I still don't understand why Luke is helping them at all. Damon is openly hostile to him, and the others are indifferent. If protecting the Doppelgangers was important to the witches, the rest of his coven would be helping, too. Hanging with a group that could easily get you killed because your family "lacks

Excellent points…I guess I just assumed from Roger's comment about "Mary Wells sitting on Don's lap" that he thought they'd be an unstoppable team. But you're right — Don's ego is not that simple. I would rather face the challenge of a new workplace than the humiliations of a demotion at SCP, but clearly something

So she's okay with someone she barely knew sleeping in her apartment all night, but still thought she might rob her? After Peggy had that tipsy heart-to-heart with Dawn about her dreams and aspirations, I really thought they might become friends, but then Peggy's (understandable, for the period) stereotypes popped

I still don't get why Don agreed to this, though, instead of just making them buy him out and going to another agency. I mean, the partners had every right to set those new rules of conduct, but Don has a lucrative offer at Wells, Rich, Greene! I know I'm slow sometimes, but when he said "okay" I was genuinely

And he's always hilarious on SNL, and had a great cameo on Parks & Rec last week.

Not to mention Peggy's casual racism, as she agonized over leaving her purse with a sleeping Dawn; her slut-shaming Joan; or her outright assholism with Shirley last week. Peggy is no different from any other character on MM — she has moments when you root for her and moments when you want to slap the smirk off her

If only Betty could become the TV drama version of Laura Petrie.

Completely agree. That tension — on both fronts — was unbearable. And yet when I tried to explain it to a non-MM viewer this morning ("It was awful! Don waited in the office all morning for the partners to call a meeting!") she just gave me a Betty-worthy eyeroll…

100% agree. I would only add that Betty's overreaction was heightened by Bobby giving away her sandwich to a competing female — which, in Betty's bitter mind, reminded her of Don's many dalliances. For Betty, it's like father, like son…

Yeah, "who cares?" Meredith's lustful face when she said that about Don was hilarious…

Agree that Nick is the Buffy, and IMO Renard seems to be slowly morphing into a Giles figure (note that he and Nick seemed actually concerned for each other's welfare in this ep). 100% agree that Rosalee is straight-up Willow, but I really do think that Monroe is Xander (he *does* have complicated feelings about his

The super-hearing isn't really a zombie thing, though — Nick got it in season 2 when he was blinded by the parasites. Agree on Trubel's probable role, though.

Nick had that same crazy gleam in his eye that he had when he tried to explain the Grimm stuff to Juliette in Season 1. Not surprised Theresa gave him the side-eye when he tried to get her to go in.

Apparently Grimm's showrunners have a LOT of confidence that their show will be continually picked up by NBC. Having seen the Parks & Rec season finale that wrapped up every extant storyline (without knowing if they were renewed), I wonder why Grimm feels confident enough to let so many crucial plot elements go

That's a really good point! The Royals both disdain Wesen and keep them in check — like Kelly. Why *would* Kelly align with a Wesen Resistance?

100% agree on a Grimm mentor for Nick that could train him. HOWEVER, I am not in favor of Theresa being the new Faith for an extended period of time. Grimms are supposed to be rare and special creatures. Let's find out all of *Nick's* abilities before we start introducing younger versions into regular rotation!

Interesting that he was the only Grimmster she didn't go to for help. Given that even *Juliette* was mildly sympathetic to her, she could have asked Hank to help her convince Nick to rescue Diana…

Totally agree. If anything, the problem is that Nick doesn't use his powers ENOUGH. Now they might be taken away? No thanks…

I'm sorry, but I still can't retcon Adalind into a sympathetic figure. She has done HORRIBLE things to almost every Grimmster. She wasn't even close with her mom, who, as I recall, flat-out disowned her when she lost her powers. Yes, she seems to now truly care about Diana (who she originally SOLD to get her powers

I also wondered if Theresa was related to Nick, given that they're both from New York (Nick is from Rhinebeck). Plus they have a similar look and affect — and I loved when she tried to punch Nick in the back of the cruiser and his Grimm-y reflexes kicked in right away.
