This felt like it was a tribute the uber-faithful fans who kept the show going during its turbulent first 2 yrs..until "Still" came along in S5. I've watched my share of black & white 50's & 60's movies as my grandpa was a movie director of sorts & hence his movie craze kind of rubbed off me, and I've got to say that for a TV procedural with one of the lowest budgets on ABC, Castle got everything pretty much spot on, from the accents to the props to those fantastic dresses that Kate & Lanie wore. Excellent plot, superb acting. And even better was the love story unfolding. Stana was just drop dead gorgeous in that blue dress! And THAT kiss at the end..the Castle fandom literally exploded! Kudos to Tamala Jones..who knew she has such great pipes? She should sing more often.

This episode is really a pleasant surprise and so far it's the best episode in season 4.

The LA Noire-esque setting with Castle and Beckett as Joe and Vera; Lanie as a Betsy Sinclair the night club singer; Esposito as a Cuban hit-man and the funniest of all Ryan as an Irish mobster. I love the part when Catle ask Ryan to say Boy-o repeatedly. And the cheesy dialogs that seems like it's ripped straight from a black and white movie, it's just perfect.

The investigation in present day was kinda meh, but things got interesting whenever the story cut to 1947, and we finally get to see some romantic action between Nathan and Stana but only as Joe and Vera though. But still, here's hoping by the end of season 4, both Castle and Beckett will be together. It's also cool to see Molly Quinn playing someone other than Castle's good (but sometimes emotional and quite annoying) daughter.

And let's not forget the ever so awesome Mark Pellegrino as both Tom Dempsey and Tom Dempsey III. Kudos to the production team for having Mark Pellegrino guest staring in the show.

***************THIS REVIEW CONTAINS MAJOR SPOILERS *************

This episode is fun with the film noir stuff, but I cannot be satisfied with it when there are so many inconsistencies in the mystery. The major and really frustrating flaw is: How did Stanley get the Blue Butterfly from the safe in Dempsey's office if it was put behind a brick outside the building by Joe and Vera? Joe said Dempsey's prize possession would be under his nose for his whole life and he wouldn't know it. So how could it possibly be in Dempsey's secret safe? This does not make any sense and ruins the whole show. And they carry on with this impossible conclusion when Kate show's Castle the Blue Butterfly (stolen from Stanley by Frankie INSIDE the building) and it is wrapped in Joe's handkerchief. Joe wrapped the Blue Butterfly in his handkerchief and hid it OUTSIDE the building!! This is a terrible detective story.
