It’s late, so mine will be quick, but I did really like this episode. This season has been iffy at best, mostly because it’s been really inconsistent, but this was a really strong episode
LIKED:
– The “psychic.” It was fun to see a psychic-for-hire, and I liked the banter with Ingrid.
– Every moment with Regina. From Evil Queen to loving mother, she was great.
– Snow doing things! Her banter with David was hilariously good, and her kicking the stuffing out of Regina was great. Hopefully, we get more of these moments in 3B.
– Ingrid’s sacrifice. Yes, she did kill herself. However, sacrificing yourself for the greater good of everyone isn’t, in my opinion, straight up suicide. I’m not going to dwell on the touchy aspects of it, but I did think it was a touching moment and a fitting end for Ingrid, since she did get what she wanted.
DISLIKED:
– Ingrid’s sudden reversal. When she touched the stone on the letter, it seemed to indicate that she was given back these memories. However, she never got them taken away. Therefore, I don’t see why she would just be all, “Oh, I now remember my sister’s love that I knew she had for me and was just angry at the moment. Let me go ahead and kill myself now, even if it is a sacrifice for the greater good.” Touching moment, yet caused by a confusing turnaround.
– The attached image should explain it all, if you replace the cat’s head with Rumple’s.
Overall, probably my favorite episode of this half.
Keeper of Thor’s Hammer, Will Scarlet’s Genie Bottle, Emma’s Gun, Emma and Henry’s Moment at the Castle, Cora, and the infamous Family Tree!
