Or maybe Nick’s happier with Adalind than he ever expected, but still loves Juliette?
I'll just point out that you can have very in depth, caring, respectful relationships with people you can never, ever turn your back on or trust.
I have several acquaintances who are prison guards. They have formed some very deep relationships with some prisoners. They are friends but they are also enemies. They know if they let down their guard they might be murdered, given the opportunity. Yet there is respect there, they both have jobs, assigned roles. And yet they are friends. I have taken more than one call, where a prisoner was murdered and a corrections officer took it hard, he lost a friend.
The above was an extreme example, but relationships are complex. I could see Nick falling in love with Adalind, being in love with Juliette and never trusting either. Humans are capable of very complex emotions,rationalizing many things, excusing others, and yet never forgiving others, often with the same person.
I really disliked season 5, so much so, I have not watched the last 8 or so episodes and am reluctant to do so. But to me, season 6 holds promise. It sounds like, knowing he series is over the actors want to explore adult themes and leave the black claw, pieces of wood, keys and all that nonsense in the trash barrel where it belonged and concentrate of the more complex dynamics of interpersonal relationships I welcome that type of plot line.
Can you be happy with someone you don’t trust? How do you plan a future with someone you don’t trust? It may mean nothing, DG might have just as easily said content instead happy and felt he covered the gist of it.
I haven't watched quite a few episodes either. Life got in the way of any TV watching time, and after skimming a few recaps & reviews, I realized I hadn't missed anything.
