Wherever that is that’s got a hold of them now, I wonder how long that place has been working on youngsters and whether that alludes to sleeper cell type Wesen out there - meaning there could be way more than they’ve alluded to so far. Instead of cells, I’m thinking parallel to Muslim radicalization. ---

> [@Nobody](#): > > On most TV shows, don’t series regulars usually get paid per episode? Since Juliette being gone is plot related, I wonder if Bitsie is getting paid anyway, or maybe she went on vacation and that’s when the filmed the scenes without her? Do we have any evidence that she hasn’t been written out of the show? > [@RikWriter](#): > > If the writers have the balls to really change things, they should have Adalinde and Nick become a real couple. I don’t think they intend to do that though. After Friday’s episode I’m beginning to like the idea of Juliette possibly coming back a little better. Just picture it: a year or so from now Nick and Adalind are awkwardly raising both Kelly and newly regained Dianna with the help of wacky live-in aunt Trubel (and occasional assistance from weekend daddy Renard) when a snarling Juliette appears and threatens to knock the house of cards all down on their heads. When it comes to that Nick and Adalind realize that they’re not just together for the kids or mutual protection or convenience’s sake at all, even if they started that way and keep pretending that nothing changed it… ---

I’m getting mixed signals. Anyway, it’s possible she’s truly dead and gone but I won’t believe it until the season ends with no appearance from her. ---

Much respect for the real estate agent Nick used to help him sell the house! It can’t be easy to unload a house that fast under ideal circumstances, much less one where multiple killings have recently occurred in a neighborhood where all of the neighbors are also dead. ---

I was confused by something: If Nick and Adelind are living in a super-sikrit lair, how did Truble know where they were? Kind of a lame Wesen-of-the-week – but I’ll admit it wasn’t until about 10 seconds before the reveal that I realized oh, it’s the daughter. (And why is Nick so confident that she’s okay to let go for the two murders she did commit?) I’m beginning to think Juliette won’t be back – but maybe they’re just waiting until Nick and Adelind have consummated their budding relationship. (Have they just totally forgotten the fact that she and Hank were dating for a while back in S1?) ---

D’oh! I totally forgot that! I guess we’re all supposed to forget all that she did while was Hexen. ---

(Have they just totally forgotten the fact that she and Hank were dating for a while back in S1?) Well, Nick and Adalind have a _child_ together. I think that trumps Hank and Adalind going on a few dates a couple of years ago. And Hank’s not exactly carrying a torch for her. ---

Hank only fell for her because of a magic cookie that caused him to obsess over her. Wu had one, obsessed over eating and got pica. ---

I’m not saying it was an important relationship, but it seems like no one has any recollection of it at all. He was quite smitten. Well, bewitched. ---

The people that were holding Truble must have some way of tracking the Phone Nick was told to keep. The only way for Truble to find them? ---

I’m guessing they’re setting the audience up for satisfaction when Meisner gets his Comeuppance. ---

OK, I’m confused about what’s going on between Trubel and Meisner. It looks like they’ll clear that up in the next episode. ---

Ugh, I get Nick being cordial and keeping her safe for the sake of the baby, but let’s not forget she raped Nick in the first place. Any storyline with them being actually a couple would be beyond ick. ---

Yes it would be ick, but I wouldn’t put it past the show. Since they clearly think we all forgot the house belonged to Juliette in the first place. I’ll bet they would think it’s fine since Nick managed to get it up when Juliette looked like Adelind, all’s forgiven, right? (not really, but the writers seem to have forgone logic more than once) ---

Hey hey hey, let’s not be bringing logic and reality into this show, eh? Or there’d be far more questions about all the dead bodies, his dead neighbors, where Julliette went, why Rosalee and Monroe keep showing up at crime scenes with Nick or Wu, Juliette’s family, friends and coworkers asking questions and you know, EXISTING at all in the first place… ---

Something unimportant I’ve been wondering about. I thought that Sergeant’s outranked Detectives, yet Wu seems to be bossed around by Nick and Hank. ---
