‘Beauty and the Beast’ season 2, episode 15 review: Vincent and Cat make a move
Did “Beauty and the Beast” end in the way that you expected? If you answer that question with a “yes,” we are starting to wonder if you are clairvoyant.
Honestly, it was more the timing of the Vincent / Cat kiss that was a surprise to us than the fact that they are closer to being back together again now, since it comes only a few weeks after Cat decided to give things a shot with Gabe. If this was a different show, and it felt like there was more time in between now and an inevitable series finale, this may be different. But the writers are an aware bunch. They’ve seen the ratings, and they know that this season could be the end. Therefore, why not try to give the fans what they want?
This moment happened really at a time that felt a little rushed, and also did not exactly make Cat look like a great person. There’s a difference, after all, between being with someone, and then telling someone one thing and then doing the opposite. Obviously, she wanted to let go of Vincent when she told Gabe that she would stop being around him … but we can’t imagine that he is going to react that well to this news. Cat just can’t keep herself away.
As we get closer to solving the Sam problem, we at least know that Vincent and Cat are going to be working on things romantically again now … and that does raise the stakes moving forward. We just wonder if it could’ve happened in a little less of a predictable way. Going into the episode, we didn’t expect; however, that final scene with the two of them told an entirely different story. It was obvious from the moment that she walked into that room. Grade: B-.

In the review you say “Cat decided to give things a shot with Blake”. Who´s he? Thought the battle was between Gabe and Vincent. Well ……..
Hope most of us some time have felt the passion and could not help ourselves but embrasing that feeling. I completely understand Cat falling in Vincents arms, kissing and making love. Bet it was incredible as Vincent said the morning after. Maybe Cat´s afraid of the deep feeling they have for each other and thinks she want to go the “safe” way. But that´s not the right way for her and it´s not fair to Gabe either.
In S1 she told us she didn´t need a “normal” life and we know she likes bad boys.
Where to go from here? Only the writers know. It will most certainly be a bumpy ride for us Beasties.
Love it!

It was a good episode and agree that last scene did feel rushed and yes, it didn’t make Cat look like a good person but her relationship with Gabe, of all people, didn’t make a lot of sense either. Then again Vincent was no angel with Tori. Great show but lacking in something , scenes are rushed, writing for some of the scenes could be so much better, lighting is off and too dark, VinCats relationship woes need to fixed on episode 16 and not get carried in to whenever the show returns in the summer. Show need to go out with some good positive VinCat on episode 16. That is what the fans would like to see and they deserve it, have never seen such dedicated, awesome fans support for a TV show like BATB before. But whatever happens wish it success and a 3 rd season:).
