Synopsis

In the hospital, Captain Renard is quickly moved from a stretcher onto a table where doctors immediately start surgery on him after he was shot multiple times by Weston Steward. ("Blond Ambition")

In the car after leaving Monroe and Rosalee's wedding, Hank is on the phone getting updates on Captain Renard's status and lets Nick, Juliette, and Trubel that he is in surgery. Trubel tells everyone that Renard was shot three times and was going to be shot again, but that Weston Steward saw her. She tells them that he was a Hundjäger and that she had never seen him before. Nick asks if she knows what was in the bottle that Renard wanted him to take and she tells him no. As they pull up to Nick and Juliette's home, Trubel gets worried when she sees all the police cars, but Nick tells her they have to deal with it. Nick tells her she killed Weston in self-defense, so she should tell the police the truth.

Elsewhere in Portland, a man stands across the street from a house with his eyes closed as memories go through his head. After a minute, he opens his eyes and walks to the house. Inside the house, Henry Slocombe is on the phone. He hangs up when the man outside knocks. The man says his name is Lawrence Anderson and that he is a friend of Danny Rivera's. Henry says that Danny has always spoken highly of him. Lawrence then tells him that Danny has been in a terrible accident. Henry invites Lawrence in and asks what he's heard and how bad it is. Lawrence tells him it was some sort of severe head injury before he woges into an octopus-like Wesen. Lawrence grabs Henry with his hands as he uses four of his tentacles to go into the back of Henry's head as they fall to the ground.

Doctors continue operating on Renard as they pull the last bullet out of him.

Juliette asks Nick how Trubel is supposed to explain the machete and he tells Trubel to just tell the police that it's his and he keeps it in that room. Franco arrives to Trubel's room where Wu is sitting on the bed looking at the Grimm diaries. Franco tells him that Nick and Hank are there, so Wu and Franco go meet them outside the house. Wu recognizes Trubel and Juliette says that she has been staying with them. Nick tells Wu and Franco that she was the one who killed the shooter, which surprises them both. Nick tells them he tried to kill her after he shot Renard. Nick and Hank go inside with Wu and Franco to talk to Detectives Meacham and Pogue as they are handling the case.

Inside, Wu shows Nick and Hank where they found Renard and then he leads them to Weston's head at the bottom of the stairs. Wu then leads Nick and Hank upstairs and mentions the books he found in Trubel's room and Nick calmly tells him they are his and they have been handed down in his family for a long time. Meacham and Pogue are in Trubel's room when Nick and Hank go inside. The detectives ask them multiple questions including if they knew why Renard was there and if they knew Weston Steward or why he shot Renard. When they ask if they know who killed Weston, Nick tells them it was Trubel. The detectives say they want to talk to her, so they all head back outside. As Meacham and Pogue begin to ask Trubel questions, the FBI arrives to the scene.

Lawrence finishes his attack on Henry, He stands up while Henry is disoriented on the ground. Lawrence grabs his stuff and is about to leave when Henry's girlfriend, Alexandra walks in. She immediately runs over to Henry who asks who she is and she notices the blood on the back of his head. Lawrence then runs after her as she tries to grab her phone. Lawrence grabs a little statue and hits her over the head, killing her. Lawrence grabs her keys and drives off in her car.

Special Agent Chavez and Special Agent Rosten walk over to talk with Trubel after they finish talking with Meacham and Pogue. The FBI agents have Trubel come with them into the house to walk them through what happened. Trubel goes over step by step what happened from the time that Renard was shot until she cut off Weston's head with the machete. Wu listens outside the bedroom door as they agents tell Trubel they want her to come to the precinct to make a formal statement.

At Kronenberg Castle, Viktor is on the phone with someone telling them to rig an election. Rispoli walks in and informs Viktor that Weston shot Renard, so Viktor hangs up the phone. Rispoli tells Viktor that Weston was beheaded, but they don't know who did it, although it happened in Nick's house where the shooting took place. Rispoli then tells Viktor that Renard is not dead, but that he is in the hospital and that it's critical, but he hasn't been able to get much info. Viktor tells him that he'll have to inform the King and if he were to lose a second son "there would be hell to pay." Viktor then tells Rispoli that it's imperative that he ties Weston to Nick instead of them.

Lawrence drives to a river and throws the statue into the water. He then calls someone he works with to inform him of what happened and the man says he is coming.

Chavez looks around Trubel's room. She examines Trubel's chess piece before she discovers the Grimm diaries. She woges into a Steinadler as she looks through the book. Rosten comes into the room and asks if she's good with the body being taken away. She retracts and tells him yes. She then asks what he thinks about Trubel and Rosten says after what happened, if she was his daughter, she'd be a basket case and Chavez says she's not normal.

Juliette stands outside the front door as Weston's body is carried out in a body bag. A CSU Officer tells her they're done and apologizes that the house is a mess. Juliette goes inside and looks around at the blood and bullet holes. She goes into her room and finds the negligee that Adalind wore when she disguised herself as Juliette. There is a knock at the door and Juliette throws the negligee into the garbage on her way out of the room. Juliette opens the door and is disappointed to find Monroe and Rosalee as they are supposed to be on their honeymoon. They tell her there is no way they could go with everything that just happened.

In an interrogation room Trubel answers questions from Meacham and Pogue while Chavez and Rosten watch from outside the room. Rosten tells Chavez that Trubel's answers are consistent with what she told them at the house.

Hank is on the phone at his desk getting the flight number and arrival time of Adalind's plane to Vienna when Nick brings Hank a second cup of coffee that he didn't ask for. Hanks tells him he needs to take it easy so he doesn't look nervous. Hank tells Nick about Adalind going back to Vienna and Nick and Hank agree that she must have made some kind of deal involving Nick thinking she would get her baby back. Chavez and Rosten come out and say that no charges are going to be filed against Trubel at the time. Chavez says she's handling things pretty well for just cutting off someone's head. Trubel then comes out and asks if they can go now. Hank tells them to go while he heads to the hospital to check on Renard.

In a restaurant, Lawrence sits at a table with his laptop as he goes through the memories he stole from Henry to get remote web access to Henry's work. As he transfers information, workers at Henry's job notice what is going on, but they're not worried as long as the access codes are right. Kent Vickers calls Henry's phone to ask what he is doing, but gets no answer, and right after he hangs up, the data is finished being transferred, so Lawrence logs out and leaves the restaurant.

Hank arrives at the hospital where he finds Wu waiting around. Hank asks what he knows and Wu says only that Renard has been in surgery for over three hours. Wu then brings up the books he found at Nick's and how they reminded him of when he thought he saw an Aswang. ("Mommy Dearest") As they continue talking, the Thoracic Surgeon comes up to them. He tells them Renard is out of surgery, but he lost a lot of blood and there is a lot of damage, so his kidneys may shut down. He tells them they should contact Renard's next of kin to have them get there as soon as possible.
