Happy Friday, Gasmis. I am very sorry that I am so late with getting this recap posted. I have a whole bunch of excuses, and believe me, they were good ones… but why bother… time to get to the recap.

In this season’s fourth episode, Quill, we start with a parks and recreation employee sitting in his government issue truck listening to classical music… I didn’t see a tree or blade of grass, so maybe he was working in the concrete jungle that day.

Low and behold, an SUV comes barreling up behind him and slams into the back of Ranger Rick’s truck. Ranger Rick stumbles out of his truck and heads back to check on the guy that just hit him and is met with a man with a serious case of acne. He jumps out of his SUV and attacks Ranger Rick, until Ranger Rick goes all porcupine on his ass and scares him off.

I am so firing by Botox doctor, and by doctor, I mean Dental Hygienist.

At a local diner, we see Nick explaining to Hank some of the nuances of being a Grimm and who can see what and why and that Nick’s family cut peoples’ heads off. Hank takes it in stride and is interested in the Kindle version of the Book of Grimm, but Nick tells him there’s no book (yes there is, we see it every episode), anyway… their phones ring and “duty calls”… haha “duty”… classic.

So, was this Grimm book on the Oprah’s Book List?

While they are heading the scene of the accident, we find Juliette going through Nick’s closet wondering why she can’t remember him. She takes out one of his sweaters and smells it, but nothin’.

Next career step, Downy commercial.

So cut to Monroe (aka Yogi Bear this week), who is cleaning up his pic-a-nic basket. He gets a call from Juliette (guess she’s not programmed into his phone because it doesn’t appear that he makes an attempt to ignore the call).

I fix clocks and collect jackets.

Juliette asks him “Me and Nick, how were we?” (you sucked, but the bigger question for me is it “me and Nick” or “Nick and I”? this is one that I always confuse) but Monroe didn’t really have much of an answer. Sorry Juliette, doesn’t seem like anyone was a big fan of yours.

How do I get off this call, this chick is harshing my pic-a-nic vibe. 

Nick and Hank get to the scene of the accident, and Sgt. Wu fills them in on what he know so far. Wu says that Ranger Rick, Ryan Gilko, was hit and then attacked by Carl Stanton. Next item up is to find Stanton. Nick, Hank, and Wu go to check out the building that Stanton had run into and see blood all over the walls and every piece of office equipment circa 1994.

The 90s called, they want their monitors back.

    I’m so mad that we have to wait till September 28 th for the next episode, plus it’s moving to Friday night again.
    I loved that Monroe and Rosalee are finally getting together. Great episode!

    Ok, I just finished the first page, but 1) I am so glad you posted a recap! I got worried. And 2) I laughed so hard at the computers! I had to think for a minute if Grimm has secretly been a period drama all along and we just didn’t notice. It WOULD explain Monroe’s car…but they’re too internet savvy for that to be the case.

    Ok, now that I’ve finished…..thank you for the nuckelavee info! I thought he looked sort of like a horse-jaguar, which shows how much I know about wesen. Anyway, the picture of Renard’s screen was hilarious to me for some reason. They want him checking out Singles over 50!

    @Jessi, i totally forgot to write something about that… when i did the screen capture, i saw the dating ad, but then forgot to mention it. good eyes. it’s the worst how my computer knows where i look and all of a sudden the side ads relate to me… apparently i want to lose weight fast, buy burberry luggage, and clip coupons.

    Very funny recap!!! I enjoyed the tone immensely. Now I know it’s not just me with the wife . . . I never know if it’s just me not getting it. I kind of like her better now that she forgets him, but I ask . . . if you were attracted to someone, and then forgot you ever were together, and then they come at you and say, “Honey, honey, honey” wouldn’t you go for it? It would be like when the wife puts on a wig after 7 years and introduces her sexy doppleganger . . .yes?

    oh well.

    I never knew wiki had stuff about grimm on it, maybe Juliette should look up grimm there.

    I think Rosalee is super pretty, even her change was pretty . . . a rare occurrence here.

    I’m so confused with the secret phone calls and all that stuff. I don’t know why it took Nick so long to trust Hank. Hank is kind of hunky to me . . .

    This show is a good companion piece to face off, tho I think most of the changes are digital . . .

    @juddfan, there are lots of little sub plots carrying through, and i was having a tough time when i started recapping this show… plus figuring out the spelling of half the words, i was going nuts, but this site here (http://grimm.wikia.com/wiki/Grimm) actually gives a fairly good explanation of all the families, phone calls, and creatures… and of course, feel free to read past recaps on this site.

    i’m glad you enjoyed it. and juliette… she just gets on my last nerve and i’m ready for her to take a hike.

    Me vs. I: Which sounds correct when you omit the other person? ex. Crankyguy and I went to Walmart to buy cheesy puffs using food stamps; if you wanted cheesy puffs you should have come with me and Crankyguy. Hope that helps!

    I feel so bad for Monroe. I want to cuddle him because I feel like he can’t have nice things.
    He makes a new friend. Turns out to be a Grimm who will make him into a sidekick/slave/teacher.
    He reconnects with an old girlfriend. Turns out the bitch is cray and wants him to be a bad Blutbad again.
    He is commissioned to fix an old, rare clock. Turns out it’s a trap…he doesn’t get to work with the clock and gets his ass kicked instead.
    He meets a girl he likes who will respect his lifestyle. Whoops, she’s a Fuchsbau so who knows how that will work.
    He runs into an old friend. Friend dies a miserable death before his eyes because of some pharmacological shenanigans. He then has to abandon friend’s body in the woods.
    He takes the girl out on a perfect date. Date is ruined by a deranged and sick porcupine thing.
    Girl tries to jump his bones. Turns out she has this gnarly disease that 95% made her do it.
    I mean come on. When will he win? ;___;

    And I kind of like Juliette! She’s kind of annoying, which is probably why she has literally no friends besides Nick’s friends, but I think she’s okay. She’s going about her memory loss thing all wrong though. Hasn’t she ever seen The Vow? Obviously, if you forgot everything about your perfect boyfriend, then you need to start getting to know him again by spending time with him. Don’t skulk around in his closets, smelling his stuff and asking random people about your life together like some creeper.
