    Is the Wonderland we saw in “Pretty in Blue” a different, new Wonderland than the one we’ve seen before? I assume so for storytelling purposes, but I don’t see any continuity conflicts between the two as of yet that would prevent them from being one in the same realm. They looked different, but could we just be seeing a new part of Wonderland? Thoughts?

    I think that it is a New Wonderland. It is a new Alice. Alice is the same age as Emma, supposedly, even though she doesn’t look it, so the Alice from Once in Wonderland is actually younger then this Alice. Though, you know maybe it had been some years since Regina was defeated. That is what they could pretend even though based on what everyone said, i don’t think that makes a lot of sense.

    No, it couldn’t have been later. Hook and crew were preparing to flee Regina’s Dark Curse when she showed up and said its not happening.

    Though, I didn’t think about it that way till you mentioned it. It’s weird that Alice is the same age as Emma! 😯

    I think it’s a different Wonderland. I suspect that if it was our original WL they’d drop some clever line in about the Queen of Hearts having vanished years ago or something like that.

    It’s weird. In one timeline, Hook is the father of Alice. In another, he’s the lover of the Queen of Hearts.

    But, either way, I’m pretty sure Sophie’s Alice would still exist in Wish Realm, right?

    The writers kept mentioning how this new Enchanted Forest was in “a new book”. So essentially the original Enchanted Forest, and all the other realms we saw back in Seasons 1-6 were all a part of that old book. I’m guessing this Wonderland is a part of the same book as the new Enchanted Forest.

    Since Wish Realm was created in “book 1” (to pick up what Matt’s saying in his post) then I guess so. The Wish Realm still exists in Universe A/book 1–which is where we run into some trouble because somehow WishRealm!Hook managed to not only traverse realms to find Gothel/the tower, but he crossed into an entire other Universe because EF 2.0 is in Universe B/book 2.

    (the same can be said of Henry when he left home to find his story. He jumped into another realm but also into an entirely different universe/book)

    I agree, that it should not actually be any later at all, but who knows what the show will do. The timeline isn’t making a lot of sense.

    Theoretically Sophie’s Alice was like 100 years prior, wasn’t she? So technically, this could be a completely different Alice in the same Wonderland.

    I agree it raises some questions about universe jumping, but the whole Wish Hook thing has already raised all those questions. As well as other fun ones, like “Are there 2 completely different Hooks now in Universe B? Are there 2 completely different Evil Queens in Universe B?”
