After the cat scratch he tried to explain that Adeline was a real witch. Honestly, would anyone believe that? No one warned them about the hat or Juliette being transformed into a hex. Would anyone give up their beloved because a dying relative said to do that? Tell your significant other you would drop them like a dead rat based on the advice of an aunt--go ahead but leave instructions for your family to let me know when your funeral is scheduled so I can attend. Of course, it was hard to ignore Grimm business, I would probably have gone to a shrink after seeing the first wessen.

Quote:Well, actually I think he took Marie's advice more than we think. Nick proposed to Juliette when she was unaware of his grimm activities, but suspected he was keeping secrets from her. Once she became aware, that would have been the perfect opportunity to propose again. No more secrets between them and they bridged another level of understanding between them. Yet he never proposed to her again after that.

Marie's advice was for Nick to end it with Juliette and never see her again. Maybe you're thinking of his mom's advice not to leave the people he loved?

The question on my mind is, was Juliette really Nick's beloved *after* Marie again plopped back into his life or did his talk with Marie sour Nick on a life with Juliette?
