GRIMM returns tonight after a four week hiatus with a new episode called, “Red Menace.” On tonight’s show Captain Renard (Sasha Roiz) finally tracks down Adalind (Claire Coffee) and has a stern warning for her. If you missed the last episode before the hiatus, don’t you worry your little Wesen heart, because we recapped the show for you RIGHT HERE.
On last week’s episode, as a deadly crime spree began to surface, a century-old urban legend took shape in Portland’s sewers and became Nick’s latest case. In Europe, Adalind met Prince Viktor, who came to bring those responsible for his cousin Eric’s demise to justice. Meanwhile, Captain Renard responded to the recent attempt on his life. After a string of delinquent teens went missing, an old Wesen tale of an evil Santa who brought more than just a lump of coal could have been the prime suspect. The investigation intensified as Nick and Hank took things a little too far. Meanwhile, Monroe enlisted Juliet to surprise Rosalee for their first Christmas together with unintended results. Elsewhere, Captain Renard’s tour of Europe brought him closer to tracking down Adalind.
On tonight’s show Nick (David Giuntoli) and Hank (Russell Hornsby) investigate a Wesen “healer” whose ability holds risks that far outweigh its rewards. Meanwhile, Juliette (Bitsie Tulloch) takes in a friend when domestic issues escalate and Hank makes a move on his physical therapist Zuri (guest star Sharon Leal). Elsewhere, Captain Renard (Sasha Roiz) finally tracks down Adalind (Claire Coffee) and has a stern warning for her. Silas Weir Mitchell, Bree Turner and Reggie Lee also star.
Don’t forget to come back here tonight at 9 PM EST for our live recap. In the meantime, hit up the comments section below and let us know what you’re most looking forward to in tonight’s episode.
