Meanwhile, Capt. Renard continues to rally behind someone running for mayor while Nick gets called on by a secret government agency monitoring the supernaturals to give his thoughts on the recent Wesen uprising incident.
In the casting side of things, TVLine reports that "Gilmore Girls" star Keiko Agena has been tapped by the show for a guest-starring role in an upcoming episode which will focus on some big family problems that, as should be expected, the supernaturals are causing.
The 42-year-old will take on the role of a second-generation Japanese-American woman named Madoka Akagi whose teenage son died tragically but her husband believes that it wasn't an accident.
Joining the newcomer is "The Man in the High Castle" actor Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa who will play as one of the Akagis' family friends. His character, Takeshi Himura, happens to be a lawyer and he will help Madoka get through the mess.
For the meantime, "Grimm" Season 5 Episode 8 premieres Friday, Feb. 5 at 9 p.m. on NBC.
