Quotes 

• Kevin Ryan : Our baby's due in a month, and I can't stop it. What if I'm really not ready?

  Javier Esposito : Well, you're not ready.

  Kevin Ryan : What?

  Javier Esposito : Nobody is. Look, being a dad is like being a cop. Doesn't matter what they teach you in the Academy, you learn on the streets. You did okay with that, right?

  Kevin Ryan : Uh, my first day, I was so nervous, I rear-ended a SWAT van and ten guys in vests poured out, ready to take me down with extreme prejudice.

  Javier Esposito : Well... you care. That already makes you a hundred times better than the dad I had.

• [Castle and Beckett enter the precinct dead on their feet after taking care of Cosmo all night] 

  Kevin Ryan : Whoa! You two look like you got hit by the milk truck.

  Richard Castle : You see this face? This is the face of your future.

  Javier Esposito : That bad, huh?

  Richard Castle : No, no, no. We slept like babies.

  Kate Beckett : Yeah, up every hour.

• Kevin Ryan : Guy takes off for work at ten p.m. but never arrives. And then at 6:45 the next morning, he shows up shot to death at a church, holding somebody else's baby. What the hell happened during those eight hours?

• Richard Castle : So, it's a tale of betrayal and revenge. Cameron abandons his partner, Jimmy, when the heat comes down, leaving him to take the fall. Ridden with remorse, Cameron tries to put it all behind him, start his life anew. But, surprise, surprise, Jimmy made parole after spending seven long years thinking of ways to make his old partner pay.

  Kevin Ryan : No wonder Cameron was adding locks.

  Richard Castle : He didn't want to tell his wife about it because he didn't want her to know about his criminal past.

  Kate Beckett : That's a great theory, Castle. Except where did the baby come from?

  Richard Castle : Ah. Maybe...

  [thinks for a bit] 

  Richard Castle : Nope, I got nothing.
