I don't agree with everything on both sides of this debate but I felt the need to address this point specifically. This isn't a serious argument, is it?
This particular point in the debate seems like arguing just for the sake of arguing. Does nobody remember that Nick was talking about killing Adalind to save Hank right before Rosalee explained what "killing the Hexenbiest" actually entailed? Does anybody really believe Nick used it as an opportunity to cheat on Juliette and make out with Adalind?
I think Nick and Adalind ending up together has really led to some weird revisionist history. Nick did show attraction to her when he first saw her. That lasted briefly until he saw Adalind woge. Nick wasn't shown to have any attraction to Adalind for the rest of season 1. There was only disdain and he was pretty open about it to the point where Hank was concerned about it. He was clearly hostile to the woman he was assigned to protect and later on became Hank's lust object. Show me just one scene where Nick was lusting after Adalind after their initial scene. Even then, he was checking her out from across the street, never approached her, and didn't expect to ever see her again.
I don't know about that. Is it any less of an argument than the former debate about Nick committing sexual assault on Adalind by pinning her to the ground and forcing his tongue down her throat?
Aside from that, your first sentence is incorrect. No one was arguing that Nick wasn't trying to save Hank's life. It's the method that is questionable.
What I notice is most here are skirting around Nick's so called altruistic race to save Hank's life. In other words Nick considered his little pocket key so much more valuable than Hank. Another thing to consider is that Nick completely ignored his own diaries. Getting that close to a manipulative hexenbiest would have been a danger..........to Nick. He was very lucky it worked at all. But all that simply to keep a key safe. That doesn't say a lot for Nick.
But my end question is this. Why didn't he kill Adalind if that was his plan all along. He took her hexenbiest, there was no danger of Hank dying at that point. She killed his surrogate mother. So why not just kill her?
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
