Agree 100%
I don’t think they totally broke her and sooner or later she’ll turn on Meisner and his organization.
Still trying to figure it out - was the meeting with Eve simply a setup to get the ‘bad wolf claw’ people there for Eve to kill one?
Eve ‘remembers it all’ and is now completely one note - ‘following orders’ - I guess some arc of the season will be trying to “save her” which I find boring.
As much as I groaned when Nick/Adilade kissed, the followup scene made it ‘right’.
It was a test to see if Nick would be a good addition to Meisner’s organization.
So, if they can bring her back from the dead will we get a really big shocker when Nick’s mom shows up?
Yeah, I kind of groaned too, but I wasn’t too surprised. After all, they had been leading up to this. Although until this episode I thought maybe it was more Adalind falling for Nick instead of both of them having a mutual attraction.
I think Juliette was “only mostly dead.”
It was just a flesh wound? 
Was it me or has the film quality altered drastically for S5E7 - Eve of Desctruction? It looked like a day time soap opera. Has the Days of our lives production team taken over?
Eve must be a fan of “The Matrix”
“Tell me, Mr. Anderson… what good is a phone call… if you’re unable to speak?”
Very convenient of them to need to change the subject before looking up Trubel’s family in the Big Book O Grimm Lineage. :dubious:
Glad the key storyline hasn’t been forgotten (but since it is in the opening credits I figured they would return to them at some point)

Okay, I know they’re in a hurry and Nick is preoccupied with having boinked Adelind, etc. – but why the hell would they just blow off the fact that there was a Wesen in that church?
I’m guessing the campaign manager–the redhead that’s been enlisting Renard to endorse her guy–is part of Black Claw and orchestrated the assassination. I’ll bet her plan is to have Renard pick up the mantle and run for mayor himself. Not sure what her motivation would be for that, though.
I liked the awkward conversation between Nick and Monroe about Monroe’s ancestors “hunting.”
I actually like “Eve” much better in this incarnation. Much less whining. I would guess that at some point she’ll start to slip her leash, or they’ll trying to “save” her, or both.
I actually prefer Adalind, but I’d like to see her get her powers back. Showdown of the hexen beasts! 
Wesen are everywhere. There’s bound to be some wesen church members.
Yeah, when she took her cell call right before the mayor got shot I thought maybe she’s in on it.
Oh, almost forgot. That hiding place was flimsily hidden. I seriously doubt Nick and Monroe are the first in 800 years to find it.
Sure – but they’re looking for a church with some kind of Grimm power something or other in it, and they know the Black Claw contingent is after them. This is not like going to the grocery store and seeing a Wesen.
Maybe they’d never suspect a beaver of being part of Black Claw.
Nick’s a cop – a detective, in fact. He’s supposedly trained to … ah, fuggedaboudit, it’s a dumb plot hole to get hung up on.
I am confused about:
a) the eagle-eye sniper was shown a photo of Renard
b) then he shoots the mayor
Yeah I get that it was a bait and switch, but it seems to have been handled illogically and clumsily. [is clumsily even a real word?]
Did the cell phone call the redhead received (or initiated?) change the intended target?
I have a feeling that somehow Eve/Juliette and Adalind will trade the hexenbiestness somehow, and we’ll be back eventually to evil Adalind the hexenbiest, and plain old human Juliette, but with all the baggage involved in all that, and poor Nick will be left to figure all that crap out.
IF they actually go there - I will quit watching - there is no reason to do all of that switcheroo again from a story standpoint.
I can see a storyline where Juliette gets jealous of the new relationship, and has to come to terms with it - and then her dying the real final death.
That’s what I predicted a few months ago:
I still think this is a strong possibility, but I won’t mind being surprised by something different.
