Castle 2:8
Posted by dorolerium on Tuesday, November 24th, 2009
I think for the first time ever, we actually witness the murder! A bike messenger is intentionally slammed into by some dude in a mysterious black car. His messenger package is stolen and the driver takes off. Weird!
Beckett naturally calls Castle about the murder, and he says:
Either there’s a dead body, or you just want to hear my sultry voice
I’m sure she answered dead body, but don’t you just want to say it’s the sultry voice! Remember, Nathan Fillion is on the Would Marry List…
Each week, the murders and investigations on this show are pretty intricate and I love it, it keeps me engaged and dying to watch the next episode. We will forget about the fact that I am at least a week behind on every show I watch.
Anyway, this one quickly leads to one of the richest most well known families in New York. Possibly fictional. I’ve never heard of the Wellsley’s, other than it was a prep school to teach women how to become perfect wives.
There are actually three separate murders in this episode, one of which is from ten years earlier, and each linked to the Wellsley family. Pretty much any time there is a rich family involved, there are rich skeletons as well, so that makes for some fun. And this episode made me wonder what you get charged with if you just say “take care of it” and don’t actually do anything yourself. I know this is criminal, I’m just curious what the official crime is.
One thing I am curious about is that all the people questioned for the murder from a decade ago seem to recall the details pretty easily. Am I the only person who is totally astonished? I can barely remember the first names of people I went to three years of school with, let alone one incident one night. Honestly, there are things I remember that may have just been dreams, I can’t promise they were actual events I experienced! I would be a terrible murder witness, apparently.
Also, do all rich people talk like the Wellsley family in this episode? They’re so…stiff!
