I'm surprised that there's not more reaction to Nikki's status as canon now being indisputable. I mean, sure it was obvious for a while now (OpAphid knew she existed, Nikki found the Watcher symbol before Gemma ever revealed it, and Nikki had followed Lucy), but it seemed like a lot of people still didn't think so.
I guess the new girl thing has taken center stage.
By the way, did anyone else laugh when Bree went from saying "I see faithful, naive devotion to a religion in this girl" to "I need your help finding out if this is the right girl"? We don't even know if Jules is religious, Bree!
As for all the hate towards Jules, does everyone remember how Jessica handled the role of Bree in the first few vids? Yeah, it wasn't beautiful. It wasn't terrible, no, but compare to now. Or even to the videos from a few weeks after that.
Give Jules' actor time. Most actors don't instantly feel out the role of a character. And, really, I think she improved from the first video to the second.

This supports my idea that this is a trap set up by the order. They might have forced her to do this video. Making Bree think that there is another girl. This would either get Bree to try and help this girl, helping the order get closer to her. Or maybe the order is hoping that Bree will get close to this girl while she is trying to help her and eventually save her (the new girl) from the ceremony by agreeing to do it herself (Bree) as like a trade or something. Either way, I dont' think the order really has a new girl, it is just another ploy to get a hold of Bree. At least in my opinion.
I can see them maybe trying to cause Bree to exchange herself, but why would the Order have forced a girl to do videos like
this? She doesn't talk about the ceremony or being religious at all.
If not for Nikki Bower's hunch, Bree would have probably never given Jules a second look.
I think it might be a bit much to suspect that this is a set-up. Nikki would have had to been in on it in that case - or the Order would have somehow had to predict that Nikki would find the girl and think that she's the one.
