OMG guys, it’s 5:30AM, insomnia strikes and I just had an epiphany. We’ve been looking at this alllll backwards, or at least, I have not seen anyone say this…It’s not Emma who is Dorothy – it’s Neal!! Why do I say this? What has Neal’s 3B been about so far? Finding his way home to Emma and Henry. In the MGM film, who does Dorothy find her way back to? Aunt Em & Uncle Henry… because THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME!!!…
The only question that leaves for me then is, if Neal is not the heart, as so many have speculated, then who is?
Brilliant! You’re right that is so obvious it was hiding in plain sight. So if Neal is Dorothy then maybe Emma is the tin man.
