Brief Look at Heroes & Villains

After kicking off its 4th season last week with quite a bang (the ratings were very impressive), ABC's hit show Castle returns this week with a rather unusual episode. Featuring what is probably the most gruesome murder yet (although the one in the pizza episode last season is a serious contender for the first place in this competition), "Heroes & Villains" will have Castle and Beckett diving in head first into the world of comic books and superheroes as they investigate the murder of an ex-con who was mysteriously slain in an alley. Our favorite dynamic duo believes a vigilante is behind the murder. Their main suspect, however, roams the city in a Superhero costume - and may just actually be a Superhero.

From the sneak peeks posted last week, we also know that this episode will be dealing with the fact that Alexis is excited about joining her boyfriend, Ashley, at Stanford - all the way across the country - as soon as possible. Castle is obviously not happy about that and I am willing to bet he will be struggling with this throughout the episode and will most likely seek Kate's advice on the matter.

"Heroes & Villains" will also feature the launch of Richard Castle's Deadly Storm, the official Castle graphic novel, which is already available for purchase.

  5. This case was a lot of fun which was nice considering how heavy (yet awesome) the premiere was. It was good to see Beckett and Castle teasing each other again and getting back to normal. I think the biggest moment of the episode was Beckett giving advice to that vigilante detective lady. She told her that she needed to see that she had someone who cares about her right in front of her and if she doesn't let go of the past, that past will wind up taking her future from her. I feel like Kate obviously identified with that detective (was her name Liz or am I imagining that?) and was saying aloud to her what she is thinking to herself...or is just starting to think anyway.

    I'm hoping that this season Beckett will be able to let go of her mom's case and be at peace with it even if she doesn't solve it. I'm sure Castle's attempt to divert her attention and solve the case without involving her will eventually come to light and cause some anger on her behalf, but maybe by that time she'll be ready to let it go anyway and move on with Castle at her side.
