Beauty And The Beast Sneak Peek: Cat's Big Crisis, A Huge Bombshell And One Bloody Mess

'Member how the fall finale ended with Cat shooting Vincent to save her bio-dad, an FBI agent? Yeah, well... Cat and Gabe will need to manage some "complications" (read: IA investigation) that come out of that.

How far will Gabe go — what bold gesture will he make — to keep Cat out of the crossfire?

Meanwhile.... Tess finds herself needing to arrest JT, and she takes more than a little pleasure in it!

In the wake of this encounter, a distraught JT will open up to Tess and confess a real humdinger of a truth.

(Raise your hand if you have this same cooler — ideally without biological matter inside.)

Cat decides to pay Vincent a visit, see how he's doing — seeing as she shot him and all — only to make a ghastly discovery.....

I know, I know — you're seeing red, just looking at this picture. But take a moment and let seep in the significance of what's happening here. Because it's kinda huge, right?

Yet not nearly as huge as what happens mere seconds after this moment!
