A Singer With No Place To Turn Uses Veiled Lyrics In Her Last Song To Point To Her Killer

By:


These "snapshots" cover the third three episodes during season two of the popular television series "Castle".

Famous Last Words - 4 Stars (Excellent)

An up-and-coming, drug-addicted singer leaves her band to get clean and go solo. She is befriended and taken in by a husband/wife record-producing couple, only to suddenly leave, suggesting a possible relapse. She turns up with a broken neck, hanging upside down on a fire escape in a staged murder.

Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic) and mystery writer Rick Castle (Nathan Fillion) pursue a lot of suspects. Among them are a fan that was a stalker with a restraining order, and a guitarist in her former band with a history of violence against women. Also the former manager of the band who used drugs to manipulate the band members, and the record producer wife who had a motive and the opportunity as well as a lot of circumstantial evidence to suggest her guilt.

Beckett and Castle learn that the victim feared for her life, and bought a gun from a drug dealer for protection. What drove her fear? With no place to go and no one to talk to, the singer is reduced to writing some veiled lyrics in her last song that point to her killer. Once again, it is Castle who appears to unravel the mystery in this Episode 7 of Season 2.

Bonus: Castle's daughter Alexis (Molly Quinn) plays an indirect but prominent role in helping to unmask the killer. See why she gets involved in this case, and how her insight helps nail the murderer.

Kill the Messenger - 4 Stars (Excellent)

When a family is extremely wealthy, the members have as many secrets as they do money. Such is the case of the Wellesley family of New York. A 30-year-old secret comes to light when a bike messenger is killed making a delivery to NYPD Captain Roy Montgomery (Ruben Santiago-Hudson), but why?

The package was stolen by the killer, who ran down the messenger en route. The sender of the package had been in prison for 10 years. He was killed in prison 45 minutes after instructing a relative to send the package. Detective Kate Beckett and mystery writer Rick Castle discover the prisoner was silenced because of evidence in the package that could incriminate the Wellesleys.

Worse yet, the prisoner had confessed to a murder and had served 10 years in prison for a crime he did not commit. But why? Things become even more bizarre when an exhumed grave turns up a coffin without a body. In the end, the crack detective team solves 3 murders in 1, scoring a "hat trick" and perhaps setting a precinct record for production is this Episode 8 of Season 2.

Bonus: See Castle's mother, Martha Rodgers (Susan Sullivan), create a MySpace social media account with the help of her granddaughter Alexis (Molly Quinn), and hook up with her high school sweetheart (both post pictures of themselves when they were much younger).

Love Me Dead - 4 Stars (Excellent)

Whenever a professional is on top of his game and on top of the world, he gets to thinking that he is above the law. Not that that would have anything to do with a crack district attorney getting thrown off the road of a parking garage when he does not even own a vehicle. Millions of people who live in the Big Apple do not own vehicles - that is why they have taxis and a subway system.

But killing an officer of the law is not only not cool, it is just plain stupid. When you kill a cop, every police officer within miles is on the case 24/7 until it is solved, and that includes Detective Kate Beckett and mystery writer Rick Castle in this Episode 9 of Season 2.

NYPD's finest murder-solving team wade their way through suspects that include a street-wise thug, a brother-in-law, a felon turned locksmith, a preacher, a former pimp, and a call girl before solving this murder, which has enough twists to make a crooked road look anything but straight. And the guilty party? A master manipulator. This episode is a very complex tale of betrayal.

Bonus: Castle goes crazy when his daughter Alexis seeks the advice of Kate Beckett in a matter so personal she cannot confide in her cool dad. Watch Beckett play Castle like a concert violinist as he seeks to find out the secret.

These third three episodes of season two find the strong personalities of Rick Castle and Kate Beckett unyielding. While both of them are becoming more attracted to each other, neither will openly admit their affection.
