That would have pushed him over the edge and I doubt some would have seen his actions as a heroic. It would have been akin to putting down a rabid dog after you infected it regardless of intent. It was far preferable to the narrative that Nick surrender himself to Juliette's wrath as a we saw at the end and have a third party put an end to Juliette.(02-04-2018, 07:02 AM)rpmaluki Wrote: I think the hexenbiest supposedly controlling the host was the writers attempt in backpedaling on Juliette's actions in S4. Adalind plus three other hexenbiests never showed signs of being controlled when they would have rather acted differently. Their actions were inherent to the individual themselves.Totally agree, G & K couldn’t commit to their own ‘Juliette goes evil’ storyline. But I have a hard time wrapping my head around them not moving full speed ahead with the spell causing the Hexenbiest spirit to have abnormally overpowering control over Juliette. That way they wouldn’t have interfered with established Hexenbiest traits, and, provided an avenue for Hexenbiest Juliette to go full throttle in her evilness without human Juliette being responsible.
For me, Nick confronted with having to kill Juliette, who was an innocent victim of the spell that returned his Grimm, would have been much more intriguing than him trying to suppress the Hexenbiest so he could get his girlfriend back.
