@Robyn I don't see any evidence that Nick was really upset over losing his Grimm powers. Juliette was the one who told Nick he had to be a Grimm again. Why did she do that?
As for Nick's character, the writers do make a bit of a sponge. I'd have liked to see if his kiss would have awoken Juliette from her coma. That would have proven that he had a pure heart.
@irukkandji, Nick had point where he knew the women wasn't Juliette and chose to carry on having sex. The choice and the option to stop make it consent. As Henrietta demonstrated a hexenbiest can use her touch to get just about anything. not-Juliette could do that to Nick in a blink of an eye. Would that constitute rape in your eyes?
The stalker Rosalee is going to have re-enter her life could try to force himself on her. Shows use rape as storylines. They also use murder. Is murder okay, but rape is wrong to use?
What Adalind did to Nick she did it to get Diana back. She didn't know Viktor didn't have her. What she did to Hank, on Renard's orders, to get Nick's key was much worse. Hank would have died; Nick's life wasn't threatened. Yet Hank has never given voice to what he felt about what happened and both he and Wu looked ready to eat some more of Adalind's cookies. The thought makes me shudder. Hank's never confronted his Captain about ordering him put to death unless Nick handed over his key.
As far as we know Nick hasn't talked to Hank about what really happened that night. Consider: Nick tells Hank who waits til Nick is out of the City and then empties a magazine into Renard's head at point blank range. That's not going to happen.
