I think it's all of the above. It's absolutely true that a sudden change in circumstances can totally distort one's perspective. All of a sudden all of the limitations that had informed your decsisions aren't there anymore. Btw, I can't help but think of Bill Murray when he wins the million dollar bowling tournament in "Kingpin" shouting, "I've done it! I'm finally above the law!" LOL

But I also think that her thought processes are out of whack. She realized it after she tried to kill Adalind with the gargoyle. It was almost like that effort temporarily exhausted her malevalent energy and for a moment she was her old self again. She goes to the Spice Shop to talk to Rosalee and Monroe but, then she runs into Nick and Hank, the stress starts to build and, boom, she's back to being an unforgiving Biest. It's like she has a sticky emotional accelerator or something. It starts with a legitimate emotion like anger or shame or jealously or whatever and then she's just gone.

So, yeah, I don't know where they're going with this. Her power definitely makes her interesting - and genuinely scary! I have to say that after that preview I am more worried for Monroe than I've ever been! There probably is a point where she becomes irredeemable. IF she does somehow manage to regain her moral compass before she is completely consumed by the abyss, it will be one of the greatest heroic turnarounds ever. I hope that's what the writers have in mind for her but, who knows?!
