Castle Season 5 Promo Video

All right, so for those of you who watched tonight's re-run of 'Castle', you saw the first Season 5 promo with new footage. If you're like me, you can't wait for the 5th season premiere, "After the Storm". So, SCROLL DOWN and watch the promo!

It started with Castle and Beckett in bed together, presumably waking up, according to the commentary having had "the best night of their lives". Castle asked Beckett if she had enjoyed herself, and she admitted that she had. Or rather, she adorably asked him, "So you liked it?" and when he responded "Yeah" she countered with "me too". Aww. Basically they were adorable. Plus, you know, her hair was everywhere so...major hairporn alert.

Then the footage cut to Beckett running, and doing some detective-y stuff, accompanied by some heightened music. And it was clear that something major was going on. The commentary questioned whether they made the right decision, of if things were irrevocably changed for the worse.

Then it cut back to Castle's bedroom, and he sat abruptly upright in bed. Alone.

Did this concern anyone else? Is it possible that the opening scene, which did feel a bit hazy with it's orange glow, was just Castle's pre-waking fantasy? Is it possible that he wakes up the morning after all alone? I really hope not, since last season was all about Beckett becoming more comfortable with the idea of a relationship, and presumably a comfortable Beckett would not run off. Then again, maybe it's in her character. Or she felt a strong desire to return to deal with the aftermath of her near-death, and she ran back to the station. Except she's fired so...my fan-side is hoping that the beginning was the real beginning. That they'll wake up together and share some nice words before they run off to deal with depressing crime. But you never know, and maybe that's the beauty of 'Castle'.
