Beauty and the Beast (2012–2016): Season 3, Episode 1 - The Beast of Wall Street - full transcript

Several weeks have passed since their epic defeat of Gabe, and Cat and Vincent are finally able to begin a new, "normal" stage in their lives. Unfortunately, "normal" isn't in the books for him, as confirmed by the two FBI Agents trying to recruit him.

NARRATOR:
Previously on Beauty and the Beast:

VINCENT: J.T.?
- How bad is it, Cat?

- He's not gonna die, is he?
NURSE: Code blue!

- Hey, guys. What's up?
- I thought I lost you.

Not a chance.

We just saved your friend's life.

- How and why?
- That's all you get to know,

- unless you agree to help us.
- Help you do what?

In a world where science
can create beasts,

you shouldn't be surprised
that there's worse out there.

Now that we know what you can do
and who you are,



we need your help to figure out
what we're up against.

VINCENT: What do you wanna do
about Thomas' offer?

I don't want to think about it.

I just wanna be here with you
right now. Together.

[SIRENS WAILING NEARBY]

[TYRES SCREECH]

[HORN HONKS]

[GROWLS]

- You're late.
VINCENT: Sorry.

It's been a while since I beasted out.

You know, I almost forgot how.

It's only been two months.

Yeah, long enough not to miss it.

It really is too bad we still have to
go through all this



just to see each other though.

Blame work, not beasts. And traffic.

Oh, traffic, huh?
Okay, so how long you got?

That depends.

How long can you last?

[BEEPING]

- Morning.
- Good morning.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

- What's this?
- It's a stethoscope.

Did you miss that chapter?

No, it's a gift.

To remind you not to use your
beast senses to check heartbeats.

Better not to be outed on your first day
back to work, Dr. Keller.

God, that sounds weird, doesn't it?
"Dr. Keller"?

No, it sounds perfect.
It sounds normal.

You worked really hard
to get reinstated.

You deserve to have your life back
after being side-tracked.

We deserve it.

It's almost too good to be true.

I keep waiting
for the other shoe to drop.

Come on. It's been over two months
since Gabe--

I know.

You're still worried about
what those agents said, aren't you?

- About there being worse threats.
- No.

I don't know, maybe.

Catherine, come on.
If what they said was true,

we would've known about it by now,
right?

Besides,
we've sacrificed enough, okay?

We don't have to sacrifice
anyihing more.

We got each other,
we got our future.

A normal future.

Okay? And I do not wanna risk
losing that ever again.

Neither do I.

I love this, Vincent.
I love our life together.

Okay. Then stop worrying
that something's gonna come along

and mess it up, okay?
We won't let it.

I-- I will definitely not let it.

Okay, now, don't forget.
Nine o'clock, Ciel Magnifique.

- We got a lot to celebrate.
- I'll go there right from the precinct.

Oh, and tell J.T.
that I'm thinking about him.

[MURMURING]

Sorry.

[MICROPHONE WHINING]

[J.T. CLEARS THROAT]

MAN:
Welcome back, professor.

Thank you. Uh...

Uh... It's, uh...

It's good to be back.

[MICROPHONE
CONTINUES WHINING]

Sorry.

[MURMURING]

It was your first day back,
of course you were nervous.

J.T., Gabe's attack was
incredibly traumatic for you, all right?

It's only been a couple months.

- Be patient with yourself.
- You gotta stop calling me.

Even the doctors say you need to start
getting your strength back.

I don't wanna get involved unless you
have something specific to show me.

- Who is that?
- Agent Thomas.

All right. Okay. All right.
Maybe you're not ready for teaching.

- How about lunch?
- That's what you said last time,

- but you didn't have squat.
- It'll be good for us.

You can't keep trying to guilt me
into this because you saved J.T.

TESS:
All right, ll Cantuccio.

I'll decide if and when Vincent needs
to know. You keep him out of this.

[SIGHS]

- How's J.T.?
- Better than he thinks he is.

I'm doing everyihing I can to help,
but there's a limit.

I'm not good with neurotic.
I don't have the patience.

Still, he almost died.

I know that. But he didn't.

You know, he lost a lot of blood,
he got really weak,

but he should be better by now.

There's something holding him back.
I just don't know what it is.

And it'd be nice
to get my life back too.

Trust me, it's worth the wait.

Excuse me. Where are you going?
Don't we have a case?

Yeah, but those DHS agents think
they actually might have something.

All right, you know what?

You keep saying
you don't wanna get involved,

yet you keep getting involved.

You almost act like you, uh,
miss fighting beasts sometimes.

- That's ridiculous.
- Oh?

Okay. Maybe I do. A little.

I mean, it's not like I miss the danger

or how much of my life
I had to give up for the last two years,

but on the other hand,

I do sort of miss
being a part of something,

I don't know, bigger, important.

It's harder to let go of than I thought.

Well, it's not harder for Vincent.

He'll hit the roof if he finds out
you're cheating on him.

- I am not cheating on him.
- You know what I mean.

Believe me, the last thing I wanna do
is risk what we have,

or, worse, risk Vincent's life.

But I can't escape this feeling

that we're still meant
to do something bigger,

that maybe I'm supposed to be
a part of something bigger.

BARNETT: Where's Keller?
- Same answer as before.

I'm not bothering him
unless there's a reason.

She wants to see what we've got
before they get involved.

If we decide to get involved.

Lady, you're already involved.

You think we saved your friend
because we're nice? You owe us.

Whatever you did to save J.T., you did
before you asked us to help you.

Vincent and I only agreed
to think about it.

People are dying, detective,
innocent people, all over the city.

And someone or something's
responsible for it.

- And you wanna think about it?
- Yes, I do.

I've been down this road before
with the feds

and it hasn't always ended pretty.
We've paid our dues.

We've risked our lives enough,
especially Vincent.

We've risked something too,
detective.

Our jobs, our reputation.

The only person who knows about this
is the deputy secretary.

He's only allowing us
to keep doing this

as long as no one on the inside or
outside these walls finds out about it.

Check this out.

Amsterdam, 145th Street.

Construction worker gets into a fight,
falls ten floors,

but somehow only breaks his arm.

Morningside, pissed-off driver
rolls a car with his bare hands.

Rikers, a prisoner goes crazy,
kicks open a fortified cell door

- and beats two guards to death.
- This could be anything.

- This could be the latest street drug.
- This is no street drug.

You've seen enough
with your beast to know that.

Somehow, somebody's getting
ordinary people, innocents,

to do extraordinary things,
things nobody should be able to do.

Experimenting on them,
they're turning them into guinea pigs,

pushing the limits of their body
and mind.

And who's behind it and why,
we don't know.

But what we do know is
that this pattern is increasing.

It's happening more often.

More and more people
are being targeted.

And they're hurting other people
or dying because of it.

I don't know
what you want me to say.

Say you'll help.

Say Vincent will help.

Because we're gonna need him
to stop this.

I need more. I need proof
before I take this to him.

Because I'm the only person in this
room who cares about saving his life.

- Hey.
- Hey.

What are you doing here,
McBeastie?

Aren't you supposed to be
playing doctor or something?

Yeah, and I don't wanna be late
on my first day, so...

Remember that box of things
I asked you to hold onto for me

- before I left for Afghanistan?
- Your mom's stuff? Yeah, sure.

- Yeah. Can I see it?
- Of course, uh...

If I can remember where I put it.
Heh.

Come on. You still need that thing?

What, the cane? Yeah.

You don't want me to fall down
and break my neck, right?

Uh-huh.

So how did your first day
back at class go?

Oh, here it is.

[J.T. CLEARS THROAT]

- Here you go. That's it, right?
- Yeah.

J.T.:
What are you looking for?

Mom's engagement ring.

I am gonna ask Catherine
to marry me.

Would you like to try it on?

Uh... No. Heh. Thank you.
I am not ready for that.

Well, you should be.

Especially after what
you and Vincent have been through.

Calm down. We're just getting used
to being normal. Don't push it.

- Oh, Heather, you look beautiful.
- You like it?

Yeah, I like it even better
than the last one.

The one I just tried on, or the one I wore
when I found out Vincent was a beast

- and nearly got blown up?
- Hey. Shh.

Just because you know
doesn't mean everyone needs to know.

Oh, right. Sorry.

I guess I'm still getting used to this.
But I'm glad I know now, Cat.

It might still creep me out a little bit.

But at least you don't have to keep it
a secret from me anymore.

Well, I'm glad you know too.

But you do have to keep it a secret,

even from your fiancé.
You know that, right?

- Yeah. No, I know.
- Okay.

But, I mean, at some point in time,
I'll eventually have to tell him.

Otherwise, I'm lying to him, right?
I can't wait for you to finally meet him.

As long as he treats you right,
that's all that matters.

And if he doesn't,
I can always sic your boyfriend on him.

- Heather.
- What, that's not a sisterly perk?

[CELL PHONE BEEPS]

- Everyihing okay?
- Yeah.

It's just this case I'm working on.
I might have a lead.

Can you find your way
back to the hotel?

- Sure. That's fine.
- Thank you. I will call you.

And for the record,
he is my perk, not yours.

[CHUCKLES]

MAN:
We start an IV on this guy yet?

NURSE: Hey, get Dr. Martin
on that head wound in ER 4.

Tell Oriho we're sending them
a compound fracture.

- Prep triage, we got inbound multiples.
- Uh, excuse me.

Yo, are you ob-gyn?
No. No, you're not.

You're in ER 3. Jackson is 5.
Come on, people.

Uh, excuse me. Hi. Hi. I'm Dr. Keller.

I believe I'm the new ER doctor.
I'm supposed to report here.

- Right. I heard something about that.
- Yeah.

Wait. Aren't you the war hero
everybody was after, the fugitive?

I, uh, was exonerated.

- Someone was trying to frame me.
- Welcome to New York Gen.

You'll work your ass off here.
It's nonstop.

We got an incoming construction
accident. Scaffolding fell or something.

- So just dive right in.
- Okay. Thank you.

Discharge them or admit them.
We need the beds.

Oh, uh, one more thing.
Do shifts usually finish on time here?

Well, I got dinner with my girl tonight.

I'm finally gonna ask her
to marry me, so...

Don't do it, hero. Nobody stays married
around here for long.

By the way, nice stethoscope.
It's very shiny.

- Hey.
- Hey--

No, no, it's all right, it's all right,
don't get up.

You okay here?

- Me? Yeah. Sure. Fine.
- Great.

Yep. It's all good.

Breathe, J.T.
Baby steps, remember?

I know. It's just hard.

I... I mean, let's face it,
I shouldn't even be here.

You gotta start
getting out sometime--

- No. I mean here as in alive, at all.
- J.T., don't start.

Tess, I've gone over
my medical records a dozen times.

I'm telling you, there's no way I should
have survived that, I should be dead.

But you're not dead.

Only because of whatever crazy
medicine those DHS agents gave me.

And I still can't figure it out.

- And you're spinning again.
- What if I'm right?

What if I'm not supposed to be here?
What am I supposed to do?

Know what you're supposed to do?

You're supposed to get off
your damn pity pot and grow a pair.

Look, a terrible thing happened to you,
all right?

You almost died, that sucks.
But you didn't. You're alive.

It's a blessing
and you just wanna waste it

by looking over your shoulder
for the Grim freaking Reaper.

- Tess, people are watching.
- I don't care. I've had it.

Look, I care about you

and I've been taking care of you,
but no more.

You have to get over this.

You have to figure it out, all right?
Because God doesn't make mistakes.

You're here.
So figure out the hell why already.

[CELL PHONE BEEPS]

[SCOFFS]

Nobody beats Tyler. At anyihing.

He's not the fastest rising stock analyst
on the Street for nothing.

It's how we got all of this.

But you said he changed. How?

I don't know.

He just suddenly became
more aggressive.

More ambitious. Like overnight.

I mean, he was always driven.

He always wanted to do
whatever it took to get to the top, but...

But what?

It's like he became a different person
all of a sudden.

Somebody I didn't even
recognise anymore.

First, he started working nonstop,
and then he started fighting.

With anybody and everybody
that got in his way.

Then he got arrested threatening
to blow up his office building.

He knocked out two guards
and broke out of jail.

How could he do that?
I don't-- I don't understand.

That's not Tyler.
What is happening to him?

We've been scouring the city,
looking for an innocent who fits the MO

before they end up dead,
now we've got one.

It's a sad story and I feel bad for her,
but it's New York.

There are any number of stressed-out
workaholics losing it in this town.

They're not losing it like this guy is.
Wanna know how he got out of jail?

He knocked out two guards.

He jumped 60 feet, from one rooftop
to the other and then got away.

Sixty feet, detective.

Which means what Tyler Zane did
was impossible.

- Do you get it?
- Somehow, somebody did this to Tyler.

Just like they did it
to those other people we showed you.

You said that you would help
if we found proof.

Well, help us find Tyler.

Help us find who's behind this
so nobody else gets hurt.

BARNETT:
Get your boyfriend's ass to help too.

Because God only knows
what we're up against.

Tyler.

[GRUNTING]

VINCENT: She's not here yet, is she?
- No, no, don't worry.

You're early and she'll be late.

- Ah, traffic.
- Women.

Voila, your table.

A dozen red roses,
candles, champagne.

- Perfect.
- Want to order appetizers or wait?

Uh, no, no, I'll wait.

- Very good.
- One more thing.

Do you know how I would place
the ring in her champagne glass,

just so, you know, she doesn't
well, swallow the thing before, uh--?

Place it in a strawberry, then pour.
That way, the ring will float to the top--

[CELL PHONE BEEPS]

I'm sorry, please hold that thought.

Damn it.

Uh, is there any chance
you could hold the table for me?

- I gotta get back to the hospital.
- Of course.

Thank you, much appreciated.
I will be back as soon as I can.

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

Hey, babe.
I was just about to call you.

Can we push dinner just a little?
I gotta go back for some emergency.

I know. I think I'm the emergency.

[CHATTERING]

OFFICER: Did you recognise
the assailant, detective?

- No.
- Did you see which direction he went?

No.

Vincent, I am so sorry.

- You okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine, just a little sore.

Look, uh, I'm Dr. Keller.
I'm one of the doctors here.

Do you mind holding off
on the questions for a few minutes?

Sure, no problem.

You're lucky.
Could have been a lot worse.

- Is that Agent Thomas?
- Yeah.

Okay, what is going on?
What are you doing with him?

I wasn't planning on doing anything
with him. But I just... Ow.

All right, let me take a look.
Where does it hurt?

Just the back of my neck.

They've been calling
ever since they saved J.T.

I didn't wanna bother you.
I didn't wanna upset our lives.

Well, it's a little late for that now,
isn't it?

Where's Barnett?

He's dead.

What?

We were attacked by
I don't know what.

It was fast.

It was violent.

It was unlike anything I've ever seen.

Unlike anything we've ever seen.

Catherine, why didn't you talk to me
about this?

For a lot of reasons, the least of which,
you can't handle this stuff on your own.

- You could've got yourself killed.
- I know.

I didn't bother you with it
because I wanted to protect you.

I didn't expect--

[EKG BEEPING]

IAN:
He's coding, he's coding.

- Who's the on-call cardiologist?
- Don't move, okay?

Page Neurovascular.
I need a cardiologist here, stat.

Where's RT?
I needed RT here five minutes ago.

- What do we know, Ian?
- Multiple sharp force entries.

We got them all but he's still tachy
and he's haemorrhaging.

- I can't figure out why.
- Get the paddles ready.

Administer 10 cc's of lidocaine
immediately.

And then I need everybody quiet,
okay?

Pushing lidocaine.

We got an ascending aortic puncture.
His heart must've gotten nicked.

Get up to OR, stat. Call Cardin, tell
them to prep for valvuloplasty. Let's go.

Come on. Move it.
Come on, get him there fast.

How the hell did he know that?

Someone is experimenting
on innocents,

making them do things
that they shouldn't be able to do.

- This sounds familiar.
- Exactly, except in this guy's case,

they've been able to somehow
amplify his ambitious nature

and turn him into
an adrenaline-charged psychopath

willing to destroy anyone or anything
that gets in his way.

You thought you could handle
that on your own?

I went to help interview Zane's wife,

see if there was something
we needed to worry about.

Congratulations. There's a hell of a lot
to worry about now, isn't there?

- I know you're upset.
- Damn right, I'm upset.

I thought we talked about this.
I thought we agreed

that we wouldn't risk losing everything
that we already have.

- This doesn't have to.
- The hell it doesn't, okay?

We were supposed
to celebrate tonight, just you and me,

not get dragged back into
all this crap again.

lam sorry about tonight, I am.

- I know how much it meant--
- No, you got no idea.

Look, I'm sorry, okay? I'm upset.
It's a lotto process. I just--

You know,
I thought we were past all this.

Listen to me. The last thing I wanna do
is put us at risk, you know that.

I love what we have,
I love what our future holds.

But there has gotta be a reason
why this keeps coming back to us,

whether we like it or not.

If we've learned anything,

it's that we are a part
of something bigger, you and me,

just like Alistair and Rebecca
before us.

Can you really just walk away
from that?

Catherine, we have been through hell
and back again,

for, what, over two years now?

How long are we supposed to keep
doing this for? When we're 50 or 60?

When does it end?
When do we just get to be normal?

Because every time I have
to transform back into that thing,

I risk crossing the line.

I risk losing any inch of humanity
I have left. You know this.

You know what that means?
We risk losing us.

I can't. I can't do it.
I won't do it anymore.

I can't believe that you would.

Vincent.

Hey. How'd it go?
Did she like the ring?

I don't know.

I didn't ask.

Hey. I've been looking
everywhere for you.

Hey, Heather.
What are you doing here?

I'm saying goodbye.
I'm going back to Miami, remember?

Right. I'm sorry.
I got a lot on my mind.

Well, so what else is new? Heh.

I hope it's okay, I left a few things
at the apartment. Whoa.

Hey, is that you?

- What happened?
- It's nothing.

It doesn't look like nothing.

- Are you all right?
- Yes, I'm fine. I just-

I have a couple bruises.

- Does Vincent know?
- Yeah, he knows.

Oh. Oh, is--? ls this a beast case?

No.

I mean, yes, it is, sort of.

- It's complicated.
- Complicated how?

No more secrets, remember?
You can talk to me.

I don't know what to do.

You know how much I love Vincent.
I would do anything for him.

- Are you guys fighting or something?
- Yeah, bigtime fighting.

Problem is, I don't blame him.

He wants us to have a normal life,
and so do I.

But when stuff like that happens,
I can't just put up blinders

and pretend like everything's fine,
because it isn't.

On the other hand,
if I do something about it,

that gets Vincent involved,

and aside from the fact
that he doesn't want to be involved,

it also puts his life at risk.

And I don't want that either.

You mean at risk
because of the humanity thing?

No, because of everything.

I saw firsthand
what he'd be up against,

and it scares the hell out of me.

But it's my life too,

and I can't help feeling like
I'm supposed to do something,

that we are supposed to.

Yeah, well...

You can't make this decision
on your own, Cat.

It's a couple's problem.

An admittedly unique
couple's problem,

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

But it's a couple's problem.

Which means you guys gotta
get in sync about it,

make sure you're on the same page.

And the only way you're ever gonna
be able to do that

is if you talk to each other.

So go find Vincent. Finish your fight.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

VINCENT:
Yes. All right.

I don't want a pep talk.

Well, too bad,
because you're gonna get one anyway.

Besides, considering all the pep talks
I've had to suffer through lately,

it's only fair.

All right, take a seat,
but there's nothing to talk about.

Really?

You go to propose to your girl
and you come back all pissed off.

What happened?

I don't know.
We just don't see eye-to-eye, that's all.

Ha. Since when?

Since Catherine decided
to become a beast hunter again,

or whatever the hell is out there now.

Man. Apparently, those DHS agents
have been trying to recruit her.

Now they're telling her
that they found something.

So that's it?
That's why you didn't propose?

Something attacked them, okay?
Killed one of the agents. One's critical.

And Catherine's sure as hell lucky
she wasn't killed too.

I don't know, man. lt's-- I just...

I can't believe that she would
put herself in that position.

You know, I can't believe
that she would even want to.

Maybe she didn't think
she had a choice.

I'm just saying, if there are still things
that go bump in the night out there,

what's she supposed to do?
She can't just ignore it.

Vincent, I know how much
you want a normal life,

and God knows nobody deserves it
more than you do, but let's get real.

You're not normal. You're a beast.

Heh. ls this your idea of a pep talk?

Look, Muirfield may have only cared
about turning you

into a super soldier, originally,

but it's become
much more than that.

I mean, look at all the good
you've done since.

Plus, with Rebecca and Alistair,
ancient prom-beasts,

you can't deny you're pan
of something bigger, which means

you can't just put your head
in the sand and wish it all away.

So I just gotta give up everything
that I've ever wanted?

Risk my life, Catherine's life,
hell, even your life?

Who says we gotta keep doing this?

Destiny?

The agents saved my life for a reason,
Vincent, but it wasn't for rne.

They knew
there was something out there,

and they knew they'd need yours
and Cat's help to stop it.

Believe me, I'm not thrilled
any of this happened either, but it has.

The only question left is,
what are we gonna do about it?

[SIREN WAILING]

Hey. Excuse me.

Could you please find out what room
Agent Jack Thomas has moved to?

I think fifth floor ICU.
Yeah, Room 526.

- How's he doing?
- He's listed as critical but stable.

Good, thanks.

Hey!

Agent Thomas?

If you don't stop this, who will?

Nurse! Nurse!

Vincent.

[SNARLS]

Vincent, wait! Don't!

Give me a break.
You can't park there.

You don't know for sure whether
Zane's even in here or not?

I remember his wife said he threatened
to blow up his building. It's all I've got.

This is all my fault.

Maybe you ought to try
calling Vincent again.

He's not answering
and he's not going to. I know that look.

He's on a mission, he's out for blood.

Which means I have to stop him
before he stops Zane.

I'm confused.
Don't we want Vincent to stop him?

He may not be able to,
and if he does, he'll kill him.

- Either way, I lose Vincent.
- I'm not following.

When DHS told us about
a worse threat, they weren't kidding.

Vincent's never been up against
anything like this before,

- and he might have to cross the line.
- And he risks losing his humanity.

Unless I can stop him.

Plus, despite everything Zane's done,
he's still an innocent,

which means we have to save him,
not kill him.

Along with everyone else
in the building.

All right, I'll look for bombs,
you look for Vincent.

[BEEPING]

[GRUNTS]

[GROWLS]

[GROWLING & GRUNTING]

All right, hurry, but don't panic.
Everybody out.

Come on, let's go.

- Hey, can you check floors?
- Yeah.

[CHATTERING]

Roof. Hurry.

[GROWLING]

Vincent, no!

No!

Vincent!

Vincent.

Listen to me. You cannot kill him.

He is an innocent.
Someone did this to him.

Someone experimented on him,
just like Muirfield experimented on you.

Vincent, please, don't.

If you do this, you will cross a line
you can never come back from,

and I will lose you.

We will lose each other.

Vincent, we will lose everyihing.

Hope I'm not interrupting.

No.

Just working out.

- Do you want me to leave?
- No.

I-- You know what? I don't know.
I just...

I don't know what I want anymore.

[SIGHS]

Look, I'm sorry, okay? Of course.
Of course I want you, okay?

That is never gonna change,
you know that.

It's just, uh...

How's Zane?

He's alive, thanks to you.

Uh, you mean thanks to you.
I was gonna kill the guy.

But you didn't, you saved him.
And you saved yourself.

Again, thanks to you.

So, what are they gonna
do with him?

Agent Thomas got him into
a secure medical facility

until they can figure out
how to help him.

If they can. I mean,
I don't know what they did to the guy,

but whatever it was, they sure as hell
turned him into something--

Extraordinary?

That's how Thomas described it.

He said they're trying to push the limits
of what's possible.

- Well, they sure as hell did that.
- And they're gonna keep doing it.

That's the point.

According to what they told me before,
it's only just begun.

They're gonna keep using New York
as their own private petri dish,

using and killing innocent people
until God knows what.

And what,
I'm supposed to stop them?

No, we're supposed to.

We're in this together,
Vincent, or not at all.

I don't wanna--
I don't wanna force you into anyihing.

And the last thing I wanna do
is put you in harm's way again.

But what choice do we have?

Okay, and what about us?

- About our future? Does it count?
- Of course it counts.

I love you, Vincent.

More than anyihing.

But I believe that we can have both.

That we can overcome anything
if we do it together.

We've already proven that.

How many lives did we save today
in that building?

- I don't know.
- And what would've happened to them

if you hadn't stopped Zane?

We're here for a reason, Vincent,
I know that.

We're together for a reason.

But it's not just to love each other.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Hey.

- I need a drink.
- Okay.

What do you want?

- Mm, can you make a cosmo?
- No.

Fine. Scotch, rocks.
Make it a double.

What happened?

Oh, you know, same old, same old.

Stopping crazies
from blowing up buildings,

protecting a beast, covering for Cat.

Just another day at the office.

Yeah, but it's a day
I thought was behind me.

I should've known our little
beast hiatus was too good to be true.

- Hey, where's the cane?
- Goodwill.

I decided somebody else probably
needs it a little more than I do.

Really?

- It's about time. Cheers.
- Heh.

Don't be so thrilled.

Did you get rid of
the medical supplies too?

No, I kept those. I mean, let's face it,
I may be getting better,

but I'm still a hypochondriac.

Good for you, J.T.
You just made my day suck less.

Thanks. I think.

Seriously though, what changed?

Besides you kicking my ass?

I don't know. I guess I heard you.

And maybe I found
the reason I'm still around.

An old reason, anyway.

You know that crappy day you had
where you saved all those people?

Yeah?

It wouldn't have happened
without me.

I mean, not directly
because of me, obviously.

But on some level,

I helped Vincent realise
he needed to do something to help.

Batman needs a Robin.

[CHUCKLES]

Something like that, yeah.

Still doesn't explain
how that medicine saved me,

but that's a tomorrow problem.
Come on.

- No. Where are we going?
- I don't know. Out.

Where someone can make you
a real cosmo.

All right.

[DOOR OPENS]

- Hey.
- Hey.

I didn't know
when I was gonna see you again.

I was giving you some space.

Yeah, uh, thanks.

Although, part of me was just hoping
you'd jump across the street

and sweep me off my feet again.

[CHUCKLES]

Well, I'm sorry to disappoint.

Never.

You okay?

Yeah. Yeah, I just- I don't know.
My head's still spinning, it's been a...

- It's been a rough couple of days.
- You think?

Look, uh...

Catherine.

You're right.

I know as much as I want
a normal life, I can't have it.

I'm not normal.

And like it or not--
And for the record I don't like it.

--I don't really have a choice.

We don't have a choice.

Vincent, you've been given a gift.

It might not have started out that way,
but it has become that.

And if you think about it,

it's really not much different
from why you wanted to join the Army,

or why you wanted
to become a doctor.

Or why you wanted
to become a cop.

I keep saving-

I really believe that
we're in this together for a reason,

not just for love.

Except, without that,

I'd be lost.

[VINCENT SIGHS]

- What are you doing?
- I'm making sure you don't fall.

Um...

Will you marry me?

Yes. Heh.

- Yes?
- Yes.

[LAUGHS]

Yes.

- Yes?
- Yes.
