That you're a nicer person than I am? That you're more practical and willing to wait and see how things turn out? That even though she's not a Tamara, an Aeryn Sun, a Zoe, Blondie may still serve the story? That it would be wiser of me to stop yelling at her to get offa my lawn and wait and see how things turn out?
Yeah. That. I'm working on it.
My whole POV of blondie and the reactions to blondie are based on reading an entire summer's worth of bellyaching about the character and the actor over at TWOP. So, on the one hand - I totally get the misgivings, but I also hope that people will give her a chance. I mean, the actor is a completely unknown factor -- or almost completely. Who knows what she can do? Or cannot do?
I hope that when we find out what the character's story is that it fits into the picture in a very organic way which is why I'm rooting for her to be Wandell's daughter.

That's not what I was saying, babe! I just have ... lower expectations than some of you.

I'm not sure I like that idea, honestly. Because it seems like we should have had some evidence that she was a hunter, just from the boys going through Wandell's things (especially the letter to her).
Also, a) I'd like to see someone hunting who isn't either a hunter by blood, or someone who loved and lost, and b) as I think was said earlier, or possibly elsewhere, if she's Wandell's daughter, her most obvious motivation for tailing Sam is revenge. In which case, she missed her chance, big time, and doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
Again, though, willing to wait and find out. Honestly, I'm more peeved by the name (which I already know, plus SPOILERISH the name of the female character yet to be introduced, and they're so ... uber feminine and sort of romance-novelish. Why can't they be named, like, Jane? And Kate? Or something normal? So, not entirely without the irk.
Amy, I just feel curmudgeonly. And like I'm being pre-emptively unfair. So I am working on it. It wasn't what you said so much as my annoyance with myself.
So, you want a bounty hunter?
Some people think that Blonde chick's powers of disappearing suggest that she is a demon, perhaps there are YED's demonic forces fighting a battle against other demons - and she is protecting Sam because she is one of the YED's folks.

I'm not so much predicting that as wishing they would go there. Petite blond as ass kicking evil demon would be awesome. But people who know the show think it is very unlikely.
Someone else said she gave a look to one of the "sins" like she recognized them. Now I have to go re-watch. Mysterious-er and mysterious-er.
Ooh, that is interesting.
I've rewatched and I can't tell if the brunette SIN in the room says "You!" or "No!" when she sees the Mysterious Blonde. That one word makes a big difference. "No" just might mean she doesn't want to go back to being trapped in Hell. But if she said "you", then -- we just got a little more complicated and twisty.
I agree that if the blonde was the daughter of the hunter Sam killed, she wouldn't be saving his ass. I really do like the idea that she's a demon that sees Sam as a kindred spirit in need of protection, and feeds into the "Sam came back wrong" idea (if the YED was speaking the truth and not just sowing lies of distrust)
