It depends on the character and the show. Grimm tends more towards schemes or plots rather than cons, I think.Kitty Chandlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05524808952260453841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271373189216022547.post-37258724057149913832012-10-14T17:15:14.624-07:002012-10-14T17:15:14.624-07:00Wow, ok, I'm going to assume that "slut&q...Wow, ok, I'm going to assume that "slut" came out as "south" because my kindle's autocorrect is bizarrely prim.

Partly I don't think they could have gotten away with it; she's been established as more badass than anything else and only interested in interesting people, if Monroe is anything to go by. It would have been wildly OOC. Maybe that background is why I jumped to a con scenario: it seemed to me like something she'd do. Or maybe I've been watching too much Revenge and am just inclined to assume that EVERYONE IS CONNING EVERYONE.Miwomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16709427652545868711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271373189216022547.post-16252640705501052292012-10-09T18:55:33.382-07:002012-10-09T18:55:33.382-07:00A lot of shows (and, sadly, a lot of fans) would p...A lot of shows (and, sadly, a lot of fans) would portray a character in her situation as a slut, or at least play up her sexuality in a derisive way. Grimm didn't, which is infinitely to their credit, writers and everyone. The soon to be dead Lausenschlange was definitely played as the bad guy. To us, it seemed like she was only playing him for a couple of beers, and the rest was taking advantage of him not knowing when to back off.Kitty Chandlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05524808952260453841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271373189216022547.post-37184219946232868422012-10-09T14:56:03.969-07:002012-10-09T14:56:03.969-07:00Honestly, it never occurred to me that Angelina wa...Honestly, it never occurred to me that Angelina was slutty, but the impression I got was that she was running a con. Pick up an obvious idiot, lure him outside, smash him for his wallet, stash body and run. That was what I thought her various interlocutors' disapproval was about, and I think it's in character for her. Does it make the dude any less of an aahole? Of course not. But I do think she was playing him. <br /><br />Sigh, I was sad to see her go.Miwomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16709427652545868711noreply@blogger.com
