1) But keep this in mind: Miles and Kerry love throwing in-your-face OMG curve balls at us out of nowhere,

2) and volume 3 is proof of that.

3) You're right, Jaques might not be crazy, but he is by no means a good person either. It's been stated multiple times that he would do anything to win,

4) as well as destroy anyone who stands in his way.

5) Who's to say that won't apply to Weiss or Winter if they, for one reason or another, stand in his way?

6) Even though the rest of the "Dark Power" theory is less than plausible, I still firmly believe that Jaques will go too far, most likely hurting alot of people in the process, including his daughters. 1) If your argument depends so much on the writers pulling shit out of nowhere, it's not a good argument.

2) We were told around half-way through that the show would get darker, enough to make it "not-so Kid Friendly", by RT themselves. The opening itself already implied it. In fact, the only reason the V3 finale was so surprising was mostly because Miles, Kerry and Monty had failed previously at making the bad guys feel threatening. Then they managed to do it, and BAM, actual drama.

The only real curve ball was the Silver Eyes, whose only foreshadowing was too minimal and subtle making them be a Deus Ex Machina, and said foreshadowing implied other, more believable things.

3) But "Mean" does not = "Stupid/Crazy". And "do anything to win" does not mean "do anything that would be a downright terrible idea because it could pretty obviously backfire".

4) Remind me when this was even implied?

5) The fact that it would cause so much "controversy" that Jacques, and thus the "Schnee" name, would suffer great PR drops, and besides the fact that a low PR would negatively affect the SDC, Jacques has an obsession with making the "Schnee" name have a high PR.

6) Everyone and anyone can propose a "What". But the important part is not the What, it's the Why and the How. And so far, you haven't provided any reasonable Whys or Hows.
