We did have something completely new this week - Death by Balsamic Vinegar. A rather strange way to go, all things considered, when a normally harmless food combines with medication to give the consumer a heart attack. It would be news-worthy, even if the victim had not been a famous late-night talk show host.
Good thing the man was famous - it made tracking his movements the night before his death much easier. Someone twittered that they saw him driving his awesome car into a parking garage. I guess there are even more things to worry about when you commit murder...especially when you are going up against televised cops. They are the scariest, and they are like the Mounties. They always get their man...eventually.
Following the last moments of the victim made me feel quite sad for him. Despite having had a slew of wives who never lasted more than half-a-dozen years, the one women he always went to talk to when he was feeling down, when he needed support, was his first wife. He was a philanderer, but she was always there for him, would always be there for him. The best friend he had.
A better friend than the man he was in Vietnam with who ended up killing him. One man betrays his friend by planning to replace him on his show, the other man gets vengeance by killing the first man. That's friendship for you! No one ends up being happy.
But don't worry, we still got a lot of laughs. Watching Castle be seduced by a beautiful young actress who wanted to play the roll of Nikki Heat in the upcoming film was very sexy. Watching Beckett (Stana Katic) get a little bit jealous, until she realized the woman had an ulterior motive, was even better.
I can't wait to see the next chapter
