It was definitely, as Liz said during the liveblog, one of the weirder ones, even for Grimm. And I’m pretty sure it was kind of a short break and some comic relief for us before shit gets real.
I mean, we had 6 episodes dealing with the fallout of last season’s finale, furthering the questions about the stick, and setting up some new mysteries. We have six more episodes left in the season, at least four of which have deeply concerning titles.
And then we had this episode smack in the middle that seemed like mostly filler but served–if you read between the lines–to air out and address a lot of things that hadn’t been fully dealt with yet, as well as really cement the bond between the members of Team Grimm.
Judging from that and the promo for next episode…things are about to get serious and dark. We’re in the downward slide now. I have a feeling this episode was, despite its weirdness, the brief calm before the storm.
