Quotes[]
- Beckett: That’s an odd way to kill.
- Castle: Not for Nazis or evil dictators.
- Castle: Alexis said she'd be in the Village today, but she's over in Williamsburg.
- Beckett: How do you know she's in Williamsburg?
- Castle: GPS tracked her phone.
- Beckett: You tracked her phone?
- Castle: Yes. Super cool app I've just downloaded. I can see where she is at any time.
- Beckett: Does she know that you're doing this?
- Castle: Are you kidding? No, she'd kill me.
- Beckett: And be justified!
- Castle: I'm her father. If something is going on, I need to know. A lot of parents would go to their kids' drawers or computers. [Castle holds up his phone] Far less intrusive.
- Ryan: Cowards die many times before their death. The valiant never taste the death but once.
- Esposito: Bro, you're not Castle.
- Ryan: I know I'm not Castle.
- Esposito: Then stop trying to talk like him.
- Ryan: I'm not allowed to reference the Bard? I'm a Renaissance man.
- Esposito: Memorizing one quote doesn't make you a Renaissance man.
- Ryan: What if I memorize two?
- Esposito: Have you memorized two?
- Ryan: No. But what if I did?
- Esposito: It depends on the quote.
- Beckett: I was thinking of sneaking off to the Angelika. Forbidden Planet's playing.
- Castle: Forbidden Planet, is, uh, is that the one with the robot?
- Beckett: You've never seen Forbidden Planet?
- Castle: More of a Star Wars, Matrix guy myself.
- Beckett: Oh, my gosh. Castle, this is the movie that inspired those two. That's it, I'm taking you. My treat.
- Castle: Oh no, no. I have, I have plans.
- Beckett: No, not anymore.
- Castle: Alright, well, can I have candy and popcorn?
- Beckett: Sure. Oh, Castle you’re gonna love this. This is Leslie Nielsen before he became a comic genius.
- Castle: Really?
- Beckett: Yeah.
- Castle: Can we stop at Remy’s for burgers after?
- Beckett: Now you’re pushing it.

Trivia[]
- The case appears to be inspired by the Chappaquiddick incident, where then-Senator Ted Kennedy crashed a car he was driving and accidentally killed a woman on his campaign team who was inside the car, Mary Jo Kopechne.
- DA Karnacki offers Captain Montgomery a drink... from a bottle of 1875 St. Miriam Rock of Scotland that Castle and Beckett recovered from The Old Haunt in "Last Call".
- Watch for: Captain Montgomery's reaction at the end, when Castle says that despite all the good he'd done, the DA would be remembered for only the one corrupt thing he did. Equally, the reaction shot of Montgomery in the booth, listening to Eddie's confession and his repetition of Stephen's assertion that "the cops would think it was a carjacking gone wrong."
- The actor Bruce Davison, who played D.A. Lou Karnacki in this episode, previously appeared with Castle star Stana Katic in The Librarian: Curse of the Judas Chalice.
- Both Castle and Beckett are fans of the film Forbidden Planet, although Castle later claims to have never seen it - possibly to prompt Becket to invite him.
- Castle can tell if Alexis is lying when she twitches her nose.
