He could have told her that Hank was in bad terms with Adalind, instead of saying " Is a Witch".

Hank being on bad terms with his ex would not cause Juliette to automatically consider her a person to be avoided or afraid of. Many men have referred to their exes as a witch, that doesn't mean she can actually hex someone.

Not only that, but he moped enough to convince himself to move out of the house and move in with Monroe. I thought the whole cat scratch story arc was way too long, but it did put Nick in an unsavory spotlight. Good point that that's a possible reason for Juliette not to confide in him about her hexenbiest problem. I had not thought about this episode contributing to that. It makes a lot of sense.

She wouldn't have refused to treat Adalind's cat because Hank and Adalind or even Nick and Adalind were on bad terms. What did Majique ever do to her? I've said before that I don't really think Juliette is to blame for what happened in the earlier seasons. I don't give her a pass for anything she did in the second half of season 4 but I'm not going to condemn her for how she acted during the cat-scratch fever days. She was truly a victim when those episodes aired and I'm not going to feel more sympathy for Nick rather than the person who had her memory screwed with by Adalind and had to live with a man she couldn't remember which had to be scary and confusing despite Nick's character. Juliette also had to fight off magically induced feelings for his boss and had to feel guilty over something she had little to no control over. I think falling under this spell was worse than any impulses she got as a Hexenbiest. I give her credit for not going all the way with Renard. Juliette deciding to have coffee isn't exactly crazy if she thought Nick was crazy when describing her. Adalind does have a harmless appearance after all and they were having coffee in public. Juliette maybe could've picked up on being interrogated but she can be forgiven for not connecting Adalind wanting to know about the trailer with nefarious purposes. How could she know that especially since it involves Nick which makes her memories of it hazy? It seemed like she was trying to remember it as much for her sake as she was because Adalind was questioning her.

You all make great valid points and arguments on how assessment on Juliette stupidity is misplaced or inaccurate if I have based my assessment of her on my opinions. Until you look at the dialogue between Juliette and Adalind in the coffee shop.
Some mention that she went there get information on her mysterious boyfriend secrets by keeping her in the dark. During this whole period, Seam was more of a priority than Nick. For such a smart sharp woman, where was her inquisitive mind wondering who was paying her bills, mortgage, taxes. If she was so smart, when Monroe was explaining to her for her being poisoned for dating a cop, why did she brush him off too When she met up with Adalind, where were all the questions she had on the subject of Nick. She seemed to be more interested in Adalind past travel plans than anything to do with Nick. If Nick was brought up in the conversation is was all from Adalind questioning not from Juliette. So that’s where your arguments fall flat on your faces. You are all making an argument on what you wish Juliette was doing there? Because her lines of questioning about Nick never popped up. All she did was answer questions. That’s what I call a grilling, a re-briefing, an interrogation. What was going on between the two was never a conversation. If she did meet with Adalind to get the scoop on Nick? What was that she learned from it? I think she made one reference to going out on a double date with Adalind, Hank, Her and her forgotten Nick. You all blame Nick for his shortcomings. Where is the blame for Sean? He was the mastermind behind all this. All this was a result from Sean's plans to get the Key. At this point, Sean knows that Nick is a Grimm and Nick is un-aware of it. He knows that Nick has no clue that He is Wesen. He is well aware what is going on between Juliette and himself. He has full recollection of drinking the cleansing potion and the initial kiss to wake Juliette out of the comma. As far as I am concerned, He is as much as a victim as Juliette, if not more. When all this finally comes to fruition. When all the secrets are known to her. What is the first thing she does after revealing her Hex to Nick? She goes and flocks the one whom is the most culprit in her ascension to becoming a Hexenbiest. Renard. Sorry folks. My assessment is based on what the character did in the screen not what I wished in a re-write.

So, me and the wife are up to watching S2, E12, Season of the Hexenbiest. My wife couldn’t believe. How Adalind was in control of the conversation at the coffee shop. I have not told her any spoilers of the upcoming seasons or episodes. Even she couldn’t believe how the conversation was more of a grilling of Juliette. My wife said she would have not put up with that line of questioning with a friend, let alone with an acquaintance.
She was also perplexed on how she lashed out at Nick when Adalind got arrested while her new, spit swapping, tonsil hockey playing partner, Captain Sean Renard, Nick’s boss, was present, on site and walked by her. She never said a peep of complaints to him. She already knew she was busted in the spice shop by Monroe, Nick’s best friend. Which reminded me of this thread.
