00:00There are two kinds of folks who sit around thinking about how to kill people, psychopaths and mystery writers.
00:05I'm the kind that pays better. Who am I?
00:07I'm Rick Castle.
00:08Castle.
00:09Castle.
00:10I really am ruggedly handsome, aren't I?
00:12Every writer needs inspiration, and I've found mine.
00:14Detective Kate Beckett. Beckett. Beckett. Nicky Heath.
00:17The character he's basing on you.
00:18And thanks to my friendship with the mayor, I get to be on her case.
00:21I'd be happy to let you spank me.
00:23And together we catch killers.
00:25Make a pretty good team, you know, like Starsky and Hutch.
00:27Turner and Hooch.
00:28You do remind me a little of Hoot.
00:36I have to laugh at her jokes, she's my boss.
00:38Did you have to stare at her boobs too?
00:40I wasn't, she had a stain.
00:41And you were trying to memorize the shape?
00:43What?
00:44No, I swear.
00:47If I'm lying, may God strike me down.
00:58Yeah, I want to, I just, I don't know.
01:04Yes, I...
01:08I can't tell him, he'll freak.
01:10He will.
01:14I gotta go.
01:15Who'll freak?
01:16What?
01:17Who's gonna freak?
01:18Oh, um, someone from school.
01:20You don't know them.
01:22Are you sure?
01:23Mm-hmm.
01:26But I thought I knew all your friends.
01:27Hey, I'm sorry, Dad, but I have a ton of school work.
01:29Oh, no, yeah.
01:35Hey, uh, you know you can tell me anything, right?
01:38Yep.
01:39Castle.
01:48A body falls out of the sky and somehow that's my fault?
01:53Hey, Castle.
01:54I hope we didn't take you away from something important.
01:57Or someone.
01:59Do you ever keep secrets from your dad?
02:01Sure.
02:02What kind?
02:04Do you really want to know?
02:05About your secrets?
02:06Absolutely.
02:07About my daughters.
02:09You know what?
02:10I'm sure it's nothing.
02:11Alexis would never keep anything serious from me.
02:13I'm the cool dad.
02:14Uh-huh.
02:17Sir, what are you doing here?
02:18Victim's Jack Buckley.
02:20Who's Jack Buckley?
02:21An assistant district attorney.
02:22One of the good guys.
02:24Buckley hated making deals.
02:25Love putting bad guys behind bars.
02:27He's the lawyer every cop wanted prosecuting their case.
02:31Well, looks like he didn't go down without a fight.
02:34Yeah, his jacket was torn.
02:36Found his briefcase up on the roof along with his left shoe.
02:40See if he was doing a full sweep.
02:42Well, Jack's a big boy.
02:43Whatever he did, it must be strong.
02:45Wait, I know what this is.
02:46Lawyer puts criminal in jail.
02:48Criminal feels wrong.
02:49Criminal kills lawyers.
02:50Keep fear.
02:53Any idea what he was doing up there?
02:54No.
02:55I talked to his secretary and she said Buckley left work around 8.
02:58Heading straight home, which is on the west side.
03:00And, get this, Buckley was a subway rider.
03:03He didn't own a car.
03:04Then what's he doing in a parking garage on the east side?
03:06That's a good question.
03:08Was Buckley married?
03:10Divorced.
03:11Ex-wife lives in California.
03:13Reach out to his wife.
03:14Let's start looking into his personal life and see what we can find.
03:17The mayor wants this solved quickly.
03:19Nobody kills a law enforcement officer and gets away with it.
03:25I just can't believe that he's dead.
03:27And you have no idea why he was in the garage?
03:30No.
03:31Here are the print-outs of Mr. Buckley's cases here on it.
03:34Thanks.
03:35I'm telling you this Cape Fear List is gonna be a gold mine of suspects.
03:38Check out this guy.
03:39Archibald Spinks.
03:41Five counts of attempted murder.
03:43One count of indecent exposure.
03:45I don't suppose he tried to kill him, but it's...
03:47Yeah, that wouldn't have worked.
03:49Had Mr. Buckley ever received any threats?
03:51Any prosecutions that went ugly?
03:53Well, he didn't think he was doing his job right if he wasn't being threatened,
03:56but nothing recently, no.
03:58He did seem to be upset the past few days.
04:00Any idea why?
04:01No.
04:02You know, there was that man the police brought in.
04:04What man?
04:05It was right after lunch on Monday.
04:06A cop brought in a tough-looking guy in handcuffs,
04:08took him right into Mr. Buckley's office and then waited outside.
04:11Yeah, we heard them yelling through the door and then the officer took him away.
04:14Does that kind of thing happen a lot?
04:16Never.
04:17Do you remember the officer's name?
04:18Yeah.
04:19Frank.
04:20Frank...
04:21Frank Curtis.
04:23Curtis doesn't remember why Buckley asked him to bring the guy in,
04:26but he does remember his name.
04:28John Knox.
04:29Dozens of priors, uniforms of bringing him in.
04:31I'm guessing this guy isn't exactly an altar boy.
04:33You think?
04:34Come on, let's go.
04:35You've got quite a record, Mr. Knox.
04:38Your parents must be proud.
04:39Yeah, they hang all my mug shots on the fridge.
04:42Can we cut to the chase?
04:44Two days ago you had an argument with Buckley in his office.
04:48Last night we found him dead, so you can understand our interest.
04:51Sure, but you're wasting your time. I didn't kill the guy.
04:54Really?
04:55Because it says here that you have quite a history of trying to kill people.
04:59Three in the last two years, or am I missing any?
05:02I was never convicted of anything.
05:04That's not exactly a denial.
05:06Do you work out?
05:08You know, bench press, deadlift.
05:11It must take a lot of upper body strength to throw a guy off a roof.
05:14Who is this guy?
05:16What did you and Buckley fight about?
05:18Look, he had it out for me because he put me on trial for an assault I didn't commit, and he lost.
05:24And rather than being a man about it, he decided to rattle my cage to show me who was the alpha male.
05:30So yeah, it was annoying and childish, but not something you kill a guy over.
05:34Especially a DA.
05:36Now, I may be a criminal, but I'm not stupid.
05:40Do you have an alibi for Buckley's murder?
05:43I don't know. What time was he killed?
05:459.30 p.m.
05:46I was at an AA meeting.
05:48Anonymous.
05:49That's cute.
05:50You don't believe me?
05:52Hmm.
05:53Well, then maybe you'll believe my sponsor.
05:56Reverend Daniel Miller.
05:59Didn't you say Reverend?
06:02So where are we with Knox?
06:05Uh, alibi looks solid.
06:07Castle and Beckett are interviewing the good Reverend right now.
06:09What about forensics?
06:10Looks like a bust.
06:11But I did find something interesting when I checked into Buckley's Metro Club.
06:14His card only made two swipes a day for the whole month.
06:186 a.m. at the subway by his apartment, 8 p.m. by his office.
06:21Buckley lived for the job, especially after the divorce.
06:24Probably trying to lose himself into work.
06:26On the day he was killed, Buckley did something unusual.
06:28He made an extra trip up to West 77th Street before he went to work.
06:31His secretary has no idea why.
06:33See if you can find out.
06:34Yo, Cap!
06:35Looks like somebody was following our boy Buckley.
06:37The doorman in his apartment said that a guy came in there two days ago demanding to talk to Buckley.
06:41Wouldn't take no for an answer.
06:43Doorman practically had to throw the guy out.
06:45Then, on the morning of Buckley's murder, the doorman swears that he saw the same guy hanging around outside the building.
06:50I snagged a photo off the video surveillance.
06:55Start looking through some mugshot books.
07:00Thank you, Reverend.
07:01Pleasure meeting you.
07:02Thanks.
07:03Is this for our case?
07:05Yeah, the guy who tried to hassle Buckley on his building.
07:08Wait a second.
07:09I know this guy.
07:11Yes.
07:12My keep fear file.
07:13Ow.
07:14Right here.
07:16Right here.
07:18His name is Norman Jessup.
07:21Buckley got him four years ago in a bank robbery where a guard got shot.
07:25See, I told you this file would solve this case.
07:28It says here he got out two weeks ago when his conviction was overturned by the appellate court on technicality.
07:33That sounds like a reason for Jessup to celebrate, not to kill Buckley.
07:37Yeah, except Buckley already filed an intent to retry.
07:40Jessup was looking at another two years in jail.
07:43Buckley won.
07:44Well, that might have made Jessup a little mad.
07:46All right, none of itself.
07:47Come out, come out, wherever you are.
07:50Really?
07:51That's your De Niro?
07:52Get a current address and a list of known associates.
07:54I'd like to hear what Jessup has to say.
07:58Wait, wait.
07:59You got it all wrong.
08:01Hey!
08:02Come on, police.
08:03Freak it out.
08:04Get outside.
08:05You thought you were going to do something?
08:06Oh!
08:07Breaking up a bar fight is a sure way to get hit.
08:08Don't worry.
08:09It'll be over in a minute.
08:10Oh!
08:11You know, I was in a bar fight once.
08:12Really?
08:13Who won?
08:14Oh.
08:15Ah!
08:16Let me guess.
08:17Not you.
08:18Ah!
08:19Oh!
08:20You want to fight Mr. Jessup?
08:22You can fight a murder charge.
08:24Hey, I'm sorry, man.
08:25I didn't mean to embarrass you in front of your girlfriend there.
08:27I am not his girlfriend.
08:28I am a homicide detective.
08:29And you should be taking this a little bit more seriously.
08:30Hey, that guy in that bar, he started this whole thing, okay?
08:31He thought I was hitting on his girlfriend and I was not hitting on his girlfriend.
08:33It was just a big misunderstanding.
08:34Right.
08:35Just like the bank robbery.
08:36Exactly.
08:37I had no idea my buddies were going to rob that bank.
08:38No idea at all.
08:39They said the car broke down and they needed a ride.
08:40And I gave them a ride.
08:41And that argument didn't sway Buckley?
08:42Can you believe it?
08:43He told my lawyer that the guard got shot.
08:44And therefore, in the eyes of the law, I was just as responsible.
08:45I was just as responsible.
08:46I was just as responsible.
08:47I was just as responsible.
08:48I was just as responsible.
08:49I was just as responsible.
08:50I was just as responsible.
08:51I was just as responsible.
08:52I was just as responsible.
08:53I was not his girlfriend.
08:54I am a homicide detective.
08:55And you should be taking this a little bit more seriously.
08:56Hey, that guy in that bar, he started this whole thing, okay?
08:57He thought I was hitting on his girlfriend,
08:58I was just as responsible as the guy who shot him.
08:59That must have made you angry.
09:00How did you feel about the fact that Buckley was going to retry your case
09:01and try to make you serve the final two years of your sentence?
09:02Honestly, lady.
09:03I cried like a baby.
09:04Huh.
09:05Prison is not fun.
09:06Okay?
09:07I did not want to go back.
09:08I figured if I could just talk to Mr. Buckley,
09:09I could let him know where I'm coming from.
09:10Which is what you were doing at Buckley's building.
09:13Whoa, whoa.
09:14I followed the man around.
09:15I was just as responsible as the guy who shot him.
09:16I was just as responsible as the guy who shot him.
09:17That must have made you angry.
09:18How did you feel about the fact that Buckley was going to retry your case
09:19I did not want to go back.
09:20I figured if I could just talk to Mr. Buckley,
09:21I could let him know where I'm coming from.
09:23Which is what you were doing at Buckley's building.
09:26Whoa, whoa.
09:27I followed the man around for a few days, okay?
09:29Just so I could get my courage up to talk to him.
09:31You were stalking Buckley?
09:33Stalking is a pretty damn ugly word.
09:35That's not you stalking, okay?
09:36I was just trying to feel the guy out, you know what I mean?
09:38Trying to convince him, you know?
09:39In case you guys haven't noticed, I'm somewhat of a wordsmith, you know?
09:42A real master of a, you know, of a...
09:46Words.
09:48Where were you between 9 and 10 last night?
09:50I was sitting in the bar you guys just dragged me out of.
09:52Okay.
09:53Well, we're going to check into your alibi.
09:55In the meantime, you're going back into holding until we can process you for assault.
09:58Oh, oh, come on!
10:00I said I was sorry!
10:01Wait, Buckley's mystery trip.
10:03Were you following Buckley uptown yesterday morning?
10:06Yeah, yeah, I was.
10:07Where did he go?
10:09He met some Asian dude outside this real fancy apartment building.
10:12Then they started to argue with each other.
10:15You think maybe that's the guy who killed him?
10:17Would you recognize the building if you saw it again?
10:19Oh, yeah.
10:20I'd get around.
10:21Road trip.
10:27Hey, you guys mind if I take these things off?
10:30I'm starting to feel like a stereotype riding around in the back of a police car wearing them.
10:33Sure.
10:34Do you want my key?
10:35Nah, you got it.
10:36Thanks.
10:37How did you do that?
10:38I've always been good with locks.
10:39When I was in the joint, I was thinking, how can I take this and make it more productive?
10:51You know?
10:52So I've been applying to locksmith schools, but they don't let me in on account that I'm a felon.
10:56Do you believe that?
10:57A felon who wants to be a locksmith.
10:59What could possibly go wrong there?
11:01You don't have to be mean about it.
11:02Yeah, wow.
11:03If you want to be a locksmith, you gotta listen.
11:04Left over right.
11:05Right over left.
11:06I think I made it tighter.
11:07Jessup, do you see the building?
11:08Uh, that's a negative.
11:09Now bring it around.
11:10Beckett.
11:11Oh, hey.
11:12Alexis.
11:13Uh, are you looking for your dad?
11:14To me.
11:15Okay, what's up?
11:16Yeah, yeah.
11:17Yeah, we can meet at Sutton's around 730.
11:18Is that okay?
11:19All right.
11:20I'll see you then.
11:21Was that Alexis calling you?
11:22Why?
11:23She needed my advice.
11:24About what?
11:25I don't know.
11:26It's probably no big deal.
11:27It's probably no big deal.
11:28Uh, well.
11:29Mm-hmm.
11:30I was a kid.
11:31Yeah.
11:32I was a kid.
11:33I was a kid.
11:34I was a kid.
11:35Yeah.
11:36I was a kid.
11:37I was a kid.
11:38I was a kid.
11:39I was a kid.
11:41I was a kid.
11:43I was a kid.
11:44I was a kid.
11:45When you kept secrets from your father, was it not a big deal?
11:50You know, I'm not even gonna ask.
11:54That's the building on the right-hand side, right there.
11:57Okay.
11:58Let's go get him.
11:59Not you. Us.
12:01Apartment 801? Okay. Thanks.
12:04So it turns out that the building's only Asian tenant is Paul Cho,
12:08who just happens to be Buckley's ex-brother-in-law.
12:11Oh. Well, maybe it's not Cape Fear, then.
12:14Maybe it's family feud.
12:16Maybe Buckley's bitter divorce caused enough hard feelings that things turned violent.
12:25I don't understand. I haven't seen Jack in months.
12:28Not since he divorced my sister.
12:30Really?
12:31Because I have an eyewitness who saw the two of you arguing yesterday morning.
12:36So that means you're lying to me.
12:38She hates being lied to.
12:40I don't know what you're talking about.
12:42Great. Let's go down to the precinct. I'll arrange a perp walk and you can put on a show for the cameras.
12:47Love a good perp walk.
12:48Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait.
12:51The night before last, I was attacked by a man in a ski mask.
12:58He warned me to tell Buckley to back off Danton or he would ruin me.
13:02Who's Danton?
13:03I don't know. But Jack definitely knew him.
13:06Said he wasn't gonna let him get away with this.
13:08That's why we were fighting. I told Jack to listen for once in his life.
13:12He had to protect me.
13:14From what?
13:16That's none of your business.
13:18Perp walk it is.
13:19All right, all right.
13:21I have a slight fondness for girls.
13:29Young girls?
13:32Young girls?
13:35Fat girls?
13:40School girls?
13:43Call girls.
13:46Who else knows about this fondness?
13:48Just the girls.
13:49Actually, the girls and their pimp.
13:53Whose name is probably Danton.
13:56Okay, fine.
13:57But I wasn't really lying.
13:59I've actually never met Danton.
14:01I got the phone number for the agency from a friend.
14:04I call it and they send over a girl.
14:08So, Buckley is investigating Danton's call girl ring.
14:13When Danton discovers that Buckley's brother-in-law is a client,
14:15he sends a message.
14:16Back off or your family gets hurt.
14:18And then when Buckley doesn't back down,
14:20Danton kills him.
14:22So how do we find Danton?
14:24We talk to one of the call girls.
14:29Call that number and tell him to bring one of his girls over.
14:32And tell her to wear something sexy.
14:36No reason we can't enjoy this interview.
14:38Hey, Paul.
14:39Couldn't wait to see me, huh?
14:40Actually, I'm the one who asked for the date.
14:54Isn't that the girl from Buckley's office?
14:58Did she look like that before?
15:00So how exactly does a call girl end up working for Jack Buckley?
15:11Super D.A.?
15:12Am I under arrest?
15:13You will be if you don't answer the question.
15:17Jack was a client.
15:20I'm sorry, Scarlett.
15:21I don't believe that.
15:22I started seeing him about a year ago.
15:25He hadn't been with anyone since his divorce.
15:28He's just lonely, you know?
15:32We'd spend most of his dates talking.
15:36He'd take me to fancy restaurants.
15:38Even though I told him he didn't have to.
15:41But I think he wanted to make it feel as normal as possible.
15:46Then one night, he saw a law book in my bag.
15:51I told him I was only working as an escort
15:54to pay my way through law school.
15:56A few months later, he said he had an internship opening up in his office.
16:03Would I be interested?
16:06He wanted to help you escape the life?
16:09Who's Denton?
16:11I don't know.
16:13Don't lie to us, Scarlett.
16:14I'm not.
16:15I know he runs the business, but I've never met him.
16:20It's not like I'm a street walker and he's in a fedora and a long fur coat.
16:26He's organized the entire operation to protect his identity.
16:30The girls are independent contractors.
16:33The clients are all given numbers so we don't know their last names.
16:37They pay the business by credit card.
16:40And our fees get deposited directly into our bank accounts.
16:45Creating the perfect firewall between the girls and the management.
16:47So then when we arrest you, you can't give up Denton.
16:51Because I don't know who he is.
16:54Can't believe Jack Buckley was seeing prostitutes.
16:56Yeah, well, he worked 14 hours a day, didn't have a social life.
17:06Maybe he just wanted a little easy company.
17:09Well, the math just doesn't add up though.
17:11Buckley was warned to back off Denton.
17:14Why would Buckley be investigating a call girl service he was using?
17:17Maybe Denton tried to blackmail Buckley and it backfired.
17:20So then Denton tried to scare Buckley by threatening his brother-in-law.
17:25And then when that didn't work, Denton killed Buckley.
17:28Alright, let's find out everything we can about this Denton character.
17:30Have Ryan and Esposito reach out to Vice in the morning.
17:32Yes, sir.
17:34Castle, I need you to sign these charges against Jessup so I can send them downtown.
17:42What?
17:45No, don't tell me you've got a soft spot for this guy.
17:47He's a wordsmith.
17:50Okay, fine.
17:53Hi, it's Beckett.
17:55Charges are being dropped against Jessup.
17:57Process them out.
17:58Alright, thank you.
18:00I hope the two of you are very happy together.
18:06Are you okay?
18:08No, I broke a heel.
18:11Let me guess.
18:12They were your favorite pair.
18:14Passed through your family for generations.
18:17My great-great-grandmother wore them over on the Mayflower.
18:20I knew it.
18:23So, what's a nice girl like you?
18:26Really?
18:28That's your line?
18:29I'm old-fashioned.
18:32I came to New York in this ancient blue beetle.
18:36The floor was so rusted it literally sagged in the middle.
18:39But I can still remember coming over the bridge and seeing the city right there in front of me.
18:47I thought everything was gonna be perfect.
18:50Something tells me this story takes a turn for the worse.
18:52The first night, somebody broke into my car and stole all my stuff.
18:59Then, the college friend I was gonna stay with told me her boyfriend was moving in.
19:05I had to find another place.
19:07Who?
19:08Somehow, I survived.
19:11Spent a year barely eating.
19:13Living in a closet.
19:15When a friend mentioned doing this, I thought...
19:18Couldn't be worse.
19:20And is it?
19:23Mostly no.
19:29Thanks for listening.
19:30Good night, Castle.
19:31You going to meet Alexis?
19:32Yeah.
19:33Can I come?
19:35No.
19:36But I want to.
19:38Why are you so worried, Castle?
19:39I thought you were the cool dad.
19:41I am.
19:44What's the secret?
19:46Oh!
19:48What's the secret?
19:50What's the secret?
19:52What's the secret?
19:54What's the secret?
19:55What's the secret?
19:57What's the secret?
19:58What's the secret?
19:59All in the breathing, dear.
20:01No, what's Alexis' secret that she'll tell Beckett about but not me?
20:04I don't know.
20:06There's some things a woman wants to talk to another woman about.
20:09The New York Times praised the depth of my female characters.
20:13I know.
20:14And I couldn't be prouder.
20:15But this is real life.
20:17And obviously, Alexis looks up to Beckett, and Beckett's smart and strong and independent.
20:21So are you.
20:22That's sweet.
20:24I'm on the wrong side of 40 for what Alexis is going through right now.
20:2840.
20:29Deflect all you want, kiddo.
20:30But I recognize the fear in your eyes.
20:32You're afraid Alexis has more Rick Castle in her than you thought.
20:37Hey, sweetie.
20:39How did you talk with Beckett go?
20:40Fine.
20:41She's really nice.
20:43Yeah, she is.
20:45You know, sweetheart, if you don't want to tell me what you talked about with Beckett, you don't have to.
20:48Okay.
20:49Thanks, Dad.
20:53What is the matter with you?
20:55Why didn't you just ask her?
20:56Because that would be prying.
20:58And cool dads don't do that.
21:00They go behind their daughter's back and they beg Beckett to tell them.
21:02You ever have any cases with Buckley?
21:03A few.
21:04Guy was winding a little tight if you ask me.
21:05Saw himself as a crusader for justice.
21:06Yo, where's Pizzito?
21:07Gil Mazzaro.
21:08What's up, man?
21:09Hey, Don.
21:10I saw you still looking at dirty pictures up in Vice.
21:11Yeah, tell your mama to send over some new ones, the ones I got are getting old.
21:12You know my partner, Ryan?
21:13Hey.
21:14Yeah.
21:15Honey Milk.
21:16Nice to see you.
21:17So, uh, I hear you're looking to talk about Danton.
21:20Yeah, you know him?
21:21Yeah, I arrested him five years ago.
21:23Real name is Dantonelli.
21:24Danton.
21:25Yeah.
21:26He's currently serving a seven year stretch in Greenhaven Correctional.
21:29Wait a minute, he's still in prison?
21:31And your boy Buckley put him there.
21:33Buckley put him there.
21:34He killed Bill Mazzara, you killed him.
21:35He killed him.
21:36I killed him.
21:37We killed him.
21:38I killed him.
21:39I killed him.
21:40Look, I killed him.
21:41I killed him.
21:42and your boy Buckley put him there.
21:43Buckley prosecuted Danton?
21:45Yeah, and he was all over us to make a rock-solid case.
21:48We gave Buckley enough to put the guy away for 20 years.
21:51Could Tinelli still be running the operation out of prison?
21:53Nah, these call-girl rings are like franchises.
21:57The business changes hands, but the name stays the same.
21:59So who's the new Danton?
22:01I wish I knew.
22:02Guy's like a ghost.
22:04Every time we think we're getting close, he disappears.
22:06Five warrants in the last year, and every time we show up,
22:09the place has been cleared out like you knew he would come.
22:11You call the prison, get in and bring Tinelli over here.
22:22Hey, you guys seem back at...
22:24She went with the captain to update the city hall on the case.
22:27She'll be here in a minute.
22:28Something wrong?
22:29No.
22:30Yes.
22:32I think my daughter might be keeping something from me.
22:35Maybe she got kicked out of school.
22:36What?
22:37She's doing drugs.
22:38Teen pregnancy is on the rise.
22:40Whoa.
22:41All right, you've met my daughter.
22:43You know that she is the closest thing to perfect as humanly possible.
22:45Castle, come on.
22:47You've been with us long enough to know that people are never who you think they are.
22:51Isn't it possible your perfect daughter isn't as perfect as you think?
22:54Is Danton here yet?
22:56Yeah.
22:57Interrogation room one.
22:58Wait, Danton?
22:59Come on, Castle.
23:00Keep up.
23:01We brought you in here to talk about Danton.
23:06Ancient history.
23:07It says here Buckley made a plea deal with you seven years instead of 20, but I heard Buckley
23:13doesn't make deals.
23:14What could I say?
23:15I got lucky.
23:16The only reason that Buckley would agree to a deal is because you brought him something
23:20big in return.
23:22So what was it?
23:23Why don't you ask him?
23:24Because he's dead.
23:25What?
23:26How?
23:27He was murdered two nights ago.
23:30We believe that the same person who took over your operations killed him.
23:36What's so funny?
23:37What?
23:38You see, that would make it a suicide.
23:40Suicide?
23:41Wait a minute.
23:42You're saying that Jack Buckley was the new Danton?
23:46Buckley made me a deal.
23:48I provide him with my client list, my girls.
23:51He knocks 13 years off my sentence.
23:53It was a no-brainer.
23:54Our DA was a pimp.
23:56Jack Buckley was dead.
24:01That's why all VICE's warrants failed.
24:03They had to go through the DA's office and Buckley saw them coming.
24:05He was in the perfect position to protect his operation.
24:08But why would a respected prosecutor become a pimp?
24:11The outfits?
24:13It was the money.
24:15Buckley's ex-wife took him to the cleaners.
24:16Between alimony and his own bills, Buckley was beyond broke.
24:20You know, I'm betting it was more than just the money.
24:22Everybody's talking about how great Jack Buckley was.
24:25That's how he was the law.
24:26You start thinking like that, sometimes you can start thinking maybe you are above the law.
24:31But you can get away with anything.
24:33Sir, how did the mayor handle the news?
24:36Ooh, you don't want to know.
24:38Okay, this doesn't make any sense.
24:40If Buckley was the new Danton, then why would the masked man tell Buckley to back off of Danton?
24:45Buckley wouldn't threaten himself.
24:50Unless Buckley wasn't the boss anymore.
24:51A hostile takeover.
24:52Of course.
24:53We know Danton was just a business name, so back off of Danton was the new boss telling the old boss,
25:00don't resist the takeover or I'll start ruining reputations.
25:02Makes sense in theory, but how do you prove it?
25:04We talked to the call girl.
25:08There is no way that Scarlett didn't know that Buckley was in charge.
25:15No, seriously.
25:16What did Alexis tell you last night?
25:18I promised I wouldn't say.
25:20Well, at least tell me if it was bad.
25:22And put you out of your misery?
25:24We're looking for Scarlett.
25:25She's packing her things.
25:26We can't have call girls working here.
25:27No, only pimps.
25:28Detective.
25:29Could you give us a moment, please?
25:30Scarlett, you lied to us.
25:45Buckley was running the call girl ring and there's no way that you didn't know.
25:49Please.
25:50I had to lie.
25:51He'd kill me if he thought I told you anything.
25:53Who'd kill you?
25:54A new Danton?
25:55Someone took over Buckley's business.
25:57Who was it?
25:58Answer me.
26:00He used to work for Buckley.
26:02He made sure no one hurt the girls and everyone paid.
26:05What was his name?
26:06I can't tell you that.
26:07Scarlett, I'm done playing.
26:08You've done nothing but lie to us.
26:10Don't think that I'm not going to send you away for obstruction of justice and anything else that I can think of.
26:14He'll kill me.
26:15We won't let that happen.
26:17Detective Becca can help you, but you have to help us first.
26:20And then what happens to me?
26:22You think I'm going to be a lawyer now?
26:24Jack was going to write me a letter of recommendation.
26:26Pull some strings to get me a job.
26:28Who's going to help me now?
26:29Honestly?
26:30No one.
26:31You're going to have to do it by yourself, Scarlett.
26:34And I've got a feeling you can tell us who the new boss is.
26:38And Detective Becca will make sure no one knows it was you who talked to us.
26:43You promise?
26:47Yes.
26:52His name is John Knox.
26:57Knox?
26:58But that's...
26:59The guy that Buckley dragged in here in handcuffs.
27:01How does a prosecutor get into business with a criminal?
27:06Well, it's hard out there for a pimp.
27:09There's also a DA.
27:10Ooh, that'd be a good character for a novel.
27:12A star prosecutor who's always excelled at anything he's ever done.
27:16He couldn't possibly imagine that being a pimp would be a bigger job than he could handle by himself.
27:20But one day, he gets a call.
27:22One of his girls has been knocked around by a client.
27:25He realizes there's nothing he can do about it.
27:27He's a very public figure.
27:28Mm-hmm.
27:29So, a white-collar prosecutor decides to hire a blue-collared enforcer.
27:33Can't exactly take out a net on Craigslist for that, but fortunately enough, he has a big stack of qualified candidates sitting right on his desk.
27:41Which is where he found John Knox, a criminal who mostly managed to stay out of prison.
27:45Which makes him a smart criminal.
27:47Yeah.
27:48Buckley offers him a deal.
27:49Come work for me, I'll throw your case.
27:51And Knox does.
27:52Mm-hmm.
27:53For a while, everyone's happy.
27:54But then Knox decides he's not happy being number two anymore.
27:57He takes Buckley's client list, tells Buckley to take a hike.
28:00Knowing that Buckley can't do anything about it without risking exposure.
28:03Mm-hmm.
28:04But Buckley's never backed down from a fight in his life.
28:06He gets the cops to drag Knox down to his office to remind him who's boss.
28:09But Knox took it up a notch, sending a warning shot across Buckley's bow by threatening his brother-in-law.
28:14And when Buckley wouldn't back down, Knox threw him off the roof of a parking garage.
28:18Geez, if only we had some proof.
28:20Who needs proof?
28:21What a great story.
28:23Of course, Knox has an alibi.
28:26You know, maybe you're right.
28:29Maybe Knox is smart.
28:30Maybe he sent someone else.
28:32Oh, I like the twist.
28:33The enforcer has an enforcer.
28:35But who?
28:37I'll talk to you guys later, okay?
28:41Hi.
28:42Remember us?
28:43I definitely remember you.
28:45We need to ask you a few questions.
28:47I already answered you questions.
28:49Maybe you didn't see the badge.
28:51Oh.
28:52I saw it.
28:53You ladies ready?
28:54Excellent.
28:55You two have a nice evening.
28:58Aren't you gonna stop him?
29:00I can't.
29:01Unless we arrest him, the law says that he doesn't have to talk to us.
29:04And he knows that.
29:05So arrest him.
29:06On what grounds?
29:07We promised Scarlett that we'd keep her out of it.
29:09So unless we get some evidence, he's getting away with this.
29:36Scarlett?
29:37You hurt?
29:38I didn't know where else to go.
29:43Come sit down.
29:53You should go to a hospital.
29:55Just a few bruises.
29:56I'll be fine.
29:58How did you find me?
30:00A client in the publishing business gave me your address.
30:05Dinner for one?
30:07Yeah.
30:08My family is at the theater.
30:10Good.
30:11I wouldn't want anyone else to see me like this.
30:17Did Knox do this to you?
30:20It doesn't matter.
30:21Of course it does.
30:22You think that by protecting him, you're saving yourself somehow?
30:25Because you're not.
30:27And if you don't get out from under his thumb now, you never will.
30:31Why are you so nice to me?
30:36How do you know I'm not this nice to all the beautiful women I find on my doorstep?
30:41You really think I'm beautiful?
30:44Look, maybe we should...
30:50I'm sorry.
30:51No.
30:52I shouldn't have done that.
30:53Maybe it's...
30:54You're hurt and you're scared.
30:59But you don't have to be that person with me.
31:04You're safe here.
31:11Knox killed Buckley.
31:12No.
31:13No.
31:14No, he has an alibi.
31:23A reverend.
31:25Knox made me take it.
31:28Reverend Daniel is a client.
31:30Knox is blackmailing him into saying they were together when Buckley was killed.
31:38I'm taking you to a hospital.
31:40No arguments.
31:41Okay.
31:45Hey.
31:46I'm thinking Knox killed Buckley.
31:49Knox has an alibi.
31:50Hmm.
31:51Does he?
31:52Reverend alibi in the flesh.
31:54Lots of flesh.
31:57Too much flesh.
31:59Where'd you get this?
32:00Scarlet Price.
32:01You saw her without me?
32:03Oh, well, yes.
32:04She's a person of interest in our investigation.
32:06Our murder investigation.
32:08No, I know.
32:09Where'd you see her?
32:10Uh, my apartment.
32:12What?
32:13When I came home last night, she was in my hall and somebody had beaten her up.
32:16And you didn't think to call me?
32:17Well, I took her to the hospital and then I kind of got her away from me and then I came here.
32:20You know how to surprise you?
32:21Like, like I do.
32:24You're not done talking about this.
32:27Esposito?
32:28Yeah.
32:29I have surveillance pulling Knox.
32:30I'm on it.
32:31Whoa.
32:32You had Knox under surveillance?
32:33You didn't tell him?
32:34At least I didn't go out on a date with him.
32:36It wasn't a date.
32:37Really?
32:38Trouble.
32:39Knox's apartment is empty.
32:40It must have slipped out during the night.
32:42Scarlet.
32:43I left her at St. Vincent's Hospital.
32:47Yes, hello.
32:48I dropped a young woman off there last night.
32:49Her name is Scarlet Price.
32:50She'd been beaten up.
32:51Take her right away, please.
32:53What?
32:54When?
32:56A man checked her out right after I left.
32:58Knox.
32:59Get a unit out to Scarlet's apartment and get an APB out on both of them.
33:06Hello?
33:07He's got me.
33:08Scarlet, hang on, hang on.
33:10I think he's gonna kill me.
33:11Where are you?
33:12I don't know what...
33:13Hey, what are you doing in there?
33:15Scarlet?
33:17What do we do?
33:18We have to do something.
33:19Ryan, get the carrier on the phone.
33:21Let him know that I'm about a minute away from getting a trace warrant on the following number.
33:24212-555-0179.
33:28Got it.
33:30This is Detective Kate Beckett, badge number 41319.
33:34I need to talk to Judge Beale right away.
33:36Scarlet's phone traced to the east side of the building.
33:38Hotel manager said that a guy match at Knox's description checked into room 4F this morning.
33:43Castle, you're staying here.
33:45No, I'm not.
33:46Okay, but stay behind me.
33:49Okay, but stay behind me.
33:59Stop!
34:00No!
34:05Hurry!
34:06Over there.
34:07It's Knox.
34:08Scarlet.
34:09Hey.
34:10Hey.
34:11Hey, it's okay.
34:12I killed him.
34:13It's okay.
34:14You're okay.
34:15I killed Knox.
34:16He heard a noise outside, and when he turned to look, I grabbed his gun.
34:23He told me to give it back.
34:25It came after me.
34:26I told him to stop, but he wouldn't.
34:27Why wouldn't he stop?
34:28Why wouldn't he stop?
34:29Why wouldn't he stop?
34:31Why wouldn't he stop?
34:32Why wouldn't he stop?
34:34Why wouldn't he stop?
34:35You think she'll be okay?
34:36Well, given the circumstances, I don't think the D.A. will press charge me.
34:37You think she'll be okay?
34:38Well, given the circumstances, I don't think the D.A. will press charge me.
34:39No, I mean, do you think she'll be okay?
34:40I don't think the D.A. will press charges.
34:41No, I mean, do you think she'll be okay?
34:42Well, given the circumstances, I don't think the D.A. will press charges.
34:43No, I mean, do you think she'll be okay?
34:44I don't know.
34:45I don't know.
34:47Girls and the sexes, I don't know.
34:48Why wouldn't he stop?
34:49Why wouldn't he stop?
34:54You think she'll be okay?
34:58Well, given the circumstances, I don't think the D.A. will press charges.
35:07No, I mean, do you think she'll be okay?
35:09I don't know.
35:13Girls in the sex industry usually come from a history of childhood dysfunction. It's hard to escape that
35:20But it's possible, right?
35:23Yeah, come on, come on. Hold it right there!
35:26Cassie, a little help? Oh, yeah, Julian, it's fine. He's with me. You are out of control, man
35:32I got good news. I finally found a locksmith school that's willing to admit me. Really? Yeah
35:37All I need is a letter of recommendation from the police and I am in. Are you writing for me? No!
35:42What? Come on, have a heart. He's a criminal. If I write him a letter, I'll be responsible for him.
35:47I cannot watch you 24 hours a day. Wait a minute, what'd you say? I would be responsible for him. No, no, no, you can't watch him.
35:55When did you put the surveillance car on Knox? Right after we left the bar. And they followed him all night? Yeah, he got home around 2 a.m.
36:01Then how could he have beaten up Scarlett?
36:03You guys do know that the dead boat wasn't set on this lock when you guys kicked it in, right? What? See?
36:08If it would have been, this whole frame would have been destroyed. Locking the door? That's hostage taking 101.
36:17Unless Scarlett wasn't a hostage. She was in on it from the start. Buckley didn't set her up in his office out of the goodness of his heart.
36:25He needed somebody working there to man the call girl business. Not realizing that he was giving Scarlett full access to every facet of his organization.
36:32Knox didn't steal the client list. Scarlett gave it to him so that the two of them could go into business together.
36:37And when Buckley wouldn't walk away, Knox killed him. Never thinking we'd find out about the call girl ring.
36:41And then when we did, Scarlett realized that the only way to save herself was by giving up Knox by playing the ultimate victim.
36:46Making you believe that Knox beat her up so that we'd think that she killed him out of self-defense.
36:49And I fell for it. We all did. I did.
