Beauty and the Beast (2012–2016): Season 1, Episode 21 - Date Night - full transcript

ADA Gabe Lowen is hiding for the Bustamonte crime family in a Manhattan hotel suite, officially guarded by Joe's team, but really saved by Vince. He confide in Cath that he also transforms into a monster, like Vince but without spontaneous normalization, unless he takes medication, but recently builds up immunity. So he asks to swap his pills for Vince's DNA in a blood sample, which he believes to be able to extract a vital ingredient from, hoping they may help each-other. Vince refuses, although Cath admits she wants a short at a public relationship, but Gabe tracks JT down and gets his way. While Vince and Cath enjoy a normal day, JT finds the medication is far too toxic for regular use, Gabe learns of an even more daunting drawback.

- From the moment we met...
- We knew our lives

would never be the same.

He saved my life.

And she saved mine.

We're destined.
But we know it won't be easy.

Even though we have
every reason to stay apart.

We'll risk it all
to be together.

I am so in love with you.

Previously
on Beauty & the Beast...

So you were some kind
of guinea pig?

Continually being harvested



for blood and tissue.

I have been hunting Muirfield

for most of my life.

My doctor, when I was a kid,

I called her Vanessa.

My mom was your doctor?

Our shooter is actually trying
to kill Gabe,

and I'm worried
that she's with him.

Gabe is the target?

It's payback for building

a RICO case
against the Bustamonté family.

Good news is I found him,

but we got to get to him quick.





It's a good thing you and I
have been working out

because we have a rooftop pool
and Jacuzzi in our future.

I spoke to Joe,

and tomorrow we're all
rotating security detail

at the Ashcroft Hotel.
Cool.

Don't you want to know
who we're securing?

Okay, well,

who's got a hit on them

by a major drug family

who'd insist on being put up

in a five-star hotel
instead of a safe house?

Gabriel Lowan.
What are you playing on that thing?

Just looking at my calendar.

Well, speaking of calendars,

Joe's making the assignments,

and since I do have
a little bit of pull,

we're guaranteed
a good shift.

After which,
we can slip away.

Security can use the pool?

Well, when you have
an access card

and look like us, you can.

Tess, I'm-I'm ten days late.

Oh.

Don't "oh" like that.

We haven't been partners
for a while,

so maybe-maybe
we're off schedule.

Sorry, it's just my head went
to Breaking Dawn Part 2.

Okay, this isn't funny.

What would I do?

You're probably not.

It's probably just stress.

I mean, you're harboring
a half-human boyfriend.

That's stressful.

Right, stress.

I thought we were careful.

We were,

and it's probably negative,

but we will know
in three minutes.

So should we talk
about the weather?

Oh, I have
this security detail

at this fancy hotel tomorrow.

Catherine, this
can't happen.

My DNA, passing that on...

We don't know anything
for sure right now.

It's just,
even if it was genetically okay,

I'm-I'm supposed to be dead.

You know, forget
coaching Little League,

I'm a hunted man;
the child would be hunted, too.

It's just my... it's my phone.

It's a call,
it's a phone call,

um, from Gabe.

He probably wants to talk
about security detail.

You know, if you were
in this position with him...

Seriously? Right now?

Vincent, I have told you,

you have zero reason

to be jealous of him.

All right, just
take the call.

Gabe.

Hey, is everything okay?

Uh, no, it's just the...

timer on my phone.

Yeah, I will be there early,

and I will, uh,
I just got to go.

It's negative.

Okay.

Okay.

I'm sorry, okay?

I'm sorry if I just flipped out.
It's okay.

It's not like I want to have
a baby right now, either.

"Right now"?

You know what I mean.

Are you sure because
you know that

we can't ever have a baby ever.

Vincent, you and I can't even go
to a restaurant together.

Of course there is no baby.

No house, no marriage.

There are a lot
of people

in this country who can't
get married either,

and I'm not the kind of person
who needs a white picket fence

and a big rock on my finger
to be happy.

Yeah, I guess a date night
would be nice once in a while.

But we've got, uh,

rooftops and DVDs.

I don't know.

You know, maybe that's
my problem with Gabe.

You know, someone like
that could give you

all of those things, and
with me, you know, this...

I don't know, what
I'm saying is that

this is our present,

and this is our future.

As long as you are in it,

I'm good.

I wish the Bustamontés
were trying to kill me.

This place is insane.

Even the elevator
is amazing.

I can't wait for
our shift to be over,

get to the pool,
have a mai tai.

This is New York,
not Hawaii.

Okay, PMS,

but I'm ordering
you one, too.

You know, now that we know
you're not...

Hi.
Hi. Hi.

You ready to go
to the pool?

I want to go now.
Okay.

Bye. Say bye.

Have fun. Bye.

What was that?

Well, I was being friendly.

My poolside fantasy
was being threatened,

and you were salivating.

I was not salivating.

Okay, it's just...
When you realize you're never

going to have something,
you kind of look.

But I'm fine. You know,

it's not like I didn't know
what I was getting into.

No, no, see, don't
do that girl thing

where you just
say you're fine

'cause you feel like you
agreed to some terms.

Terms can change.
Tess, this isn't like you and Joe,

where you can just agree to
keep your relationship hidden

because you work for him.

For Vincent and me,
there's no changing precincts.

Okay, fine, but you know,
you still have a right

to speak up and
say what you want,

even if that's doling
out water wings.

It's not.
Good.

So you can hang out with
me in the adults-only area

drinking a mai tai.

Detectives, come in.

It's over-the-top, but
it's the most secured

hotel suite in Manhattan.
I hear you have

your own, uh,
elevator, concierge?

Yeah, but I could use
a good cup of coffee.

Vargas, there is a great
espresso bar down in the lobby.

Would you mind going
and getting me some?

You want me
to get you coffee?

Well, for all of us. On me.

It's just that when
I said I needed you

to come early,
I just meant Chandler.

There's something important
I need to talk to you about.

As long as you're buying,
I'm fine walking around,

pretending to be a guest here.

So what's so important?

First,

a list of witnesses

from Bustamonté-related
drug cases.

I thought you could go back,

interview some.
Okay.

But the reason I called you
here is I wanted to ask you

about that guy you were with,

the one who helped you kill
the sniper.

I was alone.

Really? You want to do this?

Because I can go back
and run prints,

or better, DNA.

Okay.

Um, that was my boyfriend.

I know what he is.

Look, I'm not gonna expose him.

I just want to meet him.

I'm sorry, I told you,
I don't...

Catherine, after everything

I shared with you
about Muirfield

and what they did to me,
now you're gonna lie to my face?

I'm not.

I saw what he did to that sniper

at the barn.
I told you,

I don't know
what you're talking about.

Yes, you do.

Gabe, okay, just calm down.

I need to talk to him.

A gun?

Gabe, please stop.

You're shaking, too.

I'm just...

I'm just surprised.

Of course you are.

I'm not gonna hurt you,

but putting the gun down might,
you know,

help keep the heat down.

This is what Muirfield
did to you?

Those procedures
you told me about

when my mom was your doctor?

Yes.

But you were four.

You've been like this since?

How do you function?

I have medication.

Medication?

It stops my DNA

from expressing itself.

Where do you get
something like that?

Your mom.

And later, as
I got older,

I learned to synthesize
a version for myself,

but it hasn't been working
as well.

I seem to have developed
a bit of a resistance, clearly.

This is why I need to
speak to your boyfriend.

I think he can help me.

I don't think
my boyfriend can...

He can. For so long,

I thought I was the only one

and that Muirfield had
gotten rid of all the others,

but then I got wind of homicides
coming out of your precinct

with cross-species DNA.

So I got hold of some samples,
and I studied them.

Look, his DNA has properties
that mine doesn't.

Okay, if we could
just swap samples.

Gabe.

I know I spearheaded
the task force,

and you have no reason
to trust me,

but I was just trying
to find him.

His DNA may be able

to help me wean
off of these meds.

I want to help you, I do.

But you're still protecting him.
I get it.

But I may be able to help him,
too.

I got you a ten-dollar
caffe con panna to try.

Gabe has corrupted DNA.

Excuse me?
Yeah. He's stable

right now, but his eyes
are yellow, and, uh...

What, is Gabe like Vincent?

What is this,
the zombie apocalypse?

The only person that can go in
there is Tyler, his girlfriend.

She's bringing his
meds to make him normal,

and until then, you can't
bring him any coffee.

I'm in here.

I know it's not a luxury

movie cinema yet,

but we have a full supply
of Red Vines.

Yeah, I'm fine
with whatever.

What's going on?

Okay, this is gonna sound crazy,
but I know why

you've been feeling weird
around Gabe.

He finally made a move on you.

No, Vincent, um,

those procedures
that Muirfield did on him,

they changed his DNA,
just like they did with you.

Wait, how do you know this?
He told you?

No, I saw it.
I-I saw him change.

What are you talking about?

His eyes,

they turned yellow, his veins...

It all makes
sense why my mom

was his doctor,
why he hates Muirfield.

It makes sense?
The guy's an ADA.

Courtroom's a pretty
high-pressure situation.

He would have mauled
a defendant by now.

Except he has medication.

Vincent,
he takes pills

to keep him under control.

Maybe they would work on you.

Wait, I'm sorry, medication?

I know, and I don't know

how it works or what it does,

but he goes to work every day,

and he's fine.

And he wants to meet you,
and you could ask him about it.

You told him about me?
No, of course I didn't.

He figured it out.

What, that I'm the vigilante,
that we're connected?

He is not looking
to bring you in.

He's thinks that
you can help him.

Maybe you can help each other.

How?

Okay, he's studied your DNA.

Apparently, you each
have properties

that might be beneficial.

Catherine, this is the guy that
spearheaded the task force

to hunt me down, okay?
It's a trap.

For all we know, they could be
yellow contact lenses.

I know what I saw.

I'm suspicious, too, but every
day on that task force,

it was Gabe who kept insisting
on bringing you in alive.

How sweet of him.

It isn't sweet at all.

His-His medication isn't working
as well as it used to.

So much for magic pills, huh?

You should at least talk to him.

What, at a public hotel?
In a suite

with a private elevator,
no cameras,

Tess is guarding the door.

Vincent, from the first time
we talked,

you said that you were trying
to find something

to keep you from...

Okay, but what about Muirfield?

There'd be less risk of exposing
yourself to them.

Maybe we could

actually go to a movie
or a hotel pool,

and we wouldn't need
to worry about

something
setting you off.

You know,
I thought that you said

that you were okay with...
all of this.

Vincent, I am,

but aren't you curious?

This is the guy that you
held up to be someone

who could give me more,

and it turns out that he's...
exactly like you.

So you want
to go to a movie theater?

Don't you?

Private elevator
and garage?

It's a presidential suite
made for presidents.

And Gabe, apparently.

Tyler, where the hell are you?

You know, it'd be
kinda fun

to stay in a place
like this someday.

I did tell you they have
a rooftop pool?

Yes.

What?
Gunshots.

I didn't hear...

That I heard.

Gabe? Gabe?!

Oh, my God.

Where's Gabe?

He's not here.

How'd he get
out of here?

The only way out is that way.

So wait, he's all
creatured out,

on the loose on the
streets of Manhattan?

I think so.

Security's gonna be here
any minute.

What are we gonna
tell them?

What are we
gonna tell them?

Well, this guy shot at Gabe,
and Gabe fought him off.

He'll say that
there was another attacker.

And the roar the entire
hotel must've heard?

What, he had the volume up
on Animal Planet?

That's actually a good idea.
They're coming.

Okay, see if you can find him
before he hurts anyone else.

Okay.

I just wanted
to go swimming today.

Secure it. Secure it.

Stand down.

The suspects are G.O.A.

Really? Where's the ADA?

It's Joe.

It's Vargas.

I just got a call
from the hotel.

What the hell is going on
over there?

Uh, yeah, we had a bit
of a situation,

but everybody seems
to be okay.

Just tell me Lowan is okay.

Um...

That's not telling me he's okay.

Joe, it's Chandler.
Lowan's been kidnapped.

What?! You guys were on him!

He wanted privacy, so...

Did Vargas drag you up
to the pool?

No.
Did he just ask...?

Good new is, we have the body
of one of the attackers.

Give me that.

Joe, I wasn't at the pool, okay?

I don't really care.

Roll prints on our dead guy,

find me some connection
to the Bustamontés,

since that's probably who's got
him, and until we know

more, you make sure
this stays in-house.

Is that his phone?

It's Gabe's girlfriend.
She might know where he went.

Tyler, it's Detective Chandler.

What's going on?
They're saying I can't come up.

Is Gabe okay?

Look, I know that you were out
to get his meds.

Does that mean that you are
aware of what they're for?

Oh, my God, is that what
happened up there?

Did anybody see him?

He escaped before
anyone got here.

I'm the only one who knows.

Do you have any idea
where he is?

No, he's never been out in
the world in this state before.

His medication hasn't been
working that well and...

He told me, but he must've
come down by now.

Once he's in this state,

there is no coming down.
There isn't?

Not without his meds.

Okay, do you have them on you?

Yeah.

Okay, don't move.
I'll be right there.

Okay, quit worrying about
meeting Sara's parents.

We got a bigger problem
on our hands.

Like there's someone else

in the world now
with corrupted DNA.

Oh, God, she is pregnant?

No, Gabe.

Gabe got her pregnant?

Gabe is the one
with corrupted DNA.

Where's the tranq gun?

I'm sorry, what?

Apparently Muirfield did
experiments on him

when he was a child.

He's a "suit."
How does he even function?

He claims he's got pills.

Pills? What kind of pills?

JT, I don't know, okay? I just
found out about it myself.

We spent ten years,
what did we miss?

All I know is that he is
at-large in New York City.

You know,
Muirfield gave it

to him when
he was a kid.

That's, like, 20 years earlier
than when you got it.

It must've been
a different cocktail.

He's like a First Gen.

Yeah, First Gen. Great,
now where's the tranq?

Uh, in the box
with the kitchen stuff.

Oh, my God,
I can't go to dinner

with Sara's parents.
It's not even safe.

It was the Bustamontés.

They're the ones
who just shot at Gabe.

He's probably stalking them
right now.

It's one of Bustamonté's
friends from Gabe's files.

You getting
anything?

Rubber, gasoline,
vinegar.

That's what they use
to break down heroin.

It's a drug gang,

$25 million in
transactions a year.

Speaking of, I got Gabe's meds
from his girlfriend.

She said he needs,
like, ten of them,

but there's more
than that.

So maybe we can give one
to JT to analyze.

Actually, JT just
pointed out

that Gabe's, like,
First Gen and I'm...

Okay, it's like a,
an old smart phone

versus a new one;
they don't even use the same plug.

Well, it's worth a shot.

Catherine, I thought
you were fine

with the way
things are now.

Why are you being so negative
about this?

I'm not. I just...
I don't want you

to get your hopes up, okay?

I'm fine if this doesn't work.

Really? Because the minute
you found out about Gabe,

you're off your post,
you're dragging me

to some high-security hotel.
I thought that

you would want to know about it.
Or maybe it's

because you want the things
that I can't give you,

and you thought this would be
the answer.

Vincent, I keep telling you
I don't need a picket fence.

But I do need
a guy

who's going to at least try
to have a future.

Something's up there.

Gabe?

I don't know,
but it's not human.

Okay. You go that way,
I'll go around the other side.

Who the hell are you?

Hey, I was just, uh,
I was looking for someone.

Okay, trust me, man,
you want to let me go.

This some kind of retaliation?

No, but there might be some
coming your way.

Sounds like a threat.

Just a warning.

Someone else
back there?

There was.

Tess just found another address
in Gabe's files.

It was written on hotel
stationery,

so he probably just wrote
it down today.

It's your place.

What? How does he know
where I live?

Wait.

Tracking device.
He must've planted it this morning.

Of course, coming
to my precinct, the task force.

Gabe's primal drive isn't
to go after the Bustamontés.

It's to go after you.

Um, I'm just,
I'm not feeling great,

and I don't want...

I don't want to get you
and your parents sick.

Um, hold on.
I got a call waiting.

Hey.

Hey, you at home? You gotta get
out of there right now.

Gabe is after me, and he
probably doesn't look

like an ADA right now.

Oh, God. Uh, okay. Um, okay.

Sara?

Oh, that's right, he took it.

Nothing, um...

I just can't find the...

I gotta call you back.

I'm not the one you're looking
for. My DNA's real boring.

How about we just relax,
talk this out?

Easy fella.

Vincent, it's not working.

I know.

New rule: No one takes the tranq
gun unless we have a spare.

You okay?

Yeah.

I just think
until about a minute ago, I...

I was still telling myself
it's contact lenses.

Vargas.

Okay, don't react,

because he's not exactly
in a state

to come back to the precinct
yet, but we found Gabe.

Oh, thank God.

Sorry, not reacting,
it's just...

Joe's been giving me crap
all day,

like this is my fault.

What were you supposed to do,
guard the 47th story window?

Well, he's just stressed out

and taking it out on me

'cause he thinks he can.

But you know what? He can't.

I won't say anything
about finding Gabe.

Let him sweat it out.

- Okay. I'll call you later.
- All right.

You're going to save some
of that to analyze, right?

He and Gabe are
different generations.

Yes, I understand
the whole phone analogy,

but in the end,
they're both phones, so...

DNA is not a fancy gadget
made in China.

I know that you guys
worked on a cure for years,

but now there's someone else
with corrupted DNA, too.

You don't know what
it was like back then.

I gave him stuff
to just "explore"

that nearly killed him.

Okay, so what if

we just run the labs first?

Why can't you just be fine

with the way things are now?

I am.

But I really don't think
that he should have to believe

that this is his only future.

I don't understand why
you're not jumping at this.

This is what you guys
have been working for,

for ten years.

He spent every hour

of every day
searching for a cure.

He failed, over and over,

till he was so filled
with self-loathing

you wouldn't have
recognized him.

And I gave him hell for
quitting, but looking back,

it was the right thing for him.

He finally grieved
his normal self,

got to a place of acceptance.

Do you really want
to unravel that?

How you guys doing in here?
'Cause I think he's waking up.

What happens if he wakes up
and it doesn't work?

Look.

It works.

On him.

Gabe, it's Catherine.

This is JT.

I'm the one
you almost had for a snack.

And that is...
Vincent.

He's the one you're looking for.

I, um... I hope I didn't, um...

do anything.

Uh, you did.

I'm sorry about that.

I'm not aware
when I'm like that.

You're not conscious
when you're...?

- No.
- You were conscious

when you put that
tracking device on Catherine.

I was just desperate
to find you.

If you're looking for stronger
meds, he doesn't have any.

I'm looking for help.

Don't know how we can
help you with that,

because it seems you've got
everything under control.

You got meds to function...

you don't really have
to hide from Muirfield.

You think you got
the short end of the stick?

You walk around like yourself
most of the time, right?

Without any meds?

If I didn't take mine...

Well, you saw.

I'd be out of control
all the time.

And you said they're not working

as well anymore, right?

I'm developing a resistance,

and fast. Unless
something changes...

Be a pretty scary ADA.

I will end my life
before it gets to that.

Okay, so how do
I fit into this?

You said Vincent's DNA has
different properties than yours.

You want my DNA?

Just a blood sample.

The cocktail that Muirfield

gave your unit
has something in it

that stabilizes your DNA.

I want to see if
I can separate that out,

get it to replicate
in my own cells.

Then he wouldn't need
the medication.

Look, I don't know what
stabilizers you think I've got,

but I can't control it
when it happens.

Which is why I live

here in hiding,
why I just killed someone

trying to look for you,
and why...

why this is my future.

Well, from where
I stand,

I'd choose your future
over mine.

Look, I don't know if
it'll work, but I am happy

to give you
some of my meds to try.

Consider it a fair trade?

Vincent, can I talk to you
for a second?

Yeah.

What I said before,

about needing someone
who's going to try...

you've already tried
for ten years.

So you don't have to do
this for me. I'm fine.

Okay, look,
I appreciate you saying this...

I'm not just saying it.

You heard him.

The stuff they put in him,
it's different.

You guys, you're different.

In a lot of ways.

It might not work.

I don't know,
it could make you worse.

Is this what you've been
talking to JT about?

It isn't worth the risk.

Are you trying to manage
my emotional roller coaster?

A little.

Okay.

Look, after what we just saw,

there's no going back, okay?

The car's already
going up the tracks.

But if it doesn't work,

and I've unraveled you...

It doesn't matter.

This time, I got you in my life.



♪ Bite chunks out of me

♪ You're a shark
and I'm swimming ♪

♪ My heart still thumps
as I bleed ♪

♪ And all your friends...

Well, I know I get a metallic
taste in my mouth.

Do you have a metallic taste
in your mouth?

Yeah, I do.

Well, that's a sign
that it's in your system

at sufficient levels.

Oh, about that chop shop...

Oh, my God, I meant to tell you
about that.

You've been a little busy.

I figured you were there
looking for me,

which is why I told Joe that's
where the kidnappers took me.

And that your altercation

with Chewy Bustamonté

gave me the distraction
I needed to escape.

Okay, that guy's name is Chewy?

Hey, ask him about the body.

Oh, I took care of that, too.

Some other guy jumped me,

I had to defend myself.

He took the fall for us.

Well, it's the least I could do.

Thanks.

Okay, this is so weird.

It's... you guys can
hear each other

and you're not even
on speakerphone.

Hey, Gabe, how long

does the pill last for?

Well, I know for me,

uh, with my resistance,

it lasts four hours, tops.

In your case, you may get
as many as 12.

Who knows, but that's
where I started.

Still plenty of time to have

a decent night out.

Now I gotta go talk
to the press,

tell them how I plan to put away
the Bustamontés.

He's not bad for a suit.

And so begins
a very unique bromance.

Okay, enough.

So, what do you want to do?

We've got 12 hours until
I turn back into a pumpkin.

I was thinking maybe we could
have that date night

we've been talking about?

Movie?

I have something
better in mind.



There's a lot of people.

Not really.

You still have
that metallic taste?

Yeah.

It's not like Muirfield's

gonna be at a hotel pool,
so we're good.

We're just a normal couple
going for a swim.

Catherine, I can't swim.

I'm kidding.

Well, I could go
and buy you

some water wings
in the gift shop.

I kind of think we spent enough
at the gift shop, don't you?

You know, I haven't been
in a pool for over a decade.

this will be the first
of many date nights.

We can go to a restaurant,
a baseball game...

I have tomorrow off.

We could have Red Vines
in an actual movie theater.

Interesting.

You go with Red Vines, and...

I'm going along more with
the thought of, uh...

a picket fence.

Are you teasing me?

No.

I'm not, I want it.

I want us to be
in a relationship

that's moving
forward to something.

I do. And I just,
I couldn't admit it before

because it wasn't
even a possibility.

I want it, too.

Ah, so you were lying.

I wasn't lying.

I just didn't know
that's what I wanted.

I've never wanted

to have a future with someone
before I found you.

And all it takes is
a luxury pool, and she's in.

Yes, I am completely
materialistic and shallow,

and I just want you
as my Sugar Daddy.

Oh, hold up, I might
have to get a job first.

Right, sorry.

I should probably take things
a little more slowly.

You know what?

I don't want to take
things slowly.

Vincent,

like you said,
this doesn't solve everything.

There's still Muirfield...
And you're a cop,

you could put us
into witness protection.

It doesn't matter.

Right now, all that matters

is that we are here.

It is a pretty sweet pool.

It's not just the pool.

I mean, I'm out.

You know,
I don't have to worry about

being provoked by something
or someone or...

if I'm in control.

I can relax.

And I can be with you.

Excuse me, Ms. Chandler?

Um, we have an access card.

There's a call
on the house phone for you.

How's the water?

Heated? Salt?

Hey, JT, what's going on?

You know how chemo can get rid
of cancer cells,

but also make you insanely sick?

Well, these pills are like that
times 1,000 for Vincent.

He keeps taking them,

they'll kill him in...

two, three years, tops.

But Gabe's been taking them
since he was a kid.

And like I warned you,

Gabe's a different generation.

It affects him differently.

Okay. Can you not talk to me
like I'm five?

Sorry,

Sara just yelled at me
for bailing on dinner.

And I'm disappointed, too.

I know.

You know what--
you've had to break

the bad news to him
enough times.

This one's on me-- I'll do it.

Is everything okay?

Yeah, but he said
they work, right?

Vincent, it's
not worth it.

What, come on, three good years

of us doing stuff like this?

That's more of a future
than we had this morning.

No, it isn't.

Yes...

I want those things,
but not without you.

I'm just, I'm so sorry
that I pushed you

and took you up
the roller coaster.

I'm fine.

Don't say "fine."

That's what I say
when I'm not fine.

Yeah, I noticed.

Okay, what if I just take them

once a week, or a month.

Uh, special occasions.

I'm really gonna enjoy
a special occasion knowing

that you've taken something
that is killing you.

Vincent, you have
to swear to me that

you're not gonna
take another pill.

Okay.

No, swear.

I swear, okay?

Okay.

Now, I probably got

five good hours left.

So can we just enjoy it?

Yeah.

I don't really want
to go swimming anymore

but we can go to my place.

My sister's out
for the night.

Perfect.

Vincent?

Not so fun, is it, huh?

Let him go.

You didn't...

It's been over 12 hours.

Yeah.

I just wanted to go to
the movies with you.

You should leave.

And considering you
took another pill,

you should probably
take the stairs.

Okay.

I'm about to meet
with someone.

Okay, well, that can
wait five minutes.

Look, I get that
you can't give me

special treatment
'cause we're supposed to be,

you know, "in the closet,"
but I'm not fine

with you taking out
your stress on me.

You shouldn't be.
Just because we're sleeping together.

I mean, what,

is that just your way
of trying to prove

to everyone there's
nothing going on here?

Yes.
Or, you know, maybe now

that we're involved,

you just don't respect me
anymore as a cop.

Tess, I said yes.

You don't respect me anymore?

I'm trying... to make sure

that every time I look at you,

everyone in this whole
damn precinct can't see

all over my face
that I am madly...

wildly in love with you.

I love you.

Lieutenant?

Special Agent
Reynolds, FBI.

Can I have a minute?
Fine.

And don't ever do that again.

Okay?

Okay.

Transfer order
for the Bustamonté assassin.

The guy with the
window pane in his gut.

What's the FBI want with him?

It's a connected case.

Confidential.

Haven't seen you guys
in a while.

When was that?

Those three vics in the subway?

Rings a bell.

Have a good day, Lieutenant.

I have to finish
making my statement,

so apologize fast.

I'm sorry.
Very funny.

Yeah, well, at
least the pill

didn't take away
my sense of humor.

Look, Cat, the reason I took it

is because I really do
want a future with you.

A normal future with you.

And I want a future
with you, too.

But I don't care if it's normal,

I just care that you're in it.

Vincent, I love you
the way you are,

and I don't need you
to be cured.

I just need you to not give up.

Because I do see
a future for us

that's not just in your hideout.

And I know that you're afraid
of the roller coaster...

No, it's not just that.

Okay, I was worried, if...

I tried a cure, and it didn't
work out, you would think

that I might be
like this forever.

You know, that-that
future you want

wouldn't be possible and...

I don't know, you might leave.

I'm not going anywhere.

I am in the car
with you for all the...

ups and downs
and loop-de-loops.

"Loop-de-loops"?

Oh, okay, well,

in that case I will keep trying.

And if it doesn't work out...

it's okay.

But at least we can fantasize.

Fantasize?

That's what was
so fun about the pool.

We... it wasn't the setting,

it was getting to think
about our future.

And we don't need a pill

or a magnetic access card
to do that.

Well, in that case,

I can fantasize about our
eight cross-species children

right here in the alley.
Okay.

Three--
let's just say three.

And a dog.

Okay, a small dog because
those big dogs,

they don't really like me.
Okay, three

and a small dog.

But if you take another pill,

I'm taking the kids
and the dog.

♪ You're my guiding light

♪ You're my
guiding light. ♪

Hi, handsome.

Hey.

We celebrating
or drowning our sorrows?

We're splitting
the difference.

I ran the test on
Vincent's blood.

It'll work.

I'll drink to that.

Just one minor detail.

What you need from him...

he won't survive.

Whatever it takes.
