Goofs
When he leaves a meeting with Castle, Mr. Smith uses a chess metaphor that a well-placed pawn is more powerful than a king. Although it's the most important piece, and its capture the ultimate goal, the king actually has little real power within the game. If Mr. Smith knows the game well enough to use the metaphor, he would know that the queen is the most powerful, and wouldn't have used it in the first place.

Quotes
Captain Victoria Gates: [to Beckett] We are tasked by the city of New York to protect its people. Sometimes that task comes with a cost... I know what they call me, Detective. "Iron" Gates. I hear the whispers. "She's from IA. She must hate cops." Well, the truth is, I love cops... My daddy was a cop. My uncles were cops. But the sergeant who assaulted my patrol partner under the color of authority? Who holds him accountable?... We do. Go to the mayor. Get him to voluntarily surrender his coat for fiber testing without a warrant. Tell him it's the only way to keep it out of the media. But if he refuses... you get that warrant and you do your job. Whatever the cost.
