond sitting between us that
we are not really but kind of sort of thinking about making a run for the
border.” Ryan admits “that didn’t even
cross my mind” and Espo says “of course it didn’t. Nope.
You wouldn’t have the stones.”
Looks like Espositio is still trying to prove he is the masculine energy
of the relationship and I think this makes the tally 2 masculine points for
Esposito. It’s nice to see an episode
with a mix of Caskett moments and bromance ones too instead of focusing too
much on one character. It makes for a
fun and exciting episode.
2. Our Desk
Castle
and Beckett sit at Beckett’s desk and Castle says “So I was thinking. When we work a case together this desk of
yours is sort of, kind of our
space. And these elephants on parade
have creeped me out since day one. So what do you say we just get rid of these? Oh I’m sorry do you have a problem with that…
if I try to get rid of something that obviously has deep meaning to you?” Sensing
that Castle is trying to make her feel the same way he did when she told him to
move Linus, Beckett says “If you don’t like the elephants, I don’t like the elephants.” Frustrated that his plan didn’t go as he
expected, Castle says “Fine. I actually
like those elephants. They obviously have
family value s and this one’s good with money.”
I love that Castle tried to turn the tables on Beckett only to get shot
down (as usual). Also, I loved it when Beckett answered him in a sly way and
you could just see the disappointment when she didn’t show anger when he tried
to put the elephants away. When Castle
admitted he actually like the elephants (for hilarious reasons) I had to laugh
because he basically admitted defeat in his attempt to get Beckett to keep
Linus. Castle losing playful battles
with Beckett will never get old J
1. “Sea”
You Later, Linus!
Leading
Beckett into the bedroom, Castle instructs Beckett to keep her eyes close and
she tells him that if she is leading her to Linus she will pull out her gun and
shoot him. Castle tells her that won’t
be necessary as he reveals a new piece of artwork in Linus’ old spot. Confused Beckett says “seashells?” But Castle
quickly says “not just seashells, those are our
seashells. We collected those” “on our
first walk in the Hamptons” finishes Beckett.
Shocked she says she can’t believe he kept them and tells him he didn’t have
to replace Linus for her. Castle
explains what the mating analysis book said saying “we’re both alphas and it
says we need to define our shared territory together.” He says that all the art in the room is his
story but the shells are “ours.” Beckett
smiles and says “I like our story.” They
share a hug and you think the sweet moment is over when a roaring sound effect
starts coming from Castle’s phone but he redeems himself by telling Beckett “look
if you’re scared you can always sleep on my side of the bed tonight.” Beckett answers for all of us saying “deal.” I can’t take all these “our” moments! They are so sweet and remind us how far we
have come from season one. Also, Castle keeping the seashells? I love how sentimental he is and you could
tell it meant a lot to Beckett when she remembered what they were from. I can’t wait to see what the rest of Castle
and Beckett’s story has in store for us.
Are you as excited as I am about the “our” moments? And how about the previews for next week’s
