To me, the doc has a weird reaction (and a scary artifact mask on her wall that doesn’t seem like a therapeutic aid for patients), but I’m guessing she’s some type of Wesen. I could be reading into it too much, but her worrisome look makes me wonder.

I wonder if he can see me change from a therapist to the-rapist?

Nick and Monroe go to visit Juliette and she remembers all about Monroe, but still zip with Nick. I think he should take the opportunity to realize that all his past mistakes are wiped clean… and he’s cute enough to win her over again. I never saw The Vow, so I don’t know how that turned out, but because it’s a romantic travesty comedy, I’ll assume he won his wife back… so if it works on the big screen, it’s gotta work on TV.

Juliette remembers specific events that occurred with Monroe and Nick, but she only remembers that Monroe was there. Adalind certainly managed to put on an exacting curse. I must say I’m impressed. Nick leaves Monroe at the hospital to catch up with Juliette. (Monroe: “Thanks for leaving me with the dud scene of the evening”.)

 

Um, Monroe, my Mac seems to be stuck on this pic of me making out with a stranger.

Coyotl Ugly pull Carly up from the well so that Uncle Coyotl could tell her that they were family and that her daddy brought shame on their family when he took her mom and left the pack. They let her know that they are there to take her back.

Kurt goes all glowy eyed on his cousin. I’ve been there.

We then have the one scene in the ENTIRE SHOW with Captain Renard. They talk about the Catherine and Adalind Schade case. They both think they need to find Adalind, but that’s really the only reference to the past episode we hear this week. Nick goes back to his desk and Hank tells him about the therapist and that he’s not sure about his ability to be a cop anymore. Nick tells him he’s a good cop and that he promises to give him more air time, and less wussy time in the future.

Sgt. Wu comes over and interrupts, just as Nick was getting close to telling the truth to Hank, that some friend of his, Jarold is at the station and wants to talk to Hank. Turns out Hank and Jarold are old friends and Hank is Carly’s godfather. Introductions are made and Jarold tells Hank (and Nick) that Carly is missing. He has her cell phone and has been trying to reach her friends, but he can’t find her and he’s worried. While they are discussing possible scenarios, Hank looks away for a minute and Jarold conveniently goes Coyotl on Nick. 

One of those actors that has been in 100 shows, but you can’t place even one.

    “One of those actors that has been in 100 shows, but you can’t place even one.”

    Mark Pellegrino was in Lost and Supernatural :-p Love seeing him play a somewhat normal character (relatively speaking, of course).

    Mark Pellegrino was also in Being Human (the US version). He’s great at playing creepy! I especially loved him in Lost (until the show and his character got lame at the end of the final season).

    I actually have never seen Lost. But he was also on Dexter. Played Dexter’s dead wife’s ex-husband.

    Anyway. I like him too. He can come back on future episode. Shirtless of course.

    Ok, who is the girl who played Carly? And by that I mean – what have I seen her in before this? She looks so familiar!

    And I’m with you, M, Hank is a much better character ‘in the know’ than he was as the clueless sidekick. I think they milked that for as long as they could -and then some. Wonder if he will catch the Captain in the act before Nick figures it out? That could be fun!

    Since I can’t recall (have blocked out) my own stupid-sober actions, I will tattle on my kids. On a day off from school while I was at work, my children went outside and decided to play tag. When it got boring, they stuffed pine cones into the leaf blower and fired them at one another. (my neighbor said it was hilarious) The day ended with a run to the emergency room for my daughter’s broken arm and stitches for my son and to this day, I’m still not sure I got the whole story. Ok, maybe this goes on my list too for thinking that they could be trusted for 2 hours alone! My only excuse is that they were 12 and 14 at the time and I honestly thought they’d sleep until noon. Not quite on par with your nail polish/lip gloss story but afterwards I did ask myself, “what the Hell were you thinking?”

    Pine cones in a leaf blower… you have just planned my next family get together… we may all be older, but we’re not one bit wiser… and i have two younger brothers i’d love to torture. and air soft guns just don’t put the fear of God in them as it used to do.

    Carly was played by Maddie Hasson. the only thing i see she was in for a while was a show called The Finder. I have heard of it, but never saw it…

    @spanky… i was the missionary kid… i know you… and you were not sheltered. haha

    The little girl playing Carly was the adorable gypsy Willa on the now sadly-cancelled “The Finder”.

    Also, I think she only realized Nick was a Grimm because it showed on his face when he saw her get all glowy-eyed.

    Have fun! My kids still grin at one another every time this comes up so I feel certain there’s more to the story.

    And YES!! I knew I recognized that girl! “Finder” came on as a tie-in to the show “Bones” but never really took off. Michael Clark Duncan was also in it. Not the worst show I’ve ever seen but kinda… Aimless and wandering. It was driving me crazy not being aboe to figure it out so appreciate the info.

    Does anyone else think that Hank maybe one of the royal family’s. We were discussing this at work, he now has the ability to see them and he knocked the Coyetl on his ass with one punch (super strength like Nick?)

    not a bad point, featherhead… and if not royal, then at least something, bc he is seeing things too… but they do need the one normal character. i’m actually really enjoying this season. even if i do have to watch each episode 7 times.

    Yeah, we were tossing around that maybe Hank is a royal or whatever Adline (Hexenbeast) had done to him may have given him those abilities. I can’t wait till we finally find out. I love this show!!

    @Madelyne27: I am absolutely loving your recaps!!! I just got caught up on all 3 episodes, so I’m a couple pages into this recap, and loving it!

    I was sooo happy to see Willa from The Finder! (Though Willa would have fought back harder and kicked those guy’s asses!!) (And The Finder was cancelled?!? (*sad face*)!

    Oh, and I feel the need to share this little factoid….Nick got his “start” on Road Rules…! I looked him up a while ago to see what else he had been in, and if you look under “self”, it’s all there. I didn’t watch that show, but there are pictures on line of him in it.

    Ok, back to the recap…(PS I hate Juliette, too….I just want her to GO AWAY) (PPS I LOVE Monroe…I could use more of him!) :)

    All I could think about when you used “therapist” and “the-rapist” is Tobais Funke’s analyst + therapist= “analrapist”.

    Hank is one bad mutha. One punch knocks the Coyotl to the ground and gives him back his “normal” face. Nick could learn a thing or two.

    Excellent re-cap. I really loved this episode. Again, I am defending Juliette – I thought those scenes were really well done; Nick had my sympathy.

    The Coyotl dad (never saw him before) did a great job. I think the casting director has either been replaced, or is really stepping it up this season.

    Things I learned from this episode: it sucks to be a female Coyotl.

    The Coyotl dad was awesome in this and awesome on the Closer! Two such completely different characters that I was super impressed. Also, hooray Hank is catching on! Hooray, Juliette is home… Well, at least she’s pretty? I covet her face angles.
