Beauty and the Beast · Season 2
I'm sorry, Mouse, but one simply does not find a concert grand piano!
Mouse did!
Where?
In the park.
The park?
Underground...under platform.
The concert platform, in the park. You disassembled a grand piano under the concert platform in the park.
Two more there just as big!
There is a piano in a chamber beneath this city waiting for you to play. It's yours. Come back. Play it for us.
He won't come back.
You did everything you could.
Catherine, I feel as if we'll never see him again.
But he knows now, that you'll wait for him, that you love him and Vincent, as long as you do, there's hope.
Sometimes I can see it all so clearly. I use to come here when I was a child. Wonder about how it would feel to lay in a meadow under the warm summer or see the night sky full of stars.
When I was a girl, we spent our summers at a lake in Connecticut. I had a secret place too, a glen. I would lay there in the tall grass and feel like I was the only person on earth. Safe.
Yes
And if I sat very still, the deer would walk by and not ever see me. I could almost reach out and touch them. It seemed enchanted. It seems so far from the city, like a different world, but it is only two hours away. I wish you could see it.
So do I.
If only we could be there.
We are there. You are taking me there with your words, showing me.
Maybe there is a way.
Please...Don't even—
All we need is a way to get out of the city and up there safely. A van. We could drive up at night. No one is even there at the lake this time of year. Maybe we could really do it. Vincent, let me try to arrange it. If I can, will you come with me?
It is something that I never dared wish for.
To go there, to share with you, would mean so much
Then we must try.
I cannot believe you could seriously envision something so foolhardy and dangerous.
You over-state the risk.
Any risk is too great, surely that is apparent. For Catherine to suggest such a thing...
An innocent dream, Father, borne of love.
An irresponsible dream borne of selfishness!
No!
Yes! Yes, I know because I have had the same dream for you myself, over and over again for so many years. Ever since you were young, I wanted nothing more than to be able to show you the sun, the mountains, things for which you only have words for.
This is not merely for myself, Father, but for Catherine as well. This is a chance for us, no more than a moment, the briefest moment, free from the perils and urgency of the time we share.
Vincent, your love for Catherine and hers for you is something that warms us all. But you have a responsibility beyond that, a duty to those down here in this community that depends on you. Who look to you for truth and strength, for hope and protection. Without you their world would be a very dark place.
And what about my responsibility to Catherine? Who gives so much and asks for so little? How can I deny her, Father?
Am I unable to fulfill even her slightest wish? Tell me, Father, are we forever bound to accept a poem for a sunset?
Vincent, you cannot do this! [Vincent stalks off] Vincent!
It was a dream, Catherine.
No.
A beautiful, but impossible dream that we dare not have.
But for a moment I thought it would be possible.
So did I. If the slightest thing should go wrong, if anyone were to see us, it would ruin everything that we already have.
I know. I'm sorry. I should have never asked.
I am the one who should apologize. You ask for so little and there is so much I wish to give you, and so much that I can never give you.
And so much more than you do. You must believe that, Vincent. Some people don't even have dreams.
One day, we will see that lake, O promise you.
And until then, we will keep on dreaming.
[Dream begins]
Catherine?
I am the image of her in you. I am your heart, your mind.
Am I dreaming?
Call it what you will. Sleeping. Waking dream.
I remember thinking, that there would be less pain for those I love (if he had never been born or lived)
Nothing of what you knew remains.
He shall be the greatest who is the lowliest, the most hidden, the most deviating; a human being beyond good and evil.
Beyond good and evil is only death.
Take the beast! Now, cracks a noble heart. Good night, sweet prince.
