Here is my drama recap of episode 3
"Oh Captain, My Captain".
Renard is a free man now. Nick is
still a fugitive. Adalind goes back to Renard's place with her children. Hank
and Wu hand in their resignation letters. Trubel returns to HW. And, the rest
of the Team Grimm members are lying low.
But Team Grimm is not defeated. To stop
Renard from being the mayor, Nick will transform himself into Renard with the
same witch hat which made Adalind change into Juliette. To perform this Hexenbiests
spell - Verfluchte Zwillingsschwester (cursed twin sister), they need Renard's
hair.
Meanwhile at the police precinct,
Renard's other campaign manager, Jeremiah, blackmails him. If Renard doesn't
give him money, he'll tell the police he saw Renard leave Rachel Wood’s apartment
the night she was killed.
Nick calls Adalind and she volunteers
to get Renard's hair for Team Grimm. Monroe is worried about his pregnant wife Rosalee
has to handle ingredients for the spell. But, Monroe, you better worry about
yourself first. You have to go to Renard's place to get his hair from Adalind.
Back at the precinct, Renard appoints
police officer Grossante to be the next police chief. To show his loyalty, he goes
to Jeremiah's place with Renard. Grossante woges, kills Jeremiah and spatters some
of Jeremiah's blood on Renard’s shirt. Grossante, I don't think you're smart
enough to be the successor of Renard.
Monroe is at Renard's place to get
Renard's hair and wardrobe for Nick. He doesn't know which tie he should pick,
so, he picks 1 red one and 1 blue one. But Renard goes back home to get change
before he leaves.
So, Monroe hides inside the closet
and Adalind tries her best to stop Renard going near it. Finally, she
tells Renard he has blood on his hair and he should take a shower. Now, Monroe
is safe to leave.
In the spice shop, Nick is ready to
transform to Renard. Since Renard is bigger than Nick, Eve instructs Nick to
take off his clothes before he breaths in the green smoke. At first, nothing
happens to Nick. Then, he drops to the floor and transforms to Renard
painfully. One problem, though. Nick changes to a woged Renard! Nick, you can't
walk around woged!!
Monroe can't help Nick to unwoge. So
Rosalee gently guides Nick back to a normal looking Renard. But he doesn't act
like Renard at all. When you look like Renard, you have to talk like him and move like
him, Nick. With some practicing, now Nick transforms to Renard. They
test Hank to see if he knows the person he talks to is Renard or not. Fake
Renard (Nick) snaps at Hank and asks for his resignation letter. Hank yells
back at him and tells him he already handed it in. Yes! Nick you're now
officially becomes Renard.
At Renard's place, Adalind has to keep
the real Renard at home to watch the 7 p.m. news. She talks about Diana with
Renard. I think it's really funny and sad at the same time when Renard asks if
Diana killed another person. But I don't think Adalind will find this funny.
She talks about Diana's unique characteristic and she may have unique
educational needs. Can they just send her to the school for royals? The teacher
there must be all Wesens. They should know what to do with Diana, right?
Fake Renard is live on 7 p.m. news,
he says he will resign as mayor and go back to be the Captain. He also praises Nick
Burkhardt for doing an outstanding undercover job. Good for you Nick praising
yourself live on TV. Between a red tie and a blue tie, why did you choose a
blue one, Nick? Do you know the real Renard picked a red one?
While watching the fake Renard on TV together,
Adalind asks Renard innocently when he recorded this TV announcement. Renard is
angry and threatens Adalind if she is part of the same plot. If Adalind
is in danger, what will Diana do? Will she protect her mother Adalind from
being hurt by her father Renard?
Back at the precinct, Grossante
confronts fake Renard. He killed a person for Renard but now his promotion is
gone. Fake Renard mentions about the blood on his shirt and tells him the deal
is off. After Grossante storms out, Nick starts to feel his painful reverse transformation.
But he remains being the fake Renard. When he tries to leave, he is surrounded
by the media. He praises the good job Hank and Wu do. Way to go, Nick!
The real Renard shows up and Wu stops
him from going inside the police precinct. As fake Renard drives away, the reporters
surround the real Renard. He insists he won't step down as mayor. The reporters
are puzzled. Then, one of the reporters points out the real Renard is wearing a
red tie instead of a blue one. Good observation!
Hank, and Wu take real Renard's
laptop and files and return to the spice shop with fake Renard. Eve worries
that the spell may work differently on Nick as a Grimm. They worry Nick will
become Renard forever. It would be very awkward to have two Renards.
Real Renard calls. He agrees to meet
fake Renard at Nick's place. While Renard is not home, Hank and Wu take Adalind
and her children to the spice shop.
Both Renards fight each other at
Nick's rooftop. Well, they are basically the same person, so, either one can
win. To end this everlasting fight, they both agree to blame the dead Bonaparte for every
murder case happened during season 5. To investigate the cases, real Renard
will be the Captain again. He also agrees to give Nick, Hank and Wu's job back.
Nick is free to take Adalind and Kelly with him but Renard won't let go of
Diana. Will Adalind like this agreement?
My friends and I can't agree with one
thing, though. "If I shoot you, is that considered suicide?" Did real
Renard say this or fake Renard say this on the rooftop before they started
fighting? I think fake Renard / Nick said that but many of my friends think the
real Renard did. What do you think?
Team Grimm doesn't have any luck to
find a way to make fake Renard transform back to Nick. When they see Renard
appears in front of them, they have no idea if this Renard is Nick or not. So they
ask something only Nick will know. Adalind asks if he knows where they first
kissed. Fake Renard / Nick side-eyes his former girlfriend Juliette / Eve and answers
at the table in his place - the loft. I don't know how Eve feels but I don't
feel comfortable about how close Nick and Adalind are.
Then, Nick heard the bad news. They
can't find a way to transform him back. Diana comes to greet her daddy but she realizes
her daddy is not Renard. She pushes fake Renard and Nick is back his normal
self. Thank you Diana power! Beware of the Diana power, Adalind and Nick. She
has a complicated look on her face when she sees you two hug each other.
Real Renard is home alone. Does he hallucinate
again? Is there really a man in his house waiting for him? "I tried to
tell you ... you chose the wrong side, Sean." says Martin Meisner who's a
member of the Resistance and Hadrian's Wall (HW).
The fourth episode of season 6 "El
Cuegle" will be on CTV / NBC on January 27, 2017. Will I be able to watch
it at 8pm Eastern with my mum?
By the way, what does "El Cuegle"
mean?
According to Wikipedia, "El
Cuegle" is a monster in Cantabrian folklore. It is small but strong. It
has black skin, long beard, grey hair, pointed ears, two legs, three arms, three
eyes and five rows of teeth.
So we're back to Grimm fighting
monsters now? Then, why do we see Martin Meisner? Isn't he supposed to be dead? Maybe
we'll see Nick's mother even
though she's supposed to be dead too. She will come to control Diana from using her power to harm Team Grimm, perhaps.
