"Ok, so now we know there are two of them, and they are after the ladies, not going to happen." Castle said frowning as he handed the letter back over to Kate.

"Don't know who these clowns think they are…but they won't get within a spitting distance…of either of them if I have anything to say about it." Matt tossed back as if he were big man on campus.

"Ok, pipe down you too. The last thing we need right now is you two going at it to try and gain dominance. I have the gun, I'm the cop, I am apart of the law, therefore I win. UNDERSTOOD?" Kate interjected, looking both Matt and Castle both squarely in the eye…. As C.J. just hung back rolling her eyes at the whole situation.

"Ok, so first of all, Kate and I are obviously intruding on what they seem to think is their territory? Which by referencing the note they had left, sounds like it is two women that are doing this?" C.J. concluded.

"After what the note said, I would agree." Kate concurred.

"So, who have Mr. Houston and I had relationships with that ended so badly that, this might be the ending result?" Castle chimed in.

The two men stood there thinking on the situation as Kate and C.J. looked at each other with an agreeing eye roll.

"Alright guys an ideas floating around in your….brain?" Kate asked after a deafening silence, she could no longer take.

"No" the two men said in unison.

"Houston, what about Erin Andrews? Maybe we should check to see if she is still in that mental hospital. After all she did come after me with a scalpel when she thought you and I were together. After that one night stand you had with her a couple years ago." C.J. said laying the ground work for guilt in Houston but not coming right out and saying anything.

"Yea, maybe we should check on her just to be sure, that she's either there or not." Houston said not wanting to make eye contact.

"Ok, sounds like we have a start with Mr. Houston. What about you Castle? Any deep fried twinkies that might do this or any Castle cronies?" Kate asked with a huge smirk on her face.

"Nooooo, at least not that I can think of." Castle shot back.

"What about deep fried twinkie 2? After all she tried to take you for everything you were worth, didn't get along with Alexis, or Martha, and more or less hasn't worked much since you guys divorced. Maybe she's ticked enough to try to put the blame else where and now that you and I have been working together for a few years now, maybe she thinks there is more to our relationship than just work." Kate stated matter of factly.

"Well when you put it that way, I guess Gina may at least be a good place to start." Castle concluded with a smirk of his own.

"Great, lets grab one of the station cars and go eat as planned and when we get back, we can see if each has a plausible alibi for the night in question." Kate said, turning to head for a vacant squad car.

They all hopped into a new squad car as Kate drove them all off for lunch and hopes that the two women they thought may be their best suspects actually did turn out to be the ones responsible for the shooting the night of the charity event.
