There’s never been rhyme or reason to why these people instantaneously trust. Adalind and Nick immediately trusted that one wouldn’t take the baby from the other. Even when Nick didn’t trust Adalind with his stick, he continued to trust her with his child.
Adalind trusted Meisner for the same reason she trusted Nick, both men took care of her and protected her. With Adalind that’s about all it takes. But I have no idea why Nick never worried that Adalind might take off with Kelly to find Diana, particularly in the beginning. She went to the Royals to get Diana before, so why would Nick assume she wouldn’t do it again. Nick and his people had already taken one child from her, why would Adalind assume they wouldn’t take another, especially when that second one was Nick’s.
You as the Grimm probably wouldn’t trust Meisner or Renard. I certainly wouldn’t have. But that’s not how Nick did things. He didn’t seriously distrust Renard until he came home and to an empty loft and read Adalind’s letter. Adalind warned Nick that Renard would try something. Meisner, Eve, and Trubel warned Nick that BC having Diana would compromise Adalind, but Nick didn’t react until Eve called to tell him something was happening with Adalind at that moment.
Nick and his friends weren’t protecting Adalind from Juliette or Kenneth. They were protecting Nick’s unborn child. Do you think they would have risked retaliation from Juliette or Kenneth in order to save Adalind? Nick might have wanted to save Juliette from crossing a line that she couldn’t come back from, but I don’t think he would have lost sleep over Adalind’s demise.
