Grimm Recap: Oh Captain, My Captain

Season 6/ Episode 3 / NBC [quote_simple]“You will face yourself again in a moment of terror.”[/quote_simple] Monroe walks out the spice shop’s back room just in time to see and hear a cop checking the place out, flashlight peering in the windows and all. Since the whole gang—Nick, Juleve, Rosalee, Wu, and Hank—is in the basement and Nick is Portland’s Most Wanted, they don’t exactly feel protected or served.

Nick and Juleve leave to take some of the heat off. Rosalee is going to keep trying to find the origins of the symbols Diana saw on the (magic stick) cloth and drew. Nick grabs the cloth and Juleve snaps a picture of everything. Back at Casa de Dead Bonaparte, Adalind is staring at the cursed ring Bonaparte put on her when he forced her to get engaged to Renard. Since the threat was that if she took it off then her children would suffer great pain, I’m rooting for her to take it off. Because, welp, I don’t like Diana at all. Her and purple-eyed evil can get on. Renard comes home from a long day of double-crossing Adalind and Nick, just in time to threaten her about being a supportive First Lady of Portland. So, hold up, why is Renard in season 6 acting like Renard in season 1 when he had literally four seasons of change and character development? What is happening here? Also, even if he is truly evil and all that working with Nick was a façade (what?!?!) wouldn’t self-preservation alone make him be a little nicer the hellspawn’s mom or is he counting on her being a daddy…
