Hey I am new although I have been reading this forum for some time. Had to respond to this episode - I thought the beginning was really weird. But I really loved the ending as sad as it was. Vince is completely delusional. What is he smoking? Cat is AWESOME!!! Loved the shrink - what a cutie and so smart - definitely a turn on!!! The ex- fiance really needs to get a life!

Hey Elle,first it was how come they dont move forward, then she is honest and says she wants to, but whats even worse is he 1 up'd her by telling her that Alex is willing to leave with him so he can be normal, (I guess) and then asks her if she would. Its not enough for her to want to move forward. He's all over the place and annoying. On a brighter note I actually think I could like Tess being in on the secret.

Let's see......how am I feeling?
Annoyed, .......irritated.......pissed.......and a few other choice profanities!!
Honestly, what Vincent did tonight puts him way passed JERK! After the last scene between Catherine and Vincent, the bubble just burst for me. I feel letdown........
Catherine was the MAN!! She was going through so many emotions.........I loved it. Kristin was excellent! I loved how she laid out Vincent after she got him out of the arrest. After all that, she STILL tampered with the video evidence and saved his and Alex's arse!
The Therapist was great.........their scenes were well done. He got Cat to face her feelings. When she said that she "Loved" Vincent, I knew it was going to be bad. The procedural story was weak,....they tried to relate it to Catherine and her feelings. That was a bit forced, but the storyline gave us some nice Tess and Cat moments.
The Evan/J.T. story is good.........still feels weird to me. The whole morgue tryst with Claire was just weird but made sense at the end.....with Muirfield. The only real interesting development.
That end scene..............just painful........not in a hopeful way. I can see the "Cold Turkey" reference.......but I think I would of "Cold Clock" Vincent first. I am so turned off by him, that I almost don't care.......he made Catherine feel like everytime he would think of her, he would be reminded of the Beast in him......now how are we to ever think differently about that revelation. It doesn't make a girl feel very special.....it was like he didn't even hear what she was saying. He didn't really acknowledge her feelings for him. It was all about him and Alex. My heart actually hurt for Catherine.
I think I will watch The Office next week........just saying! Yeah, I'm that disappointed.
Another thing.............the Alex towel drop was a cheap plot device.......I really don't like to be messed with like that. I think it was BS, frankly.

Yes I know how you feel because today was my first post as well. I have been reading this thread for a long time and this episode just make me feel like spilling my heart out. If I don't talk about it I will go crazy. Yes, look at what this show has done to me!

I... I..... I......... I don't even know what to say....... I feel like our beloved show is ruined. How can we ever like Vincent again. I really think they went too far with this. I can understand the writers wanting to show Vincent being human and wanting to feel normal again, but it should NEVER be at the expense of Cat's feelings. I mean, he was apologising to her at the end like she was a stranger. WTH? There was absolutely no magic (which i think is why most of us got hooked). No spark. I am not angry this week - I was last week. That's probably a bad sign, b/c I literally feel nothing.... just apathy. Maybe I'll get mad as I think of it more, b/c then at least I'll feel something that will make me engage with the show again. Right now i feel a bit disconnected from it. Odd actually, since I've been so obsessed since October..

I' m that disappointed too suzieq. I've had enough of Vinlex in just 2 episodes. She managed to ruin Vincent. I don't even want to see anymore coziness. Cold Turkey makes perfect sense now.

Well said asalb. I agree no spark, no magic, that's the reason I LOVED this show.

Its actually somewhat comforting that a lot of people's reactions are so similar..... seemed kinda like stunned shock and "burst bubbles". I think that pretty much sums it up quite nicely...

Boy...just reading your comments and seeing the reaction everywhere else...I'm now so disappointed and I haven't even watched it yet!! I have a long 2 hours to see this. By the looks of it, Vincent is still an ass, a selfish one at that....and so far, I'm wondering how in the world he can be redeemed? I'm glad to hear that Catherine finally gave him a piece of her mind...but the revelation that she actually says the words that she loves Vincent..WOW...was not expecting that. And at the end...Vincent rejects Catherine?? Seriously??? My emotions are ......and I haven't even watched yet!!!!!! AAARRRGH......

I'm not gonna read the comments because ya'll were angry LAST week so I can imagine how you feel this week. But this is me...still not mad at Vincent. . I completely understand his motivations, his feelings...his desires. I get it all. Not to say I don't understand Catherine's as well...I do. But Vincent needs to come to the realization on his own that you can't go back. No matter how much Alex wants to recapture their misspent youth, you just can't do it. Too much has changed. I think even ALEX realizes this and that's why she pushing so hard. It's like she's trying to undo the past 9 years...and she simply can't. Alex and Vincent will get there on their own, but Catherine took the right tack with Vincent. Can Alex really say she wants the old Vincent back when she doesn't know the whole truth? I believe in the next couple of weeks we will see all three of them dealing with that question. Now Evan??? I'm about ready to throw a large rock at his head! . If he doesn't stop calling Vincent a 'thing' soon, I may have to open up a can of whoop ass on his head!! Everytime he said that tonight I was slapping my remote. NOT HAPPY with him!! Overall, I like last week's show much much better than this week's.

OMG Dayabeast,I thought about that. I really hope they don't get that far. It would be totally soapy and only serve to tear them apart, and so not EPIC. I just can't believe he literally pulled away from her. Ouch! She has not choice but to go Cold Turkey after she put herself out there. He rejected her and I hope he pays for it, for a little while. I would think it would be that much harder to go for it again with him after he chose the ex-life. My heart broke! see them so happy! and I worry about cutting the towel scene .. I hate when the writers do that .. to leave things so open .....that will be one reason for her come back a baby
