'Castle' Season 8 Episode 16 Spoilers: Esposito Unveils Relationship with Sonia; Carries Out Her Arrest
As "Castle" season 8 returned with its 16th episode, Esposito spilled out some beans to Rick, Kate and Ryan about his real score with Sonia.
Titled 'Heartbreaker," the episode revolved around the death of an armored-car driver who turned out to be related to the Sonia.
As the investigation progressed, the partners discovered that the present case was somewhat similar to a case that Esposito dealt with in the past.
Esposito had a relationship with Sonia but he previously chose to keep it from his friends. In episode 16, however, he was forced to reveal his secret to his peers. Initially, the trio could not believe that the detective was actually engaged to the suspect, but the confession eventually worked to their advantage as it helped the NYPD to delve deeper into the case.
"Engaged? You? Wait a second... all these years you never told me that?" said Ryan.
"You never asked!" answered Esposito.
Ryan went on to tell Esposito that he's a cop and should not have any romantic involvement with a criminal.
However, Rich interfered and said: "Technically, they were in the same line of work so really, it's a workplace romance."
Esposito made it clear to his peers that he knew nothing about Sonia's business. He said everything was normal between them until she began to act strange, leaving the house at odd hours.
Towards the end of the episode, Esposito carried out the arrest of his girlfriend and ensured his peers that everything was over between them.
"Castle" season 8 aired on April 4 on ABC.
