Synopsis
This episode starts out where the previous one left off, with Monroe seeing Juliette and Sean Renard making out in the spice shop. Julliette sees that he sees, and flees. She calls Nick and says that they have to talk in person. Monroe then does the same.

Nick visits Monroe on the way home, and learns what happened. Monroe tries to defend Juliette saying that she might not have known what she was doing due to the spell. Nick leaves, clearly upset. He confronts Juliette and gives her a chance to explain rather than telling her that he knows. She admits to having feelings for someone else, but insists that nothing has happened yet.

Adalind Schade shows up at Hank's door. They talk briefly. She asks questions about her mother's death. He does not invite her inside. As soon as she leaves he goes to call Nick, but before he reaches the phone he is attacked by a couple of Hundjäger.

Nick hears that Hank has been savagely beaten, and goes to visit him in the hospital. There he learns of Adaline's visit. He tells this to Seargent Wu and Captain Renard, who agree that they should follow this lead as well as track her down for questioning about her mother's murder.

Adaline visits Renard, and says that she has seen his brother (all of him). She is now working with the Royals, and the Verrat. She gives Sean an ultamatum: find the key within one day, or she will tell Hank who he really is.

Nick calls Juliette, but she does not feel like talking and does not answer the phone. Adaline shows up at her door. They decide to catch up over cofee. While there she asks about Nick's aunt, and learns of her trailer containing all sorts of wierd things. Juliette does not know exactly where it is, but does reveal that it was taken to some storage yard.

Nick suspects that Adaline may be with Juliette, and so has his girlfriend's cell phone traced. They locate her in the coffee shop, and he calls while she and Adaline are still talking. Adaline tells her to go ahead and take it. Juliette seems offended when Nick asks who she is with, but eventually puts Adaline on the line.

The police show up and arrest Adeline as a suspect in her mother's death. Juliette feels offended like he used her like that, and insists that Adaline must be innocent because she was away in Europe at the time. Adaline talks with Sean as they put her in te police car, and implies that she got arrested on purpose because it is safer to be in jail where anything bad happening to her would be traced back to Renard.

When they interrogate her about her mother's murder she provides a strong alibi, and hints that Nick's alibi is much weaker. She feigns ignorance about wat happened to Hank. She reveals where her hotel room is, and that it is under her new company's name. At the ed, she strongly hits that everything would go better if Nick just surrendered the key.

Monroe visits Hank in the hopsital, and smells evidence of the Hundjager. He calls Nick and learns of the hotel room. He visits it, pretending to be looking for a friend who owes him money and claims to be staying there, and confirms the presence of four Hundjager. Nick comes to join him, armed. He overcomes the Hundjager, and almost gets the injured female to give up their boss before her associate kills her to keep her quiet. He has Monroe hind the evidence.

Renard talks to Adaline privately, and learns ot the trailer. He calls in a search for it.

Nick talks to her privately, and she promises to tell him the true identity of the royal for whom she was working when she tried to kill his aunt if he will just give her the key.

Nick enters Juliette's bedroom an says that he won't sleep on the couch anymore. He takes his things and goes to move in with Monroe. Monroe tells him that he recognized the man he saw Juliette kiss from TV, and then shows him a recording of Captain Renard giving a press confrerence.

The episode ends with Renard finding the trailer.
