Opening quote: "But for the pit confounders, let them go, and find as little mercy as they show!"
Adalind (Claire Coffee) meets with Prince Viktor Chlodwig zu Schellendorf von Konigsburg (Alexis Denisof), Eric's replacement. Viktor wants to find out who killed Eric and also says that he is Renard's (Sasha Roiz) cousin. Adalind tells him about Renard and also about Nick (David Giuntoli), identifying him as a Grimm. Back in Portland, a man named Gregorek (Matthew Willig) breaks into a house and begins to rob it. Someone enters the house and Gregorek kills him using his Wesen form.
When Nick and Hank (Russell Hornsby) investigate the scene, Nick thinks that the creature was a Siegbarste again. Meanwhile, a city worker enters the sewer to fix it when he hears sounds from inside and is killed by a creature. In Vienna, Renard (Sasha Roiz) and Meisner (Damien Puckler) meet with Sebastien (Christian Lagadec), who reveals that Viktor will meet with two men, Frenay and Tavitian, the former being the prime suspect of Eric's murder.
Nick and Hank are sent to investigate the murder and while inspecting the sewers, Wu (Reggie Lee) finds the worker's leg. In his backpack, many items from the robbed houses are revealed, linking the murderer to the man killed in the house. The examination also reveals that the marks belong to that of an alligator. Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell) suggests that the killer is a Gelumcaedus. Along with Rosalee (Bree Turner) and Juliette (Bitsie Tulloch), Nick and Hank find that the Gelumcaedus are ancient creatures who protected the sewers.
Acquiring a map, Nick and Hank find that the sewers connect to all the robberies in the area. They travel to the sewers where they are attacked by a Gelumcaedus. Hank manages to knock him with a rifle and it woges back to his human form, revealed to be Gregorek, who says: "Dēcapitāre". In Vienna, Renard, Meisner and Sebastien arrive at the meeting with Frenay, who is executing a man for betraying them and tells Meisner to kill him. In the station, Nick and Hank try to make Gregorek confess but he refuses. Nick learns from Rosalee that the word "Dēcapitāre" means "he who decapitates" in Latin.
Hank goes home, calling Nick believing that there may have been one or two others involved in the killings, as some took place at the same time as others. Hank is then attacked by another Gelumcaedus and subdued and taken to the sewers. The man, Andre (Ernie Joseph) calls Nick and demands that he releases his brother, Gregorek or he will kill Hank. Nick accepts Andre's terms and releases Gregorek and takes him to the sewers. However, the brothers decide to kill them with the help of another Gelumcaedus. Nick frees Hank and battle the Gelumcaedus brothers, killing Andre and the other brother, and arrest Gregorek again. Adalind's room is revealed to be watched over by Viktor while Nick returns the armor to the trailer while uttering the word, "Dēcapitāre, I kind of like it".
