13* ClosestThingWeGot: Nick has to basically perform surgery while being guided over a video-phone by Rosalee to perform an operation she's only read about because there's literally nobody else available.
14* DirtyCop: The sheriff of Whispering Pines is revealed to be on the plan to acquire the Unbezehlbar.
15* DomesticAbuse: Tim and Robin first come to Nick's attention when Juliette becomes concerned about Robin's safety. Nick soon realises the situation is more complicated.
16* EvilCannotComprehendGood: The two plotters believe that Nick wants the Unbezehlbar for himself when he really wants to help out Robin.
17* FairytaleMotifs: The Goose That Laid The Golden Egg.
18* MeaningfulName: Robin is a bird-type Wesen.
19* NeverMyFault: After Tim murders Gary, he blames Robin for getting him killed.
20* NoMacGuffinNoWinner: The Unbezehlbar winds up being shattered against a tree branch, making it worthless.
21* RejectedMarriageProposal: Seventeen episodes after buying a ring and after a weekend of trying to find the right time, Nick finally proposes to Juliette after they return home, deciding that "finding the perfect time" is a lost cause and all that matters is their commitment to each other. Juliette turns him down, as she's come to suspect he's hiding something from her, but they stay together.
22* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: When Nick calls Monroe for information on Klaustreiche, Monroe tells a story from his past; his high school girlfriend, Molly, left him for a Klaustreich who got her pregnant. Her parents called the cops, and in revenge he slashed her face.
23-->'''Nick:''' Ooh. I hope they caught him.\
24'''Monroe:''' Well, ''they'' didn't, but... [''[[ImAHumanitarian Rests a hand on his stomach]]''] ''Somebody'' did.
25* YoureInsane: Invoked by name when Tim has Nick at gunpoint. Nick responds by juggling the fragile Unbezehlbar.
26-->'''Tim:''' Are you insane?\
27'''Nick:''' Well, I'm in the woods, I just cut a golden egg out of a girl's neck, you tell me.
