00:20Oh my god, this is quite possibly the worst coffee I've ever tasted.
00:26It's actually kind of fascinating.
00:27It tastes like a...
00:31It tastes like a monkey peed and battery acid.
00:33Try some.
00:35Don't you have a book coming out today or something?
00:37Yeah, so?
00:38So, you are watching me do paperwork.
00:41It's creepy.
00:42Did you have somewhere else to be?
00:44I like it here.
00:48Oh my gosh, I get it.
00:50You're hiding.
00:51Your book is coming out today and you are hiding.
00:53No, hiding would be building a fortress out of my comforter and then downing a fifth of scotch,
00:57but apparently that's considered unhealthy.
00:59I thought that you don't care what people think.
01:01I don't.
01:02Much.
01:08Beckett.
01:09Yeah, right.
01:10I'm on my way.
01:13Dead body?
01:14Yes.
01:17I said it up.
01:19This the guy?
01:20You're hurt, huh?
01:21Oh, everyone's hurt.
01:22You really base your next character on Detective Beckett?
01:25Every artist needs a muse.
01:28Call me a muse again and I will break both your legs.
01:30Okay?
01:31Okay.
01:31Detective Beckett.
01:33Jack Lifford and Hall Morrison.
01:34While moving in, they see a rolled up rug sticking out of a dumpster.
01:39They figure it's a lucky day.
01:41They bring it home only to find there's a prize inside.
01:43Dead guy in a rug.
01:45Naturally, we thought of you.
01:46Yeah?
01:4738 caliber, close range.
01:49Killed him instantly.
01:50You got an ID?
01:51No, pockets were empty.
01:53No wallet, no keys, no jewelry.
01:54We figure a robbery gone wrong.
01:56This wasn't a robbery.
01:59I robbed someone, I'm not going to stick around and wrap him up, throw him away.
02:02Blood spatter indicates he was standing near the rug when he was shot.
02:05Where did they find this?
02:06East 3rd, about two blocks away.
02:09All right, let's get CSU on the rug.
02:11Fibers, blood, identifying marks.
02:13And let's get a team down in the dumpster, see if they can dig anything else up.
02:16Lainey, you do what you can about an ID.
02:18Got it.
02:18Don't bother.
02:21I know who he is.
02:29You got something?
02:30Jeff Warren, 48, two terms of city council member.
02:33Friend of yours?
02:34I recognize him from the bus as he's running for re-election.
02:36Press is going to be all over this.
02:37Does he have a family?
02:38Yeah.
02:39Well, let's try to notify him before the jackals do.
02:44Mrs. Warren, I know this is difficult, but when was the last time you heard from your
02:47husband?
02:49I called him last night around 11.
02:52He was finishing up a fundraiser and heading back to the office.
02:56Did he always work that late?
02:58During elections.
02:59He believed that it was a politician's obligation to get the people's work done, even while running
03:04for office.
03:06And when he didn't come home?
03:09Well, it wasn't unusual for him to crash on his couch instead of coming home, but when
03:18Frank called this morning...
03:19Frank?
03:21Frank Nesbitt, Jeff's campaign manager.
03:24How did your husband sound last night?
03:27I mean...
03:28Did he seem troubled, like there was something wrong?
03:32No, he seemed happy.
03:36It doesn't make any sense.
03:39He's a good man, and he's a good father, and every day he would go out there and try
03:43to make the city a better place every day.
03:46And for him to die like this...
03:51What am I supposed to tell my girls?
04:03You okay?
04:05Yeah.
04:06Why?
04:07Can't be easy breaking that kind of news.
04:11Yeah.
04:11Well, thanks for not making it a joke.
04:15Yeah, I'm a wise ass, not a jackass.
04:18I didn't know there was a difference.
04:21So, what's your next move?
04:23Last person to see him alive?
04:25Establish a timeline?
04:26Grab a donut?
04:27More really bad coffee?
04:28This, um, female detective of yours, exactly how much will she be based on me?
04:33Well, she's not too bright and kind of slutty.
04:36Right, so was that wise ass or jackass?
04:38Actually, that was jackass.
04:39Hmm.
04:39No, honestly, you're not going to have anything to be embarrassed about.
04:41She's going to be, she's going to be really smart, very savvy, haunting good looks, really
04:50good at her job, and kind of slutty.
04:54Castle.
04:55I should have read you that.
04:57Hello?
04:58Oh, sweetheart.
04:59Oh, mother, slow down.
05:00What's wrong?
05:00I just wanted to make sure you were all right.
05:03Why wouldn't I be all right?
05:04No one is buying your book.
05:07What are you talking about?
05:08I am standing in the middle of the bookstore, and no one is buying your book.
05:11Okay, what are you doing in a bookstore?
05:14I was hungry, I came in for a pastry.
05:17And there they were, all your books just sitting there.
05:21Well, they only just went on sale two hours ago.
05:24What did you expect, a line of the door?
05:25There was one for the last Harry Potter.
05:28Yes, well, uh, Derek Storm is not Harry Potter.
05:31Clearly.
05:35No one's bought one.
05:37Hang on, kiddo, hang on.
05:43No.
05:47You okay?
05:48Yeah.
05:54I don't care if it was free.
05:55Even if you pay me, I'm still not going to take that road.
05:58You tell me you lived in New York your whole life, and you never scored a piece of roadkill.
06:02Roadkill?
06:03It's an accepted practice, bro.
06:04You're done with your old stuff, you leave it on the street for those less fortunate.
06:08Artists, students, former hedge fund managers.
06:11It's trickle-down economics at its finest.
06:13Yeah, well, I prefer not to be trickle-down.
06:16You know that red couch I have?
06:17One you like so much?
06:19Don't you say it, bro.
06:2054th and Lex.
06:23That's gross.
06:24Gross.
06:25We are never playing Madden at your place again.
06:28Detective.
06:29Yeah.
06:31You just got in there.
06:43Jeff, we're going.
06:44Nice work, Scott.
06:48Yeah.
06:49Esposito.
06:49No, run Ludd's on his phone.
06:50See if he talked to anyone other than his wife.
06:53They found the wallet.
06:54Money and credit cards were gone.
06:56Anything from the neighbors?
06:57The usual, wailing cats, loud TVs, car alarms.
07:01No shots, though, and no blood spatter.
07:03A real robber would have left the wallet where he killed the guy, not where he moved him.
07:06It's a sloppy cover-up, but it does tell us one thing.
07:09This was premeditated.
07:15Excuse me.
07:17Detective Kate Beckett, NYPD.
07:18We're looking for Frank Nesbitt.
07:20Horn's campaign manager.
07:22Ryan, could you give us a minute?
07:24Sure.
07:25We've called in grief counselors for the kids.
07:28I know it's a cliché, but he meant a lot to all of us.
07:33Well, it sounds like he was more than just a candidate.
07:34We were friends.
07:35We wanted to change the world.
07:37Were you with him last night?
07:39Yeah, until about, uh, I don't know, 11.
07:42I offered to share a taxi, but he wanted to walk.
07:44Where was the fundraiser?
07:46Marconi's.
07:4783rd off Broadway.
07:48It's just a dozen blocks from here.
07:50Yeah.
07:51Mr. Horn's body was found all the way downtown.
07:54Did he have any enemies?
07:55He was a politician.
07:57What about his opponent?
07:58It's hard to imagine Jason Bollinger doing something like this.
08:01He is eight points up in the polls.
08:03Did Horn or the campaign receive any threats recently?
08:07Just your usual crackpost, nothing special.
08:09Unless you count hate mail from Calvin Creason.
08:12Creason, the hotel and club owner?
08:15Owns, uh, Axiom in the Soho Majestic.
08:17Even ran Club Tasty back in the day.
08:19There was this one time.
08:22Story for another time.
08:22What did Horn do?
08:23Crack down on the ecstasy dealers?
08:24Creason bought that old meatpacking warehouse on the Lower East Side.
08:28He wanted to turn into his next hip hotspot.
08:30300 rooms, sake bar, nightclub.
08:32Neighbors didn't want a bunch of drunken B&Ters running through the streets, so Horn killed it in committee.
08:37Leaving Creason with millions of dollars of now worthless real estate.
08:41Mm-hmm.
08:41Creason had a beef with Horn.
08:43It doesn't mean he killed him.
08:44It doesn't mean he didn't.
08:46Excuse me.
08:54You want to know what I did when I found out that he was dead?
08:57I ordered myself an ice-cold bottle of Chris and toasted the sweetness of the universe, okay?
09:02That's pretty callous, Mr. Creason.
09:04Listen, what do I care?
09:05What do I care?
09:06This guy was such a putz, acting like another hotel going up.
09:09That was going to be the end of the world.
09:11You have any idea what one of my properties does for the local economy?
09:14This city should be paying me, not stopping me.
09:16So I guess we could say you had motive.
09:18Who else?
09:19You a cop?
09:20I say we arrested.
09:21Castle.
09:22Please, you got nothing here.
09:24If I was going to go around killing everybody that ever got in my way, there would be bodies
09:27stacked higher than the Chrysler building.
09:29I don't need to kill anyone to bury them.
09:32Where were you last night?
09:33I was at my club in Salem.
09:34Anybody see you?
09:37Detective, when I go out, everybody sees me.
09:41Thank you very much, Mr. Creason.
09:44Sure.
09:47I want to take a shower.
09:49Where to next?
09:50To check his alibi.
09:52Actually, that may not be necessary.
09:56Why not?
09:59Castle, what are you doing?
10:01Promise not to hate me.
10:02I already hate you.
10:03Fair enough.
10:04This morning, with the body, I took a couple of pictures.
10:06You took photos of my crime scene?
10:09Before you get mad, I emailed a couple of them to a friend of mine.
10:11You emailed them to a friend?
10:13Well, not exactly a friend.
10:14She's my interior decorator, but then we slept together, so I don't really know what she
10:17is now.
10:18What the hell were you thinking?
10:19I know, right?
10:19You work together, you think it'll be fun, but then it always makes things weird.
10:23It's a real cautionary tale.
10:26I'm talking about the photographs of the body.
10:28What?
10:29No.
10:30I didn't send her pictures of the body.
10:32I sent her pictures of the rug.
10:34I thought maybe she might be able to tell me where it came from.
10:36And guess what?
10:38She did.
10:43That's the rug.
10:47That's the same rug.
10:51Don't gloat, okay?
10:53Because it's really unattractive.
10:56Now can we arrest her?
11:05I feel you, man.
11:07Yeah, okay.
11:08He didn't arrive at the club until after midnight.
11:10So what do we do now?
11:11Wait for his lawyer to show up?
11:12Actually, we follow other leads to something that we call working.
11:15Other leads?
11:16Good, since we both know he didn't do it.
11:17Creason?
11:18What makes you think he didn't do it?
11:19Isn't it obvious?
11:20All the evidence points to him.
11:21And that somehow makes him not guilty.
11:23He's totally the red herring.
11:24The red herring?
11:25An innocent character who appears guilty.
11:28I know what a red herring is, Castle.
11:30It's a literary device used in literature.
11:32In real life, we don't dismiss a suspect just because he appears too guilty.
11:36Besides, I thought you wanted to arrest him.
11:39Yeah, because he's a tool, not because he's guilty.
11:42That guy's a multimillionaire.
11:43He's not going to be dumb enough to wrap a dead body up in his own rug.
11:45It doesn't matter.
11:46Those rugs were custom designed for Creason's hotel, so we know he's connected.
11:50Hey, Esposito.
11:51Yeah?
11:51See what you can find on that rug, if one went missing, what room it's from, and maybe
11:55who had access.
11:56Yeah.
11:58Thanks.
11:58Road trip.
12:03You're very good at bossing men around.
12:07I've noticed.
12:08You're telling me that it's just a coincidence that a man whose murder you celebrated by drinking
12:12champagne was found wrapped in a rug from your hotel?
12:15There are identical rugs in every room of the Axiom.
12:18You can't expect my client to be responsible for their whereabouts.
12:20Sure I can.
12:21Until a jury tells me otherwise.
12:23Ah, you are wasting my time.
12:27Did I go over?
12:27I told you exactly what I was doing last night.
12:29Right.
12:29You were at the club.
12:30They said that you made quite the entrance, a supermodel on each arm.
12:34Uh, yeah, you know, last time I checked, um, it's not a crime, is it?
12:39No.
12:40But you know what it is?
12:42Memorable.
12:43Witnesses don't place you at the club until one in the morning.
12:46And Horn was murdered somewhere between 11 and 12.
12:49Here it comes.
12:50Here it comes, A.
12:51So where were you between 11 and 12, Mr. Creason?
12:54Booyah.
12:56I was asleep.
12:58Asleep?
12:58You were lame!
13:00You were so lame!
13:01You were so lame!
13:01You were so lame!
13:02You were so lame!
13:02You were so lame!
13:03Lama!
13:06It's a well-known fact that Mr. Creason sleeps from 6 p.m. to midnight in order to maintain
13:10a late-night presence at his club.
13:12Did anyone witness you sleeping between the hours of 11 and 12 last night, Mr. Creason?
13:17Creason.
13:17Hold on one sec.
13:20No.
13:22So you had motive and opportunity.
13:23Wait, wait, wait, wait!
13:24Hold on one sec!
13:25Hold on!
13:27I didn't kill him.
13:27I had no reason to.
13:28He was in your way.
13:29Yeah, but for long.
13:35I knew he was going to lose the election, okay?
13:36So I didn't have to kill him.
13:38All I had to do was wait.
13:39You couldn't be sure that he was going to lose the election?
13:42Yes, actually, I could.
13:47We didn't know about Jason Bollinger Horn's opponent in the race.
13:53Is the statement ready?
13:54Mike's still working on it.
13:55Well, tell Mike that the Ledger website updates in 20 minutes, and I want my quote
13:59of outrage and sympathy in a damn article.
14:01I'm sorry.
14:02It's been all hands on deck since we found out.
14:03If you don't handle these things right, you'd get crucified.
14:05Mr. Bollinger, I was...
14:06Mr. Bollinger is my father.
14:07Call me Jason.
14:09Okay, Jason.
14:10How well do you know Calvin Creason?
14:12He threw me a couple fundraisers.
14:13We met a few times.
14:14Why?
14:15Well, he seems to think that you have some information on Horn, something that would guarantee
14:19you the election.
14:21Castle?
14:22Sorry.
14:25Come on.
14:27Opposition research...
14:28Conducted by a licensed private investigator.
14:31Listen, I want to stress that everything we did was completely vetted by our lawyers.
14:34None of it was illegal.
14:35We were just trying to determine if the councilman had any significant vulnerabilities.
14:39And you found some.
14:40Oh, yes.
14:42Look, politics is politics, but I'm not a bad guy.
14:46I figured as long as I was ahead in the polls, there was no reason to use it.
14:51That's councilman Horn?
14:55And that is not his wife.
15:08I got a hand at the councilman Horn.
15:09He is incredibly flexible for a guy his age.
15:13Look at that.
15:14You ever do that?
15:15Would you put those away?
15:16I'm just saying, he's got to do yoga or Pilates or something.
15:19Why is it always the family value guys that get caught with their pants down?
15:23Because the universe loves irony.
15:25And because most people are hypocrites.
15:27And what was that girl thinking?
15:29That he would leave his wife and kids for her?
15:31That is so sexist.
15:33How is that so sexist?
15:34You assume that just because she's a woman, that she was after a relationship.
15:38Do you ever think maybe she was in it for the sex?
15:39Yes, I did.
15:41And then I saw him.
15:44What was it that turned you off?
15:45That he was wearing a rug?
15:48Too soon.
15:50I just hope that the PI can help us.
15:54Beckett?
15:55Yo, so the rug is a dead end.
15:58According to housekeeping, they dumped a couple dozen of them last week.
16:01Half of them went into the dumpsters.
16:02Half of them were donated to thrift shops.
16:04I already have a boyfriend.
16:06Creason's clientele is known for being hard on rooms.
16:09Just right there, do it.
16:10It's fine.
16:11What?
16:12Dude, dude, not cool.
16:14Not cool.
16:16So you have my car.
16:18I'll push this all into the bag.
16:23Are you sure I can't tempt you?
16:27No, thanks, Mr. Kirby.
16:28I'm on duty.
16:29Oh.
16:30Never stopped me.
16:32You were on the job.
16:3320 years out of the 134.
16:35Of course, back then we had other cops as partners.
16:38Not second-rate novelist.
16:41Yeah, don't get me started.
16:42Uh, excuse me.
16:44Second-rate?
16:45Hot lead poured out of cold steel?
16:47Come on.
16:47It's not exactly Shakespeare.
16:49Will you put that down?
16:51How long were you working for the Bollinger campaign, Mr. Kirby?
16:54Oh, a couple weeks.
16:55But it was a fun one.
16:57Mr. Family Values tells his wife that he's gonna work late.
17:00Probably crash at the office.
17:0320 minutes later, he is...
17:06polling his constituency.
17:09And what about the girl?
17:11Well, I could see she was worth every cent.
17:13She was a pro.
17:14You don't think with a body like that she's gonna swoon over his stump speeches, do you?
17:18Makes you wonder what else you had a taste for.
17:19And what it led to.
17:20Do you have an address?
17:22Strictly alcohol.
17:24You know, whores used to have street corners.
17:29And now they have websites.
17:34Damn!
17:35Those are some seriously fine five-star Class B misdemeanors.
17:38Dude, between you and me, you ever pay for it?
17:40Are you counting my marriages?
17:42Wait, stop!
17:43That's the girl in the photos.
17:44Ah, look at her.
17:46If I had your money...
17:46This isn't phone sex, Ryan.
17:48You don't just pay for the two minutes that you used.
17:51The 800 number is registered to a P.O. box from out of state.
17:54We're gonna have to get cyber to track down the IP, see where it's hosted.
17:57Well, what if the IP's out of state, too?
17:59We just coordinate with local PDs.
18:00If they want to cooperate.
18:02Sites like these are designed to evade authorities.
18:04We'll get there.
18:04Just take us some time.
18:06Or you could just do it the easy way.
18:08VIP liaisons.
18:09Castle, what are you doing?
18:11Hi, my name's Richard.
18:12I'm a very generous man looking to arrange a very special date with Tiffany.
18:16Just give me a call on my phone, which is 347-555-0179.
18:22Castle, you can't just call and arrange a date with a prostitute.
18:25Why not?
18:26Because we're the police.
18:27No, no, no, no.
18:28You're the police.
18:29I'm just a lonely, upscale gentleman looking for a date.
18:33Bet I find her first.
18:35Hey, there are Rick Castle here?
18:37Right here.
18:37Where do you want it, boss?
18:38Ah, straight through there.
18:40Castle.
18:42You are going to love this.
18:43No, I'm pretty sure I won't.
18:45Guys, guys, guys.
18:47Just put it right over there.
18:49Perfect.
18:49Lift your knees, Matt.
18:50Stay here for one second, would you?
18:53Because you guys have been so wonderfully hospitable to me, I just want to return the favor.
18:58And because your coffee is basically crap, I got you an espresso machine.
19:05How cool is that?
19:10I think my phone's ringing.
19:12I don't know how to put this together.
19:14That's part of the delivery, right?
19:15Excellent.
19:21I don't get it.
19:22If Creason didn't do it, then how does the rug fit in?
19:25Killer probably heard about the feud between the two of them and tried to shift suspicion.
19:28Which is stupid, because without the rug, it would just look like a mugging gun world.
19:33So by trying to look smart, they were actually being stupid?
19:35I think you just described the human condition.
19:37Speaking of the human condition, how's it going with Detective Beckett?
19:42What do you mean?
19:43Oh, come on, Dad.
19:44You are basing a character off her.
19:45And you always say you have to love your characters.
19:48Well, she is a character.
19:50But, uh, just research.
19:52Nothing more.
19:53Yeah, I'm sure.
19:54Well, found out why your books aren't selling.
19:58Listen to this review.
19:59His work has become so hackneyed, so cliche, that we wonder if Mr. Castle has anything new to say.
20:06It appears the magic, if there ever was any, is long gone.
20:11Oh, darling, I know.
20:12It's awful.
20:13It's awful.
20:14I'm sorry.
20:15Daggers to the heart.
20:16The Syracuse Times reader.
20:18But don't you worry.
20:20I am going to write them a piece of my mind.
20:22And who cares if they say the magic is gone?
20:25Harper Lee only wrote one book.
20:27You've written dozens.
20:28Of course, hers was literature.
20:30But still, I...
20:32I...
20:36How long do you think I took her to find that review?
20:38Probably all afternoon.
20:39Oh, yeah.
20:40Oh, come on.
20:41You know she does it out of love, right?
20:43I mean, she thinks it's her job to keep you grounded.
20:46Well, I certainly feel grounded.
20:51You have the bridge, number one?
20:54Hello?
20:55Is this Richard?
20:56Yes, it is.
20:57Who's this?
20:58It's Tiffany.
20:59You called me for a date?
21:01Yes, I did, Tiffany.
21:03And I am so glad you called.
21:06Just out of curiosity, what are you wearing right now?
21:12Hey.
21:13Damn, girl, you scared me.
21:16Lainey, you're surrounded by corpses.
21:18Yeah, I don't expect the living after 7 o'clock.
21:21Funny, neither do I.
21:24I'm an M.E.
21:25What's your excuse?
21:25Oh, dopamine.
21:26You deserve it.
21:27Getting a drink with me after work
21:29instead of getting your freak on with Ryder Boy?
21:31Yeah, well, he is annoying,
21:33self-centered, egotistical,
21:35and completely...
21:36Fun.
21:38And take it from me, girlfriend,
21:40you need some fun.
21:42I mean, how bad can he be?
21:48Beckett.
21:50Guess who's got a date with a prostitute?
21:52I'm a prostitute.
22:09Richard, I'm Tiffany.
22:11It's a pleasure to meet you, Tiffany.
22:12Please.
22:14Oh, a gentleman.
22:16We're a dying breed.
22:17A woman is lucky I found you.
22:18Actually, it's lucky we found you.
22:21Detective Kate Beckett,
22:22we need to ask you some questions
22:23regarding your relationship
22:24with Councilman Jeff Horn.
22:30Sorry.
22:32He was one of my regulars,
22:33but I swear,
22:34I had nothing to do with his death.
22:35How often did you see Councilman Horn?
22:37Once, maybe twice a week.
22:39At first, he just wanted to talk.
22:41Right, he paid you just to talk.
22:43Detective,
22:44most men come to me
22:45because they're lonely,
22:47because the people in their lives
22:48don't listen anymore.
22:49The sex is just a way
22:50for them to feel connected again.
22:52Okay, when was the last time
22:53that you and Councilman Horn connected?
22:56A couple of weeks ago.
22:57He came to me, hysterical.
22:59He said that he couldn't see me anymore.
23:00What happened?
23:01His wife found out?
23:03No, someone else.
23:05He said that he was being blackmailed.
23:07Someone had photos of us.
23:08Who?
23:10He didn't know.
23:11At first, he thought it was me.
23:12He got upset,
23:13and then he panicked.
23:14He thought that I had told my friends.
23:16And did you?
23:18I may surprise you, detective,
23:19but I have dreams of my own.
23:21Look, this just pays the bills.
23:23If our relationship ever went public,
23:25he's not the only one
23:26that would be ruined.
23:28You said he panicked.
23:30Yeah, he was desperate
23:31to find out who was behind it.
23:32He wanted to cut a deal.
23:34He said that he couldn't keep
23:35making payoffs
23:36without the campaign finding out.
23:39Politics, escorts, and blackmail?
23:41This just keeps getting better.
23:42The councilman was looking
23:43for his blackmailer.
23:44What if he found him?
23:45He gets violent.
23:47The blackmailer responds.
23:48And then tries covering
23:49what he's done
23:49by implicating Creason.
23:51So all you need to do
23:52is find your blackmailer.
23:53That's impossible.
23:54I kept those photos
23:55under lock and key.
23:56No offense, Jason,
23:57but your desk isn't exactly Fort Knox.
23:58If somebody knew about them,
24:00they wouldn't be difficult to get.
24:01Do you know how many people
24:02are in and out of this office?
24:02No, but I would like a list.
24:04Now, wait a minute.
24:05You intend on opening up
24:06an investigation on my campaign
24:07with two weeks left in the election?
24:09What are you trying to do?
24:09Cost me the race?
24:10What are you worried about?
24:11You're running unopposed.
24:13Not anymore.
24:15Lori Horne announced
24:15that she's running
24:16for her husband's seat.
24:18Yesterday, I had an eight-point lead.
24:19With the sympathy bump,
24:20by tonight we'll be tied.
24:23That we cannot let
24:25our personal tragedy
24:27stand in the way
24:28of my husband's vision
24:29for the future of New York.
24:32Irony is that
24:33if I release those photos now,
24:34the people will love her even more.
24:37At least 300 people
24:39have access to those photos.
24:40Are you planning on
24:41questioning all of them?
24:42No, they're just for reference.
24:45Horne was worried
24:45he couldn't keep paying
24:46without the campaign finding out.
24:47So?
24:48So if the money was coming
24:49from the campaign,
24:50then there is bound to be a trail.
25:01Black man.
25:02We believe he may have been
25:04making payoffs
25:04through the campaign.
25:07I've known Jeff for years.
25:08He's a good man.
25:10A family man.
25:11You had no idea?
25:13None.
25:14This gets out.
25:14Mr. Nesbitt,
25:15if he used campaign funds
25:17to make payments,
25:18then we should be able
25:18to trace him back
25:19to the blackmailer,
25:20but we need access
25:21to your campaign ledgers.
25:22Yeah, of course.
25:23I'll get you a disc.
25:27Detective.
25:33What he did was wrong.
25:34I'm not excusing it.
25:37But if you release those photos,
25:39you'll be doing irreparable harm
25:40to all the good
25:40he did in this city.
25:42Not to mention causing
25:44immeasurable pain
25:44to his family.
25:47These photos are evidence
25:49in a murder investigation.
25:50We have no intention
25:51of releasing them.
25:52Well, thank God for that.
25:54But you should be aware
25:56that one way or another,
25:58these sorts of things
25:59inevitably see the light of day.
26:14You got something
26:15against foamy richness?
26:17Yeah.
26:19It annoys me.
26:21Detective Beckett.
26:23You cross-reference
26:24Horn's campaign payouts
26:25to the volunteers
26:26and employees
26:27of Bollinger's office.
26:28And?
26:28The worst series
26:29of off-book payments
26:29totaling 30 grand,
26:30chronic bank to bank,
26:31but no payee,
26:32just an account number.
26:36Were you able
26:36to track down the account?
26:37Oh, yeah.
26:38There's Bruce Kirby,
26:40that PI that took the pictures.
26:41He is your blackmailer.
26:43Did you run him up?
26:43Of course.
26:44Real peach.
26:45Lost his badge
26:46for excessive force,
26:47on probation
26:48for criminal intimidation.
26:49And he has registration
26:50for a .38.
26:51Same caliber
26:51that killed
26:52Councilman Horn.
26:57Oh, it's good.
26:59That's the stuff.
27:00Yeah.
27:00Mmm.
27:02It's good, man.
27:03Flavor country.
27:07What?
27:08I figure I got the photos.
27:09The gutless punk
27:10isn't going to use them.
27:11What the hell shouldn't I?
27:12Because it's illegal?
27:14Hey, I'm not the one
27:15that was dipping my churro
27:16in sugar nearly half my age.
27:18The guy had it coming.
27:19Except he found you out.
27:20He came after you.
27:21Yeah.
27:21So what happened, Kirby?
27:23He loses cool?
27:24He get violent?
27:24What? No.
27:25He put a round in his head
27:27and tried to pin it
27:28on Creason.
27:29Whoa, whoa, whoa.
27:30Sherlock,
27:31I didn't kill him.
27:33He was coming to meet
27:34with me, yes,
27:35with a proposition.
27:36He wanted to know
27:37what it would take
27:38to make it all
27:39go away forever.
27:40What did you tell him?
27:42I thought,
27:42what the hell,
27:42$250,000?
27:44I never thought
27:44he'd say yes.
27:45He did.
27:46He got the money.
27:48The night he was killed,
27:49he was coming
27:49to meet me with it.
27:52He never showed.
28:13What do you think?
28:14Waiting to receive
28:15a blackmail payoff
28:15from the Vic?
28:17My three-year-old son
28:18could come up
28:18with a better story
28:18than that.
28:19So bad it might be true.
28:20Yeah, well,
28:21we got a team
28:21tossing his place
28:22for the weapon.
28:22Book him on the blackmail
28:23till we see what
28:24the search turns up.
28:25In the meantime,
28:25follow the money.
28:26If this bozo
28:27is telling the truth...
28:27Then Horn had
28:28a quarter million dollars
28:29on him when he was killed.
28:30Yeah, so where's the money?
28:31And where does
28:31the underpaid public servant
28:32get it from
28:33in the first place?
28:37Well, he'd go
28:38where all politicians go.
28:39To people who like him.
28:41People who gave him
28:42money before.
28:47Hey!
28:48Hey!
28:49Can I go home now?
28:51What happened to Jeff Horn
28:52was a tragedy.
28:54Not just for his family,
28:55but for all of us
28:56he served.
28:58And even though violence
28:59stole his life,
29:00his wife,
29:01is here with us today.
29:02Refusing to let violence
29:04steal his dream
29:05of a better New York.
29:07Ladies and gentlemen,
29:09Lori Horn.
29:16Thank you so much.
29:17We all know
29:18it should be my husband
29:20speaking with you today.
29:22It should be his
29:23calming voice,
29:25not mine that you hear.
29:26This is a city council race,
29:28not the U.S. Senate.
29:29We rely on thousands
29:30of small donations,
29:31not a few big ones.
29:32Well, some of them
29:33must have deep pockets.
29:34Well, the depth
29:35of those pockets
29:35is limited by the law.
29:36And if it wasn't
29:37limited by law,
29:38did Horn have any supporters
29:39that would be willing
29:40to go the extra mile?
29:43Detective,
29:45with all due respect,
29:46there's no way in hell
29:47I'm helping you
29:48start a witch hunt
29:49against our top supporters.
29:51You want to go through
29:51our campaign contributors?
29:52Fine.
29:53That's a matter of public record,
29:54but anything else
29:55and you're on your own.
30:00Over this way.
30:03Yes.
30:10Hey.
30:11Hey.
30:13Finished your homework?
30:14Yeah.
30:15Do you want to finish mine?
30:16Well, that depends.
30:17How much you're offering
30:18to pay me?
30:19Oh, I thought you will.
30:21Gina called.
30:22She wanted me to remind you
30:23about the reading and book signing
30:24in Broadway Books
30:25tomorrow night.
30:25Oh, that was nice of her.
30:26Yeah, and if you don't show,
30:28she will drip honey
30:30on your eyeballs
30:31and let loose
30:32a hundred fire ants.
30:33Okay, what's worse?
30:34A hundred fire ants
30:35on your eyeballs
30:36or reading to a crowd
30:39prose so bad
30:40it sent me screaming
30:41out into the snow.
30:43You know,
30:43if you really want
30:44to feel sorry for yourself,
30:45you should read
30:46the review in The Legend.
30:47Really?
30:47What's that damn
30:48liberal elite media
30:49saying about me now?
30:51Richard Castle's
30:52stirring finale
30:53reminds us what good
30:54pulp fiction is all about.
30:56It makes us desire
30:57a world of starving
30:58hardling imperfection
30:59so we can rise above
31:00and become the heroes
31:01we always imagined
31:02ourselves to be.
31:04It used to be
31:05such a good paper
31:06to see it falling so far.
31:07It's sad, really.
31:08Shut up.
31:10I'm proud of you.
31:11No, you remember that
31:12next time I sing
31:12the peanut butter song
31:13in front of your friends.
31:15Have you caught
31:15the killer yet?
31:16No.

32:19Good night.
32:22hi hi something i need to show you
32:28i found this in the archives from his first run for office see horn wasn't wealthy but his wife
32:33came from money she tapped into her family trust to finance his first campaign all this time we
32:38thought that horn was hiding his affair from his wife yeah but what if she knew about the affair
32:43what if he got the blackmail money from her
32:49yes ma'am account number seven three seven eight eight one oh three according to the administrator
32:54of the family trust mrs horn marketed about three hundred thousand dollars worth of stocks last
32:58week she knew bank records indicate the funds will have drawn two days before the exchange
33:04her husband's killed two hundred fifty thousand dollars goes missing she doesn't say a word
33:08of course i didn't say a word it's none of your damn business despite the fact that it could have
33:13had significant bearing on your husband's murder i have a family detective beckett their father is
33:18dead what use is dragging their names through the mud providing fodder for late night comedians
33:23when did you know the trust called to confirm the stock sale my wonderful husband forged my signature
33:29on the papers thinking i would be too stupid to notice and when i confronted him he claimed he needed
33:34the money for tax reasons reasons that i wouldn't understand but i understood all right everything that
33:42i wanted everything that i wanted us to be and he can't keep his fly zipped so what did you
33:49decide to
33:49do between public humiliation and blackmail i chose blackmail and i told him to make it go away
33:58okay so what do you think happened that night i don't know
34:04okay so that night when he called what did he actually say that he had the money that he was
34:09going
34:10to meet the guy and that was the last thing he said to me and god knows what happened after
34:15that
34:15and you're sure that he had the money yes why because we found it at your house
34:24my house the search warrant was served this morning your housekeeper was very cooperative
34:30if your husband had the money when he was killed how did it get back to your house
34:38you're more than angry weren't you you were outraged he didn't just betray you he humiliated you and
34:45everyone was going to know and so you just decided to make it go away
34:57you see those wives in the inevitable press conference standing stone-faced next to their
35:03men and you think how did they do that how did they just stand there how do they watch as
35:11their whole
35:12world melts into a spotlight of shame and so you killed him no no i i was home you called
35:20your
35:20husband at 11 pm what did you say i i was with my daughter conspiracy to commit murder is the
35:25same
35:26as murder whether you were there or not are you ready to deal
35:38it was my job to make the call
35:43i was supposed to tell him that the blackmailer changed the meat
35:48i was supposed to tell him where to go down by the underpass where no one would see
35:59he had it all arranged even that rug for his body all i had to do was make a call
36:25he said he would make everything like it was he said he would make it look like someone else did
36:30it
36:32he said no one would ever know mrs horn laurie i need to know who it's not supposed to be
36:41like this
36:43we were friends and we were going to change the world
36:52frank nesbitt you are under arrest for the murder of jeff horn

37:03silent hey hey
37:10stop running bro campaign's over
37:14yes wasn't quite finished back there mrs nesbitt you have the right to remain silent anything you
37:19say it can and will be used against you in a court of law after we found the weapon in
37:23nesbitt's office
37:24he made a full confession he got horn to call her husband and get him down to the overpass and
37:29then
37:29he took care of the rest politics was nesbitt's life he figured if the scandal broke his career
37:33would be over and he'd be damaged goods sad thing is he was probably right so what happened to the
37:39girls horn had a sister upstate she's coming down tomorrow to pick him up from social services

38:22he reached out for her and she took his hand squeezing it for the very last time
38:30she felt her heart stop a beat and in that moment
38:34she knew he was gone darkness fell across the face of the city and across her face as well

39:19Detective Beckett, to what do I owe this very unexpected pleasure?
39:24Excuse me. Thank you.
39:27I just figured if you're going to bother me at my work, I should bother you at yours.
39:31That was quite a reading. Very moving.
39:35Are you making fun of me?
39:37Good, she thought.
39:39As the wind gathered up her hair, no one will see my tears.
39:46How does wind gather up hair? I'm just curious.
39:48Oh, you're telling me how to do my job.
39:50Irritating, isn't it?
39:51Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, look at you.
39:56Denise from The Letcher says you're going to be number one this week, and look, everyone is buying your book.
40:02Now, don't you feel silly for believing all those reviews?
40:05Yes, yes I do.
40:06Well, let's just hope Nicky Heat does as well.
40:10Nicky Heat?
40:10The character he's basing on you.
40:14Nicky Heat.
40:15Uh-oh. Can I talk to you for a second?
40:17Of course.
40:19Uh, let it. Yes.
40:21I want to hear.
40:25What kind of a name is Nicky Heat?
40:27A cop name.
40:28It's a stripper name.
40:29Well, I told you she was kind of slutty.
40:31Change it, Castle.
40:32Well, hang on. Think of the titles.
40:34Summer Heat.
40:36Heatwave.
40:37In Heat.
40:40Change the name.
40:40No.
40:41Yes.
40:41No.
40:42Change it, Castle.
40:43Castle.
40:44Sorry.
40:44I have artistic integrity.
40:46Artistic integrity.
40:47Change the name, Castle.
40:49Today.
40:50What next?
40:50What next?
40:52What next?
40:53I don't think about you, I'll be sad.
41:26I don't think about you today.
