Dr. Carter Burke : What can you tell me about your missing time?
Richard Castle : [sighs] Not much. Last thing I remember, I was driving to my wedding. A black SUV started chasing me. And I was forced off the road. Two months later, they found me in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. I had been exposed to Dengue fever, I had a bullet scar with no recollection... how I got it... No memory of anything. I tracked down a man named Jenkins who was involved somehow. He, uh... He told me the reason I couldn't remember.
Henry Jenkins : [flashback] And you said you didn't want to remember. We went to great lengths to make sure that you didn't.
Dr. Carter Burke : And is it still the case that you don't want to remember?
Richard Castle : No... I- I've tried to put it behind me... But it haunts me. Not a day goes by I don't wonder where I was, what I saw... what I did. Is it possible my memories are coming back?
Dr. Carter Burke : Well, dreams can be memories. But more often, they're symbolic, metaphoric expressions of an issue or problem. You're also a writer, a creative person. This could mean your mind is building a narrative to fill the two-month void.
Richard Castle : I want to understand these dreams. What they mean and, uh... if they're real.

Henry Jenkins : I thought we had an understanding, that you wouldn't pursue this.
Richard Castle : Jenkins?
Henry Jenkins : Well, you'll have to forget about Bilal Khan and everything else that's occurred tonight.
Richard Castle : Are you gonna... help me to forget?
Henry Jenkins : We'd prefer not to.
Richard Castle : Yes, well... thank you for that. Oh, and, uh...
[Castle punches Jenkins]
Richard Castle : That's for making me miss my wedding day.
Henry Jenkins : You have no idea how lucky you are, Mr. Castle. As for missing your wedding, that was unavoidable, if it's any consolation.
Richard Castle : It's not. You dragged me halfway across the world. You owe me an explanation.
Henry Jenkins : I'm not at liberty to give you one.
Richard Castle : Well, then I'm not at liberty to forget about Bilal Khan, or Golovkin here.
Henry Jenkins : Mr. Castle.
Richard Castle : What? You gonna kill me? You can't. Raise too many questions. That's why you brought me *back* from Thailand minus my memory. I was gone two months, thanks to you. I missed my wedding. What couldn't wait one more day?
Henry Jenkins : There was a ticking clock. We picked up chatter about a major Al-Qaeda strike in the U.S. We knew it was hours away, and there was never enough time for us to put the pieces together in order to stop it.
Richard Castle : But Bilal knew about the strike.
Henry Jenkins : Names, places, operational details. We were desperate for Bilal and his intel. And when his contact was killed, we needed you to get at Balil. And he came through. And we were able to prevent the strike, then we neutralized everyone involved... That's all I can tell you. And I expect you not to repeat it. Think of it this way. Yeah, you missed your wedding, but... you also saved tens of thousands of lives... You should leave now, Mr. Castle.
