Angelique and J. arrived from Angelique's meet-up with her law school friends.

A nice cup of tea in the writing area. I think I'll light the lamps this evening.

Watched "Blind Love" from Grimm. Rosalee arranges a weekend in a hotel in celebration of Monroe's birthday with Nick, Eve, Adalind, Hank, and Sergeant Wu. A Wesen waiter recognizes Nick and plots revenge for Nick's throwing his father in prison for murder years ago. He collects hair samples from the characters' rooms and concocts a diabolic potion that he mixes with the dinner champagne. As a result Monroe falls in love with Eve, Nick falls in love with Rosalee, Eve falls in love with Nick, Adalind falls in love with Monroe, Sergeant Wu falls in love with a waitress whose hair strand fell into his champagne glass, and Hank falls terribly in love with himself. Rosalee takes no champagne because she is pregnant, and so she is the one who eventually confronts the waiter. The waiter takes the waitress as a hostage but falls off a cliff and dies, breaking the spell instantly. More comedic than threatening. A Midsummer Night's Nightmare.

Lieutenant Grossante, in revenge for not being groomed as the police captain as promised him, kidnaps Diana from Captain Renard's house, and then regrets it when Diana hurls him round like a mouse caught by a cat. In the end he calls Captain Renard and begs to be rescued from Diana.

Love the hotel respite. Reminded me of my favorite Hercule Poirot settings. Wish they'd shown the hotel group hanging out with more activities rather than just eating and drinking, but then again that would have made the episode less tight.
