I'm usually dumb as a post when figuring out who the killer is but this episode I pegged her the first scene she was in. Don't know why, but she gave me "killer" vibes.

one of my fave scenes was when castle was asking beckett about what alexis told her, and beckett said 'and put you out of your misery'. hahaha loved that part.

i also loved beckett's reaction when castle told her she met scarlet, and then beckett dropping it off as a date. haha :D

and the last part with beckett saying 'that  starts tomorrow'. haha love it :D

Admin I agree…I thought that was a very funny part.  I actually thought there were many funny parts in this episode.  I found myself laughing outloud.  Beckett's face was hiliarious when Castle asked the asian man if he liked "fat girls" and the relief on their faces when he finally said he liked "call girls".  I thought Beckett's one liners were funnier than usual in this episode.  Plus she seemed concerned (becuase I won't use the word jealous yet) about what Castle is up too.  At the beginning when she asked if they interrupted him with something or somebody or when she shoots back at Castle with the line of "at least I didn't go on a date with him" as if Castle and the call girl had a date.  I liked those moments.  I really enjoyed this episode.  Already watched three times…lol

It was hilarious…Loved how Castle and Beckett kept drifting very close to each other, or when she got right in his face saying "we'll talk about this later" haha she was so jeleous! Castle sweatin bullets through the whole episode to find out what his daughter's secret was was hilarious specially when he finds out it's really nothing! THo I did hope for more…and more effect on Castle and Beckett's relationship…

Honey-Milk was high-larious! I was laughing so hard! I had to pause the episode because my husband didn't get it. I has to explain where it came from.

I loved when Castle got kicked to the backseat. Very funny moment.

I noticed that Beckett seems to be invading Castle's personal space more then she used to. She also seemed to get very jealous of Castle and the Call Girl (and not just in the "You shouldn't be working the case without me" jealously).

When they were going to "save" the Call Girl and Beckett said "Wait here" and Castle stood up to her and said he was coming too and the look in his eyes… And then Beckett gave in… I turned to my husband and said "That's new." It was a great moment of showing how much more Beckett trusts him and how much Castle cares about people.

Another great episode!

I have a slightly different take on the Alexis story: Alexis has been thinking about studying abroad – Oxford no less. That is a big move, for a loooong time, and I would say pretty explosive considering how close Castle and Alexis are. Remember, it's been just the two of them for long periods of time, and he's already dreading the day she leaves for college. Now she has to figure out a way to tell him. Talking to Beckett about studying abroad was clarifying for her. But I also think it was part of a strategy. First make daddy worry. Next "you're so great, dad", softening him up. Then spring the "three weeks in France, missing your birthday" – which is no big deal, and making him agree that studying abroad is a good idea. Then saying, "I won't go, but stay with you, for your birthday" getting him relaxed and get him all "thank you, you're so kind, I owe you one". And then springing the Oxford idea… how can he protest now? Don't think Alexis is that sneaky? Remember she started the episode lying to Castle!

Good take.

I wouldn't put it past Alexis, but I wouldn't put it past Kate to suggest easing Castle into the idea of her leaving for Oxford either. It's tough when you're surrounded by smart women.

PeTJa said:I almost felt bad for Castle, knowing Alexis is going to leave him one day. But then I remembered – he will have had Beckett for his girlfriend by then instead. ;)

Two years down the road is a long time… Who knows what she'll be by then? hehe.

I liked this episode my fave parts when Jessup taught Castle how to unlock himself the end scene w/Alexis and Castle. I was kinda dissapointed that Beckett and Alexis didnt get an on screen moment *too much wishful thinking I guess* I figured it was the call girl who killed the lawyer when the episode was almost over. All in all it was a good episode.

I liked this episode better on the 2nd viewing.  I guess I was too caught up in the moment during the first run to notice extra things.  I liked that the physical space of both Castle and Beckett keep getting intermixed…ie. they get in each other's space a lot.  The Locksmith was totally hysterical and I hope we see him back in another episode.  I was disappointed on first viewing with the Alexis secret.  But, by the 2nd viewing, I saw how it worked into the mix of things and why it would have been considered an "explosive" secret, considering Castle's relationship with his daughter–and her possibly going overseas. 

The dialogue between Castle and Beckett when he first shows her the compromising photo's of the Reverend which he got from the call girl "at his apartment" made for an extremely interesting relationship conversation.  They kind of "talked around" the REAL issue (Beckett and jealousy and why a Call Girl would be going to Castle's apartment in the first place) with Beckett "verbally clipping him" for not having called her immediately and him making excuses for not having done so.  That was followed up later with Beckett's comment about her not "dating" the suspect, referencing the Call Girl and Castle.  And then a third follow on where Castle thanks her for not saying "I told you so" to her response (paraphrased) that that begins tomorrow.   Those jokes linked through several scenes, which was well done by the writers and it added dimension to the Castle-Beckett relationship.
