Recap

The scene opens with a man and woman kissing and they go into a pizza shop that the man’s father owns. The woman says that she can’t believe that she is with Authentic Nick. She takes a picture. They smell something and open the oven to find a dead body. Meanwhile, Castle makes turkey beacon for Alexis, but she says that she is not in the mood. He asks what is wrong and she says that she is not invited to Lauren’s party. Castle offers to call Lauren’s mom and Alexis says that she can handle it on her own. Castle meets Beckett and tells her that he wants to help Alexis and Beckett warns against it. They arrive at the crime scene at Authentic Nick’s Pizzeria where they find Nick Jr. there. They talk to him and he says that he came back from a date and had a girl with him, but she had to be taken away in the ambulance for vomiting too much. He gives Castle her number. Ralph “Nick” Carbone comes in and is devastated. He tells that it has to be the other Nicks around the square. He points the finger at Sal Malavolta, Luca Sabalini and Vinny Delfino. He says that one of them put a gallon of soap. He says that he is upset that they put a cadaver in his oven, but Beckett says that it is not a cadaver, it is murder. ..
