ABC’s ‘Castle’ season 5 finale spoilers: ‘Watershed’ sneak peeks, Beckett’s secret
If there is one piece of advice that we give you before checking out some of the sneak peeks below from Monday night’s “Castle” finale, it’s to hug something very close, like a puppy or your mom. Are Castle and Beckett going to be actually be over? We can’t answer that just yet, but she does something to him that’s far worse than him just not paying enough attention to her while playing video games.
If you remember from last week, Beckett found out about a job opportunity in Washington DC thanks to some of her detective skills (which are indeed superior). Given that it is a chance to get some more interesting work and probably make more money, of course she’s interested in the job! This leads to a job interview, and Beckett tying back her hair even more so than usual.
Sadly for Beckett, there is one dramatic oversight with her plan: That you know, there is a guy who loves and cares for her. Does he have a problem with opening up and committing? Sure, but you haven’t fully explained your issues to him. Not only that, but you don’t tell him about this interview a few episodes after he helps to save your life and is there with you while you are nearly are blown up by a bomb. To be frank, her sudden choice to blow him off when it comes to this news feels a little strange.
Finally, we turn to a video that we may or may not be putting right into the timeline (mostly because there’s no context for it): Beckett has a confession that she needs to make to Castle. What is it? We’ve heard the talk about her maybe being pregnant, but we don’t think that’s likely because 1) she would probably not talk about having a secret to Ryan and Esposito before Castle (even if she does not disclose it) if that was a case, and 2) this feels too similar to Booth and Brennan having a kid before they were married.
There are some other great moments for Beckett that are referenced here, so be sure to find out more about them! We will also have some more scoop on the “Castle” finale in the morning, so stay tuned.

The name of the show is Castle not Beckett. Way too much time is given over to her and her insecurities ? Its boring and repetitive.
Castle should dump Kate and move on. She’s too much trouble and too fickle and shallow to make a relationship work. How could she not know if her feelings for Rick ” are real ” ? Hello ! This is ridiculous. Where has she been for the last 5 years.
Move on Castle, she’s not worth it.

In defense for Kate’s character, maybe she has her misgivings with regards to Richard being Mr. Right. He hasn’t been all that and a bag of potato chips too. Is he as affectionate as Kate would like him to be? I got the feeling he was happy with the status quo in their relationship when Kate wanted more, something other than what she was getting from him.
Maybe it is Kate who should be entertaining thoughts about “moving on”. And not Richard as Meredith suggests.
However, are they really right for each other? Why would they flaunt their romantic involvements in front or each other in the first place? What perverse message is in their doing this to one another? Isn’t this being insensitive to the other person and a slap in the face. As if to say,
“See I don’t need you in my life. I can find my dalliances with others to while away my time — my life.”
And if they do these things to intentionally make the other jealous, isn’t this being childish? What kind of caring and loving relationship would come from two who like to taunt each other as they’ve done in the past?
Kate should move on, they need the break from each other to sort things out. Maybe Kate will realize she has lost her edge without having Richard around. Maybe their bond isn’t in the form of marriage but in solving murder mysteries together.
Still, it’s hard to see genius at work when it comes to solving mysteries when they seem to have a hard time putting one foot in front of the other in daily matters; handling personal relationships.
But we all fall short in this regard, don’t we. So then why do we expect more from them. Simply said, we want them to be happily together and in love. Perhaps it is our vicarious thrill and wish we have for ourselves — to find happiness and love.

I don’t usually post thoughts but I think Castle is closing the door. Beckett is a professional and should be able to make decisions. Castle told Alex she could have a long distance relationship. I know this is just a show but Castle writers have really been making him selfish lately.
