Reminder that Nick wanted to tell Juliette in EPISODE TEN. He wanted to but Monroe convinced him it might literally break her brain.

Like I know I in particular give Nick a lot of shit about how he treats Juliette, but his tendencies toward self-isolation and emotional repression were absolutely enabled here.

Hank is truly such an underrated, underappreciated character. Every single thing he says is so interesting! He knows he’s hot shit but also is bashful when pretty women hit on him. He’s so so brave but terrified of rats. He’s been divorced four times but knows all these random facts because he got interested in his ex wives’ hobbies and jobs and listened to them, like REALLY listened enough to absorb information and recall it years later. He waxes philosophical about a junkyard. He’s loyal to a fault. He’s a protector. He’s so so SO observant and smart. And the show really builds him up as Nick’s partner in the human world equal to how Monroe is Nick’s partner in the Grimm world with such intention. He’s so important! And Russell Hornsby plays him so well.
