First Draft [Action/Video] It was a cold and dark night...

Beckett! Where are you! You know I’m counting on you to save my lily white a—
[Castle looks wildly, dramatically around the area, taking stock and noting that he is not in New York City anymore. He’s got his bullet proof vest on that says writer across the front and a gun in a holster on his belt. The safety is on. The safety is always on because Beckett insists]

This is an interesting turn of events. I—uhm—I’m Rick Castle. You might have heard of me before. I am a best selling novelist. You might even recognize me from the ruggedly handsome photo on the back of my books. I’m also a consultant with the NYPD and my partner…she’s going to be mighty upset when she finds out I’ve been kidnapped…

[He pauses again, considering the situation]

Beckett? If this a prank it’s not a very good one.

Guide? No I did not get a guide.

[freckleddoll]

Alright, jus' give me a minute...'m sure I can get it to work.

[and there's actually several minutes where she's pressing buttons all over the device to try and send him the guide, finally managing to transfer a link to this to him.]
