Quote:The point I was trying to make here is that there has really been nothing to confirm Nick is the father. So, if the creative team decided, one fine day Adalind could come up to Nick and tell him he's not Kelly's father.But we’re still basing everything on assumptions that haven’t been confirmed or questioned on the show.
We can surmise that -
Adalind’s pregnancy with Diana was reduced to six months due to the ritual, or that Hexenbiest and Zauberbiest coupling results in six month pregnancies
Grimm and Wesen or Human coupling results in standard nine-month pregnancies
- but the show hasn’t confirmed or questioned these details.
I completely agree that if the show was going past this season, Nick suddenly questioning Kelly was his biological child might be used to cause conflict in the relationship. But at this point, the show hasn’t offered any reason to question it other than ignoring the real world timeline for a pregnancy. And considering that Grimm has never bothered with specifics or believability, I don’t find this strange compared to other storylines and events.
In all likelihood, because they could reasonably establish a six-month gestation period, G & K simply didn’t bother using prosthetics to extend the pregnancy beyond the first episode in S5. I’m not convinced they’d bothered if having only a four-month pregnancy.
IIRC, someone said S6 spanned thirteen weeks. So Rosalee would be three to four months along at the finale. But unless something is said that suggests Rosalee’s due date, we don’t know if her pregnancy will come to term around six months like Adalind’s or in nine months like we’d expect in real life.
I can’t remember if they actually discussed the due date in the obstetrician visit episode. If anyone knows, that information could be helpful.
Quote:For that matter, maybe he's sterile. You have to wonder why Marie pegged him as the last of the grimms.I think the show introduced that the Grimm emerged when a family member Grimm died and later dropped it, much like it introduced Grimms as dying out and never mentioned it again. Trubel met other Grimms in her travels with HW. Plus, the Grimm heritage book probably wouldn’t have been such a big deal to Bonaparte if the Grimm line was dying out due to their inability to reproduce.
