Transcript
00:00There are two kinds of folks who sit around thinking about how to kill people.
00:03Psychopaths and mystery writers.
00:05I'm the kind that pays better.
00:06Who am I?
00:07I'm Rick Castle.
00:08Castle.
00:09Castle.
00:09I really am ruggedly handsome, aren't I?
00:11Every writer needs inspiration.
00:13And I've found mine.
00:14Detective Kate Beckett.
00:15Beckett.
00:16Beckett.
00:16Nicky Heath.
00:17The character he's basing on you.
00:18And thanks to my friendship with the mayor, I get to be on her case.
00:21I'd be happy to let you spank me.
00:23And together we catch killers.
00:25Make a pretty good team, you know.
00:26Like Starsky and Hutch.
00:27Turner and Hooch.
00:28You do remind me a little of Hooch.
00:30You do remind me a little of Hooch.
01:00Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:02Oh, oh, oh.
01:05Ah!
01:06Ah!
01:09Check your sick, Maverick.
01:10This is your captain up and on the mouse.
01:12Listen up, ladies and gentlemen.
01:14Our fugitive has been on the run for 90 minutes.
01:16We're in the pipe.
01:17Let's keep our feet dry this time.
01:19Jungle Radio, this is One Delta Bravo.
01:22Eyes on suspect.
01:23Requesting backup.
01:24Over.
01:26Requesting permission to deploy a laser-activated
01:28radioactive immobilizer.
01:31Permission denied.
01:32Really, Richard, I have all of these new lines to learn
01:36before my play goes into rehearse.
01:38I'm going in.
01:39If that comes any closer, you're going to have
01:41Black Hawk down on your hand.
01:43Ah!
01:47What's all this?
01:48Official police tactical training.
01:50Oh, hey, Dad, did you get a chance to sign that
01:52permission slip I gave you the other day?
01:53Haven't you learned to forge my signature yet?
01:55Credit cards, yes.
01:56Permission slips, no.
01:57It's for my civics class.
01:58Every student has a three-day volunteer internship
02:01at one of the city's agencies.
02:02Law enforcement, sanitation, fire.
02:04I'll go with fire.
02:05They have the best calendars.
02:07I went with law enforcement.
02:08Detective Beckett already said it's cool if I volunteer
02:10down at the station.
02:11Oh, well, as a member of the NYPD volunteer squad,
02:14I would be happy to show you the ropes.
02:16Actually, Detective Beckett is giving me
02:17my orientation course tomorrow morning.
02:19Then I would be honored to carpool with you or share a cab.
02:23Hmm.
02:24Hmm.
02:25Castle.
02:26Prelims suggest victim died of a single gunshot wound to the chest
02:31at close range.
02:32Any signs of struggle?
02:33Contusions coming up here and here, but it's likely a result of his tumble down the trash chute.
02:40What?
02:41What?
02:42What are you doing?
02:43Well, I can't breathe through my nose.
02:44I happen to have a very acute sense of smell.
02:45Suck it up, Castle.
02:46Real cops deal with worse.
02:47Yeah.
02:48Not to mention medical examiners.
02:49Do you know how long I have to shower before heading out on a date?
02:54No, but if he needs someone to time it for you, I'd be happy to have...
02:55Found it!
02:56Must have fallen on his jacket on the way down.
02:57Yep, that's our guy.
02:58All right, the name is Sam Parker and the driver's license has his address placed in Connecticut.
03:01Maybe he's visiting someone in the building.
03:02You're being dropping by?
03:03Ryan here.
03:04Thanks, bro.
03:05Esposito's up on fifteen.
03:06Says he found out where our guy was shot.
03:07Alright, let's go.
03:08Let's go.
03:09Bye.
03:10Bye.
03:11Bye.
03:12Bye.
03:13Bye.
03:14Bye.
03:15Bye.
03:16Bye.
03:17Bye.
03:18Bye.
03:19Bye.
03:20Bye.
03:21Bye.
03:22Bye.
03:23Bye.
03:24Bye.
03:25Bye.
03:26Bye.
03:27Bye.
03:28Bye.
03:29Bye.
03:30Bye.
03:31Bye.
03:33Hold on, Tim.
03:34And the blood's better?
03:35Our guy was shot right here.
03:36Then?
03:38You shoved head first down the chute.
03:42A killer who cleans up after himself.
03:44Very American psycho.
03:45He probably wanted to get out of the building unnoticed.
03:47Figured that the dumpster wouldn't be emptied for a couple of days.
03:50He didn't count on a tenon on the seventh floor.
03:53A hottie.
03:54Seen the body drop as she threw out her pizza box.
03:57Is she distraught?
03:58Because I can be very comforting.
03:59CSU's?
04:00Team's on its way.
04:01Neighbors didn't hear the shot.
04:03Uh, poor man's silencer.
04:06Must have picked it up from this pile here
04:08and then thrown it back when he was done.
04:09Resourceful.
04:10How did a clean-cut suburban guy end up this far from home,
04:12dead and thrown out with the trash?
04:22Are you ready?
04:23Here we go.
04:29I know Alexis already talked to you.
04:31I just wanted to make sure
04:32that you're really okay with having her here.
04:34I wouldn't have said yes if I wasn't.
04:36Well, yeah, but you're busy
04:38and I just don't want her to be in the way.
04:40Big Castle is the one who likes to get in the way.
04:42I'm sure Little Castle will be a pleasure.
04:44Sam Parker, age 38, lives in Connecticut
04:46with his wife Helen and his two kids.
04:48Wife's en route to the morgue to ID the body.
04:50We contacted the leasing office
04:51and they don't have a Sam Parker listed as a tenant.
04:53So he probably was visiting someone.
04:55Uniforms are canvassing, no hits yet.
04:57CSU's working to untangle the prince,
04:59but since it's a common room
05:00there's probably dozens of them.
05:02However, the chute handle, doorknob, and soda bottle
05:05were all wiped clean.
05:06All right, let's go visit the wife at the morgue.
05:07Maybe she can tell us what he was doing in the city tonight.
05:09And if she doesn't know, that tells us something too.
05:11Mm-hmm.
05:14Fresh.
05:15And hot, and hot, and hot.
05:17He doesn't make me coffee.
05:21You okay?
05:22This is never easy.
05:23No matter how much experience you have.
05:27Oh my God.
05:31I'm Detective Kay Beckett.
05:33I'm with the NYPD.
05:34I'm very sorry for your loss.
05:36Do you have any idea who did this?
05:39We are doing everything we can to figure that out.
05:41Excuse me, we're in the middle of an identification.
05:49That's why she's here.
05:51And you are?
05:52I'm here to identify my husband.
05:54Oh my God.
05:58Excuse me?
05:59Your husband?
06:01What's your relation to the victim?
06:03I'm his fiancée.
06:04I'm sorry, what did you just say?
06:07I'm his fiancée.
06:13Dude, you are so busted.
06:34I don't even know how to get the children out of here.
06:40I'm just kidding.
06:42Is that our Vic's wife?
06:45Fiancée.
06:47The wife is over there.
06:50Come again?
06:52Fiancée?
06:53Mm-hmm.
06:54Wife.
06:55Mm-hmm.
06:57Oh boy.
06:58I know.
06:59Isn't it delicious?
07:01Okay, who do we talk to first?
07:02Hmm?
07:09I know this is difficult, Miss Reed, but if we could ask you a few questions.
07:14How long did you know Mr. Parker?
07:17Parker?
07:18Sam.
07:20His name's Jake.
07:21Jake Holland.
07:25According to his driver's license, it's Sam Parker.
07:29It was all a lie?
07:30Even his name?
07:34Where did the two of you meet?
07:36At work.
07:37A girlfriend of mine said that there was this great guy in her department and did I want to meet him?
07:42And when did you two last speak?
07:44This afternoon.
07:45He called to say he was on his way back to the city.
07:47His father is in the hospital upstate.
07:49He has late stage Alzheimer's and Jake would drive up to see him every...
07:53I'm so stupid.
07:54He was spending the weekends with his wife.
08:04So you were intending to see him tonight?
08:09We were going to get takeout and watch a movie.
08:11A neighbor stopped me in the hallway and told me that the police had been there, but when I called nobody could tell me anything.
08:16I guess now we know why.
08:18Because we ID'd him as Sam Parker.
08:20Somebody at the morgue confirmed that a body had been picked up at his address, so I went down there.
08:26When he proposed, I told my best friend and she was all.
08:33We've only known him six months, but I didn't care.
08:38He was the one.
08:43How could he do this?
08:45This is insane.
08:46Who is this woman?
08:48Sam would never.
08:49He...
08:50He loved me.
08:51Our kids meant everything to him.
08:53Apparently, there was more to it than just the affair, Mrs. Parker.
08:57Your husband was using a false name at his job.
09:00Well, I don't understand. Why would he do that?
09:02We're still trying to figure that out, but from what we understand, he met Miss Reed at his office.
09:07He started there about six months ago.
09:10He'd been passed over for promotion at his old firm.
09:14There are not a lot of opportunities in Green Solutions, so...
09:18He took the job, even though it was in the city.
09:20Green Solutions as in environmentally conscious.
09:23He did corporate consulting.
09:25I had to reduce waste, save energy.
09:29It was a passion of his.
09:31It's very commendable.
09:33Well, all that working and commuting were running him ragged, so...
09:36He found a cheap sublet.
09:38It was hard, but...
09:40If it all worked out, we were gonna move down to the city so that we could all be together.
09:44Mrs. Parker, did you have any idea that your husband was having an affair?
09:49I know what you're thinking.
09:51Why didn't I notice the signs?
09:54We have two children together.
09:56We do not have a nanny, so every second of every minute of my day is about my kids.
10:01And if there was an issue, I'd call Sam on his cell phone, and he would always answer.
10:06I never...
10:11Never thought I'd be sitting here justifying my marriage.
10:15With the wife, it was only call my cell during the week routine.
10:19With the fiancé, it pulled out the trustee, I can't call you from the hospital act.
10:23Man, my girlfriend freaks out if I don't check in, like, every hour.
10:26You do check in, like, every hour.
10:29Sometimes more.
10:31This guy had both of these women believing that they were his one and only.
10:35People believe what they want to believe.
10:37Until the dead truth sets in.
10:38What, you think one of them caught on to what Sam was doing?
10:40And didn't take too kindly when they discovered they weren't the only woman in his life.
10:43Mmm, I don't know. They seemed pretty shocked to me.
10:47Yeah, to me too. But we gotta cover all of our bases.
10:50Both of them had soft alibis.
10:52The wife said that she was watching TV while the kids were upstairs sleeping,
10:55and the fiancé said that she was home alone getting ready to meet him.
10:58I'll run phone and financials, see if anything pops.
11:01Could I run?
11:02Right.
11:04Do you think he would have gone through with it?
11:06Through with what?
11:08Marrying Sarah if he hadn't gotten killed.
11:10Well, it was a pretty big rock he put on her finger with the fake identity he had set up.
11:15The county clerk's office never would have flagged him for someone who was already married.
11:19Yeah, but Sam was pretending to be Jake before he met Sarah.
11:22I don't understand the fake identity.
11:24Maybe to land the job.
11:25I understand fibbing on your resume, but changing your identity, the math doesn't quite add up for me.
11:29You know what math doesn't add up for me?
11:30Hmm?
11:31Two wives.
11:32One wife too many for you?
11:33Two wives too many.
11:34Seems like the common denominator in that equation is you.
11:37Good news!
11:38I'm finally embracing the lecture you gave me on the importance of organic food.
11:56You made my lunch.
11:57You think I'm gonna let you risk your life on the vending machines and stale donuts of the breaking?
12:05Wow.
12:07What?
12:08You look so...grown up.
12:12Really?
12:13Really.
12:14Well, Graham said presentation is vital.
12:17Well...
12:19Oh, I forgot my phone.
12:20Did that ever happen to you with me?
12:26One day you look and you see your boy is all grown up?
12:29We're still waiting for that moment, actually.
12:31I set you up with that, didn't I?
12:36Okay, so this is the property room.
12:38It's where we keep all the items that we find at a crime scene that aren't classified as evidence.
12:43Sort of like a lost and bound.
12:44Um, sort of.
12:46Why don't the victim's families claim this stuff?
12:49Well, loved ones are aware of the big-ticket items, like rings and watches, but things like sunglasses and lighters, those usually go unclaimed.
12:56Are these case numbers?
12:59Exactly.
13:00So, the idea is to get rid of all of this stuff and stick it into storage, but before we do that we have to catalog it just in case someone comes in with a claim.
13:07Okay, so you need a description of every item, along with its corresponding case number, downloaded into the database.
13:11Mm-hmm. And I know that this isn't exactly what you were thinking of when you asked to volunteer, but we're low on manpower and this would be very helpful.
13:18Don't worry about it. This place is going to be so organized when I'm done you won't even recognize it.
13:22I bet I won't.
13:24Detective Beckett?
13:26I know my dad can sometimes be a handful, and by sometimes I mean all the time, but I won't let you know you don't have to worry about me.
13:33I'm about getting the job done.
13:42Beckett.
13:43Sir.
13:45Paul?
13:46Alexis?
13:47She's fine.
13:48You know, our first day of preschool, I hid outside in the bushes all day just to make sure she was all right.
13:52First time my son went to summer camp, I followed the bus all the way to the Adirondacks.
13:57You two are both either very sweet or very creepy.
14:01Super led us into Sam Parker's apartment.
14:03Jake Holland's apartment.
14:04Same guy.
14:05Yeah, just trying to keep it straight forever.
14:07Anyway, there was no signs of a struggle when Sam's bag was...
14:10Jake's bag.
14:12Was still sitting by the door from when he came home from visiting his family in Connecticut.
14:16Which explains why we found the Sam Parker wallet on when he was killed, as opposed to this one we found in his dresser.
14:22Jake Holland's wallet.
14:23It's got his driver's license with his New York address, work ID, the whole shebang.
14:27Oh, please tell me that's the whole double-sided picture frame gag.
14:31A lovely fiance, which can easily be swapped out for the wife and kids, should they ever visit daddy in the big city.
14:38Big news is, we found this sitting on the kitchen counter. There's a voicemail you're gonna wanna hear.
14:43I'm not gonna let you get away with this, you worthless piece of trash.
14:46If you don't call me back tonight, then my next call is to Helen.
14:49Someone caught on to Sam's double life.
14:51Ran the number. Belongs to one Charles De Petro.
14:54De Petro? That's his wife's maiden name.
14:56It's hyphenated on her driver's license.
14:58Mm-hmm. Charlie is Helen's brother.
15:00He found out what Sam was up to.
15:02And decided to take out the trash.
15:12Mr. De Petro, I can understand the instinct of protection.
15:14If I had a sister and her husband was cheating on her, I'd wanna set him straight too.
15:18That's not why I left the message.
15:20Did you know that Sam was cheating on Helen?
15:22Not until she called me last night and told me he'd been killed.
15:24And what did you mean when you said,
15:26I won't let you get away with this?
15:28He owed me money.
15:29So, Sam borrowed money from you?
15:3220 G's. He needed it to cover the mortgage.
15:35He had already borrowed against the equity in the house.
15:37And what was the arrangement?
15:39He said he needed a couple months.
15:41When he started the new job in the city, I figured he'd be making more dough.
15:44Helen didn't know about this.
15:45He didn't want her to worry.
15:47And as long as he paid me back, I said it'd be our secret.
15:50And did he pay any of it back?
15:52Not a cent.
15:53He kept saying he was pulling in less money.
15:55I thought he was lying.
15:56And why take the job that far from home and force Helen to deal with the kids on her own?
16:01Comes out now, he wasn't doing it for his family.
16:04He wanted the freedom to cheat on my sister.
16:07Brother's alibi checked out.
16:10He was working late when Sam Jake was shot.
16:13Any word on Parker's financials?
16:15Yeah, they were a paycheck away from defaulting on their mortgage.
16:17You know, the brother said that Sam was pulling in less money at his new job.
16:20If Sam was strapped for cash, why would he quit the job he had to take one that paid less?
16:24Didn't his wife say he was passed over for a promotion?
16:27Maybe it was a pride thing.
16:28Yeah, but you factor in the sublet, not to mention gas, that's a high price to pay for pride.
16:33Yeah, we'll never underestimate the fragility of the male ego.
16:36Oh, see, that's just a stereotype.
16:38No.
16:39She is baiting us, all right?
16:41Just ignore her and she'll lose her witchy powers.
16:43You wish.
16:44All right, let's go off to Parker's office.
16:50There's something?
16:51Um, where, where, uh, where's my broom?
16:57I was looking.
16:58Yeah.
17:00For the record, I did not.
17:02I don't know.
17:03Maybe I should have seen it.
17:05His resume was almost too good to be true.
17:08Top of his class at Berkeley, Stanford Business School.
17:11He must have really needed this job to lie so bad.
17:14So there's no other reason you could think of as to why he lied?
17:17No.
17:18When you hired him, did you look into any of his references?
17:20Of course I did, Detective.
17:21I called him on myself and I got nothing but glowing recommendations.
17:25For a guy who didn't exist.
17:26I'd like to take a look at a copy of his resume if you still have it.
17:29I'll have human resources email it over to you.
17:32Uh, before we go, did you know that Mr. Parker was romantically involved with one of your employees?
17:36Sarah.
17:37Yeah, she's one of my best engineers.
17:41Ever notice any drama there?
17:43Drunken fighting at an office party, that sort of thing?
17:45No, never.
17:46They actually seem like a pretty solid couple.
17:48And she must be going through hell right now.
17:53We're sorry.
17:54The number you have reached is not in service.
17:56Please check the number or try your calling.
17:59That's the last one.
18:00Every single reference he gave is suddenly out of service?
18:03When, according to his boss, they're all up and running six months ago?
18:05So who's answering the dummy lines?
18:07Let's get a warrant for all these numbers.
18:09I'd like to know who they were registered to.
18:11Okay.
18:15This guy went to some pretty serious lengths to get this job.
18:18He must have amazing dental.
18:21Ew.
18:22I don't know where you got this work ethic, but it certainly was not for me.
18:27How's it going?
18:28Pretty good.
18:29The computer was a little glitchy at first, but that's because no one had run a software update in like two years.
18:33Plus it picked up some viruses at the zap.
18:36I aren't realizing that you are way overqualified for this job.
18:39I told you she was this smarty.
18:40But I do have one question.
18:42Like you said before, most of the items here are pretty junky and meaningless.
18:46I did find this though.
18:50Well, it's a brag book.
18:51You can brag about your kids.
18:52I used to have one in my wallet.
18:53Now it's on my phone.
18:54Some of the pictures are really old.
18:56Like they're one of a kind.
18:58Seems like something worth returning, only it wasn't tagged or anything.
19:01Yeah, but the problem is, is without a case number, it's difficult to find out who the victim was and how to get this back to the family.
19:08Okay.
19:09So then it just goes in the storage box, right?
19:12I'll tell you what.
19:13I'll give you a list of all the detectives who possibly worked this case.
19:17Show them the pictures.
19:18Maybe it'll strike up a memory.
19:19Only don't bother them if they seem busy.
19:21You're one to talk.
19:23Thanks so much.
19:24Excuse me.
19:26Beckett.
19:27Hmm.
19:28What's this?
19:29Dad.
19:30Okay.
19:31I'll be right there.
19:33The fiance's here.
19:34She wants to talk.
19:35Have fun.
19:42I knew she looked familiar at the morgue, but I couldn't place it at first.
19:45So you're saying that last night wasn't the first time you had seen Helen Parker?
19:49Well, there was something about her face, and then it hit me.
19:52I had seen her in front of Jake's apartment a couple weeks ago.
19:55Was she leaving the building?
19:56No.
19:57She was sitting in her car across the street.
19:59And you're sure it was Helen Parker?
20:00I'm sure of it now.
20:02Positive identification.
20:03From all the way across the street in a car?
20:05I made a note of it because the way she was staring at me was creepy.
20:09Like she was sizing me up.
20:12Miss Reed, the past 24 hours have been overwhelming, to say the least.
20:17It's not uncommon for witnesses' memories to be confused after a traumatic event.
20:22We just need to be absolutely sure.
20:24Look, I know what I saw.
20:26She was sitting in a silver hybrid staring at the front of the building.
20:30And did you tell your fiance about this?
20:32I know at the time I just dismissed it, but now it makes me wonder if I'm the only person in the whole situation who didn't know what was really going on.
20:41Silver hybrid.
20:50I guess Helen did know about her husband's affair.
20:52That would be a pretty strong motive.
20:54You came all this way because she told you some crazy story about me being parked outside the apartment.
21:00Miss Parker, we have to take every lead seriously.
21:03Did you ever think that maybe she made this up to take the attention off of herself?
21:09She was specific about your car.
21:11Silver hybrid? That's like saying somebody was wearing black shoes.
21:15That still doesn't answer the question.
21:18No.
21:21In the six months Sam had the apartment, I never went there.
21:27You never popped down just once for a date night?
21:29I mean, Connecticut's not that far a drive.
21:31Well, when you have two children under the age of ten, popping down for date night midweek is nearly impossible.
21:39Sam came home every weekend, and I would see him then.
21:44Okay, well, we just needed to check. It's possible that Miss Reed was mistaken.
21:49Did it ever occur to you that maybe she was the one that knew he was lying?
21:54We're considering every scenario.
21:56We got a lot of hangups last month. Do you think that's a coincidence?
21:59Did you tell Sam about it?
22:01I did. He said it was telemarketers, but it was her.
22:05How can you be sure?
22:06I know she has our phone number. She's called since Sam was killed.
22:10Sarah called you?
22:11She called about the funeral details. Can you believe that?
22:14If she thinks she's going to show her face her, she's sadly mistaken.
22:17Was that the only time you heard from Sarah?
22:19No. She called this morning and left some ridiculous message about getting things back from Sam,
22:24that she had given him, and then on and on about some pen that had been her grandfather's.
22:28We were married for ten years and eight months.
22:33If she thinks that her six month affair can hold a candle to that, I'm not giving her anything.
22:40That was a long drive. I can see why you got the apartment in the city.
22:46So, I did some background on Parker's job situation.
22:50Turns out that his old employer, Connecticut Solutions, has been circling the drain.
22:54Over the last couple of years, they've lost half their market share to his new employer, New York Recycle.
22:59Sounds like Sam was abandoning a sinking ship.
23:01To join the winning team.
23:03Supposedly, New York Recycle came up with some new technology that turned out to be a game changer.
23:07Apparently, these two CEOs have been major rivals from day one.
23:10Like Bill Gates and Steve Jobs.
23:12Kobe and LeBron.
23:14Joe Lee and Aniston.
23:15We get the picture. Rivals.
23:17Yes. My point was, maybe that's why Sam faked his resume.
23:20He didn't think that New York Recycle would hire him if they knew he was from Connecticut Solutions.
23:24Well, that makes sense.
23:27You're kidding me.
23:29Ah, thank you. You've been very helpful.
23:32Hey, the warrants just came through on the numbers on Sam's resume.
23:35His reference is phone numbers.
23:36They're all billed and registered to Connecticut Solutions, his old firm.
23:40Okay, why would they set up dummy phone lines and give phony recommendations?
23:44They wanted Sam to get hired.
23:46He wasn't passed over for promotion.
23:49He was planted at New York Recycle as a corporate spy.
23:53I'm sorry. I'm just trying to get my head around this idea.
24:05I mean, this is the guy who organized the potato sack race at the Labor Day picnic.
24:09Well, there's considerable circumstantial evidence that he was planted here by his former employer.
24:14We just don't have proof yet.
24:16Obviously, no one wants to get to the bottom of this more than I do.
24:19So you'll have our complete cooperation.
24:20What do you think Connecticut Solutions was after?
24:23Well, it's our battery recycling technology.
24:25I'm sure you both know you're not supposed to dump your batteries in with your trash.
24:28Now, batteries need to be disposed of properly or else the acids and the heavy metals will leach out into...
24:33And get into the water table.
24:34Exactly, yes.
24:35The problem is storing battery sludge can be quite expensive.
24:39But we figured out a way to actually recycle the stuff.
24:41So when you bid on a contract to haul away old batteries, you can do it cheaper.
24:45Which is why Connecticut Solutions lost half of its market share to you.
24:48Bottom line is they can't compete.
24:50Was Sarah Reid on the team of engineers that developed that technology?
24:53Yeah, that's right.
24:54That's probably why Sam Parker went out of his way to Romancer for access.
24:58It's pretty smart.
24:59Pardon me, but don't you mean despicable?
25:01The two aren't mutually exclusive.
25:03Would you mind if our forensic IT team took a look at Sarah's computer and Sam's... Jake's as well?
25:08They should be able to tell us whether your security was compromised and whether he got a hold of anything proprietary.
25:12Anything we can do to help.
25:14Okay, thanks. Forensic IT has taken possession of Sarah and Sam's computers.
25:18You know, there's a lot of corporate secrets I can see sending us by the steel, but all the skulking around for some battery sludge?
25:23Well, like the man said, it's a business, like any other.
25:26But whoever runs Connecticut Solutions is gonna have a hell of a lot of explaining to do.
25:30Is it true?
25:34Ms. Reid?
25:37What they're saying, is it true?
25:39Look, I can't go into details, but there's evidence that Jake was trying to steal information.
25:45Then it was all an act?
25:48No, that doesn't mean he didn't care about you.
25:51That's exactly what it means.
25:54He never loved me.
25:57You're just using me the whole time.
26:04This guy was good.
26:06He was running a secret email client from inside a hidden partition in his hard drive.
26:10English? From my partner here.
26:12He set things up so that he could send emails outside the company network in case anyone ever came snooping.
26:17What kind of emails?
26:18I speak computer.
26:20This, however, looks like chemistry.
26:24Was he communicating with anyone in particular?
26:26Yeah.
26:27All these emails were to the same guy.
26:30aberman at con-soul.net.
26:37Andy Berman.
26:38He's the CEO of Connecticut Solutions.
26:39He must have been who Sam was reporting to.
26:41They exchanged a bunch of emails a couple months ago.
26:43Then nothing to the night Sam was killed.
26:45And what'd that one say?
26:46Call me.
26:47We need to talk.
26:49Okay, yes, it's true.
26:51Sam emailed me the other night and I called him.
26:53From a pay phone?
26:54At a gas station near my house.
26:56Very cloak and dagger of you.
26:58He said he needed to meet me in the city.
27:00He said he finally figured out how New York Recycle was pulling it off.
27:03So you admit that you planted him there to steal their battery technology?
27:06They've been underbidding us left and right, stealing our business.
27:09Getting our hands on their recycling method was a way to level the playing field.
27:13They weren't going to share it, so I offered Sam a million dollar payday if he could get a hold of it.
27:19And when he called and said he completed his mission, you rushed right over?
27:23The thing about Sam is he and I had been down this road before.
27:27What do you mean?
27:28He told you he'd found it before?
27:30I wasted hundreds of thousands on research and development with the stuff he brought me.
27:34The chemical formulas were never complete.
27:36So when my engineers tried to fill in the blanks and test them, we failed every time.
27:40Finally, we ran out of money, so a couple of months ago I had to cut Sam loose.
27:45If Sam wasn't working for you, what was he calling about?
27:48He said he needed to show me something.
27:50What?
27:51I don't know.
27:52I drove into the city to meet him at his apartment, but as I pulled up there were cops all over the entrance.
27:57I got a bad feeling about it, so I turned around and I drove home.
28:02That's a very interesting story, Mr. Berman, but I have a different ending.
28:06One where you went upstairs to Sam's apartment and he told you that he finally found the real thing.
28:13You said so yourself.
28:15Your company didn't have the million dollars to pay him.
28:18So you did the one thing that you could.
28:23You killed him and you stole it in a desperate attempt to save your sinking company.
28:28I would like to call my lawyer now, please.
28:35It was pretty cool the way you filled in the story there.
28:37I think I must be rubbing off on you.
28:40That sounded dirtier than I meant it.
28:41Yo, Beckett.
28:43The specialist got a call out of Connecticut.
28:45New Haven PD have two women involved in an altercation.
28:48Speaking of dirty.
28:49And the ladies in question are asking for you before they're taken in for booking.
28:53For me? Why?
28:54Why?
28:56Oh, no.
28:57Oh, yes.
28:58They're holding Helen Parker for assault and Sarah Reed for trespassing.
29:01A wife and fiancé cat fight.
29:03Please tell me we can stop her popcorn on the way.
29:06Castle.
29:07Miss Reed was trespassing in the detached office.
29:18When Mrs. Parker confronted her, an altercation ensued.
29:21She tried to rip my purse off my arm.
29:23Almost dislocated my shoulder.
29:24Miss Reed, what were you doing in the Parker's office?
29:28She wouldn't give me back my pen.
29:29Your pen?
29:30My grandfather's fountain pen.
29:32I gave it to Jake.
29:33Sam!
29:34His name was Sam!
29:35I gave it to him before I knew he was a lying sack.
29:37And she wouldn't give it back to me.
29:38I'd look for it in the office.
29:40There was nothing there.
29:41I have no idea what she's talking about.
29:42Oh, really?
29:44Well, then what do you call this?
29:47That was in the office?
29:48Yes.
29:49It was right there in the drawer.
29:50How she could have missed it.
29:51I don't know.
29:52Unless, of course, she was lying and never bothered to look.
29:54Miss Reed, I understand how you're feeling.
29:55But breaking into someone's home is...
29:56No, this is my grandfather's pen.
29:58I never would have given it to Jake if I had known.
30:00Ladies, I'm wondering if maybe we can put this whole nasty episode behind us.
30:05She broke into my house.
30:06God knows what else she stole.
30:08Do you mind if I take a look at the first?
30:10Not at all.
30:21Happy now?
30:22Is everyone okay?
30:23Can we all just walk away?
30:28If I ever catch your face around you...
30:29For crying out loud, give it a rest.
30:30No wonder the guy had an ulcer.
30:31I would, too, if I was married to you.
30:32An ulcer?
30:33What are you talking about, you crazy lunatic?
30:35Look!
30:36Look!
30:37It broke into my house!
30:38Look!
30:41I understand that you're both angry and feeling betrayed,
30:44but taking it out on each other isn't going to help.
30:47So you can both press charges and make a bad thing worse,
30:49or you can calm down and walk away.
30:53Option number two is a limited time offer.
31:06Love you.
31:07See ya.
31:15Please tell me you did not sleep in the break room again.
31:18I went home.
31:19Just couldn't stop thinking about that cat fight last night.
31:21Oh, would you think less of me if I said me too?
31:25I kept thinking that that was a long way for Sarah to go
31:28just to pick up that pen.
31:29And that whole thing with the ulcers was...
31:31Oh, I know!
31:32That was a great desperate housewives moment
31:33the way Sarah just rubbed Helen's face in it.
31:36The thing is, there's nothing about an ulcer in Lainey's autopsy report.
31:40Sam had a clean bill of health.
31:42And what was Sarah talking about?
31:43The boys are looking into it right now.
31:44But according to Sam's date book, he had doctor's appointments every Tuesday for the last three weeks.
31:51Well, if he was being a hypochondriac about it, they would have told him right away he didn't have an ulcer.
31:55So what was he doing every Tuesday at 1pm?
31:57Another woman?
31:58So, the doctor's office has no patient records for Sam Parker or Jake Howard.
32:03Car service Sam was using confirmed that he gave the doctor's office as his destination when he was scheduling the cars.
32:09Oh, thanks, Elise.
32:10But I talked to the drivers.
32:11Sam changed the destination once they picked him up.
32:15First week he headed out to this residential address out in Long Island.
32:19Then next week he drove out to New York Recycles Processing Plant up in Paramus.
32:23And then last week he hit the port out in Newark.
32:26Sam wouldn't have wanted Sarah to get on to his 007 routine.
32:29So maybe he was slipping away to do his spying.
32:31At some house in Long Island?
32:33So, another woman.
32:35She and Sam were taking long romantic walks at Port Newark.
32:39Why you gotta ruin the dream?
32:40Listen, Sam was changing his destination last minute with the car service because he was trying to hide something.
32:44So, let's look in the addresses and see why he felt the need to give Sarah a cover story.
32:53State law requires a ten minute break every five hours.
33:07Thanks, Dad. I needed this.
33:09So, how goes your property room sleuthing?
33:11Not amazing.
33:12Oh, no. What happened to that list of detectives Becca gave you?
33:16I had to sit my last dead end.
33:18Well, what's important is that you tried.
33:21I know. I just really wanted to get those pictures back to the victim's family.
33:26I mean, I'd want them if they were pictures that you'd carried around.
33:31If you are imagining a scenario where I am no longer here and watching over your every move and protecting you from every danger, I can assure you that will never happen.
33:41I'm just saying I think it's important.
33:45No, you're right.
33:46But remember, there's a reason why a lot of this stuff goes unclaimed.
33:50I guess I just need to focus on cataloging for the rest of my time here.
33:54And before you know it, you'll be retired from law enforcement and back in the 11th grade.
33:59Thanks, Dad.
34:01For what? You're welcome.
34:03You just gave me a new leap.
34:05So I'll finish your cocoa.
34:09Two relationships. Can you imagine the stress of trying to pull that off?
34:17Yes.
34:20Uh, from a literary point of view.
34:22Hey, what'd you guys find?
34:24Well, we canvassed using a picture. We came up with a longshoreman in Port Newark who remembered Sam.
34:29Apparently he'd been asking about shipping manifests.
34:31Sounds random.
34:32The longshoreman couldn't help him, so Sam moved on.
34:34What about the address from the first Tuesday?
34:36Oh, here's where it gets good.
34:38The Long Island address is the residence of a single mother, Laura Branston, and her six-year-old daughter.
34:43I told you, it was another woman. Our love triangle just became a love square.
34:46Nope. Still a triangle. Different name, but that's...
34:50The fiancee. Sarah Reed.
34:54Well, it looks like Sam wasn't the only one hiding his identity.
35:07The engagement, the relationship, we know they were all fake.
35:11Love is a hard thing to disprove, Detective Beckett.
35:14This is a copy of your real driver's license, and this is your social security card.
35:20And this is the employment record from New York Recycle, under an assumed identity.
35:26Nothing like a fresh start.
35:28We did a little digging.
35:30Turns out New York Recycle isn't the first company you've worked for under a new identity.
35:34That girl's gotta make a living.
35:36Here's what I'm thinking.
35:38Lance Karlberg figured out that Sam was a spy.
35:41He contacted you, an expert in corporate espionage, and asked you to intercept him.
35:47I was just doing my job. Leading a man on isn't a crime, is it, Detective?
35:51Should be.
35:52I'm not looking into the leading on part. I'm looking into a murder, and you had access to Sam's apartment, and you were hired to take care of him.
35:58I was hired to get in his way.
36:00It was supposed to look like I had access to classified information, so when I struck up a flirtation, he thought the relationship would give him the access he needed.
36:07Once you had the relationship, what was the plan?
36:10I just had to leave my laptop lying around his apartment once or twice. My key card ended up in his laundry one weekend.
36:16Men think they're smart. The trick is to keep letting them think it.
36:22Um, so what was on the computer?
36:25Lance was feeding Sam these partial chemical formulas. He thought it would keep Connecticut solutions going in circles.
36:30Why not just fire him?
36:32Why not kill two birds with one stone, keep the enemy close, and run Connecticut into the ground?
36:37And what makes you think that Sam was falling for your routine?
36:41Well, I wondered at first, because he wouldn't sleep with me, and then I realized that he was being faithful to his wife, so I pretended to buy his whole I'm old-fashioned thing.
36:50He thought he was playing me.
36:52He was.
36:54This is Sam's autopsy report.
36:57Hmm. Sam didn't have an ulcer.
37:00He was seeing a doctor for it.
37:02No, that was just a story. He made you.
37:05No way. I would have been able to tell.
37:07Oh, I hate to burst this little alias bubble you got going on, but Sam found your house in Long Island.
37:14He knew you were more than just a flirty engineer.
37:17He played along not to arouse suspicion, but I think you already knew that.
37:21You knew that he made you, and that he found the secret method, and that's why you killed him.
37:29I think that sounds like a great spy versus spy story, but there is one problem.
37:35The night Sam was killed, I was at my daughter's recital, and there's about 20 other parents that can vouch for that.
37:43I like her. For the murder.
37:46See that crazy look in her eye? That's crazy killer look.
37:49Yo. Sarah's alibi checks out. Dance teacher puts her in the front row at the time of the murder.
37:54She's still got crazy eyes.
37:56He never loved her, she never loved him, and they both thought that they were playing each other.
37:59Which still doesn't explain he killed him.
38:01We're missing something.
38:02The pen.
38:04If Sarah's relationship with Sam was a fake...
38:06Then why did she give him her grandfather's special pen?
38:09And what was Sarah really looking for in Sam's office last night?
38:15Nothing.
38:16This doesn't make any sense.
38:18We went through Sarah's purse.
38:19If there was something in it, we would have found it.
38:27Castle, what are you doing?
38:28I'm writing the scene.
38:31Let's say Sarah found what it was she was looking for.
38:34She had it in her hand.
38:36That's when she would have heard Helen coming out of the house.
38:39She would have had to have gotten rid of whatever it was that she found.
38:44Great.
38:45You want to write the part where we find it?
38:47So Helen would never know.
38:49What do you know?
39:02Power motor's still on.
39:09We're gonna need some tape.
39:11These are the pics that our Vic took while we were supposedly at the doctor.
39:14According to New York Recycle, they shipped their battery sledge up to the recycling plant in Parameter.
39:19You don't need a boat to get to Parameter.
39:21Secret method, my ass.
39:22They weren't processing it.
39:23They were switching labels and dumping it.
39:30That Sam was quite the Aaron Brockovich, wasn't he?
39:33There was no secret method to battery recycling.
39:36You shipped the sledge out on cargo barges and dumped it in the ocean.
39:39The money you saved on storage and processing, you just put in your own pocket instead.
39:43Listen, I know my rights.
39:45And I don't have to say anything.
39:49You sold a bill of goods to your customers.
39:52You promised them that they were gonna help save the world.
39:55Instead, you poisoned it for money.
39:57What happened, Goldberg?
39:59Sam confront you?
40:00Threaten to ruin you?
40:02I didn't kill anyone.
40:04And you?
40:05You have no proof.
40:08Actually, I do.
40:09We ran ballistics.
40:21It's a match.
40:22We found it in the dumpster outside your apartment building.
40:25Had you recycled, you might have gotten away with it.
40:29The night that your husband was murdered, he went back to his office to grab the last few pieces of evidence he had collected.
40:37And by then, Karl Berg had already become suspicious.
40:41When he realized that your husband was contacting his old boss for help in exposing his company, Karl Berg attempted to buy his silence.
40:48But Sam wouldn't accept the bribe.
40:50Of course not.
40:51Not Sam.
40:53You said that the environment was the most important thing to your husband.
40:56Well, he died trying to save it, and we thought that you should know that.
41:01Hey.
41:02Hey.
41:03Check it out.
41:04The EPA is shutting down New York Recycle.
41:19Beckett.
41:22Anna Knowles?
41:24No, I don't know any Anna Knowles.
41:26I do.
41:27Uh, yeah.
41:28Send her up.
41:29So who's Anna Knowles?
41:31The pictures I found belong to her mother.
41:33Really?
41:34How'd you track them down?
41:35It was something you said, Dad.
41:37About me retiring from law enforcement.
41:39It got me thinking, what if the officer who had originally worked the case had since retired?
41:45Nice work.
41:46I'm very impressed you were able to close this case.
41:50I mean, I know it's not like the important stuff you do, but I...
41:53You know when a person loses someone?
41:56This is important.
41:58I bet that's her.
42:03You know, maybe you should talk to her.
42:08Remember the night you were with me, fell asleep by my side.
42:18Strangers to gather your hand in mine.
42:25I fell in love with her long hair.
42:29She's a chip off the old block, isn't she?
42:31Let's just say that you never found out.
42:35Who it was she never found in me.
42:44You know.
42:45She's a chip off the old block.
42:47She's lost in me.
42:49She's a chip off the old block and she's lost in me.
42:51She wins.
42:53She wins.
42:54She wins.
42:55She wins.
42:56We never found out.
42:57She wins.
42:58Ring.
42:59She's lost in me.
43:00She wins.
43:01She wins.
