Adding to tropes.
Added DiffLines:
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Really, all of Season One has this, but in comparison to the previous two episodes, Episode Three reveals a couple notable examples:
** When Nick is discussing the MonsterOfTheWeek with Monroe, Monroe comments that isn't aware of every "creature" in the world. It won't be for another few episodes until the show settles on "Wesen" being the collective term for all the various creatures that appear. Moreover, Monroe's dialogue in a later episode when he explains to Nick what Wesen are imply that he would have known the term at this point in the series.
** When reading up on Hexenbiests and how they are natural prey of the Mellifers, the journal entry Nick reads calls the Hexenbiest's GameFace their "morphed" form. Later on, the show would use the term "woge" for when a Wesen shows their GameFace.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Melissa, in her final moments, tells Nick that "he" is coming for the former. This could be referring to Renard, or maybe someone (or ''something'') far, far worse...

Not how that trope works.

Trope misuse. This is for someone coming up with a convoluted plan despite the simple solution staring them in the face, only for someone to point out what that simple solution is. If Monroe had suggested that perhaps they need to find someone with telepathic abilities to divine the information they're looking for, only for Nick to point out that they can just read it off a nearby envelope, then it would be an example of the trope.

* LaserGuidedKarma: [[spoiler:Nick guns down a Mellifer queen. At the end of the episode, he's stung by a bee. What makes this look a lot like direct payback is the fact that the bee first lands gently on the back of his right hand, ambles around harmlessly for a moment, and then ''stings his trigger finger'']].

* MeaningfulName: The Queen Bee of the Mellifers is Melissa, which means "honey bee" in Greek.
