S04 should have ended with the helicopter takeoff. Instead of BC, season 5 should should have been Nick and the scoobies, now including Renard and Adalind, heading for Europe to recover Diana, contacting Nebosja, finding out that Nebosja had three keys (his own family's key plus two that other grimms had managed to steal back from the royals) and then going after the remaining keys. Followed by a chase through the Black Forest to find the grimm treasure with the verrat and hexenbiest Juliette hot on their heels. And instead of the stick of destiny being part of Zerstorer's stall it should have some power object that became Nick's magical weapon in the scoobies' final battle to the death with the verrat and his former GF.
In my opinion, Juliette never seemed impressed with royal intrigue and would have preferred going off on her own. I think I would have liked that much better, her getting away before Nick could even land in Europe. A big showdown between Nick and Juliette is only going to end in one way, and that's with her being killed. That makes Juliette a tragic figure and a martyr and seriously calls Nick's agenda into question.
Truth be told, though, while I thought it was cool that Juliette turned into a hexenbiest, I was disappointed in the absurdness that followed. I think it would have been much better if the series had just developed her character a a human.
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
