Castle's fourth season began with its main characters keeping secrets from each other — secrets that creator Andrew W. Marlowe called a "ticking bomb." On Monday's season finale (10/9c, ABC), that bomb will finally explode.
Finale Preview: Get scoop on 39 must-watch season-enders
Although Castle (Nathan Fillion) has already learned Beckett's secret — that she remembers him saying "I love you" after she was shot — Beckett (Stana Katic) is not aware of this. But when the investigation into the murder of an Army vet puts Beckett on the trail of the man who shot her...

Does Castle's finale have a cliff-hanger like last year's? I'm not sure I could handle that! — Jessica
ADAM: Creator Andrew W. Marlowe hints that Beckett will be experiencing a lot of changes in the finale, and the domino effect of said changes leads to this season's climax. And while I'm pretty sure that no one's life will be hanging in the balance, Castle-Beckett fans will likely still be in for a long summer. Why? Marlowe says this finale doesn't lend itself to a large time jump between seasons. "The way we're ending this season, people will want to know what happens in the immediate aftermath," he teases.

I know Castle is trying to keep Castle and Beckett apart, but why is he acting like such a brat? — Liz
ADAM: He's just being a man, creator Andrew W. Marlowe says. "Men in general usually don't confront their feelings," he says of Castle's reaction to learning that Beckett remembers Castle's declaration of love. "He's certainly not the type of person to go up to Beckett and say, 'Hey, you hurt me!' because that would be exposing himself. He's expressing his anger with Beckett, and whether he knows it or not, he's trying to punish her without really putting his cards on the table." But don't worry: Beckett will soon figure out what set Castle off, thanks to another revealing chat with her therapist.
