Sergeant Anderson for the overnight watch, he told her there hasn't been any news from the undercover operation at this time.
"Thank you!", she tells him on the phone. She goes to look at her husband now sitting up in bed.
"If I didn't know you any better, I would think that we both should travel to the South Street, Seaport and just check it out with the guys." He points out struggling to get up from the bed, after getting comfortable the last past hour.
"I think so as well, Rick!" As he realize, it's not the ususal banter between them as husband and wife.

This is when she taps lightly on there front window to scare the hell out of them.
"What's going on?" She tells them, as both Castle and Beckett goes to sit in the back sit to wait it out.
"So far Captain Beckett, nothing is going on at the moment." Ryan reports to both of there passengers.
"However, we suspect something is going to happen sometime soon, since the dock Manager Erikson has not left to go home." Javier replies while taking a sip of his coffee to try and get warmed up, since the temperature has started to drop somewhat.
