You're right, I remember something about Hexenbiests being referred to as the de facto sociopaths of the Wesen world in the first season. For storytelling purposes I would just prefer it if Juliette's development was a little more complex than just, oh she's a Hexenbiest so she's all bad now. I mean that girl has good

You really did pay attention, didn't you. Hm, nipples, you say…

Nick.

No wonder she goes for Sean. The one guy guaranteed to not be turned off by her. Poor girl.

Shonda Rhimes, are you listening?

Ew.

Packs a mean punch though.

Well, so is Kelly Burckhardt and she's a Grimm, not a Hexenbiest. Perhaps trying to survive - particularly with great powers - has that effect on people regardless if they're Wesen or human. Sean's mum seemed very warm in her relationship with her son, she also gave part of her life force (or something) in order to

Yes, let's not let logic and common sense get in the way of a steamy plot development…

Also telling us that the side-effect is permanent - like Juliette's side-effect is permanent…but the frog-princess made her peace with it: of course she had a choice in the matter, whereas Juliette didn't…

Oh thank you for the visual…

You and me both.

Something like that… it's a lot to process for her. I mean, I love her new powers but can see why someone who didn't actually really sign up for this Grimm business might be less than enchanted at looking like the zombie apocalypse even if it comes with immense power. Particularly since she got this way in order to

Oh yeah. Me either… next Friday can't come soon enough. Sasha Roiz fulfilling his contractual obligation to get his shirt off again.

She's obviously changed but I think we need to cut her some slack - she didn't grow up as a Wesen so this is a pretty sucky development for her - no matter how enjoyable for the viewer. I don't think that's she bad per se now but just trying to find her way. Also Nick did reject her pretty clearly so her whole world

Ultimate insult: part-time vet.

Hm, not sure if that goes for ALL hexenbiests - after all Sean's mum is pretty powerful but balanced and so is Henrietta. I prefer to think that Juliette's still processing a pretty overwhelming situation.

I was actually expecting Kenneth to change into some kind of Wesen himself… I'm still letting Juliette off the hook about her aggressiveness/her complaints about her condition which is still rather new to her. She's allowed some time to process all that and figure it out.

Those voicemails were pathetic. At one point he was actually ordering her to call him - WTF.

Am adoring Juliette's march to the dark side. She and Agent whatshisname on SHIELD should be nominated as most improved characters in tv.
