Quotes 

• [Castle dislikes the actress playing Nikki Heat] 

  Richard Castle : Nikki Heat... is classy, she's complicated. She's a... thinking man's cop.

  Kate Beckett : No, we can't judge a book by its cover.

  Richard Castle : Yes, actually. Yes, I can, when it's my book.

• [in the break room with Castle, watching Natalie at the murder board] 

  Kate Beckett : Do I really do that?

  Richard Castle : Yes... and it's adorable.

  Kate Beckett : If it's so adorable why didn't you sleep with me?

  [Castle looks at her in surprise] 

  Kate Beckett : Her-me, not me-me.

• [Natalie has purchased a costume that resembles Beckett's outfit] 

  Kate Beckett : [whispers]  You cannot tell me that that is *normal*.

  Richard Castle : She's just committed to the role.

  [Castle hurries to follow Natalie out the door] 

  Kate Beckett : You should be flattered.

  Kate Beckett : [to herself]  Yeah... sure... Until she steals my boyfriend and kills me in my *sleep*.

• Kate Beckett : Can we talk for a second?

  Richard Castle : Sure.

  [Beckett pulls him away from Natalie as fast as she can] 

  Kate Beckett : She took my *coffee*, Castle.

  Richard Castle : It's just coffee.

  Kate Beckett : Then what's next? My soul? Everything I do, she does. Even when I'm thinking, I can feel her in my head like some kind of a brain-eating parasite from one of her movies.

• Kevin Ryan : [watching Natalie, who is dressed like Beckett, in the bullpen]  We really should have a code word so we all know which Beckett to kill when her clone army attacks.

  Kate Beckett : Unless we make a preemptive strike.

• Natalie Rhodes : Can I ask you a question?

  Kate Beckett : Sure.

  Natalie Rhodes : Is Castle gay?

  [Beckett spit takes her coffee in surprise] 

  Kate Beckett : I'm sorry, what? No. No.

  Natalie Rhodes : Then you two are an item, but you're... sworn to secrecy, right?

  Kate Beckett : No, we are not an item. Why?

  Natalie Rhodes : [sighs]  Last night, I invited him back to my place, and he said something to me I have never from a man before.

  Kate Beckett : What?

  Natalie Rhodes : "No."

  Kate Beckett : No?

  Natalie Rhodes : I don't get it. He's into you, but you're determined not to give in to these feelings that you clearly have for him. So he *fantasizes* about you through his writing. It's literally verbal masturbation.

• [as she enters the precinct with Natalie and Castle] 

  Kate Beckett : And, oh... I'm so sorry everyone is staring. I already talked to them, but it's just... It's not every day we get someone famous in here.

  [Castle looks at Beckett, insulted] 

• [last lines] 

  [Ryan has just proposed to Jenny in the precinct] 

  Richard Castle : That was big.

  Kate Beckett : Oh... And intimate.
