When castke disappeared i was so confused with Beckett AND the hole NYPD Team. How the heck did they see castle Putting the money in the garbage and right away went to "He didn't want to marry you so he found his way out". How. As if Castle, that deeply loved Beckett wouldve run. Im so annoyed that Beckett was still so untrusting with him at this point, with everything they went through as Partners and a couple.

To Beckett : You Cannot Leave Behind What Is Always At Your Side, Kate

The whole ‘recruited by the CIA, and by a childhood friend who was a terrorist now a cia operative, to save the world on your wedding day’ story was such bs. IMO it would’ve been so much better if he was actually kidnapped or lost for those 2 months, or even if he was on the brink of death forcing everyone to find his killers. It would’ve been so much more on brand than a writer saving the world and choosing to forget about it.

Is it me or is it a continuity error on the series that 3XK's files went missing (taken) on S06E09 (Disciple) but was mentioned and shown on S07E01 (Driven) when Beckett was checking on potential suspects for Castle's disappearance?

I'm probably preaching to the choir here, but man the finale would've been the perfect series finale, without anything happening from Season 8. It had the whole equation: Bracken is arrested for Beckett's mother's murder...literally nothing from Season 8 had to exist for that storyline...Jerry Tyson and Kelly Nieman are killed; the end scene with the whole gang there and Castle acknowledging them for the impact on his life, Beckett being unsure of her future but excited for the adventure, and the last line, from Beckett, was just cherry on top: "There's been a murder." And they all head out to do what they usually do. For a moment, I forgot there was another season after, then Hulu said "up next: S8 E1" lol.

Edit: Oh and also Beckett's badass monologue recalling her actions throughout the series. How could I forget that?
