Gen V: Did Andre and Cate have a relationship before Luke's death?

In the episode "Jumanji" of Gen V, the audience is taken on a journey into Cate's mind, where her repressed memories and inner struggles are unveiled. Cate, who possesses the ability to erase memories, finds herself returning the memories she had hidden from her friends. She claims to have thought she was doing the right thing, but it becomes apparent that she had been under the influence of Dean Shetty. Andre, feeling the most betrayed, loses his compassion for Cate even as she collapses before them.However, amidst the chaos, Emma regains her memories of Sam and rushes to reunite with him at a drive-in movie theater, which serves as his personal sanctuary. The two engage in a passionate, albeit comical, reunion with Steamy, sweaty "muppet sex," reminiscent of a scene from Titanic. It remains a mystery why Sam finds muppets so intriguing, and whether we'll see TV's Jason Ritter again.As Cate collapses and struggles, the other supes also find themselves collapsed and exploring her repressed memories. They delve into the moment when Cate's mother sent her away after her brother's disappearance, caused by Cate's still-uncontrolled powers. They also encounter Soldier Boy, Cate's imaginary friend from childhood, who warns them about the rules of a mind journey. If they die inside Cate's mind, they die in reality, and if Cate dies, they all die.The subsequent memories they explore reveal how deeply messed up each supe truly is. Cate's recruitment by Shetty involved her suppressing Luke's memories of Sam in exchange for compassion and pills to control her own overpowering abilities. This constant wiping of Luke's memories took a toll on him and possibly contributed to his mental unraveling.In one surprising memory, it is revealed that Andre and Cate had been involved romantically even before Luke's death. Later, they stumble upon a memory where Jordan assisted Brink in subduing a troubled Luke, driven by a desire to advance at God U. The supes also revisit the traumatic scene of Marie's parents' murder, where Marie confronts the memory of her unforgiving younger sister.These memories shed light on the flawed choices made by each supe, with their past actions and decisions haunting them. However, amid these revelations, they also find the opportunity to reclaim their powers, agency, and heroism by challenging God U and Dean Shetty.Finally, as Cate is convinced to face the consequences of her actions, the supes are joined by Sam and Emma, who are less than thrilled to see the girl who kept Sam's brother in the dark. With tensions high, they rally together to prevent one of their own from making a reckless decision. Emma's compassion ultimately prevails, reminding Sam that he is better than that.Meanwhile, at God U, Dean Shetty collaborates with Dr. Cardosa on a secret plan involving a virus designed to control supes with Compound V in their blood. It becomes clear that Shetty has gone rogue, seeking to amplify the effects of the virus and explore the possibility of making it contagious.This revelation sets the stage for the climactic final two episodes of the season, as the young supes find themselves fighting for their lives, the livelihood of God U, and the safety of all supes. The stakes have never been higher as they face off against Dean Shetty and her insidious plan.In conclusion, the episode "Jumanji" delves deep into Cate's repressed memories and unveils the complex relationships and struggles of the supes. The revelation of a potential relationship between Andre and Cate before Luke's death adds another layer of complexity to an already intricate narrative. With the stage set for a thrilling season finale, the supes must confront their past choices, reclaim their power, and stand united against the impending threat. The fate of not only their lives but all supes hangs in the balance.
