This episode wasn't really about solving the case (which surprised me-- this may be the first time Grimm has done this!); rather, it was about developing our relationship with Rosalee and learning about the ways of the Hexenbiest. It made for an interesting episode, that's for sure. But I hope they don't do this style too often-- I don't think they could get away with doing it very often and still come out smelling like a rose.

I fully enjoyed this episode! I agree-- VERY glad they brought Adalind back, and also that they got Wu involved.

As a sidenote, I observed I was correct in my prediction that Renard would try to get Hank out of the way as a means to weaken Nick. With Hank down, Nick will be exposed when on the job-- but Monroe looks like he might be starting to like helping out with criminal investigations.
