who sit around thinking
about how to kill people:
3
00:00:03,269 --> 00:00:04,995
Psychopaths
and mystery writers.
4
00:00:05,233 --> 00:00:06,255
I'm the kind that pays better.
5
00:00:06,656 --> 00:00:07,256
Who am I?
6
00:00:07,345 --> 00:00:08,484
I'm Rick Castle.
7
00:00:08,485 --> 00:00:08,885
Castle.
8
00:00:08,919 --> 00:00:09,579
Castle.
9
00:00:09,580 --> 00:00:11,580
I really am ruggedly handsome,
aren't I?
10
00:00:11,726 --> 00:00:13,916
Every writer needs inspiration.
And I found mine.
11
00:00:14,126 --> 00:00:14,945
Detective Kate Beckett.
12
00:00:14,980 --> 00:00:16,000

- The character he's basing on you.
14
00:00:17,987 --> 00:00:19,473
And thanks to my friendship
with the mayor,
15
00:00:19,474 --> 00:00:20,474
I get to be on her case.
16
00:00:20,508 --> 00:00:22,451
I would be happy
to let you spank me.
17
00:00:22,486 --> 00:00:23,362
And together, we catch killers
18
00:00:24,310 --> 00:00:25,298
we make a pretty
good team, you know?
19
00:00:25,299 --> 00:00:26,299

20

21
00:00:27,490 --> 00:00:28,557
You do remind me
a little of Hooch.

00:01:03,188 --> 00:01:04,855

(Esposito)
Victim's name is Paul Finch.
80
00:02:43,355 --> 00:02:44,927
According to the registration,
it's his car.
81
00:02:45,047 --> 00:02:46,105
What do we know
about him?
82
00:02:46,225 --> 00:02:47,803
We ran him for next of kin,
found his wife.
83
00:02:47,923 --> 00:02:49,583
(Ryan) She's on her way in.
And his rap sheet.
84
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,099
He's a thief...
(Camera shutter clicking)
85
00:02:52,219 --> 00:02:54,641
Couple of bank jobs,
some corporate B&Es.
86
00:02:54,761 --> 00:02:56,070
But he hasn't been arrested
in a few years.
87
00:02:56,190 --> 00:02:57,358
So he's either
really lucky...
88
00:02:57,478 --> 00:02:58,970
Or he's out of the game.
What happened?
89
00:02:59,292 --> 00:03:00,755
I'd say he was electrocuted.
90
00:03:00,875 --> 00:03:01,821
This voltage
had to be pretty high
91
00:03:01,941 --> 00:03:04,002
for him to get burns like that.
Well, sure.
92
00:03:04,122 --> 00:03:06,390
You connect these leads directly
into the ignition system,
93
00:03:06,510 --> 00:03:07,935
you rev the engine
high enough...
94
00:03:08,055 --> 00:03:09,347
Looks like they were
trying to torture him,
95
00:03:09,348 --> 00:03:10,600
but ended up
killing him instead.
96
00:03:10,910 --> 00:03:12,328
Either way,
it wasn't pleasant.
97
00:03:12,762 --> 00:03:13,977
You know, whoever did this
98
00:03:14,721 --> 00:03:16,171
either wanted
to send a message
99
00:03:16,291 --> 00:03:17,594
or needed something
from him.
100
00:03:17,714 --> 00:03:19,627
What would somebody need
from a retired...
101
00:03:21,958 --> 00:03:22,794
What?
102
00:03:23,352 --> 00:03:25,385
His eyes are closed.
(Camera shutter clicks)
103
00:03:26,761 --> 00:03:28,329
Did anyone touch the body
before you came here?
104
00:03:28,775 --> 00:03:30,523
Nope. It was like that
when I got here.
105
00:03:30,643 --> 00:03:32,420
The killer must have
closed 'em postmortem.
106
00:03:32,540 --> 00:03:33,805
That means he knew the victim.
That means he knew our victim.
107
00:03:35,380 --> 00:03:37,847
I would say, he probably felt
guilty about what he had done,
108
00:03:37,967 --> 00:03:39,062
wanted to erase it.
109
00:03:39,182 --> 00:03:41,175
Have C.S.U. sweep the cars,
and let's fume the body.
110
00:03:41,295 --> 00:03:43,260
Maybe we'll get some prints
off of his eyelids.
111
00:03:43,380 --> 00:03:44,537
You got it.

(Castle) What is it?
115
00:03:53,607 --> 00:03:54,376
You tell me.
116
00:03:54,859 --> 00:03:55,603
Maybe he was murdered
117
00:03:55,723 --> 00:03:57,093
by the artist
formerly known as Prince.
118
00:03:59,003 --> 00:04:01,098
(Beckett) Mrs. Finch,
we're very sorry for your loss.
119
00:04:01,556 --> 00:04:02,739
Does this...
120
00:04:02,859 --> 00:04:04,673
Look familiar to you at all?
121
00:04:05,888 --> 00:04:07,152
No, I'm sorry.
122
00:04:07,524 --> 00:04:08,711
Look, I know
what my husband was,
123
00:04:08,831 --> 00:04:11,600
but Paul had been out of
the game since he left prison.
124
00:04:12,629 --> 00:04:14,780
When we got married,
he swore off taking scores.
125
00:04:15,858 --> 00:04:16,817
Then a few weeks ago, he said
126
00:04:16,937 --> 00:04:18,852
he had to go do something
for a friend.
127
00:04:19,236 --> 00:04:21,641
Did he tell you what or who?
No.
128
00:04:22,719 --> 00:04:23,953
I begged him not to do it,
but he...
129
00:04:25,019 --> 00:04:26,577
He said he owed the guy
from way back.
130
00:04:27,544 --> 00:04:28,932
Paul was a thief,
Detective,
131
00:04:30,035 --> 00:04:31,470
but he had
this sense of honor.
132
00:04:32,505 --> 00:04:34,151
He was old-fashioned
like that.
133
00:04:35,377 --> 00:04:37,532
He was a good man,
Detective.
134
00:04:38,065 --> 00:04:39,779
I mean, God knows
he had his faults,
135
00:04:40,634 --> 00:04:41,567
this?
136
00:04:43,142 --> 00:04:44,530
He didn't deserve this.
137
00:04:48,358 --> 00:04:50,011
(Castle) So the guy
comes out of retirement
138
00:04:50,131 --> 00:04:51,599
for one job
and ends up dead.
139
00:04:51,958 --> 00:04:53,186
That cannot be a coincidence.
140
00:04:53,306 --> 00:04:54,901
Yeah, what lures a guy
who's been retired for years
141
00:04:55,021 --> 00:04:56,785
back into the game?
Must've been something big.
142
00:04:56,905 --> 00:04:59,328
That was robbery on the phone.
They logged in a break-in
143
00:04:59,448 --> 00:05:01,808
at a branch of Manhattan Mutual
the day before yesterday.
144
00:05:02,167 --> 00:05:04,252
Bank heist. That fits
with Finch's profile.
145
00:05:04,372 --> 00:05:05,876
Did they have any details?
Nope.
146
00:05:05,996 --> 00:05:07,180
They're sending
the new guy up now.
147
00:05:07,428 --> 00:05:08,519
And that would be me.
148
00:05:08,829 --> 00:05:11,767
Oh-ho! What's up, bro?
149
00:05:11,887 --> 00:05:13,506
How you doing?
Why didn't you tell me you transferred?
150
00:05:13,626 --> 00:05:14,919
Ah, you know,
I been settling in.
151
00:05:15,039 --> 00:05:16,989
Hey, uh, this is my boy--
Tom Demming.
152
00:05:17,311 --> 00:05:19,047
He was one of the best cops
back at the 54th.
153
00:05:19,568 --> 00:05:20,971
This is my partner--Ryan.
How you doing?
154
00:05:21,091 --> 00:05:22,310
Hey, nice to meet you, man.
You, too.
155
00:05:22,430 --> 00:05:23,946
(Esposito) Richard Castle.
Yeah, the author, right?
156
00:05:24,066 --> 00:05:25,870
That's right.
And this is Detective Beckett.
157
00:05:26,267 --> 00:05:28,448
Yeah, we met.
Yes. Hi.
158
00:05:28,758 --> 00:05:30,643
Hi.
(Chuckles)
159
00:05:30,763 --> 00:05:34,222
So Paul Finch, huh? He's one of
the few guys on the island
160
00:05:34,342 --> 00:05:35,548
who could've taken
a score like that.
161
00:05:35,668 --> 00:05:36,392
Like what?
162
00:05:36,512 --> 00:05:37,979
A couple of pros
tunnel into the vault,
163
00:05:38,537 --> 00:05:40,859
drill open a safe deposit box,
leave nothing behind
164
00:05:40,979 --> 00:05:42,910
but the great smell of brut.
And you think
165
00:05:43,030 --> 00:05:44,868
that Finch couldn't have
pulled this off on his own?
166
00:05:44,988 --> 00:05:46,764
Nah, it's a 2-man job
at the minimum.
167
00:05:46,884 --> 00:05:47,934
There's definitely
another player
168
00:05:48,054 --> 00:05:49,178
floating around out there.
169
00:05:49,298 --> 00:05:50,554
Well, we've run a search
170
00:05:50,674 --> 00:05:52,376
for his phone records
and financials, so hopefully
171
00:05:52,496 --> 00:05:54,142
we'll find something
that ties him to a partner.
172
00:05:54,262 --> 00:05:56,497
Or maybe the partner turned on
Finch after the robbery,
173
00:05:56,617 --> 00:05:57,940
decided he didn't need him anymore.
174
00:05:58,238 --> 00:05:59,118
Either way, we know that
175
00:05:59,238 --> 00:06:00,544
the robbery and the homicide
are connected.
176
00:06:00,953 --> 00:06:02,465
That seems like
an awful lot of trouble
177
00:06:02,585 --> 00:06:04,465
for one safe deposit box.
Yeah.
178
00:06:04,689 --> 00:06:06,449
And they left
stacks of cash untouched.
179
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,383
The guys downstairs
thought I was nuts
180
00:06:08,503 --> 00:06:10,547
when I hopped on this case,
but I like the weird ones.
181
00:06:10,827 --> 00:06:13,058
Hmm. How about that? Beckett
likes the weird ones, too.
182
00:06:13,442 --> 00:06:14,452
Yeah.
183
00:06:15,010 --> 00:06:16,305
(Castle) What could be
in that box
184
00:06:16,425 --> 00:06:18,846
that would be worth digging
tunnel to and killing for?
185
00:06:18,966 --> 00:06:20,842
Diamonds?
German bearer bonds?
186
00:06:20,962 --> 00:06:21,783
Nazi gold?
187
00:06:21,903 --> 00:06:22,911
Ah, we still
don't know yet.
188
00:06:23,196 --> 00:06:24,956
The bank had some trouble
locating the owner,
189
00:06:25,076 --> 00:06:26,692
but he's supposed to be
coming in this afternoon.
190
00:06:27,039 --> 00:06:28,614
Would you like to join me
for the interrogation?
191
00:06:28,734 --> 00:06:30,052
Yeah. Yeah, I'd love to.
192
00:06:30,172 --> 00:06:31,093
(Demming) Good.
193
00:06:31,213 --> 00:06:32,866
Meanwhile, I'm gonna need
you guys to hit the street
194
00:06:32,986 --> 00:06:34,537
and see if you can scare up
any of Finch's associates--
195
00:06:34,657 --> 00:06:36,904
maybe anyone that he's
taken scores with in the past
196
00:06:37,024 --> 00:06:38,572
or people that he owes.
197
00:06:39,055 --> 00:06:40,493
Thank you.
You got it.
198
00:06:41,250 --> 00:06:42,291
What can I do?
199
00:06:42,411 --> 00:06:43,353
You could watch.
200
00:06:45,547 --> 00:06:47,183
Two weeks ago,
I saved your life twice.
201
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:51,638
(Beckett) Thank you
for coming in, Mr. Cana.
202
00:06:52,716 --> 00:06:53,981
Call me Fred.
203
00:06:54,101 --> 00:06:55,642
Demming) And obviously,
we're gonna do everything we can
204
00:06:55,762 --> 00:06:56,986
to help you recover
your stolen property.
205
00:06:57,106 --> 00:06:58,908
Uh, what exactly
was in the box?
206
00:06:59,379 --> 00:07:01,201
Stamps.
Stamps?
207
00:07:01,598 --> 00:07:02,532
Yeah, I collect 'em.
208
00:07:02,652 --> 00:07:03,759
It kinda surprises me
209
00:07:03,879 --> 00:07:05,582
it took you so long
to reach out to us.
210
00:07:06,102 --> 00:07:08,594
The folks at the bank said they
left you a half a dozen messages
211
00:07:08,714 --> 00:07:09,883
over the last couple of days.
212
00:07:10,106 --> 00:07:11,383
Well, I been busy, you know?
213
00:07:11,711 --> 00:07:12,690
I been working a lot.
214
00:07:13,075 --> 00:07:14,116
And what is it
that you do?
215
00:07:14,500 --> 00:07:16,690
I'm in,
uh, private security.
216
00:07:17,756 --> 00:07:20,099
This stamp collection,
how much was it worth exactly?
217
00:07:21,289 --> 00:07:22,876
Well, it's hard
to put a price tag
218
00:07:22,996 --> 00:07:23,868
on an item like that
219
00:07:23,988 --> 00:07:26,464
because of, you know,
the sentimental value.
220
00:07:26,823 --> 00:07:28,968
And who else knew that you
were keeping it at the bank?
221
00:07:29,088 --> 00:07:31,907
Just a select group
of other stamp enthusiasts
222
00:07:32,027 --> 00:07:35,965
with whom I formed...
relationships over the years.
223
00:07:36,213 --> 00:07:37,899
So how long you been
a philatelist, Fred?
224
00:07:38,019 --> 00:07:40,834
Hey, watch your mouth, pal.
Fred Cana don't go that route.
225
00:07:41,540 --> 00:07:43,754
Philately is the study
of stamps, Mr. Cana,
226
00:07:44,014 --> 00:07:46,766
which you would know if you
were, in fact, a collector.
227
00:07:48,742 --> 00:07:50,864
Come on, Fred.
What's really in the box, huh?
228
00:07:50,984 --> 00:07:52,091
What'd they steal from you?
229
00:07:52,211 --> 00:07:53,467
I don't
have to take this crap.
230
00:07:53,740 --> 00:07:54,751
I'm the victim here.
231
00:07:55,421 --> 00:07:57,062
(cell phone ringing)
232
00:07:57,182 --> 00:07:58,173
(Ryan) Hey.
233
00:07:58,293 --> 00:08:00,121
Hey, you guys rounding up
the usual suspects?
234
00:08:00,356 --> 00:08:02,052
Yeah, and every hood
this side of Harlem
235
00:08:02,172 --> 00:08:03,676
says Finch has been
out of action for years.
236
00:08:04,283 --> 00:08:05,076
Where's Beckett?
237
00:08:05,196 --> 00:08:07,503
Oh, she and Captain America
are in there with Fred Cana.
238
00:08:08,210 --> 00:08:09,127
Fred Cana?
239
00:08:09,247 --> 00:08:11,296
Yeah, he's the guy
who rented the safety...
240
00:08:11,416 --> 00:08:14,706
(Paper clips clatter)
241
00:08:14,826 --> 00:08:16,702
(Chuckles)
Officer Esposito!
242
00:08:16,822 --> 00:08:18,643
Actually, it's
Detective Esposito now, Fred.
243
00:08:18,763 --> 00:08:20,044
Congratulations.
244
00:08:20,267 --> 00:08:22,250
Fred here is a bagman
for Victor Racine.
245
00:08:22,370 --> 00:08:23,730
Who's Victor Racine?
246
00:08:23,850 --> 00:08:24,920
(Demming)
He's a syndicate man.
247
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,395
Made the leap
from organized crime
248
00:08:26,515 --> 00:08:28,552
to legitimate businessman
while no one was looking.
249
00:08:28,672 --> 00:08:30,493
Racine is connected
and untouchable.
250
00:08:30,772 --> 00:08:33,431
You oughta know.
Esposito and his old partner
251
00:08:33,551 --> 00:08:34,965
tried to touch him
a few years back.
252
00:08:35,085 --> 00:08:37,715
How about I touch you instead?!
Come on! Come on, tough guy!
253
00:08:37,835 --> 00:08:39,289
Let's go, man!
(Ryan) Come on.
Take a walk.
254
00:08:39,409 --> 00:08:41,603
All right?
He's not worth it. Man...
255
00:08:46,458 --> 00:08:48,152
(Demming) Let's go.
Take a walk.
256
00:08:48,272 --> 00:08:49,764
What the hell
was that all about?
257
00:08:49,774 --> 00:08:51,074
He works for Victor Racine.
258
00:08:51,099 --> 00:08:51,890
So?
259
00:08:53,018 --> 00:08:54,493
Victor Racine
killed my partner.
260
00:09:02,448 --> 00:09:04,839
? Castle 2x21 ?
Den of Thieves
Original Air Date on April 19, 2010
261
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,955
-- Sync, corrected by elderman --
-- for www.addic7ed.com --
262
00:09:08,771 --> 00:09:11,299
His name was Ike.
Ike Thornton.
263
00:09:12,502 --> 00:09:14,337
We partnered up
back when I was at the 54th.
264
00:09:15,452 --> 00:09:17,811
We worked
the organized crime task force.
265
00:09:18,853 --> 00:09:20,340
Victor Racine was our target...
266
00:09:22,002 --> 00:09:24,371
until one day,
Ike didn't come into work.
267
00:09:25,325 --> 00:09:26,763
It's like he just disappeared.
268
00:09:26,883 --> 00:09:28,191
To make matters worse,
269
00:09:28,798 --> 00:09:30,137
Internal Affairs
came around here
270
00:09:30,257 --> 00:09:33,807
asking all these questions,
talking like Ike had gone over,
271
00:09:34,513 --> 00:09:35,989
that he was working for Racine.
272
00:09:36,224 --> 00:09:37,833
It was
an absolute load of crap.
273
00:09:38,418 --> 00:09:39,484
Couple of days later,
274
00:09:39,604 --> 00:09:41,917
some kids found Ike's car
out by the docks...
275
00:09:42,361 --> 00:09:44,791
shot to hell,
blood all over the seats.
276
00:09:45,634 --> 00:09:47,282
All the hallmarks
of a professional hit.
277
00:09:47,402 --> 00:09:50,309
Yeah, only we couldn't
tie it back to Racine.
278
00:09:50,954 --> 00:09:53,986
His guys had dumped Ike's body
so that we could never find it.
279
00:09:55,523 --> 00:09:57,274
The department shut down
the whole operation after that.
280
00:09:57,906 --> 00:10:00,658
I transferred here.
But I know one thing--
281
00:10:01,639 --> 00:10:03,473
if Fred Cana
has a safe deposit box,
282
00:10:04,254 --> 00:10:06,176
it's because he's
holding something for Racine.
283
00:10:07,136 --> 00:10:08,277
And it ain't no stamps.
284
00:10:09,194 --> 00:10:10,347
(Beckett)
He wants blood.
285
00:10:11,078 --> 00:10:12,727
Well, I don't blame him.
From the look of it,
286
00:10:12,847 --> 00:10:15,135
I'm guessing Racine had Finch
killed for stealing from him.
287
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,342
Well, that explains
why he was tortured--
288
00:10:17,580 --> 00:10:18,919
so he'd give up his partner.
289
00:10:19,291 --> 00:10:21,425
You know, whatever they stole
from that safe deposit box,
290
00:10:21,545 --> 00:10:23,036
Racine wants it back bad.
291
00:10:23,156 --> 00:10:24,832
Yeah, but how did he get
onto Finch in the first place?
292
00:10:25,179 --> 00:10:27,398
Maybe he recognized
the great smell of Brut.
(Chuckles)
293
00:10:28,043 --> 00:10:30,240
I'm sure that Racine is the kind
of guy who has his sources.
294
00:10:30,538 --> 00:10:31,815
So you like
our stamp collector
295
00:10:31,935 --> 00:10:33,305
for doing the deed
on Racine's behalf?
296
00:10:33,528 --> 00:10:34,867
Sure, except we called.
297
00:10:35,387 --> 00:10:37,557
He has witnesses willing
to corroborate his whereabouts.
298
00:10:37,677 --> 00:10:39,666
Of course he does.
And we have no proof otherwise.
299
00:10:40,050 --> 00:10:42,467
Oh, speaking of which, they
brought up the C.S.U. report
300
00:10:42,587 --> 00:10:43,638
on the crime scene.
301
00:10:44,159 --> 00:10:45,225
The car was wiped down.
302
00:10:45,560 --> 00:10:48,056
Other than Finch and his wife,
we got no usable prints.
303
00:10:48,626 --> 00:10:51,019
And we still don't have an I.D.
On that metal symbol we found.
304
00:10:51,304 --> 00:10:53,929
Meanwhile, our stamp collector
has an alibi,
305
00:10:54,049 --> 00:10:55,925
and we currently have
no evidence.
306
00:10:56,045 --> 00:10:57,182
So what is our next step?
307
00:10:57,938 --> 00:10:59,476
We talk to the real victim
of our robbery--
308
00:11:00,591 --> 00:11:01,762
Mr. Victor Racine.
309
00:11:02,618 --> 00:11:04,589
Bold.
I like your style.
310
00:11:04,948 --> 00:11:06,277
What, you think
he's the kind of guy
311
00:11:06,397 --> 00:11:07,727
who's just gonna tell us
what's in that box
312
00:11:07,847 --> 00:11:09,493
or maybe admit
to killing the thief?
313
00:11:10,485 --> 00:11:12,815
Watch and learn, Castle.
Watch and learn.
314
00:11:21,529 --> 00:11:23,649
To what do I owe
this pleasure, huh?
315
00:11:25,484 --> 00:11:26,489
(Whoosh, applause)
316
00:11:27,208 --> 00:11:29,148
A safe deposit box
at Manhattan Mutual
317
00:11:29,268 --> 00:11:31,330
was broken into
the other night, Mr. Racine.
318
00:11:31,737 --> 00:11:33,429
It was registered
to an associate of yours--
319
00:11:33,549 --> 00:11:34,261
Fred Cana.
320
00:11:34,381 --> 00:11:36,356
You don't say? What's
this world coming to, huh?
321
00:11:37,410 --> 00:11:39,643
Mr. Cana claims
that the box contained
322
00:11:39,763 --> 00:11:40,945
his stamp collection?
323
00:11:41,552 --> 00:11:44,130
Well, I've never known
Mr. Cana to lie...
324
00:11:44,552 --> 00:11:45,983
(Whoosh)
325
00:11:46,103 --> 00:11:47,483
To me.
(Water splashes, crowd groans)
326
00:11:47,603 --> 00:11:48,817
Well, we believe
that it held something
327
00:11:48,937 --> 00:11:50,999
a little bit more valuable--
maybe something of yours.
328
00:11:51,693 --> 00:11:52,982
Oh, really?
And why is that?
329
00:11:53,206 --> 00:11:54,927
Because one of the guys
involved in the robbery
330
00:11:55,047 --> 00:11:57,319
was found murdered
in a parking garage last night.
331
00:11:57,439 --> 00:12:00,710
Well, actually, Mr. Finch was
tortured before he was killed.
332
00:12:00,830 --> 00:12:03,444
Now why would someone do that
if all he stole were stamps?
333
00:12:03,564 --> 00:12:05,709
Hmm.
Where were you last night?
334
00:12:08,099 --> 00:12:09,017
Home.
335
00:12:10,355 --> 00:12:12,103
(Whoosh)
336
00:12:12,413 --> 00:12:14,109
And I have
around-the-clock bodyguards...
(Applause)
337
00:12:14,229 --> 00:12:16,266
Who can attest
to my whereabouts,
338
00:12:16,386 --> 00:12:18,611
but you don't think
I killed Finch.
339
00:12:19,317 --> 00:12:21,277
You assume I had somebody
do it for me,
340
00:12:21,397 --> 00:12:22,496
so you're here just to...
341
00:12:24,187 --> 00:12:25,563
count coup, aren't you?
342
00:12:26,989 --> 00:12:28,117
Sorry. What was that?
343
00:12:28,365 --> 00:12:30,742
The plains Indians
considered it an act of bravery
344
00:12:30,862 --> 00:12:32,264
to get close enough
to one of their enemies
345
00:12:32,384 --> 00:12:33,843
to touch him with a coup stick.
Is my hair...
346
00:12:33,963 --> 00:12:34,921
Looks good.
Thanks.
347
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,569
This item or items that were
in the safety deposit box,
348
00:12:37,689 --> 00:12:38,861
if they're so valuable,
349
00:12:38,981 --> 00:12:41,892
why aren't you out chasing down
Mr. Finch's associate
350
00:12:42,012 --> 00:12:43,195
in this endeavor?
351
00:12:43,315 --> 00:12:44,844
After all, you know whatthe old saying is--
352
00:12:45,245 --> 00:12:47,239
no honor among thieves.
353
00:12:47,585 --> 00:12:49,564
(Club smacks golf ball)
(Whoosh)
354
00:12:50,271 --> 00:12:53,292
See, what'd I say?
Waste of time.
355
00:12:54,329 --> 00:12:55,450
Well played, Detective.
356
00:12:55,795 --> 00:12:57,307
Thank you, Detective.
357
00:12:57,427 --> 00:12:59,448
"Well played"?
All he did was deny it.
358
00:12:59,930 --> 00:13:02,676
Well, you can learn a lot from a denial.
Like what?
359
00:13:02,955 --> 00:13:05,061
Like Racine hasn't found
Finch's partner yet.
360
00:13:05,689 --> 00:13:08,410
Because Racine would never
point us in that direction
361
00:13:08,530 --> 00:13:11,077
if he already knew who
or where the partner was.
362
00:13:11,365 --> 00:13:12,795
He must want this guy
pretty bad
363
00:13:12,915 --> 00:13:14,773
if he's willing to have the cops
do his legwork for him.
364
00:13:14,893 --> 00:13:17,074
How does it help Racine if we
find Finch's partner first?
365
00:13:17,194 --> 00:13:18,399
(Cell phone rings)
Racine's connected.
366
00:13:18,519 --> 00:13:20,795
He'd have no trouble having
Finch's partner killed in jail.
367
00:13:21,064 --> 00:13:22,163
Beckett.
368
00:13:23,768 --> 00:13:26,020
Okay. We'll be right there.
(Beep)
369
00:13:26,140 --> 00:13:27,812
Lanie's ready
to fume the body.
370
00:13:27,932 --> 00:13:29,243
All right, you guys
head back to the morgue.
371
00:13:29,363 --> 00:13:31,283
I'm gonna go see if Finch's
financials have come in yet.
372
00:13:31,683 --> 00:13:32,773
Okay.
373
00:13:37,893 --> 00:13:38,765
What?
374
00:13:38,885 --> 00:13:40,104
Nothing.
375
00:13:45,498 --> 00:13:48,027
(Castle) That is so cool.
376
00:13:49,074 --> 00:13:50,696
Do you mind
if I take pictures?
377
00:13:50,816 --> 00:13:52,004
Knock yourself out.
378
00:13:52,124 --> 00:13:53,689
But if any of them
end up on the Internet,
379
00:13:53,809 --> 00:13:55,503
I will hunt you down
and hurt you.
380
00:13:55,623 --> 00:13:57,142
(Mouths word)
381
00:13:57,962 --> 00:13:58,881
So...
382
00:13:59,001 --> 00:14:00,765
What's with
the handsome robbery Detective?
383
00:14:00,885 --> 00:14:02,177
Demming?
384
00:14:02,297 --> 00:14:04,105
Oh, we're just working
the case together. That's all.
385
00:14:04,225 --> 00:14:06,739
Mm-hmm.
But then again,
386
00:14:06,859 --> 00:14:08,448
you have been working
with Castle for a
387
00:14:08,568 --> 00:14:10,529
and not a damn thing
has happened, so...
388
00:14:10,808 --> 00:14:12,186
We had a pool going.
389
00:14:12,692 --> 00:14:14,643
I lost a lot of money
on you two.
390
00:14:14,763 --> 00:14:16,023
(knocking on window)
391
00:14:16,143 --> 00:14:17,354
You guys.
392
00:14:18,487 --> 00:14:20,440
(Beckett) Yahtzee.
The killer left a print
393
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,307
when he closed our victim's eye.
Let's run it.
394
00:14:22,427 --> 00:14:26,342
(Beeping)
395
00:14:26,462 --> 00:14:27,981
(Chirps)
396
00:14:28,634 --> 00:14:29,837
Huh.
397
00:14:29,957 --> 00:14:31,119
What?
398
00:14:31,239 --> 00:14:32,933
We got a match
on the print,
399
00:14:33,269 --> 00:14:36,469
but the guy it belongs to
is dead.
400
00:14:37,089 --> 00:14:39,887
But that's impossible.
Unless he's a zombie.
401
00:14:40,742 --> 00:14:42,015
Not a zombie.
402
00:14:42,135 --> 00:14:44,041
(Chirps)
A cop.
403
00:14:44,161 --> 00:14:46,074
Isaac...
"Ike" Thornton.
404
00:14:46,347 --> 00:14:48,615
Esposito's old partner?
He's alive?
405
00:14:53,140 --> 00:14:54,710
I went to his funeral,
406
00:14:55,006 --> 00:14:56,401
held his wife's hand.
407
00:14:56,663 --> 00:14:58,933
And now you're telling me he's
alive and working for Racine,
408
00:14:59,053 --> 00:15:00,346
that he murdered Finch?
409
00:15:00,466 --> 00:15:01,951
It was
the perfect disappearing act.
410
00:15:02,071 --> 00:15:03,067
He knew
that everyone would think
411
00:15:03,187 --> 00:15:05,212
that Racine had killed him
and dumped his body somewhere.
412
00:15:05,332 --> 00:15:09,106
Nah, I don't see how he could
do it, to the badge, to me?
413
00:15:09,420 --> 00:15:10,691
I would've taken a bullet for him.
414
00:15:10,701 --> 00:15:11,701
Esposito.
415
00:15:12,350 --> 00:15:13,842
This is lieutenant Holliwell
from Internal Affairs.
416
00:15:13,962 --> 00:15:15,338
We've met.
417
00:15:15,458 --> 00:15:16,512
You called I.A.?
No.
418
00:15:16,632 --> 00:15:18,274
I called 'em
for your protection.
419
00:15:18,394 --> 00:15:19,371
I'm sorry, Detective.
420
00:15:19,491 --> 00:15:20,906
I don't really enjoy
being proved right.
421
00:15:21,678 --> 00:15:23,213
No, of course not.
422
00:15:23,545 --> 00:15:25,481
I take it you were
the investigating officer
423
00:15:25,601 --> 00:15:26,848
when Ike Thornton disappeared?
I was.
424
00:15:26,968 --> 00:15:28,731
And what put you onto him
in the first place?
425
00:15:29,255 --> 00:15:30,824
Racine was always
one step ahead of us,
426
00:15:31,574 --> 00:15:33,264
like he always knew
what we were thinking.
427
00:15:33,805 --> 00:15:35,200
It didn't take too much
to figure out
428
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:36,965
that he was being tipped off
by a cop.
429
00:15:39,756 --> 00:15:41,957
Luckily, we had an informant
at the time that confirmed it,
430
00:15:42,568 --> 00:15:44,015
but before we were able
to arrest Thornton,
431
00:15:44,135 --> 00:15:45,672
he disappeared.
432
00:15:46,370 --> 00:15:48,062
Most likely found out
that we were coming for him.
433
00:15:48,182 --> 00:15:50,619
When we found his car, we just
assumed Racine killed him.
434
00:15:50,739 --> 00:15:52,660
Looks like he brought him
into the family instead.
435
00:15:52,780 --> 00:15:54,187
Has Thornton contacted you?
436
00:15:54,833 --> 00:15:57,048
What do you mean, contacted me?
Whoa, whoa.
437
00:15:57,168 --> 00:15:58,788
What exactly are you
accusing my partner of?
438
00:15:58,908 --> 00:16:00,247
I'm not accusing.
I'm asking.
439
00:16:00,367 --> 00:16:01,294
Asking what...
440
00:16:02,584 --> 00:16:05,153
If I knew all along,
if I was part of it?
441
00:16:06,391 --> 00:16:07,545
The answer's no.
442
00:16:07,665 --> 00:16:09,743
It was such an elaborate hoax.
It seems like it would take
443
00:16:09,863 --> 00:16:11,113
a little bit of planning,
a little help.
444
00:16:11,233 --> 00:16:13,119
I just told you,
I didn't know.
445
00:16:13,939 --> 00:16:15,190
What do you want me to do,
take a poly?
446
00:16:15,310 --> 00:16:16,261
Would you
take a polygraph test?
447
00:16:16,381 --> 00:16:17,708
Wait a minute--
if it'll get you off my back.
448
00:16:17,828 --> 00:16:19,120
Esposito, you don't
have to do this.
449
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:20,452
I want to.
Good.
450
00:16:21,344 --> 00:16:23,210
My office.
One hour.
451
00:16:37,439 --> 00:16:39,566
(Footsteps approach)
452
00:16:39,686 --> 00:16:41,347
That guy was out of line
back there.
453
00:16:42,051 --> 00:16:44,119
I'd be asking the same questions
if I was in his shoes.
454
00:16:46,102 --> 00:16:47,289
You know
you can talk to me, right?
455
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:49,821
I put all that stuff
behind me, bro.
456
00:16:50,384 --> 00:16:51,697
The only thing
I have left from back then...
457
00:16:52,556 --> 00:16:55,313
(Metal jangles)
Is this right here.
458
00:16:56,129 --> 00:16:57,471
Back in the day,
when I was in the 54th,
459
00:16:57,591 --> 00:16:59,215
everybody used to carry
one of these with 'em.
460
00:16:59,651 --> 00:17:00,886
It was like a sense of pride,
you know?
461
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:02,264
Ike had one of those?
462
00:17:02,912 --> 00:17:03,648
Yeah. Why?
463
00:17:03,768 --> 00:17:05,815
Let me see it.
(Clatters)
464
00:17:06,128 --> 00:17:07,829
(Keys jangle)
465
00:17:11,389 --> 00:17:12,542
The 54th.
466
00:17:12,662 --> 00:17:14,532
It must have broken off when
he was struggling with Finch.
467
00:17:15,658 --> 00:17:16,912
It was him.
468
00:17:22,087 --> 00:17:24,647
You know no one would blame you
if you stepped off this case.
469
00:17:26,715 --> 00:17:28,445
No.
470
00:17:28,565 --> 00:17:29,939
Partner or not...
471
00:17:31,079 --> 00:17:32,247
He killed a man.
472
00:17:32,367 --> 00:17:34,308
(Castle) This guy's pulled
a ghost routine for years--
473
00:17:35,208 --> 00:17:36,685
gave up his old life,
his friends.
474
00:17:37,009 --> 00:17:38,638
A guy can't pull
a disappearing act like that
475
00:17:38,758 --> 00:17:40,425
without help from somebody.
476
00:17:40,545 --> 00:17:41,592
He had Racine's help.
477
00:17:41,712 --> 00:17:44,477
Well, Racine or no Racine, he
was married, right, has a kid?
478
00:17:44,997 --> 00:17:46,503
They must have known.
479
00:17:46,623 --> 00:17:48,695
I saw Carol last month.
She doesn't know anything.
480
00:17:49,060 --> 00:17:50,200
You sure about that?
481
00:17:50,903 --> 00:17:52,474
Hell, I'm not sure
about anything anymore.
482
00:17:53,698 --> 00:17:54,528
Where you going?
483
00:17:54,936 --> 00:17:56,963
Take a poly,
clear my name.
484
00:17:59,239 --> 00:18:01,195
Go pick up the wife.
Let's see what she knows.
485
00:18:03,075 --> 00:18:04,929
I'm sorry.
I don't believe you.
486
00:18:05,049 --> 00:18:06,772
His thumbprint's
on our victim's body, Carol.
487
00:18:06,892 --> 00:18:08,910
He's alive.
There's no other explanation.
488
00:18:10,318 --> 00:18:12,991
Well, they never recovered
Ike's body, so I don't know.
489
00:18:13,111 --> 00:18:15,410
Someone could've
cut off his thumb and--
490
00:18:15,530 --> 00:18:18,499
yes, they could've done that,
but you know they didn't.
491
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,623
Come on, Carol.
It's been years.
492
00:18:22,503 --> 00:18:24,357
An attractive woman like you
hasn't found someone new?
493
00:18:25,694 --> 00:18:27,424
It's not easy
when you're a single mom.
494
00:18:28,113 --> 00:18:29,527
Not that
that's any of your business.
495
00:18:31,130 --> 00:18:32,276
You know what you get
496
00:18:32,396 --> 00:18:33,781
when a cop dies
with a warrant out on him?
497
00:18:35,166 --> 00:18:36,136
Well, I'll tell you
what you don't get.
498
00:18:36,783 --> 00:18:38,675
You don't get a folded flag
and you sure as hell
499
00:18:38,795 --> 00:18:40,249
don't get a Penny
of his pension.
500
00:18:40,488 --> 00:18:42,810
And yet, you somehow manage
to make mortgage payments--
501
00:18:42,930 --> 00:18:45,439
if Ike is alive,
that means we're still married.
502
00:18:46,341 --> 00:18:49,057
And you can't compel me
to testify against my spouse.
503
00:18:50,970 --> 00:18:52,569
She knew he was alive,
but did she know
504
00:18:52,689 --> 00:18:53,877
he was working for Racine?
505
00:18:53,997 --> 00:18:55,537
She's a cop wife
and she knows her rights.
506
00:18:55,776 --> 00:18:57,147
Good luck getting anything
out of her.
507
00:18:57,738 --> 00:18:58,905
She might talk to me.
508
00:18:59,025 --> 00:19:00,189
Oh.
509
00:19:00,309 --> 00:19:01,722
Look who passed his poly.
Yeah.
510
00:19:02,074 --> 00:19:03,903
Had the feeling that Holliwell
was kinda disappointed.
511
00:19:04,254 --> 00:19:05,450
(Chuckles)
512
00:19:05,872 --> 00:19:06,967
She knows me.
513
00:19:07,087 --> 00:19:08,233
I might be able
to get her to open up.
514
00:19:08,500 --> 00:19:09,705
All right, take a run
at her in the morning.
515
00:19:09,825 --> 00:19:10,971
And I'll get a unit
down to the house
516
00:19:11,091 --> 00:19:12,357
in case Ike decides
to show up.
517
00:19:12,700 --> 00:19:13,767
Right.
518
00:19:19,732 --> 00:19:21,865
Betrayal, lies, deceit--
519
00:19:22,144 --> 00:19:23,370
sounds like
my first marriage.
520
00:19:25,809 --> 00:19:27,125
What?
I'm trying to figure out
521
00:19:27,245 --> 00:19:29,188
what was so damn important
in that safe deposit box
522
00:19:29,308 --> 00:19:31,949
that Finch and his partner
would risk their lives that way.
523
00:19:32,069 --> 00:19:33,126
(Keypad beeps)
524
00:19:33,246 --> 00:19:34,110
(Cell phone rings)
Who are you calling?
525
00:19:34,230 --> 00:19:36,758
Demming.
(Chuckles)
I was just calling you.
526
00:19:37,371 --> 00:19:39,075
What a coincidence.
I was just coming to see you.
527
00:19:39,195 --> 00:19:41,130
Wow. It's like we're all
on the same case.
528
00:19:41,701 --> 00:19:44,711
Esposito told me about Ike.
You have a lead on him yet?
529
00:19:44,831 --> 00:19:46,394
(Beckett) No.
We're working on it.
530
00:19:46,757 --> 00:19:47,974
What about Finch's partner?
531
00:19:48,094 --> 00:19:49,577
Ah, there's nothing
in his phone
532
00:19:49,697 --> 00:19:51,626
or his financials
that points to one.
533
00:19:51,746 --> 00:19:53,836
But the bank surveillance tapes
finally came in.
534
00:19:53,956 --> 00:19:55,425
I was gonna scrub 'em
in the morning.
535
00:19:55,829 --> 00:19:57,586
If Finch cased the joint
in the last couple of weeks--.
536
00:19:57,706 --> 00:20:00,220
then maybe the mystery partner
went with him
537
00:20:00,340 --> 00:20:02,325
Exactly.
You want to join me?
538
00:20:02,445 --> 00:20:03,559
Yeah. Yeah, I'd love to.
Great.
539
00:20:03,796 --> 00:20:04,673
I'll see you in the morning.
540
00:20:04,674 --> 00:20:06,730
Okay, great. I'll see you.
Good night.
541
00:20:07,483 --> 00:20:08,467
Good night.
542
00:20:10,465 --> 00:20:12,053
Castle,
can I ask you something?
543
00:20:13,168 --> 00:20:14,214
You and Beckett--
544
00:20:15,370 --> 00:20:16,536
is there, uh,
something going on?
545
00:20:16,656 --> 00:20:17,714
Me and Beckett?
Yeah.
546
00:20:17,834 --> 00:20:19,609
No.
Look, man, if I'm offsides--
547
00:20:19,729 --> 00:20:20,858
no flag on the play.
548
00:20:22,615 --> 00:20:25,100
Great. Okay. Great.
549
00:20:38,494 --> 00:20:40,794
Don't smile
when you have a good card.
550
00:20:41,435 --> 00:20:43,434
You need to develop
a poker face.
551
00:20:44,019 --> 00:20:46,122
Trust me.
It comes in handy.
552
00:20:47,799 --> 00:20:49,332
Except when it doesn't.
553
00:20:50,084 --> 00:20:51,297
Wh-what do you mean?
554
00:20:52,623 --> 00:20:53,710
Never mind.
555
00:20:55,508 --> 00:20:56,624
Pair of ladies.
556
00:20:56,744 --> 00:20:57,714
What have you got?
557
00:20:58,634 --> 00:21:00,293
(Sighs) Boom!
558
00:21:00,948 --> 00:21:03,141
Two cowboys! I win.
559
00:21:04,019 --> 00:21:05,203
Who's the daddy now?
560
00:21:05,998 --> 00:21:07,402
You win
like your grandmother.
561
00:21:07,522 --> 00:21:10,218
(Chuckles) So it looks like
I owe you
562
00:21:10,883 --> 00:21:12,569
one night of solo dish duty.
563
00:21:12,689 --> 00:21:15,587
And you owe me four days
of bed-making duty,
564
00:21:15,707 --> 00:21:17,706
three spa treatments,
two pairs of sunglasses
565
00:21:17,826 --> 00:21:19,688
and a Bulgari purse
for gram.
566
00:21:22,308 --> 00:21:23,353
What's wrong?
567
00:21:26,254 --> 00:21:27,675
I'm not used to losing.
568
00:21:30,170 --> 00:21:31,536
(Knock on door)
569
00:21:31,656 --> 00:21:32,855
(Lock clicks)
570
00:21:33,803 --> 00:21:35,029
Hey, Carol.
571
00:21:35,149 --> 00:21:36,534
Got a few minutes?
572
00:21:37,801 --> 00:21:40,853
Uncle Javi!
Hey, what's up, buddy?
573
00:21:40,973 --> 00:21:42,035
What's up?
How you doing?
574
00:21:42,155 --> 00:21:44,386
Good.
Good. Oh, man, you lookin' tall.
575
00:21:45,437 --> 00:21:47,344
Mm-hmm.
Hey, this is my boy--Kevin.
576
00:21:47,972 --> 00:21:50,429
Hi. I'm Tim.
Nice to meet you, Tim.
577
00:21:51,024 --> 00:21:52,235
Hey, he loves baseball cards.
578
00:21:52,355 --> 00:21:54,075
Why don't you, uh, take him
upstairs, show him yours?
579
00:21:54,195 --> 00:21:55,619
Come on.
Yeah.
580
00:22:03,616 --> 00:22:04,675
How long have you known?
581
00:22:05,372 --> 00:22:07,184
(Coffee pot clatters)
582
00:22:07,602 --> 00:22:09,093
Carol, it'll be
a lot easier for him
583
00:22:09,213 --> 00:22:10,776
if you just tell me
where he is.
584
00:22:11,593 --> 00:22:12,643
(Sighs)
585
00:22:13,812 --> 00:22:14,982
So you can arrest him?
586
00:22:15,526 --> 00:22:16,557
Carol, he killed a man.
587
00:22:18,745 --> 00:22:19,505
No.
588
00:22:19,769 --> 00:22:21,316
His prints
were on the body.
589
00:22:21,436 --> 00:22:22,499
Please...
590
00:22:23,279 --> 00:22:24,924
Please...
591
00:22:25,551 --> 00:22:26,945
Do not try to find him...
592
00:22:28,756 --> 00:22:31,097
(Voice breaking) Not now,
not when we are so close.
593
00:22:31,502 --> 00:22:32,784
So close to what?
594
00:22:33,251 --> 00:22:34,268
(Sighs)
595
00:22:34,617 --> 00:22:35,983
I'm sorry.
596
00:22:37,641 --> 00:22:38,652
I can't.
597
00:22:47,315 --> 00:22:48,503
(Computer chirps)
598
00:22:48,623 --> 00:22:50,061
(Beeps)
599
00:22:50,772 --> 00:22:53,002
You know, if your mouse finger
gets tired, we can switch.
600
00:22:53,253 --> 00:22:55,109
That's okay.
I think I can handle it.
601
00:22:55,229 --> 00:22:55,960
Oh, I get it.
602
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:57,301
You don't want to give up
the driver's seat.
603
00:22:57,421 --> 00:22:58,402
(Knock on door)
604
00:22:58,522 --> 00:22:59,434
Hey, I brought coffee.
605
00:22:59,810 --> 00:23:01,985
Uh, you know what? It's okay.
Demming already brought some.
606
00:23:02,105 --> 00:23:03,041
Did he now?
607
00:23:04,462 --> 00:23:05,379
I...
608
00:23:06,508 --> 00:23:07,460
Hey, Paul Finch.
609
00:23:07,580 --> 00:23:09,565
(Beeps)
610
00:23:10,499 --> 00:23:12,496
Oh, yeah.
He's casing the place.
611
00:23:12,970 --> 00:23:14,363
(Beckett) And look
who his partner is.
612
00:23:14,614 --> 00:23:15,610
That's his wife Monica.
613
00:23:15,730 --> 00:23:17,408
She said she had no idea
what he was doing.
614
00:23:18,310 --> 00:23:19,411
There's someone else
with 'em.
615
00:23:19,531 --> 00:23:21,990
That's...
(Computer chirps and beeps)
616
00:23:22,854 --> 00:23:23,829
Ike Thornton.
617
00:23:23,949 --> 00:23:26,574
If he's working for Racine,
what's he doing with Finch?
618
00:23:29,723 --> 00:23:31,438
So Ike was working with Finch?
619
00:23:31,558 --> 00:23:34,002
Yeah, it looks that way.
I'm guessing he discovered
620
00:23:34,122 --> 00:23:35,898
Racine was keeping
something valuable in the box.
621
00:23:36,135 --> 00:23:37,850
He needed Finch's skills
to help him get it.
622
00:23:37,970 --> 00:23:39,048
But if they were
working together,
623
00:23:39,168 --> 00:23:41,085
why would he kill him?
(Castle)
Maybe Racine was right.
624
00:23:41,205 --> 00:23:42,938
Maybe there is no honor
amongst thieves.
625
00:23:43,058 --> 00:23:43,973
And maybe he didn't do it.
626
00:23:44,093 --> 00:23:45,172
We have him at the scene.
627
00:23:45,292 --> 00:23:47,655
Him working with Finch, what his
wife said, it doesn't add.
628
00:23:47,775 --> 00:23:49,080
Something else is going on.
629
00:23:50,390 --> 00:23:51,909
Looks like
we're about to find out what.
630
00:23:53,052 --> 00:23:55,031
(Beckett) Here's the thing,
Monica, we're not interested
631
00:23:55,151 --> 00:23:57,117
in whether you helped
your husband case the bank.
632
00:23:57,576 --> 00:23:58,691
All we care about
633
00:23:58,811 --> 00:24:01,088
is finding the guy
who killed him--Ike Thornton.
634
00:24:01,208 --> 00:24:03,508
You think Ike Thornton
killed Paul?
635
00:24:04,023 --> 00:24:05,765
Let me tell you
the kind of man Ike is.
636
00:24:06,407 --> 00:24:08,205
About 12 years back,
he collared Paul
637
00:24:08,325 --> 00:24:09,696
and his kid brother Barry
on a heist.
638
00:24:10,045 --> 00:24:11,564
Ike saw that Barry
was a first-timer,
639
00:24:11,684 --> 00:24:12,763
so he cut him a break.
640
00:24:12,883 --> 00:24:14,263
Paul went to jail
for five years,
641
00:24:14,383 --> 00:24:16,660
but he never forgot
what Ike did for his brother.
642
00:24:17,427 --> 00:24:19,632
That's why he did this last job
with him, as payback.
643
00:24:19,981 --> 00:24:21,458
Well, payback's a bitch,
because we found
644
00:24:21,578 --> 00:24:23,570
Ike's fingerprints
on your husband's body.
645
00:24:23,821 --> 00:24:24,654
I don't believe it..
646
00:24:24,700 --> 00:24:25,750
It doesn't matter
if you don't believe it
647
00:24:25,870 --> 00:24:27,128
The fact is, Ike was there.
648
00:24:27,616 --> 00:24:29,344
He tortured
and killed your husband.
649
00:24:29,846 --> 00:24:31,045
What was in the box, Monica?
650
00:24:31,644 --> 00:24:33,203
What did they steal
from Racine?
651
00:24:34,179 --> 00:24:35,879
It must have been
pretty valuable if Ike decided
652
00:24:35,999 --> 00:24:37,889
to kill your husband
so he wouldn't have to split it.
653
00:24:38,009 --> 00:24:40,314
(Laughs) Split it?
There was nothing to split.
654
00:24:40,434 --> 00:24:42,444
What was in the box?
655
00:24:43,768 --> 00:24:45,078
(Sighs)
656
00:24:45,371 --> 00:24:47,367
A book. A ledger.
657
00:24:47,487 --> 00:24:48,594
A ledger?
658
00:24:49,277 --> 00:24:51,548
Something that showed
all of Racine's pays and owes
659
00:24:51,668 --> 00:24:54,865
on all of his businesses,
not just his legitimate ones.
660
00:24:55,766 --> 00:24:58,776
An accounting of all of
Racine's illegal operations
661
00:24:58,896 --> 00:25:00,546
could be worth a bundle
in blackmail.
662
00:25:00,666 --> 00:25:02,992
It could if they'd gotten it,
but when they hit the bank,
663
00:25:03,112 --> 00:25:04,427
the box was empty.
664
00:25:04,547 --> 00:25:05,584
Empty?
665
00:25:05,704 --> 00:25:07,115
The ledger wasn't there.
666
00:25:07,770 --> 00:25:09,917
(Castle) So a guy
tortures and kills his partner
667
00:25:10,037 --> 00:25:11,532
after breaking into a bank
668
00:25:11,652 --> 00:25:13,399
to steal something
from his boss
669
00:25:14,012 --> 00:25:15,248
that wasn't actually there.
670
00:25:15,833 --> 00:25:17,324
Well, it sounds crazy
when you say it like that.
671
00:25:17,937 --> 00:25:19,072
Look, I know
he was my partner,
672
00:25:19,192 --> 00:25:20,759
but no matter how I slice it,
673
00:25:20,879 --> 00:25:22,833
it makes no sense
that Ike would kill Finch.
674
00:25:23,153 --> 00:25:25,314
Detective Beckett.
Lieutenant Holliwell.
675
00:25:25,690 --> 00:25:27,703
Sorry to interrupt,
but my team's been up on a wire
676
00:25:27,940 --> 00:25:29,752
monitoring the cell phones
of several key members
677
00:25:29,872 --> 00:25:30,920
of Racine's organization.
678
00:25:31,171 --> 00:25:33,389
We've been listening for
any mention of Ike Thornton.
679
00:25:33,509 --> 00:25:34,365
And?
680
00:25:34,485 --> 00:25:36,874
And it turns out, we're not
the only ones looking for him.
681
00:25:37,222 --> 00:25:39,465
Racine just put a price
on Thornton's head.
682
00:25:39,585 --> 00:25:40,678
(Beckett)
Racine must have found out
683
00:25:40,798 --> 00:25:41,879
he was going after
the ledger.
684
00:25:42,437 --> 00:25:44,248
I guess you're not the only one
your old partner betrayed.
685
00:25:46,339 --> 00:25:47,983
Carol.
Where you going?
686
00:25:48,857 --> 00:25:50,851
If Racine's going after Ike,
the first place he's gonna go
687
00:25:50,971 --> 00:25:52,566
is the same place we went,
his wife and kid.
688
00:25:52,942 --> 00:25:53,945
Ryan.
Yeah.
689
00:25:54,545 --> 00:25:55,762
I'm gonna call
the surveillance team.
690
00:25:55,882 --> 00:25:57,688
(Cell phone beeps)
691
00:25:58,719 --> 00:25:59,723
(Knocks on door)
692
00:25:59,843 --> 00:26:01,047
Carol!
693
00:26:01,167 --> 00:26:02,611
(Knocks)
694
00:26:02,731 --> 00:26:03,907
Carol, it's Javi!
695
00:26:04,027 --> 00:26:05,510
(Hinges squeak)
696
00:26:05,775 --> 00:26:06,972
Carol!
697
00:26:09,662 --> 00:26:10,805
Timmy!
698
00:26:16,775 --> 00:26:18,155
Upstairs. Go.
699
00:26:20,971 --> 00:26:22,139
Carol!
700
00:26:23,645 --> 00:26:25,233
Timmy!
701
00:26:29,061 --> 00:26:29,702
(Sighs)
702
00:26:29,822 --> 00:26:31,064
Nothing.
703
00:26:31,887 --> 00:26:33,127
They're gone.
704
00:26:33,503 --> 00:26:34,535
Surveillance team said
they never left.
705
00:26:34,655 --> 00:26:35,801
How the hell did they--
Racine.
706
00:26:39,286 --> 00:26:40,595
Have the uniforms
canvass the neighbors.
707
00:26:40,715 --> 00:26:42,281
Maybe somebody saw something.
Yeah, on it.
708
00:26:42,401 --> 00:26:44,558
(Footsteps retreat)
709
00:26:46,733 --> 00:26:48,085
(Door opens)
710
00:26:48,205 --> 00:26:49,831
(Door closes)
711
00:26:54,416 --> 00:26:55,740
(Picture frame clatters)
712
00:27:06,399 --> 00:27:09,117
(Gun action clicks)
713
00:27:11,479 --> 00:27:14,043
I appreciate what you done
for my boy, Javi.
714
00:27:17,700 --> 00:27:20,013
Carol and Tim...
Where are they?
715
00:27:20,585 --> 00:27:22,480
Somewhere where Racine
can't find 'em.
716
00:27:22,856 --> 00:27:24,430
We've had guys
on this place 24/7.
717
00:27:24,550 --> 00:27:25,698
How the hell
did you get in here?
718
00:27:25,818 --> 00:27:27,443
Three years as a ghost,
you learn a few things.
719
00:27:31,875 --> 00:27:33,208
So I.A. was right...
720
00:27:34,644 --> 00:27:35,615
Three years ago...
721
00:27:36,939 --> 00:27:37,775
Now.
722
00:27:39,487 --> 00:27:40,921
You were working for Racine.
723
00:27:41,041 --> 00:27:41,925
Is that what you believe?
724
00:27:42,045 --> 00:27:43,123
You let me think
you were dead.
725
00:27:44,417 --> 00:27:45,880
And now you're holding
a burner on me.
726
00:27:46,438 --> 00:27:47,218
(Sighs)
727
00:27:47,338 --> 00:27:49,413
(Exhales)
728
00:27:50,612 --> 00:27:52,549
You're a good cop, Javi.
729
00:27:53,936 --> 00:27:55,915
But I put this down,
you gon' take me in.
730
00:27:56,779 --> 00:27:58,257
And I can't let you do that,
not yet,
731
00:27:58,805 --> 00:28:00,435
not when I'm so close.
So close to what?
732
00:28:00,555 --> 00:28:02,596
There is a dirty cop
on Racine's payroll.
733
00:28:02,716 --> 00:28:05,998
So in order to throw them off of
his guy, Racine dirtied me up.
734
00:28:06,118 --> 00:28:08,379
And I.A. bought it
hook, line and sinker.
735
00:28:08,499 --> 00:28:09,759
Why didn't you just
come to me?
736
00:28:09,879 --> 00:28:11,650
Look, cases like mine
are contagious, brother.
737
00:28:12,402 --> 00:28:13,852
I couldn't let you catch
what I had.
738
00:28:15,036 --> 00:28:17,066
Racine's guy fed them
so much garbage,
739
00:28:17,186 --> 00:28:18,404
they could lock me up.
740
00:28:18,808 --> 00:28:19,904
And if I had let 'em,
741
00:28:20,462 --> 00:28:22,164
Racine woulda
had me shanked at Rikers
742
00:28:22,284 --> 00:28:24,297
before I could clear my name.
Where you been?
743
00:28:24,635 --> 00:28:27,232
Watching, learning. That's how
I found out about the ledger.
744
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,242
Racine's pays and owes.
Everyone on his payroll,
745
00:28:30,493 --> 00:28:32,403
including the dirty cop
that set me up.
746
00:28:32,523 --> 00:28:34,430
But the ledger wasn't
in the bank like you thought.
747
00:28:34,667 --> 00:28:36,228
Somehow, Racine found Finch.
748
00:28:36,348 --> 00:28:38,277
You were there, man.
We found your prints.
749
00:28:38,397 --> 00:28:39,727
He was dead
when I found him, Javi.
750
00:28:40,828 --> 00:28:42,564
I just closed his eyes.
Come on, man.
751
00:28:43,957 --> 00:28:45,003
And the ledger?
752
00:28:45,123 --> 00:28:46,704
I know where the ledger is.
753
00:28:47,422 --> 00:28:48,892
But I need
a little more time, Javi.
754
00:28:49,539 --> 00:28:51,029
Just until tomorrow night.
755
00:28:56,208 --> 00:29:01,743
(Keys jangle)
756
00:29:02,610 --> 00:29:04,464
You used to carry yours
with you all the time.
757
00:29:07,739 --> 00:29:08,961
(Sighs)
758
00:29:11,929 --> 00:29:13,169
I still do, man.
759
00:29:14,019 --> 00:29:16,114
Then that means there's
somebody else mixed up in this,
760
00:29:16,234 --> 00:29:17,577
somebody from the 54th.
761
00:29:17,697 --> 00:29:19,616
Whoever it is, they tipped
Racine that I'm still alive,
762
00:29:19,736 --> 00:29:20,912
which means they're close.
763
00:29:22,055 --> 00:29:23,721
Maybe a part
of your investigation.
764
00:29:24,187 --> 00:29:25,602
(Whispers) 54th.
765
00:29:27,323 --> 00:29:28,842
(Normal voice) Demming.
766
00:29:32,621 --> 00:29:33,834
It's him.
767
00:29:33,954 --> 00:29:35,032
Gotta be.
768
00:29:35,152 --> 00:29:37,071
Remember how he said
he requested this case?
769
00:29:37,363 --> 00:29:38,311
(Esposito)
Said he liked the weird ones,
770
00:29:38,431 --> 00:29:40,228
but it was just so he could hunt
down the thieves for Racine.
771
00:29:41,274 --> 00:29:43,295
I knew there was something
I didn't like about him.
772
00:29:44,090 --> 00:29:44,842
Too pretty.
773
00:29:45,867 --> 00:29:48,376
Bet he takes yoga classes
just so he can pick up girls.
774
00:29:48,488 --> 00:29:51,195
All these years, he's been lining his pockets
with Racine's cash,
775
00:29:51,292 --> 00:29:52,797
leaving Thornton
holding the bag.
776
00:29:52,917 --> 00:29:54,219
Probably subscribes
to "The New Yorker,"
777
00:29:54,339 --> 00:29:55,101
but doesn't even read it...
778
00:29:55,221 --> 00:29:56,592
The guy's been
playing us all along,
779
00:29:56,712 --> 00:29:58,216
using us to find
Finch's accomplice.
780
00:29:58,336 --> 00:29:59,499
Just leaves copies
laying out
781
00:29:59,619 --> 00:30:00,947
where people can see 'em.
782
00:30:01,547 --> 00:30:02,495
Let's nail the bastard.
783
00:30:03,244 --> 00:30:04,249
How?
784
00:30:04,369 --> 00:30:05,845
If he was tipping off Racine,
785
00:30:05,965 --> 00:30:07,225
he wouldn't use
the precinct phone.
786
00:30:07,345 --> 00:30:09,179
He'd use his cell.
We could pull his SIM card.
787
00:30:09,974 --> 00:30:10,970
If there are any calls
to Racine,
788
00:30:11,220 --> 00:30:12,099
we have all the proof we need.
789
00:30:12,447 --> 00:30:14,085
How are we gonna get
his phone away from him?
790
00:30:15,879 --> 00:30:16,909
What's up, man?
791
00:30:18,805 --> 00:30:20,004
I have an idea.
792
00:30:20,124 --> 00:30:21,934
(Both grunting)
793
00:30:22,477 --> 00:30:23,677
Ah! Ohh!
794
00:30:23,797 --> 00:30:25,921
Oh! (Chuckles)
795
00:30:26,041 --> 00:30:28,322
(Breathes heavily)
796
00:30:29,745 --> 00:30:30,846
(Laughs)
797
00:30:30,966 --> 00:30:33,104
Wow. It's been a while
for me.
798
00:30:33,224 --> 00:30:34,193
You know,
I'll try to be gentle.
799
00:30:34,313 --> 00:30:35,572
Oh, you do that.
800
00:30:35,692 --> 00:30:36,890
(Both grunting)
801
00:30:37,010 --> 00:30:39,175
Ah!
802
00:30:40,248 --> 00:30:41,930
Oh.
Too much for you?
803
00:30:42,050 --> 00:30:45,466
No, no. I'm just a little slow
to get started.
804
00:30:45,586 --> 00:30:46,335
(Grunts)
805
00:30:46,455 --> 00:30:47,451
Oh!
806
00:30:47,571 --> 00:30:49,349
Oh!
807
00:30:49,469 --> 00:30:50,850
But I think I'm starting
to find my rhythm now.
808
00:30:52,411 --> 00:30:54,016
(Water running)
809
00:31:00,135 --> 00:31:01,797
(Ryan, Castle
and Esposito cough)
810
00:31:01,917 --> 00:31:03,260
(Clears throat)
811
00:31:04,879 --> 00:31:06,093
(Esposito)
Let's go. Hurry up.
812
00:31:08,405 --> 00:31:09,550
Ow. What?
813
00:31:10,485 --> 00:31:12,844
Hey, man. What's up?
Showering?
814
00:31:16,017 --> 00:31:17,456
Got it.
Let's go.
815
00:31:17,576 --> 00:31:19,112
(Both grunting)
816
00:31:20,870 --> 00:31:21,898
Any news on Thornton?
817
00:31:22,018 --> 00:31:22,847
None.
818
00:31:23,279 --> 00:31:24,549
How's Esposito
taking all this?
819
00:31:24,669 --> 00:31:26,733
How do you think?
I mean, here's a guy
820
00:31:26,853 --> 00:31:28,254
who's been carrying
his 54th key fob
821
00:31:28,374 --> 00:31:30,246
in honor
of his partner's sacrifice.
822
00:31:30,366 --> 00:31:31,111
I had one of those.
823
00:31:31,231 --> 00:31:32,176
Oh, yeah?
Yeah.
824
00:31:32,296 --> 00:31:33,724
(Grunts)
Oh!
825
00:31:33,844 --> 00:31:35,964
Ah. Oh.
826
00:31:37,341 --> 00:31:39,728
But I lost mine
years ago.
827
00:31:40,216 --> 00:31:41,019
Come on.
828
00:31:41,451 --> 00:31:43,223
(Exhales deeply)
829
00:31:45,530 --> 00:31:46,567
All right.
830
00:31:46,687 --> 00:31:48,873
(Computer beeping and chirping)
831
00:32:03,031 --> 00:32:05,291
Bet this guy does a lot
of sexting, too.
832
00:32:05,411 --> 00:32:06,863
It's uploading now.
(Clicks keyboard key)
833
00:32:06,983 --> 00:32:08,571
(Beeps)
834
00:32:08,691 --> 00:32:11,293
(Breathing heavily)
Oh. I gotta tell ya,
835
00:32:11,413 --> 00:32:13,511
I don't know how much longer
I can keep this up.
836
00:32:13,631 --> 00:32:17,624
You know, I hear it helps
if you think about baseball.
837
00:32:17,744 --> 00:32:19,791
(Both grunting)
838
00:32:20,307 --> 00:32:22,654
So what do you do
for fun, Kate, huh,
839
00:32:22,774 --> 00:32:24,342
when you're not trying
to take someone's head off?
840
00:32:24,462 --> 00:32:26,422
(Grunting)
I'm actually
kind of a homebody. (Grunts)
841
00:32:26,542 --> 00:32:27,949
(Grunts) Oh!
842
00:32:28,069 --> 00:32:30,618
(Both breathing heavily)
843
00:32:31,135 --> 00:32:33,200
You know,
the night before I met you,
844
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,110
I went home
to read a book.
845
00:32:35,892 --> 00:32:37,775
No kidding? (Grunts)
846
00:32:37,895 --> 00:32:39,144
(Grunts)
Whoa!
847
00:32:39,264 --> 00:32:41,449
Ah! Ah. (Inhales sharply)
848
00:32:41,569 --> 00:32:42,999
(Kicks mat)
What about you?
849
00:32:43,119 --> 00:32:46,349
What about me what?
What do I do for fun?
850
00:32:47,010 --> 00:32:48,754
Or what was I doing
the night before we met?
851
00:32:48,874 --> 00:32:50,010
Oh!
852
00:32:50,130 --> 00:32:52,004
(Grunts)
Ah!
853
00:32:52,483 --> 00:32:53,368
Seriously...
854
00:32:54,107 --> 00:32:55,014
Why don't you just ask me
855
00:32:55,134 --> 00:32:56,692
if I have an alibi
for Finch's murder?
856
00:32:56,812 --> 00:32:59,525
(Laughs)
857
00:32:59,645 --> 00:33:01,187
(Both grunting
and shouting)
858
00:33:01,307 --> 00:33:03,392
Ah! Ha. (Inhales sharply)
859
00:33:04,912 --> 00:33:08,137
Okay.
So where were you? (Grunts)
860
00:33:08,430 --> 00:33:10,132
(Pants)
861
00:33:10,252 --> 00:33:12,522
(Beeps)
(Ryan) I ran all his numbers
through the reverse directory.
862
00:33:12,642 --> 00:33:14,136
They're all coming clean.
863
00:33:14,256 --> 00:33:16,142
That's because
it wasn't Demming.
864
00:33:22,385 --> 00:33:23,718
Your alibi checked out.
865
00:33:23,838 --> 00:33:25,602
Thank you.
He really was coaching
866
00:33:25,722 --> 00:33:28,350
an underprivileged youth
basketball league.
867
00:33:28,470 --> 00:33:31,219
Well, for what it's worth,
my kids won that night.
868
00:33:31,339 --> 00:33:32,837
Oh, jeez.
869
00:33:32,957 --> 00:33:34,383
(Ryan) Sorry, man.
Had to rule you out.
870
00:33:34,503 --> 00:33:37,521
Let's just move on. Look,
there's a wrong cop out there.
871
00:33:37,641 --> 00:33:38,690
We need to figure out
who it is.
872
00:33:38,810 --> 00:33:39,708
Do you know how many cops
873
00:33:39,828 --> 00:33:41,440
have been through the 54th
in the last 10 years?
874
00:33:41,794 --> 00:33:42,933
Hundreds, maybe thousands.
875
00:33:43,444 --> 00:33:44,636
(Beckett) Well,
whoever it was was very good.
876
00:33:44,993 --> 00:33:47,705
You don't work the other side
without arousing I.A. suspicion
877
00:33:47,825 --> 00:33:48,829
unless you know
what you're doing.
878
00:33:48,949 --> 00:33:50,930
Yeah, we're never gonna
find him, not in time anyway.
879
00:33:51,326 --> 00:33:52,374
In time for what?
880
00:33:52,494 --> 00:33:53,996
I gotta take a walk.
881
00:33:59,564 --> 00:34:01,327
Hey, I thought
you were going for a walk.
882
00:34:03,643 --> 00:34:04,718
What do you want?
883
00:34:05,706 --> 00:34:07,457
Thornton's going after
the ledger tonight, isn't he?
884
00:34:08,111 --> 00:34:09,818
The man's been on the run
for three years,
885
00:34:09,938 --> 00:34:10,781
separated from his family.
886
00:34:10,901 --> 00:34:13,261
I gotta help the guy,
so don't try to stop me.
I'm not.
887
00:34:14,132 --> 00:34:15,731
I'm going with you.
No, you're not.
888
00:34:15,816 --> 00:34:16,978
I'm your partner.
889
00:34:17,359 --> 00:34:19,022
That means I'm with you
till the wheels fall off.
890
00:34:20,003 --> 00:34:20,902
I know, bro.
891
00:34:22,837 --> 00:34:24,581
But... I'm gonna need you
to get my back
892
00:34:24,701 --> 00:34:25,808
if things go wrong,
all right?
893
00:34:25,928 --> 00:34:27,443
Okay.
894
00:34:28,588 --> 00:34:29,814
Thanks.
895
00:34:30,764 --> 00:34:32,025
(Car door opens)
896
00:34:33,002 --> 00:34:35,053
(Engine turns over)
897
00:34:41,444 --> 00:34:42,769
Tell me
you got something, people.
898
00:34:43,690 --> 00:34:45,644
Unfortunately, sir,
we are dead in the water.
899
00:34:46,690 --> 00:34:48,496
No... we're not.
900
00:34:49,231 --> 00:34:50,779
If Thornton never worked
for Racine,
901
00:34:50,899 --> 00:34:52,629
then someone lied to I.A.
three years ago.
902
00:34:52,749 --> 00:34:54,652
To throw suspicion
from the real dirty cop.
903
00:34:54,772 --> 00:34:56,480
So whoever
I.A. was talking to,
904
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,063
they must know
who the real dirty cop is.
905
00:34:58,356 --> 00:35:00,494
All we need to do is get
the name of the informant
906
00:35:00,614 --> 00:35:01,778
from Holliwell
and run him down.
907
00:35:02,210 --> 00:35:03,480
(Scoffs)
Easier said than done.
908
00:35:03,773 --> 00:35:05,803
There's no way an I.A. officer
is gonna give up the name
909
00:35:05,923 --> 00:35:07,857
of a confidential informant.
We'll see about that.
910
00:35:13,881 --> 00:35:15,011
(Gun action clicks)
911
00:35:15,131 --> 00:35:16,351
(Door closes)
912
00:35:16,895 --> 00:35:18,695
You sure you're ready
to bet your badge on this?
913
00:35:18,815 --> 00:35:20,840
Pretty long odds.
You're my partner.
914
00:35:21,259 --> 00:35:22,877
You sure you can get us
in Racine's office?
915
00:35:22,997 --> 00:35:23,924
Trust me.
916
00:35:24,044 --> 00:35:25,357
I've been casing
the joint for three years.
917
00:35:26,041 --> 00:35:27,157
Let's roll.
918
00:35:29,822 --> 00:35:31,558
(Whirring)
(Beckett) Sir, how did you do it?
919
00:35:31,678 --> 00:35:33,451
Pulling strings
and trading favors.
920
00:35:36,032 --> 00:35:37,121
This can't be right.
921
00:35:37,241 --> 00:35:39,593
The investigation against
Ike Thornton three years ago,
922
00:35:39,713 --> 00:35:41,862
lieutenant Holliwell lists
his chief informant
923
00:35:42,736 --> 00:35:44,215
as Detective Javier Esposito.
924
00:35:44,335 --> 00:35:46,419
(Montgomery) Son of a bitch.
What does that mean?
925
00:35:46,539 --> 00:35:47,656
It means
there was no informant.
926
00:35:48,158 --> 00:35:49,358
Sir, is there
any way to find out
927
00:35:49,478 --> 00:35:50,932
if Holliwell served
at the 54th?
928
00:35:56,529 --> 00:35:58,023
(Torch hissing)
929
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:02,958
Come on, bro. What the hell's
taking so long?
930
00:36:03,078 --> 00:36:04,458
I coulda chewed
through that by now.
931
00:36:04,578 --> 00:36:08,544
(Hissing continues)
932
00:36:08,664 --> 00:36:10,795
(Hissing stops)
933
00:36:19,151 --> 00:36:20,532
(Thornton) There we go.
934
00:36:25,528 --> 00:36:27,295
Nice thing
about Internal Affairs...
935
00:36:28,229 --> 00:36:30,480
It's our job
to monitor other cops.
936
00:36:30,801 --> 00:36:32,913
You should've turned your cell
phone off completely, Esposito,
937
00:36:33,033 --> 00:36:34,239
you know, with GPS and all.
938
00:36:34,629 --> 00:36:35,941
All this time, it was you.
939
00:36:36,234 --> 00:36:37,922
I figured you'd come
for that sooner or later.
940
00:36:39,509 --> 00:36:40,835
Big mistake.
941
00:36:47,764 --> 00:36:49,104
Toss the ledger
over here.
942
00:36:49,815 --> 00:36:51,378
Throw it!
943
00:36:52,076 --> 00:36:52,949
(Thuds)
944
00:36:54,624 --> 00:36:55,754
See,
if I were you Thornton...
945
00:36:56,019 --> 00:36:57,319
(Laughs)
946
00:36:57,947 --> 00:36:59,300
I woulda just stayed dead.
947
00:36:59,746 --> 00:37:01,560
Well, you're not me.
I'm a cop.
948
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:03,680
Oh, I beg to differ, buddy.
You're a wanted criminal.
949
00:37:05,326 --> 00:37:06,722
Just ask Esposito
over here.
950
00:37:07,168 --> 00:37:08,408
He died
trying to apprehend you.
951
00:37:09,092 --> 00:37:10,110
My only regret is that I...
952
00:37:10,947 --> 00:37:12,095
I showed up too late
to save him.
953
00:37:12,513 --> 00:37:13,323
You son of a bitch.
954
00:37:13,443 --> 00:37:15,599
Look, there's something I want
to say before we're done here.
955
00:37:16,450 --> 00:37:18,096
Thanks for backing me up.
956
00:37:19,603 --> 00:37:20,853
Lot of good
that did us.
957
00:37:20,973 --> 00:37:22,642
I am going to get
the medal of valor
958
00:37:22,762 --> 00:37:24,628
for killing you, Thornton.
No, I'm serious, man.
959
00:37:24,748 --> 00:37:26,930
Thanks for having my back.
960
00:37:30,220 --> 00:37:31,368
(Elevator bell dings)
961
00:37:31,689 --> 00:37:32,722
(gunshot)
962
00:37:34,438 --> 00:37:36,482
(Breathing heavily)
963
00:37:40,711 --> 00:37:43,278
(Breathes heavily and groans)
964
00:37:43,398 --> 00:37:46,376
(Panting)
965
00:37:46,496 --> 00:37:48,562
Thank God you're here.
They tried to kill me.
966
00:37:48,682 --> 00:37:50,055
Esposito and Thornton,
they're both in on it.
967
00:37:50,175 --> 00:37:52,464
Drop it
or I will drop you.
968
00:37:57,153 --> 00:38:01,158
Mm.
(Ledger thuds)
969
00:38:02,566 --> 00:38:04,073
(Ryan) You know the drill,
Holliwell. Keep 'em up.
970
00:38:04,193 --> 00:38:05,736
(Groans)
971
00:38:08,219 --> 00:38:09,614
(Keys jangle)
972
00:38:09,734 --> 00:38:11,191
(Pants)
973
00:38:11,847 --> 00:38:12,712
Lieutenant Holliwell,
974
00:38:12,832 --> 00:38:15,195
you're under arrest
for the murder of Paul Finch.
975
00:38:16,130 --> 00:38:17,288
Where's Esposito?
976
00:38:18,259 --> 00:38:19,731
(Groans)
Where's Esposito?!
977
00:38:20,261 --> 00:38:21,419
Esposito?!
978
00:38:21,539 --> 00:38:23,556
Yeah.
We got an officer down.
979
00:38:24,533 --> 00:38:26,361
William 16, William 16,
need an ambulance
980
00:38:26,481 --> 00:38:27,643
at 3471 Houston.
981
00:38:28,062 --> 00:38:29,702
I'm cool.
It was a clean exit.
982
00:38:29,822 --> 00:38:31,125
(Man) 10-4. Help's on the way.
Holliwell?
983
00:38:31,572 --> 00:38:33,825
Yeah, we got him and the ledger.
Good.
984
00:38:34,663 --> 00:38:35,944
Ike.
Yeah.
985
00:38:36,064 --> 00:38:38,386
This my partner--Ryan.
Hey.
986
00:38:38,506 --> 00:38:40,585
And this is
my other partner...
987
00:38:41,729 --> 00:38:43,129
Castle.
988
00:38:43,249 --> 00:38:44,343
Hey, man.
989
00:38:44,463 --> 00:38:45,753
Hey.
990
00:38:50,345 --> 00:38:52,466
And with Holliwell's testimony
and the ledger,
991
00:38:52,586 --> 00:38:55,049
we now have enough evidence
to arrest Racine.
992
00:38:56,179 --> 00:38:57,407
Okay, but what
I don't understand
993
00:38:57,527 --> 00:38:59,910
is how the hell you ended up in
Racine's office with Thornton.
994
00:39:00,030 --> 00:39:01,032
Sir, I--
995
00:39:01,152 --> 00:39:03,606
oh, I-I'm sorry, sir.
I thought we made that clear.
996
00:39:04,507 --> 00:39:06,097
Esposito was with us
997
00:39:06,217 --> 00:39:08,511
when we responded to
a robbery in progress call
998
00:39:08,631 --> 00:39:09,581
at Racine's office.
999
00:39:09,701 --> 00:39:11,353
Uh-huh.
And who made the call?
1000
00:39:12,023 --> 00:39:13,937
Uh, the call was made
by a private citizen
1001
00:39:14,188 --> 00:39:15,919
who wishes to remain anonymous.
1002
00:39:16,039 --> 00:39:17,761
Well, I may need
a private citizen
1003
00:39:17,881 --> 00:39:19,510
to help me write up
this damn mess.
1004
00:39:19,630 --> 00:39:21,226
I'd be happy to lend
my expertise.
1005
00:39:22,733 --> 00:39:23,935
So...
1006
00:39:24,055 --> 00:39:31,879
(Pearl Jam's "Unknown Thought"
playing)
1007
00:39:32,144 --> 00:39:34,153
? All the thoughts ?
1008
00:39:34,273 --> 00:39:36,204
? you never see ?
1009
00:39:36,324 --> 00:39:39,135
? you're always thinking ?
1010
00:39:39,885 --> 00:39:41,742
? brain is wired ?
1011
00:39:41,862 --> 00:39:44,072
there you go.
1012
00:39:44,192 --> 00:39:46,785
? Oh, are you sinking? ?
1013
00:39:47,874 --> 00:39:49,791
? breathing hard ?
1014
00:39:49,911 --> 00:39:51,152
I know you're not
turning me loose.
1015
00:39:51,690 --> 00:39:52,848
Just a furlough..
1016
00:39:53,114 --> 00:39:54,453
We got something
we want you to see
1017
00:39:54,573 --> 00:39:57,355
(Elevator bell dings)
? look for love ?
1018
00:39:57,475 --> 00:39:59,785
? and evidence ?
1019
00:39:59,905 --> 00:40:02,462
? that you're worth keeping ?
1020
00:40:02,582 --> 00:40:03,913
(officers cheering)
1021
00:40:04,033 --> 00:40:06,604
? Swallowed whole
in negatives ?
1022
00:40:06,724 --> 00:40:08,209
you did it, bro.
1023
00:40:08,329 --> 00:40:11,382
? It's so sad and sickening ?
1024
00:40:11,502 --> 00:40:13,624
? feel the air ?
1025
00:40:13,744 --> 00:40:15,773
? up above ?
1026
00:40:15,893 --> 00:40:19,407
? a pool of blue sky ?
1027
00:40:19,527 --> 00:40:21,273
? feel the air ?
1028
00:40:21,393 --> 00:40:22,668
and the best news is...
1029
00:40:23,748 --> 00:40:25,311
You're free to go.
1030
00:40:25,431 --> 00:40:28,130
As far as I'm concerned,
Finch acted alone.
1031
00:40:28,250 --> 00:40:30,282
It's my case.
I'm closing it.
1032
00:40:30,402 --> 00:40:32,989
(Castle) And I don't see Racine
pressing charges anytime soon.
1033
00:40:33,394 --> 00:40:35,548
Right now, he's trying to deny
that the ledger is his.
1034
00:40:37,274 --> 00:40:38,990
It's time for you
to go home, Ike.
1035
00:40:39,110 --> 00:40:42,565
? For you to walk on ?
1036
00:40:42,685 --> 00:40:45,369
hey. Oh, my God.
1037
00:40:45,489 --> 00:40:47,376
?
1038
00:40:47,496 --> 00:40:53,845
? for you to walk on ?
1039
00:40:54,689 --> 00:40:56,474
so is it always
this much fun up here?
1040
00:40:57,311 --> 00:40:58,850
We have our moments.
1041
00:40:59,715 --> 00:41:01,627
So now that you know
I'm not a dirty cop,
1042
00:41:02,952 --> 00:41:04,809
anytime you need
a sparring partner...
1043
00:41:05,368 --> 00:41:06,679
Thanks.
1044
00:41:06,799 --> 00:41:07,939
(Laughs)
1045
00:41:09,033 --> 00:41:10,373
And I'll let you win.
1046
00:41:10,493 --> 00:41:12,243
I'm sorry. What?
1047
00:41:12,363 --> 00:41:13,890
(Beckett and Demming
