Based on the ones we actually saw Krampus go after, I say good for him. Anyone who steals someone else’s Christmas presents deserves to be eaten by a goat man. Especially that jerkwad that smashed the snowglobe. ---

Hitler as wesen was lame – gotta admit, I liked the Rasputin storyline, though. And I was knitting, so looked away from the screen at the wrong time – what kind of wesen is Juliet’s friend? Do we know? ---

We had an amber alert interrupt the end so missed the scene from where the wife does her thing to the chambermaid and then by the time it was over we’re back at the house getting the phone call. Anything vitally important happen in the gap? ---

Wasn’t the wife on the phone with the assassin when the maid walked in? i did not understand that at all. ---

> [@DigitalC](#): > > Wasn’t the wife on the phone with the assassin when the maid walked in? i did not understand that at all. I think that was the maid. Because they were siblings. But the show wanted you to believe it was the wife (until the reveal), who was having an affair. ---

> [@Snooooopy](#): > > You know, it seems kind of odd to me that Monroe, for someone who gets into Christmas decorations as wholeheartedly as he does, appears to get around to the actual process of putting up the decorations so late in the season. Unless I missed a fairly big passage of time, the whole episode takes place right around the winster solstice, right? I would have pegged Monroe as the kind of guy who is breaking out the tinsel and the Christmas tree approximately five minutes after Thanksgiving dinner is finished. He’s German, though, isn’t he? If so and he’s [going by tradition](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_tree#Setting_up_and_taking_down) he actually was a few days early. ---

The early info about the episode said that Olga was a Malin Fatal, which was described as a Siberian tiger or saber-toothed tiger. They did mention Malin Fatal in the trailer scene (Stalin’s bodyguards), but Olga sure didn’t look feline to me. Perhaps they decided to go with something different in post-production. (Looked like we get a tiger next week–maybe that’s why). ---

That’s the fan-run wiki, but yes, that’s all we can go with unless they give us something else on the NBC site. ---

> [@RikWriter](#): > > She looked like a fuchsbau (?) to me. Yes, she looked like Rosalee when wogued out or whatever it is. I gotta say, that storyline is already more interesting to me than the whole drawn out royals thing. About the only thing that has going for it is Wesley Windham Price turning up as the Capt’s cousin. ---

Making Juliette’s friend one of Rosalee’s kind sure seemed like it would have been a pretty terrific excuse to actually fit Rosalee into the episode. I’m disappointed. ---

They’re not done with that particular subplot yet – I’m sure Rosalee will get involved soon enough. ---

> [@VunderBob](#): > > Well well. Juliet can kick some ass… “I’m not impressed \” Good episode - knew the kid would end up being a wessen (and by extension Hank’s girl) but liked the way they handled it. Really liked that the rival gang was NOT wessen. ---

Interesting that both plots had wessen who were not OK with their wessentude. But introducing the friend to Rosalee would have made sense Brian [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/grimm-season-3/672102.md?page=3) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/grimm-season-3/672102.md?page=5)
