When did Adalind do brainwashing? Is this the Juliette coma thing from season 2?

Elizabeth Lascelles is a lot more experienced than both Adalind and Eve/Juliette however she too is prone to concoting spells with side effects. I think the Grimm writers just love having side effects.

Adalind is considerably weaker than Eve/Juliette. If that Biest fight didn't showcase this, I don't know what will. Plus Juliette was not even in the best place mentally, and Adalind was prepared to overpower her so it wasn't just underpreparation on Adalind's part.

Everything that Juliette did in her mental state and everything that Eve is doing now has been successful with no loose ends. To me that showcases scalpel qualities although she has the power of a sledgehammer. That's more than I can say for Adalind who's spells' side effects cause more trouble than the actual spells. So yeah, Adalind is inefficient and severely underpowered in comparison to Eve/Juliette who lacks the experience of Elizabeth and Henrietta.
