**Definitely Spoiler Alert** (Although I'd assume anyone visiting the episode section had already watched the episode...)
I thought this was the best Grimm episode ever. It was sad to see that my sentiment wasn't shared here. :'(
The nature of this show is predictable. It's MOTW, the monster(s) will be defeat at the end and the good people (Nick) always win at the end. Which is what make this show great.
Why I love this episode:
* The father and son were not killed by the Verrat
* Trubel behaved rationally (might even be too rationally for a traumatized teenager) - she called Nick after the guy showed her the picture instead of your every day cocky teenager who think they can handle the situation themselves and just took off without a word
* Not being able to get hold of Nick, Trubel decided to go with Josh instead of letting him go off alone (then they'll for sure be killed by the Verrat and who know what would happen to the trunk and the key!)
* Trubel saw the trunk including the sword with blood and all and not even phased.
* Trubel called Nick again the first chance she got
* Trubel stayed with the car as instructed until Nick and Hank got there
* Nick honestly telling Trubel about Grimm history and the crusaders (one of the BEST feature of this show is they don't try to hide anything from anyone. Everybody who are in the loop are In. The. Loop. Maybe too much in the loop. I feel that in any other show, Monroe and Rosaly knowing about the key, and stashing them at their place, will only put them in danger)
* The fight scene, of course
* The last scene when Josh said "or maybe all of you are crazy" and everybody looked up was hella funny.
* Have I mentioned that father and son were not killed by the Verrat?
I really thought Josh would just say "thanks but no thanks" when Nick offer to clue him in on the whole thing. He seems the sort who'd just really want to turn over the page and move on with his life. Maybe it's also important for him to understand why his dad was so fixated on finding Nick instead of going to the hospital in his last days. For closure.
I would love for Trubel to stay on as a regular character, Josh is optional. Two Grimms are probably enough for the time being.
