HW and BC ended up being a dud to me but there's no doubt that they were advertised as the biggest stories in season 5. Eve was HW's top soldier and was in every episode since her return. She was often the one getting valuable intel that pushed the plot forward and they showed how much more powerful she was in comparison to everyone else. Even BC feared her.
Ironically, this only made the character twice as irritating to me. Juliette/Eve never "earned" her powers; they were thrust open her, and then she exploited them to evil ends. HW brainwashed her into an alternate persona, but she still wasn't using her skills in any beneficial way. She was basically a puppet for Meisner, and nothing more. Where Hexenette was a frothing mad dog, Eve was a police-trained German Shepard. Both were killers.
