I've said it before, but Ryan and Esposito so easily could have been ongoing stooges for Castle and Beckett. Indeed, it almost looked like they were going there early on, but they went a whole 'nother, much more surprising and better way.
She's not just a blob of energy, she's also a 14-year-old hormone bomb.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, Ryan and Esposito are my all time favorite 2nd cop partners. There's just so much more there there to their characters. And the fact that they give it play just makes me love this show.
I could do with Alexis angsting about more than just the boy, and I liked it when mom had more going on than wise fireside counsel for her son. But as far as secondary characters getting full shift, this show does really well with it for such an apparently lightweight show. Even Lanie gets character development.

When Beckett got shot, Esposito had to hold back Lanie from running to her. Just gut-wrenching.

At one point there was kind of a power walk going on - kind of a wedge formation with Beckett leading and Castle, Ryan and Esposito following. Loved the way it looked!
