Monroe tells Nick about his boring call with Juliette (I think it would so funny if Nick would have been like “who?” and then we’d just awkwardly end that story line).

Does this sweater scream hipster?

Juliette opens the fridge and has another flashback about the plumber freaking out when he saw Nick. She pulls out a beer, Nick gets home, they stare at each awkwardly and I am distracted by one of my dogs until the scene ends. Juliette made some pasta… and scene… and I’m back. UGH!!!

Zzzzzzzzzz.

At the station, Renard asks some random cop to look at flight manifests to find a guy coming to Portland, from Rome, through JFK… he tells him to contact Homeland Security… good to see the Patriot Act gets involved in Wesen affairs too.

Ranger Rick is suffering a severe case of bacne and clearly is infected with something not healthy.

This episode is brought to you by Proactiv.

Rosalee gets to her apothecary in a sweater that is only slightly uglier than the sweater Monroe was just wearing. It appears her evil cat has escaped its plastic carrier by directly ramming straight through the side of it. She gets the cat to chase her out onto the street (thanks Rosalee) and at the same time Monroe shows up.

The cat got out, how? It was probably because he hated your sweater.

Monroe, like me, worries about the cat being out in the wild, but then we hear tires screech and a “thump” and we all know it’s cat-down outside. That’s probably for the best.

Screeeeechhh… Thump… Cat problem solved.

Monrosalee agree they will clean up later, but first, it’s time for the picnic with Monroe’s pic-a-nic basket. Monroe is kinda funny. He’s just so endearing… BUT WAIT… they tricked me into another scene with Juliette and the plumber’s wife’s homemade quilt. I hate her blouse, I like the quilt. I’d use it to wrap her body when I dumped it.

Oh yeah, she’s totes ready for a Downy commercial.

Renard is still sitting at his desk (I hope his legs are okay, he hasn’t moved much this episode), and he’s looking up Nick’s parent’s obituary. He does this a lot in his spare time. I guess every episode we have to be reminded because we’re too dumb to remember that there’s something fishy about their death. But, since NBC gave me the original opening, I’ll give them this.

Spoiler, Nick’s mom didn’t die… oh wait, WE ALL KNOW.

The policeman stops in and says he’s found the man that Renard was probably looking for on those flights. A guy showed up, no hotel or car, but a cab driver is missing… typical Nuckelavee.

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.
