GRIMM: 5 Things to Know About the Season 5 Premiere
BY Jennifer Griffin
Published 9 years ago
Could Grimm have left fans with any more of a cliffhanger last season?
From the sudden and violent death of Nick's mother Kelly, to the also sudden and violent death of Bitsie Tulloch's Juliette -- a series regular from the very first episode -- last season's finale served up a series of shocks that kept fans talking over the long hiatus.
Is Juliette really dead? What revenge path is Nick on this season? And where will former nemesis Adalind and her new baby fit into Nick's life now, if at all?
The show returns in typically timely fashion on October 30 (just in time for Halloween) with "The Grimm Identity," an episode which will pick up on those dangling threads and pull the show in a new direction this year.
We've seen the first couple of episodes a little early, thanks to our friends at NBC, and have a series of teasers to share with you on what's to come.
If you’re a regular reader of these types of articles here at ScreenSpy, then you’ll know we do our best to avoid spoiling major developments and plot lines that might otherwise ruin your enjoyment of the episode (we want you to enjoy it as much as we did).
For that reason, we consider the following carefully structured and worded points to be teasers rather than outright spoilers.
However, as always, we urge you to be cautious, as one man’s teaser is another man’s spoiler.
Here then are 5 things you might like to know about Grimm's Season 5 premiere "The Grimm Identity."
Face the Hidden
Remember we mentioned that gang that will whisk Trubel away in the opening moments? They’re up to something big, and we honestly can’t say which side they’re on. It’s not because we don’t want to tell you, but because we really can’t tell at this point.
What we can tell you is that you’ll get a look at their secret base of operations and at their leader too, but perhaps the most intriguing aspect to this group is that locked door at the end of that long corridor.
Who – or what – is in there? Trubel? Juliette? Something altogether more monstrous and dangerous?
While Nick and the gang hit the books in an attempt to decrypt the meaning behind an ancient symbol, a Wesen in the know will taunt Nick with the knowledge that “Not even a Grimm can stop what’s coming,” and sooner or later Nick will have to “Face the Hidden.”
We’re definitely not ready to face what’s behind that door just yet.
