Post-Ep for '47 Seconds'. "I need a word with you." Castle's voice cuts through the hubbub of the bullpen even though he has it purposefully toned low. Low and rough, scraping at his vocal cords with a touch of something dark and smoky that tugs at Kate's gut, exciting and scaring her in equal measure.

Follows the return of Kensi Blye and Marty Deeks from Afghanistan. Kensi Blye and Marty Deeks have had their fair share of traumatic experiences, but could this one send them over the edge.
