GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! bounce: bounce: bounce: bounce: bounce:

Must. Calm. Down.

That was way too much fun. Will have to collect my thoughts after 2nd viewing tomorrow, but I just want to post a few questions that popped up during tonight's episode…

1. Neither of those families realized that their kids didn't look like theirs? Blond-haired parents have a dark-haired boy and vice-versa? Guess only one of them thought to look into it and look what happened to her. Very sad. Jose Molina was right- laughing and crying tonight.

2. Beckett knows that Castle had finished the book way before this ep, and she didn't think he was writing more- so why is she not questioning him for still being around? He must not be quite as annoying as she makes him out to be, huh?

Ok, one comment. The dual phone call at the end was just awesome. Too cute and clever. love:

The dual phone calls were definitely a cute touch. And it helped break the tension, that is until Beckett looked like she was going to kill Castle Bounce

I agree!! What can I say:  No surprises that I absolutely loved this episode already!! I love that Debi's character was kind of jealous that KB got a full book and she only got a measly chapter!!

The car scene was awesome!! I really do think that RC and KB have their best moments when its just them…and a car!! :P

I will hafta watch the episode again to catch minor details but I hope DWTS and their mention of Castle will help Castle get more viewers!!

Loved tonight's episode. I wanted to smack Castle at the book signing though. They were having a nice heart-to-heart conversation, and then he switches to talking about the case. The disappointment was clear on poor Beckett's face. I had the same feeling of shame with Martha too, with her comment about Beckett possibly not wanting Castle around anymore.

Things I loved:
-The dedication in the book. I love how he put "KB" instead of actually putting her name there. I think that's something that Beckett probably would have appreciated.
-Debi Mazar's character and what she did for Castle and Beckett's relationship. The whole possibility of the british secret agent (who shall not be named) was just the thing needed to give them a little push.
-The scene at the end with the phone calls. Castle looked ecstatic about the news, and even though he had nothing to do with it, he clearly wasn't sorry. And I think Beckett's frustration was mostly about the fact that she's the last person to find out about these things that directly involve her. You can tell that she was really relieved to have Castle sticking around.

The only thing that bothered me: Would it have killed Castle to hug her? A hand shake just won't do after all they've been through. :P

I enjoyed the episode, but was disappointed that they did not spend as much time at the book party. Debi' character was a hoot to watch as well. I also felt that they rushed at the end to have everything work out. Beckett did show so much emotion and was leading Castle to say the right thing, like staying in NY to see her.

Was it me or did Castle quickly decided to leave without considering how it might affect the budding relationship with Beckett. I guess that I wanted to have Castle and Beckett have a little longer serious conversations.

Hooray for Season 3!

I think the whole issue was that he automatically assumed she didn't want him around because of what Martha said. Her advice when it comes to Beckett is usually pretty helpful, so it makes sense that he'd agree with what Martha said. And he cares about Beckett a lot, so if she wanted them to part ways, he would probably do it because it's what she wanted. We've seen before that he makes decisions that involve Beckett without actually stopping to think what she might have to say about it. The book deal on the side just pushed him to make that decision sooner.

Just wanted to add one more piece of awesome that I noticed before I sleep and forget about it.

When Paula and Rick are talking about the certain British secret agent, listen really closely to the background music. To whomever does the music- Feed the birds.

ooh!! Darn i won't be able to re-watch for a while!! What was the background music?

Also, did anyone else notice that there wasn't the whole "There are 2 types of people who sit around all day thinking about how to murder somebody  – psychopaths and mystery writers…I'm the kind that pays better…who am I?…Castle Castle Castle…every artist needs inspiration…Beckett Beckett Beckett" introduction before the episode?  OR was it just my tv?

You're right, they did leave off the intro. Guess they figured everyone ought to be caught up enough by now.

Very British spy who can't be named-sounding. Might rhyme with Old-linger, or something like that

OH… MY… GOD…
That was nothing short of electric.

The scene at the book signing. One second you almost expect them to lock lips, the next they look like they're going to draw knives. Just fantastic.

Then the scene at the end, essentially cementing their partnership for the long term… just great.

Even the case was pretty good. I found myself quite moved by the actor who played the immigrant father. All round great, great stuff.

MORE! I want MORE!!Love

Ah, totally. I didn't even get the reference to 007 until I heard the music! Totally thought "the certain British spy" was one of Castle's past characters or something… Doh

Overall a nice ep, really great. Totally had me guessing on both scenarios: Castle and Beckett's as well as Eliska's murder.

Such a sweet scene at the end, with the Eliska's ex meeting Zane… very cute. I loved that look C/B shared, kinda like "Aw, we helped do that."

And I totally died at the car scene! Kate totally looked like she was going to say something meaningful if the nurse hadn't shown up.

Teaser looks great (as usual) for next week's <img class=" /> Can't wait!

I loved this episode, though for different reasons than I loved last week's episode.  Last week's episode explored the playful side of their relationship, while this week delved a little deeper into their true feelings.  If you'd asked Beckett what she thought about their relationship at the beginning of the episode, she would have said he was an annoying distraction who she'd be much better off without.  But that was before she was confronted by the fact that the relationship had an expiration date, and that the date was fast approaching.

Castle's mother did a great job of undermining his self-confidence in this episode, though in a loving fashion.  The point she made about Beckett getting along just fine without him clearly hadn't occurred to him until it was said out loud, and that neatly cut away one of his potential reasons for staying where he was.  Thinking "I can't leave!  She needs me!" doesn't wash when the person in question doesn't actually need you.  And once he'd started looking at the problem in that light, he started picking up signs where there weren't any that she really didn't want him around.

As great as this episode was, the scene that made me laugh the hardest and longest was during the previews for next week's episode.  If you watch really closely, you'll see his halloween costume…and boy is it a doozy.  It made my night.

My favorite episode so far. Stana looked stunning in the dress. I think she wore the dress on purpose. She was practically saying if you leave you'll never see this body again. :rofl: It's a shame that Castle moved on to another subject and killed the mood. The facial expressions of Beckett were great. You can tell she really didn't want him to leave.
