So you’re looking forward to this ep a little bit? 😉
I’ve thought that the dagger is what Mr Gold was burying back when Graham ran into him in the woods. Now it seems that August has found it. We don’t know exactly how magic works in Storybrooke, (I’m talking about stuff other than the big curse). Obviously there’s some residual magic, like Regina’s hearts, so it’s probably safe to assume that the power dictating that whoever holds the dagger controls the Dark One would also still be in effect, (which would explain why Mr Gold buried it, so no one could get their grubby lil hands on it), which would be VERY interesting if August now holds the dagger.
I’m still TeamPinocchio. Even people who have seen all the spoilers can’t agree on who he is yet, so I’m REALLY looking forward to having that issue resolved one way or the other. LOL
