Castle Season 5, Episode 2: Cloudy with a Chance of Murder


When a local weather girl is murdered, the first thought is her competition, but when that falls through, the gang will have to follow a tangled thread to find the killer. Espo and Ryan find themselves in the spotlight as they try to bring in a basketball player for questioning, while Castle and Beckett learn there might have been more to the busty weather girl than everyone thought.

As Castle and Beckett try to keep their relationship a secret, they decide to be single in public. This leads to Castle accepting a date with a reporter, much to Kate’s annoyance, and when things go wrong and Kate finds Castle with the reporter’s boobs in his face, their burgeoning romance might be torn apart before it has a chance.

My Thoughts:

I do love how casket is holding on to the thread of their deception with all for fists, and still things seem to be slipping through their fingers. It should be really interesting to see how they hold up when Alexis and Martha come back into Castle’s everyday life. On a related note: it’s always sad when there’s no Alexis or Martha in an episode.

The fact that Castle has a date with Nash Bridges Daughter is remarkably funny to me. I have a feeling Nash wouldn’t approve. Maybe that’s what it is. Either way, I’ve never found her particularly hot, so I was never particularly worried about her being a temptation for Castle to cheat.

I’m happy the writes found a manly way for Espo and Honeymilk to rekindle their bromance. It was really depressing to see them fight. And though John Huertas does the “I’m so pissed off I can’t even look at you” face remarkably well, and Seamus Deaver has the sad puppy dog down pat. I’ll be really happy to see them back into their normal routine after this little spat.
