Penny Johnson Jerald: Captain Victoria Gates
Quotes
-
Captain Victoria Gates : You're telling me Eric Chambers is not our shooter? Based on what?
Kevin Ryan : Physics, sir.
Kate Beckett : Congressman Lopez said that when he talked to Carolyn Decker, he saw Chambers by the far wall.
Kevin Ryan : Which is where CSU found his prints.
Richard Castle : Seconds later, our assassin opens fire. Three shots.
Kevin Ryan : The first one strikes Lopez beneath the left clavicle.
Kate Beckett : The second one grazes Carolyn Decker's shoulder and then the third one strikes her in the upper back.
Kevin Ryan : That shot severs her pulmonary artery. She never has a chance.
Captain Victoria Gates : How does any of this lead you to think that Chambers is not the assassin?
Richard Castle : Chambers' vantage point. He had a side-angle view of Lopez and Carolyn Decker.
Kevin Ryan : So, how did Chambers manage to shoot Carolyn in the back? The answer is that he couldn't have. Not unless that bullet magically took a hard right turn in mid-air.
Richard Castle : Which means the shots were fired from the grassy knoll. Metaphorically speaking.
Captain Victoria Gates : Detective Beckett, do you actually find any of this plausible?
Kate Beckett : Yes, sir. Plausible enough that I'm getting Ballistics to re-evaluate the crime scene.
