A final note. We must be careful not to feel sorry for Adalind. She is cruel, petty, selfish and has no respect for the lives of innocents. She has done many an evil thing, none of which is excused by her current suffering. There may be the inclination to feel sorry for her but, at the end of the day, we must remember that it was her own cruelty, treachery and petty scheming that brought this down on her head. She has thoroughly earned her fate, no matter how bad it will be. I do feel sorry for Adalind. As a mother myself, I completely understand her love for her daughter and her desperation to get her back.

Most of Adalind's scheming was on Sean Renard's request, so he is as bad, if not worse, than she. It was he who ordered her to kill Nick's aunt and it was he who ordered her to seduce Hank.

Also, of all of them, Adalind is the only regular character on the show who has'' not murdered anyone. ''
