Martha Rodgers

The time has come, dear Castle fans, for Rick and Kate to take things to the next level. During November sweeps in Episode 8, "After Hours," the crime-solving couple comes clean about their relationship — to their parents! Dun dun dunnn.

The "meet the parents" dinner is a rite of passage for any new couple, but for Castle and Beckett, the stakes are even higher. The question isn't...

Richard Castle and Kate Beckett have been keeping their sexy-sexy time under wraps ever since they hooked up that dark and stormy night in Castle's Season 4 finale — er, perhaps we should say trying to keep it under wraps.

While we expected Kate's best friend Lanie Parish to make the discovery — she was the first to notice Beckett's post-sex glow, after all — a new sneak peek...

So far, we know there's at least one person in the Castle-Rodgers household getting their frisky on in Season 5 — but what about Rick's roommate for life, the lovely and flamboyant Miss Martha?

According to actress Susan Sullivan, love might be in the air for the merlot-drinking matriarch.

"I am hoping so," she dished to TV Fanatic. "In fact I pitched the idea."

So who's the lucky...
