Clips from Castle - What Lies Beneath (S08E08)

"Well, all I need is, uh..."
Castle
"a client."
Castle
"You guys, Lanie called."
Castle
"No usable prints from the crime scene,"
Castle
"and no hits off ballistics."
Castle
"Yo, The Butcherbird Song is still a popular novel, right?"
Castle
"I mean, it's 25 years old,"
Castle
"but our victim should still be getting huge royalty checks."
Castle
"Yeah. It's required reading in most high schools."
Castle
"Then why was he living in a one-bedroom apartment"
Castle
"and working as a janitor for the past five years?"
Castle
"I'll call the publisher, have them confirm who he is."
Castle
"No need."
Castle
"We can do that for you."
Castle
"Uh... Castle, what are you doing here?"
Castle
"Meet my client."
Castle
"This is Wendy Johnson, wife of Dave Johnson,"
Castle
"also known as famed novelist P.J. Moffet."
Castle
"We're here to make a statement."
Castle
"Well, we'll... escort her to Captain Beckett's office."
Castle
"Your client, Castle?"
Castle
"Please don't tell me you ambulance-chased this woman."
Castle
"Beckett, that is an outrageous accusation."
Castle
"I, as a member of the writing community,"
Castle
"merely went by her home to offer my condolences."
Castle
"Hmm. And I suppose you told her that you're a P.I."
Castle
"Who just happens to have connections with the NYPD."
Castle
"The topic may have come up."
Castle
"You look gorgeous, by the way."
Castle
"Uh, we should go and talk to your client."
Castle
"We'd only been married for eight months."
Castle
"I felt like I'd known him my entire life."
Castle
"Probably because I grew up just loving that book."
Castle
"Uh, yeah, about that, Mrs. Johnson..."
Castle
"considering your husband's success,"
Castle
"why was he working as a janitor?"
Castle
"Well, that was research for a new book."
Castle
"A second P.J. Moffet novel?"
Castle
"He was doing research for over five years?"
Castle
"Mm-hmm."
Castle
"Moffet was legendary"
Castle
"for total immersion in his subject matter..."
Castle
"much like me with you."
Castle
"Uh, did you know that before writing a single word"
Castle
"of The Butcherbird Song, Moffet spent seven years"
Castle
"living as a drug-addicted eskimo?"
Castle
"It's true."
Castle
"He was extremely dedicated to his craft."
Castle
"Even though he owns a ranch in Wyoming,"
Castle
"he insisted we live in Brooklyn for authenticity."
Castle
"Why did he break into St. Mark's church last night?"
Castle
"I can only guess it was to pray."
Castle
"He had been extremely troubled recently."
Castle
"Do you know about what?"
Castle
"I think it had to be his research."
Castle
"When Dave left,"
Castle
"he told me he met with someone that morning,"
Castle
"and things got heated."
Castle
"And who did he meet with?"
Castle
"He didn't say... just that the man was dangerous."
Castle
"Well, what was his new book about?"
Castle
"Um, the mafia."
Castle
"Hey. Where's Castle?"
Castle
"He took his client home."
Castle
"Remember, he doesn't work cases with us anymore."
Castle
"Hey. So, I found out where our vic was yesterday morning."
Castle
"According to his financials, he took a cab ride to Brooklyn."
Castle
"Where was he dropped off?"
Castle
"This guy's house... Milton Cicero."
Castle
"Works in sanitation."
Castle
"Word is he's totally mobbed up."
Castle
"If our vic was doing research for his book"
Castle
"and he asked too many questions,"
Castle
"Milton here might have gotten suspicious and taken Dave out."
Castle
"Okay."
Castle
"He did come to my house,"
Castle
"but I didn't kill him... I swear."
Castle
"- So, how do you know him? - I don't."
Castle
"He just came over, started asking me all these questions."
Castle
"About what?"
Castle
"Union kickbacks."
Castle
"He wanted to know where all the money comes from."
Castle
"Say..."
Castle
"You two have any idea who he really is?"
Castle
"- Yeah. He's P.J. Moffet, the novelist. - Yeah."
Castle
"P.J. What? The what?"
Castle
"No."
Castle
"That is Jimmy two guns O'Malley."
Castle
"Whoa. Wait. Wha... uh..."
Castle
"The Irish mobster"
Castle
"who ratted out his whole crew back in the '80s?"
Castle
"Bingo."
Castle
"He starts telling me all about Witness Protection"
Castle
"and how the feds gave him a new name... Dave Johnson."
Castle
"Hold up... doesn't the mob have a contract out"
Castle
"on Jimmy two guns' life?"
Castle
"Do they?"
Castle
"I wouldn't know anything about that."
Castle
"Milton?"
Castle
"Did you try to collect on that reward?"
Castle
"Don't tell me that you made a call up to the mob in Boston."
Castle
"I didn't... not call them."
Castle
"Okay, bye-bye."
Castle
"So, I just got off the phone with P.J. Moffet's publisher."
Castle
"Our author is still very much alive."
Castle
"Dave Johnson was lying about who he was."
Castle
"Yeah, we figured."
Castle
"So, Dave tells Milton that he's Jimmy two guns O'Malley,"
Castle
"and then Milton rats him out to the Irish mob."
Castle
"Maybe our vic was a con man."
Castle
"And conning the wrong guy got him killed."
Castle
"S08E04 What Lies Beneath"
Castle
"Captain Beckett?"
Castle
"Hey."
Castle
"You heard back from the FBI?"
Castle
"Yeah, it's looking more and more like the Irish mob"
Castle
"are responsible for Dave's murder."
Castle
"Meet Billy o'Rourke, a suspected hit man from southie."
Castle
"Word on the street is he landed at jfk yesterday afternoon."
Castle
"Is he still in town?"
