In order to be in the Grimm cast you should ideally have a weird name or be freakishly tall. Preferably both.

Claire Coffee sounds like a character in a JK Rowling Potterverse novel.

Hannibal Stewart. Martha Lector?

I really hope they don't go that route, because Magical Children are one of my least favorite sci-fi tropes.

Well, she said that some of her secrets are bad ones, and they are. I don't think that necessarily means Mrs S can't be trusted. After all, from Kira's point of view, Mrs S being capable of shooting people and stabbing knives through their hands and being a revolutionary freedom fighter, smuggling people etc would all…

The two men she killed in the very beginning, who were overpowering her and dragging her off the road. They don't outright say 'we're going to rape you', but it was pretty clear to me that was what was going down, and they make a point of mentioning that one of the guys has already been in jail for rape.

I thought of it as a reminder that Sarah isn't the most emotionally mature person. She did after all leave Kira in the first place to go get high and have a scummy boyfriend. She's done a lot of things, but she still doesn't seem to have adult decision making capabilities when it comes to feelings. Defaulting to…

That play continues to be the best thing ever. I am in awe that it is a real thing, that existed before this show. I will never not love Alison on stage, or Alison drinking till she gets ideas.

I haven't written any fanfiction! I have nothing against it but I never felt I had anything to add, either. That paragraph did come out a little too easily, though. Maybe I have an untapped literary connection with Sam's hair I never realized before.

That would be a lot more interesting to me than Adalind's baby. A LOT MORE. I'm still curious why Nick's mom works with the resistance even though she seems to hate wesen so much.

But a super capable Grimm could help Nick power up. If needed, they could always be called off to some place else like Nick mom's or die in a heroic sacrifice or something if they want to make Nick the big ass kicker again. Though frankly, I'm not sure the show really needs him to be. It works well as an ensemble.…

Yeah, Nick can't even explain to us (the audience) what being a Grimm means. At a certain point the writers need to figure this stuff out and find a way to make it known in show. It makes Nick look dumber and dumber when he doesn't ask a basic question for three years. They have dinner parties but he still can't ask…

Yeah, no shit. I mean, she's been recently sexually assaulted and then two guys she doesn't know who don't seem to be doing legit police stuff despite being police cuff her and drive her out to a deserted area and want her to go into a trailer for unexplained reasons. If I was her I'd be freaking out too.

That's true. Maybe the women were at home guarding the royals and having children? Maybe the show will never explain and we will keep having all historical Grimms be male and every contemporary Grimm Nick meets be a woman. Just to mess with the fans.

Yeah I'm waaaaay more interested in that than Adalind's super baby. It still seems kind of ridiculous and forced that the baby is this powerful and I generally hate Magical Special Child storylines because they're usually super ridiculous so…yeah.

That would be a great show!

He'd look better with long hair tied back than some of the crazy shit he's had, but it does get ridiculous to have him dressing up like a fed with his long hair.

Huh, I never thought about Grimm genders before! I do remember Nick's mom saying that the girls developed powers earlier, and in her family her male siblings aren't Grimms. But she never said one way or another if there was a gender ratio, but Aunt Marie did make it sound like she was hoping/expecting Nick would not…

I liked having another Grimm introduced, but I agree that right now it seems like a pretty bad move to have an even LESS experienced Grimm coming in. What I would have liked to see a lot more was a MORE experienced Grimm come in to be the Giles so that we could finally get some more of the world explained to us and…

I thought it said her last name was Rubel, which makes Trubel like JLo, since she's Theresa Rubel. Anyway, it was my least favorite part of the episode. Both the line and the reading.
