That can be even worse than what Wu is currently experiencing. Remember, Monroe and Rosalee have both stated many times how lucky they were that Hank took Nick's revelation better than most. Maybe keeping Wu in the dark is better. Not everyone can accept truth the way Nick an Juliette and Hank have thus far.

They're dealing with someone's psych here, and that's probably the #1 place where you need to tread lightly and delicately.

I couldn't agree more...

I know it seems very cruel not to tell Wu in the first place, but the others didn't know how much and why Wu knows about the Answang in the first place. He didn't really told him that. And if they had tried to tell them, he wouldn't have really believed them. At that point, he probably would've thought, Nick and Hank were just trying to make fun of him. Returning his sacasm.

The Answang is a nightmarish creature and Wu (Drew by the way, where's E.T.? XD) was raised to fear this Wesen. And it was his childhoodfriend that got attacked. He was half out of his mind, just for that!

And in the Bedroom Nick tried to reason with him, tried to calm him down. Same in the Sanatorium. Hank was just lucky the first Wesen he saw hab been a relativly "normal" one. I mean, everybody knows about Werewolfs or Bigfoot. They're not that scary anymore thanx to Hollywood. Plus he wasn't raised with terryfing stories meant to keep children at bay like Wu...

So, given time, I'm sure Nick will tell him, but for now, Wu has to calm himself down.

I expect him to gain a tic though, getting nervous twitches everytime sth unusal happens ;)
