Ah Grimm, killing wesen and butchering languages left and right.

I was hoping that Nick would go full decapitare and decapitate Zerstorer. Oh well.

I was so disturbed by Diana's nonchalance at her parents' murder. Totally agree that the writers wrote it as her being under a spell, but since that was never spelled out for us, she just came across as an opportunistic and amoral creep. And I wonder how Diana experienced the reset. Nick flew through the mirror, but…

So over the last 3-4 seasons, we've heard so much about how Diana was the "destined one" and what a significant figure (good or bad) she could be in the future. But with the way the story line is framed, it seems like Diana is significant mainly because she's been chosen to be the devil's child-bride. I'm a bit…

I'm disappointed that they did not explore Kelly's potential powers in an episode entitled "The Son Also Rises"

I think the bigger repercussions may yet be coming, since Lt. Grossante now knows that Renard was the one who stabbed Bonaparte in the back.

I wish the lady were a praying mantis wesen instead

Eve having hexen-tile dysfunction and going into the whole pure soul storyline was my least favorite part of this episode. Why are the writers on this show so obsessed with keeping Juliette/Eve a "good" character? Personally, I find Evil Juliette to be the most compelling. I wish they stuck with her being dead or not…

Speaking of wigs, Eve was sans wig when Nick showed up at the HW control room and asked for Trubel and Eve to help him save Hank. Next shot, Eve was lurking around in the dark woods all platinum-haired. So I gather we had this dialogue offscreen—Trubel: "Hey wait a sec, I need to grab my machete." Eve:"I'll grab my…

The almost-romance was the first thought that came to my mind when blood started seeping out of Meisner's eyeballs. "But….but he was daydreaming about Adalind!" Then I remembered that I was watching grimm and the breadcrumbs they drop don't necessarily mean anything. Meisner-Adalind-Nick is infinitely more compelling…

So they killed Meisner and they brought back Juliette? JULIETTE? The most annoying character ever? Bitsie has to emote next season? I can't. I just can't.

Indeed. How does Eve know about the tunnel? And why do Nick and Adalind even bother with the fome anymore when everyone and their mom know where they live and especially when Eve can just saunter in whenever she pleases?

So, BC plans to parade Diana, Renard and Adalind around as a family to get him elected? How are they going to explain Diana's speedy growth rate? I'm thinking people might be confused when the tween becomes twenty in three months' time.

Re: the love triangle—I think I read some interview where Bitsie insisted that Eve was
laser-focused on her mission and that she only views Nick as an asset to
protect in HW. So I'm hopeful that we won't be sliding back into Juliette/Nick territory. The Nick/Adalind relationship already has enough drama…

I am bothered by Eve's "Do you remember when Adalind became ME and I became Adalind?" Up till now, Eve has always made it clear that she was no longer Juliette. When she had her one-on-one conversation with Trubel a few episodes back, she referred to Juliette in third person. Now she uses "I" and "me"? Is she slipping…

Why does Eve have the witch's hat? I thought we last saw it at the spice shop in "You don't know Jack"? Or is this a random hat? I remember Renard's mom once mentioning how rare Adalind's hat was, so I am assuming that it is the same one.

Seriously. Why would one wear a loud platinum blonde hooker wig to sneak into someone's house? Because clearly it won't attract any attention…

"A lot of these quibbles are also amplified by the fact that the
transition of “Silence Of The Slams” from one story format to another is
largely inelegant in its process."

So happy that they are getting back to the keys and the old-world charm of the show. It's the forest scenery, tattered leather books, fairy-tale folklore that make this show unique, and the feel of this episode was spot on. I don't care for the H.W. line at all, cheesy la femme Nikita Eve and all—it just feels so out…

This story line is just getting way over its head. Nick is now an inconsequential character, outshone by everyone else around him. Also, Silas Weir Mitchell and Bree Turner are great actors who are underused, now they have to cede more airtime to this "Eve" character, who sounds super cheesy to me.
