So how many deaths at Trouble’s hands will Nick and Hank be able to cover up?
About the same number as the deaths at Nick’s hands they’ve covered up already.
Liked this week’s episode; though the twist about the boxer’s mother was extremely obvious giving the mythology of the show. I’m curious about what the FBI Wesen will be doing.
My money regarding Truble’s abduction is FBI chick is a recruiter for The Resistance.
Oh, reporting from a different source, our favorite newlyweds are now ‘MonRosalee’.
:rolleyes:
They’ve been MonRosalee since season 2. (Bree Turner is credited with coining it, though I’m pretty sure I heard it before that.)
My connection was a little wonky, so I missed a couple of bits – including the scene where Nick is at the eye doctor’s. What exactly is the deal with the anatomy of his eyes?
Supposedly he has more kinds of cones than us ordinary folk, so he can distinguish not just red/green/blue/yellow but human/wessen.
Ah, okay, thanks.
Maybe wesen emit octarine light when they woge. ![]()
I like Renard’s mom, and it looks like we might find out powerful she is next week. Adelind’s story is a little bit more interesting now too. The FBI wesen is part of a third faction.
Pretty good ep I guess. Poor Wu goes another week without a clue.
At 9:55, I was wondering if they were going to make this a two-parter – nope. Yay for Nick getting his powers back.
Trubel is starting to grow on me as a character – I laughed when she slashed the guy’s tires.
And I’ll put this in a spoiler box, for those who consider the “next week on …” promos at the end of the show spoilers:
Looks like Juliette might be preggers. I wonder if this is because she was using birth control and Adelind wasn’t. Whose uterus would be involved? And who would be the mother? And what would a Grimm/hexenbiest cross involve, in terms of powers? This could be interesting!
Nice to see Nick back. At the end of last season I figured they were going to get Nick’s powers back by somehow transferring them from Truble, who obviously didn’t want to be a Grimm. But I agree that I like what they are doing with her character.
Is it just me or are a lot of these “Wesen of the week” starting to blur together? My wife and I were trying to figure out at first if the Wesen with the tongues from last night’s episode were the same as the one Wu saw last season. They weren’t, but many of them are starting to seem very similar.
And the older Wesen guy at the scrapyard - haven’t we seen him somewhere before? (Same actor playing a different Wesen maybe?) He looked very familiar.
Yeah, definitely some repetition of the wesen of the week – but there’s a finite number of possibilities, no?
Other thing I liked this week – that Rudyard Kipling was a Grimm. Talk about your white man’s burden!
You may have just recognized the actor. He’s one of those guys who’s been in everything. I don’t think he’s been on Grimm before.
I see that he was recently in an episode of “Major Crimes”. That’s probably where I’m remembering him from…
I think there’s been some inconsistency on what actually sets Grimm visual abilities apart.
This episode the ‘test’ was clearly “Does Nick see Munroe as a wulfbad when he was voged?” and he didn’t, therefore Nick = ordinary human at that point.
Except – that every single case that has involved human victims reporting that they saw/were attacked by ‘monsters’ means that ordinary humans DO see the wesen when they are voged. Like Sgt. Wu. Heck, there was an example in this very episode, where the young daughter of one of the previously taken twosomes reported that her parents were taken by a monster. And we have seen myriad cases of humans seeing wesen appearances, generally while they are under attack, accepting that the camera angles, etc, clearly imply they are showing us what the attackee is seeing. Or, completely blatant: last weeks episode with the woman married to the trio of not-quite wulfbads. No way was she failing to see a voged wesen, she was able to describe and draw what he looked like.
So Nick not seeing Munroe’s true appearance when he was voged – well, that was even a step beyond ‘normal’ human blindness.
.
I always thought the difference was that Grimm could see a wesen’s other appearance even when they weren’t voged. Like him spotting Adalind’s when she was simply walking down a street in the very first episode.
It is consistent - the wesen can vogue under stress/normal situations - and still not be seen by ordinary humans - they can also vogue in such a way as to make themselves seen by ordinary humans.
This was explained early on -
Yeah, Monroe explained the two types quite clearly at one point, I then when they were bringing Hank into their confidence (as he’d previously seen Monroe in full voge).
I like Trubel more now too. She’s not always consistent, being an obnoxious teen apparently raised by wolves, then the next week she has her shit together. Now she seems to have her shit together most of the time and she’s a cool character. How’d she get her bicycle back?
I like the guy who’s father was a Grimm too. All around, the show has pretty good characters, although I could live without the guy from Buffy/Angel.
Another week poor Wu is in the dark.
Seems early for a Christmas episode. Is the show going on hiatus?
A lot of shows are wrapping up their fall season now – lots o’ reruns and cheesy specials over the holidays, they’ll be back in the new year.
