-
The only cards you turn face up are the cards exiled with the Grimoire Thief that was sacrificed.
-
The last ability counters all spells on the stack with any of the appropriate names, no matter who controls them.
-
Once a player gains control of Grimoire Thief, that player can look at all cards it exiled, even if those cards were exiled while someone else controlled Grimoire Thief.
-
Once a player is allowed to look at the exiled face-down cards, that player may continue to do so even after Grimoire Thief leaves the battlefield or another player gains control of it.
