'Castle' season 5 episode 16 photos: Castle's life in danger and Castle's father (Photos)

"Castle" season 5 has a two-part episode coming up, and on Tuesday, Feb. 5, ABC released photos from episode 16, "Hunt," and there's going to be plenty of danger to come.

In the first of the "Castle" season 5 two-parter, "Target," Castle (Nathan Fillion) and Beckett (Stana Katic) will be investigating a murder that exposes a plot to kidnap a wealthy Middle Eastern businessman's daughter, while in the second part, "Hunt," Castle's efforts puts his own life in danger. James Brolin is coming in to play Castle's father, which could answer some questions fans have had over the years.

The "Hunt" photos, which you can check out in the slideshow at the top of this article, offer a look at Castle with his father, but they also show him being led by two armed guys in masks as guest star Christopher Heyerdahl looks on. Just what is going on out there in the woods? And what's being discussed over those cups of coffee? And what will this episode mean for the relationship between father and son? It looks like the conclusion of the upcoming two-part episode will be an hour "Castle" fans won't want to miss.

"Castle" season 5 airs Mondays at 10 p.m. on ABC. What do you think of the latest photos? Are you looking forward to seeing Castle's father?
