A part of me even wants to hold onto hope like the other posters that it wasn't really her, but...I think it has to be in order to set Nick up to kill Juliette and good riddance. The real problem with what Juliette has become is that I'm not convinced that being a hexenbeast means you have to be an evil mega-whore. I didn't particularly like the character before, but now there is very little Juliette could do in order to redeem herself. Then again, they have softened Adalind quite a bit, so I suppose we'll have to see.
On a sexist note, while I won't miss Jack the ripper, I will miss seeing the Captain flash his chest every episode.
Pretty sure it was already sexist when Juliette was called a whore. It's misogynistic. It's not sexist saying seeing Renard's chest is a perk. That's obviously what the writer's wanted. He was put on display on purpose. Promiscuity has nothing to do with Juliette being a bad person. She's being a bad person because she's hurting people on purpose. For some reason, society (especially mainstream television) likes intertwining woman's sexuality with "badness," which is unnecessary. Don't get me wrong, she's a bad person because she decided to cheat on Nick (even though they DID break up kind of), but I'm just against the term 'whore.' It's unnecessary and is never used in a context of when men do they same thing.
If this is confusing, this video would be helpful:

Sorry, I'm perceptive when it comes to feminist issues because, duh, I'm a woman and encourage reevaluating the playing field.
