It makes me think of the broken dreamcatcher; both the wheel and the dreamcatcher symbolize time in WoT and having both broken indicates something is off and not right with this timeline. Perhaps it’s that OUATiW concept of “not her time” but this time with Bae and not Ana?
I have been thinking about the broken dreamcatcher a lot. I think–now having seen most of the season–it broke when Neal “died” in EF. I would really like to see that thing again.
As aside, but I have loved, LOVED having realHenry back the last couple of episodes. I know he’s my ship’s kid, so I’m kinda biased – but I adore him, so much… have since before I shipped his parents. The grin and bounding into the room to meet his uncle was freaking adorable.
His speech to Regina made me more okay with the whole “white light” thing. He is the combo of all three of his parents. He has Emma’s strength, Regina’s spitfire, and Neal’s spirit.
I will consent, with RG, that after she gives mouth-to-mouth there is “a look” and I did not like it. What’s interesting is that the first time, I took it quite the same way RG did. But upon rewatch, after considering the fact that she was sitting there watching ANOTHER person in her life die in front of her, I think that’s all there was to the look. “Oh, no, it’s happening again.” And after she’d just been so mean to him! But then he coughed up the water and can you blame her for being relieved? Dang, I would not have wanted to attend another WWW-induced funeral, either.
Interesting. It’s like when Hook lays there she sees Neal and thinks “no. This one I have to save somehow. Someone else can’t die because I fail at being the Savior! Oh well. I never liked magic anyway” I mean, she doesn’t even care that she looses what makes Emma Swan EMMA SWAN. I do agree with Slurpeez…Hook took away the thing that made Emma who she is. He robs her of her identity. Now, granted, it wasn’t his fault that Zelena cursed him but he still hid it and lied.
Additionally, the flashing lights upon the Snowflake’s arrival. I think we’ve sufficiently dissected that, but yeah. The Snowflake – confirmed TL baby – flashing lights. Henry – non-canon but implied TL baby – flashing lights. Coincidence? No
AGREED. And I had the same thought. Flickering lights = TL baby
