This episode opens with a bride-to-be (played by Alyssa Milano) finding one of her bridesmaid's dead stuffed into the armoire in her hotel room. Cut too, Alexis taping Castle to a chair because he wants to get into the character of Nicky Heat and figure out how she would get out of the situation. Of course as soon as Alexis and her grandmother, Martha, leave the apartment Beckett calls.
While Beckett and her team start to investigate the murder, Castle uses the garbage foot peddle to yank the tape off of his mouth by catching a piece on the lid and lifting the top. So funny, I was laughing out loud.
This is the first time that the show has made it clear that they intend to show a romantic connection between Beckett and Castle.
I love the writing and the banter between Esposito and Ryan (played masterfully by Jon Huertas and Seamus Dever). The one thing I did miss in this episode was the familial interaction between Castle and Alexis. It was cute at the beginning of the episode, but she wasn't seen again for the remainder. Alyssa Milano an Nathan Fillion were great together, making me miss the days of Alyssa on television.
I've been anticipating the return of this series since before the holidays. I LOVE, LOVE LOVE, this show. This was probably the weakest of the shows so far, but I still Love it.
