They go down a hallway (we’ll call it the Green Mile in honor of Michael Duncan Clark, who would have been a bad ass Wesen), and find Stanton going bonkers in an office.

RIP Michael Duncan Clark

They tell him not to do it, so you know he does it, and BAM, shots fired and he’s down. Before he dies, he turns into a  Reinigen which is a rat-like creature. Hank doesn’t like rats.

Hey Hank, BOO!!!

Then the show intro kicks in, and I was so happy to see the original intro without the lame voiceover. Thanks for listening NBC.

Back outside, Ranger Rick is acting normalish, but as he gets his police report, he randomly hits on the policewoman, and she’s all like “um, no thanks, Ranger Rick”. And he’s all “you don’t know what you’re missing”. (Yes, she does… and it’s not much.)

You’re not hot, and my hair isn’t long enough for a ponytail. Deal with it.

RENARD SCENE ALERT… Nick and Hank review the case with him, and while Capt. Renard does, unfortunately, keep his shirt on for the entire scene, Sgt. Wu interrupts them with some more info on Stanton. Nick tells Hank to go get some sleep, that he’ll do the report and Hanks all “You don’t have to twist my arm” and is out of there. Something about Hank’s comment this week and last week when he was like “I could use a nap”, tells me that I’d be the Hank in a Nick and Hank relationship… I’m always ready to volunteer for a nap or just to leave early. We can’t all be heroes. (Oddly, now I feel like a sub… I’m hungry. “Hey Hank, are you busy?)

Yes Hank, it’s nap time.

Renard is at his desk and gets a call from the French Royal, but it’s not his brother, looks more like a butler of some sort. And he appears to be trying to help Renard keep things in line. He says the Families have sent another one and that he should be getting to Portland soon. They sent a Nuckelavee (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuckelavee) to come for the key.

Renard, the Royal Family is not pleased that you are trending #shirtlessrage.

Renard stares pensively out the window. I should do that more, maybe I’d have more productive days.

<<I hope the audience thinks I look deep in thought. Focus, Renard, focus.>> 

Monroe is at his house calling Nick, while Nick is on Monroe’s doorstep calling him. It’s so cute. You go first, no you go first, no you, no you… SHUT UP… Nick tells Monroe that he’s been telling Hank about being a Grimm and some other things. Monroe gets a bit upset, but Nick says he hasn’t told him that Monroe is a Wesen. I guess I’m not sure why it matters so much to Monroe. I mean, he’s a good guy, but I guess Wesens are a private bunch… unless they’re pissed. Monroe suggests a coming out party.

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

    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.
