The 2nd episode of the third season of Grimm was better than the first , although that might be because this felt like the second - half of a two - hour premiere — a premiere that should have been cut down to one hour , but whatever .
Nick is still a automaton bunghole drunk soccer yobo , so he tries to snipe the family from the remainder of last calendar week ’s installment ; this is fool in traditional horror movie style , and seeing our booster to break down the door to menace two lovely little girls is a nice touch . Eventually , Hank and Monroe show up and trap Nick in what must be the earth ’s sturdiest barn until Renard , Rosalee and Juliette show up to administer the antidote .
It ’s claim another dose and a farsighted amount of time , but Nick finally does get dependable , but ca n’t remember anything he did while under the influence of Baron Samedi goo . Juliette and the others take an agonizingly long sentence telling Nick he beat them and many , many other people up during his rampage , but he finally gets told .
What they do n’t cognise is that one of the participants in Nick ’s bar bash has died , make Nick a murderer . This is by far the most interesting development in the episode , but dealt with in traditional Grimm mode : Someone tells Renard . Renard tells Hank . Hank and Renard tell everyone else , so we see the same information three separate times . And they get their account straight — the lunatic was Thomas Shirach , the imitation name on the faux passport Renard ’s blood brother had made to smuggle Nick out of America . The only person they do n’t tell Is Nick , because he ’s feeling a turn fragile .
Of course , they do n’t seek to foreclose Nick from find out , because Renard tells the two detectives investigate the murder to talk to Juliette and Rosalee ( they were all witnessed at the bar ) . The detectives interview Rosalee — who gives the full story she and the other ’s have concocted — then Juliette , who also repeats all the same story , just in case we miss it , but also with almost the exact same words , but whatever . Of course , Nick is there when the investigator arrive , and they nonchalantly herald the murder , in what is mere hours after they all decided Nick should n’t know about it .
Nick goes to the precinct to reverse himself in . Hank tries to stop him and fails . Renard shows him the footage of the barroom fight he stole , and maneuver out the dandy who died was the guy wire who deplume a tongue on him and even if he was in a drunken soccer hooligan rage , it was still technically ego - defence . So Nick does n’t recite the cops and feels really unsound about it , even though he ’s a Grimm who needs to protect the human subspecies from the monsters hidden amongst them , which you might think would be a more significant calling than dish a jail sentence , but again , whatever .
The 2d interesting matter in this episode is that Renard has his brother Eric mangle . If I vocalise like I do n’t think this shocking , momentous game ontogeny is n’t that momentous , that might be because it happens entirely off - projection screen . gravely , Renard sees it on the news . I understand Grimm has a budget , but really ? You ’re just going to drink down off ( or even pretend to vote down off ) a major antagonist with some schmo Renard asked ? Ugh .
Oh , and Adalind is still doing gross shit to try and celebrate her Hexenbiest powers , and still not achieving anything . The last bit includes scratch Frau Pech / dead flowers juice on her pot .
Assorted Musings :
• I figure the chance of Nick find out next episode that the dude died of some sort of medical consideration that could have happened at any mo , so that Nick is n’t a murderer to be 93 % .
• Adalind seems kind of prissy for a Hexenbiest . She ’s a witch , right-hand ? And this is a witch ritual ? Seems like she ’d be more used to fucking around with rotting remains , is all .
