Even Sean asking for her help she replied aren't you suppose to be helping me. She even questioned all the disadvantages he was telling her about being a hexenbiest. Even though Kenneth's motive was to get to Diana. He was the only one that gave her an options. Even henrietta only provide her with warnings. Even though Kenneth sentiments may not have been genuine. She appear to be more positive and show confidence after his offer. In the spice show she showed plenty of confidence in her abilities.
In my opinion, there has been serious injustice done to Juliette because we know so little about her. If this was Hank, or Bud, or even Trubel, I'd be fine with it. They are all secondary characters.
But Juliette is not. She's a main character.
Let's go back to the statements that began the argument; whether Juliette knew or did not know Kelly was going to be killed.
Now, most people believe Juliette knew Kelly was going to be killed and she went upstairs of her own free will because she was too much of a coward to face Kelly.
How do posters base their assumptions that she knew Kelly was going to be killed? Well, as Izzy brought up, she's a vet. She has to be intuitive as part of her profession. While that is true, my rebuttal to this is.......when have we ever seen her use intuitive skills as a vet? She was in the vet hospital with someone for a time span of seconds in one episode and she treated a horse in another for another span of seconds. In my opinion, that doesn't show me diddly squat about her intuitive, much less deductive reasoning, a passion to know, and from my own personal experience, an understanding of her own limitations and the necessary empathy and understanding to communicate that to her patients' caretakers.
There's nothing in Juliette's background that points to her as a liar. There's nothing in her background that points to her as truthful. I mean, we can't go back to a day in medical school where she cheated on her exam or a day in the life where she deliberately euthanized a pet because she didn't feel like operating. On the flip side, we don't have examples of kindness and empathy that we can relate from our own vets either. There's nada, nothing, she was in the hospital once and treated a horse once.
Juliette said she didn't know Kelly was going to be killed. I believe her because there's nothing in her background to show she didn't know or that she did. There's just nothing so I go with her denial.
As for going upstairs, I think Kenneth told her to go upstairs. Maybe it's as Izzy said. She was boinked to nothingness. Series place a lot of emphasis on boinking these days. One real argument here could be was Kenneth really that good or was Nick really that bad?
In any case, more than ever, I feel Juliette's character was dealt an unfair injustice. By doing so, she's been relegated to the ghost of the series.
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
