It is not a multi verse theory though. This is a different individual whose name is also Cinderella.
What I’m saying is that they’re riffing on the multiverse theory, which other shows are doing (very well) right now. I’m not saying they’re doing it RIGHT, because as I said, the same characters with the same names should still have the same face, (like in Arrow, they killed Earth-1 Laurel Lance, who was a goodguy, and now they’ve brought in Earth-2 Laurel Lance, who is played by the same actress, but is a badguy). They’re ripping off the idea that’s been successful for other shows, and attempting their own version, but the logic of their version doesn’t make sense.
Yeah, the reason a multi verse is interesting on a show is because it is the same actor playing a different version like the Laurels or all the characters on Fringe. They are trying to do this, but what they are doing does not make sense, in my opinion. One it isn’t actually a different universe. They are all in the land without magic. Henry drove from Storybrooke where the other Cinderella is to Seattle where his Cinderella is at. The idea that there is another Enchanted Forest 2 out there causes a whole lot of problems. How do they get there if it is actually a different universe and how did they get to the Land Without Magic? It can’t be just the same normal bean way or curse way and it be a multi verse, at least not to me.
I think the writers of this show just don’t care about the complication of doing things like this. You have to keep your timeline and your world building so tight and they cannot do it. They just aren’t doing it right. It is just willy nilly, oh there is magic, we can do anything with magic, it doesn’t have to be consistent with itself or consistent with the rules of the world, it can just be anything.
I have no desire to see a Regina who is not Henry’s mother. I am hoping that she, at least, is our Regina from Storybrooke because Regina has nothing holding her there anyways. I am really hoping they just focus on the new characters, but we know they aren’t because they are wasting the second episode of the season on Hook which the majority of the audience does not want to see.
