UGH… Now here we have a scene I don’t quite understand. There is a guy in a dungeon being beaten for being part of the resistance. A man in black (watching the beating) gets a phone call from the guy that was in the shipping vessel, and they speak in French (tres bien, mon ami, all the basics so we know they’re French)…

 

So familiar, but this episode is starting to lose me.

Catherine goes to Rosalee’s apothecary shop with a list. Rosalee immediately recognizes what the items could be used for and tells her they don’t have one of the items. Catherine does the facial contortion thing, and voila, Rosalee says she’ll try to find it. (I think I must give my daughter that look sometimes, because all of a sudden, she’s cleaning her room.)

Do I look like I want to Biggie Size it?

Nick takes Scarface to look at one of the dead bodies. She says with teeth marks like that it must be a Movadon (total liberty on spelling here), which is a catlike vicious killing machine that can take out an entire village.

Rosalee and Monroe call Nick to tell him about the Hexabeast that came into her shop and tell him that her list is what would be used to make a potion to wake up a person in Juliette’s condition. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO… let’s allow her to continue napping; she’s managed to stay off my nerves so far this season.

 

Story line 14 in Episode 1

Catherine calls Renard and tells him that Adalind is gone like the wind, but that she can wake Juliette up. However, while it’s not difficult to make the potion to wake her up, but it’s the challenge of administration. And not just how it’s given, but by whom? (I have a really sick mind, so I’m all over the place here. I’ll take Renard, with the potion, in the bedroom.)

 Nick storms into Catherine’s house looking for Adalind. Catherine does her scary face thing and Nick leaves. Great scene.

 

I’m not taking visitors right now.

Okay, I’ll leave, but first, you MUST tell me where you got these curtains. (I love them.)

Captain Renard is on the phone, speaking French, (I so love that I need a foreign language to be spoken so that I can follow a storyline)… He informs someone that there are, in fact “deux” Grimms (that’s two for all you non-French speaking people) and that Kimura did not get the coins. He goes on to say that the Grimms cannot get to Kimura and that “I do not want the family to know”. So my guess here is that he’s speaking of the Royal Family.

It's never too soon. It's never too far. And it's never the wrong time.

    I appreciate that someone is recapping Grimm, but I truly miss the recapper ( SG ) from season one. It just seems as if this recapper really doesn’t care for the show and not really interested in anything that involves any sort of continuation. The coins of Zaynthos must be destroyed on the island on which they were forged. They figured in several episodes of season one. The Mauvais Dentes ( sabre tooth wesen ) is the “cat” in the cat and mouse game. Mama Grimm mentioned that they were cruel and enjoyed toying with their prey. I do appreciate the delicious side bar and appreciation ( on very different levels ) of both Renard and Wu. I would hope that a little more effort in glancing at a rerun or maybe going to NBC.com and looking at the recaps for wesen names and the mythological geography. I don’t want to appear unappreciative of ANYONE that puts in the effort to recap for TVGASM. Grimm is one of my all time favorite shows and I love it for the camp factor that lends itself to such exquisite snarkiness that I do so love.

    You’re absolutely correct in that I didn’t do enough homework. But it is not for any dislike of the show, but limited time. When I watched season 1, I never thought I’d be recapping the show, so I didn’t pay as much attention, and when I was assigned this show last week, I didn’t have time to rewatch all the episodes or read past recaps.

    But hopefully you’ll stick with me, help me out when I get names wrong, and maybe even have a couple of laughs. I’ve been doing alot of reading today and hopefully will be more caught up with the storylines next week.

    I am new to the show, but officially addicted. Enjoyed the recap, M, love the gory details, appreciate the sarcasm.

    I loved when Monroe was like Dude your mom is kind of a bitch! I’m not sure if I like Nick’s mom or not, but I cannot stand Juliet.

    –Madelyne– I am in for the long haul. Looking forward to reading more and will do what I can to help a little. The fact that you are ACTUALLY recapping and I am just living vicariously through your words, humbles me. It is always fun to see if other find the same things as funny as I do when they slip in the throw away lines…

    I don’t know if Renard is supposed to be the villian of the story or not, but I absolutely love him. He’s just so………yum. I have a hard time following what’s going on with the story, too, because if Renard or Monroe aren’t on the screen, I tend to get distracted. Hopefully, this season will have more of a mytharc than last season’s Wesen-of-the-Week, and I’ll HAVE to pay attention. I’m looking forward to it!!

    Hi M, I’ll take “Batsht crazy” for $500 please!

    I love this show, have watched from first episode but this one? Ummmm…. Did we go to college together because my brain cells seem to have gone the same way as yours. I got lost. I got confused.

    Now, I agree with your assessment of mom – seems like a lying bitch to me – and will keep watching. Plus… I plan to hang with you on the recaps! I laughed a few times and began to wonder if all us moms pull that face from time to time? ; ) Thanks for doing this!

    Here I thought you were calling her “Scarface” because she played Tony Montana’s sister.

    Because I totally forgot about the actual scar on her face. Derr.

    I don’t think the WRITERS have decided if Renard is truly good or evil yet. But he is aptly named: Renard is French for fox.

    As for Julilet, now that she is losing her memory, it would be fun if when she wakes up, she gravitates toward evil. Then maybe Nick will have to kill her and we’ll be rid of her albatross of a character.

    Oh…and that isn’t a “sceptor” on the wall. It’s a scythe…and represents the reapers who appeared in multiple season one episodes.

    Yes. A scythe, thank you. Do I get points for knowing it was an “S” Word? (which reminds me of an old SNL/Sean Connery/Jeopardy skit.)

    I’ve been studying all things Grimm all night. Next week that show will be my btch. (maybe)

    Lol Yes…points for knowing it was an “s” word.

    Since we all seem to be in agreement on our dislike of Juliette, let’s speculate on how they can A.) improve her and/or B.) get rid of her.

    Seems to me that having Juliette go over to the “dark side” could be VERY interesting. I mean, she’s a vet, right? Most of these characters have probably required the services of a medical professional on occasion. It could get interesting if Nick hurts ‘em and Juliette patches ‘em back up! Just a thought along the ‘make her more interesting’ lines!

    The most interesting thing she could do, in my opinion, is wake up, come home, cook a dinner, and half-way through, when Nick gets a phone call that he has a case, she would flip the table over like Theresa on RHONJ and scream “I’m outta here.” And just leave. But that’s just me… and probably what I would do…. except not “cooking dinner”, more “ordering dinner”.

    But Juliette and mom might be fun to watch. As long as it goes badly.
