Castle: “Law & Boarder”
(Episode 6.21)

On Castle, many of the victims have a troubled past life that, like many things behind us, cannot fully disappear no matter how badly we may want them to. This week, a professional skateboarder, Logan Moore, on his way to being the next Tony Hawk is murdered, and it seems like someone in his spotty past is to blame. But in the end we discover that a decision he once made haunted him, and he was killed trying to right a six year-old wrong.
When Caskett shows up at the crime scene—with Beckett rocking the most fabulous high ponytail ever—she and Dr. Parrish jump up and down in glee as they discuss the maid of honor dress, which Parrish will be proudly wearing. Naturally, that sends Esposito and Ryan into a tizzy over who will be Castle’s best man. They spend the entire episode sucking up, only to discover that Castle has already chosen his daughter to stand by him in the ceremony. Meanwhile, they go through a couple of suspects in Logan’s murder (including a rival skater, and Ross a super rich kid who’s been hanging with the skater crowd), and learn that the CEO of the big fancy skater movement had his gun stolen from his office (presumably by Logan). At first, they think it’s all connected to the big bad, AKA the Albanian mob (dun, dun, duuun). Logan had helped put his mother’s boyfriend, Enver Kotta, behind bars years ago (along with his mother), but Kotta had since been released. Although he was one of the last people to see Logan alive, he insists they met up in a moment of reconciliation. Kotta is, apparently, one of few men to have actually been rehabilitated in prison and went to Logan seeking forgiveness for getting his mother involved in his drug/murder/mob-related shenanigans. Logan, however, wanted three thousand dollars. Learning this, Castle and Beckett know something’s up—it’s pretty much always a bad sign when someone puts an actual dollar amount on the price of forgiveness.
For a moment, it seems like Logan might have been stealing things. They find his duffle bag full of magic, thievery tools (glass cutters and such), but then they discover a connection to the gang of super rich kids that Logan had been hanging out with. The three thousand dollars was to pay off one of the fellas, Carter Wexland, to help him break into a law office. Logan had said that he was planning to avenge a friend’s death. Things get even more interesting when Castle and Beckett show up at the law office and get shut down and shut out by the lawyer who was the victim of Logan’s breaking and entering job.
