Marie was a hunter, Kelly sought revenge, Nick protected of the weak, Truble was just trying to be left alone, so what was Rolex? Any guess is as good as another, just a fun exercise.
If you consider some of the expectations of what some contributors complaint about the creative team. It would take a spinoff series to plug all those holes for G&K to fulfill those demands
I am happy with the idea that Rolek was a Grimm, living in Philadelphia. He was keeping a low profile until 2 things happened. 1st, he was dying of cancer and wanted to pass on his Grimm stuff to another. Since his son's Grimm was maybe skipped. If you recall, Nick got his Grimm when he was at least 10 years older than Josh, he had to find another Grimm to pass on the more important "Key".
2nd, he came up on Verat radar and had to dispense his Grimm possessions sooner that he planned to because he couldn't wait around to see if Josh eventually got his Grimm. Now all this is information we were given on the show, maybe not with the same assumptions I have made but they seem to match up with what we were given.
BTW, One of my wishes would be, Josh and Trubel would make a nice Spinoff match-up. We never find out how far apart they are from each other on the family tree and could become a Grimm romantic couple. They seem to have a great relationship in the show.
You know you are OLD, when you see the Slide Ruler you used in college selling in an ANTIQUE SHOP!!
