'Beauty and the Beast' season 4 spoilers: Penultimate episode airing Sept. 8 will find Vincent at his breaking point
Thursday's episode of "Beauty and the Beast" will set the tone for the last two episodes of the series. Will the show, which saw the struggles of Vincent Keller and Catherine "Cat" Chandler from the moment they first met up to the day they finally tied the knot, finally give the newly married couple the normalcy they have been yearning for?
Episode 11 titled "Meet the New Beast," which is airing Aug. 25, will see Vincent (Jay Ryan) and Cat (Kristin Kreuk) deciding whether to go on the run or not after the identity of a purported new beast is revealed.
This is the same beast that Graydal CEO Peter Braxton (Marc Singer) wants protection from, which is why he took Vincent in episode 10. He wanted Vincent on his side as the threat of another beast loomed. However, the emergence of a new beast could put Vincent's life at risk, especially if it will mean exposing his true identity, too.
After this week's episode, "Beauty and the Beast" season 4 will take a week-long hiatus. The CW didn't provide a reason for the break, but it is assumed that it's meant to stretch out the series through to the summer season.
In the penultimate episode airing on Sept. 8 titled "No Way Out," Vincent might find himself in trouble when an interrogation puts him at his breaking point.
"Cat (Kristin Kreuk) and Vincent (Jay Ryan) face a huge setback when Vincent is secretly interrogated about an impending attack, putting Vincent at his breaking point," reads the synopsis shared by Carter Matt.
The synopsis doesn't mention anything about the new beast that Braxton warned Cat and Vincent about, so it remains to be seen if its arc will be resolved in Thursday's episode or if that beast will figure into episode 12.
What could have put Vincent at his breaking point during the interrogation? Will the truth about him finally be revealed in the penultimate episode? Make sure to watch Thursday's episode, as well as Sept. 8's to find out what the endgame will be for Cat and Vincent.
"Beauty and the Beast" season 4 episodes 11 and 12 will air on Aug. 25 and Sept. 8, respectively, at 9 p.m. EDT on The CW.
