Previously on beauty & the beast...
Liam sent you. Who is liam?
Julianna: He tricked me into making him superhuman.
But i escaped and i have been trying to figure out
How to stop him ever since.
And now you have to.
You're the only one who has a chance.
You're getting married tomorrow.
And nothing is going to stand in the way of that, okay?
(fire alarm blares)
Right now, quickly! Go!
Talk to me. Are you okay?
Where'd he go?
He's gone.

Hey.
Did you get any sleep last night?
Barely. You?
No.
Want some coffee?
I'd love some.
Are you gonna get stitches?
No. No, i don't really need 'em.
Come on, you going to work today?
Yeah. Yeah, tess is under fire trying to explain why
Julianna was murdered at our wedding, so...
Right. Which is why
We need to track liam together, and fast.
Vincent, i meant what i said last night.
I don't want to go after him.
This isn't our responsibility.
How can you say that?
Not only did he kill julianna,
He completely destroyed our wedding.
Yeah, and he needs to be caught and brought to justice,
Just like every other murderer.
He's not just like every other murderer, okay?
You know it. You have seen what he can do. Yeah.
I saw that he almost killed both of us,
And i'm not willing to risk that anymore.
This isn't our fight.
How come you've been saying it is for the last few months?
Okay, and now i finally believe it,
So come on, what's changed? What's changed
Is that i know what we're really up against now,
And... I'm scared.
This was a huge mistake.
Okay, yes, i get it. Okay?
But those dhs agents...
They were wrong to ask us to get involved in the first place.
I didn't see it then,
But you did, vincent, and you were right.
We fought muirfield, beasts,
Gabe, and it should have stopped there.
This is... This is too much.
Okay, well, try telling that to the innocents that we've saved,
Okay, because dhs put us on this case.
Isn't this what we do?
Yes.
We save innocent people every day,
You as a doctor and me as a cop.
And in order for me to keep doing that,
I've gotta help tess solve this like a regular police case,
So we can get back to helping the people we can help.
Hey.
What did you say to me
When i first proposed to you?
That you thought that we were part of something bigger, okay?
Something just like this, right?
I was wrong, okay?
Look, maybe...
Maybe i just wanted to make a difference
So badly that i was willing to believe
Whatever it is dhs wanted me to believe.
That this was our fight.
And it's not, vincent.
This is way over our heads.
I'm done.
Jt: What do you mean, she's done?
Done, like... You mean with liam?
Or done, like, with everything?
With everything.
If it's anything other than a police case,
Catherine doesn't want to have anything to do with it anymore.
Yeah, well, can't really blame her.
I'm just saying, you guys have done a lot,
You know?
For a long time.
Lucky we're all still alive.
Yeah, well, that's exactly her point, you know?
She doesn't want to risk it anymore,
Especially after what happened at the wedding.
Jt: Again, you can't really blame her.
Come on, man, whose side are you on? Your side,
Our side, but, you know, it...
It's not like her argument doesn't have merit.
Yeah, i know.
I know, it's just...
Julianna turned this liam guy
Into some kind of superhuman,
And then she died trying to stop him
By experimenting on other innocents.
It's crazy. If we're the only ones who know about it,
Then we can't just walk away, right?
I know, i'm on your side, i get it.
The only thing i don't get is...
What changed for cat.
I mean, i didn't buy into
This whole destiny spiel
Of hers at first, but...
I do now.
Yeah, well, so do i.
Problem is, now catherine doesn't.
She's probably just overreacting.
It's understandable. She'll come around.
She has to.
Yeah, well, i can't wait.
You know, i-i gotta try and find liam
Before his trail goes completely cold.
Did you try beast-tracking him from the church?
Yeah. Obviously he knows how to cover his tracks.
(exhales)
How's the serum
Of julianna's coming along?
Well, i'm not having much luck separating
The superhuman parts
From the you'll-go-crazy-and-die parts.
And if i can't, it'll be too risky to inject into you.
Well, maybe i won't even need it to stop liam, right?
Julianna said you would.
Julianna didn't know me.
Besides, i'm still here.
I haven't lost a fight yet, have i?
Not with cat by your side.
Yeah, well, let's hope she does what you say
And she comes around.
Where are you going?
To try and figure out
Another way to track this liam guy.
Tess: No, we haven't found any suspects yet.
But it's only been 24 hours since julianna was murdered.
A half dozen chiefs
And assistant chiefs were at that wedding.
You understand me?
They want answers. I want answers.
And i will get them for you, chief,
But it's gonna take time.
You don't have time, tess.
Captain.
A fugitive was murdered there,
Your fugitive. In a minute and a half,
The press is gonna be all over this,
And if the department doesn't have suspects...
Look, we have a board going. I'm filling it
With anybody and everybody who might have
Had a motive to kill julianna keaton.
That's not good enough, damn it!
Look, i know that you vouched for me to get this job, chief.
I appreciate that.
I appreciate the pressure
That we're all under to solve this,
But you have to give me time
To do the job you hired me to do.
I will, tess, i'm trying.
But you're better than this.
You should have had a working theory by now,
And that makes me wonder if there's something going on here
That i don't know about.
Listen, tess, i figured out...
(sighs)
Figured out what, detective?
Cat, what are you doing here?
You should be home.
It's okay. I'm okay.
You asked me to look
Into suspects in julianna's murder, right?
Uh, yeah,
But not the day after your wedding.
Still, you were pretty insistent, captain,
And so i got right to work.
I think i might have figured out who killed her.
Cat, why don't you give the chief and i a second...
Shh.
Who do you think it was?
The interpol terrorist
Who escaped from jfk before my wedding.
Liam cullen?
Yeah, liam cullen.
Cat, i was doing everything i could
Not to connect liam to julianna--
To keep the superhuman crap out of the equation.
Okay, but you don't understand, that's the point.
I don't want you to have to cover anymore. Why should you?
Why should i...
What the hell are you talking about?
We don't have a choice.
Yes, we do.
This isn't about beasts, right?
Or vincent or me,
So why should we have to lie
To cover for whoever this liam guy is?
Did you get hit in the head when he attacked you?
I mean, obviously, you are not thinking clearly.
I was wrong to think
That this was all my responsibility, okay?
And since every person that i care about
Has been put in danger because of it,
It's my responsibility to fix it.
Look, we have a victim, right?
We know who did it.
So why hide it?
Let's just build a case.
Prove that liam's the one that killed her
And move on with our lives.
You make it sound so simple. It is simple.
This is our get out of jail free card.
This is our golden opportunity
To get out from underneath all this.
So, what, we treat a superhuman monster
Like a regular perp?
Arrest him?
Then what? I don't know.
I don't know, but i know
That we can't keep doing this by ourselves anymore.
There's a limit to what we can do.
I think that if we can get together
Enough cops to corner liam,
He's not gonna use his powers.
Not in public, anyway.
The one thing that we know that all of these people
Have in common-- beasts, julianna, liam--
Is that they don't want to be exposed.
Besides, do you have a better idea?
Excuse me, captain, somebody just got caught
Breaking into the morgue.
Give it to the lieutenant.
He got caught trying to steal
Julianna keaton's body.
Liam.
I'll need backup.
Check the north staircase.
You?
It's just a little misunderstanding.
I got this. Okay, we're good here.
What are you doing here?
Why would you want to steal julianna's body?
I didn't try and steal julianna's body.
I was just trying to track liam off of it.
Anyway, look, it's a good thing i came...
No, it is not a good thing.
This is a police case, i told you.
One that i am handling.
This is not a police case, and you know it.
We have had this conversation.
No, you have had this conversation.
I didn't agree to anything. But once you see
What someone's done to julianna's body,
I think you'll agree with me.
Catherine: What happened?
All the blood was drained from her body, postmortem.
Even from her lymphatic system,
Meaning there's not an ounce
Of blood left anywhere.
But why? I don't know.
I guess liam thought she was enhanced, too.
And either wanted to get the serum for himself,
Or wanted to make sure no one else could their hands on it.
Or he wanted to destroy any evidence
That could conceivably link him to her.
Superhuman evidence, right?
Only we know that.
As far as anyone else is concerned,
He's just another creepy guy with a creepy motive.
This city is full of them.
Catherine, you can't cover this up.
I don't plan on it.
I'm going to interview witnesses
And see if i can prove that liam did this.
That's never gonna work.
Where are you going? To try and track
Whoever took julianna's blood.
No. You can't, vincent.
I have to bring you in for questioning.
(scoffs)
Oh, you-you're serious?
Don't make me arrest you, honey.
Listen, if you have to subpoena tapes, do it.
Gas stations, atms, metro.
I'll take every camera i can get.
Cat.
39th is sending us more surveillance,
See if we can spot liam near the morgue.
Tell me you didn't bring vincent in for questioning.
Please? Yeah, i did.
Cat... Relax.
It's not really for questioning.
It's just for show.
With command breathing down your neck,
I didn't want to cut any corners. It's for your own good.
Well, it's not for your own good. Vincent's pissed.
Well, he won't be when this is all behind us.
When we get our normal lives back,
Which is all he ever wanted.
Look, cat, normally i'd be the first to applaud you,
You know, getting back in the fold, being a cop,
But i gotta say, i don't think you're really thinking
This thing through. Tess...
You arrested julianna.
She escaped and broke into your precinct,
Then she got killed on your watch.
Now, that's not the way that i'd look at it,
But it's the way that chief ward does.
You need to stop covering.
You need a plausible explanation,
And the only way to get that
Is to bust the guy who killed her: Liam.
(phone rings)
This is detective chandler.
Vincent: I'm telling you, okay?
Catherine is losing her damn mind.
Okay, let's calm down. We'll figure this out.
What-what's there to figure out, okay?
We gotta get her back on board.
Catherine knows that we work better together, all right?
What the hell is she thinking?
She's not thinking, vincent. She's afraid.
She's afraid she made a terrible mistake,
Putting us all up to this, and she feels responsible.
Well, she was right to get us involved
In this in the first place.
Maybe we didn't see it at first, but she was. She was right.
Except now she's not so sure,
Which is why she wants to stop it--
The-the danger, the cover-ups, okay?
In her defense, it's not a great way to live.
I know, believe me. I spent 12 years of my life
Trying to cover things up. It's not the solution.
But it won't catch liam, either.
Tess, we gotta stop him, okay?
Otherwise, god only knows what he's gonna do next.
I know. I know, but i also know
That bad things happen when you and cat
Aren't in sync.
So what do you suggest we do?
Something a little drastic.
Yeah, tyler zane.
We arrested him three months ago.
He was put into a psychiatric hospital.
I can't remember which one.
Oh, yeah, call me back.
Okay, thanks. Bye.
(gasps)
What are you doing here?
What is going on?
We need to talk.
What is this, an intervention?
I can't believe you guys are ganging up on me.
We're just trying to make you understand
That you are making a huge mistake.
No, i am trying to rectify one.
And, by the way,
The position that i am taking
Is the same one you all used to take.
So, what, you don't want normal lives anymore?
No, of course we do, cat, but we can't pretend this isn't happening,
That liam's not out there, can we?
We're not. I told you.
We're just not going to handle this
By ourselves anymore.
Hey, guys, what's going on?
Heather, what are you doing here?
I'm just bringing the presents back from the church.
I'm assuming you're returning them?
Cat, of course we all
Still want normal lives. That hasn't changed.
But what i'm trying to figure out
Is why you changed. Catherine: Okay.
Weren't you at the wedding? Didn't you see what happened?
Yeah, but frankly, that stuff happens to us all the time.
Not like that, it doesn't.
And not anymore.
Does anyone want to fill me in, here?
Look, maybe it was part of the bigger purpose, all right?
Something that you used to believe in.
And something i was pretty skeptical about at first,
But now i'm not. Ditto that.
Vincent: Look, cat,
All i want is a normal life.
You know that, okay?
But we can't have that
Until we finish what we started.
Which is to stop whoever is behind all this.
But we can't stop them.
Don't you understand?
We are not superhuman.
We-we can't fight every fight. No one can.
And i don't want to die trying.
I agree with cat.
Heather, please. Not now.
Look, i know that i am relatively new
To this whole beast/superhuman thing,
But i'm not new to being a sister.
She's the only family i have left
And i don't want to lose her.
I don't want to lose any of you.
Or me.
I get her argument,
But i don't get any of yours.
Well, either you buy into the destiny of it all
Or you don't, but... Who says?
I mean, how can you prove that it's her destiny?
Or yours or mine? I don't even know
If i believe in destiny, anyway. Tess: Okay, heather, what about
Responsibility? Don't you believe in that?
Well, it sounds to me like cat's being very responsible,
Wanting to handle this like a cop and not risk our lives
By doing it alone.
It makes all the sense in the world.
What she said.
Look, i appreciate your concern, i do.
And, more importantly, i appreciate everything
You guys have done so far, but i...
I am not changing my mind.
I was wrong to put us on this path
And i'm not going to stop till i get us off it.
(sighs) i'll go check on her.
Mm-hmm.
(vincent sighs)
Do you realize what you just did?
What? I was just saying how i feel.
Mm-mm. You put a whole lot of people's lives at risk.
Innocent people. Vincent...
You think i like doing this, heather?
You think i like the fact
That my wedding just blew up in my face?
I'm sorry.
Yeah, because if cat doesn't turn it around, and quick,
Liam is gonna be out there
And a whole lot of innocent people are gonna die.
It's not just our lives at stake here.
You get that?
Yeah.
I'm gonna go and try and track liam.
¶ ¶
Mind if i join you?
Depends.
Are you gonna yell at me, too?
Ha.
Never seen vincent that mad before.
You've never seen him beast out?
Okay, other than that.
Just... Not at me.
Didn't realize what i was getting myself
In the middle of. Yeah?
Well, welcome to the club. It ain't easy.
And i don't think vincent meant to get that upset.
He's just worried about cat.
And he knows how important you are to her
And how much she values your opinion.
Okay, well, if he's so worried about her,
Then why is he so willing to risk her life?
What's this?
The reason cat's willing to risk her life.
Well, at least up until today.
I don't get it.
It's a journal.
And it looks old.
It is old.
About 170 years old.
It belonged to cat's
Great-great-great-great aunt, rebecca.
Cat's father's line,
But not yours.
And bottom line is,
Rebecca fell in love with a beast, too.
What?
It's a long story, but the point is,
Cat never believed in any of this destiny stuff, either,
Until she read this.
And then she saw that she and vincent
Were following in the same footsteps
As rebecca and her beast, decades ago.
This is the first i've ever heard of any of this.
Okay, so... What does it mean?
Um... As far as cat's concerned--
Was concerned--
It means she and vincent are destined to do more.
(scoffs quietly)
Okay, i know,
But when you read it, and then when you think about
All that cat and vincent have been through,
Why they're together...
It's hard not to believe.
¶ too much blood ¶
¶ on my day to day... ¶
Ooh, asylums creep me out.
Too bad, 'cause we might be here a while.
Did you bring a pee bottle?
We're staking the place out?
I thought you just wanted to talk to zane.
No, i want to wait till liam comes after him.
(sighs) to get zane's blood.
If i'm right, yeah.
I mean, he went after julianna's blood,
Thinking it was enhanced.
Why not go after her first experiment, too?
What about the other experiments?
Well, bob and carol are already dead
And so's the mercenary who came after us at the falls.
And jt and alton are already cured.
Okay,
What do we do if liam attacks zane?
Tranq gun.
What if that doesn't work?
Then we make a big-ass scene.
We get every alarm sounding,
Every surveillance camera shooting,
And expose him.
Or we could just call vincent
And get a little beast help over here.
Come on, tess, we've already gone over this.
It's not going to help you or us move past this mess.
(automatic gunfire)
Okay, call for backup!
Dispatch, this is captain vargas. Shots fired.
(snarling)
Catherine: Freeze!
That's not liam.
You check on vincent.
Okay.
Tess: Nypd! Back me up!
Are you all right? Yeah. Yeah, i think so.
Look, i tracked him here to zane,
But i was too late.
Zane's dead.
We need to talk.
Is he going to live?
Not if he keeps ending up in here.
You've been more patient than doctor lately, doctor.
Yeah, i guess i'm just accident-prone.
Oh, yeah, that's the problem.
Okay, well, uh,
There's no signs of a concussion.
A few minor abrasions and bruises.
You're lucky you didn't break anything.
Maybe next time you should take the elevator.
Yes.
Elevator? Wh-what?
What did you say you did?
Just that i fell down some stairs.
That's not what happened.
Well, what am i supposed to tell him?
That i jumped out of a fourth-story window
To avoid machine gun fire?
Well, that's the truth.
We have to explain what happened somehow.
How do i explain that with a few bumps and bruises?
Come on. You want me to expose myself, too?
Look, if i hadn't beasted out on the fall,
I'd probably be a dead man right now.
Yeah, well, if the hit man was a better shot,
You'd be dead, too.
Which is exactly why i want to stop doing this.
How was i supposed to know
That liam hired somebody else to do his dirty work?
All i was trying to do
Was track whoever took julianna's blood.
Yeah, and you almost got killed in the process, by...
By somebody who's willing to do anything and everything
To get what he wants.
Okay, but don't you see what this means?
It means i'm getting closer.
It also means we now know that liam wants
Anybody who has the serum in their bodies.
Which, as far as we know, is nobody else.
Nobody that we know of.
Come on, either way,
All i have to do is pick up
The trail of the hit man again, okay?
And hopefully he leads me back to liam.
So that he can, what?
Toss you around like a rag doll,
Like he did at our wedding?
Okay, well, what's your solution?
Track him down your way,
By the book?
What, you don't think he's gonna kill cops?
Exactly. You can't take that chance.
Which means-- like it or not, catherine--
This isn't a police case.
You're right, it isn't.
It's homeland security's case.
Give me a break.
No, they deal with the worst of the worst--
Terrorists, assassins--
It's their job. Okay.
Besides, they gave us this case.
I'm gonna give it back to them.
Heather: Jt? (door closes)
Geez, are you okay?
Yeah, fine.
Just my ego is bruised.
Well, what are you doing?
I was trying to separate the good part
Of julianna's serum from the bad,
But it's obviously not working.
Yeah.
Well, neither is this.
It's a terrible story,
What happened to rebecca.
So if you think reading it would change
My mind about cat, you can forget it. Wait.
Didn't you read what happened to alistair?
Yeah.
He was burned at the stake by an angry mob.
Jt, he died,
So if anything, that just supports
What cat is doing so that vincent won't die, either,
Fighting beasts or superhuman crazies.
But that's just it.
Vincent didn't die.
An almost identical situation
Happened to cat and vincent last year,
But because cat read rebecca's journal,
She learned from it.
She didn't make the same mistake rebecca did,
And that's how she saved vincent.
Okay, that doesn't prove
That cat and vincent have a destiny.
Except why would rebecca have written it all down
If she didn't believe that somebody down the line
Was destined to fight the same fights?
What?
You think it's coincidence
That almost 200 years later,
Cat met vincent just like rebecca met alistair?
And they both had to fight beasts
And monsters like liam?
Yeah, it could be a coincidence.
Or it isn't.
And if it's not, if it is...
Fate or destiny or whatever you want to call it,
Then cat could be making the biggest mistake
Of her life by quitting.
Because if she and vincent are meant to be together,
And not just for love,
Then they do have a greater purpose,
One that they can't quit.
I'm sorry, it just all sounds so far-fetched.
Like beasts
And superhumans aren't?
Okay.
There's somebody i want you to talk to.
Somebody that knows more about this stuff than anybody.
Who?
Cat's father.
I know.
Trust me.
Didn't want to start without you, captain.
Thank you. Ward: Yeah, detective chandler
Said you discovered a break in the case.
I'm kind of short on time, so... Right, okay, so
Dhs approached captain vargas and i
To help investigate a dangerous
New street drug,
Hoping that we could track down its distributor.
Dhs approached you directly?
Why didn't they use the proper channels?
Well, actually...
It was before tess became captain.
Right. Anyway, we followed
A couple of leads to two users,
Tyler zane and alton finn. Ward: Zane?
Isn't he that vic you found dead
In the psychiatric hospital?
Exactly.
And i think-- we think--
That he was killed in a cover-up.
The same cover-up that cost julianna keaton her life.
Wait, what's keaton's connection to all this?
Well, she was the one responsible for
Making the drug. Right?
And distributing it, which is why we arrested her.
And then she broke out of jail,
She tried to steal all the evidence
That we had against her,
And then she tried to get revenge
Against me at my wedding.
Okay, so what are you suggesting?
I'm suggesting we give this case back to dhs.
I mean, if we're dealing with an interpol terrorist,
This is way over our heads.
This guy is a monster.
You agree?
It's her case.
Ward: Okay.
Give it back to dhs.
Tell them we'll cooperate
In whatever way we can, but that it's their case.
Which means it's no longer our problem.
Looks like you're off the hook, captain.
Thanks.
Oh, cat, i sure hope you know what you're doing.
I am getting our lives back, that's what i'm doing.
Come on.
Let's go finish this once and for all.
So...
Why did my agents approach you with this, again?
I don't know.
Actually, i think they were looking for some help.
Help...
In finding liam?
No, julianna.
We don't know how liam's involved, exactly.
Well, other than the fact
That he murdered julianna, of course.
Well, if this liam cullen--
If that really is his name--
If he is involved, then this case should never have left dhs,
Especially if interpol wants him, too.
Are you sure that you i.D.'d this man at your wedding?
Positive.
There is no question that he killed
Julianna keaton, agent russo.
Do you have any idea why?
Theories. They're all in the file.
You might want to look at thomas's
And barnett's files, though,
Since they're the agents that contacted us originally.
Well, this is obviously not a local case,
So we will be taking it over from here.
I would like to apologize
For any inconvenience that this may have caused
You or your precinct.
Thank you.
So that's it?
Yes, that's it. If you could just send over
The rest of your files, you'll be done.
So?
What?
How do you feel?
You got what you wanted.
You're finally free from it all. Feels good.
Doesn't it?
I mean, you don't have to cover for us anymore, right?
Right.
Then what's the matter?
I thought you'd be happy.
I don't know. I mean, i am.
This whole thing's been one big mess for a long time, now.
I just... I hope we're doing the right thing.
Reynolds: What do you mean, she gave up?
Catherine can't give up. What the hell happened?
Look, i don't even know what i'm doing here.
I don't even know you.
Well, for what it's worth, i know you.
I mean, i know of you, heather.
I mean, your father was a good man.
Well, i don't need you telling me that.
From everything i've heard, you're not.
Catherine would kill me if she knew i was here, so let's go.
Look, look.
We need to know what happened to rebecca.
Rebecca reynolds?
Yeah, after alistair died.
What did she do? Did she... Give up?
Well, she died.
Actually, she was murdered.
What?
Oh, yeah, it was about a year or so
After alistair was killed.
It was probably the same beast.
Does... Does she know...?
Yes. Yes.
But i don't think heather fully grasps the unique...
Reynolds family connection, if you know what i mean.
He's right. I don't.
Well, you should.
Because your sister's life could very well depend on it.
Look, i-i'll admit,
I didn't believe in any connections to the past, either.
In fact, truth be told...
He tried to have vincent killed.
Reynolds: But that was before
I understood that he and catherine
Were meant to be together.
All right? I-i thought he was
Just like the other ones, a threat to her,
But i was wrong.
Okay, so what does this have to do
With rebecca and alistair?
Rebecca and alistair? Everything.
170 years ago,
They were fighting the same fights, but they lost.
Now, i believe that vincent and catherine
Are meant to pick up where they left off.
But if catherine quits,
Well, the-the same thing
That happened to rebecca when she quit,
That could happen to catherine, too.
This is crazy!
Reynolds: No, it's real.
It's in catherine's blood
The same way it's in vincent's blood.
Alistair and rebecca failed.
Vincent and catherine, they can't, don't you see?
I can't explain it, but i have seen it.
She's connected to all of this.
Which means that they are gonna come looking for her
Whether she is looking for them or not.
(whirring)
(soft grunting)
Help me.
Okay, hang in there, buddy.
Please. Okay, don't move.
It's gonna be okay. Help me.
Alton finn.
Hope dhs doesn't ask too many questions about these.
Like what?
Oh, you know,
Like what really happened with bob and carol,
How we really busted julianna,
What we really know.
We already told them what we know.
This is their case now, remember?
Which means maybe i can start focusing
On salvaging my wedding.
(phone ringing) hello.
Vincent: Hey.
Liam is going after more victims.
What are you talking about?
There aren't any more victims.
Yeah, well, try telling that to liam's hit man, okay?
Get this: I just tracked him to alton finn.
Alton?
But the serum isn't even in him anymore.
His tumor was removed. I thought he was supposed to be cured.
I know, which means liam's now going after anyone
Who's had the serum in them.
Jt.
So... Where are we?
You mean, am i on the destiny train?
Uh, yeah. That.
I don't know, jt.
I mean, i'm still getting used
To the whole beast thing, so...
Yeah, i mean, i guess anything is possible,
But you're asking me to believe that cat is somehow
Connected to all of this and that it's her destiny,
And then you want me to talk her into it.
(phone ringing) on the other hand,
If you don't believe there's a reason for all this,
Then it has to be just one big fluke,
Which is harder to believe.
Hello.
Are you all right?
Uh... Am i all right? Yeah.
Why wouldn't i be?
Is he okay? Liam attacked alton.
What? Alton?
Wait.
Why? He's-he's cured.
Who's alton?
Wait, is that heather?
You need to get out of there now.
(gunfire) jt: Get down!
Jt? What's happening?
Jt, are you all right?
This look like a fluke to you?!
I don't understand. Why do they want you?
They don't want me. They want my blood.
Wait, why? I don't know. Apparently they don't know
There's no serum left in it anymore.
Man (from other room): Move! Move!
(door slamming in other room)
Come on, come on! All right.
We got to make it to the vault. Wait, should we try and get out of here?
Something tells me they're not gonna let us do that.
Come on. Stay low. Go, go.
(automatic gunfire)
(gunfire, man yelling over video game)
(automatic gunfire)
Jt: Go, go, go. Stay low.
(heather screams)
Go. Now, now! Go, go!
Man: Hold your fire! Hold your fire!
(panting): Nicely done.
Yeah, i'm getting good at being attacked.
Now you know why i like scotch. Yeah.
Get the bag.
(siren wailing)
Any luck? No. No jt or vincent.
This is all my fault, damn it. How is this your fault?
I should've known what was going on, but i didn't.
I just wanted it all to stop.
Cat, nobody saw this coming, okay?
Jt and alton are cured.
Who would've thought liam wanted them?
I would've. If i hadn't been so hell-bent
On putting this all behind us. There's nothing wrong with that.
Unless we're already in too deep and we can't get out.
Or unless we really are a part of something bigger.
Okay, call vincent again. Where the hell is he?
(siren wailing)
Wait, why do you have a vault in your home again?
It came with the place. Used to be a bank
And then a gentlemen's club.
You know how to shoot a gun? No.
I mean, i never have before.
Learn.
Okay.
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
Old security system came with the place, too.
Hopefully, we'll see what's going on out there.
It's awfully quiet. Maybe they left?
Uh, not the way they came in.
Wait, what are those? Plastic explosives.
What does that mean?
(sighs) it means the gun won't help.
Let's get down. What?
Get back!
I said get back!
Brace yourself.
(growling)
Vincent!
(growling)
Vincent!
(gunshot) (snarls)
(panting)
Cat.
Heather: Oh, my god.
You believe in destiny now?
Jt: Look at this place.
I'm still not clear why professor forbes was a target
And how any of this is connected to liam killing julianna keaton.
We don't know. One of the many reasons
Why we gave the case back to you.
And i appreciate that, detective,
But, still, this doesn't add up.
What could possibly be the connection?
Well, that's the million dollar question, right?
Yep.
I guess it is.
We'll be in touch.
Well, that was fun.
Thank god you covered.
I didn't have much of a choice.
Actually, you did.
Does this mean you're finally back on board?
No, it means that i don't know what's right anymore.
Which is why i told vincent to leave before everyone got here.
I didn't want to raise any flags that i couldn't take down.
Sounds like the old cat to me. Just saying.
Jt: Hey. Everything all right?
Are you all right? Yeah, i think.
Although i can't figure out why liam was after my blood.
Shh, not so loud.
Where's heather? Uh, she went for a walk.
You might want to join her.
Hey.
Are you okay?
(laughing): Define "okay." (laughs)
Oh, crazy life you lead, cat.
Really crazy. Yeah, i know.
Keep trying to figure out ways to change it.
I don't think you can.
What do you mean?
Guess who i met today.
Your father.
In prison?
Yeah.
He had some pretty interesting things to say about you.
And about rebecca.
Did vincent put you up to this? No.
Jt did, actually.
He cares about you, too, cat. Everybody does.
You're lucky.
But...
I don't think that you can just quit this, cat.
I mean, look at what happened today.
It all comes back around to you,
Whether you want it to or not.
Where is this coming from?
Vincent, your friends, your ancestor,
Your... Your destiny.
I don't know.
Don't ask me to try and explain it, because i can't.
It's just... The more i think about it,
The more i realize that...
Maybe this is your path, cat,
Yours and vincent's.
For whatever reason.
¶ ¶
All right, spill.
What's the matter?
You following me?
(chuckles) don't flatter yourself.
Bartender: What can i get you?
Hi. I'll have what he's having.
Sure thing.
(sighs) so?
So... What?
Doesn't matter. It's not your problem anymore, okay?
Oh, right. 'cause the only reason i listened to you
Before we broke up was for sex.
Hey. Keep your voice down, will you?
I thought i was cured.
I really did.
Thought i was past all this... Serum stuff.
Jt, just because liam went after you
Doesn't mean you're not cured.
He was also after alton, and alton's cured.
Is he? Do you know that for sure?
Because liam wanted both of us dead for some reason.
And he sure went to a hell of a lot of trouble to try, too.
Still, you haven't had any symptoms, right?
Maybe he was just making sure, trying to cover his bases.
Maybe.
Look, bottom line is,
Just because the guy's a maniac and went all scorched earth
On you, it doesn't prove that stuff's still in you, okay?
Maybe not,
But as long as he thinks it is,
He'll still be after me, right?
¶ love you so much ¶
¶ but thoughts aren't enough ¶
¶ well, i speak ¶
¶ only of you... ¶
You realize, if we ever move,
We're gonna have to get another place with a rooftop.
Spend enough time up here, don't we?
Or not.
We've been shot at up here, attacked, attacked again.
Yeah, but we've also had romantic dinners,
Talked, kissed, made love. It hasn't been all bad.
Well, hopefully it's more of the latter
And less of the former. That's the goal, right?
Definitely. Mmm.
So how do we get there?
I don't know. I don't have an easy answer.
I thought i did.
I thought that by quitting the fight,
Handing it off to homeland security or somebody,
That that would be the answer. But clearly it is not.
Really? Because after seeing how far
Liam is willing to go, after everything he tried to do
To heather and jt, i was beginning to think
That you were right.
Now, maybe...
Maybe we can't stop him by ourselves.
I know. It's scary.
That's why i wanted to quit,
To make sure that everybody we care about
Isn't put in harm's way again, including ourselves. But...
But we're in danger anyway.
Just like rebecca was.
I'll fill you in later.
Okay. Look,
The point is that even heather's
Behind this whole greater purpose thing,
Despite what almost happened to her.
Actually, everyone's behind it, despite everything.
Does it really matter?
Because if you're not on board, then i'm not, either.
I just... I want it to end.
I want us to be able to go back to our lives and get married.
Now, i think what you originally said,
That we have a greater responsibility,
Is right, but we also have a greater responsibility
To ourselves, too.
Look, what i'm trying to say is,
I'll do whatever you want, okay, as long as we do it together.
Then let's go get liam.
Together.
¶ i guess i would leave ¶
¶ i would leave ¶ ¶ this world alone ¶
¶ 'cause without you i'm just bones. ¶
