==History== |
|||
'''Katherine''' "'''Kate'''" '''Beckett''' is a [[Character (arts)|fictional character]] portrayed by [[Stana Katic]] in the [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] crime series ''[[Castle (TV series)|Castle]]''. |
|||
Katherine Houghton Beckett, daughter of Jim and Johanna Beckett, was raised in Manhattan. |
|||
Beckett went to [[Stuyvesant High School]], a public school in New York City reserved for highly gifted students. She then studied pre-law at [[Stanford University]], dreaming of becoming the first female [[Chief Justice of the United States|Chief Justice of the Supreme Court]], before transferring to [[New York University]] after her mother's death to pursue a career in law enforcement. Between her junior and senior year of college, she spent a semester studying in [[Kyiv]], Ukraine. |
|||
==Background== |
|||
Beckett is a detective with the [[New York City Police Department]], specifically the Twelfth Precinct Homicide Squad, where she works with fellow detectives Javier Esposito and Kevin Ryan and medical examiner Lanie Parish under Captain Roy Montgomery. In the pilot episode,<ref name="Flowers for Your Grave">{{cite episode| title=Flowers for Your Grave| episodelink=List of Castle episodes#Season 1: 2009| series=Castle| serieslink=Castle (TV series)| network=[[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]]| airdate=2009-03-09| season=1| number=1}}</ref> Beckett leads the investigation into the murder of Allison Tisdale, which is staged in the style of a death scene described in the [[Richard Castle]] novel ''Flowers For Your Grave'', along with other murders based on Castle's fiction. |
|||
===Her mother's murder=== |
|||
Beckett has Castle consult on the case, and though she tries to contain his access, he repeatedly violates police protocol. Although the killer is apparently caught when he leaves his fingerprints on a note he allegedly sent to Castle, Castle convinces Beckett to continue the investigation based on a hunch, the two discovering that the killer was actually Allison's brother, setting up a mentally ill client of his sister- a [[social work]]er- so that he could claim the majority of their father's estate due to his father suffering from terminal [[cancer]]. By the end of the pilot, Castle uses his friendship with the Mayor to get partnered with Beckett under the pretense of conducting research for a new series of novels starring a detective based on Beckett. Toward the end of the second episode,<ref name="Nanny McDead">{{cite episode| title=Nanny McDead| episodelink=List of Castle episodes#Season 1: 2009| series=Castle| serieslink=Castle (TV series)| network=[[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]]| airdate=2009-03-16| season=1| number=2}}</ref> Beckett's literary alter-ego is revealed to be named "Nikki Heat."<ref>[http://sepinwall.blogspot.com/2009/03/castle-nanny-mcdead-to-protect-and.html What's Alan Watching?

On January 9, 1999, when she was 19, her mother, Johanna, was stabbed to death while on her way to meet with Jim and Kate for dinner. The detective in charge of the investigation, Detective John Raglan, was apparently never able to find the killer and attributed her death to a random act of gang violence. Kate, though, believes that there was more to her mother's murder than a random killing. Her father took Johanna's death hard and became an alcoholic. She was eventually able to help her father get through it. She since wears her mother's wedding ring as a necklace for "the life she lost" and her father's watch for "the life she saved". Johanna's death inspired Kate to become a detective. |

After graduating from college, Beckett enrolled in the [[New York City Police Academy]]. She was sworn into the [[New York City Police Department]] and assigned to the 12th Precinct as a probationary patrol officer; her training officer was Mike Royce ([[Jason Beghe]]). His stories and influence in her life later led to her falling in love with him.<ref>{{Cite episode|title=Under the Gun|series=Castle|series-link=Castle (TV series)|date=October 4, 2010|season=3|number=3}}</ref> |

|||
==Biography== |
|||
During the pilot, Castle speculated that Beckett had joined the police force due to an unsolved trauma suffered by someone close to her, and Beckett implied that he was correct. Katic also confirmed that Beckett "does have a history with (an) unsolved crime" which inspires her to build "case[s] that would never fall apart in court."<ref>[http://www.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/20090308/LIFE/903080308/-1 ABC's 'Castle' is latest entry in quirky crime-show genre]</ref> In the second episode, Beckett plied suspect Chloe Richardson by admitting that someone close to her had been killed; by the fifth episode,<ref name="A Chill Goes Through Her Veins">{{cite episode| title=A Chill Goes Through Her Veins| episodelink=List of Castle episodes#Season 1: 2009| series=Castle| serieslink=Castle (TV series)| network=[[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]]| airdate=2009-04-06| season=1| number=5}}</ref> Beckett tells Castle that it had been her mother, Johanna Beckett, who had been violently murdered, Beckett becoming a cop because she wanted to be a detective who didn't commit what she feels was the invstigating detectives' mistake of 'pigeon-holing' crimes (She explained to Castle that she believes that her mother's killer was never caught because the investigating detectives simply assumed that she was killed in a botched robbery and ignored all evidence to the contrary, such as the fact that her mother still had her purse and keys when she was found). She explained that she now wears her mother's wedding ring on a necklace for "the life [she] lost" and her father's watch for "the life [she] saved" when she helped him recover from his [[alcoholism]]. She also reads [[mystery fiction]] as a result, hoping to [[forensic psychology|gain insight into murderers' motives]], and is not so secretly one of Castle's fans. |
|||
In "Always", Beckett resigns from the NYPD after nearly losing her life trying to apprehend Cole Maddox, the sniper who shot her the previous year at Captain Montgomery's funeral. Over the next few days, she learns that Maddox was working for US Senator William H. Bracken ([[Jack Coleman (actor)|Jack Coleman]]), who was the ultimate mastermind behind her mother's murder. She asks for her old job back, and because her resignation wasn't processed, Captain Gates allowed her to remain on the force after serving out the suspension she was assigned for disobeying orders. |
|||
In episode 9, Beckett's past is further revealed when a former love interest, FBI Agent Will Sorenson, returns to New York and requests Beckett's assistance on a kidnapping case. It is revealed in the episode by Sorenson that Beckett once waited in line for an hour just to get one of Castle's books signed, and also how his novels helped her through her mother's death. In the first season finale, Beckett angrily refuses Castle's help in reopening her mother's murder investigation- having concluded after conducting her own investigations after joining the force that focusing on her mother's death would destroy her life-, stating that if Castle interferes, it will end his police collaboration with her. Despite this, Castle confronts Beckett at the end of the episode with evidence that her mother was targeted for murder. At the beginning of season 2 she forgives Castle for his indiscretion about her mother's murder after he delivers a heartfelt apology. During this period it was also revealed that Beckett speaks Russian after a semester in Kihab between her junior and senior year, as well as spending a brief period modelling when she was seventeen on the grounds that it seemed easier than waitressing (Although the only shown photograph of her modelling period is her in sports gear). Her partnership with Castle is later extended after Castle receives a three-book publishing deal after the success of the debut Nikki Heat novel.<ref name="When the Bough Breaks">{{cite episode| title=When the Bough Breaks| episodelink=List of Castle episodes#Season 2: 2009.E2.80.932010| series=Castle| serieslink=Castle (TV series)| network=[[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]]| airdate=2009-10-19| season=2| number=5}}</ref> |
|||
In "The Human Factor", Beckett is headhunted by Jerry Stack, a special investigator for the Office of the [[United States Attorney General]], who offers her a job in [[Washington, D.C.]] where she will work on the most challenging and sensitive cases in the country. After talking it over with Castle, she decides to accept the job. However, although Beckett made a positive impression on her colleagues for her investigative skills, she soon found herself unable to make the necessary moral compromises for her new role, jeopardizing a plan to infiltrate a major crime syndicate to protect a young woman who would have been forced to act as the mole. As a result, Beckett was fired, leaving her briefly unemployed due to station budget cuts preventing Gates from simply re-hiring her. Despite this, Castle was able to get her job back after he helped to reunite a prominent politician with his long-lost daughter in "Number One Fan", the city official wanting to thank the team for their role in bringing his family together. |
|||
Beckett's mother's case is again brought up at Season 2 Episode 13 "Sucker Punch" when Lanie contacts Dr. Murray after realizing the wound similarities between the victim and Beckett's mother. Dr. Murray then reveals to Beckett that there is no doubt in his mind, that the victim is killed by the same man than murdered her mother. At first she is informed by a corrupt politician Dick Coonan that it is a contract killer named "Rathborne" that killed her mother and the 3 other victims. They then set up an exchange so Beckett can finally catch the killer but he never shows. After the exchange goes bust she realizes that Coonan himself is the killer and as she goes to arrest and confront him, he takes Castle hostage. Castle manages to free himself but Coonan comes charging after him, only to have Beckett shoot him in the chest, killing him instantly. Though she gains some closure on her mother's death she still must figure out who now ordered the hit on her mother. In the same episode, Castle states that he will stop shadowing her and feels guilty that Beckett had to kill in order to save his life. However, Beckett tells him to stay, admitting that she has grown accustomed to Castle "pulling on [her] pigtails," that he makes her hard job more fun, and that she wants him to be there when she finally finds whoever ordered her mother's murder. |

In 2015, Beckett took the Captain's exam, which she passed with flying colors. She is also investigated as a possible candidate for the [[New York State Senate]].<ref>{{Cite episode|title=Hollander's Woods|series=Castle|series-link=Castle (TV series)|date=May 11, 2015|season=7|number=23}}</ref> Beckett ultimately turned down the chance to run for Senate and accepted the promotion to Captain, and was assigned to command the 12th Precinct after Gates was promoted to Deputy Chief and reassigned to One Police Plaza.<ref>{{Cite episode|title=XY|series=Castle|series-link=Castle (TV series)|date=September 21, 2015|season=8|number=1}}</ref> |

==Relationships== |
|||
'''Richard Castle''' |
|||
Beckett's initial relationship with Castle was strained, in part do to the fact that she viewed him as immature and reckless. However, she did see that he was important in solving difficult cases.

|||
As seen in "Knockout" and "Veritas", Beckett is a recipient of the [[New York City Police Department Medal of Honor]], the NYPD Unit Citation with a wreath, and the NYPD Longevity Service Bar with numeral "10".<ref>{{Cite episode|title=Knockout|series=Castle|series-link=Castle (TV series)|date=May 16, 2011|season=3|number=24}}</ref><ref>{{Cite episode|title=Veritas|series=Castle|series-link=Castle (TV series)|date=May 5, 2014|season=6|number=22}}</ref> |

In "Tick, Tick, Tick..." she is shown to be jealous of Castle's attention to Agent Shaw and her high-tech equipment. In the same episode, he is seen to be worried about her, even staying in her apartment to protect her from a murderer. He even made her pancakes in the morning, which she was teased about by Ryan and Esposito. |
|||
==Reception== |

History
[edit]Katherine Houghton Beckett, daughter of Jim and Johanna Beckett, was raised in Manhattan.
Beckett went to Stuyvesant High School, a public school in New York City reserved for highly gifted students. She then studied pre-law at Stanford University, dreaming of becoming the first female Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, before transferring to New York University after her mother's death to pursue a career in law enforcement. Between her junior and senior year of college, she spent a semester studying in Kyiv, Ukraine.
Her mother's murder
[edit]On January 9, 1999, when she was 19, her mother, Johanna, was stabbed to death while on her way to meet with Jim and Kate for dinner. The detective in charge of the investigation, Detective John Raglan, was apparently never able to find the killer and attributed her death to a random act of gang violence. Kate, though, believes that there was more to her mother's murder than a random killing. Her father took Johanna's death hard and became an alcoholic. She was eventually able to help her father get through it. She since wears her mother's wedding ring as a necklace for "the life she lost" and her father's watch for "the life she saved". Johanna's death inspired Kate to become a detective.
Career
[edit]After graduating from college, Beckett enrolled in the New York City Police Academy. She was sworn into the New York City Police Department and assigned to the 12th Precinct as a probationary patrol officer; her training officer was Mike Royce (Jason Beghe). His stories and influence in her life later led to her falling in love with him.[2]
Beckett became the youngest woman on the force to be appointed Detective 3rd Grade.[3] By 2009, Beckett was the lead detective of the 12th Precinct's Detective Squad, specializing in murder investigations. She worked with fellow detectives Javier Esposito (Jon Huertas) and Kevin Ryan (Seamus Dever) and medical examiner Lanie Parish (Tamala Jones) under Captain Roy Montgomery (Ruben Santiago-Hudson).
