!!This episode provides examples of:

* AbusiveParents: The Malers are a toxic family. The father, Paul, is snide and emotionally abusive, while the mother, Haley, is self-absorbed and more focused on social media than her baby. The situation between them is worse by the end of the episode, and will apparently deteriorate until a nineteen-year-old Auggie kills both his parents.
* CassandraTruth: No one believes El Cuegle is preventing future tragedies until the end, when he's dead anyway.
* PsychicLink: Nick has a dizzy spell when Eve picks up the stick.
* PsychicPowers: Diana can sense that Rosalee is pregnant, and tells her and Monroe that she has more than one baby.
* SanitySlippage: With Meisner now appearing to him in person, Renard has started shouting at thin air in public.
* ShoutOut:
** The Grimm diaries' image of El Cuegle resembles the Francisco Goya painting, "Saturn Devouring His Son".
** When Monroe hears the description of El Cuegle, he asks, "You sure it wasn't a one-eyed, one-horned flying purple people eater?"
* WouldHurtAChild|: El Cuegle has visions that compel him to abduct and eat babies who will grow up to do terrible things.
* YouHaveToBelieveMe: Haley insists that a monster took her baby and sticks to that story even as her husband derides her as crazy.
