TVTranscript
00:00There are two kinds of folks who sit around thinking about how to kill people.
00:03Psychopaths and mystery writers.
00:05I'm the kind that pays better.
00:06Who am I?
00:07I'm Rick Castle.
00:08Castle.
00:09Castle.
00:09I really am ruggedly handsome, aren't I?
00:12Every writer needs inspiration, and I've found mine.
00:14Detective Kate Beckett.
00:15Beckett.
00:16Beckett.
00:16Nicky Heath.
00:17The character he's basing on you.
00:18And thanks to my friendship with the mayor, I get to be on her case.
00:21I'd be happy to let you spank me.
00:23And together we catch killers.
00:24Make a pretty good team, you know, like Starsky and Hutch.
00:27Turner and Hooch.
00:28You do remind me a little of Hooch.
00:44That's a good girl.
00:45What's up, Castle?
00:46You proposing?
00:47Oh, no.
00:48Just waiting for you.
00:49It's too bad.
00:50You two make a cute couple.
00:52Yeah.
00:52Hey, you think I should get a dog?
00:54What about your wife?
00:55Yeah, you're my work wife.
00:56No, I'm not your work wife.
00:57I could get a bloodhound.
00:58I could name him Sherlock, and then I could bring him to crime scenes.
01:01No, you couldn't.
01:02Oh, what?
01:02It'd be adorable.
01:04I could get him to wear a little Sherlock hat, treating him how to carry a little magnifying
01:08glass.
01:08Oh, see?
01:09Right there.
01:10Disapproving, judgmental.
01:11You're totally my work wife.
01:12Oh, blood's bold, but it works.
01:17Not sure he'd agree.
01:22Hmm.
01:24Obviously, he was into art.
01:28Victor Fink, 43, gallery owner.
01:31There's no sign of forced entry.
01:33Tending upstairs, calling gunshots at 9-1-1 at 10-14 p.m.
01:36Any idea what he was doing here so late?
01:38No, but according to his assistant, Darius Langley, they closed at 8.
01:42As far as you can tell, there's nothing missing off the walls or from the back.
01:44Anything off those security cameras?
01:46Fake.
01:47Not even hooked up.
01:48Lucky break for the guy.
01:49Unless he knew.
01:50Just like you knew Fink was working late.
01:51More made plans to meet him here.
01:53Check with the assistant.
01:55He had some fight in him.
01:57Abrasions on the forearms, on the hands.
01:59And then he made a run for the stairs.
02:01Only to be shot in the back.
02:02Twice.
02:03Nine millimeter.
02:06Shooter fired from over here.
02:08Is it possible he might have been meeting somebody?
02:10Or if he was meeting somebody, he didn't tell me.
02:12Excuse me for a minute.
02:13He'd already left by the time I locked up at 8.
02:16Mr. Langley?
02:17I'm Detective Kate Beckett.
02:18How long have you been Mr. Fink's assistant?
02:20Two months.
02:21I'm an art student.
02:22I take night classes at Tisch.
02:23Is that where you were tonight?
02:25Yeah.
02:26Mr. Fink totally supported me being in school.
02:28He let me leave early to make classes.
02:30That's where I was when you guys called.
02:32Do you know if Mr. Fink had any enemies?
02:35Any unhappy clients or artists?
02:38Nothing out of the ordinary.
02:39I can get you a contact list if you like.
02:41Yes, please.
02:44Hey.
02:45We've got a little problem.
02:47Uh-huh.
02:48We dug these two slugs out of the wall.
02:51We're not very fragmented.
02:52See if ballistics can run a match on any of the other shootings in the city.
02:55Sure, but that's not the problem.
02:56We dug these two out of the wall, and Dr. Parrish has another two in our vic here.
03:00So our perp's not a sharpshooter.
03:02But we've only found four bullets, and there are one, two, three, four, five shell casings on the ground.
03:08There's no blood trail leading out of here.
03:10Exactly.
03:10And not a drop of blood outside the spatter from our vic here.
03:13So there's no second victim.
03:15So where's the fifth bullet?
03:20The bullet was made of ice.
03:22Okay, great.
03:23Yeah, send her up.
03:25Vic's wife is on her way up.
03:26Fire is the bullet.
03:27It melts before we can find it.
03:30An ice bullet.
03:32Ew.
03:33An ice bullet?
03:34Are you even paying attention to me?
03:36No!
03:36You aren't saying anything worth paying attention to.
03:39Yo, uniforms are still canvassing, but so far they still haven't found any blood trails outside the gallery.
03:44Can't see as he's re-swept the scene.
03:46Twice.
03:47No sign of a fifth bullet.
03:48I'm telling you, ice bullet.
03:50Nah, bro.
03:51An ice bullet would still make a bullet hole.
03:52You mean ice hole.
03:53Why'd you just call me?
03:54Guys, what else?
03:55We checked Fink's cell phone records.
03:56He got a call at 9.19 p.m., an hour before he was killed from the blocked cell phone
04:01number.
04:01Phone records indicate that the call originated here in New York, but it was an international cell, satellite phone, registered
04:06to Bahrain Cellular.
04:08Well, good luck getting a warrant from the government of Bahrain.
04:10Run down Fink's client and artist list.
04:12See if any of them had international numbers and watch your mouth.
04:18I'm going to go 10 more.
04:19Hey, Ryan.
04:21Got a sec?
04:23Witness?
04:23Not exactly.
04:25Hang here, buddy.
04:26Okay?
04:26Of course.
04:27I found him on the canvas by the art gallery.
04:30The guy's got no wallet, no ID.
04:33Okay, did you ask him his name?
04:35Yeah, I asked him his name.
04:36I asked him where he lived.
04:38You know, but here's the funny part.
04:40The guy says he don't remember.
04:43Did my husband have enemies?
04:44Yeah, he had enemies.
04:46Every artist who couldn't get in his gallery and every artist who was in his gallery.
04:52He'd sell like five pieces and they'd want to know why he didn't sell six.
04:56Mrs. Fink, I know you're upset.
04:58No, what am I supposed to do with these, huh?
04:59I didn't want him.
05:01I did him for him and now he's dead.
05:04Mrs. Fink, can you think of anyone who would hate your husband enough to shoot him in cold blood in
05:09the back?
05:10Rocco.
05:11Rocco?
05:12Was that one of the artists?
05:14His assistant.
05:15I thought Darius was his assistant.
05:17His old assistant.
05:18Victor fired Rocco a few months back.
05:20Why?
05:21He fired that little insect over money.
05:24Boy, did Rocco go crazy making all kinds of threats.
05:26I'm going to get you, Fink.
05:27But you know what?
05:28No.
05:29Rocco, he wasn't even a man.
05:31He was more like a flea.
05:32Victor didn't even think twice about it.
05:34You suppose a flea had a gun?
05:36A tiny gun with vanishing bullets.
05:38Ice bullets and fleas with guns.
05:39Do you have writer's block again?
05:41Stephen King wrote stories of bloodthirsty cars and sold millions of copies.
05:45I figure why be limited by logic?
05:47Rocco Jones, Fink's old assistant.
05:49The wife said that Rocco called and left threatening messages for Fink.
05:52See what you can find.
05:52What?
05:53Hey, what's up with Ryan?
05:56Mugging case.
05:57The guy got hit in the head and can't remember who he is.
05:59Oh, missing bullets are cool.
06:01Amnesia is even cooler.
06:05I'm sure you have better things to do.
06:08I'm sure I do, too.
06:09Huh.
06:11An inhaler.
06:13You're asthmatic.
06:14Awesome.
06:16You should probably hang on to that.
06:18Inhaler, grocery bag, keys.
06:20Are you telling me you don't remember at all what any of that's for?
06:24Yeah.
06:24How ridiculous is that?
06:26Hey.
06:27Hey.
06:29So has he, uh, really got him here?
06:31Yeah.
06:31But apparently my hearing's fine.
06:34Well, that's good.
06:35Richard Castle.
06:37I'd introduce myself, too.
06:39Yeah, we're just going through his pockets, trying to find something that could tell us who he is.
06:43Oh, and apparently I've been reading as well.
06:45Ah, crime and punishment, Dostoevsky.
06:48Classic.
06:49You have excellent taste.
06:51Castle?
07:02Nine millimeter.
07:04I think we just found our fifth bullet.
07:18You know what?
07:19If we got a dog, I could buy him little saddlebags, and then he could carry your books to school,
07:23and you wouldn't have to worry about getting scoliosis.
07:25Conceptually, I'd like a dog as much as you would.
07:27In reality, I'm not seeing the guy whose dishes never make it to the sink bending over to Scoop Poop
07:32in Hudson Park.
07:34I bet I could train him to use a toilet.
07:35Um, Graham, I thought you were sleeping in.
07:40I was, just not in my room.
07:43You know what?
07:44We all share way too much.
07:45Oh, I'm sorry, kiddo.
07:47But my happiness cannot be contained.
07:49I'm going to school.
07:51I'm glad you had a nice date.
07:54I'm assuming from this walk of shame that you and your high school sweetheart, Chet, had a lovely night all
07:59night talking.
08:01Among other things.
08:03It's been a few weeks.
08:04Do I need to sit him down and ask him his intentions?
08:06I am having way too much fun to worry about his intentions.
08:10Okay.
08:10Took me for lovely candlelight dinner.
08:14Horse and carriage ride through Central Park where we watched the sunrise over the same boulder where we shared our
08:20first kiss.
08:23Wait, that's still his make-out spot?
08:25Mother, that's a red flag.
08:26Honey, nothing you can say could spoil this for me.
08:29I haven't felt this way since...
08:32I can't remember when.
08:34Ah, amnesia.
08:35It's going around.
08:36Speaking of which, I'm off.
08:38I'd tell you not to wait up, but clearly there would be no point.
08:43His fingerprints aren't in the system and we don't have any hits on missing persons.
08:46This is crazy.
08:48We actually find a witness to our murder and we don't know who he is and he doesn't remember
08:51what he saw.
08:52Where are we in Rocco?
08:53I think his old assistant.
08:55Uniforms are bringing him in now.
08:56Ballistics confirms that the bullets came from the same gun as the others.
09:00Whatever happened in the gallery, he was there.
09:02Not only was he there, but someone tried to kill him as well.
09:06Good thing he reads.
09:07Good thing he reads Russian literature.
09:08If the guy was a Nicholas Sparks fan, he'd be dead.
09:10Have CSU check the coat for gunpowder residue, blood, fibers.
09:13Maybe it can tell us what happened that night.
09:15And check photo IDs on Fink's artists and clients.
09:18Think he might be one of them?
09:19Girl can dream.
09:24I brought you coffee.
09:27Thank you, Castle.
09:31We all have three different types of memory.
09:33General knowledge, like language and facts, is called semantic memory.
09:37Yours doesn't seem to be affected.
09:38Then there's procedural memory, also often called muscle memory.
09:42That includes any actions or skills that you've repeated over and over and formed neural pathways for.
09:47Like riding a bike.
09:48Now, I know yours is intact because you've been walking around.
09:50So what's the problem, Doc?
09:51The problem is an episodic memory.
09:54That's any experience you've ever had.
09:56Conversations, movies you've seen, the people in your life, even your own name.
10:03So, if I were a betting man, which I have no idea if I am, would I put my money
10:10on my memory coming back or not?
10:14There's no way to tell.
10:16You might eventually get it all back or none of it.
10:19Or anything in between.
10:21Do we know why this would have happened?
10:23He's got a bump on the back of his head.
10:25It's usually a blow to the head coupled with psychological trauma, which leads to amnesia.
10:31Trauma.
10:32You did get shot.
10:33Could that be?
10:34If he believed he was going to die, then sure.
10:38If we took him back to the scene of the crime, could that jog his memory?
10:43Possibly, but amnesia's a tricky condition.
10:46I'd like to take him back to St. Vincent's, run some tests and scans just to be safe.
10:51Of course.
10:51I'll need to ask a few questions first.
10:57Mr. I'm sorry, I don't even know what to call you.
11:00I don't know what to call me either.
11:02You said his procedural memory is intact?
11:05Yes.
11:06May I?
11:07Sure.
11:09Just sign at the bottom.
11:16That's freaky. How the hell do I do that?
11:18That looks like a real signature.
11:19It probably is. You've signed your name so many times.
11:22You form neural pathways, procedural memory.
11:25So he can't remember his name, but he can sign it?
11:27Mysteries of the brain.
11:29It's illegible.
11:30Maybe you're a doctor.
11:32His first initial looks like a J. Does that ring a bell?
11:35No.
11:36Maybe we should just call you J.
11:41J.
11:42It's as good as anything, I guess.
11:47Do you recognize this man?
11:49No. Should I?
11:51His name is Victor Fink.
11:53He owned the art gallery where you were shot.
11:55He was there with me?
11:56He was shot and killed.
12:00God.
12:01What about this man?
12:03Rocco Jones.
12:04He used to work at the gallery.
12:08Guys, I feel so youthless.
12:10Look, I'm really...
12:11I'm really sorry.
12:12I just don't know him.
12:15After all I did for you, Fink, I wasn't just your assistant, man.
12:19I broke the law for you.
12:21You think you could just fire me?
12:23I should kill you, man.
12:24Just pop you right in the back.
12:26Bang!
12:26You're dead.
12:28Whew.
12:29Wow.
12:32So you finally get the courage to do it there, Rocco?
12:35Dude, come on.
12:36I was mad.
12:37I was just blowing off steam.
12:40You said you broke the law for him.
12:43How?
12:48Fine by me, pal.
12:49You have a nice trial.
12:50Come on.
12:51What the hell are you talking about?
12:53You threaten the guy.
12:54Then he turns up dead.
12:56Do the math.
12:59Forgeries.
13:03Fink paid me to paint forgeries of high-end paintings.
13:06I was struggling, man.
13:08I needed the dough.
13:09What did he do with the copies?
13:11Sold them.
13:12Passed them along to the buyer like they were the real thing.
13:15Who did he sell to?
13:19Bahir Haroon.
13:20He's an attache at the Bahrain Consulate.
13:23Bahrain?
13:24So he's the one who talked to Fink an hour before he was murdered.
13:27Maybe he figured out Fink was selling fakes and decided to get even.
13:30Doesn't matter.
13:31The guy has full diplomatic immunity.
13:33Great.
13:35So, I checked all the photo IDs of all of Fink's clients and artists.
13:39Our friend Jay isn't one of them.
13:42And what was he doing at the gallery?
13:44Holloway called from the hospital.
13:45Aside from a minor head bump, Jay's got a clean bill of health.
13:48Well, other than the memory loss.
13:50You know what, why don't you guys grab Jay, take him down to the crime scene, see if that sparks
13:53his memory.
13:54And get a hold of Fink's assistant, Darius.
13:57Tell him to meet you down there with every file he has on Bahir Haroon.
14:08And you're sure I was here?
14:11Take your time, no pressure.
14:17Isn't this supposed to be where I get a headache and flashes of memories start overwhelming me until all the
14:22pieces come together?
14:24Okay, you've seen too many movies.
14:27Yeah, that I can't remember.
14:29Wow, that's very chicken egg.
14:32Welcome to my world.
14:34Weird.
14:36Someone can just lose his mind like that.
14:40Are you sure you don't recognize him?
14:42I don't think so.
14:43But I've only been here a few months.
14:46Anyway, here's everything I could find on Mr. Haroon.
14:50All purchases going back three years.
14:55I still can't believe Fink was trafficking in forgeries.
15:00Haroon's purchases from Fink.
15:01That's dozens of paintings.
15:03Yeah, and according to Fink's old assistant, Rocco, any and all of these could have been forgeries.
15:08This is a Jules Matterson. This is worth a hundred thousand easy.
15:10Yeah, but you only pay Rocco a grand to knock it off.
15:13Fink could have ripped Haroon off for millions.
15:14Who says crime doesn't pay?
15:16If someone took me for that much, I could see putting a bullet in his back.
15:20Well, that explains why Haroon went after Fink, but what about J?
15:23We need to talk to Haroon.
15:24Beckett, I hate diplomatic immunity as much as the next cop.
15:27But as far as you're concerned, forget the guy.
15:30I put in an interview request, now it's in the State Department's hands, period.
15:33Fine, but sir, what about the other victim?
15:35Guy with amnesia. So?
15:37He has nowhere to go tonight.
15:38I'm turning him over to social services. State's problem, not ours.
15:41I know, sir, but he'll probably end up in a homeless shelter.
15:43He's a person of interest and a potential witness.
15:46I would hate to lose him to the system.
15:49Okay.
15:51But my couch is off limits.
15:53Thank you, sir.
15:55It's not the plaza.
15:57But I have snuck many a power nap on this couch over the years.
16:01You should sleep just fine.
16:03I'm grateful not to have to go anywhere with strangers.
16:06It's not a problem.
16:08You know, it's terrifying to think that someone actually tried to kill me and...
16:12I don't know who it was.
16:14Or why.
16:15And they're still out there.
16:17That's why we're gonna catch the bastard.
16:19But to do that, we need to find out who you are.
16:22So we're gonna release your photograph to the media tomorrow morning.
16:26What if nobody recognizes it?
16:28I'm sure someone will.
16:30But what if no one does and I don't remember?
16:34Then who am I?
16:39I promise you we won't give up on you.
16:46My science teacher says that chocolate contains chemicals that are proven to relieve depression.
16:51Well, that's good, but I prefer grape, aged bottled, and corked.
16:56You're having an ice cream tasting and no one called, texted, or tweeted?
17:00Ryan broke it off with chat, so I suggested sugar therapy.
17:04What happened to Sunrise in Central Cork?
17:06Oh.
17:07Who am I kidding? It's a fairy tale.
17:08And what woman doesn't want a fairy tale?
17:11He's not who I thought he was.
17:13How so?
17:14A million different little things, you know?
17:15Doesn't drive, he's skinny.
17:17Oh, and he has this laugh like,
17:19I can't even do it, it's like a honking goose kind of...
17:22These are sitcom reasons for breaking up.
17:25This morning you were in love. What possibly could have happened?
17:28Dad back off.
17:29The spark died.
17:31She's obviously reconsidered.
17:33That's right.
17:34And now we're going through the five flavors of grieving.
17:37Oh.
17:38Is the first stage accepting the ice cream?
17:41Exactly.
17:42Then I'm in.
17:52Hey, good morning.
17:54Hey. How was he last night?
17:56He slept like a rock.
17:57Doc Holloway stopped by this morning to give him a cognitive abilities test.
18:01Scored through the roof on the quantitative part.
18:03He's good at math. Maybe he was an engineer in accounting or financing.
18:07Or just good at math.
18:09Castle's testing his drawing abilities.
18:10See if he's an artist.
18:12Maybe he's trying to convince Fink to show his work.
18:14I suppose we should be thankful he didn't offer to pose nude.
18:16Yeah, thanks for that.
18:18Hey, any idea if we're going to get to talk to that attache, Harun?
18:21Radio silence.
18:23We got an IDJ.
18:24Yeah.
18:26Speak of the devil.
18:27Yeah, they've been showing it all morning.
18:29Any calls yet?
18:30No.
18:31Well, until we figure out who he is, we've got nothing.
18:35So what's the verdict?
18:42Wow.
18:43He really captured his soul.
18:46Okay. So, you're not an artist. I'm sure you have many other talents.
18:50Just not a talent for remembering them.
18:52Oh, that's him.
18:53Oh no, that's him!
18:55Oh, thank God!
18:56Can I help you?
18:56I think we're about to find out who you are.
18:58Do you recognize her?
18:59Yes, it's him.
18:59No.
19:00Then again, I don't recognize myself in the mirror.
19:02Go ahead, ma'am.
19:02Thanks.
19:03Oh, Joe!
19:04Oh my God!
19:07Tori Westchester.
19:08Wife.
19:09I was so scared I lost you.
19:12Oh, sweetie.
19:14So it's true.
19:16You really don't remember anything?
19:18He's suffering from amnesia.
19:19Yeah.
19:19I knew something was wrong.
19:21I knew it.
19:22Jay, are you crying?
19:24I think I am.
19:27Do you feel a connection?
19:30Yeah.
19:31It's actually pretty overwhelming.
19:34Of course it is, baby.
19:35I love you so much.
19:37We will get through this, whatever it takes.
19:41Miss Westchester, how long have the two of you been married?
19:43Two years.
19:44This past October.
19:46And you said his name was Joel?
19:47Joel Westchester.
19:49Oh, honey.
19:50Look at you.
19:52You do remember me.
19:59Love conquers all.
20:00Oh, it's all gonna be fine.
20:02Are you okay?
20:03What is it?
20:04What is it, my darling?
20:05I think he's having an asthma attack.
20:07You have an inhaler in your pocket.
20:08Get it.
20:13Mrs. Westchester, do you have cats?
20:16Eight.
20:17Like John and Kate.
20:19I think Joel here is allergic to cats.
20:22Really?
20:24Mrs. Westchester, you're not really married to him.
20:26Are you?
20:29I could be.
20:30I so could be.
20:32Why the hell shouldn't I be?
20:34She's been in and out of mental facilities for more than ten years.
20:38Every personality disorder in the book.
20:40Sorry about that.
20:41Just another contestant on who wants to marry an amnesiac?
20:44Beckett.
20:45Your attache, Mr. Haroon.
20:46He's on his way down.
20:47He agreed to talk.
20:53He showed up voluntarily?
20:55He wants to stay in control.
20:56This could be our only shot.
20:57Let's make sure that Haroon gets a good look at our friend Jay.
21:00Inadverting, of course.
21:00If Haroon thinks that he killed Jay, then his reaction could tell us everything we need
21:04to know.
21:05Let's go.
21:09Mr. Haroon, you were a client of Mr. Fink's?
21:11That's correct.
21:13You bought a significant number of works from him.
21:15Yes.
21:16Well, we believe that many of those works were forgeries.
21:19That's correct.
21:20So you're saying that you knew they were fakes?
21:23Of course I knew.
21:24And you bought them anyway?
21:25I have many friends back home whose wives are, how shall we say, demanding.
21:31And what do demanding wives have to do with any of this?
21:34Well, we all know that the fairer sex can be shallow.
21:38Not you, of course, Detective.
21:40A smart, liberated American woman.
21:42But my friend's wives, they want a bag that says Gucci.
21:47They don't care who made the bag as long as it has that signature.
21:51And it's the same with paintings.
21:53They're more appreciative of the signature than of the work itself.
21:57And my friends don't always want to spend top dollar on authentic pieces.
22:01So Victor would commission a copy.
22:03My friends save money.
22:04I get rich.
22:05And the wives...
22:06Hey, look to your left.
22:08Just a drop.
22:09Everyone's happy.
22:10Yeah.
22:11Yeah.
22:12So you only bought fakes from Fink?
22:15No.
22:15He would also source originals for those husbands with taste.
22:20I was happy to...
22:20You look familiar.
22:21...originals, pay less, work with everyone wanting...
22:23No.
22:24Sorry.
22:25The night that Mr. Fink was murdered, you called him not long before he was killed.
22:29That's correct, Detective.
22:30He told me to come by, that he had a painting for me.
22:33I showed up around 9.45, but he sent me away.
22:36Sent you away?
22:37Yes.
22:38He was arguing with a man.
22:39About what?
22:41I have no idea.
22:42I respected his wishes and went for dinner at Nobu.
22:45Do you think you could describe this man?
22:48Please.
22:50Must we continue with this ridiculous charade when we both know he is standing right there?
23:00Now, if that is all...
23:02Mr. Haroon, I'm not quite done yet.
23:04Ah, but I am.
23:08Have a nice day.
23:12Thanks.
23:13For a guy with diplomatic immunity?
23:15He wasn't very diplomatic.
23:16Arun's hiding behind his immunity.
23:18He knows more than he's saying.
23:19Maybe, but his alibi is good.
23:21Nobu has him on security video entering at 9.55 PM, 19 minutes before the 911 call about shots fired.
23:28He's not our guy.
23:29Well, just because he didn't pull the trigger doesn't mean he wasn't involved.
23:32And just because Jay was shot doesn't mean he wasn't into something shady.
23:34Could be the reason he was shot.
23:36Arun said he saw Jay arguing with Fink.
23:39We need to figure out why Jay was at the gallery.
23:41And we can't do that if we don't know who the hell he is.
23:43We've been through this.
23:45It's just a bunch of junk.
23:45But if we take a look at everything we know about him collectively, maybe a picture will emerge.
23:52Nothing distinctive about these keys.
23:54Yeah, and that plastic bag really narrows it down.
23:56Okay, he's got asthma.
23:58He's allergic to cats.
23:59He reads.
24:00And he's good at math and he can't draw.
24:02Put it together, he's your average asthmatic math elite with a lot of crap in his pockets.
24:06Detective.
24:09From Laney, it's the forensics report on his coat.
24:11Maybe his driver's license was sewn into the lining.
24:15Gunpowder residue.
24:16So he was shot at close range.
24:18Mm-hmm.
24:18Coffee stains, sugar granules, traces of milk.
24:20We know how he takes his coffee.
24:22Animal hairs.
24:23Not cat hairs.
24:24How could I have missed this?
24:26Missed what?
24:27Do you know what this is?
24:28Yeah, it's a grocery bag.
24:29No, it's not just a grocery bag.
24:31It's the bag that's gonna tell us exactly who Jay is.
24:37Why are you dragging me back to the art gallery?
24:40Not to the art gallery, to the street.
24:42Ah, it's gone.
24:43What's gone?
24:43The dog.
24:44That's why he had the bag, to clean up after his dog.
24:46How do you know it was his dog?
24:47Well, why else would he have a bag?
24:49Why else would there be a dog tied up outside a commercial building after midnight?
24:52Maybe someone stole it.
24:55Give me animal control.
24:56All the canines with ID tags we picked up in the last 24.
25:00Mostly their owners lost them accidentally and are relieved when we called.
25:04Castle.
25:07Who's a good girl?
25:09That one's from 148 West 26th.
25:11That's Frank's gallery.
25:12Good girl.
25:14Lucy.
25:15Your name is Jeremy Presswick.
25:17We checked it against your DMV photo and it's a positive ID.
25:20Jeremy Presswick.
25:21You are 34 years old and you live at 82 Warren Street in Tribeca.
25:26You don't really have any family.
25:28Your parents passed away a few years ago and you don't have any siblings.
25:32But we did manage to get a hold of your ex-wife, Emma Carnes.
25:36Ex-wife?
25:37Uh-huh.
25:38I'm divorced?
25:39Yeah.
25:40Sorry.
25:41Your ex sounded pretty concerned.
25:45And we figured that would be the fastest way of putting together the details.
25:48Which would be great for you and for our investigation.
25:52If you think it'll help.
25:58Next wife that I can't remember.
26:00Hey.
26:01Some men would consider you lucky.
26:05Here you go.
26:06Thanks.
26:12Hello, Jeremy.
26:14Hey.
26:15Thank you for coming.
26:16I appreciate it.
26:17Sure.
26:19So we're divorced.
26:23Yeah.
26:25Must be weird coming here to try to help me out, huh?
26:29A little.
26:31Please take a seat.
26:36So what happened to him?
26:39That's what we are trying to figure out.
26:41Is there anything you can tell us about Jeremy?
26:43Well, like what?
26:44Like, uh, where he works.
26:47Well, as far as I know, he doesn't anymore.
26:50Okay, this is weird with you sitting right there.
26:53Tell me about it.
26:56You have a PhD in economics from Wharton.
26:59Uh, you had a consulting business in channel economics and strategy.
27:05You're smart.
27:07Like, crazy smart.
27:09Had a business?
27:10Yeah.
27:11Yeah, yeah.
27:12He sold it last year.
27:13Do you know why?
27:14No.
27:15I thought it was weird.
27:16He loved the business.
27:17Why'd we split up?
27:21Wow.
27:23I've ranted for hours to girlfriends about that.
27:26I'm guessing I don't come off so well in that rant.
27:30You were a jerk.
27:32Uh-uh.
27:35Yeah, but so was I.
27:37I mean, the truth is we probably got married too young.
27:44Look, I'm sorry that I don't recognize you.
27:48But you seem incredibly nice and you're gorgeous.
27:50And I'm certain that it was entirely my fault that our marriage fell apart.
27:54See that?
27:55That's the guy I fell in love with.
27:59Funny, sweet, self-deprecating.
28:01Hey.
28:03Do you know what Jeremy had been doing with himself recently?
28:06As far as I know, he was dating the youngest, hottest women he could find
28:09and not bothering to put the toilet seat down.
28:14And do you have any idea what he might have been doing at the Victor Fink gallery in Chelsea?
28:18No, I'm sorry, but we haven't even spoken in almost a year.
28:22Um, well, we're on our way to Jeremy's apartment to see if it sparks anything.
28:26Would you mind coming along?
28:27You might be able to put things in some context.
28:40Look familiar?
28:42Nope.
28:44You can say it.
28:45My worst witness ever.
28:47Now you're doing fine.
28:49Hmm.
28:52A wallet.
28:53Well, I don't think you were mugged.
28:56Do you mind if I poke around?
28:58Open some drawers?
28:59Mi casa que no recuerdo es tu casa.
29:01Hey, look at that.
29:03Rocking the Spanish.
29:04Well, we did junior year in Madrid.
29:07Sounds nice.
29:08Well, here's the rest of your Russian literature collection.
29:12You are a very ambitious reader, Mr. Presswick.
29:15You always wanted more time to read.
29:17I guess I'm gonna have to start over now.
29:19Uh, it's not such a bad thing.
29:21What I wouldn't give to read The Cask of a Montalado for the first time.
29:25Or any Stephen King.
29:27Ah!
29:27Silver lining.
29:28You get to read all my books for the first time.
29:30Again.
29:33Anything?
29:35It's pretty sparse.
29:37Like a guy who spent a lot of time alone.
29:39Yeah, I thought you'd have more of a slick pad,
29:42done up with more stuff.
29:44Hey.
29:45Taglia.
29:46This is a pretty pricey painting.
29:47Emma, do you know if Jeremy bought that painting at a gallery in the city?
29:52No.
29:53We bought that together on our honeymoon in Siena.
29:56Can't believe you still have it.
29:58Why?
29:59Well, part of the divorce settlement was to sell it and split the cash.
30:03It appraised for over 200 grand.
30:05You sent me my half.
30:07It's funny.
30:09There's something about it that's so familiar.
30:12Or maybe I just like it.
30:14Castle?
30:21It's a nine millimeter.
30:26Five bullets missing.
30:35So, ballistics confirmed that the gun found at Jeremy's apartment was the same one that was used to kill Fink,
30:40and we just need to know if it's possible that Jeremy was a shooter.
30:44CSU did find gun residue on his coat.
30:47Well, that just means that he was shot at close range.
30:49Like if Jeremy were holding the gun, struggled with Fink, Fink managed to turn the gun around and it went
30:56off?
30:56Well, these abrasions on Fink's wrists are certainly consistent with that.
31:00Well, then why would he have left the gun in his apartment?
31:02Doc Holloway said he was probably in a fugue state, like sleepwalking.
31:05He could have dropped the gun off and then went back out again.
31:09Okay, am I missing something? I thought you were supposed to be happy after you caught the killer.
31:15Why'd I do it?
31:18We don't know why.
31:20You'll be appointed a lawyer. I know that Emma wants to help hire someone and I don't think money will
31:24be an issue.
31:27Well, thank you.
31:29I don't know why you're thanking me, Mr. Prezik. We just arrested you for murder.
31:33Yeah, well, it's not your fault.
31:35You guys have been nothing but incredibly nice.
31:38To a babbling idiot who thought he was a victim. It's like I tricked you.
31:42Good luck, Jeremy.
31:51Hey, if you figure it out, would you let me know?
31:55Of course.
31:57I just think it'd be easier knowing why.
32:20The guy's guilty of a murder he can't remember.
32:24It just sucks.
32:26I mean, if you're gonna kill someone, get caught, spend the rest of your life in prison,
32:30at least you have the satisfaction of knowing why you did it.
32:33Hatred, revenge, hell, maybe even cut you off on the highway, but...
32:37Jeremy won't even have that, even if we do find motive, because he won't remember why it meant anything to
32:42him.
32:44I'm with you, Castle. It sucks.
32:48So, what next?
32:49We, uh, submit the paperwork to the DA.
32:52But the DA will need motive, right?
32:53No. Evidence speaks. Smoking gun.
32:58Don't you wanna know why he did it?
33:00Yeah, but the truth is, is that we don't need it.
33:02The DA doesn't need it.
33:05But you and me?
33:08I know I couldn't sleep last night, could you?
33:13There's gotta be an answer here.
33:15Something in his life that makes it all make sense.
33:22Hans, stop!
33:25Oh, that gets the heart rate going.
33:26Mrs. Carnes, what are you doing here?
33:29Getting Lucy's things.
33:32Prescription.
33:34Guess I have custody now.
33:36I'm sorry to surprise you.
33:38We didn't know you'd be here.
33:43You okay?
33:45Yeah.
33:46I guess I just thought for half a second that this would be a bizarre second chance for Jer and
33:52me.
33:52Stupid, right?
33:53No, it's not stupid.
33:55And to find out that he's a murderer...
33:58When I saw him again, I...
34:01All those years of petty arguments that tore us apart didn't seem to matter.
34:05It was like we first met.
34:07You know, I felt that thing.
34:10And then if we came here and I saw that he didn't sell it, and I thought maybe he still
34:16had feelings for me too.
34:17Do you mean the painting that the two of you bought on your honeymoon?
34:20We didn't buy it because we wanted to.
34:22We had to.
34:23We were in the artist's studio in Siena.
34:27And Jeremy picked it up off the easel.
34:30He was always goofing around.
34:32The artist went crazy.
34:34It was still drying.
34:35We laughed for a week about our little love smudge.
34:38And then when I saw that he didn't sell it, I thought...
34:42Maybe...
34:45But I was kidding myself.
34:47What do you mean?
34:49No thumbprint.
34:50It should be right here.
34:52He sold ours, this one's just a copy.
34:54Miss Carnes, are you sure?
34:56Of course I'm sure.
34:58It's a fake.
34:59We know who dealt in fakes.
35:02That's gotta be Jeremy's connection to Fink.
35:04That's gotta be why Jeremy was at the gallery.
35:06And if Jeremy and Fink were arguing like Haroun said, maybe it was over the original.
35:10And if that's a fake, then where is the original?
35:12I'll return two weeks. Absolutely.
35:15And, uh, careful with that one.
35:18Yes?
35:19Yes, thank you.
35:20See you soon.
35:20See you soon.
35:22Leaving us so soon, Mr. Haroun.
35:24Oh, what now? I have a plane to catch.
35:27Make any interesting art acquisitions on this trip?
35:30Actually, yes.
35:31Mind if we take a look?
35:32I'm sorry, I just don't have the time.
35:34Make time.
35:34What part of diplomatic immunity are you not clear on?
35:39See, every time you say something like that, it makes me think that you have something to hide.
35:44It's too bad that you will never find out.
35:48License and registration, please.
35:50What? Why?
35:51You are double parked.
35:53This is New York, everyone double parked.
35:55Is he resisting arrest?
35:56I believe so.
35:58Step over here.
35:59Oh.
36:00We're gonna have to search your car.
36:03You have no right to do this.
36:05I don't see any diplomatic plates.
36:08And immunity doesn't extend to a car service.
36:20Mr. Haroun, this can go one of two ways.
36:22You can either cooperate and tell me what I need to know,
36:25or I can call the State Department and inform them that you have a piece of artwork
36:28that's at the center of our murder investigation.
36:30And the last I checked, the New York tabloids could give a rat's ass about your diplomatic status.
36:35They'll just print your photograph with a headline that says diplomatic douchebag.
36:38Fine.
36:40What would you like to know?
36:41There's a fake version of this painting found in one of our shooting victims' apartments.
36:46Can you tell us how it got there?
36:47How would I know this?
36:48Because the fake painting is where the real painting used to be,
36:51and now you have the real painting.
36:52All I know is that I asked Fink to acquire it for a client of mine.
36:57When he said he had it, I assumed he'd track down the owner and made a deal.
37:02But when I went to the gallery that evening, he sent me away.
37:05Just like I told you.
37:07That's a great story, Mr. Haroun.
37:08But if Fink sent you away empty-handed, why do you have the painting?
37:12Because I got a call from a man this morning that said he had it for a price.
37:17Who was it?
37:18It was Fink's new assistant, Darius.
37:22This is crazy.
37:23I told you already, I was in class when Mr. Fink was killed.
37:27Nobody remembers seeing you there.
37:29I sat in the back.
37:30The naughty kids always do.
37:31You were at the gallery the night that Jeremy confronted Fink about the painting.
37:35Listen.
37:37There's obviously been some kind of misunderstanding.
37:39Was this a misunderstanding as well?
37:44It's a signed statement from the super at Presswick's building,
37:47admitting that he took a $1,000 bribe from you to allow you into Jeremy's apartment
37:51so that you could switch out the paintings.
37:54I'm sorry.
37:55Should have come clean from the start.
37:59Fink wanted the painting.
38:01He told me to buy it from Presswick, but the guy wouldn't sell.
38:04So Fink had me paint a Fink.
38:08And, yeah, I-I brought the super to...
38:12switch it with the real thing.
38:15It was stupid, but...
38:17Fink threatened to fire me if I didn't.
38:18It was all you, Darius.
38:21You switched out the paintings.
38:22You pocketed the money that Fink gave you to buy it.
38:25It was Fink.
38:26He manipulated me.
38:28Now, that...
38:29is...
38:30just a lie.
38:31And you know what else is a lie?
38:34Your name...
38:36Darius Langley is your roommate.
38:38Pretty smart.
38:39Using his identity to land a job at the gallery.
38:42Though I guess it'd be pretty tough to get hired with...
38:44two felony counts of counterfeiting though, isn't it, Georgia?
38:48You've got quite a rap sheet, Mr. Heller.
38:50Hmm.
38:52One more strike, you go away for a long time.
38:54Which is why you couldn't afford Presswick calling the cops...
38:57when he found out the truth.
38:58So you shot him.
39:00And then when he went down, you shot Fink as well.
39:04Think you're gonna pin this murder on me?
39:08No way.
39:09You don't got Jack.
39:12Read carefully.
39:14You bribed the super...
39:15twice.
39:17And the second time was four hours after detectives Ryan and Esposito...
39:21brought Presswick to the gallery and you realized that he had lost his memory.
39:26You planted the gun.
39:28Swing and a miss.
39:30Strike three.
39:31You're out.
39:36Oh.
39:37It's a beaut.
39:38Isn't it?
39:39I especially love the fingerprint.
39:41Me too.
39:42Even if I can't remember, it still...
39:44somehow feels a part of me.
39:50Hey, Jer.
39:52Ready to rock?
39:54Thanks, Raquel.
39:55You remember Lucy?
39:58She certainly remembers you.
40:02Hey, thanks guys.
40:03You made getting arrested for murder really not so bad.
40:09So, are you two gonna...
40:11Castle?
40:12It's okay.
40:14The answer is, who knows?
40:15I like him and he likes me and right now that's enough.
40:18We'll see ya.
40:19I guess if I ever lose my memory again, I'll know where to come.
40:23I...
40:25Thanks.
40:28Thanks again for coming.
40:29Of course.
40:31One of them has 15 years of baggage, marriage, divorce.
40:35The other's on a first date.
40:37How long do you think that'll last?
40:38Hopefully for a long time.
40:40Why, Detective Beckett, I had no idea you were a romantic.
40:43I was asleep with a gun.
40:45Bet you didn't know that either.
40:47How are you, Castle?
40:48How long do you think it'll last?
40:50Well, I guess it's just the writer and me, but...
40:52I'm hoping for a happy ending.
40:55Ooh, well, well, well.
40:57Look who's doing the walk of shame now.
40:59I was with Beckett.
41:01Really?
41:02Uh, wrapping up a case.
41:04Ah.
41:04Well, you should kiss that girl while you're both young.
41:09What's going on with you? What do you got there?
41:11Oh, it's from Chet. Isn't it romantic?
41:15Chet sent you a dead flower?
41:17It is the most romantic thing that anyone has ever done for me.
41:20I've been up all night, so I might be a little slow.
41:23Well, it's the boutonniere I gave him. Prom night.
41:26He saved it, tucked it into a yearbook, and he sent it over last night with a note...
41:33...saying...
41:34...would I give...
41:36...give him a second chance.
41:40Well, there's a lot of that going around these days.
41:44And I'm scared.
41:46I mean, what if it doesn't work out?
41:48What if it does?
41:52That's the cost of living.
41:55I just don't want to ruin this.
41:58Ah.
42:01This...
42:01...is dead.
42:04You are not.
42:06Time to start making some new memories.
42:10Boy, how did you get so smart?
42:12It must be my dad.
42:13You do.
42:15Dad.
