00:00And thanks to my friendship with the mayor, I get to be on her case.
00:03Do I look like a killer to you?
00:05Yes, you kill my patients.
00:07And together we catch killers.
00:09I hate this case.
00:10I know, isn't it great?
00:30I have delicately placed one graham cracker,
00:50exactly six marshmallows,
00:52atop a perfectly melted chocolate bar.
00:55In an omelette, darling, really?
00:57Not an omelette, a smorlet.
00:59Uh-huh.
01:00Care for one?
01:01Yeah, thank you.
01:02What about you, sweetheart?
01:04Are you ready for your taste buds to be launched into breakfast nirvana?
01:07Sure, thanks.
01:09Oh, is it okay if my friend Ashley comes over tonight?
01:11Yes, of course. Now eat.
01:18Wow.
01:20Are there marshmallows in this?
01:22Yes.
01:23And chocolate?
01:24Yes. That's the point. It's a smorlet.
01:27I gotta go. Love you. Love you.
01:30Bye, honey.
01:32Mmm.
01:33This is almost as good as my chocolate, the most chimichanga.
01:36Uh-huh. I knew you'd reconsider. It's kind of like David Hasselhoff.
01:39First you're repulsed, but then, strangely, you're drawn in.
01:42No, still repulsed. Bye.
01:46What's up with Alexis? She seems a little avid.
01:48Isn't it obvious?
01:50What?
01:51Oh, she's in love.
01:53Alexis?
01:54Oh, come on, darling. In case you haven't noticed, she's not a little girl anymore.
01:58Thank you, Mother. I think if Alexis were in love, she would have told me.
02:01Uh-uh-uh-uh. The fact that she hasn't told you is how we know it's real.
02:06Mother.
02:07Okay, and the fact that she mentioned it to me last night.
02:11Who is she? Where does she meet him?
02:14I don't know. She wouldn't say.
02:16No, deep as honor. She didn't tell me anything.
02:19She didn't even tell me his name.
02:21What if she told you and not me?
02:23I'm supposed to be her go-to guy.
02:25Oh, darling, of course you are. It's just, you know, it's first love. It's magical, ethereal.
02:32It defies logic.
02:37Richard, your phone.
02:41Oh, Beckett. Maybe it's a nice murder, darling. Right in your day.
02:47Good boy.
02:50Castle.
02:52When Alexis took her first steps, I was there to catch her when she fell.
02:56The first time she rode her bike without training wheels, I was the maniac chasing her down the street,
03:00screaming for her to watch out for the old lady with the walker.
03:03Even her first word.
03:05Let me guess. Daddy?
03:07No, it's denouement.
03:08Oh.
03:09I stress story-struck it from an early age.
03:11Anyway, I'm afraid that this is the beginning of the end of our special thing.
03:17Yeah, I wouldn't worry, Castle. I mean, I've seen the way that she looks at you.
03:21Your real problem is that girls who adore their daddies usually end up marrying guys just like them.
03:26They do?
03:27Dr. Parrish! Good morning. Got an I.D.?
03:30Not yet.
03:31How come you guys never bring me coffee? I'm here before you, doing all the work.
03:35You can have the rest of mine.
03:37Actually, I don't drink coffee, but would it kill you to bring me a bear claw?
03:41Speaking of killing.
03:43Single G.S.W. to the chest, large caliber, probably a .45.
03:47Levitity suggests time of death around midnight.
03:50Hey, I had those boxers.
03:53Thomas Nash. Very pricey British brand.
03:56Amazingly soft as silk.
04:01Just saying he was probably very comfortable when he was shot and killed.
04:07So what was this guy doing out here practically naked at midnight?
04:10Don't bother with any of your perverted theories, Castle. I found fibers in the bullet hole.
04:14Which means he was wearing clothes when he was shot.
04:16That doesn't make any sense. The killer shot him and then hung around to take his bloody clothes off?
04:20Well, maybe the killer was worried that there was forensic evidence on the clothes that would connect them.
04:24Yo, we need to find this wallet out in the garbage can near Fifth.
04:28Photo on the license matches, Captain Underpants here.
04:32Sorry, my nephew loves his books.
04:35Daniel Goldstein, 25, lives in Soho.
04:39Yeah, he's also got a work ID for Berman Rose down on Wall Street.
04:42So he lived downtown and he worked downtown. What was he doing way up here?
04:46Let's take this down to the lab.
04:49So I wear boxers. What do you wear? Thong? Cheekies?
04:55I told you mine.
04:57Bloomers? Granny panties?
05:00Commando?
05:03His clothes were taken? Why would anyone take his clothes?
05:07We don't know, Miss Goldstein. Can you tell us what your brother might have been doing in the park?
05:10That late? I have no idea.
05:12Well, the place where Daniel was found is known for drug activity. Was he using?
05:16No. He barely even drank.
05:18Did he have any enemies or conflicts that you know of?
05:20No, no. Look, none of this makes any sense. It's just, it's not like him.
05:27Our parents both died in a car accident when he was 12 and since then he's always been so cautious.
05:33What about dating? Was there anyone special in his life?
05:35He wished, but no. He barely had a social life or social skills.
05:39I mean, he was such a sweetheart, but a dork, you know? And he was always at work anyway.
05:46At Berman Rose? What did he do for them?
05:49He created financial products. He was this incredible math genius. Got his PhD from MIT.
05:55I thought for sure he'd be a professor or something, but these hedge funds, they hire guys like him.
06:01They pay them obscene amounts of money.
06:0325 years old, he bought my apartment for me.
06:09Excuse me.
06:13What's up?
06:14Lab got a fingerprint off our Vicks wallet.
06:16Anyone good?
06:22Awaiting court dates on three aggravated assault cases in the past month, Mr. Dondre.
06:29You inflicted dozens of broken bones, gouged out one of your victim's eyes, bit off part of an ear of another one.
06:35Sounds like committing murder was inevitable.
06:37I'm just curious, why did you take his clothes?
06:40Wasn't me.
06:41Well, then why were your fingerprints on a dead man's wallet?
06:45Did he just happen to drop it and you politely picked it up for him?
06:48And why did my detectives find this unregistered 45 in your apartment,
06:53which just happens to match the number on your door?
06:56This is a 45 in your apartment, which just happens to match the size of the bullet hole in my victim.
07:04Hey.
07:05If you're so innocent, Mr. Dondre, why did you resist arrest and try to put one of my detectives through a wall?
07:13You know the right turtleneck?
07:15And no one's even gonna notice, bro.
07:19Maybe the scarf.
07:23Why don't you just confess to the truth? It's gonna come out sooner or later.
07:25He was already dead.
07:26With a wallet lying conveniently next to him?
07:31Look, if you're not going to admit to it,
07:34you might at least want to try coming up with a story that's a little more convincing.
07:38What happened?
07:47Like you weren't scared.
07:49I want this guy to fry, Beckett.
07:51Oh, he will.
07:52As soon as Laney confirms that that bullet is a 45.
07:55It's not a 45.
07:57Are you sure?
07:58I'm positive.
07:5938?
08:00Nope, it's not a 44 or a .357 or a .22 or a 9mm or any other kind of bullet I've ever seen.
08:06So it's a new kind of bullet?
08:08Oh, no.
08:09Not new at all.
08:10Check it out.
08:14It's round.
08:15See that white coating?
08:16Yeah, what is it? Oxidation?
08:17Lead oxide, to be exact.
08:19Rust?
08:20Yep.
08:21Based on the amount of it, I'd say that bullet is 200 years old.
08:25A 200-year-old bullet can only mean one thing.
08:29Time-traveling killer.
08:31Ergo, the killer could have entered present time through a time ripple, killed Goldstein,
08:37and then gone back through the time ripple, which means we just have to find the time ripple.
08:40Could you please stop saying time ripple?
08:43Yeah, that's kind of mean.
08:45I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
08:46I'm sorry.
08:47I'm sorry.
08:48I'm sorry.
08:49I'm sorry.
08:50I'm sorry.
08:51I'm sorry.
08:52I'm sorry.
08:53I'm sorry.
08:54I'm sorry.
08:55I'm sorry.
08:56I'm sorry.
08:57I'm sorry.
08:58I'm sorry.
08:59Yeah, that sounds kind of dirty, doesn't it?
09:01It's a ripple closed.
09:03Time machine.
09:04We need a time machine.
09:05Well, in this century, we still haven't ruled out our big buddy, Mr. Dondre.
09:09Yeah, it just doesn't seem like a time-travel type to me.
09:12Can't be a time-traveling killer.
09:13Bullet had 200 years of rust on it.
09:14If the killer had been in time travel, the bullet would have been brand new.
09:17Unless time travel causes rust.
09:19On your brain.
09:20Have you followed up with the victim's sister regarding the antique bullet?
09:22Yep, she has no clue about antique bullets or guns, but there's somebody who does.
09:26Abe Sandrich.
09:27Antique weapons expert, you requested.
09:30Reminds me, I'm starving.
09:34I like 45s.
09:37Catch the right angle, this sucker could take your head clean off.
09:41But, it's not the gun you're looking for.
09:44Why's that?
09:45Barrel would have had to be modified.
09:46This one's factory fresh.
09:48Well, do you think Dondre the Giant was telling the truth when he said he found the wallet in the grass?
09:51Well, the killer did take Goldstein's clothes, so it's possible the wallet might have fallen out when he left the crime scene.
09:57What kind of a pistol would have fired that bullet?
10:00We usually just call them lead balls, for obvious reasons.
10:04I'd say a whole lot of 18th century flintlocks.
10:07Too many brands to even speculate.
10:09You'll need to find the actual pistol to match it to this lead ball.
10:13And how many people would own that kind of antique pistol?
10:16Hard to say.
10:17They're considered collectible, so they don't have to be registered.
10:20Making it pretty smart to kill someone with one.
10:23Oh, yeah. Guns may be old, but they got plenty of killin' left in them.
10:29So, was Dondre a guy?
10:31I'm afraid not.
10:32Why did he go all Hulk Hogan on me?
10:34Well, why did the scorpion sting the frog? It's his nature.
10:37Yeah, well, Dondre will be seeing nature from behind bars from now on for assaulting an officer.
10:41I'll see he gets the Max detective.
10:43Thank you, Captain.
10:44You know, you can take a couple days if you like. Catch some movies.
10:46Read Naked Heat?
10:47No. No need, sir.
10:57So, no luck with the clothes.
10:59You need to look in every garbage can within a five block radius of the park.
11:02What is so special about these clothes that our killer would take them?
11:07Maybe the killer came through the time ripple naked and needed the clothes.
11:12Like in the Terminator.
11:15Sadly, I don't have a better theory at this point.
11:17So, question is, what did a Wall Street number cruncher like Goldstein get himself into?
11:24Castle and I will go to his firm.
11:26You guys see if you can track down any antique gun enthusiasts on social media sites or local clubs.
11:30Maybe someone from Goldstein's life will pop.
11:32You got it.
11:35You know, I just don't get how someone could shoot Goldstein, steal his clothes, and then not hang on to his wallet.
11:43It just doesn't make any sense.
11:45Yeah.
11:48Maybe giant moths killed him and then ate his clothes.
11:51Could be.
11:53Hey, Castle.
11:55If this case is boring for you, you don't have to stay.
11:57No, I'm just checking my emails, my texts. See if Alexis called.
12:00I can't believe she told my mother she's in love. And it's holding out on me.
12:03Oh.
12:04I'm gonna call her.
12:05No, no. You have to let her tell you in her own time when she's ready.
12:09I'm the cool dad. Why can't she be ready?
12:11Listen to me. My dad tried to do the same thing when I was her age,
12:13and I ended up dating a grunge rocker who smelled like wet flannel and clothed cigarettes for seven months.
12:18You do not mess with a teenage girl and her hormones.
12:24You're right. I will call her.
12:31Did you say something about a giant moth?
12:33No.
12:37In his underwear?
12:38Danny's been working for me for two years, but I just don't know what he'd have been up to in the park.
12:43He wasn't exactly the outdoors type.
12:45What about antique guns, Mr. Murphy? Do you know anything about them?
12:48Antiques? No. No, he wasn't into guns at all.
12:51Well, I understand that he worked long hours. Do you know when he left last night?
12:55Yeah, right around 9.30.
12:57Oh, hey, let me help you with that.
12:59Thanks.
13:00This is Julia Foster, Danny's assistant. This is Detective Beckett and Richard Castle.
13:03Hi.
13:04Hi.
13:05Were you here last night when Goldstein left?
13:07Of course.
13:08Any idea where he was heading?
13:10No, he just said goodnight.
13:11And what about during the day? Was there anything out of the ordinary? Any strange phone calls?
13:16No, just the usual unhappy investor.
13:20Although...
13:22Although what?
13:24The Lower Tide Fund.
13:25What's that?
13:26It was one of the financial products Daniel created for us, a synthetic CDO cubed.
13:32English?
13:33A really big bet that prices would return to historical norms.
13:36So what happened?
13:37It tanked. Hundreds of millions of dollars were lost overnight.
13:41When was this?
13:42Three months ago.
13:43There must have been a lot of angry investors.
13:45We fielded scores of less than complimentary messages from clients.
13:49More like apoplectic. And a lot of them blamed Danny.
13:52All right, well, I'll need a copy of all of these messages and a list of anyone who lost their money in the fund.
14:00Any luck connecting antique gun owners to investors in Goldstein's failed fund, Detectives?
14:04Nah, so far I've seen a lot of cool old guns in these social media sites for antique gun lovers,
14:09but none of the owners pop in Goldstein's life.
14:12Irwin Quickdraw Finkelstein.
14:14Proud owner of a Remington Outlaw made in 1875.
14:18Now that's a great looking gun.
14:20Check it out, Esposito.
14:24Yeah, that's nice.
14:26So back then they were into the artistry of it all.
14:28Yeah, they're like little sculptures that can kill.
14:31With this list of lower-tide fund investors, they all lost more than a million bucks apiece.
14:35A million dollars. If I had that kind of scratch, I'd put it in something safe, like my mattress.
14:39Check it out, Ivan Yosemite Sam Podofsky.
14:43Wait a minute, Ivan Podofsky?
14:45Yeah, what do you got?
14:51Boom.
14:52Looks like we have a winner.
14:54You're right, he does kind of look like Yosemite Sam.
14:57On a bad hair day.
14:59Yeah, well, in addition to having an antique gun collection,
15:02Mr. Podofsky here lost more than four million bucks in our Vicks lower-tide fund.
15:06He also left this message to Goldstein the day the fund flatlined.
15:09They had a way of handling folks like you in the old country, Goldstein.
15:14It's called a firing squad.
15:17You think he offered them a blindfold and a cigarette?
15:30They had a way of handling folks like you in the old country, Goldstein.
15:35It's called a firing squad.
15:38I think some context is in order.
15:41I had only just lost four million dollars.
15:44Yes, and in that context, you threatened to kill Mr. Goldstein, and then he was killed.
15:48Where were you last night between 11 and 1?
15:50Asleep, in my bed.
15:52And can anyone vouch for that?
15:53Me.
15:54Myself and I got your back, too.
15:56Look, I know how this appears, but I think there's an explanation.
16:01Fire away.
16:04Several months ago, I had a consultation at Behrman Rose.
16:08When I mentioned my guns, Goldstein asked if I knew how he could get a hold of a Sherlock Holmes gun.
16:14So you're pointing the finger at Sir Arthur Conan Doyle?
16:17I'm saying that Goldstein clearly had an interest in antique guns.
16:21Maybe that interest got him killed.
16:24If you're so confident that Goldstein got mixed up with someone else,
16:26I'm sure you won't mind submitting your collection for testing with ballistics.
16:30These are antiques, detective.
16:32Would you prefer being arrested for murder?
16:37Ballistics is taking possession of Padofsky's guns.
16:40They should have preliminary results by tomorrow.
16:42They never prefer to be arrested for murder.
16:44All right, keep at it.
16:45Yeah.
16:47Yo.
16:48Just got a hit from Goldstein's car from traffic enforcement.
16:51Parking ticket from last night.
16:53No way.
16:54What?
16:55This has got to be a joke.
16:56What are you talking about, Castle?
16:57Goldstein drives a DeLorean.
16:59The car used as a time machine and back to the future?
17:02There's no way that's a coincidence.
17:04The ticket was written at two in the morning.
17:06That's post-mortem.
17:07The car should still be there.
17:08Yeah, east 82nd, between Lex and 3rd.
17:10That's a few blocks from the park.
17:12Yeah, but if you're going to park illegally, why not park closer?
17:15Because he was going somewhere on that block.
17:18Three more parking tickets in the last several months.
17:20All on 82nd between Lex and 3rd.
17:22So he was going somewhere regularly on that block.
17:24Maybe a girlfriend.
17:25Unless you think that's where that time ripple is.
17:27Could be.
17:30Look into it. Pick that car up.
17:31Gotcha.
17:38Gotta be kidding.
17:44That's definitely Goldstein's car.
17:46Or a time machine.
17:48Yep, if I'm not mistaken, that's a flux capacitor in there.
17:51And that is the reactor core.
17:54Maybe Castle was right.
17:56Goldstein came back to the future and he got whacked, huh?
17:59Why'd he keep coming here?
18:00I don't know.
18:01Maybe there's something in the car that'll help.
18:03Hope so.
18:04A lot of doors to knock on.
18:06Wow.
18:08Look, Patty.
18:09I got a Vick's car that needs towing.
18:11It's at 238 east 82nd.
18:15It's an 81 to 82 DeLorean.
18:17New York plates.
18:19JLD...
18:20Hey, Javi.
18:25Let me call you back.
18:28Excuse me, sir.
18:29I'm Detective Ryan, this is Detective Esposito.
18:31Mind if we ask you a few questions?
18:33Top of the morning to you, Constables.
18:35Lord Henry, at your service.
18:39Thanks.
18:40Mind telling us where you got those clothes?
18:41Oh, not at all, dear boy.
18:43I picked them up at the haberdashery across the park.
18:47Well, gentlemen.
18:48If that is all, I shall bid you a good day.
18:51Just a second, pal.
18:52You know, we think those clothes might have been involved...
18:54I said good day.
18:56Sir, we need you to come down...
18:57Don't die!
19:06You all right, bro?
19:08I'm fine.
19:09Unhand me, you rogue!
19:12All right, thank you, Ryan.
19:14Esposito?
19:15Home resting.
19:16So our Lord Henry story checks out.
19:18Ryan found a matching ascot in a garbage can...
19:21where Henry said that he found the clothes.
19:24Our guy might be unstable, but he is not our killer.
19:28So why was Goldstein wearing this costume?
19:32Well, it's Victorian.
19:33Antique.
19:35Kind of fits with the whole time traveler theory, don't you think?
19:38I don't know what to think.
19:40But the plot thickens.
19:41Forensics came back on the clothes?
19:42Between the garbage can and our homeless guy...
19:44there was quite a list of grossed out substances...
19:46of which I will spare you the details.
19:48But I did find something interesting on the right hand glove...
19:50and the right sleeve of the shirt.
19:53Potassium nitrate and sulfur.
19:56Gunshot residue?
19:57Sir Goldstein did not go quietly into the night.
19:59He had a gun.
20:00And he fired back.
20:07I got something here.
20:13Beckett!
20:20Another antique.
20:21Looks exactly like the one that killed Goldstein.
20:23Yes, it does.
20:27Let's say that our killer...
20:30Let's say that our killer is standing...
20:33over here.
20:37Goldstein was killed all the way over there.
20:39Goldstein was killed all the way over there.
20:42A nice flat area between them?
20:44What are you getting at, Kessler? Some kind of game?
20:46Not a game.
20:47Goldstein was wearing formal turn of the century clothes.
20:50He shot an antique bullet...
20:53identical to the one he was killed with.
20:56Probably fired from an identical gun.
21:00Laney said he was killed at about midnight?
21:03St. James Church is right over there.
21:05Thanks. On Madison.
21:06I bet they could hear the bells chiming...
21:08all the way from over here.
21:10Nine-thirty...
21:12ish.
21:14They stood at about 40 paces from one another.
21:18It wasn't a game.
21:20It was an old-fashioned duel.
21:37DAD
22:00Move, Jasper, he's moving!
22:01Oh, God! Don't shoot my...
22:03It's okay, Ashley. He's not going to shoot you.
22:04What the heck, Dad?
22:06I might be asking you the same...
22:09Ashley? This is Ashley?
22:11Ash, this is my dad, Rick.
22:13And I have no idea why he's waving a gun.
22:15So nice to meet you, Mr. Castle.
22:17You too, Ashley. And I have a perfectly good reason why I'm waving a gun.
22:20Excuse us.
22:25You're disappointing yourself.
22:27I got this gun for research for a case.
22:30Which you might know if you checked in with me today.
22:32What's that supposed to mean?
22:33Let's just say one of us has nothing to hide.
22:35Perhaps you'd like to explain yourself?
22:37What, that I was kissing a boy? Is that a problem?
22:39You tell me.
22:41Dad, the only reason I invited Ashley over tonight was so you could meet him.
22:45Yes, well, me meeting Ashley has smeared the lip gloss all over your face.
22:49I really should be going.
22:51You can stay, Ashley.
22:55Oh, the gun.
22:57My bad.
22:59Please, Ashley, stay.
23:01You can check out the gun.
23:02No, thanks.
23:04Call me later?
23:06Yeah, if it's okay with your gun.
23:08Dad.
23:09Yeah, it's okay with me.
23:13And I just want you to know how much I respect Alexis.
23:15I mean, you don't have to worry about issues of respect.
23:17She's probably the most respectable person I know, and I respect you too.
23:23It's good to know that.
23:35I like him.
23:37He's respectful.
23:48Got it. Thanks.
23:50Hey.
23:51Hey. So, Ivan Podolsky's antique gun collection all cleared ballistics.
23:55Well, at least some guy in ballistics had fun firing them off.
23:58I also checked with Goldstein's sister.
24:02I also checked with Goldstein's sister and co-workers.
24:05None of them know anything about duels or Victorian clothes or what Goldstein was doing on East 82nd.
24:12Sounds like he had a secret life.
24:14That somehow led to a duel.
24:16Maybe he figured someone besmirched his honor.
24:19Maybe it was about a girl.
24:20Matter of fact, Alexis earned a boyfriend who has a girl's name.
24:23By the way, he thought I was going to shoot him last night.
24:26Hey.
24:27Hey. How's Esposito?
24:28He's sleeping in, mostly because he can't move.
24:30Did you figure out what Goldstein was doing on East 82nd?
24:32No, but get this.
24:33I'm going through Goldstein's car and I find a pile of receipts he must have been planning to submit for reimbursement.
24:37One of them from three weeks ago at a cafe.
24:40On it, he wrote, coffee with Troy Kenworth.
24:43And that name kind of rings a bell.
24:45One of the angry lower-tide fund investors?
24:47No, but his father Charles Kenworth was.
24:49Guy loses two million bucks.
24:51And then he loses his house, his marriage, and then two months ago he killed himself.
24:56Did Troy have any priors?
24:58More like afters.
24:59After his father committed suicide, he was charged with assault and four separate bar fights.
25:03Revenge?
25:04Oldest motive for murder in the book.
25:06Maybe Troy thought someone besmirched his father's honor.
25:09And then he forced Goldstein to settle the score.
25:13Yeah, it was the one who found his body.
25:16The report says that he used a shotgun.
25:20Hey.
25:22What are you doing here?
25:24Beckett's doing a mothering thing.
25:26Wanted to limit the testosterone in the room.
25:28I can't imagine walking in on that.
25:31Yeah.
25:33Pretty messy. I try not to think about it.
25:36I understand.
25:37But since then, Mr. Kenworth, you have charges pending in four assault cases.
25:42I started drinking too much. Flashed out.
25:45But those were just random people at bars.
25:47I mean, they weren't even responsible for your father's suicide.
25:50But Goldstein...
25:52He put your father in the fund that lost him all of his money.
25:55I could understand blaming him.
25:57I did.
25:59But then I talked to him and he said that he warned Pop to diversify.
26:02And the fact is, Dad and Mom had been having problems for years.
26:05When we lost the house and I had to drop out of school, it was the last straw and Mom left him.
26:09That's what pushed him over the edge.
26:11And ever since his death, Mom's been struggling to make payments on our apartment.
26:14Is that why you went to go and see Goldstein three weeks ago?
26:17Look, I wanted to find out if any money was left in the country.
26:20Look, I wanted to find out if any money was left in the account.
26:22And what did Goldstein tell you?
26:24The truth. All the money's gone.
26:26Well, that must have made you pretty angry.
26:28Okay. I know what you're getting at.
26:31But that meeting is what turned me around.
26:33I haven't had a drink since. Mom and I have been able to stay in our place.
26:36I might even go back to school next semester.
26:38All because Danny's a stand-up guy and he gave me a job.
26:41That's where I was the night he got killed.
26:43At Berman Rose?
26:46Uh, no.
26:47What kind of a job did Danny give you?
26:49I can't say.
26:50Look, I had to sign a confidentiality agreement, okay?
26:52I can be fired.
26:54Or you could be arrested. Is this job on 82nd between Lex and 3rd?
27:12What was the exact number of pounds that Mr. Fogg bet that he could travel around the world in 80 days?
27:1620,000.
27:18Grexer.
27:19Named the volcano that led to the center of the Earth.
27:21Oh, I want to say...
27:23NYPD. Open the damn door.
27:44Where are we?
27:45Victorian London.
27:47When are we?
27:481892.
27:52What is this place?
27:53Gaslamp League. A private steampunk society.
27:57Straight ahead is our club president, Owen Peterson.
28:00He's on the Pennyfather.
28:04All right, then.
28:10Oh, it's the time machine from Time and Away. I love that movie.
28:14Give us a poem!
28:16Steampunk?
28:17It's a subculture that embraces the simplicity and romance of the past,
28:22at the same time couples it with the hope and promise and sheer super-coolness of futuristic design.
28:28You're cloned, you say? There are more of you?
28:31Well, the more, the merrier. To you's all, I'll be true.
28:39Excuse me, Mr. Peterson, I'm...
28:40Can I try that?
28:41Can I try that?
28:45I don't know what to tell you, detective. We all heard about Danny yesterday.
28:48It's hard to believe we saw him here the night before.
28:50Well, the way you and your friends were yucking it up makes me feel like you weren't so upset.
28:53We're just romantics, detective.
28:55Look at the world, don't like what we see, so we recreate it here.
28:58An oasis where human potential and ingenuity is limitless,
29:01where there's poetry and wonder and meaning even in death.
29:05What time did he leave that night?
29:07Around 11.30.
29:08Did he tell you what he was doing?
29:09No.
29:10He went to the park for a duel.
29:13What do you mean, a duel?
29:14The kind where people shoot at each other.
29:16They were using antique guns. Do you know anything about that?
29:27Dueling pistols.
29:29With, uh, lead balls? White coated?
29:40This has been fired recently.
29:42They're just for show.
29:47Adam, stop! Stop!
29:54Adam, wait! Get out of the way!
29:55I think he's going for the time machine!
29:58It's just too much interviews. I'm not waiting to take the whole day off.
30:00Because I'm fine.
30:05Stop him!
30:10Adam!
30:16Hey, Esposito!
30:18How's your neck?
30:27Yeah, I shot him.
30:30He just kind of crumbled over backwards, but I thought he was kidding.
30:34I jogged over expecting him to jump up any second, but
30:37he was just lying there, so still.
30:39And then I saw the blood, and I hear Julia, she's on her knees screaming,
30:42no, please, God, no, I freaked out.
30:45We took his clothes, and I just ran.
30:47Julia? You mean Goldstein's assistant?
30:49He was in love with her.
30:51Had they been seeing each other a long time?
30:53No. No, Dan just kissed her once a couple weeks ago out at a bar, but
30:57she wasn't interested in him.
30:59So you were involved with her?
31:00Not really involved, but
31:03Dan caught us fooling around in my office late one night last week.
31:06And you couldn't think of a better way of settling this other than a duel?
31:09We just thought it would be funny.
31:11Dan, he swore that we couldn't get hurt.
31:12Shooting at each other?
31:13He ran all these complex equations.
31:15He said that at 40 paces there was no chance that we could actually hit each other.
31:19Something about 18th century guns having no rifling in the barrel.
31:23So if you couldn't kill each other, what was the point of the duel?
31:27To impress Julia.
31:29She would never get serious with geeks like us.
31:32But we figured that maybe if she saw us duel over her, then
31:38maybe that one of us could...
31:49Julia confirmed that she was the only other person present at the duel.
31:52No one else knew.
31:55All right, let her go.
31:58How do you point the gun at someone and shoot and not expect to kill them?
32:02They were blinded by the romance of it all.
32:04And Goldstein did the math.
32:05Well, between this and the Lower Tide Fund,
32:08maybe he's not such a genius.
32:10Maybe he's just unlucky.
32:11Well, then I've got a problem.
32:13Because I have to make a recommendation to the DA between murder and manslaughter.
32:16The difference being life in prison or just a couple of years.
32:22I mean, are antique guns really so inaccurate?
32:27Only one way to find out.
32:44That's your target? That's my target.
32:46Yes.
32:47Shoot your target.
32:57Bang! Bang!
32:59Bang! Bang!
33:01Kiss! Kiss!
33:03Bang! Bang!
33:05Kiss! Kiss!
33:06Bang! Bang!
33:12There's always something behind
33:15You think I'm deaf or blind
33:18A loving word and then you go
33:20Bang! Bang!
33:21A whisper heard and then you go
33:27Bang!
33:29Manslaughter it is.
33:32Yeah.
33:42Hey, Dad.
33:46Hey, there's my girl.
33:48Come here. Come here.
33:53It's alright. Hang on.
33:56There you go.
33:58Hey, about, uh, last night, um, I was, it was unexpected.
34:03Yeah.
34:04I'm, I'm sorry.
34:05I'm sorry, too. I should have told you Ashley was a boy.
34:08Oh, why, uh, why spoil the surprise?
34:11So I have a question for you, but it's a little embarrassing.
34:14Ooh, I love when you embarrass me.
34:16Dad.
34:19Well, hey, listen, you can, uh, you can ask me whatever you want.
34:23And I promise I'll do my best to make it as unembarrassing as possible.
34:30How do you know when you're in love?
34:32I know it's an emotion.
34:34A feeling, and you can't exactly define, like, technically how you know when you're feeling it.
34:38But since I've never felt it before, how do I know what I'm feeling is even in it at all?
34:42Except, of course, for the fact that I'm feeling all these things I've never felt before,
34:46like in my stomach, in my throat, and even kind of in my ears.
34:49I mean, which just has to mean that it's love, right?
34:52Considering I only feel them when I'm with Ashley or thinking about him.
34:55I mean, that's gotta be love, right?
34:58Yeah.
34:59Because I'm feeling all these things that I've read about in poems and heard about in songs,
35:02but never completely understood, but now I do.
35:04I understand, and I'm listening to all this music and reading all this poetry
35:07in a completely new and glorious light, which I think just has to mean that it's love.
35:11What do you think?
35:12And I can't stop thinking about him, Daddy.
35:14I don't even want to, because he's the greatest, sweetest, most adorable guy,
35:17and his nose crinkles when he laughs, and I'm just so happy.
35:21Thanks, Dad.
35:23I love you.
35:27I feel so much better now.
35:34I'm glad we had that talk.
35:38Becket, how do you know when you're in love?
35:41All the songs make sense.
35:44Adam Murphy didn't kill Goldstein.
35:46But he confessed.
35:48And I believe that he believes he did it, but he didn't.
35:51Do tell.
35:52It bothered me that we couldn't hit the target at the shooting range,
35:56and so I ran ballistics on the dueling pistols.
35:59The bullet that hit Daniel Goldstein didn't match either one of them.
36:03Adam couldn't have killed him.
36:05You're right.
36:06I'm sorry.
36:08I'm sorry.
36:10The bullet that hit Daniel Goldstein didn't match either one of them.
36:13Adam couldn't have killed him.
36:15You're talking full-on, grassy-noil conspiracy theory.
36:18Not theory. Fact.
36:20There was a third shooter, and that's our killer.
36:24You
36:35Hey, Becket!
36:38Did you find Adam Murphy's bullet?
36:40Lead ball.
36:41Yep.
36:42He didn't kill Goldstein, but he did kill Squirrelstein.
36:49What are the odds, huh?
36:51I don't know. They took his clothes, too.
36:54Could you...
36:55Aww.
36:56Yeah, I know. I'm sorry.
37:00Okay, so we know that Goldstein was standing right over here.
37:03Facing Adam, he was right over there.
37:05Right, and if our killer wanted to shoot him without either of them seeing him,
37:10he would be standing right over...
37:14there, by that clump of trees.
37:21Detective, I've got clothing fibers.
37:27This thread look familiar?
37:29Oh, I'd recognize that burgundy velvet anywhere.
37:31Kind of says steampunk, doesn't it?
37:33Matter of fact, I think I know the murder weapon.
37:38Volcano in journey to the center of the Earth.
37:40Snebbles.
37:41Castle.
37:46Couldn't stay away, huh? Can I get you guys something?
37:49Troy, we're looking for a shooter.
37:51Actually, I think we already found one. Nice uniform, by the way.
37:55We found your father's shotgun.
37:57We know that you modified it in order to shoot antique lead ball bullets.
38:00What are you talking about? Adam Murphy already confessed, right?
38:04Turns out Adam Murphy couldn't have done it.
38:06It's a science-y ballistics thing.
38:08It was pretty clever firing your father's shotgun at the exact moment that Adam and Goldstein fired their guns.
38:14Making Adam believe that he was the one that killed Goldstein right as the church bells chimed midnight.
38:19Isn't that right?
38:29Seeing him in here every night in that ridiculous outfit.
38:34Just throwing around all that money.
38:37Why should he get to live like that when my dad's dead?
38:44Knowing that our shooter was a staff member at the club led us straight back to Troy.
38:48You overheard Goldstein and Murphy planning the duel and took his opportunity.
38:52And then Troy's alibi fell apart as soon as we started interviewing other staff members who couldn't remember seeing him there half an hour before or after the duel.
38:59Dueling over a girl, avenging the death of a loved one.
39:01Cuts to the heart of romance.
39:03And the tragedy.
39:04Speaking of tragedy, did you hear about Detective Esposito?
39:07No, what about him?
39:08Oh, he...
39:15God, no. Dude.
39:18What happened? Esposito.
39:20No, I'm okay.
39:27I really am fine, bro. We got this stuff in storage.
39:30Oh, you should have seen your faces.
39:31Captain, you really sold that.
39:33Speaking of tragedy, did you hear about Detective Esposito?
39:35Hey, sir.
39:37Let's go.
39:38I'm not really that fine.
39:39Oh, yeah, let me just...
39:44Lock it down, lock it down.
39:45Yeah, yeah, yeah.
39:46Kate.
39:48Josh, what are you doing here?
39:50I got your text.
39:51You mean the text where I said I was going to pick you up?
39:54Yeah, I was nearby.
39:55Well, uh, Josh, this is Captain Montgomery, Richard Castle, Detectives Esposito and Ryan.
40:02Hey, boys.
40:03Boys.
40:04Catching any bad guys today?
40:05Every day.
40:06You all set?
40:07Yeah, let me just get my stuff.
40:14So.
40:16You and Beckett.
40:18What about us?
40:20You tell me.
40:23You're the writer.
40:24Yeah.
40:26Yeah.
40:27And...
40:28And you are...
40:30Kate hasn't told you about me, has she?
40:34What's to tell?
40:36Hey.
40:37You ready to go?
40:40Yeah.
40:41Yeah, see you around.
40:43Bye, guys.
40:45Later.
41:02Just you?
41:03Yes.
41:05Thanks for that talk last night.
41:07I feel so much better.
41:08Hey, you can, uh, you can always talk to me.
41:13Or at me.
41:14Yeah.
41:16Being in love is exhausting.
41:19Yeah, you got that right.
41:25You okay, Ted?
41:27You seem distracted.
41:28What are you talking about?
41:29You have my undivided attention.
41:31Good.
41:32Because I want to go on a date tonight.
41:34How's that sound?
41:36Of course.
41:37Great.
41:38Have a good time.
41:40I meant with you, Dad.
41:43You'll always be my go-to guy.
41:47Did Gran put you up to this?
41:49I have no idea what you're talking about.
41:53Pity date.
41:54I'll take it.
41:57Terrible liar.
