00:00Hey. Hey. I was, I was just trying on my Halloween costume. What exactly are you supposed to be?
00:23Space cowboy. Okay. A. There are no cows in space. B. Didn't you wear that like five years ago?
00:30So? So don't you think you should move on? I like it. What are you doing? I'm so late anyway.
00:36Halloween homework. The pits and the pendulum. The original saw. Have you decided what you're going to dress up as this year?
00:41Perhaps Indira Gandhi. Amelia Earhart. Oh! Hermione. I think I'm going to skip it. Skip Halloween.
00:50Well, dressing up. I'll still hand out candy at the door, but I'm too old to go trick-or-treating anymore.
00:55You know how I feel when the big kids come. I don't want to be that kid.
00:59But you have to go with me. You are my candy beard.
01:03Sorry, Dad. You're just going to have to get another beard.
01:06This discussion is not over.
01:09So, have you come up with a name for your parenting project, Baby Egg, yet?
01:13Wait, let me guess. Zack Eggfron.
01:16No. Egg Bagley Jr.
01:18I went to Kinsian. Paige and I are calling him Fagin. Get it?
01:22Fagin. Fake Baby Egg.
01:24Wouldn't that be Fagag?
01:26Beggy, what are you doing up so late?
01:30I just love this time of year. Crunchy leaves underfoot, the crisp, clean air.
01:38Smell of jack-o'-lanterns all aflame.
01:40Yeah, well, you wouldn't say that if you were a cop.
01:42Halloween's one of the worst weeks of the year for us.
01:46The body's already in a graveyard. Someone's trying to save some time.
01:50I do love walking through cemeteries.
01:52I love the stories. Check out this one.
01:54Elizabeth Dryden, December 3, 1962 to question mark?
01:58If they don't even know when she died, what's buried her?
02:01Are you wearing suspenders?
02:03Oh, yeah. Trying on costumes for my annual Halloween party. Costumes are mandatory.
02:09What's the story, guys?
02:10Take a look.
02:11Ouch.
02:12Are you kidding me? Is that a stake in his heart?
02:15Looks like Buffy's visiting the Big Apple.
02:18Someone thought he was a vampire.
02:20So did he. And they're not plastic pop-ins either.
02:23Are you telling me those are real?
02:25Or high-end veneers.
02:26Well, he's a vampire.
02:27No ID, no phone.
02:28We got guys sweeping the area for anything they could find.
02:31No witnesses either.
02:32Looks like he struggled.
02:34I'm thinking he hit his head on the stone
02:36or someone knocked him in the head before he was stabbed.
02:39Who would go to the trouble of killing someone that way?
02:42Lycans.
02:43They've been in war with the vampires ever since Lucian was murdered in the 15th century.
02:47Again, this is just theory.
02:57What is wrong?
03:06If he's a vampire and you pull that out, he comes back to life.
03:09If he does, then we can all go home early.
03:12Any idea as to who or what he is?
03:19He's human and the fangs are ceramic veneers.
03:22But he has two fresh avulsions near the femoral artery.
03:25Bite marks on his thigh?
03:27And I found these on his body.
03:29They're synthetic.
03:30Your killer was wearing a wig.
03:32It can't be easy to drive a stake through someone's chest.
03:36To break the rib cage, you'd have to pound it in with a rock.
03:39Someone didn't wash their hands before the stabbing.
03:41Check out these black smudges.
03:46You know how CSU run the stake?
03:48Any match on the Vicks prints?
03:50Nothing in the system.
03:51No hits with missing persons.
03:52No ID.
03:53But he has professional veneers.
03:55Yeah, so?
03:56I know the best Fangmaster in the city.
03:58Maybe he could identify him.
04:00Fangmaster?
04:02I hope this is for real, Castle, because if it's not, we're shortchanging our John Doe.
04:18Oh, trust me.
04:19I can't believe you've never heard of this place.
04:21I've got all my costumes here.
04:22We can use this opportunity to find you one for my Halloween party.
04:25How about slutty nurse?
04:28Fantasy's all you want, Castle.
04:29I'm not trying on costumes for you.
04:31No?
04:32Why not?
04:33You already got one.
04:34Who says I'm even coming to your party?
04:37Richard Castle!
04:38Change your mind?
04:39I'd love to fit you with a nice set of doubles.
04:40Uh, official police business today, Doc.
04:43Detective Beckett, I would like to introduce you to Dr. Barry Frank.
04:46Dental genius and Fangmaster extraordinaire.
04:48He did, uh, Brad Pitt's veneers for Interview with a Vampire.
04:51So what can I do for you?
04:52The master is in.
04:54We're investigating a homicide, and our victim had some work done.
04:57We were hoping you could help identify him.
04:59Oh, that's Crow.
05:02I did his veneers about, uh, I don't know, two months ago.
05:05Crow?
05:06Oh, people in the vampire fetish community, they give up their mundane names.
05:10You're not gonna find any Daves or Chucks or Megs here.
05:13You seem like a nice kid. What happened?
05:15That's what we're trying to figure out.
05:16We were hoping you would have a legal name or a billing address.
05:19Sure. Just, uh, let me look it up.
05:23Castle, what are you doing?
05:25Do you say anything like a mortal?
05:27Do you want to, uh, go get something pierced?
05:30No. Do you?
05:32Uh, wow.
05:34This is Matthew's apartment.
05:37You'd think he'd be troubled, but Matthew was a quiet kid.
05:40Shy.
05:41Had you, uh, heard or seen anything unusual lately?
05:44The vampire thing was a little weird, but my first husband was a Civil War reenactor.
05:49So, you tell me which is weirder.
05:52Oh, he was quite the artist.
05:54Yeah, but mostly comic books.
05:56It reminds me of early Frank Miller.
05:58Which Frank? Epic comic or Duck Horse Years?
06:01Oh, my God. That is the sexiest thing I ever heard you say.
06:04I had no idea you were interested in comic books.
06:06Oh, Castle, the things you don't know about me could fill a book.
06:11Hey.
06:13Check this out.
06:15He was developing a graphic novel.
06:22He's talented.
06:24Did Crow ever talk about his family?
06:26Well, he never mentioned any.
06:28I just figured he was pretty much on his own.
06:31A loner.
06:33Looks like he went to the Barker School of Design.
06:37There's only a partial social.
06:39We should be able to track down his next a kin through the school.
06:42Did you ever have any friends or visitors to his apartment?
06:45He brought a girl here once or twice.
06:47She was one of them.
06:49He could see them when she smiled.
06:51They did have a big fight the other night.
06:54She was screaming bloody murder.
06:57What did she look like?
06:58Uh, she had long black hair to her tush.
07:01Long black hair?
07:02Yeah.
07:03Did you get a name?
07:04No.
07:05He told me that she was famous or something.
07:07Uh, he said she had her own website on the internet.
07:11Well, we could check his browser history.
07:15Hmm.
07:16You think they're real?
07:17They're fangs, I mean.
07:19Vampire mistress Vixen.
07:21Her coven is called the Den of Iniquity.
07:23Coven?
07:24Yeah, a vampire coven is like joining a church or a club.
07:27You like to play golf?
07:28I like to play golf.
07:29You like to drink blood?
07:30I like to drink blood.
07:34But I...
07:35I used to go out with a girl who was into the lifestyle.
07:38What happened?
07:39Did the relationship suck?
07:40No!
07:41Deal breaker?
07:42She wanted to have sex in a coffin.
07:44I'm open-minded.
07:45I'm not that open-minded.
07:46Alright, did our mistress of the night have a phone number,
07:48or an address?
07:49Uh, only an email.
07:50However, there is information on the coven's next gathering,
07:54which meets tonight.
07:55Damn.
07:56I need a password.
07:57Or an old girlfriend.
08:02Hey, whoa, I haven't seen her in like a year.
08:09Fine, but I'm not sleeping with her.
08:11I'm looking for Vixen.
08:12Sorry.
08:13Pardon me.
08:14Excuse me.
08:15Excuse me.
08:17It's...
08:18It's okay.
08:19It's okay.
08:20It's okay.
08:21It's great.
08:23че, not to lose your eyes, my skills, mic-
08:24Please get the camera and riot.
08:25Hold on you.
08:26Woah, woah, woah, woah.
08:27I'm looking for Vixen.
08:34Sorry, pardon me.
08:35Excuse me.
08:36You're, uh, sanguinarians?
09:04Blood-drickers.
09:06All of our blood play is legal and consensual.
09:09We're not here about the club.
09:11Do you know somebody named Matthew Freeman?
09:13Who?
09:14Crow?
09:15Crow?
09:16Sure, why?
09:17Seen some kind of trouble?
09:19We found him in a cemetery.
09:21Someone put a stake through his arm.
09:25What is this?
09:26Some kind of joke?
09:27Let's go make fun of the vampires?
09:29It's not a joke.
09:30No way.
09:32What?
09:32Who would want to kill Crow like that?
09:38We were hoping you could tell us.
09:39Where were you last night, between 11 p.m. and midnight?
09:41I was here.
09:43Wait, you don't think I'm responsible?
09:45We found synthetic hairs on his body from a black wig.
09:49And bites on his thigh.
09:51But I didn't kill him.
09:52He was one of my lovers.
09:54So you saw him yesterday?
09:55Mid-afternoon, he left at 3.30.
09:58Oh, my God, it's so awful.
10:00Vixen?
10:01He's really dead?
10:03We have a witness who told us that you were fighting recently.
10:06Yes, because he'd been seeing someone else.
10:09Ultimately, we forgave him yesterday.
10:11We were making up.
10:13That's why you found my hair on him.
10:15You said he was seeing someone else?
10:18Damon.
10:18Damon fell in love with Crow and his art
10:22and talked him into writing a graphic novel.
10:24That's why he's dead.
10:26Their graphic novel, Blood Everlasting,
10:28is about a vampire in New York City.
10:31Only the guy that they were basing it on was real.
10:33And dangerous.
10:35A real vampire?
10:37He thinks he is.
10:38His name's Morgan Lockerbie.
10:39He was an original member of this coven,
10:41but something happened to him.
10:43He lost all hold of reality.
10:45He started believing that this was real.
10:47And now he only comes out at night
10:49and hangs out at the cemetery?
10:52It was just crazy.
10:54How do we find this Lockerbie?
10:56He's homeless, but Damon probably knows.
10:58Damon have a last name?
11:01I don't know his real name.
11:03He was Crow's boyfriend, not mine.
11:07You know, what is it with these people
11:09and they're dressing up like vampires?
11:10The covens, the drama?
11:13Well, it's not about the costumes or the makeup.
11:16A lot of the people who are committed to the fantasy
11:18are a little different.
11:20They're just looking for a place to fit in.
11:21Okay, that I get.
11:23It's just this whole fascination with the macabre,
11:26the drinking of the blood,
11:27the sharing of the blood,
11:28the, uh, having sex in coffins.
11:31Mm.
11:32Psychology 101.
11:33They probably had something happen to them
11:35when they were younger.
11:36Maybe they saw their dog get hit by a car,
11:38attended an open-casket funeral,
11:41had the loss of a childhood friend
11:43or parent.
11:47Some people become vampires.
11:49Some people become cops.
11:52Okay, then where did your fascination
11:53with the macabre come from?
11:55What happened to you?
11:57Yo, that art school registration info?
11:59Quarter from Barker came through
12:00from Matthew Freeman, a.k.a. Crow.
12:03His family's in Connecticut.
12:05Phone number's there.
12:06How'd it go with the club?
12:07Um, Morgan Lockerbie.
12:09Run him and see what you can find.
12:10And see if you can find Crow's friend, Damon.
12:12Does he have a last name?
12:13I'm not even sure that's his real first name.
12:17What?
12:17You guys are detectives.
12:19Detect.
12:19Look.
12:27Are you okay?
12:29I hate this part.
12:31It's the, uh, phone call that changes everything.
12:34I could stay, if you like.
12:36Oh, no.
12:38Sometimes it's easier without an audience.
12:42Mr. and Mrs. Freeman, do you have any idea
12:53who would try to harm your son?
12:55No.
12:56Matthew was very private about his life.
13:00There was little we knew about his so-called friends.
13:03Mom.
13:03I knew those people were dangerous.
13:05I should have stopped them from getting involved.
13:06Ellen, he was registered at the Barker School of Design.
13:10Did he ever attend?
13:12No.
13:12He, he dropped out.
13:14And when was the last time you saw Matthew?
13:16It's been months since we've seen Matthew.
13:19No, it was Crow now.
13:21He came home.
13:22He was dressed in black.
13:24He had skulls tattooed on his arm.
13:27Eyeliner on his eyes.
13:28Fangs.
13:30Should have gotten tougher on him.
13:31See, he was just a, a normal little boy.
13:38And then he fell in love with Art.
13:41And he got moody and, and he started hanging out with those people.
13:46When did you hear from him last?
13:48He called a couple of days ago and he left a message.
13:53And he sounded upset.
13:56I never found out why.
13:58Tough one.
14:01Yeah, they're all tough.
14:03So you got anything?
14:05Yeah, Vixen's alibi checked out.
14:07We've been talking to Crow's coven friends and searching through vampire websites.
14:10So far, no damning.
14:12What about Lockerbie?
14:14Morgan Lockerbie.
14:15Psychiatric disorder, 35.
14:17Committed by the state.
14:18That's the good news.
14:20Bad news is, he escaped a few years back.
14:22Nobody's seen him since.
14:23Got an address on file?
14:25No, he's completely off grid.
14:26What's your shadow doing?
14:30I don't know.
14:30Last time I saw him here, sifting through evidence from Crow's apartment.
14:34So are you going?
14:35To what?
14:36His Halloween party.
14:39I don't know.
14:40Throws a lot of parties.
14:41You?
14:41Are you kidding?
14:42I'm all over that.
14:43What are you going to wear?
14:44You want to know?
14:45You got to show.
14:47See what I got going on.
14:48Hot on the case, Castle?
14:55On the case of a good read.
14:57It's actually not bad.
14:59Esposito found Morgan Lockerbie.
15:03You mean, Morlock.
15:09Vixen was right.
15:10You smell like cherries.
15:14Hey, we got a hit on the...
15:17Are we interrupting something?
15:19No.
15:22Okay.
15:25Where'd you get a hit on?
15:26The, uh, prince on the stake in Crow's heart.
15:31Your girl Vixen was right.
15:32Morgan Lockerbie.
15:33The only thing is, he's one of the great unfindables.
15:35No address, no phone number, no trail.
15:37Maybe not.
15:40Here.
15:41Recognize that corner?
15:44That's Berman Clinton, Lower East Side.
15:46I think Crow may have drawn us a road map to Morlock.
16:07It's that way.
16:19You gotta be kidding me.
16:23You think he's in there?
16:24It is daytime.
16:25He thinks he's a vampire.
16:27That's where he'd be.
16:33I'll cover you.
16:36Together?
16:36All right.
16:38On three.
16:39All right.
16:41One.
16:44Two.
16:45Three.
16:49You see him jump?
16:51A real macho castle.
16:54Hey, hey, hey.
16:55Get him off.
16:58Get him off.
16:59Get him off.
17:00Get him off.
17:01Get him off.
17:02Oh, look.
17:02He bit me.
17:04Look.
17:04He is a vampire.
17:15He's not a vampire.
17:17But his skin's burned when the light hit him.
17:20He has porphyria.
17:21Some people call it the vampire disease.
17:23Its symptoms include extreme photosensitivity.
17:26The skin blister is when it's exposed to the sun.
17:28Victims are prone to hallucinations, paranoia.
17:32That explains his psych diagnosis.
17:34Exactly how contagious is it?
17:36It's a genetic disease.
17:38Besides, I put enough antibiotics on that bite to kill a small animal.
17:42Now, if we're done here, I gotta head back to the slab and see a man about a corpse.
17:45Thank you, Dr. Parrish.
17:46Castle was totally freaked out.
17:47You wanna bite me, you buy me dinner.
17:49Mr. Lockerbie.
18:06You're welcome.
18:07Morelock, do you know somebody named Crow?
18:18I'm the heartless bitch.
18:20Spots all over.
18:23Spots all over.
18:25Were you in the cemetery with Crow?
18:26Blood all over.
18:28Blood all over.
18:29There's been a murder, Mr. Lockerbie.
18:31Do you understand that?
18:33No.
18:33I didn't know.
18:34Were you in the cemetery with Crow?
18:36We found a wooden stake with your fingerprints all over it.
18:38I was scared, Crimson, to kill the bird.
18:41I should have buried you then, wicked boy.
18:43I should have buried you then.
18:45I didn't see him.
18:46I didn't see him.
18:47I didn't see him.
18:49I don't wanna tell the public defender how to do her job,
18:51but I'm gonna say that the insanity plea might be appropriate.
18:55Maybe the state psychiatrist can help us make sense out of Morlock's rantings
18:58before they take him away.
18:59Becket?
19:03Okay.
19:05Thanks.
19:06That was the lab.
19:07They were calling me to tell me that the smudge on the stake was India ink.
19:11Morlock must have gotten some on his hands going through a dumpster.
19:14India ink?
19:15Yeah.
19:17Why?
19:18India ink, or Chinese ink, has been used since 4th century B.C.,
19:21when it was called Masi.
19:23It's water-resistant, so it won't smudge when colored over.
19:26It's also the ink used by letterers in comic books.
19:29So if Crow was the illustrator...
19:31Then Crow's friend Damon was the letterer, but what would the ink be doing on the stake?
19:35What indeed?
19:36You guys, where are we on the friend?
19:38We're working on it.
19:39Yeah, well, could you work a little faster?
19:41Hey, Castle, you wanna help?
19:42I would love to, but I have got bigger pumpkins to carve.
19:48It was Halloween night at the Castle Hall,
19:52and everybody came to the monster's wall.
19:55How's your Nosferatu coming?
19:59The key to a good jack-o'-lantern is understanding negative space.
20:04It's not what's there.
20:06It's what's not there.
20:07I've taught you well, Grasshopper.
20:09Oh!
20:10What are my two pumpkin masters carving for this year's party?
20:14I am carving the traditional jack-o'-lantern,
20:17Mr. Scary Pumpkin Face.
20:19And I am carving Max Schreck in his role as Count Orlok.
20:24Dad's a little vampire-obsessed because of his case.
20:28Or maybe it's because of the bike.
20:31I swear, you have missed your calling.
20:33I don't even know why you bothered to write.
20:35You wanna carve with us?
20:36Oh, I can't.
20:37I'm off to a masquerade ball.
20:38Perhaps I'll meet my Gatsby.
20:41Oh!
20:42Oh, Mother, I'm impressed.
20:44You still fit into your palm dress.
20:45Thank you, Doc.
20:47Have you asked him yet?
20:48I was waiting for the right moment.
20:50Oh?
20:51Ask me why.
20:52Paige and I got invited to a party tomorrow,
20:54the night before Halloween, by seniors.
20:57By your grandmother's friends?
20:58No, Dad.
20:59Twelfth graders.
21:00But it'll be supervised.
21:02This is one of those crossroads moments, isn't it?
21:04Oh, let her go.
21:06She's far more responsible than you ever were.
21:09Yes, you can go.
21:10But if anything happens, it makes you feel uncomfortable.
21:13Anything at all.
21:14You call me.
21:15I don't care what it is.
21:16And there'll be no punishments, no incriminations, nothing.
21:19I promise.
21:19Just so long as you call.
21:20Yeah, yeah, I will.
21:21I promise.
21:21But nothing's gonna happen.
21:23But there's one more thing, though.
21:25Yes?
21:27Will you watch Fagan?
21:28Why, is he gonna hatch?
21:29No.
21:30Our health teacher says we can't leave him alone.
21:32That's considered egg abuse.
21:33And since Paige and I are co-parenting,
21:34and we're both going to the party,
21:35and her parents are going out,
21:36we need a sitter.
21:39Oh, no, sorry.
21:41Uh, plans.
21:42Yeah, okay.
21:43Sure, I'll watch your little egg child.
21:45But I want you to know,
21:46I'm far too young to be a grandparent.
21:48And if, uh,
21:49any of those senior boys bother you,
21:52father won't be quiet himself.
21:53He mumbles, he shouts,
22:05he throws himself against the bars,
22:06but there's just something about it.
22:09Although someone like Mr. Lockerbie
22:11will present as completely non-compass-mantus,
22:13he could still have moments of lucidity.
22:17The difficulty is separating the fantasy
22:20from the reality.
22:21Well, these were drawn by our victim,
22:23I was wondering if they suggested anything
22:25about his relationship with Mr. Lockerbie.
22:31I'd have to study them more
22:33to give you a diagnosis
22:34that these are more about the woman
22:35in the drawings than Lockerbie.
22:37What do you mean?
22:38He draws her as an angel,
22:40but always in the context of an act of violence.
22:43Honestly, it looks to me like the work
22:45of someone who was once traumatized.
22:46Well, that childhood trauma,
22:48what'd I tell you?
22:49Doc Holloway, this is Richard Castle.
22:51Dr. Holloway, say hello to a nice psychiatrist, Megan.
22:54Hello.
22:58I will arrange for someone from social services
23:00to come get Mr. Lockerbie.
23:02And if you want, I can have someone get him, too.
23:06Are you gonna eat that?
23:07Eat my own grandchild?
23:09What am I, a monster?
23:11Maybe that bite was catching.
23:13It's a school health sciences project
23:15helping de-romanticize having a family
23:17before you're ready to take responsibility.
23:19Alexis and Paige are going to their first senior party tonight,
23:22so I'm babysitting.
23:23Egg-sitting.
23:25Senior party, huh?
23:27What?
23:32Beckett.
23:33Show across a picture around the neighborhood.
23:34We got a lead on his friend Damon.
23:36You're not gonna believe this.
23:37The guy is dead.
23:39Shot right through the heart.
23:40And his place has been tossed.
23:42Oh.
23:43And, uh...
23:46He's a werewolf.
23:54Silver bullet?
23:55No, nine millimeter.
23:56I guess he's not a real werewolf.
23:58Nice.
23:59The hairs on his face and hands are synthetic,
24:02attached with spirit gum.
24:03It's a Halloween costume.
24:05According to his driver's license,
24:07Damon's real name is Jonas Westfall.
24:09He's a graduate student, NYU,
24:12in forensic anthropology.
24:14Then that explains the bones.
24:16Castle, don't touch.
24:18Hello.
24:19Canvassed the building.
24:20Neighbor remembers hearing something the other day
24:22but thought it was a car backfiring.
24:23The other day?
24:24Based on deterioration and lividity
24:26and the smell of that old Thai food,
24:29Wolf Boy was killed the same day as our vampire.
24:31I'd say a couple hours before.
24:35Ryan, track down the delivery guy.
24:37Find out when this was delivered
24:38and whether anyone else was up here when he brought it.
24:41Come as your alter ego.
24:44October 27th at 7 p.m.
24:46Our guy was going in this party.
24:47Same day that Crow was killed.
24:49I assume there's a connection.
24:51Hey.
24:53And you ain't.
24:54Which means Crow's killer was in the apartment too.
24:57But what were they looking for?
24:58Castle?
25:06Morlock?
25:07He comes here, shoots Damon,
25:09grabs a stake, goes off and kills Crow.
25:11And in the struggle, the ink bottle's broken.
25:13Wasn't Morlock.
25:15This victim was killed during the day.
25:17Morlock had porphyria.
25:19He would have burnt to a crisp.
25:20So if he didn't kill our werewolf...
25:22Then chances are he didn't kill our vampire.
25:24Well then how did the prince get on the stake?
25:25Maybe he was trying to help him.
25:28Maybe he was trying to save his friend.
25:30Are you sure about the time of death?
25:32His watch broke when he fell.
25:33It says 4 o'clock, October 27th.
25:36Well then if it wasn't Morlock, who was it?
25:38Then what were they looking for?
25:41Uh...
25:41I don't know what they were looking for,
25:44but I think I know what our Vic was hiding.
25:46So Jonas Westfall, a.k.a. Damon,
25:57was inches away from getting his Masters
25:59in Forensic Science from NYU.
26:01This all looks like part of his research.
26:04I went through a bone collecting phase
26:06when I was a kid.
26:07So whatever happened to you
26:09happened when you were young.
26:11What was it, Castle?
26:13Did you witness a murder?
26:14Or did you skin your knee and it bled?
26:15Hmm.
26:16Speaking of trauma,
26:17I wonder how little exes is gonna be at her party.
26:20Little Fagin is suffering from separation issues.
26:23Come on, Castle.
26:24You know mine.
26:24Tip for tat.
26:25Just because I've seen your tat
26:27doesn't mean I'm gonna show you mine.
26:30Check this out.
26:32Dated two years ago,
26:33a murdered woman was unearthed
26:34in the Pennsylvania woods
26:35above Lehigh River late Sunday night.
26:37Investigators say she'd been buried
26:38in the shallow grave for years.
26:40And?
26:40Based on the remains,
26:42investigators have attempted
26:43a forensic reconstruction
26:44of the murdered woman's face.
26:46That's a woman from Crow's drawings.
26:48Yet in the graphic novel,
26:50she consistently appears
26:52as the angel of death.
26:54Okay, so Crow became obsessed
26:55with Damon's case study.
26:57Why would they go to this much trouble
26:58to hide it?
26:58Why would someone kill to find it?
27:03Castle.
27:04Hmm?
27:04These sketches were drawn
27:06four years ago.
27:08No, no, that's impossible.
27:09This body wasn't discovered
27:10until two years ago.
27:12So either Crow is psychic or...
27:14Or he knew this woman
27:15before she died.
27:18Hey, Alexis, how you doing?
27:20Everything okay?
27:20No, Dad, it's Paige.
27:22I think the punch is spiked
27:23and she had too much to drink.
27:24I'm afraid something's gonna happen to her.
27:26I'm on my way.
27:26Oh, my God, is she all right?
27:35I don't know.
27:35She was swapping drinks for kisses
27:37and I tried to pull her away
27:38but she wouldn't let me.
27:39Would you give me a glass of water?
27:40Leave me alone, Alexis.
27:42Paige.
27:43Now, you're sure she hasn't been
27:45throwing up or unconscious?
27:46No, just falling down.
27:47All right, call her parents.
27:48Don't do it.
27:49Oh, my friends are a water runner.
27:51I mean, don't do it, Mr. Hustle.
27:53Just let me sleep over.
27:55What did she say?
27:56It's just drunk talk.
27:57She says don't call her parents
27:58or they'll murder her.
27:58Just let her sleep over.
28:00Do we have to call her parents?
28:01We do.
28:02Give me their number.
28:03She'll get in so much trouble.
28:05Less than if you would left her there.
28:08Now.
28:13Try to get her to drink that.
28:15Please.
28:22Adora.
28:23That's what he called her.
28:24We've seen her in Matthew's artwork for years.
28:27Do you know who she is?
28:29No.
28:29We'll just assume that she was a figment of his imagination.
28:33He called her his own personal ghost.
28:36He said she appeared in his dreams and nightmares.
28:41Well, she's not a figment.
28:43She's very real.
28:44Are you sure you don't recognize her?
28:52Because she could be anybody.
28:53She could be a teacher, a neighbor.
28:55No, I'm certain.
28:57We've only seen her in his art.
28:59Do you know if your son experienced anything traumatic when he was younger?
29:02What do you mean?
29:03I showed some of Matthew's drawings to one of our therapists, and he said that it looked
29:08like he might have witnessed something disturbing, seen something very violent.
29:14I really can't think of anything.
29:18Do you have any of Matthew's earlier drawings of this woman?
29:22No.
29:22He took it all with him when he left.
29:24You might want to check the portfolio with his application for Barker.
29:29All the work he cared about, he put in there.
29:31Thank you, Rosie.
29:32We'll look into it.
29:38What?
29:39Mill Castle?
29:40Uh, no.
29:41He had, uh, late night.
29:42What's up?
29:44I was talking to the Pennsylvania State Police about our victim's mystery woman, and they
29:48said I was the second person to call in the last two weeks about the woman they found
29:52in the woods.
29:52Did they tell you who else called?
29:54Jonas Westfall.
29:56Damon.
29:57Yep, our werewolf.
29:58And the forensics expert determined that the woman died 18 years ago from a gunshot wound
30:03to the chest from a 9mm handgun.
30:05Same as Damon.
30:06So I thought, what the hell?
30:08Compare the ballistics.
30:10The bullets are a match.
30:12Two murders that many years apart.
30:15Anything on the mystery woman?
30:17Mm-mm.
30:18Still haven't ID'd her.
30:19You know, Crow would have been two years old when that woman was killed.
30:22Do you remember anything from when you were that young?
30:26Beckett!
30:28Crow's portfolio?
30:29Yeah.
30:31And there's something you gotta see.
30:34Looks familiar?
30:35It's the same tree, just like where the body was found.
30:46You don't draw something with that precision from a dream.
30:49He's remembering it.
30:50Crow witnessed that woman's murder when he was two years old.
30:53He had to have been with someone.
30:55A sitter or a family member, or maybe even the killer.
30:58Run a background check on the Freemans.
30:59Find out where they were living 18 years ago.
31:01You got it.
31:05Hey, Castle.
31:06Alexis okay?
31:08She's, uh...
31:09He's a smart kid.
31:11You took care of Fagin.
31:14Yeah, well, he was easy.
31:17He didn't even fuss when I put him to bed.
31:19Yo, ready for more tales of the weird and strangely odd?
31:24We looked into the Freeman family history.
31:26Freeman is Janice's maiden name.
31:28When she and Alan got married, Alan took her name.
31:30So did Matthew.
31:32Well, he's either a feminist or he's hiding something.
31:35What's Alan's original last name?
31:36McGinty.
31:37And I think he was hiding something.
31:39Alan's first wife, Elizabeth McGinty, went missing from Summit, New Jersey, 18 years ago.
31:44She was never found.
31:46Alan lied to us.
31:48He knew exactly who his son was drawing.
31:52He was drawing his real mother.
31:54In Summit's only a couple of hours from where the body was found.
31:57Elizabeth McGinty, maiden name, Dryden.
32:00Dryden.
32:01Elizabeth Dryden.
32:03What?
32:04Question mark.
32:05Remember what I told you about gravestones telling stories?
32:08Crow came here for a reason.
32:10The cemetery management said that the family had a memorial service for their daughter
32:15about five years after she went missing.
32:17Damon must have looked at hundreds of reconstructed faces researching his thesis.
32:21I can't imagine the shock when he recognized one as a woman from Crow's drawings.
32:25Crow must have realized his family had been lying to him all these years.
32:29Huh.
32:29Fresh flowers on her grave.
32:31Crow brought his father here to confront him with his mother's grave.
32:33All of these years, you knew your son was drawing his mother, and you never said anything.
32:45I was protecting my family.
32:46You were protecting yourself.
32:48You're a cold-blooded killer.
32:50You killed your wife, and then you reported her missing, and then 18 years later, when your
32:54son found out, you killed him as well.
32:55No, you don't have to respond to that.
32:56No, no, no, no.
32:57She's accusing me of killing my son.
32:58Yes, I lied to Matthew, but I did it to protect him.
33:04I thought he was too young to understand.
33:06You were a suspect.
33:07Of course I was a suspect.
33:08I was her husband.
33:10There wasn't any evidence that tied me to her disappearance, because I had nothing to
33:14do with it.
33:16When Janice and I got married, it was like a chance.
33:20A chance at a fresh start.
33:22And so as soon as you were legally able, you married your nanny.
33:25Janice was there for us during a very dark time in our lives.
33:33We had press on the lawn.
33:35There were days without sleep.
33:36I was handing out flyers with Lizzie's picture on it, and Janice kept it together, and she
33:41protected Matthew.
33:43Then why would you lie to us?
33:45You told us in front of our daughter.
33:46What did you want me to do?
33:47Tell her that everything she thought was a lie?
33:49Rosie adored Matthew.
33:52She just found out he died.
33:54What would you have done?
33:56I would have told her the truth.
34:01He was nine years old when he first drew her face.
34:07He showed it to me.
34:08I thought I was seeing a ghost.
34:11I figured she was still somewhere in his head from his early memories.
34:17But we'd been living the lie for so long, it had become the truth.
34:20So how can I possibly tell him that Janice wasn't his mother?
34:25That his real mother ran away?
34:28Are we through here, detective?
34:29Not by a long shot, Lawson.
34:31The Connecticut State Police found a 9mm handgun in your client's home, and I am just
34:35betting that that is the same gun that killed Elizabeth Dryden McGinty and Jonas Westfall.
34:40Don't say anything, Alan.
34:42Oh, yeah, and there's also this.
34:47Your son witnessed his mother's murder.
34:50No.
35:01That's not possible.
35:03How is this possible?
35:13Excuse me.
35:14Um, how much longer are you people going to keep us waiting without letting us know
35:19what is going on?
35:20We are trying to find the answers, Mrs. Freeman.
35:32Spots.
35:33What?
35:33Spots all over.
35:34Blood all over.
35:35I should have buried you then, you wicked boy.
35:37What are you talking about?
35:39Morlock's crazy talk.
35:40It's just like Paige's drunk talk.
35:42You have to translate it.
35:43Is Morlock still on holding?
35:45Yeah.
35:48Mrs. Freeman, I am so sorry this is taking so long, but as long as you have to wait,
35:51you might as well be comfortable.
35:53Have you seen our bending machines?
35:54Yeah, straight through here.
35:55Right, just to the left here.
35:56Perfect.
35:57Right in there.
35:58Excellent.
35:59Straight through.
36:00Oh, wrong turn.
36:01Oh, I just beat Spots murder the crow!
36:05Bender him!
36:06Bender him!
36:07What a small world.
36:11Here you go.
36:13Why?
36:20Why?
36:20She killed Elizabeth so that she could have you to herself.
36:25And then she murdered Matthew and his friend Damon so that you would never find out.
36:29Matthew didn't know who to trust, so he asked Damon to hide the evidence, which ended up being smarter than he ever realized.
36:35She knew that it was only a matter of time before they figured out the truth about what she had done.
36:42So she followed Damon to his apartment and shot him.
36:45She used the same gun that she used to kill your first wife.
36:51What about my son?
36:52He was on his way to the cemetery to lay down flowers at his mother's grave.
37:02And when she saw the stakes in Damon's apartment, she figured that she could lay blame on the people in your son's life that you already hated.
37:10She raised him.
37:12She raised him.
37:15She was like his mother.
37:20He was a constant reminder of what she had done.
37:25And when he turned on her, she wasn't his mother anymore.
37:29I hope this doesn't destroy her.
37:54Will for a little while.
37:55And then one day she'll wake up and it'll just be a part of her life.
38:00Who knows, maybe she'll become a writer.
38:02Or a cop.
38:06You know, you still haven't told me where your fascination with murder came from.
38:13I was five years old.
38:15We were summering in the Hamptons.
38:17I was pretty much left to my own devices.
38:21So one day I was walking along the beach.
38:24I was miles from where I'd started.
38:28I was just about to turn back.
38:30When I saw something had washed up on the beach, I thought, maybe it's a whale or a turtle or a sea lion.
38:37So I ran over to see what it was.
38:40What was it?
38:43It was a boy.
38:45My age.
38:47It was our housekeeper's son.
38:49It must have just happened.
38:55Because the tide hadn't washed away the blood.
39:00We had just played hide and go seek the day before.
39:04What happened to him?
39:08They never found out.
39:09I'm so sorry, Castle.
39:20You made that up?
39:22It's what I do!
39:23You know what?
39:24You are so getting it for that one.
39:26The party is at nine o'clock.
39:28I cannot wait to see what you're wearing.
39:30Hey, you've been not in your costume.
39:43I'm going to stay upstairs.
39:44Not really in a party mood.
39:51What's wrong?
39:54Paige was so angry with me, she sabotaged our science project.
39:57She killed Fagin.
40:01She said it was an accident, but I know she did it on purpose to get back at me.
40:05Oh, that is so wrong on so many levels.
40:09How could she take care of him the way we did and then just destroy him?
40:13I don't know.
40:14I think that's one reason why I write about it.
40:18The way some people behave just bewilders me.
40:23I'll tell you this, though.
40:26There is nothing you could do that would stop me from protecting you or supporting you.
40:33Even if I get a D in science?
40:35Even if you get an F.
40:39Now, go get changed.
40:42The goblins and ghouls shall be arriving soon.
40:44They've got a spider on you.
40:45Careful, that is a potion of my own concoction.
40:59Drink it, and who knows who or what you might become.
41:03Also, you might wonder what happened to your pants.
41:05Sounds like my kind of party.
41:08Throw a great shindig for a 19th century poet, Mr. Poe.
41:11Well, I've always told him, darling, if you're going to do something, do it big or don't do it at all.
41:17Is that why you chose that hat?
41:21Hey, Castle.
41:22You looking for Becky?
41:23No.
41:24Why?
41:25She said she wasn't sure she'd make it.
41:26She had some paperwork to finish up.
41:28Well, it's still early.
41:29Hey, Poe, looking for me?
41:32What?
41:34You're you.
41:35You sound so disappointed, Castle.
41:37I said costume's mandatory.
41:38I mean, dress up, you know, be a little scary.
41:41Yeah, well, I was going for sexy.
41:50Now we're even.
41:55I'm giving you the bird.
42:00Stop it.
