Quotes
-
Martha Rodgers : Really? An insurance investigator?
Richard Castle : A sexy insurance investigator. I think she'd make a great character for my next book.
Martha Rodgers : Well, you seem rather taken with her.
Richard Castle : I find her... impressive.
Martha Rodgers : What's she like?
[cut to Beckett with Dr. Burke]
Kate Beckett : She's an uncooperative, cocky, stubborn know-it-all.
Dr. Carter Burke : But she is good at her job?
Kate Beckett : Yeah, well, Castle seems to think so.
Dr. Carter Burke : And that bothers you?
Kate Beckett : Yes, of course it bothers me.
Dr. Carter Burke : Why?
Kate Beckett : Because he's supposed to be...
[pauses, sighs and sits down]
Dr. Carter Burke : Be what?
Kate Beckett : My partner. I mean, he's supposed to be on my team. He's not supposed to be all smitten.

Richard Castle : "Smitten"? Mother, I think "intrigued" is a better word.
Martha Rodgers : So, what's our next move?
Richard Castle : Move?
Martha Rodgers : Oh, Richard, honestly. Beckett has made it plain that she's not available, for now. And now you've met this woman, she's smart, she's incredibly attractive, you're intrigued by her. Why not ask her out?
Richard Castle : It's complicated.
[cut back to Dr. Burke's office]
Dr. Carter Burke : Why is it complicated?
Kate Beckett : You know why it's complicated.
Dr. Carter Burke : Only what you've told me... Kate... what are you really scared of? That he won't wait for you? Or that he will?
