I hope not...but yeah, that could happen. This season ended with a huge mess...with lots of bodies to have to explain. And most of the bodies are connected to Nick in some way - his neighbors, his mother, his girlfriend. It might appeal to Nick to join up with Trubel and Chavez. But I'm not sure how the show runners would do this, since they have based the show in Portland and invested a lot in sets there.

Old Porter was only giving his stuff to Nick because Josh wasn't a Grimm. Nick gave Trubel a machete and books. To Chavez that's a pretty good indication that Nick isn't a Grimm.

"Grimms don't share"...? I dunno about that, they write down their experiences in diaries and share them with other Grimms. Rolek Porter drove across the country to give his stuff to Nick...because Nick was a Grimm. I've wondered how he knew about Nick, by the way. Nick shared his books and his knowledge with Trubel...because she was a Grimm. She didn't take any books with her, I don't think, because we later saw Wu looking through the same books. So I'm wondering how Trubel would have explained to Chavez about 'Why Nick would have those books', if Chavez pressed her later about it. When Trubel got the call from Monrosalee to come back and 'Help Nick'...we don't know how much they told her. Trubel may have wanted Chavez to come with her to help, and felt it was necessary to tell her that Nick was a Grimm.

That makes it certain she is not based in Portland and reasonably certain she's not based west of the Rockies. She's got to be based close to Washington DC, but not in it. That is a good point...that Chavez would have probably known that Nick was 'The Grimm', if she were based in Portland. It's not a big secret there, within the Wesen population. Great point, actually. And this also supports the theory that Chavez was already in Portland to locate 'The Grimm', and that's why she was able to be at Nick's house so quickly to investigate the death of Weston Steward.

Yeah, we've seen Wesen in all walks of life so far...some of them quite wealthy, like the guy who killed his wife in One Angry Fuchsbau. And that old boyfriend of Rosalee, who was in the Resistance, said that the Verrat had infiltrated all levels of society, businesses and government. There is a lot of material there for future stories.

Not just the Verrat, but a special division of the Verrat who are looking for the Keys. They don't seem to give up. Like I mentioned above...maybe Josh saw that it was in his best interest to join up with Chavez? Just speculating, of course, but I could see how that might happen.

82.21.236.214 also wrote: I see the wesen having an oral tradition. The group Chavez is part of may have written records but the legacy of the royals, verrat and wesenrein may still make any wesen reluctant to write down any information.

Yes, as much as Monroe & Rosalee seem to know...we've never seen them having books about the different kinds of Wesen. That's why I thought it was curious that the show runners would show us Trubel going through the Trailer, as the first thing she did when came back.
