1
00:00:02,196 --> 00:00:03,518
Previously on "Castle"...

2
00:00:03,519 --> 00:00:05,752
Whoever owns that account

3
00:00:05,753 --> 00:00:07,948
is the person that killed my mom.

4
00:00:07,949 --> 00:00:10,133
It belonged to a guy named
William H. Bracken.

5
00:00:10,170 --> 00:00:12,413
You mean Senator William Bracken?

6
00:00:13,335 --> 00:00:15,593
He's protected. Untouchable.

7
00:00:15,606 --> 00:00:17,158
You're just gonna end up dead.

8
00:00:17,175 --> 00:00:18,437
What do you want, Ms. Beckett?

9
00:00:18,438 --> 00:00:21,483
Everyone that you've ever had killed,

10
00:00:21,484 --> 00:00:23,134
I want the truth.

11
00:00:23,135 --> 00:00:25,239
See, here's what you don't understand.

12
00:00:25,281 --> 00:00:26,744
It's not who has the gun.

13
00:00:27,412 --> 00:00:29,440
It's who has the power.

14
00:00:30,742 --> 00:00:32,785
Do you really think that's you?

15
00:00:35,514 --> 00:00:37,555
That's gonna leave a nasty scar.

16
00:00:37,861 --> 00:00:41,022
Every time you see it, think of me.

17
00:01:05,928 --> 00:01:07,045
So what makes you so sure

18
00:01:07,046 --> 00:01:09,412
that Alexis isn't serious about this guy?

19
00:01:09,413 --> 00:01:11,160
Well, I haven't met him
or approved of him yet

20
00:01:11,161 --> 00:01:12,135
so it can't be serious.

21
00:01:12,136 --> 00:01:13,402
All suitors must be

22
00:01:13,403 --> 00:01:16,082
met and intimidated by me personally

23
00:01:16,210 --> 00:01:19,539
before they can be considered
for official boyfriend status.

24
00:01:19,724 --> 00:01:21,926
I would not do that.

25
00:01:23,002 --> 00:01:24,999
Her body was in that barrel over there,

26
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,461
burned, and I mean beyond recognition.

27
00:01:27,548 --> 00:01:29,057
Any chance of a positive I.D.?

28
00:01:29,058 --> 00:01:30,269
Not from fingerprints.

29
00:01:30,270 --> 00:01:32,775
But bone structure tells
me it's a young woman,

30
00:01:32,776 --> 00:01:33,749
about 5'4".

31
00:01:33,750 --> 00:01:35,242
So a transient?

32
00:01:35,243 --> 00:01:37,834
I doubt it. There's a bullet
hole in the back of her head

33
00:01:37,835 --> 00:01:39,425
and then there's her teeth.

34
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,922
Every one of them was
knocked out of her mouth.

35
00:01:41,929 --> 00:01:43,375
So much for dental records.

36
00:01:43,593 --> 00:01:45,475
Well, someone obviously
went to great lengths

37
00:01:45,476 --> 00:01:46,892
to make sure she disappeared.

38
00:01:46,893 --> 00:01:49,305
So... none of these guys saw anything.

39
00:01:49,306 --> 00:01:50,623
They panhandle by day.

40
00:01:50,665 --> 00:01:52,357
Don't come back here till it's dark.

41
00:01:52,390 --> 00:01:53,523
The first guy who showed up said

42
00:01:53,524 --> 00:01:54,756
the fire was already going.

43
00:01:54,757 --> 00:01:56,122
Sounds like a dump job.

44
00:01:56,173 --> 00:01:57,307
All right. We have a female.

45
00:01:57,308 --> 00:02:00,463
She's 5'4". Let's start looking
through missing persons reports.

46
00:02:00,464 --> 00:02:01,491
Wait.

47
00:02:01,492 --> 00:02:03,376
You may not have to do that.

48
00:02:05,250 --> 00:02:07,697
A titanium screw from her jaw.

49
00:02:07,782 --> 00:02:08,932
Dental implant.

50
00:02:08,933 --> 00:02:10,361
And there's a batch number,

51
00:02:10,362 --> 00:02:12,390
which could give us her name.

52
00:02:13,441 --> 00:02:16,316
We traced that dental screw
to Melanie Rogers, 27.

53
00:02:16,317 --> 00:02:18,688
Lived in New Jersey near
Rutgers University,

54
00:02:18,689 --> 00:02:20,622
where she was a postdoc engineer

55
00:02:20,623 --> 00:02:22,127
in eco-friendly design.

56
00:02:22,128 --> 00:02:24,456
By all accounts, she was
well-liked, respected.

57
00:02:24,457 --> 00:02:26,699
No one I spoke to had any idea
who could've done this to her.

58
00:02:26,700 --> 00:02:28,062
What's an engineer from New Jersey

59
00:02:28,063 --> 00:02:30,264
doing in a barrel in lower Manhattan?

60
00:02:30,265 --> 00:02:32,265
I don't know, but something
was going on with her.

61
00:02:32,355 --> 00:02:34,302
I pulled her phone records for yesterday.

62
00:02:34,303 --> 00:02:36,539
She made a half a dozen
calls to the same number

63
00:02:36,540 --> 00:02:37,662
in a 20-minute period.

64
00:02:37,663 --> 00:02:39,034
Boyfriend?
Could be.

65
00:02:39,035 --> 00:02:41,093
It's a 2-0-2 number, but
it's listed as blocked.

66
00:02:41,094 --> 00:02:43,010
2-0-2. Uh, that's Washington, D.C.

67
00:02:43,011 --> 00:02:45,408
Yeah. Preliminary check
shows it's a cell phone.

68
00:02:45,409 --> 00:02:47,205
Which means whoever it
is might be in the city.

69
00:02:47,206 --> 00:02:48,713
Let's get a warrant on that phone number.

70
00:02:48,714 --> 00:02:51,321
She made one other call after
that, around 4:00 P.M.

71
00:02:51,322 --> 00:02:53,452
And then after that, all her
phone activity went dark.

72
00:02:53,453 --> 00:02:54,505
Who was the call to?

73
00:02:54,506 --> 00:02:56,035
It was to her half sister Julie.

74
00:02:56,036 --> 00:02:57,608
I took a look. She's her only family.

75
00:02:57,609 --> 00:02:59,305
She works as a loan officer in midtown.

76
00:02:59,306 --> 00:03:01,496
Bring her in. She might be
able to shed some light.

77
00:03:03,790 --> 00:03:06,319
Melanie and I were never all that close.

78
00:03:06,694 --> 00:03:09,685
But when our dad got sick, we, um...

79
00:03:10,722 --> 00:03:12,084
We found each other.

80
00:03:12,332 --> 00:03:13,033
Do you have any idea

81
00:03:13,034 --> 00:03:15,505
what your sister was doing
in the city yesterday?

82
00:03:15,674 --> 00:03:18,018
No. She came in from time to time.

83
00:03:18,019 --> 00:03:20,094
Do you know if she was
dating anyone recently?

84
00:03:21,187 --> 00:03:22,985
Someone from D.C. perhaps?

85
00:03:23,016 --> 00:03:24,632
Not that I knew about.

86
00:03:25,589 --> 00:03:26,660
Although...

87
00:03:26,968 --> 00:03:29,035
just two nights ago, she met me for dinner.

88
00:03:29,500 --> 00:03:31,607
She mentioned meeting a friend afterwards.

89
00:03:31,608 --> 00:03:32,600
Did she say who?

90
00:03:32,601 --> 00:03:33,399
Well, I asked,

91
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,652
but she said she couldn't talk
about it for some reason.

92
00:03:36,026 --> 00:03:37,986
So when you spoke with her yesterday,

93
00:03:37,987 --> 00:03:39,850
did it sound like anything was wrong?

94
00:03:40,549 --> 00:03:42,214
I never spoke to her yesterday.

95
00:03:42,215 --> 00:03:45,447
Her phone records indicate
she called you about 4:00.

96
00:03:45,971 --> 00:03:47,112
00?

97
00:03:47,176 --> 00:03:48,833
N-no. I was in a meeting.

98
00:03:53,064 --> 00:03:54,301
Oh, my God.

99
00:03:54,810 --> 00:03:56,389
She left a message.

100
00:03:58,778 --> 00:04:01,406
It's me. Listen, I think
something's going on.

101
00:04:01,407 --> 00:04:02,315
Something's not right.

102
00:04:02,316 --> 00:04:03,975
I'm pretty sure someone's after me.

103
00:04:03,976 --> 00:04:05,577
She's in a parking structure.

104
00:04:05,578 --> 00:04:07,211
You can hear two sets of footsteps.
Mm-hmm.

105
00:04:07,212 --> 00:04:10,381
If anything happens, tell them X-T-3--

106
00:04:14,758 --> 00:04:15,847
That's it.

107
00:04:15,937 --> 00:04:17,925
She recorded her own murder.

108
00:04:18,569 --> 00:04:20,532
Okay, parking structure,
letters and numbers.

109
00:04:20,533 --> 00:04:22,120
Sounds like she's reading
off a license plate.

110
00:04:22,121 --> 00:04:23,856
Of the guy that was following her.

111
00:04:23,857 --> 00:04:26,959
And X-T-3, I mean, there's
gonna be thousands of plates

112
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,432
with that partial.

113
00:04:29,425 --> 00:04:30,547
Can you play the end again?

114
00:04:30,548 --> 00:04:32,908
I thought I heard something
after the phone hit the ground.

115
00:04:39,949 --> 00:04:41,860
There. Did you hear that?

116
00:04:41,861 --> 00:04:43,144
There's a click.

117
00:04:43,434 --> 00:04:44,930
Let me see what I can do with that.

118
00:05:13,339 --> 00:05:15,066
At the Standish Hotel at 11:00 P.M.

119
00:05:15,067 --> 00:05:16,830
Perhaps she was meeting
her Washington friend

120
00:05:16,831 --> 00:05:17,697
for a secret tryst?

121
00:05:17,698 --> 00:05:18,675
It makes sense.

122
00:05:18,676 --> 00:05:19,749
The Standish is popular

123
00:05:19,750 --> 00:05:21,902
with married men who value discretion.

124
00:05:22,057 --> 00:05:24,114
Maybe someone at the
hotel saw her with him.

125
00:05:27,403 --> 00:05:28,344
I'm really not sure.

126
00:05:28,345 --> 00:05:31,104
Uh, so many people come
through here everyday.

127
00:05:32,041 --> 00:05:33,152
Look again.

128
00:05:33,153 --> 00:05:36,291
And keep in mind, this is
a murder investigation.

129
00:05:37,577 --> 00:05:39,258
I might have seen her a few times.

130
00:05:39,391 --> 00:05:41,101
What about two nights ago?

131
00:05:41,731 --> 00:05:43,320
Yes. Probably.

132
00:05:43,572 --> 00:05:45,055
Was she meeting someone?

133
00:05:47,512 --> 00:05:48,979
I'm gonna need a name.

134
00:05:48,996 --> 00:05:51,188
Look, our clients value their privacy.

135
00:05:51,189 --> 00:05:53,701
You're really putting me in
an awkward position here.

136
00:05:53,702 --> 00:05:55,301
Oh, you think this is awkward?

137
00:05:55,418 --> 00:05:57,091
Wait till I get a warrant
and start questioning

138
00:05:57,092 --> 00:05:59,511
all the people that have stayed
here over the past year.

139
00:05:59,512 --> 00:06:00,518
Fine.

140
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:04,845
You didn't hear it from me.

141
00:06:09,705 --> 00:06:10,895
It can't be.

142
00:06:12,258 --> 00:06:15,667
Melanie was having an affair
with Senator Bracken.

143
00:06:28,223 --> 00:06:29,827
That's it. Esposito's confirmed it.

144
00:06:29,828 --> 00:06:31,216
The number that Melanie was calling

145
00:06:31,217 --> 00:06:33,567
was Senator Bracken's cell phone.

146
00:06:33,725 --> 00:06:35,925
Late-night phone calls,
secret hotel meetings--

147
00:06:35,926 --> 00:06:37,490
Bracken was having an affair with Melanie.

148
00:06:37,491 --> 00:06:39,060
She must have become a liability.

149
00:06:39,061 --> 00:06:41,678
Or she stumbled on to something
that he was involved in

150
00:06:41,679 --> 00:06:42,887
and became a threat.

151
00:06:42,888 --> 00:06:43,861
So he dealt with her

152
00:06:43,862 --> 00:06:44,959
the same way he dealt with your mother

153
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:46,254
and tried to deal with you.

154
00:06:47,186 --> 00:06:48,625
This is it, Castle.

155
00:06:49,391 --> 00:06:52,028
This is my chance to finally make him pay.

156
00:06:52,029 --> 00:06:53,899
Yeah, but we have to be cautious.

157
00:06:53,904 --> 00:06:55,674
We know what happens to
people who go after him.

158
00:06:55,675 --> 00:06:57,870
Except this time, he doesn't
know we're on to him.

159
00:06:57,871 --> 00:06:59,450
We've got the advantage here.

160
00:07:00,122 --> 00:07:01,181
Do we?

161
00:07:01,301 --> 00:07:03,542
What do you think he's gonna
do when he sees you coming?

162
00:07:10,777 --> 00:07:12,365
How many people you think this
bastard put in the ground

163
00:07:12,366 --> 00:07:13,283
to get here?

164
00:07:13,284 --> 00:07:14,379
Hey, remember, we're only here

165
00:07:14,380 --> 00:07:16,041
to see if he can help us locate Melanie.

166
00:07:16,042 --> 00:07:17,090
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

167
00:07:17,108 --> 00:07:18,400
Let him think he got away with it,

168
00:07:18,401 --> 00:07:20,025
just like he does everything else.

169
00:07:20,650 --> 00:07:23,482
You know, I was really hoping
the next time I saw this guy

170
00:07:23,483 --> 00:07:25,089
it would be down the barrel of my gun.

171
00:07:28,986 --> 00:07:30,634
You're sure I can't change your mind?

172
00:07:30,871 --> 00:07:33,152
I could really use your
help on this one, bill.

173
00:07:33,153 --> 00:07:35,283
I would if I could. You know that.

174
00:07:35,451 --> 00:07:38,080
You also know how important
this legislation is to me.

175
00:07:38,086 --> 00:07:39,198
Senator.

176
00:07:39,310 --> 00:07:40,774
Some detectives are here to see you.

177
00:07:40,775 --> 00:07:42,254
Sorry to trouble you, senator.

178
00:07:42,458 --> 00:07:43,855
This won't take long.

179
00:07:44,010 --> 00:07:45,645
What's this about, bill?

180
00:07:45,662 --> 00:07:46,873
I'm not sure.

181
00:07:48,291 --> 00:07:49,572
You look familiar.

182
00:07:50,735 --> 00:07:51,977
Have we met?

183
00:07:52,470 --> 00:07:53,776
I don't think so, sir.

184
00:07:54,247 --> 00:07:55,728
Is there someplace we can talk?

185
00:07:56,657 --> 00:07:57,755
I'd offer you both a drink,

186
00:07:57,756 --> 00:07:59,848
but I get the feeling
this is an official call.

187
00:08:00,285 --> 00:08:02,094
Well, we'd just like to
ask you a few questions

188
00:08:02,095 --> 00:08:03,208
about someone.

189
00:08:03,974 --> 00:08:05,218
Melanie Rogers.

190
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:07,254
Yeah, sure. I know Melanie.

191
00:08:07,255 --> 00:08:08,953
She's a great girl. Is there a problem?

192
00:08:08,954 --> 00:08:10,844
She's--she's missing.

193
00:08:10,845 --> 00:08:12,023
Since yesterday.

194
00:08:12,046 --> 00:08:13,244
She's missing?

195
00:08:13,857 --> 00:08:15,916
That's terrible. Whatever I can do to help.

196
00:08:15,919 --> 00:08:17,741
When was the last time you saw Ms. Rogers?

197
00:08:17,742 --> 00:08:18,996
Just yesterday. We were both attending

198
00:08:18,997 --> 00:08:20,803
the same eco conference in the city.

199
00:08:20,825 --> 00:08:23,515
Oh, so you ran into her there?

200
00:08:23,546 --> 00:08:25,840
No. I'm, uh, giving the keynote address,

201
00:08:25,841 --> 00:08:27,911
and she was helping me with my speech.

202
00:08:27,912 --> 00:08:29,252
Oh, so she works for you.

203
00:08:29,253 --> 00:08:31,039
Not exactly. She agreed to consult with me

204
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:32,581
on a very important piece of legislation

205
00:08:32,582 --> 00:08:34,002
that I'm unveiling.

206
00:08:34,149 --> 00:08:36,579
So she's a non-paid consultant?

207
00:08:38,954 --> 00:08:40,549
I suppose.

208
00:08:41,699 --> 00:08:42,937
Why?

209
00:08:43,204 --> 00:08:45,198
It's just that you were seen
at the Standish Hotel together

210
00:08:45,199 --> 00:08:46,494
two nights ago.

211
00:08:46,933 --> 00:08:48,168
What are you implying?

212
00:08:48,169 --> 00:08:49,617
We're just trying to establish a timeline

213
00:08:49,618 --> 00:08:50,608
of Melanie's whereabouts.

214
00:08:50,609 --> 00:08:51,306
The hell you are.

215
00:08:51,307 --> 00:08:52,895
You're trying to take a
professional relationship

216
00:08:52,896 --> 00:08:53,903
and use it against me.

217
00:08:53,904 --> 00:08:55,841
Look, man. We're not trying to jam you up--

218
00:08:55,842 --> 00:08:57,206
I know where I've seen you.

219
00:08:59,305 --> 00:09:01,189
You work with detective Beckett.

220
00:09:05,238 --> 00:09:06,841
We just have a few more questions.

221
00:09:07,341 --> 00:09:08,843
Then call my lawyer.

222
00:09:11,739 --> 00:09:12,813
The guy's guilty as hell,

223
00:09:12,814 --> 00:09:14,809
but he has an alibi.

224
00:09:14,908 --> 00:09:16,724
He was at some conference all day.

225
00:09:16,780 --> 00:09:18,119
Ryan's checking it out now.

226
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:19,310
It's gonna check out.

227
00:09:19,311 --> 00:09:20,623
He never does this on his own.

228
00:09:20,624 --> 00:09:22,044
He always sends someone else.

229
00:09:22,045 --> 00:09:23,552
Okay, okay, so...

230
00:09:24,083 --> 00:09:25,689
now not only do we have
to find this killer,

231
00:09:25,690 --> 00:09:27,167
but we have to connect him to Bracken.

232
00:09:27,168 --> 00:09:28,804
Except we have no idea
where to start looking.

233
00:09:28,805 --> 00:09:30,015
We don't even have a real crime scene.

234
00:09:30,016 --> 00:09:31,570
No, but we're getting closer.

235
00:09:32,181 --> 00:09:35,371
The FBI performed an analysis
of Melanie's voice mail.

236
00:09:35,372 --> 00:09:37,334
It was a call made from a parking garage

237
00:09:37,335 --> 00:09:38,500
where she was abducted.

238
00:09:38,501 --> 00:09:39,962
They identified the background noise

239
00:09:39,963 --> 00:09:44,363
as the hydraulic motor
of a tc5015 tower crane.

240
00:09:44,364 --> 00:09:46,008
Tower cranes are used
in heavy construction.

241
00:09:46,009 --> 00:09:47,846
Which means the garage is
near a construction site.

242
00:09:47,847 --> 00:09:49,197
And only 12 sites in the city...

243
00:09:49,198 --> 00:09:50,831
are currently using that crane.

244
00:09:51,087 --> 00:09:54,201
Hey. So Bracken's alibi checked out.

245
00:09:54,299 --> 00:09:56,331
Witnesses put him at the
Goldman ecological conference

246
00:09:56,332 --> 00:09:57,617
all afternoon yesterday.

247
00:09:57,618 --> 00:09:59,388
They also confirmed that Melanie was there,

248
00:09:59,389 --> 00:10:00,386
just like he said.

249
00:10:00,387 --> 00:10:01,897
She was seen leaving at 3:45.

250
00:10:01,898 --> 00:10:04,295
Melanie left the voice mail
from the parking garage

251
00:10:04,518 --> 00:10:05,769
at 4:00.

252
00:10:06,173 --> 00:10:07,575
Where was that conference being held?

253
00:10:07,576 --> 00:10:08,951
At the Widmark Hotel downtown.

254
00:10:08,952 --> 00:10:12,948
The Widmark-- that's five blocks
from that construction site.

255
00:10:16,608 --> 00:10:18,690
Which is right next to a parking garage.

256
00:10:34,208 --> 00:10:35,434
Hey, Beckett.

257
00:10:35,550 --> 00:10:36,951
You need to see this.

258
00:10:38,076 --> 00:10:38,951
X-t-3.

259
00:10:38,952 --> 00:10:40,611
Just like in Melanie's voice mail.

260
00:10:40,612 --> 00:10:41,818
Did you run the plates?

261
00:10:41,912 --> 00:10:45,038
Yeah. Just came back stolen.
Reported four days ago.

262
00:10:45,039 --> 00:10:46,139
All right. You guys check inside.

263
00:10:46,140 --> 00:10:47,351
Espo, pop that trunk.

264
00:11:06,812 --> 00:11:07,422
I may be wrong,

265
00:11:07,423 --> 00:11:08,956
but that looks like a sniper rifle.

266
00:11:08,957 --> 00:11:10,230
You wouldn't be wrong.

267
00:11:10,333 --> 00:11:14,091
Yo. Widmark Hotel. That's
where that conference is.

268
00:11:14,092 --> 00:11:15,546
Didn't Bracken say he was
giving a speech there

269
00:11:15,547 --> 00:11:16,643
in a couple of days?

270
00:11:21,889 --> 00:11:23,695
<i>I don't think Bracken's our killer.</i>

271
00:11:28,473 --> 00:11:29,608
He isn't.

272
00:11:33,124 --> 00:11:34,440
He's the target.

273
00:11:42,394 --> 00:11:44,040
Based on what we found in the car,

274
00:11:44,041 --> 00:11:46,422
someone was planning on
shooting the senator

275
00:11:46,423 --> 00:11:48,028
at the eco conference tomorrow night

276
00:11:48,029 --> 00:11:50,015
while he delivers his keynote speech.

277
00:11:50,016 --> 00:11:52,180
And if our suspect is still out there,

278
00:11:52,181 --> 00:11:53,478
he's still a threat.

279
00:11:53,509 --> 00:11:55,485
Did we get any prints off that duffel bag?

280
00:11:55,486 --> 00:11:56,286
Uh, not yet, sir.

281
00:11:56,287 --> 00:11:58,476
C.S.U. is still dusting
the car, the notebook,

282
00:11:58,477 --> 00:11:59,482
and everything else in the bag,

283
00:11:59,483 --> 00:12:00,786
including the rifle.

284
00:12:00,787 --> 00:12:02,793
Now we have serial numbers on the rifle,

285
00:12:02,794 --> 00:12:04,078
and we're looking into those.

286
00:12:04,079 --> 00:12:05,238
And our victim?

287
00:12:05,310 --> 00:12:07,490
How did Melanie Rogers
get mixed up in this?

288
00:12:07,491 --> 00:12:10,095
Somehow she stumbled upon his
plot, and he killed her.

289
00:12:10,096 --> 00:12:12,272
Oh, excuse me.

290
00:12:12,932 --> 00:12:13,992
It's the mayor.

291
00:12:13,993 --> 00:12:15,519
Keep me posted.
Mm-hmm.

292
00:12:15,885 --> 00:12:18,263
We might have a description
of our potential shooter.

293
00:12:18,527 --> 00:12:19,965
Widmark security stopped someone from

294
00:12:19,966 --> 00:12:22,146
getting into the conference
without proper credentials.

295
00:12:22,147 --> 00:12:22,719
When?

296
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,394
Two days ago. A Caucasian, baseball cap,

297
00:12:25,395 --> 00:12:27,168
beard, long stringy hair,

298
00:12:27,169 --> 00:12:29,126
and he was carrying a
large gray duffel bag,

299
00:12:29,127 --> 00:12:30,816
just like that one.
What time?

300
00:12:30,817 --> 00:12:32,755
They said it was about 3:45 P.M.

301
00:12:32,756 --> 00:12:34,117
That's when Melanie left the conference.

302
00:12:34,118 --> 00:12:36,209
In her message, she said
something wasn't right.

303
00:12:36,210 --> 00:12:38,244
What if she saw this guy and
followed him to the garage?

304
00:12:38,245 --> 00:12:40,057
All right. Grab Espo and a sketch artist.

305
00:12:40,058 --> 00:12:42,076
Go down, talk to security at the Widmark.

306
00:12:42,077 --> 00:12:44,950
I want a picture of this guy in
circulation within the hour.

307
00:12:44,951 --> 00:12:45,972
Yeah.

308
00:12:47,630 --> 00:12:48,792
Kate.

309
00:12:55,909 --> 00:12:58,076
I was finally gonna put
this guy away, Castle.

310
00:13:04,031 --> 00:13:06,546
And now I'm protecting the
man that murdered my mother.

311
00:13:08,511 --> 00:13:09,947
Senator, we can provide you

312
00:13:09,948 --> 00:13:11,878
with an increased security detail.

313
00:13:11,879 --> 00:13:13,977
But until we apprehend this man,

314
00:13:14,736 --> 00:13:17,209
I'd recommend you postpone your speech.

315
00:13:17,258 --> 00:13:18,962
Is that really necessary?

316
00:13:19,532 --> 00:13:21,756
I mean, isn't the threat
all but neutralized?

317
00:13:21,757 --> 00:13:23,593
But we haven't stopped him.

318
00:13:24,086 --> 00:13:26,326
Look, we're talking about
someone that is ruthless,

319
00:13:26,327 --> 00:13:27,774
methodical.

320
00:13:27,923 --> 00:13:30,014
Someone that killed Melanie Rogers

321
00:13:30,015 --> 00:13:31,953
just to keep her from talking.

322
00:13:32,384 --> 00:13:35,358
That suggests a person that is
intent on seeing this through.

323
00:13:35,359 --> 00:13:36,324
Yes, but you just said

324
00:13:36,325 --> 00:13:38,053
you could increase his security detail.

325
00:13:38,054 --> 00:13:41,699
Look, this isn't just any conference.

326
00:13:42,302 --> 00:13:43,817
The senator is going to unveil

327
00:13:43,818 --> 00:13:45,677
a far-reaching environmental initiative

328
00:13:45,678 --> 00:13:47,940
that is the cornerstone of his term.

329
00:13:47,941 --> 00:13:50,399
We have issued dozens
of press credentials--

330
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,795
Senator, I cannot guarantee your safety.

331
00:13:55,818 --> 00:13:57,650
I'm speaking at that conference.

332
00:13:58,959 --> 00:14:00,329
This keynote address

333
00:14:00,761 --> 00:14:02,571
puts me on the national stage.

334
00:14:03,218 --> 00:14:04,512
I'm not going to run and hide

335
00:14:04,513 --> 00:14:06,972
just because some wacko with a notebook

336
00:14:06,973 --> 00:14:08,354
made a threat.

337
00:14:08,907 --> 00:14:10,820
Now I suggest that you
people do whatever it takes

338
00:14:10,821 --> 00:14:12,015
to stop this man.

339
00:14:12,016 --> 00:14:12,881
Thank you.

340
00:14:13,940 --> 00:14:15,162
Very well, senator.

341
00:14:15,396 --> 00:14:17,640
Detective Beckett will
need a moment with you.

342
00:14:17,974 --> 00:14:19,072
Why?

343
00:14:20,946 --> 00:14:23,265
Because she's leading the investigation.

344
00:14:28,602 --> 00:14:29,712
Is there some reason why

345
00:14:29,713 --> 00:14:31,837
you don't want to work
with detective Beckett?

346
00:14:39,621 --> 00:14:42,492
Let's find somewhere private,
shall we, detective?

347
00:14:58,641 --> 00:14:59,519
Well...

348
00:15:02,183 --> 00:15:05,274
hard to miss the irony of this situation.

349
00:15:08,453 --> 00:15:11,243
Senator Bracken, do you have any enemies?

350
00:15:11,244 --> 00:15:13,280
Is there anyone that you can think of

351
00:15:13,281 --> 00:15:15,406
that would like to kill you?

352
00:15:17,678 --> 00:15:19,596
I get threatening letters
and e-mails all the time.

353
00:15:19,597 --> 00:15:21,020
Comes with the office.

354
00:15:21,497 --> 00:15:23,247
Mm.
My chief of staff keeps a file.

355
00:15:23,442 --> 00:15:25,385
Anyone with a legitimate claim?

356
00:15:25,709 --> 00:15:26,966
A man doesn't get to my position

357
00:15:26,967 --> 00:15:29,258
without upsetting people along the way.

358
00:15:29,541 --> 00:15:31,602
Most of them aren't crazy enough

359
00:15:31,603 --> 00:15:33,523
to want to try to kill me,

360
00:15:34,624 --> 00:15:36,788
present company excluded.

361
00:15:37,783 --> 00:15:38,989
You know, senator...

362
00:15:40,214 --> 00:15:43,496
I'm not the one that you should
be worried about right now.

363
00:15:46,476 --> 00:15:48,705
It's just us here, detective.

364
00:15:49,911 --> 00:15:52,300
A shooter on the loose,

365
00:15:52,694 --> 00:15:54,772
me in the crosshairs...

366
00:15:55,903 --> 00:15:58,198
must be a dream come true for you.

367
00:15:58,812 --> 00:15:59,921
In my dreams,

368
00:15:59,922 --> 00:16:02,673
I'm the one that gets to pull the trigger.

369
00:16:04,892 --> 00:16:05,582
But you know what?

370
00:16:05,583 --> 00:16:08,434
If you're not comfortable with
me leading this investigation,

371
00:16:08,435 --> 00:16:11,501
you're welcome to step outside
and tell everyone why.

372
00:16:18,104 --> 00:16:20,398
Well, then I guess we're
stuck with each other.

373
00:16:21,683 --> 00:16:23,804
So then let me make one thing clear.

374
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,314
This man killed Melanie Rogers,

375
00:16:26,315 --> 00:16:28,219
and when someone commits murder,

376
00:16:28,277 --> 00:16:31,224
whoever he is, senator,

377
00:16:32,353 --> 00:16:34,543
I will bring him to justice,

378
00:16:35,123 --> 00:16:37,197
no matter how long it takes.

379
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,626
I'll have my chief of staff
send over the letters.

380
00:16:59,156 --> 00:17:01,240
I'll tell you something, if I'm her,

381
00:17:01,241 --> 00:17:03,031
I sit in there shuffling
papers till whoever it is

382
00:17:03,032 --> 00:17:05,007
puts a bullet in Bracken's head.

383
00:17:05,742 --> 00:17:06,969
No, you wouldn't,

384
00:17:07,597 --> 00:17:09,517
'cause that would make you
no better than he is.

385
00:17:10,297 --> 00:17:11,872
The guy murdered Beckett's mother,

386
00:17:12,737 --> 00:17:14,050
captain Montgomery,

387
00:17:14,456 --> 00:17:15,697
who knows who else.

388
00:17:15,748 --> 00:17:17,938
Bracken's got it coming to
him, so I say, let it come.

389
00:17:20,387 --> 00:17:22,945
Mayor's asking for an update.
What's the latest?

390
00:17:23,176 --> 00:17:24,263
The serial number on that rifle

391
00:17:24,264 --> 00:17:26,609
led us to a hunting store
in Paterson, New Jersey.

392
00:17:26,620 --> 00:17:28,868
The owner I.D.'ed our
suspect from the sketch.

393
00:17:28,869 --> 00:17:31,574
The paperwork indicates that
several firearms were purchased,

394
00:17:31,575 --> 00:17:33,573
but the name and address are all bogus.

395
00:17:33,574 --> 00:17:35,902
Okay, take a few unis to canvass the area

396
00:17:35,903 --> 00:17:36,784
near the store

397
00:17:36,785 --> 00:17:38,508
and take the sketch of our suspect.

398
00:17:38,632 --> 00:17:39,624
All right.

399
00:17:39,832 --> 00:17:41,293
Detective Esposito.

400
00:17:41,294 --> 00:17:43,369
Any word from C.S.U.?
Yes, sir.

401
00:17:43,370 --> 00:17:44,881
They discovered part of a receipt

402
00:17:44,882 --> 00:17:46,522
with a smudge on it in the duffel bag.

403
00:17:46,523 --> 00:17:48,421
They're trying to get a
partial print off of that.

404
00:17:48,422 --> 00:17:50,544
Now there's no point of
sale on the receipt,

405
00:17:50,545 --> 00:17:52,606
but the SKU number matched that hat.

406
00:17:52,607 --> 00:17:53,720
The manufacturer's sending over

407
00:17:53,721 --> 00:17:55,471
a list of outlets in the tristate area,

408
00:17:55,472 --> 00:17:57,023
but there's over 200 locations.

409
00:17:57,024 --> 00:17:58,948
Focus on the ones in Jersey first.

410
00:17:59,006 --> 00:18:01,006
24 hours before Bracken speaks--

411
00:18:01,007 --> 00:18:02,355
Maybe Beckett will have better luck

412
00:18:02,356 --> 00:18:03,822
with those threat letters.

413
00:18:04,947 --> 00:18:06,618
Man, these people need to get a life.

414
00:18:06,725 --> 00:18:09,044
Most of these guys, it seems
their only companionship

415
00:18:09,045 --> 00:18:10,131
is the space alien

416
00:18:10,132 --> 00:18:12,034
that talks to them through their microwave.

417
00:18:12,035 --> 00:18:13,347
Yeah, well, there's a lot of lonely

418
00:18:13,348 --> 00:18:15,776
and confused people out there.

419
00:18:15,850 --> 00:18:17,590
But so far, none of the letters

420
00:18:17,591 --> 00:18:20,451
match the handwriting in
our suspect's notebook.

421
00:18:20,553 --> 00:18:22,236
Considering what he's capable of,

422
00:18:22,237 --> 00:18:25,800
you would think Bracken would
have more formidable enemies.

423
00:18:25,801 --> 00:18:28,119
Oh, obviously, you never saw
the letter that I sent him.

424
00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:29,945
No, I did, actually. I
liked the way you, uh,

425
00:18:29,946 --> 00:18:31,941
dotted the "i" on "kill"
with a little heart.

426
00:18:31,942 --> 00:18:32,651
It was a nice touch.

427
00:18:32,652 --> 00:18:35,343
Well, I was trying to give it
a personal feel. Well done.

428
00:18:41,455 --> 00:18:43,213
So we're really not gonna talk about this?

429
00:18:43,817 --> 00:18:45,440
I mean, Castle, what is
there to talk about?

430
00:18:45,441 --> 00:18:47,730
Honestly? Practically everything.

431
00:18:47,731 --> 00:18:50,767
Which is why all I can do is
treat it like another case,

432
00:18:51,121 --> 00:18:52,742
'cause that's what it is. It's...

433
00:18:54,004 --> 00:18:55,773
just like any other case.

434
00:19:01,581 --> 00:19:02,756
You're tired, Castle.

435
00:19:02,757 --> 00:19:03,853
Why don't you go get some rest?

436
00:19:03,854 --> 00:19:05,528
No, no, no, I can stay if you like.

437
00:19:05,529 --> 00:19:06,758
No, come on.
Go.

438
00:19:06,977 --> 00:19:08,748
I'll call you if I need anything, okay?

439
00:19:14,506 --> 00:19:16,871
You really are remarkable, you know that?

440
00:19:49,752 --> 00:19:50,856
I'm working on this case

441
00:19:50,857 --> 00:19:52,948
where I need to find a suspect,

442
00:19:54,191 --> 00:19:56,213
and I came across a piece of evidence.

443
00:19:57,094 --> 00:19:59,009
It's a letter that he wrote.

444
00:19:59,010 --> 00:20:02,260
And there's no address, there's no name,

445
00:20:02,956 --> 00:20:05,268
just a postmark from New Jersey.

446
00:20:07,729 --> 00:20:10,868
And I know in my gut that
this is our big break.

447
00:20:11,728 --> 00:20:14,540
One way or another, it's gonna
lead us straight to him.

448
00:20:15,738 --> 00:20:17,814
Yet, here you are talking to me.

449
00:20:19,885 --> 00:20:24,356
If we find this suspect,
then someone worse,

450
00:20:24,728 --> 00:20:28,096
much worse, is going to escape justice.

451
00:20:28,300 --> 00:20:30,931
I take it no one else
knows about the letter.

452
00:20:30,932 --> 00:20:32,623
No, not yet.

453
00:20:32,704 --> 00:20:34,399
Well, as a police officer,

454
00:20:34,592 --> 00:20:37,400
you must have faced similar dilemmas.

455
00:20:37,617 --> 00:20:38,634
Yeah.

456
00:20:39,931 --> 00:20:41,629
Why is this time different?

457
00:20:42,488 --> 00:20:43,962
Because this time, it feels like

458
00:20:43,963 --> 00:20:45,616
there's no right choice.

459
00:20:47,254 --> 00:20:48,893
Maybe the right choice

460
00:20:49,464 --> 00:20:51,313
is the one you can live with.

461
00:21:10,759 --> 00:21:12,469
Hey, you guys seen Beckett?

462
00:21:12,470 --> 00:21:14,616
No. Uh, not since last night.

463
00:21:14,617 --> 00:21:15,637
We thought she was with you.

464
00:21:15,638 --> 00:21:17,134
No, I tried her a couple
of times this morning,

465
00:21:17,135 --> 00:21:17,930
but she wasn't picking up.

466
00:21:17,931 --> 00:21:19,044
All right. Thanks.

467
00:21:19,512 --> 00:21:20,337
Yo. I'm trying to get through

468
00:21:20,338 --> 00:21:22,541
this list of stores that
sell the baseball caps.

469
00:21:22,542 --> 00:21:23,887
Half of 'em aren't even open yet.

470
00:21:23,888 --> 00:21:24,625
What about you?

471
00:21:24,626 --> 00:21:27,136
Nada. The canvass around the
gun store turned up empty.

472
00:21:28,056 --> 00:21:28,801
Hey.

473
00:21:29,136 --> 00:21:29,898
Hey.

474
00:21:29,899 --> 00:21:32,208
You guys, where are we on the suspect?

475
00:21:32,209 --> 00:21:33,149
Nowhere.

476
00:21:33,150 --> 00:21:35,162
And Senator Bracken speaks
in less than ten hours.

477
00:21:35,163 --> 00:21:36,563
You find anything in those letters?

478
00:21:36,795 --> 00:21:39,548
Uh, no. Nothing significant.

479
00:21:40,499 --> 00:21:41,424
You doing all right?

480
00:21:42,344 --> 00:21:43,359
I need a second.

481
00:22:25,897 --> 00:22:26,663
You guys...
Yo.

482
00:22:26,664 --> 00:22:28,665
There's something that I--
I just heard back from C.S.U.

483
00:22:28,666 --> 00:22:30,344
on that receipt from the duffel bag.

484
00:22:30,345 --> 00:22:31,442
They get a print off that smudge?

485
00:22:31,443 --> 00:22:32,422
No, but it contained traces

486
00:22:32,423 --> 00:22:34,481
of synthetic motor oil
and brake pad residue.

487
00:22:34,482 --> 00:22:35,654
Sounds like our guy's a mechanic.

488
00:22:35,655 --> 00:22:37,820
So then maybe he was shopping
for the rifle near work.

489
00:22:37,821 --> 00:22:38,884
Where's that store again?

490
00:22:38,885 --> 00:22:40,085
Paterson, just off the highway.

491
00:22:40,086 --> 00:22:40,722
It's a place to start.

492
00:22:40,723 --> 00:22:43,135
All right, I'm gonna get you
guys addresses on your way.

493
00:22:43,136 --> 00:22:45,399
I'll compile a list of
every service station

494
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:46,840
within a 5-mile radius,

495
00:22:46,841 --> 00:22:48,376
and we'll expand from there.

496
00:22:49,472 --> 00:22:50,649
Were you gonna say something?

497
00:22:50,923 --> 00:22:52,137
No. We're past it.

498
00:22:56,030 --> 00:22:58,868
Who new Paterson had so
many service stations, huh?

499
00:22:58,869 --> 00:23:00,077
I'm pretty sure we left Paterson

500
00:23:00,078 --> 00:23:01,355
five shops ago.

501
00:23:01,727 --> 00:23:03,638
Ugh. Back in 20 minutes.

502
00:23:03,639 --> 00:23:05,101
Well, we don't have 20 minutes to waste.

503
00:23:05,102 --> 00:23:07,199
Let's move on to the next on.
We'll circle back around.

504
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:08,818
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.

505
00:23:09,219 --> 00:23:10,907
Hey, look on top of the counter.

506
00:23:10,908 --> 00:23:12,133
They sell those hats here.

507
00:23:14,696 --> 00:23:16,311
Open up! Police business!

508
00:23:17,877 --> 00:23:19,755
All right! I'm coming! Relax.

509
00:23:20,250 --> 00:23:21,715
Don't break my glass.

510
00:23:21,716 --> 00:23:22,619
Yeah, I see it.

511
00:23:23,332 --> 00:23:24,318
What?
How you doing?

512
00:23:24,319 --> 00:23:26,717
NYPD. You know this guy?

513
00:23:28,812 --> 00:23:29,529
Maybe.

514
00:23:29,955 --> 00:23:31,621
He looks like one of my mechanics.

515
00:23:31,622 --> 00:23:32,212
I mean, he used to be.

516
00:23:32,213 --> 00:23:33,718
I laid him off, like, three weeks ago.

517
00:23:33,719 --> 00:23:35,035
Do you have any paperwork
he might have filled out?

518
00:23:35,036 --> 00:23:36,322
Maybe a work order?

519
00:23:36,778 --> 00:23:38,099
I might have something back here.

520
00:23:46,211 --> 00:23:47,388
Yeah, that's it right there.

521
00:23:51,679 --> 00:23:53,800
Handwriting's a match. It's our guy.

522
00:23:54,331 --> 00:23:57,120
Robert McManus has a
history of schizophrenia

523
00:23:57,121 --> 00:23:58,970
multiple stays at a psych ward,

524
00:23:59,326 --> 00:24:01,690
recent episodes were triggered
by his son's death.

525
00:24:02,433 --> 00:24:03,134
Hey.

526
00:24:04,191 --> 00:24:05,704
Hey, where are we on deployment?

527
00:24:05,705 --> 00:24:07,628
Every beat cop in the city has his photo.

528
00:24:07,629 --> 00:24:09,065
S.W.A.T.'s sitting on his place in Jersey,

529
00:24:09,066 --> 00:24:10,505
but his neighbors say he
hasn't been there in a month.

530
00:24:10,506 --> 00:24:11,924
He disappears for long stretches.

531
00:24:11,925 --> 00:24:13,322
We're scouring through his financials,

532
00:24:13,323 --> 00:24:15,455
but they are severely outdated.

533
00:24:15,456 --> 00:24:17,153
The guy closed his accounts years ago.

534
00:24:17,154 --> 00:24:18,611
Basically living off the grid.

535
00:24:18,612 --> 00:24:19,559
Got something.

536
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:22,072
We canvassed near a diner
McManus used to frequent.

537
00:24:22,073 --> 00:24:24,443
An S.R.O. desk clerk just I.D.'ed him.

538
00:24:24,444 --> 00:24:26,109
He's been staying there a month.

539
00:24:36,312 --> 00:24:37,039
NYPD!

540
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:38,712
NYPD! Don't move!

541
00:24:39,918 --> 00:24:40,673
Clear!

542
00:24:42,061 --> 00:24:42,737
Clear!

543
00:24:43,393 --> 00:24:43,968
Clear.

544
00:24:43,969 --> 00:24:44,814
Take the place apart.

545
00:24:44,815 --> 00:24:46,746
Look for anything that
might lead us to him.

546
00:24:46,747 --> 00:24:48,019
We should check the rest of the building.

547
00:24:48,020 --> 00:24:50,499
I'll talk to the manager for
details on his routine.

548
00:25:01,654 --> 00:25:03,496
NYPD. Show me your hands.

549
00:25:07,211 --> 00:25:07,829
Don't move.

550
00:25:07,830 --> 00:25:09,307
Don't move or I'll shoot!

551
00:25:36,612 --> 00:25:38,938
Hey. I just spoke to Ryan.

552
00:25:39,154 --> 00:25:40,904
McManus is still out there,

553
00:25:40,905 --> 00:25:42,589
but, uh, the boys are going door to door

554
00:25:42,590 --> 00:25:43,433
in every building nearby.

555
00:25:43,434 --> 00:25:45,702
I had him in my sights.

556
00:25:46,752 --> 00:25:47,804
I had him.

557
00:25:48,251 --> 00:25:50,564
So you missed. So what? It
could happen to anyone.

558
00:25:50,565 --> 00:25:51,365
No.

559
00:25:51,903 --> 00:25:53,113
I didn't miss.

560
00:25:54,613 --> 00:25:55,437
What do you mean?

561
00:26:00,470 --> 00:26:01,692
I found a letter...

562
00:26:02,885 --> 00:26:04,460
in the threats file.

563
00:26:06,030 --> 00:26:07,656
It was from McManus.

564
00:26:13,416 --> 00:26:15,083
How long have you known about this?

565
00:26:15,084 --> 00:26:16,201
Since last night.

566
00:26:16,994 --> 00:26:20,255
McManus was accusing Bracken
of murdering his son.

567
00:26:20,256 --> 00:26:22,215
I looked into it. He was a 24-year-old kid.

568
00:26:22,216 --> 00:26:25,424
He was an intern for Bracken's
reelection campaign.

569
00:26:25,425 --> 00:26:27,390
He had a meeting scheduled with a reporter,

570
00:26:27,391 --> 00:26:29,562
and the next day they found him hanged.

571
00:26:29,563 --> 00:26:30,776
And you think Bracken--

572
00:26:30,777 --> 00:26:32,850
I don't know, Castle.
My God.

573
00:26:34,556 --> 00:26:36,926
I almost suppressed evidence.

574
00:26:37,585 --> 00:26:39,053
I was gonna burn that letter.

575
00:26:39,054 --> 00:26:39,889
But you didn't.

576
00:26:39,890 --> 00:26:43,861
I didn't miss McManus.

577
00:26:44,781 --> 00:26:48,083
I looked him in the eye and I saw his pain.

578
00:26:48,994 --> 00:26:50,760
And I couldn't take that shot.

579
00:26:51,862 --> 00:26:54,049
What if I wanted him to get away,

580
00:26:54,050 --> 00:26:56,478
wanted him to go through with this?

581
00:26:56,479 --> 00:26:58,059
Then what does that make me?

582
00:27:01,555 --> 00:27:02,589
Is there anything new?

583
00:27:02,856 --> 00:27:04,446
Nothing yet on McManus,

584
00:27:04,447 --> 00:27:06,382
but a search of his room turned up wires,

585
00:27:06,383 --> 00:27:08,303
a detonator, traces of c-4.

586
00:27:08,740 --> 00:27:10,497
It looks like he was building a bomb.

587
00:27:10,498 --> 00:27:11,811
A bomb?
Uh...

588
00:27:12,777 --> 00:27:14,007
Did anyone find it?

589
00:27:14,008 --> 00:27:15,803
No. If he built something,

590
00:27:15,804 --> 00:27:17,302
it's either with him

591
00:27:17,303 --> 00:27:19,415
or already out there waiting to go off.

592
00:27:23,952 --> 00:27:24,974
Beckett, hang on.

593
00:27:24,975 --> 00:27:26,657
He had a rifle, Castle.

594
00:27:26,658 --> 00:27:29,258
A rifle. Not a bomb.

595
00:27:29,259 --> 00:27:31,303
If he detonates that thing
tonight at the conference

596
00:27:31,304 --> 00:27:32,922
and innocent people get hurt--

597
00:27:32,923 --> 00:27:34,186
Okay, this is not your fault.

598
00:27:34,187 --> 00:27:36,502
How is it not my fault? I'm a cop.

599
00:27:36,503 --> 00:27:38,602
I had a job to do and I didn't do it.

600
00:27:38,603 --> 00:27:39,549
I've gotta make this right.

601
00:27:39,550 --> 00:27:41,953
I've gotta find that bomb
and save Bracken's life.

602
00:27:43,007 --> 00:27:44,408
Looks like you just got some help.

603
00:27:46,061 --> 00:27:48,326
Found him hiding on a
rooftop three blocks away.

604
00:27:48,327 --> 00:27:49,447
What about the bomb?

605
00:27:49,448 --> 00:27:51,459
Asked him about it. Asked him
about Melanie Rogers, too.

606
00:27:51,460 --> 00:27:52,495
He's not much of a talker.

607
00:27:52,496 --> 00:27:54,297
He hasn't said a word
since we picked him up.

608
00:27:55,157 --> 00:27:56,695
Take him to interrogation.

609
00:28:00,718 --> 00:28:02,478
What makes you think
he's gonna talk to you?

610
00:28:02,723 --> 00:28:03,505
'Cause...

611
00:28:04,249 --> 00:28:05,405
I know him.

612
00:28:11,095 --> 00:28:12,205
Hi, Robert.

613
00:28:13,769 --> 00:28:14,745
I'm Kate.

614
00:28:18,774 --> 00:28:20,118
Why don't you take those things off?

615
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:21,435
They look uncomfortable.

616
00:28:31,271 --> 00:28:33,910
I know what it's like to
lose someone that you love,

617
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:36,915
to live with that pain...

618
00:28:41,503 --> 00:28:42,767
to feel the rage

619
00:28:42,768 --> 00:28:45,464
towards the person responsible for it...

620
00:28:52,301 --> 00:28:53,636
towards Bracken.

621
00:28:58,214 --> 00:29:00,218
He took someone close to me.

622
00:29:03,752 --> 00:29:04,974
He killed my mother

623
00:29:05,934 --> 00:29:07,739
and then he went after my friends,

624
00:29:08,055 --> 00:29:09,440
even tried to kill me.

625
00:29:09,441 --> 00:29:11,106
Is she talking about Bracken?

626
00:29:11,107 --> 00:29:13,675
She's... just trying to get
through to him anyway you can.

627
00:29:19,201 --> 00:29:20,593
The man killed my son.

628
00:29:21,868 --> 00:29:22,821
No one cared.

629
00:29:23,079 --> 00:29:23,884
I care.

630
00:29:25,731 --> 00:29:26,786
He needs to pay.

631
00:29:27,102 --> 00:29:29,490
Not with a bomb, Robert.

632
00:29:30,890 --> 00:29:32,149
You and me, we're not like him.

633
00:29:32,150 --> 00:29:33,908
We don't hurt innocent people.

634
00:29:35,761 --> 00:29:37,145
Where's the c-4?

635
00:29:41,286 --> 00:29:42,888
You're trying to confuse me...

636
00:29:45,113 --> 00:29:46,169
or trick me...

637
00:29:46,970 --> 00:29:48,377
into saying something I shouldn't.

638
00:29:48,378 --> 00:29:49,992
I'm trying to take down Bracken,

639
00:29:49,993 --> 00:29:51,135
same as you.

640
00:29:51,136 --> 00:29:53,514
And we gotta do it in the right way.

641
00:29:53,515 --> 00:29:55,957
You and me are on the same side, Robert.

642
00:29:55,958 --> 00:29:57,248
You're on his side.

643
00:29:57,694 --> 00:29:59,080
He controls everybody.

644
00:29:59,487 --> 00:30:01,071
You're all in his pocket.

645
00:30:01,283 --> 00:30:03,557
Every last one of ya!

646
00:30:03,558 --> 00:30:06,456
No, I'm not. I'm just like you, Robert.

647
00:30:06,457 --> 00:30:07,650
She's losing him.

648
00:30:07,651 --> 00:30:09,195
You're not like me.

649
00:30:09,766 --> 00:30:12,882
You're making stuff up,
making up stories!

650
00:30:12,883 --> 00:30:14,547
If you went through what I went through,

651
00:30:14,548 --> 00:30:16,418
you would want to see him dead!

652
00:30:16,419 --> 00:30:19,736
Everything that I told you was true.

653
00:30:20,266 --> 00:30:21,369
Robert, look at me.

654
00:30:27,134 --> 00:30:28,872
Where is the c-4?

655
00:30:28,873 --> 00:30:31,415
If that thing goes off, then
there's blood on our hands,

656
00:30:31,416 --> 00:30:32,855
and I cannot live with that

657
00:30:32,856 --> 00:30:34,423
and I know that you can't either.

658
00:30:36,137 --> 00:30:37,924
Detective, a word.

659
00:30:37,925 --> 00:30:40,256
Sir.
Detective.

660
00:30:46,844 --> 00:30:48,856
Sir, I can do this. I can reach him.

661
00:30:48,857 --> 00:30:50,285
It's over, detective.

662
00:30:50,286 --> 00:30:51,348
Just give me another minute.

663
00:30:51,349 --> 00:30:53,214
I just got a call from the feds.

664
00:30:53,547 --> 00:30:54,712
They found the bomb.

665
00:30:56,579 --> 00:30:59,115
McManus rented a box at a post office.

666
00:30:59,116 --> 00:31:00,273
The c-4 was there.

667
00:31:00,274 --> 00:31:02,119
He'd wired it into a vest.

668
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,868
He also obtained credentials
for the conference somehow.

669
00:31:04,869 --> 00:31:05,937
Well, thank you, captain,

670
00:31:05,938 --> 00:31:07,347
for everything you've done.

671
00:31:07,348 --> 00:31:09,139
Well, actually,

672
00:31:09,140 --> 00:31:11,253
detective Beckett deserves
most of the credit.

673
00:31:11,713 --> 00:31:12,769
She led the team.

674
00:31:14,883 --> 00:31:16,026
Excuse me, senator.

675
00:31:16,357 --> 00:31:18,117
Good afternoon, Mr. Mayor.

676
00:31:24,253 --> 00:31:26,005
I heard how you led the team.

677
00:31:27,495 --> 00:31:30,966
You fired, what, two shots from close range

678
00:31:30,967 --> 00:31:32,751
and both of them missed?

679
00:31:34,709 --> 00:31:37,386
All this talk about justice...

680
00:31:38,343 --> 00:31:40,178
I guess I was right about you.

681
00:32:15,008 --> 00:32:16,382
Check this out.

682
00:32:17,638 --> 00:32:20,779
What better way to celebrate
the end of a difficult case

683
00:32:20,780 --> 00:32:22,748
than with a bottle of--

684
00:32:22,749 --> 00:32:24,979
What are you doing?

685
00:32:25,258 --> 00:32:26,953
Castle, look at this vest

686
00:32:26,954 --> 00:32:28,862
McManus supposedly made.

687
00:32:28,863 --> 00:32:30,757
The zip ties and the wires...

688
00:32:32,656 --> 00:32:34,544
they're expertly done.

689
00:32:35,961 --> 00:32:36,845
You saw McManus.

690
00:32:36,846 --> 00:32:39,278
He was barely able to button his own shirt.

691
00:32:39,279 --> 00:32:40,582
In his current state, no.

692
00:32:40,583 --> 00:32:42,782
But he could've done this while
he was still on his meds.

693
00:32:42,783 --> 00:32:44,670
And what about Melanie's body?

694
00:32:44,671 --> 00:32:46,979
He burned it and then he
knocked out her teeth

695
00:32:46,980 --> 00:32:48,695
to keep it unidentifiable.

696
00:32:49,075 --> 00:32:51,807
And then he leaves a duffel bag
in a stolen car for us to find?

697
00:32:51,808 --> 00:32:53,237
That doesn't make any sense.

698
00:32:53,238 --> 00:32:54,385
Well, he's mentally ill.

699
00:32:54,386 --> 00:32:56,630
I mean, not everything he
does is going to make sense.

700
00:32:56,631 --> 00:32:59,440
No, Castle. Something is not right.

701
00:32:59,441 --> 00:33:02,067
That Zippo lighter that we heard
on Melanie's voice mail--

702
00:33:02,068 --> 00:33:03,240
McManus doesn't smoke.

703
00:33:03,241 --> 00:33:05,614
We didn't find a Zippo
in any of his things.

704
00:33:05,615 --> 00:33:06,442
Kate...

705
00:33:08,188 --> 00:33:09,106
let it go.

706
00:33:09,495 --> 00:33:11,799
I mean, you don't have anything
to prove, not to Bracken,

707
00:33:12,312 --> 00:33:13,739
not to me, not to yourself.

708
00:33:13,740 --> 00:33:15,313
Castle, this isn't about proving something.

709
00:33:15,314 --> 00:33:16,891
This is about evidence.

710
00:33:16,892 --> 00:33:17,874
Well, all the evidence--

711
00:33:17,875 --> 00:33:19,514
the letter, the notebook, the bomb--

712
00:33:19,515 --> 00:33:21,302
everything traces back to McManus.

713
00:33:23,409 --> 00:33:25,265
What if somebody wanted us to find him?

714
00:33:25,266 --> 00:33:26,552
What if they're framing him

715
00:33:27,051 --> 00:33:29,222
so that everyone would think
that the threat was over

716
00:33:29,223 --> 00:33:31,335
while the real assassin is still out there?

717
00:33:32,100 --> 00:33:33,676
The C-4 in the vest--

718
00:33:33,677 --> 00:33:35,942
What if that was the bomb
that we were supposed to find

719
00:33:35,943 --> 00:33:37,568
and there's another bomb
that's still out there,

720
00:33:37,569 --> 00:33:39,350
planned for the keynote address?

721
00:33:39,741 --> 00:33:41,365
That's an event whose time and place

722
00:33:41,366 --> 00:33:42,783
has been known for weeks.

723
00:33:44,666 --> 00:33:47,198
If a bomb went off during Bracken's speech,

724
00:33:47,199 --> 00:33:48,497
they could say...

725
00:33:48,976 --> 00:33:51,133
McManus set it before he was apprehended.

726
00:33:51,134 --> 00:33:53,134
Bracken's supposed to go onstage at 8:00.

727
00:33:53,135 --> 00:33:54,918
That's 20 minutes away.

728
00:33:54,919 --> 00:33:56,754
Look, I know that I don't have any proof.

729
00:33:56,755 --> 00:33:58,384
I know that this sounds crazy--

730
00:33:58,385 --> 00:34:01,673
And you know how determined
Bracken was to give this speech.

731
00:34:01,674 --> 00:34:02,941
If you stop it and...

732
00:34:03,774 --> 00:34:04,583
you're wrong,

733
00:34:05,727 --> 00:34:07,179
your career is over.

734
00:34:07,180 --> 00:34:08,178
And if I'm right?

735
00:34:19,597 --> 00:34:22,162
This is detective Beckett.
Badge number 4-1-3-1-9.

736
00:34:22,163 --> 00:34:24,821
I'm calling for the evacuation
of the Widmark Hotel.

737
00:34:37,235 --> 00:34:38,236
Detective Beckett.

738
00:34:39,435 --> 00:34:40,894
Castle, why don't you see
if you can get an update

739
00:34:40,895 --> 00:34:41,865
from the bomb squad?

740
00:34:41,866 --> 00:34:42,590
Right.

741
00:34:43,252 --> 00:34:44,535
What the hell is going on here?

742
00:34:44,536 --> 00:34:46,087
Who called in the bomb squad?

743
00:34:46,088 --> 00:34:47,675
We had a credible threat, sir.

744
00:34:47,676 --> 00:34:49,485
Credible according to who?

745
00:34:51,391 --> 00:34:52,850
I think we should speak alone.

746
00:35:00,076 --> 00:35:01,581
We believe someone that you know

747
00:35:01,582 --> 00:35:02,810
is trying to kill you.

748
00:35:03,676 --> 00:35:04,430
What?

749
00:35:05,074 --> 00:35:07,413
You already have the man in custody.

750
00:35:07,414 --> 00:35:09,337
We believe McManus was set up

751
00:35:09,338 --> 00:35:11,285
because of the threatening
letter that he sent you,

752
00:35:11,286 --> 00:35:12,923
which means the individual involved

753
00:35:12,924 --> 00:35:15,387
has access to the files in your office.

754
00:35:15,388 --> 00:35:17,020
And you have evidence for all of this?

755
00:35:19,255 --> 00:35:20,142
You don't have evidence?

756
00:35:20,143 --> 00:35:22,368
Look, I'm not gonna make this
kind of accusation lightly.

757
00:35:22,369 --> 00:35:24,741
Are you--
So you called in a bomb scare based on--

758
00:35:24,742 --> 00:35:26,157
on--on what, a hunch?

759
00:35:26,558 --> 00:35:27,246
Beckett.

760
00:35:28,655 --> 00:35:29,447
We finished our search

761
00:35:29,448 --> 00:35:31,335
of the primary target area, detective.

762
00:35:31,336 --> 00:35:32,992
We found no explosive device.

763
00:35:32,993 --> 00:35:34,643
What about the stage? Did
you check the podium?

764
00:35:34,644 --> 00:35:36,423
We swept everything in a 50-foot radius

765
00:35:36,424 --> 00:35:37,888
of where the senator would be speaking.

766
00:35:37,889 --> 00:35:38,835
All right, well, this is ridiculous.

767
00:35:38,836 --> 00:35:41,209
Let's just get everybody back inside.

768
00:35:41,210 --> 00:35:42,853
I'm sorry, senator. We
still have to conduct

769
00:35:42,854 --> 00:35:44,626
a thorough search of the building.

770
00:35:44,627 --> 00:35:46,635
It's gonna take a few
more hours, I'm afraid.

771
00:35:50,068 --> 00:35:51,879
You think I don't know what you're doing?

772
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,157
You let McManus get away so
that he would take me down,

773
00:35:54,158 --> 00:35:56,053
and when that didn't play
out, you decided to ruin

774
00:35:56,054 --> 00:35:58,246
the most important moment of my career.

775
00:35:58,247 --> 00:35:59,077
That's not what this is a--

776
00:35:59,078 --> 00:36:01,036
No, you save that for the review board.

777
00:36:01,962 --> 00:36:03,971
You have overplayed your hand,

778
00:36:04,427 --> 00:36:07,604
and I am going to bury you.

779
00:36:11,465 --> 00:36:13,499
Oh, God, Castle. I don't understand.

780
00:36:13,500 --> 00:36:15,087
How did we get this so wrong?

781
00:36:15,088 --> 00:36:16,167
We knew we were taking a risk.

782
00:36:16,168 --> 00:36:17,638
No, there's gotta be a reason

783
00:36:17,639 --> 00:36:19,534
that they were framing McManus.

784
00:36:19,535 --> 00:36:22,284
They had to have been planning
this for tonight, here.

785
00:36:22,285 --> 00:36:23,818
That's the only thing that makes sense.

786
00:36:23,819 --> 00:36:25,715
Or he wasn't being framed.

787
00:36:25,716 --> 00:36:27,643
Maybe they couldn't get
the bomb in the building.

788
00:36:27,644 --> 00:36:28,722
With the heightened security

789
00:36:28,723 --> 00:36:30,112
because McManus was on the loose,

790
00:36:30,113 --> 00:36:32,029
maybe they had to make a different plan.

791
00:36:32,030 --> 00:36:33,897
Place the bomb somewhere more accessible.

792
00:36:33,898 --> 00:36:34,643
Kate...

793
00:36:35,578 --> 00:36:36,382
It's over.

794
00:37:30,411 --> 00:37:31,181
Kate!

795
00:37:33,286 --> 00:37:34,040
Castle...

796
00:37:34,041 --> 00:37:34,987
The driver.

797
00:37:47,412 --> 00:37:48,422
Read him his rights.

798
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:54,736
His name is Noah Charles.

799
00:37:54,737 --> 00:37:57,644
He was my driver for five years.

800
00:37:57,645 --> 00:37:59,890
Any reason why he'd suddenly want you dead?

801
00:38:01,071 --> 00:38:04,050
I assume because someone paid
him a great deal of money.

802
00:38:05,450 --> 00:38:07,079
You don't seem shocked.

803
00:38:07,529 --> 00:38:09,473
There's another world
out there, Mr. Castle,

804
00:38:09,474 --> 00:38:11,285
one that most people don't see,

805
00:38:11,749 --> 00:38:14,207
run by money, influence, power.

806
00:38:14,644 --> 00:38:16,809
And the people in it will
do anything they can

807
00:38:16,810 --> 00:38:18,251
to stay on top.

808
00:38:20,404 --> 00:38:22,631
But I assume that you already know that.

809
00:38:25,515 --> 00:38:27,603
I wouldn't have done it, you know,

810
00:38:27,604 --> 00:38:28,431
what she did.

811
00:38:30,313 --> 00:38:31,599
I'd have stood and watched.

812
00:38:35,501 --> 00:38:37,099
So he's not talking.

813
00:38:37,665 --> 00:38:40,518
But a search of his apartment
turned up a pair of gloves

814
00:38:40,519 --> 00:38:43,320
with traces of Melanie Rogers' blood on it.

815
00:38:43,321 --> 00:38:45,558
They also found a fake
beard and a baseball cap

816
00:38:45,559 --> 00:38:46,989
just like McManus'.

817
00:38:46,990 --> 00:38:49,520
So McManus could be seen at
the conference by security.

818
00:38:49,521 --> 00:38:50,699
It's all part of the setup.

819
00:38:50,700 --> 00:38:52,932
Melanie met Noah a bunch of times.

820
00:38:52,933 --> 00:38:55,063
She probably recognized him on the day,

821
00:38:55,064 --> 00:38:56,260
wondered what he was doing,

822
00:38:56,261 --> 00:38:58,408
and followed him.

823
00:38:58,409 --> 00:38:59,298
If she got on to him,

824
00:38:59,299 --> 00:39:01,233
he would've had no choice but to kill her.

825
00:39:01,234 --> 00:39:02,128
What a shame.

826
00:39:04,906 --> 00:39:06,235
She was a sweet kid.

827
00:39:09,277 --> 00:39:10,988
Hey, got a sec?

828
00:39:11,240 --> 00:39:11,895
Yeah.

829
00:39:13,396 --> 00:39:16,124
We did a little digging
into that driver of yours.

830
00:39:16,125 --> 00:39:19,121
Turns out you're not his
only employer, senator.

831
00:39:19,122 --> 00:39:20,680
We took a look into his financials.

832
00:39:20,681 --> 00:39:21,987
There's a series of large deposits

833
00:39:21,988 --> 00:39:23,320
made into his checking account.

834
00:39:23,321 --> 00:39:24,242
Let me guess.

835
00:39:24,243 --> 00:39:26,955
Untraceable wire transfers
bounced through shadow accounts

836
00:39:26,956 --> 00:39:28,418
in Switzerland and the middle east.

837
00:39:28,419 --> 00:39:29,559
Just like you would've done.

838
00:39:33,285 --> 00:39:34,194
Thanks, guys.

839
00:39:37,759 --> 00:39:39,623
You know who's behind this, don't you?

840
00:39:39,624 --> 00:39:41,001
I have my suspicions.

841
00:39:41,002 --> 00:39:41,717
Who?

842
00:39:42,445 --> 00:39:43,778
Someone who's gotten rich

843
00:39:43,779 --> 00:39:45,924
making powerful people promises

844
00:39:45,925 --> 00:39:47,815
that I needed to keep.

845
00:39:47,816 --> 00:39:49,102
What does a kingmaker do

846
00:39:49,762 --> 00:39:51,876
when the king no longer follows orders?

847
00:39:52,404 --> 00:39:53,353
I need a name.

848
00:39:54,021 --> 00:39:55,242
You've done enough, detective.

849
00:39:55,243 --> 00:39:56,922
Senator, that person is still out there,

850
00:39:56,923 --> 00:39:58,814
and I have no way of getting to him.

851
00:39:59,950 --> 00:40:01,233
You're not safe.

852
00:40:02,575 --> 00:40:04,401
I'm touched by your concern,

853
00:40:04,402 --> 00:40:06,836
but I think maybe you forget
who you're dealing with.

854
00:40:08,211 --> 00:40:09,401
Sir, we have to leave.

855
00:40:09,402 --> 00:40:11,082
You're already 30 minutes behind schedule.

856
00:40:12,092 --> 00:40:14,383
Detective Beckett, would
you, uh, walk me out?

857
00:40:30,576 --> 00:40:31,959
You saved my life.

858
00:40:32,755 --> 00:40:34,475
Yeah, well, you can't win 'em all, can you?

859
00:40:35,681 --> 00:40:37,699
I suppose this means I'm in your debt.

860
00:40:39,002 --> 00:40:41,112
Nothing's changed between us, senator.

861
00:40:41,113 --> 00:40:41,989
Even so,

862
00:40:43,137 --> 00:40:45,346
it's a dangerous world
out there, detective.

863
00:40:46,704 --> 00:40:48,891
You never know when you
might need a friend.

864
00:40:53,003 --> 00:40:54,352
McManus' son...

865
00:40:56,763 --> 00:40:57,694
Was that you?

866
00:40:59,275 --> 00:41:00,324
If I said no,

867
00:41:01,135 --> 00:41:02,557
would you really believe me?

868
00:41:03,603 --> 00:41:04,821
There he is.
Senator!

869
00:41:04,822 --> 00:41:06,937
Senator Bracken! Senator Bracken!

870
00:41:06,938 --> 00:41:07,760
Senator. Senator!

871
00:41:07,761 --> 00:41:10,161
Is it true the attempt on
your life was an inside job?

872
00:41:10,162 --> 00:41:12,520
Witnesses say they arrested your driver.
Any comment?

873
00:41:12,521 --> 00:41:14,468
Did it have anything to do with
your environmental initiative?

874
00:41:14,469 --> 00:41:15,662
Look, the senator is very busy--

875
00:41:15,663 --> 00:41:17,981
No, th-that's okay.
I'll--I'll make a statement.

876
00:41:19,527 --> 00:41:20,503
As you all know, last night

877
00:41:20,504 --> 00:41:22,279
an attempt was made on my life.

878
00:41:22,887 --> 00:41:25,241
And though I was not able
to introduce my initiative

879
00:41:25,242 --> 00:41:26,766
at the eco conference,

880
00:41:27,221 --> 00:41:29,281
it has only strengthened my resolve

881
00:41:29,282 --> 00:41:33,091
to move forward with this
historic piece of legislation.

882
00:41:34,110 --> 00:41:35,885
And I would like to especially thank

883
00:41:35,886 --> 00:41:37,883
the brave men and women

884
00:41:37,884 --> 00:41:39,704
of the New York City police department,

885
00:41:40,242 --> 00:41:41,577
who thwarted this plot.

886
00:41:42,041 --> 00:41:43,436
And in a shocking development,

887
00:41:43,437 --> 00:41:45,466
federal agents arrested Benjamin Moss,

888
00:41:45,467 --> 00:41:48,039
founder of the powerful
Super PAC American way,

889
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:49,728
after connecting him to payments made

890
00:41:49,729 --> 00:41:51,426
to the senator's would-be assassin.

891
00:41:51,427 --> 00:41:53,085
Moss, a former president...

892
00:41:53,392 --> 00:41:54,416
My God.

893
00:41:55,306 --> 00:41:56,566
It was Ben Moss.

894
00:41:56,567 --> 00:41:58,458
The biggest kingmaker of 'em all.

895
00:41:59,344 --> 00:42:01,703
But Bracken only had him arrested.

896
00:42:01,704 --> 00:42:03,602
The way he was talking,
I half expected the guy

897
00:42:03,603 --> 00:42:05,926
to die in a "plane crash"

898
00:42:05,927 --> 00:42:08,761
or some kind of mysterious...
"car accident."

899
00:42:08,762 --> 00:42:09,404
No.

900
00:42:09,405 --> 00:42:11,162
This is so much better.

901
00:42:11,557 --> 00:42:13,498
Now Bracken's a folk hero.

902
00:42:14,048 --> 00:42:15,181
The rare politician

903
00:42:15,182 --> 00:42:17,487
willing to stand up to special interests

904
00:42:17,488 --> 00:42:20,798
even if it costs him his life.

905
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:22,591
You're right. That's a better story.

906
00:42:23,911 --> 00:42:24,432
The kind of story

907
00:42:24,433 --> 00:42:26,899
that could make a guy president.

908
00:42:27,373 --> 00:42:28,420
He'll slip up eventually,

909
00:42:28,445 --> 00:42:38,445
