Two murders and the attempted theft of a very strange mummy bring Monroe and Rosalee to reveal a big secret of the Wesen community; the Wesen were GODS in ancient Egypt. The murderers are part of a movement that retrieves Wesen remains and prevents them from being displayed.

Meanwhile, Adalind and Meisner again run for their lives after a tortured Sebastien reveals the location where he dropped them off. Sgt. Wu, still fighting for his sanity is visited by Juliette. She tells Wu of her ordeal, which seems to have helped him because Wu is later picked up and taken home by Nick and Hank.

* GodzillaThreshold: Played with. Alexander comes to Portland apparently just to tell Nick that the murderer he's after has "crossed the line" by killing someone and the Council would like that person dead.
* JerkassHasAPoint:

to:

* DeityOfHumanOrigin: It was believed that if someone was buried with an Anubis, they too would become a god, and so they were hunted a lot in AncientEgypt.
* DueToTheDead: The ''Beati Paoli'' hunt their mummified remains so they can give them proper burial.
* Myth/EgyptianMythology: Wesen used to be gods in Egyptian myth, particularly Anubis. Apparently Ammit, Bastet, Khepri, and Tefnut are also Wesen.
* GodzillaThreshold: Played with. Alexander comes to Portland apparently just to tell Nick that the murderer he's after has "crossed the line" by killing someone and the Council would like that person dead. However, no one believes that this is all he came to town for and investigate, revealing that he's been in Portland for days and is after the mummy himself.
* JerkassHasAPoint: The ''Beati Paoli'' are thieves and murderers (although that last part was unplanned), but they're not wrong that displaying the remains of Wesen who were tortured to death for a Pharoah's burial rites is probably distasteful. It's also true that Dr Gates was probably about to cause a lot of problems with her discoveries about the Anubis skeleton.
* LikeAGodToMe: Anubis were worshiped as the god(s?) of mummification in the time of AncientEgypt. This didn't work out as well for them as could be expected.



* WaterTorture: Sebastien, revealed as Renard's spy in the Royal family, is lured to a meeting that ends with him being taken prisoner.
