ABC’s ‘Castle’ season 7 spoilers: More on Dr. Kelly Nieman’s return

Castle -Is 3XK still out there on “Castle“? As much fun as we have speculating on Jerry Tyson as a character, there is actually not any confirmation still that this man is actually still out there.

What we can at least say with some confidence is that we’re going to be seeing one of his famed protegees very soon: Dr. Kelly Nieman. This is a woman who has seemingly some sort of tie to man, and the last time we saw her on the show, she took off the moment that she started to realize just how big of a suspect she really was.

So how will Annie Wersching’s character factor into the story that we are going to see next year? We’ve already heard that she will tie into the two-part episode coming in February, as showrunner David Amann said the following in a chat with Entertainment Weekly:

“There’s a murder that our cops are investigating at the beginning of the episode that seems to connect to her … That puts us on what we think is going to be a fun, dramatic journey for the audience as we try to solve that murder and figure out what her involvement is in it, if any.”

We feel like this is going to be a really important story to the future of the show, and one that should also be a thrill to watch at the same time. The question is, will we actually see 3XK at some point in this? By the time this series is over, whenever that may be, this is something that has to be addressed.
