Quotes 

• Javier Esposito : Victim's name is Sarah Cutler. Looks like she was killed last night and stuffed into a closet on set.

  Kate Beckett : Was she a part of the production?

  Javier Esposito : Yeah.

  Richard Castle : Let me guess, the diva actress that everyone hated?

  Javier Esposito : Actually, Castle, she was a writer.

  Richard Castle : A writer? Why would anyone want to kill a writer?

  Kate Beckett : Oh, so many reasons.

• Kate Beckett : When Lance came here, Sarah told him that someone wasn't who she thought they were. Who do you think that was?

  Richard Castle : How about the woman who makes my mother look like a saint?

  Kate Beckett : Yeah, but Sarah already cut Gloria out of her life. Maybe... maybe it was her cheating husband.

  Richard Castle : Except Lance met with Sarah after Mandy Bronson. By the time Mandy showed up, Sarah had already decided what she wanted to do with her marriage.

  Kate Beckett : Yeah, but even if Sarah decided that she was gonna get back together with Vince, it doesn't mean that she didn't have doubts.

  Richard Castle : No. No, you're right. Except he has an alibi. Everyone has an alibi.

  Kate Beckett : Yeah, well, somebody out there doesn't, and we are gonna find them.

  Richard Castle : [looking at his watch]  Ah, maybe we should sleep on it.

  [Beckett gives him a look] 

  Richard Castle : Separately!

  [reproachfully] 

  Richard Castle : Katherine Beckett, I never...

• Richard Castle : [Martha has unexpectedly shown up on the "Temptation Lane" set]  What are you doing here?

  Martha Rodgers : Grieving.

  Richard Castle : You didn't even know the victim.

  Martha Rodgers : Darling, a loss for a show like this is a loss for anyone who was ever part of its history. And...

  [whispering] 

  Martha Rodgers : I think I can be of help here. I think I could be your inside source. I can get the scoop on what's really going on here.

  [notices someone in the background] 

  Martha Rodgers : Oh, ho ho. And what better place to start than Lance Hastings.

  Kate Beckett : You know him?

  Martha Rodgers : He was my love interest thirty years ago, on screen. And off. After my character married his character, Joseph Fox, she was kidnapped, buried alive, trapped in a cave with bears, uh... kidnapped again, and held hostage in the sewers of Paris.

  Kate Beckett : How long were you on the show?

  Martha Rodgers : Three weeks.

• Vince Powers : I didn't kill my wife.

  Kate Beckett : Well, then, where were you the night that she was killed?

  Vince Powers : I was at the hotel. I went there immediately after we wrapped here.

  Kate Beckett : And can anyone vouch for that?

  [Vince hesitates and doesn't reply] 

  Richard Castle : Come on, Vince. Tell us you were alone. It'll make arresting you that much easier.

• Kate Beckett : Okay, so Gloria is in the clear. Uniforms showed her photo at the OTB, and a bartender there remembers seeing her at 11:15.

  Richard Castle : You know, I can see why she fell for Gloria's con. Sarah was motherless, childless, she was taking young writers under her wing. She was looking for family.

  Kate Beckett : Wow, Castle, that's a... refreshingly down-to-Earth theory.

  Richard Castle : Just trying to keep you on your toes.

• Richard Castle : [after interviewing a suspect]  I just don't see that girl swinging an ax, let alone leaving her house.

  Kate Beckett : What's the matter? Homicidal fan not soapy enough for you?

  Richard Castle : You know, when you say "soapy," I conjure up images...

  Kate Beckett : Castle, focus.

  Richard Castle : I am.

  Kate Beckett : On our suspect.

  Richard Castle : Oh.

• Vince Powers : Look, I knew if I told you that my marriage was in trouble, that I would be suspect number one.

  Kate Beckett : Maybe. But now that we know that you lied, it makes you look even worse.
