Great review! And I agree with everything you said. IMO, this was the best episode since mid season 4. I'm even
happy with Eve/Juliette who says she would not hurt Nick. She's well programmed to kill only BC. Looked like she
was levitating at the beginning. Thought witches could only fly on broomsticks haha. I need to watch this again.
Missed part about the fake keys.
Hope Map of the Seven Knights is the beginning of saving Grimm for another season.

Hi, Panther19, thanks and it's good we agree on the episode; I enjoyed it very much. Things are gonna get dicey from here on out.
I will be sorely disappointed if we don't get a renewal for a 6th season, fingers crossed.
I usually have to watch these episodes twice also, miss so much if I don't, so I'm with you, it's another go-round of this one, too!

Its a little casual for a quasi government agency with SHIELD-level operations, its not like they're a ragtag band of resistance fighters. Its not historically accurate. And the initials HW are particularly awkward to spell out, so it doesn't even abbreviate well.
I kinda like the name because Hadrian's Wall may have marked the northernmost limit of the Roman Empire and one main theory about its construction was that it was built to separate the civilized or intact world from the barbarians of the day. So because the government is prone to giving top secret projects names that are commensurate with it's type of mission, it sort of fits.
Thanks for identifying the Anubis as being the wesen after the trunk in this episode. I tried looking it up and there used to be a site for strictly showing the various wesen and their descriptions, but couldn't find it. But I remember something about them protecting ancient (they're Egyptian funereal gods, right?) relics, artifacts, etc. from the past. So it suits that they were the ones going after the contents of the trunk.
