"The Hour of Death" is the 10th episode of the supernatural drama television series Grimm of season 2 and the 32nd overall, which premiered on November 2, 2012, on NBC. The episode was written by Sean Calder, and was directed by Peter Werner.

Opening quote: "And branded upon the beast, the mark of his kin. For none shall live whom they have seen."

Nick (David Giuntoli) and Hank (Russell Hornsby) have been investigating the kidnapping of a girl named Donna Reynolds. They have a suspect, Adrian Zayne (Michael Maize). They question him but he panics, woges into a Schakal and attempts to escape but Nick and Hank apprehend him.

As they lack evidence, Zayne is released and Nick threatens him as a Grimm. Nick sneaks into his house in an attempt to find evidence and stumbles upon Hank, who was also looking for evidence. They discover Zayne's corpse hanging with symbols marked on his body. The police arrives and Wu (Reggie Lee) tells them that Zayne confessed to the kidnapping and Donna was saved.

While the TV makes a report, the symbols cause shock to Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell) and Bud (Danny Bruno). Monroe explains that the symbols means the Endezeichen Grimms, these Grimms have no heart and kill any Wesen in their path. As Nick is the only known Grimm in Portland, the Wesen will confuse him as the killer. Renard (Sasha Roiz) meets with Juliette (Bitsie Tulloch) to discuss Nick and after it seems that they unintentionally flirt, she leaves.

A video showing Zayne's torture before dying is uploaded on internet and the police identify one of the vans belonging to Richard Berna (Michael Patten), a friend of Zayne. They arrest him but he is worried that Nick would kill him, confusing him as the Endezeichen Grimm. He is somehow released and the police raid his house to discover his corpse. He is then taunted by the Endezeichen Grimm on the phone. They find out that Ryan (Michael Grant Terry) let Richard go and he went after Bud. Nick and Hank discover that Ryan has been stalking Nick.
