Line 1:
{{work}}{{heartwarming}}
* The ending of "Deep In Death", when Castle finally works out how to win Beckett over after he's pissed her off by opening up her mother's murder case: {{spoiler|a heartfelt and sincere apology for opening up old wounds and betraying her trust.}}
* In "Inventing the Girl", Castle flirts with Rina, a young model who is clearly nursing something of a crush on him -- until he realizes that she's ''Kat''rina, an old babysitter of Alexis who "[[Beautiful All Along|did the ugly-duckling-became-a-swan thing]] and became a model". Castle comes in for a bit of teasing and a few disapproving comments when [[May

'''Martha:''' Oh, my son -- the big softie. And don't worry, I know you have an image to protect, your secret's safe with me. }}
** Also a bit of [[Fridge Brilliance]]: All the teasing stopped once Beckett revealed that Rina used to be Alexis's babysitter. They understand perfectly that it'll never happen and why.
Line 9:
* And again in "...Boom", where {{spoiler|Beckett's apartment has just gotten blown up.}} Ordered to go home, Beckett retorts, "I ''have'' no home!" Castle, sitting behind her, just says calmly, "Yes, you do." No argument, no long speech - just a simple statement of "Of ''course'' you're coming home with me, how could you ever think otherwise?" ''Beautiful''.
* "Den of Thieves" goes a bit more into Esposito's backstory, and involves his old partner Ike Thornton. Near the end of the episode Ike has {{spoiler|taken a bullet}} and while Esposito sits with him, he introduces Ike to his team:

** The bit where Ryan tries to follow Esposito claiming they are together "...till the wheels fall off".
* At the end of "The Third Man": {{spoiler|Beckett and Castle finally go out to eat together, and she's holding onto his arm and twirling her hair in a schoolgirl way. Which Castle had noticed previously she did when she was speaking on the phone with a guy she liked and was going to have a date with.}}
Line 25:
* The end of "Poof! You're Dead". Beckett handled Castle's {{spoiler|break up with Gina}} in the kindest, classiest way possible. What a sweetheart.
* In "Famous Last Words", we meet Skye, the bitter, jealous, drug-addicted sister of murdered rock star Haley Blue. Haley had tried to help Sky get off the drugs just like she had, but Sky had always rejected her, partly because Skye was convinced that Haley was still using. Beckett informs her that Haley was actually 100% clean at the time of her death, and later, Beckett and Castle come across Skye in her usual hangout, apparently drugged up -- but she's actually [[Going Cold Turkey|suffering withdrawal symptoms]]:
{{quote|
'''Beckett''': She's already doing it. }}
* Pretty much every single thing Castle does in "Knockdown", from bringing Beckett flowers {{spoiler|after she gets kicked off her murder case to taking down the shooter with his bare hands. Fuck yeah, Richard Castle}}. Seriously, this episode is pretty much one scene after another of Castle proving that there's nothing he wouldn't do for Beckett.
{{quote|
'''Castle:''' ''(automatically)'' Anything. }}
* The very end of "Lucky Stiff," where Castle finally figures out what Beckett would do if she won the lottery: honor the memory of her mother. So he decides to set up a scholarship trust in her mother's name. And it is [[Incredibly Lame Pun|awwwwwwww-some]].
Line 52:
* Castle and Alexis bonding over father-daughter movie time during "Demons", and the heartfelt advice he gives her over relationships and specifically about her and Ashley. Made of d'awwwwwwwww.
* [http://youtu.be/AXQM9zEZq_0 Kate getting Castle and his mother out of the bank] after the hostage situation in "Cops and Robbers". Even with Martha playing [[Moment Killer]] at the end, your heart still melts right out of your chest upon seeing the look on Beckett's face when she sees Castle face to face {{spoiler|after the explosion.}}
** Not to mention that when the police are storming the ruins of the bank, until she sees him Beckett only yells out "Castle!", making it very clear that for all the innocent people in that bank, at that particular point of time there is precisely ''one'' person who she gives a shit about. When they're reunited, well... [[The
** Martha and Castle get a nice moment when the hostages are being herded into the safety deposit box vault and there's a very real possibility ([[Like You Would Really Do It|for the characters, anyway]]) that everyone will die:
{{quote|
'''Martha:''' ''[Tearfully]'' I'm so sorry...<br />
'''Castle:''' No...<br />
Line 69:
* The last scene of "Linchpin". In this chapter and the previous one, Beckett has clearly felt disturbed after hearing that CIA agent Sophia Turner was the inspiration for a character in Derrick Storm's books, that Castle slept with Sophia and that the relationship between Castle and Sophia got screwed up as soon as they slept together. Castle later tells her that the character based out of Sophia actually ended up being more like Beckett, which is why he chose her as her muse. In the end, Beckett playfully bumps into Castle, showing that, perhaps, there is still hope for them.
* "Always". Holy hell.

'''Beckett''': {{spoiler|[[Relationship Upgrade|You]]. [''she kisses him''] I'm so sorry, Castle. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.}}
'''Castle''': What happened?
'''Beckett''': {{spoiler|[My mom's killer] got away, and I didn't care. I almost died, and all I could think about was you. I just want ''you''. [''cue [[The Big Damn Kiss]]''}}] }}
