Lockwood tells Montgomery to hand Beckett over to him; initially, he asks Beckett to meet him, but he does this to inform Beckett of the situation and gets Castle to drag her away and leave Montgomery to face Lockwood and his men off by himself, despite Beckett's pleas that he does not need to put himself in this situation because she forgives him. Hurt by this, Castle reaches out to his ex-wife Gina. Castle explains this, believing that he's gracefully stepping aside, but this crushes Kate, who waited too long and took an emotional risk for nothing. He is always ready with a sardonic comment to keep Beckett on her toes and enjoys the way Castle riles her. Beckett then resigns, and Esposito refuses to talk to Ryan, just walking away as he tries to explain. Ryan and Esposito's platonic "bromance" somewhat mirrors Castle and Beckett's romantic struggles. Castle's resistance evaporated and he let his guard down. Castle fans are still reeling years after the show's cancellation. The scam worked until an undercover FBI agent was accidentally killed during the attempted abduction of mobster Joe Pulgatti. As Castle tries to make it up to her, he is inadvertently pulled back in by the suspect Beckett was looking for, only for the suspect to die. In Knockdown, episode 3.13, Beckett tells Castle Josh is in Africa "saving the world" and that he does not know about her homemade murder board of her mother's murder that she keeps hidden in her apartment. They hope to attend Stanford University together, but while Ashley gains admittance, Alexis fails in her attempt to apply for early admittance, which distresses her greatly. In Murder, He Wrote, Lanie tells both Esposito and Ryan while they are investigating who Beckett'snew boyfriend is, that Josh has been in the Amazon setting up free clinics for the last year. Unfortunately, Ryan does not pass, which leads to conflict and jealously with Esposito, who did pass. However, the flirtation is now two-way, and there are signs that she sees Castle as more than just a friend. Castle tells her that since she doesn't want their engagement to be announced, those kinds of rumors are bound to happen. When an analyst in the attorney general's office discovers a redacted document called "Loksat" mentioning Bracken and passes it to Beckett's former A.G. team, the partner has the team killed, setting off an explosive chain of events that leads to Beckett and Castle visiting Bracken in prison separately. In "Knockdown", Castle and Beckett finally kiss for the first time. Beckett is annoyed and amused that he can't put aside his obsession with solving cases for their romantic getaway, but as time goes on, she is similarly drawn in. On live television, Bracken is led to a police car and taken into custody, to Beckett's relief. He is an Australian businessman who now lives in the United States. He is intrigued by this new window into crime and murder, and uses his connection with the mayor to charm his way into shadowing Detective Kate . Unknown to Castle, Beckett has re-examined her feelings for him. In "Dial M for Mayor", she encourages Beckett to perform her duties objectively and dispassionately, stating her attitude in IA and Homicide was not because she hated police officers but because she works hard to hold people accountable so NYPD officers like her father, uncle, and subordinates can bear the cost of serving the people of New York free of corruption. At the end of the episode, thanks to the influence of a politician, Beckett is reinstated back at the NYPD and Beckett explains that Police Commissioner knows about their engagement, and they are okay so long as the two remain professional at work. In "Swan Song", a documentary film crew catches the two in a romantic moment, but Beckett is able to convince the producers to delete the film before it's sent to Gates. Despite Bracken's death effectively avenging Johanna's murder, Beckett becomes obsessed with hunting down Loksat, who ultimately proves to be a man named Mason Wood. She was angry and hurt and requested that he ends their relationship. In season four, however, Alexis's relationship with Beckett cools since she feels that the detective does not give her father the respect and involvement he deserves from her. However, in recent episodes, Gates seemed to, at least, tolerate Castle ideas, knowing even though he has some outlandish ideas, she cannot argue with the results that Detectives attain. Unlike with her last boyfriend, detective Tom Demming, this relationship takes not only Castle, but all of Beckett's colleagues at the precinct by surprise, since she never mentioned having a boyfriend prior to Josh's showing up at the precinct . But it's too late: Castle has already planned to go to the Hamptons with another woman: Gina, his ex-wife, with whom he's rekindled a relationship. As a friend of Beckett's, she is one of the few people Beckett can talk to easily and without reservations. She was also involved with Castle sexually. Maddox wanted to recover the files that Montgomery had sent Smith as his employer no longer wanted to live blackmailed. When Jerry Tyson comes back, Gates reluctantly allows Castle to help, specifying that it will just one time. He and Siobhan reconcile and she leaves for witness protection, then he learns his wife is pregnant. Castle replies that she should have just followed what the heart wanted since things would have turned out well for them as the former playboy turned out to have been planning a proposal before he died. However, after the events of "Always" his view softened, and he now argues that the first four seasons can be seen as a prologue to the interesting fireworks that come from a relationship between two such different people. Having graduated from New York City's prestigious Stuyvesant High School and Stanford University, she is a first-class investigator who has gained a reputation as a detective who is intrigued by unusual cases, although she is also known for her ability to empathize with the victims of violent crimes. However, Beckett manages to give Castle the information needed to catch the killer, showing she still believed in the NYPD and Castle. Though they arrested the real killer who wanted to emulate Tyson, Ryan discovered that the plastic surgeon, Kelly Nieman (Annie Wersching), responsible for the look-a-likes' appearances was a prison doctor at the same time Tyson was admitted and resigned the day he escaped, and thus, she is suspected of being Tyson's girlfriend. He confides to Castle that he enjoys stalking his victims and planning their deaths more than actually killing them, and it is implied that when he leaves New York, he adopts the persona of another serial killer and carries out a new series of crimes under a different identity. When her life is threatened, he goes back undercover and brings down mobsters he knew once. Beckett eventually, under advice from her father, decides to take the job since it is what she knows she wants. However, their relationship was common knowledge to the other characters, who were playing along out of respect for their privacy, and in the episode "Lucky Stiff", Ryan tells Esposito that everyone knows about the relationship. He is shown to have more than a few quirks, such as eating lunch off of his autopsy tablesreasoning that the disinfectants used in the morgue mean that it is actually "the cleanest room in the city"and always has a sarcastic remark. In the season six episode "Veritas", when Bracken learns that Beckett has been carrying out discreet surveillance of Vulcan Simmons, he realizes that she was bluffing when she claimed to have physical evidence during the events of "After the Storm" and arranges for Simmons's murder, planning to implicate Beckett in the crime in order to discredit her. Unfortunately, this does cause a slight rift with their friends, but they all eventually still congratulate the couple. The two's new romance at the 12th Precinct, however, is far more complicated. Castle and Demming often had a rivalry and tried to outdo each other for Beckett's attention. Beckett predicts that the next time they meet, all bets are off. With Bracken turning his attention to the presidency, he has Maddox try to retrieve Montgomery's evidence before going after Beckett. As "Castle".
