Quotes
-
Richard Castle : What, no alcohol swab this time?
Mr. Flynn : No need. This stuff will kill you in about twelve seconds.
Richard Castle : Or, and just go with me on this, we could skip it. There's no reason this has to end in tragedy.
Mr. Flynn : Everything ends in tragedy, even an epic love story like yours.

[repeated line]
Mr. Flynn : Don't you just love this song?
-
Mr. Flynn : Ah. Good. Awake and alert, I see.
Richard Castle : Who are you?
Mr. Flynn : Does it matter? I understand that, as a writer, the naming of a thing would seem to be of paramount importance. But trust me, my name is the least consequential thing for you to know right now.
Richard Castle : It's an embarrassing name, isn't it? Like a boy named Sue? Maybe your mother called you doofus?
Mr. Flynn : I was named by the State... But for operational purposes, I'm known as Mr. Flynn, and I've been entrusted with your interrogation. By the time we're done, you will have revealed the names of everyone who knows about LokSat.
Richard Castle : [chuckles] So you can kill them? Forget it. I'm not telling you anything. I'm not betraying anyone. I don't care how many thumbscrews you put to me.
Mr. Flynn : Oh, no. I don't believe in torture. Science is much more effective, and the company has made great leaps in the field of chemical truth agents.
[attaches an IV to Castles arm]
Mr. Flynn : Within the hour, you will tell me everything I want to know, and then you will die... Now, tell me honestly, was knowing my name really that important?
-
Mr. Flynn : SPOILER: Thanks for sharing your personal feelings. They've given me some real insight.
Richard Castle : You know, you- you don't have to do this. Clearly, you're looking for something more.
Mr. Flynn : Oh, no. You misunderstood me. I'm not yearning for a happy family, simply insight into how best to dissect one. Now, time to get down to business.
Richard Castle : Look, um... maybe I could make a quick trip to the little boys' room before we get started with any more questions?
Mr. Flynn : Oh... I won't be asking the hard questions.
Richard Castle : Who will?
Mr. Flynn : My boss, the man you call LokSat.
[Flynn leaves, and Castle comes face to face with LokSat]
Mason Wood : Surprise.
-
Mr. Flynn : Can I ask you a personal question?
Richard Castle : No.
Mr. Flynn : As I said, I was raised by the State. I never had a family growing up. I never knew love in the way that you so clearly do.
Richard Castle : Well, why don't you unstrap me, I'll come give you a big hug.
Mr. Flynn : I've read your files. You were an incorrigible playboy before you met Katherine Beckett. What changed?
Richard Castle : I fell in love with her.
Mr. Flynn : Why?
Richard Castle : Because I'd never met anyone like her.
Mr. Flynn : Well, you've never met anyone like me.
Richard Castle : Yeah, but you don't have the legs, or the eyes, or the brains, or the heart. Beckett makes me laugh. She challenges me. I became a better man. Wha- Why am I telling you this?
[Flynn taps the IV of truth serum]
Richard Castle : Right.
Mr. Flynn : But these feelings make you vulnerable. Surely, you must see that.
Richard Castle : Yeah, well, what's the alternative? To be like you? A man alone, without empathy?
Mr. Flynn : She's the reason you are on this table. If you'd never met her, you'd most likely have a very long life ahead of you. Surely, you would take a do-over, if offered.
Richard Castle : No, I wouldn't.
Mr. Flynn : Hmm. Interesting.
Richard Castle : She's gonna find you. You and LokSat. And she's gonna bury you both. And I can't tell a lie, right?
Mr. Flynn : Yes, but the fact that you believe it, does not make it the truth. Kate Beckett is going to be dead by the end of the night, and there is nothing you can do about it.

[first lines]
Mr. Flynn : [singing] I think I'll go for a walk outside now / The summer sun's calling my name / I hear ya now / I just can't stay inside all day / I gotta get out get me some of those rays.
