Benjamin Morris is a character portrayed by Bruce Katzman in the ABC crime series Castle. Benjamin Morris is the overbearing father of Brian Morris, an Olympic swimming hopeful whose money and arrogance blended to provide him with "SWM4GLD" vanity plates for his car. When Zach Lindsey, the major stumbling block to those medal dreams, turns up deceased in "The Dead Pool", Brian is an early, and recurring, suspect, but later Castle realizes that Brian has never emerged from daddy's shadow, and inspecting Ben's phone logs opens up a slew of new possible suspects.
