On Monday night’s Beauty and the Beast we saw Cat (Kristin Kreuk) and Vincent (Jay Ryan) do the deed. Only after a picnic, a kiss and asking about their first date numerous times to trigger his memory didn't work. However, that didn't help dear Catherine either as minutes later we saw him tying her up again before leaving on his next mission. That might well be the worst one-night stand I've ever! Poor Cat. Clearly their trust isn't back yet and he didn't want to give her the ability to hunt him down again.
Vincent 2.0 isn't shy or afraid of putting things out there, and that might be okay with some people, but I don't like this new Vincent at all. I'm hoping he gets his memory back sooner rather then later. I know it adds drama to the show but I, for one, would like him to at least remember Cat and build on their relationship from last season. I'd much rather see them work as team and work on missions together. I know Vincent won't let Cat in and he is still hiding his true purpose and who he is working for. But we know it's her bio father who's with the FBI.
Cat isn't listening to anyone, not even J.T. (Austin Basis). Tess (Nina Lisandrello) and Gabe (Sendhil Ramamurthy) try to reason with her but nothing works. Catherine is lucky to be surrounded by good friends such as Tess, J.T. and surprisingly, Gabe yet she doesn't seem to notice it. We learned in this episode that Gabe took his new job at the station in order to protect Vincent. So maybe Gabe isn't as bad as we thought, now that he is no longer a beast himself.
Even though Cat got herself kidnapped by Vincent, her stealthy tracking paid off - we did learned there is at least one more beast running around the city and not all of what Vincent is doing seems so evil anymore. It's possible her bio father is using Vincent to counter-act the vicious actions of other beasts. It's still unclear, yet things are getting kinda heavy for the two of them. Cat keeps pushing Vincent more and more and he doesn't like the suggestions or anyone controlling him. So I think Cat needs to cool it down just a little bit and give him some time to breathe and think things over.
I'm glad we got a J.T. and Tess scene in this episode. It was probably one of the best moments of the night as they sat in the bar and realized they have lost their best friends.Tess is going along with Gabe, in her attempt to protect Cat, straining their relationship. And J.T. is spending most of his time with Cat tracking down Vincent and has no one really to confide in at the moment. For me it was a nice scene and I've always wanted them together. So who knows, maybe we will see a love connection in the near future between the two of them.
In the end, when Vincent pushes Cat across the roof she comes to the to the conclusion that he is not the same man who protected her for a decade - she is working with someone she no longer knows. Vincent's memories of her and everyone else are gone. She decides that he's just too dangerous and something has to be done fast to save him before it's too late. I don't think the writers will keep us waiting to much longer but you never know. I'm just waiting for the big episode to come where Vincent starts to remember everything including Cat. Let's just hope that day is soon.
Beauty and the Beast season 2 airs Monday nights at 9/8c on The CW.
"Kidnapped" was written by Jennifer Levin & Sherri Cooper and directed by Rick Bota.
