Talk:Witch's Hat/@comment-24264679-20170221063549/@comment-25862208-20170223042853

So, I just did some double checking, and the first witch's hat we saw, the one Adadlind inherited, was last used at the spice shop in "You Don't Know Jack" to strain the Hexenbiest suppressant. I've tried to establish a point in the show at which that hat would have ended up at HW, as you said Eve took it from the spice shop, but after going through things, I haven't found any evidence that shows Eve took the hat from the spice shop.

Eve's first time ever going into the spice shop was established in "The Believer." The show has never established that she went to the spice shop before then, so I don't know how she would've gotten the witch's hat from the spice shop, especially without Rosalee and Monroe knowing about it. She used a witch's hat in HW in the previous episode, "Skin Deep," to turn into Renard, and she then told Rosalee and Monroe about what she was planning to do afterwards in "The Believer."

It's tough to know if the hat Eve used in episode 603 was Adalind's former hat or the one she had used at HW, but I double-checked the transcript, and Eve never makes any mention of needing to call Adalind because it was her stuff--she simply said Adalind knew "more about these spells than anyone" when they were trying to figure out why Nick wasn't turning back into himself. Earlier in the episode, Nick asks Eve if she still has the hat; it makes sense that he'd be asking about the one at HW since the Portland compound had been destroyed, where Eve's hat had been kept before.

This may be something that needs to be clarified by the writers, but it would be speculation to think that Eve took the hat from the spice shop when there really isn't a timeline established where that would make sense. I'll link this issue to WesenZoo; please feel free to comment on his message wall where I'll be creating a thread on this.
