• Trapper John : [answers phone]  Where's my bus?

  Kate Beckett : The bus is on its way. It'll be there in twenty minutes.

  Trapper John : The hostages will be dead in two.

  Kate Beckett : No, nobody needs to die. Okay? It's coming. It's just, it's stuck in traffic.

  Trapper John : We have *rules*, Kate. I said I wouldn't kill anyone. You said you'd get me a bus. I lived up to my end of the deal.

  Kate Beckett : And I'm gonna live up to mine in just...

  Trapper John : I warned you not to jerk me around. Now, I was clear about the consequences. Do I have to prove how serious I am? Is that it?

  Kate Beckett : Okay, I-I think we both just need to take a deep breath and we can talk about...

  Trapper John : I'm done talking!

  [Trapper turns and fires his gun towards Castle] 

  Kate Beckett : What was that?

  [cut to a desktop computer smokes from the gunshot] 

  Trapper John : A warning shot, Kate. The next one's for the kill!

  [Trapper makes his way towards Castle] 

  Martha Rodgers : Don't you touch him, you son-of-a-bitch!

  Richard Castle : No, no! Davenport, hold her back! I got this.

  Trapper John : [cocking his gun]  I'm gonna make pretty red stains out of your boyfriend, Kate. I got my gun to his throat, and I'm gonna paint a Jackson Pollock with his insides!

  Captain Peterson : You need to calm him down.

  Kate Beckett : Listen to me, jackass, I do not control traffic. So you're gonna have to give me 20 minutes.

  Trapper John : Now you've got one minute, Kate.

  Kate Beckett : No! I've got 20. Do you hear me? Twenty. Because if you pull that trigger, I will walk through those doors and personally put a bullet through you skull.

  Trapper John : [after a tense moment, he lowers his gun]  Okay, Kate, you got 20 more minutes.

  Captain Peterson : Well, that's one way to negotiate.

• Kate Beckett : Castle!

  Richard Castle : Beckett?

  [seeing the hostages are all okay] 

  Richard Castle : They're here!

  Richard Castle : I told you. Huh?

  Kate Beckett : Oh, my God!

  [knells down in front of a bound Castle] 

  Kate Beckett : Here we go. Ready?

  [Beckett cuts Castle's zip tie restraint, and they share a tender look] 

  Kate Beckett : Okay. How are you?

  Martha Rodgers : He's not the only one here, you know.

• [Beckett marvels at the banquet that Martha's prepared] 

  Martha Rodgers : Facing death demands celebrating life. Tonight, we feast!

• Kate Beckett : Sir, what happened to the robbers?

  Captain Peterson : They're dead. They blew themselves up.

  Kate Beckett : What?

  Captain Peterson : Apparently, the C-4 was part of the exit strategy. They blasted a hole straight through the bottom of the vault and opened the ceiling on an abandoned subway station below. Smart plan, if they didn't screw it up. They must've triggered the explosion before they took cover and they killed themselves.

  Martha Rodgers : Oh!

  Richard Castle : It's not possible. C-4, it's a very stable explosive. It wouldn't go off accidentally, and these guys were not dime-store bandits. They were trained. They were military precision. They-They wouldn't set off an explosion prematurely.

  Captain Peterson : Really? I got an assortment of body parts that tells me they did.

• [first lines] 

  Martha Rodgers : This is *outrageous*, sir! You are nothing but a well-dressed loan shark!

  Mr. Davenport : Ms. Rodgers, I assure you , this is a very competitive interest rate, considering your financial history. However, if you son co-signs...

  Richard Castle : Yes.

  Martha Rodgers : No, no, no, no. This is my loan, not his. To pay for repairs to *my* acting studio, not his.
