Reply To: Who Is Under The Hood?

I’m still inclined to think it’s EQ. 6×2 established that Regina/EQ is an excellent swordswoman. That is like laying a trail you intend you hike.

True, but the other option is that it’s a red herring because A and E love themselves a big ol’ Tweetable twist. Everything is pointing to the EQ: the swordfighting, the S1 feel, Emma realizing that Regina isn’t in her vision and voicing her concern that it’s the EQ under the hood. Which honestly is a big part of what’s making me believe it’s not the EQ. Why the hood? We know she’s our arc villain (at least one of them) so it’s not to stun the audience. The heroes know she’s in town now too so it wouldn’t be a shock to them either.
