"Castle" Season 5 comes back from a short break with its fifth episode called "Probable Cause." In a teaser last week, ABC released a video showing 'cuffing Castle. Who is the murder victim, and how did the evidence lead to Castle?

Castle's latest episode is half-predictable. Fans would know what is going on a couple of minutes into the drama. Still, the writers did a fine job in exposing what or who was responsible for the obvious frame-up. 

Spoiler alert: The following portion reveals minor details in the latest "Castle" episode.
