I agree. I think Castle is going to be somewhat reluctant to make a real move beyond taking her dress and offering her his arm like he did at the end of "The Third Man." I think when it happens it will be Beckett who at least brings it on, if not completely making the move herself.

Yeah I agree with that too, "The Third Man" at the end. Castle sort of tried already in season one when he first met her, but now it's different. So he seems like he will only go so far with his flirting, and his actions like taking her dress and offering his arm to go out. We all know that Castle likes her since the beginning, so it's more Beckett that we need to open up, which is what she does at the end of each episode so far since "Rose Everafter." :) I hope they keep it up, I'm loving it!

All these sound good to me, I hope they both make a move for the other and just give in to it. Maybe it takes something major to happen to one of them, we saw that with #12 #13 and moving closer in #14. I'd like them to both see they are meant for each other and make it a mutual approach, maybe uncover operation and they are together in a situation where they are alone. I love the elevator situations they have so it would be fun if they were in the elevator and it broke down and they had to be together alone and talk and then it just happens they kiss. Corny I know but I love corny romance.

Like you all have said here it will most likely be Beckett who makes the first move, Castle is so freaked he will lose her if he acts like the wise cracking guy he has made himself appear to be.

At this point, because of all the threats that KB has made towards Castle it needs to be her making the move. Or, in the very least, telling Castle (with words) that she's ready for something more so he can then make a move.

I thought the last scene of 'The Third Man' was very ballsy of Castle. hehe.

@pamfromcalif….Hmmm now that you mention it, I don't think anyone else has ever been in the elevator with them. I think my favorite elevator scenes are when Castle has a bet going on with Ryan and Esposito on who will solve their case first, and they come running behind him and Beckett to come in the elevator, but Castle hits the button for the doors to close on them. Then Beckett is like, "Why'd you do that?" ' class='wp-smiley' /> I think that's the closest they've ever been to having other's in the elevator with them…unless I'm forgetting something.

had you asked me this question before the last couple of episodes i would've wholeheartedly disagreed that it should be kate that makes the first move. however, after seeing castle sort of put himself out there with the suggestion of going to dinner together, i agree with everyone that it should be kate that initiates anything. up until this episode i felt that castle has been the one making all the advancements, but kate never really knows when he's being serious. he's been insinuating them getting together since the beginning so nothing's really changed there. i felt like until castle made it abundantly clear that he was serious about what he was saying and not just shamelessly flirting that kate would never take him seriously. i honestly didn't think kate would accept his dinner invitation, and i was so pleasantly surprised that she did. progress, for sure.

I wasn't too surprised that she accepted, but what was a bit surprising is that she accepted the invitation with no terms.

For instance I thought she'd insist that they go dutch or something along those lines… I was very happy that she said basically "to heck with it", as she told Lanie, she wanted a change and what a better way than not to over think everything.

It's awesome how Castle doesn't see her as a fancy restaurant kind of gal (superficial/aware of her image), but a burger and fries gal. In

other words, down to earth, real and not pretentious.

Hopefully she will be the one plant one on him. And his reaction out of it will be fun to watch too.

I do favor Beckett doing it, but as long as somebody does it I'll be happy

@Van… And maybe it could be Castle, because we just saw at the end of this weeks episode he made a move just to go get a burger and the Beckett we know from season 1 probably wouldn't have gone, but now that they're closer and have revealed more about themselves to each other, she went with him. Hopefully we see more of that this season.
