(wich btw is kind of funny, because that term actually comes from german beer: only water, hops, malt and yeast should be used XD) I guess that's much the same way of thinking with Monroe's parents. No mixing and interbreeding allowed.

And their reaction to Nick... Monroe was very worried about his parents visiting and finding out about Nick. It might take a looong time, till that thing is gonna be settled >.<

My guess, his father leaves the house threatening Monroe to disinherit him if he marries a Fuchsbau and befriends a Grimm, but his Mother will calm the situation sooner or later. That's what mother's always do ;-)

Can't wait till friday to find out ^^ I've been thinking about the comics a lot, too. While there doesn't seem to be as huge an issue with intermarrying (although it seems to end badly more often than not), we've only seen one instance of interbreeding (when the Blutbad priest knocked up the Seelengut girl), and we never saw the end result. The Genio Innocuo/ Lowen doesn't count to me because he was a genetic experiment. I feel that there will be much, much more issue taken if Rosalee gets pregnant.

As for the family dynamics, the look on Alice's face when she realizes Rosalee is a Fuchsbau as she shoves her away; while Bart seems to be Archie Bunker the Blutbad, Alice doesn't strike me as Edith Bunker in the slightest.

And am I the only one who's kind of hoping Daddy Monroe goes all Diana Rabe/ Full Critter on Nick? I feel like that would be AWESOME.
