Top 5 Grimm Moments by Season

Season 2, #5: Catherine Schade vs. Kelly Burkhardt in 2×02, “The Kiss”

Catherine and Kelly actually had a lot in common. They were both fierce, talented women who found a way to survive in a harsh, cutthroat world. They were both mothers who weren’t always there for their children (although arguably for very different reasons).

I love every second of this scene. Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio and Jessica Tuck acted the hell out of it; you can feel the tension between these two and the unspoken threat in the air from the moment Kelly enters the room. And once they start fighting, it is on.

We finally get to see Kelly’s fighting skills showcased in a scene that isn’t super brief or darkly-lit, and against an opponent that might actually be her match to boot. In fact, as Kelly herself later acknowledged, if it hadn’t been for Catherine’s unlucky fall into that shard of broken mirror, the outcome of this confrontation might have been quite different.

I think the opening dialogue bothered me so much because Grimms aren’t like slayers. The opening claims that Nick is the only person who can see these things and do these things, but that isn’t true. There are multiple Grimms, all across the world. It’s not like slayers where there is only one and a new one gets called when the current one dies.
