Seamus Dever: Kevin Ryan

Quotes 

• Javier Esposito : The Department of Corrections authorized her furlough?

  Kate Beckett : Yeah. Right now, Sonia is our best and only path to Hammerhead's real identity.

  Kevin Ryan : So what's the plan?

  Kate Beckett : You and Espo are gonna head over to the...

  [notices Espo is uncomfortable] 

  Kate Beckett : Excuse me, what's going on? What are you not telling me?

  Javier Esposito : [laughing]  So... uh, funny story. Really. Uh, it's, uh... Sonia and I, we, uh, were kind of involved.

  Richard Castle : Involved, like dating?

  Javier Esposito : Dating? No. Come on, not dating. We were- we were more like engaged.

• Kevin Ryan : Engaged? You were... Wait a second. All these years, you never told me that?

  Javier Esposito : You never asked.

  Kevin Ryan : You're a cop. How could you get involved with a criminal?

  Richard Castle : Well, technically, they were in the same line of work, so, really, it's a workplace romance.

  Javier Esposito : Thank you. I didn't know she was a crook at first, okay? I- I met her at a club. She seemed normal. And we just... We just clicked. And it's probably why she hid who she really was from me.

  Kate Beckett : A- And when did you find out the truth?

  Javier Esposito : After it was too late! We were engaged. And then she started acting strange. Disappearing at odd hours. And then she couldn't look me in the eye. And then news of that gold-coin heist broke and I... I don't know. I knew. And I was the one who arrested her.

  Richard Castle : So, did you ask for the ring back or did you let her keep that so she could trade it for cigarettes in the prison yard?

  [seeing Espo's expression] 

  Richard Castle : That's... Don't answer that.

• Javier Esposito : Why are you benching me?

  [sees Beckett's expression] 

  Javier Esposito : Okay, I get it. But there's no need. Any feelings I had for her died the moment I slapped those cuffs on. Trust me, I am over her completely.

  [Sonia enters, dressed in a sexy outfit, and Espo is dumbstruck] 

  Sonia Ruiz : Javier?

  [she's led into another room by a patrol officer] 

  Kevin Ryan : You sure you're over her?

  Richard Castle : You might wanna tell your mouth.

  [closes Esposito's lips] 

  Richard Castle : Close that up.

• Kevin Ryan : I still can't believe Javi was engaged to that woman.

  Richard Castle : Well, I can. I mean, you see the electricity between those two? It crackles.

  Kevin Ryan : Yeah, it might be a problem. We need to keep an eye on her.

  Richard Castle : Well, actually, I think we can do more than that. There's a listening device built into Sonia's ankle monitor.

  Kevin Ryan : A hidden mic?

  Richard Castle : Yeah. All we have to do is enter the security number into the app, we can hear everything they're saying.

  Kevin Ryan : But they wouldn't know we were listening. That would be an invasion of their privacy.

  Richard Castle : You got a problem with that?

  Kevin Ryan : No! No.

• [Castle and Ryan hear tapping over a hidden microphone as Espostio questions someone] 

  Kevin Ryan : Wait, does that sound like...

  Richard Castle : He sounds like he's playing Five Finger Fillet with the bartender. It certainly does.

  Kevin Ryan , Richard Castle : Don't tell Beckett.

• Kevin Ryan : Let me see your hands!

  Sonia Ruiz : What? What, you think I was trying to escape? I see a gun and I run. I was trying to get to a phone to call 911.

  Kevin Ryan : Not buying it, sweetheart.

  Sonia Ruiz : Irish, I got three months left on my sentence, okay? I've already served nine long years. I run right now, they add another two, how dumb do you think I am?

  Javier Esposito : Don't answer that. It's a trap, trust me.

  Richard Castle : Do you think she's telling the truth?

  Javier Esposito : I don't know. It's not like she hasn't lied to me before.

• [after Sonia cut off her monitoring anklet and ran away] 

  Javier Esposito : Wait. Where's Beckett?

  Kevin Ryan : Well, she doesn't know. Because if she did, you'd be in deep trouble. So, we're gonna track your girl down before our captain finds out.

• Kevin Ryan : If Sonia was communicating with the killer, and she orchestrated this whole armored car heist to look *exactly* like the one she went to prison for, knowing that we'd go to talk to her.

  Javier Esposito : Then Sonia would get out and lead us to Joey, who pulled a gun so she could run away. The whole thing was an escape plan that she set up with Joey beforehand. Unfortunately for Sonia, we ran her down.

  Kevin Ryan : Okay, assuming all this is true, why now? I mean, she had three months left until parole. Why throw that all away?

  Javier Esposito : I don't know. But I bet you Joey does.

• Joey Montez : I don't know what you're talking about.

  Kevin Ryan : We pulled your financials, Joey. You know, it turns out that Chicken-Chicken-Chicken is bankrupt-bankrupt-bankrupt.

• Richard Castle : If Sonia and her partner wanted to kill Esposito, they would have done it here. No... They must need him for something.

  Kevin Ryan : The question is, why was Sonia so desperate to see her father before he died? According to Espo, they weren't even that close.

  Richard Castle : Maybe he has something she wanted.

  [spotting something under a chair] 

  Richard Castle : And I think I know what it is.

  [picking the object up, he shows it to Beckett and Ryan] 

  Kate Beckett : Gold. He was holding her cut of the heist from nine years ago.

  Kevin Ryan : Sonia didn't want the secret of the gold's location to die with her father.

  Richard Castle : They took Esposito for insurance, in case we tried to stop them.

  Kate Beckett : Which means, we find Pena's coin stash, we'll find Espo.

  Kevin Ryan : Problem is, we don't know the first thing about this guy.

  Kate Beckett : Well, time for a crash course. Let's tear this place apart.

• Kate Beckett : Sonia's dad owned at least a half a dozen businesses. Dry cleaners, car wash, a Cuban restaurant.

  Richard Castle : All high cash flow. Makes sense if he was selling off his gold bit by bit, he'd need a place to launder the money.

  Kate Beckett : Well, according to the companies' bank records, the weekly receipts were pretty uniform.

  Richard Castle : Except, look at this, the dry cleaners. About three months ago, there was a spike in the weekly deposit amount. And three months before that, and before that.

  Kate Beckett : Same with the restaurant.

  Richard Castle : So, he was retrieving some of the gold every three months, selling it off, and then running the proceeds through his businesses.

  Kate Beckett : Hey, Ryan, where is Vikram with the GPS info from Pena's phone?

  Kevin Ryan : He just sent this over. Pena stayed close to home most of the time. Except for this location.

  [shows screen] 

  Kevin Ryan : Looks to be an outlier. He wouldn't go there often. Only once every...

  Richard Castle : Every three months?

  Kevin Ryan : Exactly. And only at night.

  Kate Beckett : And what's there?

  Richard Castle : It's a, uh... It's an old Con Ed storage facility. Perfect place for stashing coins.

  Kate Beckett : Pena owned a transport company that subcontracts with Con Ed.

  Richard Castle : Then that's it. That's where he is.

  Kate Beckett : Let's go. Once they find the gold, they're gonna make a run for it.

  Richard Castle : After they kill Espo.
