The plant in the last picture doesn't look too bad, but it noticebly lacks something. It looks very green in the 2nd picture. In the first picture you gave, if you look carefully the plant has some old traps that have red margins, but the new growth in that picture is quite green. This suggests that light levels have been reduced. Also, the usual pattern for a red trapped VFT as it approaches dormancy is to deepen the red in the traps if grown in good lighting. Can you please describe your growing conditions like humidity, water level in the tray,type of water,temperature, and most importantly amount of light? How long have you had the plant? There are too many things that could affect its growth so I wouldn't act so fast as to say stick in the fridge and all will work out.
