Your throat feel any better?

Oh, why'd I have to get mono?

Well, it's called "The kissing disease" For a reason.

I assume you and max were... I'm going to stop right there.

I think that's best.

Make you some tea.

Sorry about this.

I know this wasn't what you expected

When you asked to stay here

While your place was being fumigated.

Alexis was supposed to be going to paris with her mother.

It's fine.

Mm. Okay. Well...

I'll get it.

If you wanted to stay in a hotel,

I would completely underst-- no.

I'm not gonna leave you just 'cause your daughter's sick.

Richard.

I am gonna make this up to you in so many ways.

Richard.

What?

Your ex-wife is here.

Meredith? - Mom?

Hello, kitten.

Uh, what...what are you doing here?

Alexis.

Oh, my poor baby.

Aren't you supposed to be in paris?

Not without my daughter.

And since you can't go to paris,

I'm bringing paris to you...

French pastries and "Funny face."

We can enjoy them as I nurse you back to health.

Meredith, how...why...

Why so much luggage?

I cannot believe that you are actually

Letting your ex-wife stay with you, with us.

What was I supposed to do, stick her in a hotel?

Yes.

Look, I get her taking care of alexis.

But staying at your place?

Okay, wait. Hang on.

I turned to you, I said, "Is it all right with you?"

And then you said "Yes."

What am I supposed to say?

Everyone is looking at me.

I'm not meant to be the bad guy in this case.

You are.

Besides, I gave you the look.

What look? - The look look.

My look.

Please don't tell me, after four years,

You don't actually know the look.

You gotta understand...

You know what? I'm not talking about this right now.

Good morning, lanie.

Not from the way you sound. What's wrong?

Men are clueless.

Men or just Castle?

Well, no matter how miserable your day is,

it's not as bad as Michelle Twohey's.

She took an ice pick to the side of the neck.

Michelle Twohey,

the divorce lawyer for the rich and famous?

Isn't she the one that only represented women?

And strikes fear into the heart of many a soon-to-be ex-husband.

There's something else. When I got here,

she had a piece of paper clutched in her hand

with a name and an address. Ryan.

The name on the paper is "R. Garrison."

It's a Scarsdale address,

but it's not in our victim's contact numbers.

Yo, there's a night clerk around the corner

who saw a man fleeing the scene at 11:45 p.m.

Suspect ducked into that subway entrance over there.

We're pulling video from the security cameras,

and the clerk's gonna sit with a sketch artist.

What about the victim's family?

Not anyone local.

Her office gave me the boyfriend's number.

A guy named Corey Francis.

Okay, you guys see how R. Garrison figures into this.

Castle and I will take the boyfriend.

So, Corey,

how long had you and Michelle been dating?

Oh, less than a month.

I don't know. We met, we just...

It was like magic.

When was the last time you spoke with her?

Over the weekend.

She was in the middle of a divorce case.

I'm sure in her line of work, she made a lot of enemies.

Was there anyone in particular giving her trouble?

I don't know.

Her cases involved big money,

big egos, but...

she was just doing her job. She didn't deserve this.

We had a witness who saw somebody

running away from the crime scene.

Do you recognize this man?

No. He...he doesn't look familiar.

We found a Scarsdale address on her.

Does the name R. Garrison sound familiar?

No.

No, I-I never heard her mention it.

Man. Look at this place.

Eh. It's all right.

Are you kidding me? - What?

It has always been a dream of mine

to come home to a house like this.

Screw the house.

It's always been a dream of mine...

to come home to a woman like that.

Right.

Until, of course, things got serious,

which is when you'd dump her

and start looking for your next dream woman.

NYPD, ma'am.

I'm detective Ryan. This is detective Esposito.

Just call me Javier.

Is there an R. Garrison here?

Yes, that's my husband Rob.

Come on in.

Hear that? "Husband"...

And suspect. - Yeah.

No, we've actually never met.

Do you have any idea why she had your name and address on her?

Well, I gave it to her last night when I spoke with her.

I'm a forensic accountant. It's mostly bankruptcies.

But I do a lot of consulting for divorce attorneys.

So Ms. Twohey called me up, out of the blue,

and wanted to meet and go over some financial issues.

Whose financial issues, her own?

She didn't say.

But I recognized her name and I knew her reputation,

so I assumed it was about one of her clients.

It was an odd conversation, though.

Odd? How do you mean?

Well, she insisted on meeting today.

So whatever the issues were,

Ms. Twohey was a bit frantic about getting them resolved quickly.

Hmm. Look, if that meeting was about a client,

then we gotta find out which one.

So head down to her office

and see what cases she was working on.

And you know what? Since Michelle only represented women,

see if any of the men she went up against threatened her.

Yeah, men are known to do stupid things

when it comes to their ex-wives.

Okay.

Thank you.

Hey. I'll get that for you.

That's okay. I got it.

So just to let you know,

I'm real sorry about that whole Meredith thing,

But I am going to... take care of it.

Beckett.

Yeah. Okay. We'll be right there.

Lanie's got something for us.

You go deal with that. I'm gonna go deal with...

The other thing.

Take care of it.

No. You've gotta take care of it.

This is Meredith we're talking about--

The deep-fried twinkie that Castle has ex-sex with

whenever she rolls into town.

Lanie.

Look, I trust him.

He's not gonna have sex with her.

Fine.

Let's say it isn't about sex.

It's about boundaries.

Meredith is marking her territory.

You can't just let her waltz in and out whenever she pleases.

He's in a catch-22. Alexis is sick--

Doesn't matter.

This is a war, girl, and guess who's losing.

I don't know.

Maybe you're right.

Maybe I'm right? Of course I'm right.

Lanie, I didn't come down here to talk about this.

You said that you have something case related.

Yes. Are you ready for some good news now?

That would be nice.

I processed the victim's clothing

and found trace amounts of someone else's blood

on her jacket button.

Which means our killer could've gotten cut during the attack.

I'm running D.N.A. now.

I'll call you when I got something.

Thank you.

So each one of Michelle's employees at her law firm

alibied out.

But they all said she'd been acting odd during the past few weeks.

They assumed it had to do with a case.

Which case?

Pick one.
