[Alexis is planning to meet her secret admirer]
Martha Rodgers : Richard, darling, she's right. You are being utterly irrational. It's like when I was doing, uh, "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" and I thought my understudy was trying to poison me.
Richard Castle : Oh, yeah. The daily blood tests I paid for. Wait, she did poison you. The Swiss chocolate she gave you was a laxative.
Martha Rodgers : Eh, well. It added a certain urgency to my performance. But, the point is, you indulged my paranoia. So therefore, I am going to be in the park, five o'clock, at a discreet distance to make sure that Alexis' secret admirer is not an ax murderer.
Richard Castle : Thank you.
