Oh, but what was Graydon doing? He was killing Blutbaden. It's great Nick didn't actually decide justice was more important than Monroe, but I can't help but feel that was different because it was a feud between Wesen; it was Wesen exploding left and right, not humans.

What else could have made him decide not to barge into the restaurant and hold Graydon at Doppelarmbrust point for a confession? He's never been above exerting his Grimm reputation to those that fear him, especially those at the bottom of the food chain. Just my interpretion, though. ^^

Nick handled Elly's case relatively well, I think; reminded me of Holly. Even if he was ready to let her sisters shrivel in a holding cell if needed, he did do his best to prevent that. He may have done it to save them, or he may have done it because, like his ancestor found out, dead Naiads can't give answers. But regardless, he dove in without care for himself - if not for the pale-face-superpower he probably would have run out of air. Kudos to Nicky on that case.

I'm not sure what you mean but other criminals, but his first kill ever was Hulda, Aunt Marie's Reaper from Pilot. He didn't receive counselling then.

Given his reaction to Sean's "fact you killed someone who wasn't Wesen " speech, and his indifference to having tried to kill Monroe/Sean/Hank, I think Nick's issue with the murder was more than that. Could you imagine a scenario where he had been surprise-attacked by let's say, a Hollentier, and shot it in panic? Do you think he'd be as torn up?

P.S. Please don't feel like I'm purposefully shutting you down, and I'd be very glad if you continued this debate. I just get really wordy when I analyze fictional characters. ^^
