"He was picked up which happens to be the same round that wound in our vic." "Just waiting on ballistics, unless he confesses first." "So where's his lawyer?" "Ooh, whoa, whoa." "He hasn't asked for one." "Well, i know a guy." "Oh, what's the matter, castle?" "Are you getting worried?" "Wor-Worried?" "I'll make you cry." "You want to bet or maybe double down?" "No, no, no, no, no, no, not money." "Humiliation." "Hmm." "Loser wears a dress to the precinct for a week." "Why stop there?" "Loser also shaves his head." "Or are you chicken?" "You're on, honey milk." " Honey milk." " Damn it." "For the record, mr." "Hinkle, you are admitting" "That you were dr." "Cosway's 1:00 appointment?" "I knew this would happen." "?" "First time i met her, i knhe'd leave me." "Why does this always happen?" "Why do people keep leaving me?" "She didn't leave you, mr." "Hinkle." "She was murdered." "Yeah, just like my first wife." "Your first wife was murdered?" "That's right." "I smothered her to death." "Yeah." "That's what she told me." "I murdered her with love." "That's why she left." "Just tell us about your last appointment with dr." "Cosway." "We were just starting to make progress." "You know the irony here?"

"You know, at least dr." "Cosway" "Didn't charge me for canceling last-Minute." "Why not?" "Oh, she said she was gonna have lunch with her husband," " So it was time well spent." " Thank you, mr." "Hinkle." " Thank you." " Oh, and by the way, it's a common mistake, but it's not ironic that dr." "Cosway is not here" "For you to lean on." "It's just simply tragic." "It would be ironic if her death made you feel better." "Castle." "Just--You can..." "What's with the super cop?" "I have no idea what you're talking about." "Okay, thank you." "I appreciate it." "Well, i'm down for $50." "You know that." "Uh-Huh." "Well..." "So what you got?" "I just got a ping on ashley's credit card." "A lunch charge at petit bistro, right next door to her office." "The hostess confirmed that ashley and jason were having lunch there on friday." "And the only reason she remembers it is because they were making kind of a scene." "He's our screamer." "They were arguing all the way back to the office." "He's the one she was getting ?" "Jason's alibi that he was at the game with his friend feel a little squishy to you?" "Like a wormy apple."

"Hey, stegner." "Just... admiring the great board work, beckett." "Care to share any insight?" "I really need to..." "Go file." "Uh-Huh." "I'd be more than happy to take that off your hands." "Son of a..." "Nobody move!" "What is this?" "Girl scout cookie orders." "Huh." "Girl scout cookie orders." "Yeah, i'm just helping out the troop." "Funny." "I didn't realize alexis was a girl scout." "Oh, i know." "She's got so many activities, i can barely keep track." " Freakin' great." " What happened?" " Ballistics screwed us." " Ballistics screwed us." "Our mugger's gun doesn't match the bullet taken from our vic." "What's going on?" "Betting on murder cases, guys?" "Really?" " Whoa." "What?" " That would be wrong." "I've been telling you, it's girl scout ord" "Girl scout cookies are sold in february." "You guys should be ashamed of yourselves." "Now get back to work." "Listen... i'm sorry."

"Don't tell me for one second" "You didn't have to get up during that lame halftime show" "And remember what section to go back to." "The only thing i remember is the fact that we were sitting there right behind the home bench." "Oh, okay..." " You ever have seats like that?" " Yeah, right." " So divorce isn't an option." "Divorce?" " Divorce?" " i'm going, too, bro." " i didn't want a divorce, okay, pal?" "!" "And i didn't kill my wife!" "So can we charge him?" "We still need evidence."

"I mean, even in the taxi back, He kept saying that" "How amazing it was that they met After all these years at serendipity." " how it was so serendipitous." " serendipitous." "How am i supposed to compete With that?" "Sorry." "Where are you now?" "Yes, i'm on the elevator Right..." "Now." "Where have you been?" "Apologizing for the male race." "We catch a break?" "No, but the boys did." "Another mugger?" "I don't know." "But they look Pretty hot on something." "What?" "What do you have?" "Why don't you go ahead And give him a little taste, bro?" "Turns out our vic had A rent-controlled apartment." "Stays in the family, It stays rent controlled." "$562 a month. 3-bedroom." "I'd kill for that."

"Lanie just found something In the forensic report." "Well, i hope it's better Than their son-in-law." "And you're sure it was them?" "Okay." "Thanks." "I don't even want to know." "Two bartenders and the manager" "Put frank's son-in-law eric And daughter christina uptown" "At their friend eddie's Birthday party at dublin house" "From 9:15 Till after midnight." "Dude, if i have to shave My head, it's going on you." " what are you doing here?" " what are you doing here?" "Lanie called us." " no, she called us." " yeah." "Actually, i called both of you." "I think your cases Might be connected." "Perlmuer was giving me the rundown On ryan and esposito's mugging case" "When a certain forensic detail Popped out at me." "Orthosilicic acid." "Ortho what now?" "It's the fancy term For saltwater compound." " that's not very specific." " true." "But we identified the diatoms In the sample as well," "Which makes it Extremely specific." "It narrows it down To a single body of water." "Oh, so our guy took a swim?" "Not quite." "It was only trace amounts." "But we found orthosilicic acid With the exact same diatoms" "On ashley cosway as well." "Both victims had contact With the same body of water?" " direct contact." " what are the odds?" "It'd be like finding the same Fingerprint on both bodies." "Do we know What body of water?" "No, i would need a sample To test it against." "Castle." "Could it be A small body of water?" "Sure, as long As it's saltwater." "Dr. Cosway's fish tank." "Check out nemo." "Clown fish Need saltwater to live." "Okay, but how did this get On both of our vics?" "Wouldn't they have had to Stick their hands in there or something?" "You see that salt encrustation Along the top?" "Yeah." "The pump just kicks it Into the air." "Yeah, anyone who spent time In that office" "Would have trace amounts of that tank-specific Saltwater compound on them." "So then frank had to Have been in ashley's office" "Sometime before He was murdered." "That's possible, but remember, Ashley was murdered first." "Then our perp was in there." "That's where he got The compound on him." "Then he transferred it to frank When he took his watch and wallet." "Which means both of our vics Were killed by the same person." "I thought Dad was mugged." "Yeah, like--like randomly." "We don't believe It was random anymore." "Mr. Cosway's wife ashley Was killed earlier that night." "We think the same person Killed your father" "And then tried to stagit As if there were two isolated incidents." "We're trying to find A connection between them." "This is mrs." "Cosway." "And this is mr." "Anderson." "Do either of them Look familiar?" "No." "Not at all." "I'm sorry." "Mrs. Cosway Was a therapist." "Did your father Ever go to therapy?" "Dad?" "No." "No disrespect to your wife," "But he didn't really Go for that kind of stuff." "Well, this is a list Of mrs." "Cosway's patients." "Would you mind Taking a look at the names," "See if you recognize Any of them?" "I-i don't think so." " no." " no, i..." "Take your time." "Do you really think There's a connection here?" "I mean, we--we live in Different parts of the city," "You know, We work at different places," "We're..." "Go ahead." "You could say it." "We're black and you're white." "No, i--no, i'm just saying, We're different." "That's all i was saying." "They may have inadvertently Witnessed something" "Or been privy to some information That someone very powerful" "Wanted to keep under wraps." "There are any number Of possibilities." " we just want-- - grovner." "What was that?" "Uh, this name--grovner." "It--it kinda rings a bell." "Do you remember About five years back," "Some kid's dad Shoved him for some reason?" "Y-yeah." "School security Got involved." "I think his name was grovner." "We'll get a warrant For his patient file." "If there's a connection, We'll find it." "So..." "The principal at i.s. 1-6-1 Said that grovner assaulted your vic" "After mr." "Anderson reported him On suspicion of child abuse." "Which is why grovner and his wife Went to couples' counseling." "Apparently it didn't go Too well," "Because they ended up filing For divorce, and get this" "Mrs. Cosway testified Against grovner in court." "So grovner had reason To go after both our victims." "Yeah, went away for five years For domestic abuse" "Says right here He was released last month." "What are the odds, huh," "Two people from opposite lives Being connected by one jackhole?"
