This thread continues the Forum tradition of lengthy discussion about the character(s) Juliette, Hexenette and FrankenEve. I will again post some transcripts and commentary. First, from 1.16, "The Thing with Feathers" the proposal:
Quote:NICK: Okay, look, I know that this weekend didn't turn out the way I planned.Nick had "closed off" his Grimm life IMO to protect her. The Grimm/Wesen world was dangerous and humans that got a glimpse of it became emotionally distressed, hurt or even killed. They were not communicating well, even though they seem deeply in love.
And, uh, I think the thing of it is, you kind of have to make your own perfect moments.
So Juliette, will you be my wife?
Juliette: I can't.
I love you so much.
And I really, really want to marry you someday.
But I can't right now.
Nick: Because of what? I'm a cop? ls that
Juliette: It's not because of your job.
It's you.
I feel like you've been keeping things from me.
You've been so closed off.
I know how hard Aunt Marie's death was for you.
But until you can let me back in again, I can't say yes.
Next, from 2.04 "Quill" Juliett and her friends:
Quote:Juliette: So Bud, the reason that I wanted to talk to you is that I have been having some really weird issues with my memory lately.Juliette sought out who she thought could help her understand Nick and their relationship the Adalind's cat scratched away. I underlined what IMO indicates the friend held Nick in high regard and would be a good husband.
I was in the hospital recently
Friend: You were? Oh, my God, that's terrible, unless, of course, they were saving your life, in which case, thank God.
- Are you all right? -
Juliette: Yeah, no, I'm totally okay.
I just I just wanted to know what you remember about me and Nick.
Friend: You and Nick? You guys are the perfect couple.
Juliette: - Really? -
Friend: Well, yeah, of course.
I mean, you're so much in love.
I still can't believe why you guys aren't married yet, even though that's none of my business.
Has something happened to Nick? -
Juliette: No, no, no, Nick's fine.
Friend: - Oh, thank God.
You scared me.
I mean, that Nick is one of a kind.
Then in 3.17, "Synchronicity" Nick and Juliette discuss marriage:
Quote:Scene: Nick and Juliette fold laundry while talking about Nick potentially wearing sunglasses at Monroe and Rosalee's wedding.At this point, Juliette is fully aware of his Grimm and IMO has an expectation that she will eventually marry Nick. We all know how the plot moves from love and romance to tragedy, but IMO it was Juliette becoming a hexenbiest and throwing away everything she had to pursue a life of hatred, betrayal, destruction and violence, that destroyed their relationship.
Juliette: You really think sunglasses will be enough?
Nick: They said it works. They couldn't see me as a Grimm.
Juliette: Well, if the wedding's at night, don't you think you're gonna look a little strange? And what if you trip and they fall off?
Nick: This isn't helping.
Juliette: Sorry.
Nick: [He puts some clothes in his drawer and finds the engagement ring] Hm.
Juliette: Hmm. Still there.
Nick: Yeah. Still here.
Juliette: So am I, and when the time is right, we both know where to find it, but one wedding to worry about right now is enough, especially if you have to whack a few guests.
