I don't think it was intended to be comical. If you look back to season four, you'll see Nick had the exact same reaction to Juliette whenever she woged. Although Monroe and Rosalee responded in the same way (and they're both Wesen!), in Nick's case it's a problem that might resurface later, especially if he and Juliette try to reconnect. Maybe Nick's big character arc for this season is him getting past that entrenched, instinctual tic once and for all.
You're sharp, Hexenadler, and you catch meanings that usually escape my notice. But gotta disagree with you on this one. You are saying in essence that he has a prejudice and I can see how events made it look this way. But to me, it was just the shock of trying to adjust to a beloved one who all at once embodies the physical and character traits of his most hated enemy among wesen; don't think he'd have that difficult a time if she were another type. Since he's getting to make peace with Adalind's hexenbiest (albiet suppressed) nature, I do think he will get past his illogical and purely emotional initial responses to Juliette as a Hexenbiest, especially since his own child may be one. If she is made evil, then we may never know. I do agree that he failed Juliette at a crucial time in her metamorphosis, but she gave up on the relationship long before he did.
That whatever-wesen was hard to look at, and Nick's reaction did strike me as funny; but it was only after I saw how anxious R and M were to stop it resurfacing. Remember Bud made a remark about it, too.
