A GRIMM prediction...


The new season of GRIMM, Fridays on NBC, is into its second week and is still largely stitching up...


story lines from last season, but also setting up new interesting one for this season. Thank goodness, but also irrigating-ly, lots of questions are still unresolved- keys, coins, Royals in Europe with great concern for what is happening in Portland and are we going to see Nick's bad ass mother again, who is played by Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio...


Kevin Costner's Maid Marian in ROBIN HOOD:PRINCE OF THEIVES back in 1991...


Back to GRIMM, I've watched the two first episodes several times,  peering into my crystal ball and making my own prediction of where this "modern fairytale is going.

The "real" Nick, played by  David Giuntoli, is still in Portland, saved by the gang...
 
 
thwarting  the Royals attempt to "bag" their own Grimm, but can the "Town Crier" actually proclaim, "All is Well..."?

It seems, with how many times all action on the screen stopped to make sure we, the viewer,  heard ...
"The Zombie infection works differently on a Grimm"
 
And it did,  wearing off too soon in the plane, to the demise of the Baron and Nick needing two doses of the antidote.

I think we have not seen the last Zombie in Portland. Nick's altered state  might  be the running theme for this first part of the season, like Juliette being poisoned in Season 2.

Now the questions is, if Nick is not entirely cured of being a "walking dead," what does that mean?

Thinking about it, seem to me, it could go two ways. Nick, like Peter Parker, bitten by a spider...

 
might have added abilities, like him being able to  hear from a far, after the "whole bugs in his eyes" episode, yuck!


But not sure how many actual zombie characteristics will prove to be beneficial,  unless he needs to travel  the distance of the sea bed and breathing is inconvenient, like the sentient zombies...

in Disney's PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN
 
It seems more likely for Nick...


having a certain amount of zombie organism, alive and well inside him, will prove to be somewhat of a hindrance...
Perhaps a Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde sort of hindrance?
 
Because in an episodic series there always has to be something keeping those who love each other apart...


Believe me if I am right, I will declare it from the rafters.....if I am wrong, I probably won't mention it again, that's how I roll!
