Grimm: Breakfast in Bed

February 11, 2017 5:53 AM - Season 6, Episode 6

A mysterious Wesen turns sleepless nights into pure insanity...

...The investigation begins when Nick, Hank, and Wu are called to a local hotel where a grisly murder has taken place, which leads them to a guest who claims to be haunted by a frightening creature. Meanwhile, at the Spice Shop, Monroe, Rosalee, and Eve continue to research the origins of the symbols on the cloth; and Capt. Renard finds it difficult to escape his past transgressions.

"Sleep is good, death is better; but of course, the best thing would to have never been born at all."--Heinrich Heine

I was so puzzled by that last voge by the fish-wesen, trying to remember if we'd seen one of them before and what the significance was, until I read the AV Club recap. A red herring, figuratively and literally? That's some dad-joke level punning.

Ouch, that pun was so bad it hurt. I hope this isn't the end of Meisner, but if so I like the idea of him pushing Renard down the right path and moving on. Maybe Diana will being him back one more time.

I guess that's the benefit of knowing your last episode, you can foreshadow tidings a bit ahead.

It was slightly jarring seeing William Russ here as a gruff hotel manager right after just seeing him in Colony for half a minute as a calculating agent (no spoilers, don't worry).

But with all the dad jokes, it's only appropriate for Cory's dad to be in this episode.

Turns out that the lone symbol they couldn't find a reasonable place for in that map/star chart is the Hopi word for "CANCELLED."

I loved the Red Herring but then again, I like most dad jokes.

Hey, fellow Grimmsters - I'm going on a little vacation tomorrow to Wednesday, so, anyone who wants to post the episode 7 thread tomorrow night should feel free.
