The wait is over for fans as ABC's hit crime drama, Castle, will be returning on Monday night for a highly anticipated episode involving Castle's father, Jackson Hunt (James Brolin).

Castle Not Ready To Commit To Beckett?

Unbeknownst to Beckett (Stana Katic) she will be meeting her father-in-law, and her crime novelist fiance would prefer that she not.

In a sneak peek video of the upcoming episode, which is titled Deep Cover, both Castle and Kate are seen querying Hunt on a photo of a man that was killed the night before.

"Do you know a man named Ted Rollins," Beckett asks Hunt.

Castle's biological dad (still not known to Kate) claims that he's unfamiliar with the man, but queries her as to why she's asking him about it, saying "No, I don't believe I do, why?"

Beckett then informs him of the man's slaying, prompting Hunt to appear confused over the situation.

"Okay. I'm not sure what that has to do with me," he says.

While the respective installment intention continues to escalate, the questioning scene surely serves as a precursor to one of the program's juiciest conflicts in quite some time.

ABC's Castle will be airing Deep Cover on Monday, Jan. 13 at 10 p.m. ET. Limelight, its following episode, will air on Jan. 20. Be sure to keep checking back with Enstars for more of the latest info on the program. The trailer for the upcoming episode can be viewed below.
