My thoughts: Adalind

I know many here hate Adalind. Great. She at least is the most consistant character on the show. Adalind is a spolied, self centered and narcissistic brat. Face it, she beautiful, smart, gets her way, will take short cuts, will ruin other people's lives and more. She's learned to take, trick or threaten and was taught that leaving her an emotionally stunted shell of a human who looks for things to fill her empty soul. Which is why she wants what she wants, WHEN she wants it and woe to those who thwart her.

Possibly why she wanted her daughter so bad. I don't know how great off a mom she'd be. Most people treat others the way they had been treated as they really don't know any other way to act. Her love of her daughter could easily be seen as her not really loving her daughter, but the thought of her daughter. With her baby, it would likely be a more for Adalind going back to replace the love she probably never had from her mom.

Adalind only is stopped by 1 thing: Fear. She fears those who can hurt her, either by instant retaliation (a Grimm) or if everyone knows the retaliation would come and it would be over-whelming (the Royals). Right now, her "I want it NOW", has blocked even that. Only goes to show Adalind is a true narcissist.

Adalind's future is not bright. She has showed her true colors to everyone. To the Grimm Gang, she's never to be trusted and most likely attacked on site at least to control her and get Nick's powers back and then told to never show her face. From the Royal's POV, she has shown herself to be completely unreliable, completely malleable by anyone who has something she wants and completely useless from now on. As all know sh'ell do anything to anyone for her own selfish reasons, nobody will trust her.

With any luck, the Prince has a really, really dark and dank hole for her to stay in and rot. Would that even change her? Almost assuredly not. If Adalind were to learn that Renard, et al, stole Diana from the Royals, she'd blame them even still. In Adalind's mind NOTHING is ever her fault
