Or maybe it's not bad writing but setting up Juliette to play the devil for Season 5.

Kelly trusted Juliette. Which is why she lost the fight.

She gave up who she was because she thought she could let her guard down with Juliette.

In order for Nick to accept that he'd have to kill Juliette and the Royals someday, his mother had to die and Juliette had to be responsible for it.

It's conflict and needed to drive story forward, keep us in suspence. Screenwriters know this stuff. The bratty fans portion of the fandom don't.
