Grimm: The Bottle Imp

"It's our daughter...!"

Ok, one more blog post until I get married...

Another Grimm fairy tale, this: The Spirit in the Bottle. It's also one with (spoiler alert!) a massive if predictable twist in that it's the little girl, not the father, who's the killer. There's also a lot of arc stuff going on.

We begin with a dream sequence which makes it clear that Juliette isn't going to get her memories back for a long time. There's comic relief with Monroe, still the beating heart of this show, making a total hash of minding Rosalie's shop. The title sequence continues to be utter cack. Thomas Paine's The Rights of Man, unexpectedly, gets namechecked. A grandfather clock is chainsawed. But, more importantly, Claire Coffee is back, briefly, as Adalind. And she seems to have a lot to do with this very intriguing mutual attraction between Juliette and Renard...

Also intriguing is Hank's first time in Nick's trailer; he's getting deeper into the world if the Wesen. And he now knows that it was Monroe who fired that shot. By the laws of television drama, there must be consequences...
