A New Beast Being Introduced In Season 3 Of Beauty and the Beast?

The first preview of season 3 of Beauty and the Beast was unveiled last month and it showed Vincent (Jay Ryan) readying to propose to Catherine (Kristin Kreuk). The clip also shows the couple facing plenty challenges moving in together and trying to work domestically. At one point Vincent is also heard telling Catherine that he isn't being able to cope. "Moving in with you is causing a few primal issues," he says.

Some spoiler reports for the show revealed that Catherine's (Kristine Kreuk) cred as a detective will be brought into question, even possibly putting her under investigation. Spoiler TV revealed that Catherine is going to have to revisit the nature of her troubles in the previous season. The report goes on to state that Internal Affairs will actually be brought in for an investigation and Catherine and crew will be "at odds with the law." This was the drift the show took in season 2 but Vincent (Jay Ryan) was the cause of all the unrest. This is also going to "change the entire dynamic of the show towards the end of the chapter" according to the report.
