I like the theory of Pinochio being the 7 year old to find Emma on the freeway, however the blue fairy said, “All magic had its limits and the tree can protect only one”
Q. Where did Mary Margret Blanchard get this unique book of fairy tales? Like Emma said they are not the traditional ones. Could the book have come with one of the cursed?
I don’t like the idea that the tree could be used twice. First because if they could have all just popped through it to the real world and been together well that would have been nice. And second if Geppetto somehow put Pinocchio into the cabinet ahead of Emma, and it would have had to been ahead, and taken the chance that it would not have worked for Emma who is supposed to come back and save the world, that just wouldn’t make Geppetto a very nice guy in my mind.
Also in the newspaper article it would have said baby and seven year old boy found on side of road without parents, but it didn’t say that it said baby found by a seven year old local boy so people knew the seven year old.

I’ve thought that same thing!
We’ve already seen the writers remind us of the limitations of magic several times. So I doubt they would break this rule.
And limitations are important when having magic in a show. And they said that the wardrobe could only be used once and i think i am going to believe that. They are already having some wonky things going on with the magic mirror and how that works.
that’s true.
I don’t recall, but where was it stated that it was a 7-year old who found Emma? Which episode?

Ep 9: True North. Emma was looking at her file.
Thank you for that screen shot. I consider it absolute proof that Pinn is not the 7 year old and also that he didn’t go through the wardrobe at all. Because if he went through the wardrobe right before her 1) it WOULD say “two kids found by roadside” (like hjbau said) and even if it didn’t 2) it would not say that one “local boy” found her.
Perhaps he could get adopted before she came through and become a local boy in that sense but then I think the article would have said something to the effect of “once lost child finds another,” or “Baby Emma turned over to child care system, just like the 7 year old boy that found her was once. Hopefully she’ll be as successful in finding a family” or something. It would definitely mention somehow that they’d both been in the system and they probably would not have used the words ‘local boy’ at all.
Thanks, hjbau, for your response!

I hope that’s not the last time we will see that newspaper, so we can learn more details.
