Must have missed something about having the youngsters and their dads hunt down a rabbit and eat it and Monroe's lecture about the importance of resisting the urge to hunt. It wasn't one of my favorite wesen of the week stories, just okay.
Wave goodbye to the trailer, and there goes the chance to see what was in that Grimm diary page hidden in the chest (I had always figured it was critical to understanding the mystery of the much sought after object) and the Coins of Zakynthos, although I guess they could be salvaged. All the Grimm diaries and wesen lore accumulated over the generations, which the gang depended on in their research, all gone up in smoke. Maybe Wu checked out some important tomes to study at home. To say nothing of the precious bottles and vials of mixtures, some of them probably irreplaceable, to stop otherwise almost undefeatable bad wesen. Kinda breathtaking. Seems like there should be a good reason for this catastrophe and maybe there is, maybe she got the idea from Kenneth in order to cut off an important means of fighting back against the treacherous scheming of the families, for instance. Because it has been said that the Royals are promoting social disorder and chaos wherever they can to make people trade their liberty for security; connects with Renard's statement about wesen-related criminal activity. I'm beginning to see a conspiracy theory behind every flower pot, I know.
Is Elizabeth working for the Royals? Oh, probably not, but she is at the center of most of the devastation that is befalling Portland's little pocket of resistance against their ruthless drive to subjugate the world's populations. I don't think she wants to see her son suffer, though, so that doesn't fit. This thing with Renard's got me wringing my hand with worry - where's the reset button.
If the writers meant to shock and awe, they got the job done as far as I am concerned. When worlds collide. And we have three more episode to go.
I believe that's why trubel returns next week . She does have a copy of the books that perished in the fire. Remember she was reading one , when Wu saw it in her bed room???, but with the rest the weapons the potions used all gone . Juliette is at the point of no return sadly
