Clay tells Abe he wants out of boxing, but Kingston threatens to tell the police that Clay killed Moore (which Clay wrongly suspected he had) if he doesn't continue fighting for him. In Adalind's cell, the giggling creepy guy next door discloses via a riddle a stone Adalind is to move if she wishes to join him in an escape.

When they find out they go off to confront Kingston (Stan) they first discover they have a new victim - it's Abe, who's been thrown off a roof but sporting the same puncture wounds earlier found on Moore. In his pocket Nick finds a suspicious 'suicide note' confessing to the murders. When Nick, Stan & Trubel confront Kingston, they tell him they know he | The Last Fight (Grimm) |

A surprised, totally crestfallen yet angry Clay ultimately stands up to her when Trubel comes to his rescue and tells him he doesn't need to do what she's forcing him to do as now both Abe & Kingston are dead. When the mother insists Clay kill the Grimm, knowing Trubel was kind to him before, he instead turns on his mother; then in anger instead bashes his own fighting arm/wrist | The Last Fight (Grimm) |

(Seeing the damage she's wreaked, the whimpering mother seems remorseful, but it's left unsure if she's truly sad for her son or what she's done, or for his fighting ability/career now wreaked and the money he brought in which supported her.)

MaryAnn Sleasman from "TV.com", wrote, "In 'Last Fight,' "Grimm" wasted no time in tearing apart any delusions that Nick's missing powers were a good thing, focusing on a clever group of Wesen who'd figured out how to use that whole humans-can't-see-us thing to their advantage by fixing boxing matches—the trick was simply to pit much more powerful Wesen fighters against unassuming human ones."

1,175 | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) Intermedio () was a Colombian newspaper issued as a replacement for "El Tiempo", when it was closed down during the dictatorship of General Gustavo Rojas Pinilla, in the early morning of August 4, 1955. The night before, the newspaper building was occupied by government troops that prevented the publication of a new edition. "Intermedio" was the first publication of the Casa Editorial El Tiempo, a publishing company founded by former President Eduardo Santos in order to use printing equipment to make different kind of printed products. Historical background. On June 13, 1953 Lieutenant General Gustavo Rojas Pinilla assumed | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) |
1,176 | the presidency of Colombia in a coup d'état from Laureano Gómez, as he was retiring from his office due to health problems and had delegated his functions to the acting President, Roberto Urdaneta Arbeláez. Press censorship had been imposed during the Mariano Ospina Pérez administration, in 1949, and intensified with his successors Gómez and Urdaneta. Under Rojas, the situation did not change. The event that triggered the closure of "El Tiempo" was the death of journalist Emilio Correa Uribe, editor of "El Diario" in Pereira, and his son Carlos Correa. The official version claimed that they had died in a | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) |
1,177 | traffic accident, but all available information led to conclude that both of them had been killed by a group of armed conservative assassins known as "Los Pájaros" (English: "The Birds"). President Rojas Pinilla, during his trip to Ecuador, accused the Colombian press of lying about it. Roberto Garcia-Peña, editor-in-chief of "El Tiempo", sent a telegram to his colleague of "El Comercio" in Quito, setting out his position and emphasizing that the deaths had been murder and not due to a simple car crash. The government wanted to force "El Tiempo" to print on the front page for | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) |
1,178 | thirty days, a message retracting on its statements and apologizing to the President for having "offending him unfairly", but without saying that it was a rectification ordered by the regime. The intended text to be published was as it follows: Garcia-Peña roundly refused to publish that retracting message because his newspaper had nothing to beg for forgiveness. The dictatorship issued Act 036, and officially, in the early morning of August 4, 1955, "El Tiempo" was closed down. That same day, Minister of Government Lucio Pabón Núñez, read the official press release on Radio Nacional de Colombia (the Colombian government | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) |
1,179 | radio station) A few weeks later, Rojas Pinilla himself during a speech boasted of having destroyed a mass media that he regarded as his enemy and a sort of super-state, saying that "Since August 4, 1955, the country has been notified that the Head of State of Colombia is in the President's Palace and not in the publishing department of any newspaper". Foundation of "Intermedio". In order to not to leave his employees without a job and avoid bankruptcy, Eduardo Santos created the "Casa Editorial El Tiempo" by redistributing shares among some members of the Santos family, Roberto | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) |
1,180 | García-Peña, Abdón Espinosa Valderrama, and other people of his inner circle of friends and collaborators. After having fulfilled the legal requirements, "Intermedio" was first published on February 21, 1956. The editor in charge was Enrique Santos Montejo "Calibán", brother of Eduardo Santos. "Intermedio" used the same typeface in its masthead as used by "El Tiempo", the layout was identical, and the sections and columns were the same ones that usually appeared in "El Tiempo". Even street sellers of newspapers kept announcing it as "El Tiempo", although that was not its name. What is more, the name of "Intermedio" was | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) |
1,181 | purposely chosen to mean that the situation was something temporary, short-lived, like the interlude of a theater play, and that the dictatorship of Rojas, sooner rather than later was going to fall. To emphasize that idea, the front page of the first edition included a cartoon by Hernando Turriago "Chapete", in which a very old actor standing on stage, with an hourglass and a scythe in his hands, greets the spectators by saying: "Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen. And now, some moments of Interlude". However, in that first edition of twelve pages, "Intermedio" reluctantly had to publish | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) |
1,182 | a press release ordered by the regime in which ratified that the death of the Correas (what triggered the closure of "El Tiempo"), had been caused by an accident. The relationship between the government and the newspaper was ambivalent. On the one hand, in April 1956, Rojas suggested that the Santos brothers reopen "El Tiempo", but Eduardo Santos rejected the proposal and assured him that his newspaper would not return as long as the dictatorship existed. From then on, censorship became a little more flexible, but on the other hand, the import of paper and other supplies needed for printing | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) |
1,183 | were blocked by bureaucratic paperwork. Falling of the dictatorship, end of "Intermedio" and return of "El Tiempo". While Rojas's de facto regime was collapsing, two deadly enemies of previous decades, the leaders of Liberal and Conservative parties, Alberto Lleras Camargo and Laureano Gómez, respectively, were creating a strategy to overthrow the dictatorship. Thus, by the Agreement of Benidorm, on July 24, 1956, and the "Agreement of March" (from 1957), they set the basis of what would later be known as the National Front, which consisted of the democratic alternation in the Presidency of the two traditional parties and the | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) |
1,184 | equal distribution of bureaucratic offices. The political situation reached a critical point when a national strike was organized by most sectors of the Colombian society on May 5, 1957. Mass media, banking, industry, commerce, transport and other groups of the economy ceased their activities. Rojas Pinilla announced his resignation, designated as a replacement a Military Junta and escaped from the country on May 10, 1957. That same day "Intermedio" and its colleague "El Independiente" (issued as a substitute of "El Espectador") released extraordinary editions, with the breaking news on the end of the dictatorship. Thousands of people filled up the | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) |
1,185 | streets of Colombia to celebrate the falling of the dictator. In Bogotá, a group of them went to the building of "El Tiempo". The most enthusiastic ones climbed up the balconies to the fourth floor and tore off the "Intermedio" banner which had temporary covered the "El Tiempo" sign. In the May 11 edition, "Intermedio" announced that "El Tiempo" would circulate again when Eduardo Santos returned from his exile in France and there would be proper conditions to restart issuing. Those proper conditions were finally given by the Resolution 0199 of June 4, 1957, which rescinded the closure order against | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) |
1,186 | El Tiempo proclaimed in August 1955. The last edition of "Intermedio" (number 458) was issued on June 7, 1957. This was the final paragraph of the editorial column: As a tribute, the next day on June 8, 1957 when "El Tiempo" restarted, a new cartoon of "Chapete" was published on the front page. It was the sequel to the one published in the first number of "Intermedio". Now it showed the same old actor standing on stage, with an hourglass and a scythe in his hands and a pair of broken chains lying down on the floor. The old man | Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) |
1,187 | greets the spectators with a quote from Fray Luis de León: "As we said yesterday ..." Besides, "Caliban" summarized in his column "Danza de las Horas", which had been the performance of "Intermedio" through the difficult conditions which it had to deal with, and once finished its mission, welcomed the return of "El Tiempo": Intermedio (Colombian newspaper) Intermedio () was a Colombian newspaper issued as a replacement for "El Tiempo", when it was closed down during the dictatorship of General Gustavo Rojas Pinilla, in the early morning of August 4, 1955.
