"To Protect and Serve Man" is the 11th episode of the supernatural drama television series Grimm of season 2 and the 33rd overall, which premiered on November 9, 2012, on the cable network NBC. The episode was written by Dan E. Fesman, and was directed by Omar Madha.
Opening quote: "The beast was simply the Call of the Wild personified... which some natures hear to their own destruction."
In a flashback to 7 years earlier, Hank (Russell Hornsby) and his partner are called to a fight in a house. At the scene, they find one man dead and another wounded. A third man, Craig Ferren (Jason Gedrick), flees but Hank catches and arrests him while he yells about "monsters" wanting to eat him.
In the present, it is one day before Ferren's execution. Knowing what he now does about Wesen, Hank thinks that Ferren may have been telling the truth, and asks Nick (David Giuntoli) for help to prove his innocence. They find a drawing of what Ferren saw, which Nick identifies as a Wendigo—a cannibalistic type of Wesen that kills humans and buries the bodies in a pit. They go to the location of the house intending to search for bodies, but discover that a grocery store has been built on the site.
Nick and Hank visit the address of the wounded man, John Kreski (Jamie McShane). They find bodies under the house, but Kreski arrives and attacks them: he traps Nick in the body pit and escapes. Nick calls DA Lauren Castro (Lisa Vidal) to convince her to stay the execution. Kreski confronts Nick and is killed by Hank. The authorities inspect the grocery store and find more bodies. Castro announces that Ferren is to be released pending further investigation.
Renard (Sasha Roiz) arrives at the spice shop hoping to collect the potion to reverse his obsession, bringing Juliette (Bitsie Tulloch) with him. Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell) walks in on them kissing and is shocked to recognize Juliette.
