Tonight is an all new episode of Castle, titled, Dial M For Mayor. This one appears to be the episode that could quite possibly drive a wedge between our dynamic duo, Rick Castle and Kate Beckett.

When a dead woman ends up in the Mayor’s car, Kate does the obvious and suspects the Mayor. Rick, however, is biased and doesn’t think his friend would do such a thing.

We all know that the entire reason that Rick is working with the precinct and with Kate is because of his affiliation with the Mayor, so this could be the end of Caskett….or could it?

Synopsis:

“Derek Webster (Desperate Housewives, Damages) guest stars as Mayor Robert Weldon, Castle’s longtime friend and the Mayor of New York City. It was Mayor Weldon’s political clout that allowed Castle to partner up with Beckett. But now a woman is found dead in a car that traces back to the mayor’s motor pool, and that partnership comes under fire as the scandal surrounding the investigation .

Castle’s creator, Andrew W, Marlowe, said, “The stakes are enormous. If something happens to the mayor, Castle is not going to be able to continue his partnership with Beckett.”

Captain Gates also wants to keep Castle as far away from the case as possible, because he obviously cannot be objective at all. She tells Beckett to confront the mayor and do her job, no matter the cost.

Stana Katic said, “It’s a conflicted case for Beckett. She knows that the mayor is valuable in keeping Castle in the precinct, but at the same time she doesn’t want anyone who’s committed murder to get away with it. She won’t compromise her sense of right and wrong.”

Stay tuned, we’ll be providing our official recap when the show airs at 10PM EST on ABC, right after The Bachelor.
