User blog:Gcheung28/Season One Recap

A lot of things happened in Grimm's first season! If you are looking to get into the series, you've come just in time for Season 2! Continue reading for enough information to get you ready for the first episode (premiering August 13).

In this show, our main character Detective Nick Burkhardt learns from his Aunt Marie Kessler that he is descended from a line of guardians called Grimms. These guardians are supposed to keep the balance between humanity and mythological creatures called "Wesen" (pronounced "Vessin"). In each episode (some based off Brothers Grimm tales and others based off fables and legends) he battles an assortment of dangerous creatures with help from his friend Monroe, a reformed creature, and his partner Detective Hank Griffin (who has no idea Nick is a Grimm and is descending deeper and deeper into paranoia after he starts seeing the creatures himself).

As Nick continues his fight against various creatures with help from his friends, word of his existence as a Grimm spreads through the creature community. Creatures keep coming in attempts to kill Nick and his aunt and, at one point, a hag named Adalind Schade tries to kill Marie in the hospital. It turns out that she is connected to Captain Renard, but for this season he remains a mysterious figure we do not know a lot about! Nick also has a girlfriend named Juliette Silverton who he was going to propose to, but, after finding out his heritage, he decides against it. In the later episodes, Juliette gets involved in Adalind's plans to harm Nick, and he is forced to confess to her about his secret life as a Grimm. After Monroe transforms to show her the truth, she passes out, but it is because Adalind's cat had scratched her.

In Season One's final episode, Nick fights the mysterious Akira Kimura who had come to look for the gold cursed coins. When the woman in black appears to kill Kimura, Nick is shocked to recognize her as his supposedly dead mother, Kelly Burkhardt!
