Grimm Episode 22 Portland filming locations

Grimm Episode 22: "Woman in Black"
SEASON FINALE!
This week: "As Nick delves deeper into his life as a Grimm, a trail of grotesque murders reignites the search for the elusive gold coins."
Aired: May 18, 9:00pm PST

The Grimm Season 1 finale made its way through many familiar locations from throughout the previous 21 episodes. Noticeably missing were the bridges and forest scenes, but last weeks' episode probably made up for that. This episode also featured the lovely Mary Mastrontonio as "the Woman in Black",  who hunts down the bad guys with her Jason Bourne-esque skills.

Monroe & Nick meet for coffee

Akira's motel room 
- Palms Motor Hotel at 3801 N. Interstate
Located on the MAX line on N. interstate, the bright red and green neon sign seems iconic. It is not the dodgiest motel scene/seen on Grimm (see the Joyce Hotel, Episode 4).

So many familiar locations:

• Police Station
• Adalind's kitchen - with a magical cat
• Renard's condo - with a murdered body
• Monroe's house
• Nick & Juliette's house - with a knock-down, drag-out fight
• Aunt Marie's Trailer - with a Juliette
• Hospital room - with cat scratch fever
• The Spice Shop - with Rosalee  

We also saw short scenes of the following:

• A cat shelter/boarding house
• Hank somewhere, nervous and shooting a gun into a closet, then snuggling a shotgun. We should all be a little worried about Hank. This season definitely did not end well for him.
• Also Juliette gave a shout-out for Laurelhurst Market dinner reservations...see Kristi Turnquist's recap at OregonLive. Interesting choice for Juliette, as Laurelhurst is Meat Central Butcher Shop, while last we heard in Episode 19, she was cooking up the vegan salmon...

The Big Reveal:
Nick takes Juliette to the trailer, shows her all his weaponry and tries to explain everything. She thinks he is crazy, runs outside...and immediately gets drenched in the rain. And I mean immediately. Sopping, dripping wet. It does not rain that hard ever.  OK, so Nick then takes her to Monroe's house to try to reveal all truth, but she passes out with the magical cat scratch fever before she can see the "proof" (Monroe morphing into his wolf self).

But the real kicker, the Woman in Black (Mary M.) is...MOM???

So that was the SEASON FINALE of Grimm. Great season! So many wonderful locales featured throughout these 22 episodes. Season 2 filming starts at the end of May, so keep your eyes out for film crews!

Thanks to all of you who have read and contributed to my Grimm locations coverage this season. I couldn't have done it without you!
