I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Damn, just watching everyone know where that conversation was heading was hard. And in spite of having scene the tail end of that scene in the promos.

Oh shit! I remember that NOW from the previews last week, but I'd totally spaced on it.

Also, love seeing Robert Picardo, though I suspect that may have been his only scene.

I love this show. It's like the hot chocolate of procedurals.

bwaaa! the deep tender moment transforms into humorous fluff and gets a smile.

That was quite a leap of deduction. Me no likey.

Aaaaand now it makes horrific sense.

Beckett's confession of affection was nice and refreshing.

Crap, I missed the first 20 minutes of Castle. At least I got to see who done it. And I loved the little Beckett/Castle moment at the end.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I'm having a LOT of logic problems with the ending. The outwardly upstanding guy doubling as a heroin dealer is one thing, but the upstanding guy who's also a trained (and hired) assassin and starts dealing heroin when he knows his brother will be involved AND then kills his brother AND was hired to kill Beckett's mom for unknown reasons ten years earlier? That's a hell of a balancing act on Occam's razor.

He didn't know that his brother would be involved. He was dealing to the Latin Kings, and one of them started dealing on the Westies turf. The brother was sent to find the dealer/supplier and discovered it was his brother. Who, coincidentally also is or was a hired assassin.

Ah, that was the disconnect. I still have trouble reconciling some of the details, but that part makes sense, at least.

Art Crawl!!!

ION: Sark! and CKR! on 24!

Whew.

Got that out of my system.

I need to rewatch the ending of Castle because I misunderstood. As soon as there was Heroin involved I knew that the brother (who'd been in Afghanistan) was also involved. But - I thought he was just the guy that the assasin was working for not that he was the assasin. Confused.
