Back with Sgt. Wu, Captain Renard, Hank and Nick at the warehouse, Sgt. Wu finds a shell casing and Nick panics when he remembers that he dropped his gun and never had a chance to get it earlier. He is able to grab it while everyone is distracted, but Hank sees something and files it away in his brain file labeled “Weird Nick Things”.
Of course the FBI agents show up to take over. Hank’s all “fine by me, I need a nap”. (I need a nap too. I spent my afternoon at an Apple store and I didn’t need an app to tell me that I didn’t like one person in there.)
Whatevs, I’ve got some Xanax at home with my name on them.
On his way back to the station, Nick stops by a large body of water and throws his gun and holster as far as he can (and it really wasn’t that far… just sayin’). He takes a moment to look lost in thought, but he quickly regroups and heads back to his car and stops by the station to see what his partner is up to, since they clearly don’t work together (they’re no Benson and Stabler, I gotta tell ya).
The FBI are there too and they want Nick’s gun and DNA. Nick says he doesn’t have his gun on him because he was at the hospital, but Hank is digging into his “Weird Nick Things” file and remembers his gun at the warehouse. Nick gives up the DNA because he has nothing to hide. As they head down to their cars, Hank tells Nick in no uncertain terms that he knows something is up and he doesn’t want to be left in the wind. Nick acknowledges him and then promptly leaves him in the wind.
At the station, looking at a picture of the dead Mauvais Dentes, Cpt. Renard calls his French brother, Eric, (this is the guy that was at the beating I didn’t understand from last week). Renard wants the family to be patient. The brother says the family isn’t so inclined. For a minute, I thought it might be Adalind in Eric’s bed, but I don’t think so.
Not Adalind, right?
Looks like the Maloof family is still up.
Catherine stops by Rosalee’s apothecary to pick up the last item on her list for the potion that will bring Juliette out of her coma. When Rosalee tells her the total is $300, Catherine and I both make the same WTF face. Rosalee wisely gives her a discount and she leaves. It was kinda off to see Monroe being so defensive of Rosalee, at least in this scene… I mean, she was clearly ripping Catherine off, so what’s the big fuss. Monroe should save that masculine energy for a real threat.
If you like it, spread it!:

xanax? nap? yes, please.
I am loving the new intro: “There once was a man…. This — is the life of a Grimm!” Not since BtvS has there been such a dramatic, tension filled, voiceover show intro.
Birds have sex in the pretty standard way most animals do, with the male somewhat on top/behind.
Goose sex is overly complicated because, to prevent the crazy amounts of rape amongst geese (it’s seriously high), the females have developed complex, tunneling vaginal entries while the males have, in competitive adaptation, developed corkscrew penises.
As far as reproduction, the eggs are fertilized internally, then the female lays and incubates the fertilized eggs.
There, I answered your bird sex questions. Got any more pics of Renard shirtless?
Holy cow, Whedonite… You’re my hero. But is goose rape considered “legitimate rape”? Can Grimm fans be political?
I promise to always include at least one shirtless Renard pic. Regardless of relevance to the recap.
Now I have to take a Xanax so I don’t dream about corkscrew penises.
Goose rape. Haha. I can’t stop laughing.
Isn’t “legitimate rape” an oxymoron?
Ok!! This is officially the most informative recap EVER!! I, too, was unaware of the issue of “goose rape” – what is the world coming to?
Actually, this is the second bit of info I’ve picked up this morning. Apparently, there are roving bands of penis thieves in China. Seriously! A guy named Fei Lin had his penis stolen while he slept. I repeat, what is the world coming to!!!
Not only do I love the recaps, I always look forward to the comments. You guys are awesome!!
If this potion caused Renard to Hulk out of his shirt, why couldn’t it do the same where his pants are concerned?
@WICD, i looked up the story of poor Fei Lin, but found it odd that in the pic of him, the only thing blurred out was (were?) his eyes… and not to stereotype, but don’t most Asian eyes look alike? (and all you with sick minds, it was a pic from the waist up.)
@cosmonala, exactly… plus his two little butterfly stitches remained in place during his Hexenbiest morph.
Madelyn27, I’m loving the recap,. I’m a Grimm fan who also enjoys a little sarcasm & wit with my shows. The pics & comments are genius. Can’t wait to read more..thanks for the laugh this morning.. And the goose rape was an added bonus
Renard is hot. #thatisall
..wait not quite. If Juliette falls in love with Renard..I QUIT!!
Thanks for the recap and since I was so quick to be critical over last week’s recap, I have to be equally willing to bestow the kudos on a very well written, wonderfully observant and deliciously snarky rehash. EXACTLY what I come to TVGasm to peruse. Thanks.
yeah, I agree a great recap! You guys can have Renard, I prefer Nick. Although Renard is sexy when he speaks French.
Juliette doesn’t bother me, I understand why her character is needed, it brings a sense of normalcy to the story. It’s Hank that I don’t like. I’m interested in seeing how they handle the revealing to him. I’m liking Scarface’s character and in particular the actress is excellent so kudos to them for hiring her. I like that she’s a badass, goofy magazine and all.
@suebreaz: I think the goose rape was an added bonus for us all.
@chacha: Yes, I was making a Todd Akin goose joke.
@Tonya: She can fall, as long as he rejects.
@Grimoire: Again, thank you for your advice last week, I got me in line, bc y”all deserve the best.
@zerocool: Hank reminds me of Meshach Taylor from Designing Women, so I have a hard time liking him too, but I don’t want to dislike too many people. And Nick is too young/short for me, but his mom, Scarface, is the perfect pick for a mysterious good/badass. I like Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio. And Juliette, I’ve just never been a fan of the weakly plotted side-stories. Like I don’t need to know about Stabler’s kids at home on Law & Order: SVU, just give me the case.
Thanks so much for your comments, I’m so thankful for your input and laughs, and make sure you invite your friends to read too… (even if it means admitting that you read recaps… The first step is admitting it… the other 11 phases are for wimps.)
Great recap this week, lots of laughs, going to turn my friends on to this!
Great recap! I’m so glad I wasn’t the only one who noticed Nick threw his gun about 8 feet from shore. HAHAHA. Wuss.
@bluzgirl – i just have to tell you that when you called nick a wuss last week, it just made me laugh and then in this week’s recap, i ended up using wuss two or three times bc the word was stuck in my brain… 8 ft… wuss… it’s up there with “douche”…
