Juliette got turned into a Hexenbiest! That's going to be fun. Drinking a Grimm's blood can take away a Hexenbiest's power, but the various spells that have been cast probably mean this is going to stick around for awhile.

The SNOW have members in the Portland PD! Fictional police are fictional racists, I guess.

Poor Wu, they really should have told him earlier. Props on figuring out that Nick got assigned all the Wesen cases, though.

Good call on Juliette, Small Dollar. I hope the it's permanent, that's going to make things interesting.

Poor Wu.

I hope the change is permanent, that is

Now that Wu knows wesen are real, he might figure out that his friend's husband is an Aswang. That could get ugly.

I was so stoked at the ending with Juliette. I'm so glad they made her character better. I remember seeing all the comments on Hulu in the earlier seasons just wishing she would die. She was so one dimensional but I like where she's at now.

I also just really want them to go on their dang honeymoon. They're so cute and I just want them to be happy! (Although those mask dudes are super scary and it's an interesting storyline.)

Loved this episode, so much plot happening. Too bad Juliette got stuck with such an ugly-looking wesen, seeing herself in Nick's Grimm vision is going to suck for her. Really glad that Monroe got taken by the SNOW instead of Rosalee - though as I want them to get their honeymoon & happy-ever-after, if one of them has to be kidnapped, menaced, & rescued first, I'd rather it's him.

Saw a promo during "The Librarians" that TNT will start running the series in syndication on January 7th, so looks like I'll be doing a series re-watch. I'll finally get to see Rosalee's introductory episode, and maybe pay more attention to show mythology setup and learn something about the Royals.

Minor quibble, but I think even though we only saw Monroe get clonked over the head, that was the last shot, so it doesn't mean the SNOW crew didn't grab Rosalee right after.

I bet they both got grabbed, and we get at least a couple of weeks worth of everyone just assuming that they haven't been heard from because "honeymoon."

The fact that Wu's now gotten the truth and apparently can't really mentally handle it is . . . . . interesting. I've got no idea where they're going to go with his character.

Dagnabit, I just remembered that the next episodes of Grimm and Constantine aren't on until January 9th. Humbug.
