Season Five has come to a close with “Watershed”, a finale centered around opportunities and big life changes. Changes big enough to make your jaw drop. So let’s get to it. Time to talk Castle.
Caskett – Forever or No More? Beckett went ahead and interviewed for the ama ing opportunity in DC but felt the need to hide it from everyone. It may make sense to hide it at work until you have a decision, but not from the man you are in a relationship with.
After Castle found out, he made an excellent point. She didn’t care enough to include him in the decision of interviewing for this job. That stings worse than anything else. But on the other hand, Beckett has to think of her career, especially when she is in a relationship that she has no idea where it’s going.
Beckett nails her interview and gets a glowing recommendation from Gates. She meets with her father who asks her what she really wants, where she admits…it’s the job.
At the same time, Castle shares a touching scene with Mama Martha where she lets her son know Beckett deserves this but she needs to know where things are going. So what should Castle do next?
After being offered the job, Kate and Rick meet on the swings, an important place in their relationship. Castle admits that he wants more and they both deserve more. So, does that mean breakup? NOPE!! It means our very own Rick Castle down on one knee proposing marriage. I never thought I’d see the day!
Big kudos to the writers on pulling this off. Long time viewers had to know that this would come at some point..but at the swings? Seriously, how romantic.
It didn’t feel forced. This next step felt extremely natural, which is something the writers have been able to pull off all season.
So, what next? We didn’t get to see an answer from Beckett and we know she wants the job. There’s no way she can leave NYC…it’s just not practical for the show. But will she stick around and end up resenting Castle? Looks like we have to wait until next season to find out. One thing is for sure, I’m definitely on team Mr. & Mrs. Caskett.
Side Notes.
- Gotta love the close friendship between Espo and Beckett. He’s always had her back and he was able to recogni e something is up. How will he take it if Beckett decides to leave?
- Alexis is heading to Costa Rica for 6 weeks for a school trip. I’m pretty sure everyone can relate to Castle in not wanting to have his daughter out of the country again…Paris anyone?
- Girl time!! Lanie and Beckett finally had some necessary BFF time. Can we make a deal that this happens more next season?
- Daddy to be!! Ryan drops the bomb on his best bud that him and the mrs. are finally expecting a baby. Anyone else agree that Ryan will be one ama ing father?
So, what did you think? Did the finale live up to the expectations of the season or did it fall flat? The hour was pretty slow until those last few minutes, right? Will Beckett go to DC or stay in NYC? Will she accept Castle’s proposal? So many questions and no answers for a few months!
Hit up the comments and sound off on the hour. Did you love it or no? Will you be able to wait till September to find out Kate’s answer? I don’t think I can!!
