He was a client of the murder victim Deon Carver and had a dispute with him the night before he died. Pierce had a hearing the following morning, but did not show up. The team then travels to the last known address of Pierce, but he flees at the last moment out of the window. Castle and Beckett pursue him, but they are overtaken by a car that hits Pierce. The driver is Mike Royce, Beckett's old training officer from the NYPD, who now works as a bounty hunter, and has followed Pierce."@en . . .

Castle and Beckett pursue him, but they are overtaken by a car that hits Pierce. The driver is Mike Royce, Beckett's old training officer from the NYPD, who now works as a bounty hunter, and has followed Pierce. Beckett questions Pierce, who tries to talk his way out of his attempt to escape and the fight with Carver. For the time of the crime, he has an alibi, because a security guard at a bookstore had caught him stealing and booked him. Pierce is, however, one of the several parties aware of Carver's discovery of buried treasure, and is in fact kidnapped by Royce to lead him (Royce) to the loot. Pierce is not a killer, but indulges in more than enough criminal activity that he will presumably end up back in prison."@en . "Alive"@en . "275"^^ . . . . . "Male"@en . . .
