Beauty and the Beast (2012–2016): Season 1, Episode 7 - Out of Control - full transcript

Cat learns the truth about Vincent's blackouts and thinks he may be involved in the brutal murder of a local college fraternity brother.

Nine years ago,
I witnessed my mother's murder.

I would have been killed, too,
if it hadn't been for vincent.

You're him.

I just found...
Six cases of you

Trying to save victims
around the city.

You're not a monster.

Who are you making yourself
look so pretty for?

And if I said you?

Well, that'd be nice.

Surprise!

I just don't want



To complicate things, you know?

We're friends. We work together.

It's just one kiss.

Right.

Vincent, I want to have you
over for dinner.

I'll have dinner ready by 8:00.

Unless there's something else
holding you back.

I hope to see you there.

I can't remember
what happened last night.

You fugued out.
Fugued out?

You're up and walking around,
but it's like you got amnesia.

Handbook chapter 3:

Try to not look giddy
when approaching a murder scene.

I seriously doubt I look giddy.

We'll get back to that.

Frat party, couple sneaks out

To make nasty in the bushes,

Finds a cut-up
fraternity brother.

How long's he been here?

They're doing a prelim.

Speaking of hot brothers...

The firefighters calendar

Launch party tonight.
Okay,

You didn't seriously just use
that as a segue, did you?

Two tickets to the party.

Sorry, but I have

Plans already.

Yeah, you know what? You
actually do have plans, and

They're called mr. July
and mr. October.

Give me one good reason
besides your old favorite

"I have to run an errand."

The tough questions about your
elusive life these days?

It's just a casual thing, right?

I'll be back

Before nightfall.
Hopefully

Not alone.

All right.

Wingman invite accepted.

Making out in the bushes
just isn't what

It used to be.

Vic is derek moore.
Narrowed down the time

Of death between midnight
and 1:00 a.M.

I found a short trail of blood
on the sidewalk

That veers up into the lawn.

He managed to make it this far
after the attack before he died?

Yeah, but thanks to
the extremely efficient
sprinkler system,

The true crime scene's gonna be
next to impossible to find.

Blood trail's been washed away.

I blacked out again.

Frontal cortex

Has maintained a steady
algorithm over the last hour.

No sign of hypotension.

I don't get it.

You know, it's like
I'm sleepwalking or something.

And I know it's not due
to low blood sugar,

So what is triggering it?

The trigger's unclear.

Everything seems
normal-ish, but...

You're showing signs
of dissociative amnesia.

You don't remember
what you're doing,

And...

You're clearly doing something.

Okay, I don't think
you should be around me.

If I don't know what I'm doing,

And then I...
You're not

Gonna hurt me.

But just in case,

I have backup.

Stings a little
but it's the best

Night's sleep you'll ever have.

Good.

But you're not the only one
I'm worried about.

I think it's safe to say

You'll need
an indefinite rain check

On your camping weekend, but...

We can't tell catherine.
I can't

Keep another secret from her.

Just until we know
what we're dealing with.

If you think things are good,

I seriously suggest you actually
listen to me this time.

I know you don't want
to believe this, but...

If catherine thinks you're too
dangerous, too out of control,

She's gonna reach a point
where she has to turn you in.

I know she wouldn't
do that, okay?

We have to tell her.
Okay.

Let's not forget that we have

A much bigger problem
on our hands.

If that wasn't your blood,

Whose was it?

I don't know.

All I remember is that
I was walking past

Northam campus on my way
to Catherine's, okay?

It must have been
just after midnight.

And all of a sudden,

You know, I started
to feel light-headed

And then... And then
I don't remember.

It's happening.

Do you feel any...

Vincent?

Vincent,

No!

Vincent, stop!

Vincent!

Hey!

Is everything okay?
I heard a crash.

You got to be kidding me.

Jt?

Hello?

I'll be right there.

Jt?

Is everything okay?

Yes, yes.

Here.

He's not here.

Wh-where is he?

It's the middle of the day.

Probably on a rooftop somewhere.

I don't know.
You know vincent.

Huh.

You know what?

I have to get back to northam.

Could you just let him
know that I got

Roped into something
by my partner tonight,

So I'm gonna have to push
our trip to tomorrow.

Hope that's okay.
Yeah. N-northam?

Did-did something happen
on campus?

Yeah, a m... A murder.

Fraternity brother.
Pretty gruesome.

What time?

Just after midnight. Why?

No, I j... I have
colleagues there.

Just... Curious.

Busy night for murders or...?

No. Pretty slow, actually.

Just this and a gang hit
in the bowery.

Jt, are you okay?

Yeah, I've...

Just the...
The campus thing, it...

Hits close to home.

Always wonder when
it's gonna be you.

Anyway...

I'll tell vincent
you stopped by.

For sure.

Good seeing you.

Okay.

Any luck tracking down
Derek's grudge list?

No enemies have surfaced yet,

But I'm about to have some
face time with his girlfriend.

She didn't do it.
She has an alibi...

Study group, chem 102.
Don't remind me.

That's when I decided
to become a lawyer.

Yeah? How's that
working out for you?

The 401 plan and fancy
expense account are great,

And it's awesome spending
weekends on my yacht,

Thanks for asking.
Lab results should be in.

I'm gonna head to the morgue.

Looks like
the morgue found you.

What is this,
bring your buddy to work day?

Cat, peter. Peter, cat.

Intern program.
Criminology grad student.

Don't look at me.
It wasn't my choice.

Joe signed off on it.

Cat, is it?
Peter Hollingsworth.

The third.

I want to show you something

On Derek's body.

Peter, you know what would be

Really helpful? If you could
go and get the report

From the first investigators
on the scene

And see if it mentions anything

About the postmortem stain.

They put that in the report?

That is so cool.

Feel free to take your time.

My god, you have a fan boy.

Cause of death:

Excessive bleeding
from multiple lacerations.

Now, we're going to run
his clothes to see if we find

Any dna other than Derek's.

And we found splinters embedded
deeply in the palm of his hand.

Maybe he was defending himself
with something.

You were so right.

Postmortem stain.
You really pegged it.

Rad.

Totally rad.

So, catherine, this is what I
thought you'd find interesting.

At first, I was inclined
to write it off as a cut.

Maybe he snagged his ankle
on a rock or something, but...

Looks like a check mark.

It is, and I've seen
one like it before.

Carved into another body?

I haven't been able
to remember where,

But I've started
to pull old files.

He was in a fraternity.

Maybe it was
an initiation. Hazing.

Look, I don't know
what else to tell you.

Maybe a hazing ritual
went wrong.

Wouldn't be the first time.

You want to tell us
about initiation?

We don't really make
that kind of thing public.

We all take an oath here.

Okay.

You have any enemies?

Maybe a rival house?

Derek was a leader,
a pledge master.

The guys here...
they all looked up to him.

He was one of my best bros.

You seem pretty mellow for a guy
whose best bro just got killed.

I smoked a bowl this morning.

You want to arrest me, go ahead.

My dad's a partner
at lange and wallace.

Partner. Must
be a nice yacht.

I'm late for class.

Excuse me.

Hey.

Any reason
you're playing I spy?

We could use some help
catching whoever did this.

He was your brother. That's
got to matter to somebody.

It does, but I'm new here,
and I took an oath...

Okay, enough
with the frickin' oath.

We're not asking you
for your secret handshake.

But if you could
point us to somebody

Who might have had a bone
to pick with derek.

Want to explain?

It's all the pledges.

When we accept a bid,
we sign our names.

It's tradition.

And the names that
get crossed out?
Dropouts.

Why would someone drop?

They can't hack it,
but I'd rather go through

With initiation than deal
with the fallout of bailing.

Fallout as in...?

Let's just say,

I wouldn't be checking
my facebook page much

If I chickened out.

It can get kind of brutal.

Public disgrace
and humiliation.

Joys of male bonding.

Any idea where bradley is?

No one's seen him around campus

Since he left the house.

You don't need it.

Tell that to my vertebrae

And the concrete wall
that realigned them.

I didn't?

You did.

You didn't know what you were
doing, so no guilt, but,

I mean, toss me across the room

Like a sack of flour once,
shame on you.

I am so sorry.
Are you okay?
I'll live.

But these new
terminator episodes

Take things
to a whole new level.

Okay, I cannot leave
this building

Until we figure out
how to control it.

What did you find?

It's not pretty.

So, basically,

When you're in terminator
trance, it looks like

Your frontal lobe is repressed.

Like the functions

That would normally
give you control over

Your emotions, compassion,
and all the...

Touchy-feely stuff.

Okay, what else?

What?

Jt, what is it?

You have anything
against frat guys?

No. Why?

Catherine's
investigating a murder

That happened
right when you were blacked out.

Same part of town, same hour.

Died of multiple lacerations.

Kind of like... Claws.

Okay.

Hey. March,

Right?

Yes, ma'am, that's right.

Big fan of your work.

She means your charity work.

It's a great cause.

Abs aren't bad, either.
Tess.

What? We're female cops. We
get objectified all the time.

Besides, you don't
mind, do you?

Okay. I'm gonna...

I'm gonna go
check out the buffet.

See ya.

Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi.

February?

Really? Who doesn't
love February?

It's so... Cozy.

So, July.

July's a great month.

November is great.

It's got thanksgiving
and everything.

Hey.

Hi.
Mike.

Mike strickland.

I'm September.
Thanks.

How do they decide the months,
anyway?

Do they look at you and go,

"you look like fall,
but not like late fall?"

Weren't you on the beat
in the 98th three years back?

You were first on the scene
of that tour bus.

Right. You saved that kid
with glasses who was trapped.

Yeah, he's in the sixth grade
now. He still sends me letters.

Well, um... Good memory.

I'm gonna go and work the room,

Or whatever I'm supposed
to be doing.

Okay. Good luck.

I wasn't hiding
or anything, ma'am.

I was at my parents.

Ma'am? Ouch.

You realize we don't like that
till we're, like, 50, right?

Sorry. I don't really know how
to talk to, you know... Cops.

Lady cops.

Can you tell us why
you dropped out of the Delts?

You obviously pledged
for a reason.

You were the only one to drop.
Couldn't handle the pressure?

Look, derek had this coming,

But I didn't do it.

I was playing Deathwatch PVP.

I'm sorry?

It's, player versus player

With graphical interface.

You know, we had five guys
with picture lock on each other.

What do you mean,
"derek had it coming to him?"

He's a complete sadist.

I mean, I know
initiation is supposed to be

About jackass,
old-school bonding stuff,

But derek would literally
beat me with a paddle.

You should have run
when you had a chance.

I'm gonna teach you
what it means to be a brother.

You're gonna beg
for freaking mercy, bro.

Like walton bell tower
never saw.

I am gonna make you weep.

Who's walton?

It's a what.

The walton bell tower
on campus.

It's where most of
the fun went down.

Were all the hazing
rituals done there?

Pretty much.

Actual crime scene?

Derek wasn't attacked
where he was found.

Tech triangulated the call.

Came from a quadrant of campus

Midway between the party
derek left and that tower.

Why would you leave a party
alone in the middle of the night

And go halfway across campus?

And head to a hazing tower.

He made it sound like
he was meeting you there.

Up there? In the middle
of the night? No way.

It sounded like
he thought he was.

Maybe someone used your name

To lure him there?

Maybe said you'd reconsidered.

That you were coming back
to the house.

And meeting him at walton tower.

I rest my case.

Still no closer to
understanding guys.

Looks like we found
the actual scene of attack.

Is that a saddle shoe?

I didn't know those
came back into style.

I'll call our location in.

Vincent? Why are you here?

I'm so sorry.

I followed you.

What are you doing?

I thought we were going
to meet tonight.

Tonight can't happen.

I'm sorry. I-I really
wanted to get away

From all of this with you...

But, things have changed.

No. I understand.

No, I don't think you do.

I need to tell you something.

The killer
that you're after...

He might be me.

In a minute we'll know
if the blood

From the tower matches
what vincent tracked in.

Hey?
Yeah?

Hey, um, I'm so sorry
about this weekend.

That doesn't matter right now.

You didn't ask for this.

Vincent, you did
not murder derek.

Even when you're not yourself,
you do the right thing.

I kill people, too,
and you know it.

I wish that I could tell you

That normally,
this wasn't my life, but...

I'm not going anywhere.

Trust me.

Okay.

Derek was on his way
across campus.

We think that he was sent there
by someone at the party.

One of his fraternity brothers?

Or at least one of the pledges.

Derek was brutal during hazings.

Tess is running
all their profiles.

Good, because one of them
is your perp.

Most likely.

The blood samples don't match.

Vincent didn't do it.

Okay,

But I had someone's blood on me.

Whose was it?

What's that?

I'm scanning through
old cases from last year.

I know that I've seen
this strange check mark

Somewhere before.

A-ha.

My gosh, you were right.

Another body found on campus
almost a year ago.

Looks like we're
no longer talking

About one isolated homicide.

You got all that
from one check mark?

Obviously the check mark
is a calling card

The killer is leaving behind,
targeting college students.

No. Hang on.

She wasn't even
officially a victim.

She was a cadaver
from the campus anatomy lab.

"Campus security
found the cadaver

"lying on the steps
of the old science block

With a fresh check mark
carved into her embalmed flesh."

They wrote it off
as a sick prank.

That's amazing that
you remembered that photo.

So the cadaver was
practice, perhaps.

For a real murder?

A year later.

You never know what triggers
these guys to take the big step.

I need you to double-check
the eta on those lab results.

Cool.

Where are you going?

Our killer had to have
access to the lab

Where the cadaver was from.

I'm going to have them
pull the student roster

For that semester,

And then I'm gonna check out
the actual crime scene.

Please tell me
you got something new.

I'm at the bell tower.
Been too busy with the body

To actually survey the true
crime scene that you found.

Our killer left that check mark

As a calling card,

So there's probably other clues.

What did you make of that ball?

Seemed like some kind
of throwback ritual

That was part of
initiation tradition.

Brothers didn't give us much.

Yeah, it's almost as if
the scene's been staged

For some reason.

Look, I had seen
that check mark before.

I think our killer
made a practice run

Several months ago.

Practice run?

On a cadaver here on campus.

I put a call in
to get a roster... Agh!

Evan?

Evan, are you okay?

Evan!

Evan! Evan!

Whoever this sob was,

He was bold enough
to kidnap one of our own.

We're in a race
against the clock.

Found Evan's phone
in the bell tower.

From what he told me,
we're looking for someone

Who was planning this murder
for a while now.

We think this cadaver
was a trial run.

It got into Evan's computers.

This picture was the last window
that was opened.

Looks like our perp
did a test on a cadaver

From the campus anatomy lab
several months ago.

Think he took the plunge
and made his first real kill

With this fraternity kid?

That's what it looks like.

I'm circulating
a list of students

Who had access
to the northam cadaver lab

The semester
of the first incident.

Evan had requested it
before he was kidnapped.

We pulled it from his emails.

If our perp sticks close
to campus, why take evan?

What's this psycho's mo?

We don't have motive
for Derek's attack,

But for evan,
it seemed pretty simple.

Close to what?
The guy's stuck in a morgue.

But he was taken from
the crime scene on campus.

Wait a minute.

What's the name of
Evan's new intern?

Peter something, the third.

Hollingsworth?

From northam university.

That's why he knew
evan was onto him.

To come to a precinct,
into our own lab

That's investigating
the murders he committed?

What if the whole thing
was planned?

What better way
for a criminology student

To follow his first kill

All the way through
the whole process?

He asked for an internship
in the precinct

Where he knew
Derek's body would end up.

Okay, okay, I'll put out an apb.

We got our perp.
Let's get this sob.

We'll find out where he lives.

What's is this?

My god.

Something tells me this
isn't for a dissertation.

Wait a minute.

Jazz album, saddle shoe,
beach ball.

Derek's murder is
an exact replica,

Except for when he tried
to crawl away for help.

Peter's copying famous
murders in the city.

Great. A copycat.

Nothing better than one freak

I'm gonna send these
to the precinct,

See if they can get
any information

That might help us figure out
where he took evan.

But if he was gonna
try to kill evan,

Why not just do it
in the bell tower?

These crimes are all about
precision and control, right?

So if he's recreating
famous new york murders,

He's not going to just
kill evan randomly.

Which one of these

Is he going to recreate
with evan?

We can rule out the ones
he already committed.

And the ones that are
too far away.

It's broad daylight.

He's going to want
to go somewhere dark,

Somewhere out of the way.

The subway tracks.

But the closest subway station's
over a mile from the bell tower.

Manhattan main line.

There is no
manhattan main line.

But there was back in the '20s.

It used to connect to
that old city hall line.

Let's get everybody
down there.
It's not going to be easy.

That rail line...
it goes on for miles.

What about this one?

Attempted rape, assailant
hasn't come forward yet.

No id on the guy who saved her.

Promising.

You forgot to turn
on the security?

What's the point?

Vincent, I need you.

Someone took evan.

The guy from
her birthday?
Yes.

The one you kissed?

Jt.

Just clarifying.
He's gone.

I need you to come with me.

I don't think
that's a good idea.

He may have been taken to
the tunnels under campus.

The abandoned rail line.
Why there?

He's... He's recreating
old killings.

Vincent, he's recreating yours,

From the night
you saved me at the subway.

You know the underbelly
of this city

Better than anyone.

You might be my only
hope of finding evan

Before it's too late.

Why am I always outnumbered?

Fine, if you're going to go

Into the dark tunnels
with this guy alone...

You're gonna need this.

Check that tunnel down there.

Over this way, over this way.

Apparently, your apprenticeship
is at an end.

It's okay.

I been studying my whole life.

Any particular reason?

Happy little boys
don't conventionally dream

Of slicing up bodies.

Do they usually find
their fathers

Lying stone-cold
on the garage floor

With a perfect splatter of blood

Projecting from their
left temple?

How old were you?

Seven.

Does it matter?

Did that moment turn me
into something I wasn't,

Or have I always been this way?

Enough studying,
time for action?

I can hear your sarcasm,

But if you really wanted
to understand us,

You should have tried harder.

Doesn't it ever get to you,

Only being a spectator,

Never actually
accomplishing anything yourself?

I can't say that
that perspective

Has ever presented itself to me.

Why derek?

You picked him as your
first for a reason.

I'd done my homework, and...

It was time.

I saw what derek did

To those pledges.

It wasn't right.

Plus he had the look

That I needed, so...

Still, it's hard to control
the variables, isn't it?

With me,

You didn't really have time
to prepare at all.

Am I even the right type?

To have this kill not align
with the first

In its acute attention
to detail, well...

That'll keep you up at night.

You're trying to
get into my head.

And it's working, I assume,

Because I'm right.

Anything?

Other than bad memories

From the last time
we were down here? No.

I'm alive because of you.

And I would do it again.

It just doesn't make taking
a life any easier, that's all.

No.

Catherine,

I think it's happening.

Take it.

Please.

Protect yourself.

Take it.
You know what to do.

No, I won't.

Take it.

Take it.

Vincent.

You're being too impulsive.

You need to slow down,
take your time.

Evan.

No, it's okay.

It's me.

Cat.

Cat, what the hell
just happened?

Thank god we got
to you in time.

I was scared.

Are you okay?

I have been calling.

He's here.

Thank god. Is he okay?

Yeah.

We've got it under control.

Okay, I am on my way.

No.

I-I mean...

I don't think
now is a good time.

Jt, I don't know
how we cover this one up.

Evan heard the whole attack.

Be normal.

Be as normal
as you can possibly be.

No one needs to know
you have anything to do with us.

Don't give anyone a chance
to wonder what's going on.

Okay.

I wasn't sure
you'd be in today.

You know us brits;
we keep it all inside.

Did you get a psych eval?

Charming little chat over tea.

Evan.

I'm alive.

That's what
I'm focusing on...

That and how I could
have been so moronic

To have this guy under my wing
and not even see it.

You didn't ask for him;
he came to you.

I wouldn't be so
hard on yourself,

And you figured
it out... Mostly.

I'm used to seeing
the aftermath

Of these kind of guys,

But to be face to face
with one,

To see that he had
no remorse, no emotion...

Do you remember any
of what happened to him?

I don't think I'll ever forget.

All I know is that
whatever killed peter,

It wasn't entirely human.

What do you mean?
I think you know.

To a degree.

What you went through
with your mom in the woods.

Yeah, and after years
of couch surfing

With a dozen therapists,

I realized it was
all in my head.

I went through this
horrific experience

And my mind tried
to make sense of it.

I heard flesh ripping,

Not just being severed,
but ripped apart, catherine.

I swear, it was some kind of...

Evan, I'm not questioning

What you went through.

I just... I know how easy
it is to see the beast

When there is none.

Ev... Evan, you're okay now.

You're safe.

That's what matters.

Morning.

So, you know those firefighters
I was talking to

At the party the other night?

This ends badly
for me, doesn't it?

Strickland, the cute
one, is into you,

And the only way he'll go out
is if he has his wingman,

The hot one with
the arm tattoo.

That's a lot of math.

Double date on them.

This is entrapment.

This is fun... something
you're in desperate need of.

Okay, it's happening.

You're distracted.

Who is he?

Okay, there,

There was this guy
that I was kind of into,

But it doesn't matter.
Okay,

Well, the best way to get over
an "it doesn't matter" guy

Is to find a new one,
preferably one

Who looks good bare-chested
in red suspenders.

No,

That is not the face of someone
who's happy we solved the case.

Just, seeing what was left
of our perp last night.

Psycho deserved it...
off the record.

Now, that is for the courts
to decide.

Our vigilante stepped
way across the line.

He's out of control
and he just jumped

To the top
of our most wanted list.

Every precinct is on this.

Okay, this guy's got
to get brought in.

It looks like there's been
attacks all over town.

Somebody out there
knows something

And is just not talking.

Eight incidents
in the past month.

This is suspect "a" number one.

♪ Calling on saint christopher

♪ gonna need some help tonight

♪ for the long,
dark road ahead ♪

♪ On my way back to the light

♪ 'cause the path
is so unclear ♪

♪ And I'm not sure who to be

♪ all I know is,
I can't stay here... ♪

How is he?

Been better.

♪ Won't you please watch
over me? ♪

So, just out of curiosity,
when you were armed

With a loaded tranq gun
that would have prevented

Exactly what happened
in the tunnel,

Why not use it?

Look,

Vincent was my only hope
of saving evan.

I took a chance.

You may have saved evan,

But you didn't think about
the price vincent would pay.

♪ Yeah, I'm on my way

♪ now

♪ it can get so lonely here

♪ do we learn to face
our fears... ♪

♪ Before they carve
our names in stone? ♪

He put himself in there.

♪ Well, I'm on my way...

We got it ready years ago
in case he ever needed

Containment.

You can't keep him in that.

If he's not in control
of himself,

Somebody needs to be.

You shouldn't be here.

We are going to figure out
a way to fix this.

I am getting you out of here.

Give me the key.

That might be a little
harder than it seems.

We retraced Vincent's steps

And looked at what's triggering
his blackouts.

The night he was
going to dinner,

Where he was headed
near that campus,

Who he heard coming
up the stairs

When he blacked out
in here yesterday.

♪ Calling
on saint christopher... ♪

It's you.

♪ Gonna need some help
tonight. ♪
