Quotes 

• Madison Queller : Okay. Next time I'm hitting on a guy you like, come clean with me *before* I go out with him so you don't have to arrest me to break up the date.

  Kate Beckett : Madison, that's not...

  Madison Queller : No, no, no, no, no. I get it. You're hot for Castle. You wanna make little Castle babies. Why couldn't you just be honest.

  Kate Beckett : [whispers urgently]  Maddy.

  Madison Queller : What?

  Kate Beckett : [whispering]  He can hear us.

• Richard Castle : High school friend, huh? I bet she knows where all your bodies are buried.

  Kate Beckett : You can dig all you want, Castle. My secrets are safe with her.

  Richard Castle : How can you be sure?

  Kate Beckett : Because whatever she knows about me, I know worse about her. We used to hang out, big group of us, had a good time.

  Richard Castle : And... what's a good time?

  Kate Beckett : Well, if you don't know by now, I'm sure it's too late to show you one.

• Richard Castle : Did you... always... have sex in the restaurant?

  Sandra Meyers : Well, Wolf did his best work in the kitchen.

  [Beckett kicks him under the table] 

  Richard Castle : [whispers]  Ow.

  Kate Beckett : And your husband never suspected?

  Sandra Meyers : When he's not working nights at the ER, he's conked out on sleeping pills. I could shoot porn in my living room, he'd have no idea.

  [pauses] 

  Sandra Meyers : Are you gonna tell my husband?

  Kate Beckett : You're the primary suspect in a murder investigation. Your husband is the least of your worries.

• Richard Castle : I'm just saying, you could've been more civilized and allowed us to finish our meal.

  [Beckett stops him as he moves to follow her into the interrogation room] 

  Kate Beckett : Uh-uh. You can watch from the observation room.

  Richard Castle : And now... And now you're benching me?

  Kate Beckett : [quietly]  You were just giggling over the risotto with our suspect!

  Richard Castle : [frustrated, he moves towards the observation room]  Which was to die for, by the way!

• Jennifer Wong : [on video from Kitchen Wars, playing on a laptop]  He stole that recipe from me! I swear to God, if Wolf wins, I'm gonna kill that son of a bitch.

  Kate Beckett : [closes laptop]  Sounds like you and Mr. Wolf had quite the rivalry.

  Jennifer Wong : What about it?

  Richard Castle : Oh, come on. Had to be difficult, watching him walk away with that $100,000 prize, not to mention the publicity and fame that catapulted his career.

  Kate Beckett : And it's not hard to believe that the resentment was building up over the past couple of months until the pressure finally put you over the edge.

  Jennifer Wong : Wait, you think I killed him? That rivalry between Wolf and me... it was just an act.

  Richard Castle : An act?

  Kate Beckett : I thought "Kitchen Wars" was a reality show.

  Jennifer Wong : Emphasis on "show." And win or lose, you want people to remember your name when it's over. That's how you build your brand.

  Richard Castle : And who doesn't remember a great villain?

  Jennifer Wong : Exactly. Hey, we made for great TV. Why do you think they kept us on until the final two?

• Kate Beckett : It's not my job to judge. I'm just here to get the truth.

• Kate Beckett : Why would he go all the way to the Upper East Side just to sit there alone?

  Richard Castle : Maybe he had a rendevous with destiny, and it stood him up.

• Richard Castle : You realize Madison and I weren't halfway through our tasting menus when you stomped in there like the fun police.

  Kate Beckett : What part of her being a suspect in a murder investigation do you not get?

• [last lines] 

  Kate Beckett : Yeah. So, I take it that you're swamped.

  Madison Queller : Always. Why?

  Kate Beckett : I thought that we could get a drink and catch up.

  Madison Queller : That'd be great. Apparently, we have a lot of catching up to do.
