Quotes[]
- Ryan: No, you may not. And rather than pick a name for my kid, you should pick a date for your wedding.
- Castle: Pick a date for my wedding? I was planning on bringing her. (looking to Beckett)
- Beckett: Really. When is that? I might have plans.
- Esposito (to Ryan): "Javier"? You're going to name a white, Irish kid "Javier"?
- Ryan: What? You gonna bust on me now for being sentimental?
- Esposito: I figure it's my last chance. (Ryan laughs)
- Jenny: Kevin! You're alive.
- Lanie (to Esposito): Javi! (Run to hug him) Thank God. (Ryan climbs in the ambulance and kisses Jenny as Castle and Beckett hug)
- Ryan (gasps when he sees his baby daughter): You're both beautiful.
- Jenny: Kevin, I'd like you to meet Sarah Grace.

Trivia[]
- Lanie helps Jenny deliver (offscreen) baby Sarah Grace Ryan in the back of an ambulance while Kevin Ryan was in the burning building.
- Both Captain Gates and Castle figure out how the arsonist had a secret escape route from the sub-basement.
- In this episode, Ryan's daughter is born who is named Sarah Grace after Jenny's grandmother. We also know that if the baby would have been a boy he would have been named Javier as a dedication for Esposito from Ryan displaying that he is grateful for Epositos' loyalty and commitment to their partnership.
- The moment Beckett casually says that she will not ask him how he could possibly know about the pyrophilia obsession, Castle suddenly breaks the 4th wall.
