Today's episode of "Castle" will focus on the murder of a personal injury attorney. The death of the larger-than-life lawyer, however, is part of a greater picture that Beckett and Castle will find out as they look into the victim's competitors and clients who may have committed the crime. 

The episode after that will put the spotlight on Rick and his still unexplained three-month long disappearance. It took a while before it was taken off the backburner but fans will surely be glad to finally get the chance to uncover the mystery surrounding the incident that Rick has no memory of. 

In an interview with TV Line, Seamus Dever who plays Detective Ryan in the series teased about what's in store for viewers as "Castle" inches closer to the end of season 7. 

"There is, of course, the one that everyone has been hanging on, waiting for, since the beginning of this season," Dever said when asked to drop some spoilers. "What happened to Castle? Where did he go for those three months?" 

In a separate interview with TV Line, showrunner David Amann discussed the events that will conclude the current season.

"Obviously, the 150th episode is a milestone for the show but it also directly precedes the season finale," Amann revealed. "At this point, we intend Episode 22 to be a buoyant, classic episode of Castle, while [the finale] will focus on compelling, high-stakes story-telling surrounding Castle and Beckett mythology."

Meanwhile, there is still no word from ABC about the renewal of the series for season 8. Whether or not fans will see more of Rick and Beckett after they take the final bow for season 7 is still unknown, but viewers can treat themselves with the next thrilling installment of the series titled "Habeas Corpse," which will air today.
